• Tatsumaki served Josen homemade egg and ham sandwiches, and he praised her cooking before washing up.

Josen oversaw the rapid construction of New Z City with Saitama, Black Sperm, and Dr. Genus, then invited Saitama to stay in his capsule villa.

• Josen found two useful SR items, but Infinity Power rejected the luck effect of Barney's Lucky Ring, and Superman's Black-Rimmed Glasses changed how he looked.

• Josen revealed his final SSR, Mjolnir, and decided it was little more than another accessory for him.
