One Punch Man Season 3 Synopsis:
“The story follows Saitama, who started out being a hero just for fun. After three years of “special” training, he became so powerful that he can now defeat opponents with a single punch.
Now, alongside Genos, his faithful cyborg disciple, Saitama is ready to begin his official duties as a professional hero working with the Hero Association.
However, the frequency of monster appearances is surging, and it increasingly appears that the Great Seer Madame Shibabawa’s prediction about the Earth’s doom is coming true. Amid this crisis, the “hero hunter” Garou makes his own appearance as he challenges the heroes and fights them!”
The first two seasons of One Punch Man covered the first 85 chapters, and the last few episodes of season 2 covered the beginning of the Monster Association Arc.
Over 200 manga chapters have been released so far at the time of writing this, and there is no prediction that the manga will end anytime soon. Expecting season 3 to cover the remaining chapters, starting from chapter 86, would be a lot. Besides, judging from the number of episodes of the first two seasons, the coming season might have 12 episodes as well.
Conclusion
It’s undoubtedly good news for Saitama fans worldwide that their favorite anime will be released in 2025. However, we still don’t know the exact release date, so don’t expect it to be released in January!
I will update this article as soon as we hear more about the status of the third season. So, let’s hope that One Punch Man Season 3 delivers on the fans’ hope!
