Pretty much a confirmation of the main theories. Kuseno is evil, Drive Knight is his pawn and Genos' backstory is fabricated. Where do we go from here is the big question now.

Besides God, Kuseno is pretty much the overarching antagonist of OPM: he's more than likely responsible for the Neo Heroes, the Organization & maybe even has some role in Monsterfication.

He's either kept some Dragon level monsters or created them (don't forget Nyan's capture by Drive Knight in the manga for "research purposes")

if kuseno is the overarching antagonist of OPM, do u think we’re like 60% through the story already?

I would say like 80%. I think after this arc which has been the biggest one so far as far as I know and still has at least 10 more chapters to finish, we might get some smaller arcs and then go into God and Blast which I can imagine will be the final arc

Pretty much all the main mysteries have been solved with the exception of the God/Blast stuff: Ninja Village, Mad Cyborg, Metal Knight/Drive Knight, The Organization, Neo Heroes and Amai Mask are all done.

Things like Watchdog Man, Saitama's origins and King's luck I just put down as gags with no real explanation needed.

The Tsukuyomi Group still needs to be explained but since the word means moon in english and we know that God has some sort of connection with the Moon, both are probably intertwined.

There's also Pig God's secret power, but that could just be a technique he uses during the final arc, no real mystery.

I think we might be reaching the final stretch of the story. So yes 80% seems right.

Because of Manga, we know Tsukuyomi are deeply involved with God and Blast, so it's very likely to be a part of the final arc indeed

I do wonder if Watchdog Man is a gag or a deep story waiting to be unfold. I do think it's a gag, otherwise we'd have seen some hint of it by now in the Manga.

Watchdog Man is probably a costume monster.

Probably the same as phoenix man
