There are a total of 390 heroes in this class, with Mumen Rider as the highest-ranked hero. He is followed by Monster Roper Shell, Tanktop Tiger, D-Pad, and Funeral Suspenders.
Unknown Class and Unregistered Heroes
The unknown class is made up of heroes whose rank and class are not revealed. It is not sure if their specific ranks will be disclosed eventually, but for now, there are 12 heroes under this group: Custom Hero, Gunma, and Pandaman, just to name a few.
Unregistered heroes, on the other hand, are heroes who do not receive credit for their work. They are not mentioned in any media as well.
Saitama and Genos used to do unregistered hero work before they joined the Hero Association.
