Hello!!!!
For the users of this site who are fans of both One Punch Man and My Hero Academia, how would you guys compare the way the organisations mentioned above are managed/operated?

IIRC, both do the same thing but are managed very differently. OPM is funded by charity/the public BUT encompasses the world whereas in MHA its a government body that only encompasses a country. Both require licences for heroes to be officially recognised.

OPM has weird issues with the hero association appearing incompetent (but justified with how bat shit crazy things have become). They're also ran by the top brass heroes. Was founded fairly recently which sort of excuses them, but still kind of annoying seeing their base get wrecked over and over, infighting, egos vs egos when their world is on the line, etc.

MHA is much more established and is solely ran by people without quirks to reduce corruption/conflict in interests between heroes and regular citizens.

OPM encourages heroes to actively save people, considering they're publicly funded. A bad relationship/failure to help = bad return and distrust. Also, OPM has a rather simple test to become a hero.

MHA actually fosters heroes. In that regard it's significantly better since aspiring heroes will be given a chance to grow before they're sent out, rather than grab a licence straight away and potentially get bodied in their first fight.

As much as I love OPM's HA for some reason (because it looks cool), MHA's commission is much better for heroes in my opinion.

Please dismiss this if I'm totally wrong though. I could be misremembering things.

Hero Association in OPM is like those in Marvel and DC since Hero is rare and highly valued. they're just another organisations

Public Safety commission in MHA is far better build than that. They're handling "public safety", not just the heroes.

Public safety commission Handles hundreds of Hero Agencies, which is a equivalent of "Hero association" in OPM as every hero agencies handles multiple heroes.

MHA is more responsible and organized. Heroes have a specific job to play, and they even focus on rescuing civilians and evacuation, which is the number one priority out of everything else.

In OPM, heroes are not organized at all. I don't think any of them are responsible as they are controlled by their egos. They take a job if and only if, they feel like it, as shown in the Boros invasion.

Fuck Hero association. I never managed to continue watching MHA, but no organisation can be worse that Hero association.

MHA is the better system, but it is painted fairly unrealisticly (because the target audience is younger).

Consider instead it is run like the public school system and DMV. If All for One was actually cunning, given his immortality, he would just corrupt government funding bodies to the point that hero training and funding is poorly handled over the course of a hundred years and some change. Then when the system is weak, take over.

It's also silly to think that the best place to start world domination are first world coubtries. Start your takeover by corrupting and infiltrating easier but still powerful places like Russia, Egypt, Turkey, and use those countries as a base of operations to stage and manipulate from. (Oh Japan and your naive view of peace and trust in government).

I do not know if that is actually the case here. Can someone confirm if this is the case.
Public Safety commission in MHA is far better build than that. They're handling "public safety", not just the heroes.
The Hero Association is also involved in public safety, but their primary focus is aiding heroes.
Guild Adventure (OPM) vs City Guard (MHA) with monster and criminal and thief in city setting.
That is an interesting way to put it.
Start your takeover by corrupting and infiltrating easier but still powerful places like Russia, Egypt, Turkey, and use those countries as a base of operations to stage and manipulate from.
That really makes sense. It would be interesting if that were to happen in the story(but it will not for the reason you mentioned in the first sentence of your post, @Tyranomaster).
