Genos is one of the main protagonists of the One-Punch Man series. He appeared in the 123rd episode of DEATH BATTLE!, Genos VS War Machine, where he fought against War Machine from Marvel Comics.
History
At age 15, Genos was a human boy living a happy and peaceful life with his family. One day, a crazy cyborg attacked his town, destroying it and killing his family. Genos miraculously survived, but would not have survived long on his own had he not been found by Dr. Kuseno, who was passing through the town in pursuit of the cyborg. Genos begged Dr. Kuseno to transform him into a cyborg, and the scientist complied. Genos was reborn as a cyborg fighting for justice and promised Dr. Kuseno that one day he would find and destroy the cyborg.
For the next four years, Genos traveled from town to town defeating monsters and evil organizations, but was unable to find the whereabouts of the cyborg.
