A New Look at Season 3
Fans of Saitama’s overpowered antics have plenty to celebrate as One Punch Man Season 3 has dropped a fresh trailer ahead of its October 5 premiere. The trailer highlights intense battles, stunning animation, and the beginning of the Hero Hunter Garo storyline, setting the stage for one of the series’ most thrilling arcs yet.
Theme Songs Bring Familiar Faces
JAM Project, who famously performed the anime’s earlier openings, is returning to perform the new opening theme song, while Makoto Furukawa, the voice of Saitama, will lend his voice to the ending theme. The combination of JAM Project’s explosive energy and Furukawa’s personal touch makes the soundtrack a major highlight of the upcoming season.
Production Team and Staff
The series is directed by Shinpei Nagai, with Tomohiro Suzuki handling series composition. Character design is shared by Chikashi Kubota, Shinjiro Kuroda, and Ryosuke Shirakawa, while Makoto Miyazaki returns to compose the music. With this lineup of staff, fans can expect a season that balances impactful visuals with high-energy storytelling.
From Webcomic to Worldwide Phenomenon
Created by ONE, One Punch Man started as a humble webcomic in 2009 before receiving a manga remake illustrated by Yusuke Murata in 2012. The anime adaptation first exploded onto screens in 2015 with Studio MADHOUSE’s acclaimed first season, followed by J.C. Staff’s second season in 2019. The third season was announced in August 2024, and excitement has only grown since then.
What to Expect in Season 3
The upcoming season will focus on the Hero Hunter arc, centering on the fearsome Garo as he battles heroes across the association. Meanwhile, Saitama continues to grapple with the irony of being the strongest man alive yet constantly underestimated. Expect jaw-dropping fights, sharp humor, and the return of fan-favorite heroes and villains in what promises to be the biggest season yet.
Where to Watch
One Punch Man Season 3 premieres in Japan on October 5 and will be simulcast internationally, giving fans around the world the chance to follow Saitama’s story as it unfolds.
