Choze is a martial artist and minor antagonist from the One-Punch Man manga (Murata version), known as a user of the “Selective Bloodline Martial Arts” style and later as a human-turned-monster with strong eugenic beliefs.
Choze participates in the 22nd Super Fight tournament.
He appears as a tall, muscular man in a bright red tight suit, with bulging, manic eyes that give him an unhinged look.
He practices a unique style he calls Selective Bloodline Martial Arts, which he claims is optimized by generations of genetic selection.
His name comes from the English verb “to choose,” reflecting his obsession with “chosen bloodlines.”
Choze is extremely arrogant and elitist.
He looks down on other fighters and repeatedly refers to the audience as “rabble” or “inferior masses,” clearly believing himself part of a superior species.
He participates in the tournament to showcase the supposed superiority of his “new humanity” bloodline.
Despite his boasting, he is effortlessly knocked out by Saitama in their match and eliminated in the third round.
Choze is voiced by Kentaro Tone in adaptations that feature him.
Choze has a deeply elitist and supremacist worldview.
He believes only those with “superior genes” deserve to rule, and everyone else is fit only to be trampled or culled.
He is a sadist who prefers to torture his opponents slowly instead of finishing them with a single blow.
Part of this is showmanship: he wants to use every match as a stage to demonstrate that he is on a completely different level than fighters like Suiryu.
Before facing Saitama, he claims his clan has selectively bred “excellent genes” for generations.
He proudly calls himself the greatest masterpiece of this bloodline and insists he is a new species entirely different from “inferior humans.”
Even among other arrogant characters in One-Punch Man, his contempt for regular people stands out.
He dismisses all other participants and the entire audience as “inferior species,” treating them as livestock or disposable test subjects for his ideology.
After turning into a monster, his human morals vanish completely, but his arrogance and cold, analytical mindset remain.
Unlike some other newly transformed monsters who become wildly unstable, Choze stays disturbingly calm while planning mass slaughter of “inferior species.”
Choze comes from a clan that used genetic manipulation and selective breeding to surpass ordinary humans.
