One Punch Man: 10 Surprising Facts Fans Need To Know About Fubuki

Though the One Punch Man anime hasn’t delved too deep into her backstory, the manga has much more to teach fans about Fubuki.

Very few anime out there are like One-Punch Man — destroying all the genre tropes, then dancing over their graves and laughing maniacally. The series is absurdism at its finest; in fact, the original version by anonymous author, ONE, looks like its drawn by a five-year-old child.

Of all the wacky characters, Fubuki is the most like Saitama. This is mainly because they are both secretive in nature, even though their reasons for secrecy might be different (one protects her emotion, the other is just forgetful.) There are several things about Fubuki that are not immediately obvious at first glance. Here are a few surprising ones (spoiler warning attached.)

10 Her Sister Gives Her A Complex

Considering the difference in power between the two sisters, Fubuki has always remained in Tatsumaki’s shadow. All she wants for her sister to appreciate her (for once!), but the latter doesn’t think that coddling Fubuki has a higher priority than monster-killing.

She is almost neurotically obsessed with the fact, that her powers are an obvious homage to Tatsumaki’s. For instance, both their abilities are identical, but Fubuki’s whirlwind is a considerably weaker version of Tasumaki’s psychokinetic tornado. This inferiority complex forces Fubuki to maintain an emotional distance from her sister.

9 She Used To Be Self-Conscious

As an adult, Fubuki is well-equipped to destroy any perv who dares to ogle at/comment on her large breasts. However, it has been revealed that when she was in high school, she was extremely embarrassed by her body, in part because of her braces, but mostly due to her advanced physical development.

In fact, creepy old men used to leer at her constantly, irrespective of whatever clothing she was wearing at the time — a fact made doubly worse by her underage status. Apparently Fubuki was so conscious of her breasts, that she used to stand with her back arched downwards in order to draw less attention.

8 She Protects Others With Her Life

Fubuki plays a cold-hearted character, choosing oxymoronic names like Blizzard of Hell to prove to everyone how dark and emo she is. But when it comes to a fight, she is willing to sacrifice herself to defeat her enemy (if her life can save others in the process.)

When Overgrown Rover destroys Silver Fang and Bomb’s headquarters with an energy blast, the pair of brothers are unscathed because Fubuki’s shield protects them. She says that she will help them escape by activating a second barrier, even though it might kill her. Thankfully, neither sibling requires any assistance in the matter.

7 Her Popularity Ranking Is Surprisingly High

Fubuki has shown herself to be one of the most popular characters in the entire series. The most recent official character poll placed her second, obtaining 8390 votes. Saitama, who is obviously in first place, received 8650 votes, only barely managing to win. Speed-o’-Sound Sonic languishes in third place, with 6586 votes.

Fubuki’s massive fan-following came as a total surprise, mostly because the manga (not the webcomic by ONE) didn’t feature her much when the poll was taken.

6 She Is Already An A-Class Hero

Genos informs Fubuki that her techniques are refined enough to obtain a place in A-Class. She counters his assumption, with a smug overconfidence, saying that she could easily reach S-Class if only it weren’t for Amai Mask’s annoying habit of monitoring power levels.

Fubuki’s psychokinesis is unique among espers, as she can control the direction of propagation. In other words, she can curve her techniques within the limits spacetime, allowing her to repel attacks even from Dragon-level opponents.

5 Saitama Helped Her Become Confident

The main reason Fubuki has established a mini-kingdom for B-class superheroes is that she wants to eclipse Tatsumaki through sheer numbers, if not actual power. Her minions are blindly devoted to her, and she responds in kind (encouraging them to win their own fights without her help.)

However, Fubuki still maintained some amount of resentfulness towards the strongest heroes, until Saitama enters her life. Through his weird moralizing, she comes to realize that her lack of self-esteem has no rational grounding, and resolves to fight her way into A-class.

4 She Can Now Create Psychic Whirlwinds

Fubuki’s psychokinetic techniques allow her to fly and fling random objects around herself, creating elegant swirling patterns. Her favorite move is the Hell Storm, which employs the destructive effect of both wind and heavy rocks. However, Fubuki has recently unlocked the Nen-ryu Kaiten Arashi, or Psychic Whirlwind.

This ability is largely for defense, as it creates an AOE within which more powerful espers are unable to use their own techniques. This is exemplified in her battle with Psykos, one of the main villains of the Monster Association Arc.

3 Tatsumaki Is Older Than Her

Although it clearly looks like the opposite, with Tatsumaki resembling a primary school child while Fubuki looks like a full-grown woman — the Tornado of Terror is actually half a decade older than the Blizzard of Hell.

This has resulted in problems, as Tatsumaki’s worst fear is being considered a child (Fubuki doesn’t really care so much.) For instance, when Genos admonishes Tatsumaki for acting like a “spoiled brat”, she shoves him through a wall. At the same time, she insults her Fubuki in the exact same ageist manner.

2 She Was Best Friends With Psykos

Psykos is enormously powerful, being the person behind Orochi’s transformation — through bizarre experiments involving cell biology, cannibalism and even a few torture methods thrown in. It is later revealed that Psykos and Fubuki were great friends in the past, given they went to the same school.

However, as Psykos’ ambition was to destroy the human race (via explosive premonitions), Fubuki chose to stopper her friend’s powers as a safeguard. Ultimately, this does not work, and Fubuki is left regretful that she was not successful in preventing Psykos from going down her dark path.

1 She Is A Member Of The Saitama Group

The first time Fubuki goes over to Saitama’s house, she finds him hanging out with S-Class heroes like King, Silver Fang and Genos. She is stunned that a lowly B-classer has such powerful friends, but quickly realizes that strong forces seem to be drawn towards him.

Therefore, she slyly incorporates herself into the gang, unofficially known as the Saitama Group. In one instance, Fubuki tries to absorb the group into her own Blizzard organization, challenging them to a video game battle. Luckily, King manages to win the whole thing by himself, leaving Fubuki irate.
