One Punch Man’s latest mobile game has the cringiest advert possible
One Punch Man: The Strongest is our right now on mobile, for those who didn’t know. If you weren’t aware of One Punch Man’s latest mobile game, that’s a shame. As far as gacha games go, it’s okay… as long as you have access to codes and tier lists.
