The overpowered main character, a bored mundane ex-salaryman bald dude, is a super-hero for a hobby, fighting monstrous villains who want to kill everybody for no reason in hilarious battles of epic scale. Being so OP he destroys them with just one single punch, having nothing to fear, and bored out of his mind, he longs for an enemy that can give him some thrill in a fight.
A mix of Overlord and Saiki Kusuo no Psi-Nan, with more battles and less plot.

12 episode slice adaptation of a partial well-drawn manga adaptation of a badly-drawn web-comic.
10/10★ - A blast, glorious to watch.
Strength: all the hype and OP-ness you love in a battle MC, without the exhausting, gradual power-ups and training.
Besides epic and hilarious, with superb animation and battles created by combining various artists' techniques, it provides a clever down-to-earth perspective of the most powerful man's tedium and shortcomings.
Everybody loves epic battles. Those times the badass MC shows the smug two-bit villains who's the real boss here. But for most anime, this involves a lot schemes being plotted, a lot of evil hiding, a lot of, honestly not that interesting story arcs. All of this in the way of that sweet pay off. One Punch Man goes straight to what you want, and delivers it gloriously.
The perfect contrast between the pretentiousness of ridiculously powerful villains and the absolute mundanity of the far more powerful main character is hilarious every time. Unshaken by the enemy's strength, he nonchalantly jabs the inappropriateness of world-conquering wrong-doers.
The artwork is simply spectacular, the amazing choreography and constant back-forth between punch and joke will keep your eyes glued on the screen. All characters have unique designs and names. Although the overarching plot isn't the strength of the series, each arc has value, not being mindlessly repetitive, instead adding something to the story.

Details
An action-packed anime with lots of satisfying punches, set in modern day Japan...-like somewhere where cities are called Z-city, A-City, B-City, etc.
The gender-ratio is tilted toward ridiculously muscular men carrying 10-packs. Although there are some important female characters, the series doesn't focus on romantic developments. It's not ecchi, but some character designs are rather risqué.
There's gratuitous violence everywhere, including gruesome displays of bodies bursting and internal organs getting blasted away by punches, tons of blood, and robot-gore. These are mostly for comedic effect; there aren't serious scenes of violence or torture in the series, but they can be briefly disgusting.
