Time for the King laser to put that homeless emperor in his place.

While King is right up there in heroism with Mumen rider, I'm kind of wondering if he has an actual power he doesn't realize. Like people being overly intimidated and King lucking his way out is an actual super power and not coincidence. It reminds me of the Xanth series Bink character. He was a dude thought to not have magical powers, but his magical power was actually being immune to magic. It wasn't obvious then, anytime he was attacked with magic a seemingly random event would occur to protect him from harm, to the point where the current monarch of Xanth dies so that Binks attacker loses his reason to kill Bink.

I think this is a very valid theory, and its shared by a large proportion of the OPM community. On the surface it looks like everything surrounding King is just a gag, but it seems pretty likely that King's actual S class-level power is some combination of ultra charisma, luck and maybe even some kind of reality-bending aura that makes everything fall into place for him, makes him unconsciously able to say and do the exact right things, and summon strong people to fight for him.

King's gag is way funnier if you just treat it as a gag and not as a superpower, so please, just treat it as a gag.

We also have Reigen in Mob demonstrating that you can totally do this without any weird probability manipulation powers, so there's no need to come up with some other excuse.

If King's power is being Domino then it makes him surving getting maimed by a monster only to get a cool scar that makes him look intimidating less cool. So I'd say we should definitely follow on the same track as everyone else does when Saitama tells people how he got so strong.

King is actually a monster, he played so many anime video games and always won that he became an anime that always wins

King is King, the strongest hero, but strength takes many forms In his case it's a PR department he didn't ask for, doesn't want, and is afraid to try to get rid of

I very much hope that heroes like King and Watchdog Man are never explained because yes, it would ruin the gag.

"king has a superpower that makes him intimidating" kinda misses the point of his character and destroys all nuance around it. I refuse to elaborate

King having a secret superpower is just as lame as Saitama having a secret superpower. It would genuinely eliminate the gags of either character.

King is actually super powerful because he's full of midichlorians.

Sadly, I think King is the only one who's safe from months of explanation. I'm betting we're going to get a dozen chapters on Child Emporer, Metal Bat, Atomic Samurai, and Watchdog Man's growth to S-Class at some point.
