One-Punch Man Season 3 is officially happening, almost three years after the second season wrapped its run on the small screen.

As reported by Crunchyroll, the official website for the One-Punch Man TV anime confirmed on Thursday that a third season of the hit show will be going into production. A key visual drawn by character designerChikashi Kubota was posted alongside the announcement. The artwork features Saitama and Garou, but it doesn't offer any teasers of what will actually evolve in the upcoming season.

Created by Japanese artist ONE, One-Punch Man tells the story of Saitama, a powerful superhero with the ability to defeat any opponent with a single punch. Bored by his flawless battle record, Saitama embarks on a quest to find an opponent who can actually challenge him. The series originally debuted as a webcomic in 2009 before transitioning to the magazine Shueisha's Young Jump Next in 2012.

The manga has already been adapted into a popular anime series and multiple video games, including the recent One-Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows. The second season of the popular anime series premiered back in 2019, laying the groundwork for another round of exciting fights, terrifying villains, and more Genos and Saitama adventures, with some bad-ass action scenes to boot.

One Punch Man's upcoming third season is being developed alongside a live-action film adaptation, which will be written by Venom's Scott Rosenberg and Jeff Pinker, with former Fast X director Justin Lin slated to direct. This movie joins several other live-action anime adaptations, including a Netflix series based on One Piece, the perpetually troubled Akira remake, and a reimagined version of Your Name.

Best New Anime to Watch (Summer Season 2022)

The futuristic Night City, an overpowered demon lord, and a world-ending biscuit are just some of what you can expect this summer anime season. There's a new season full of anime to check out this Summer like Studio Trigger's Cyberpunk Edgerunners, the dark Made in Abyss Season, and part 2 of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean. We're also seeing the return of The Devil is a Part-Timer! after almost a decade. Across Crunchyroll, HIDIVE, and Netflix, as well as others, there are a lot of places to enjoy anime at the moment.Lucifer and the Biscuit Hammer<p> We weren’t kidding about the world-ending biscuit. Lucifer and the Biscuit Hammer follows Amamiya, a student who is visited by a talking lizard asking him to help save the world. Amamiya starts to gain mysterious powers and is met by another powered person who happens to be a princess. The two join forces in hopes of destroying the gigantic biscuit hammer that hovers over the world. Lucifer and the Biscuit Hammer has been a hilarious and weird ride right out the gate. We’re looking forward to seeing what else this kooky series has to offer as the season goes on. Lucifer and the Biscuit Hammer is available on Crunchyroll, VRV, and Hulu. View 56 ImagesThe Devil is a Part-Timer! Season 2<p> Speaking of Lucifer, The Devil is a Part-Timer! is back after almost a decade since season one was released. The series follows Satan, a demon lord who flees his world and ends up in modern-day Tokyo with one of his underlings. Having lost a major battle, Satan or Maou, as he likes to be called now, has chosen to rebuild his empire by starting a job at a fast food chain. Maou soon finds out that there are more beings from his world that followed him to Tokyo. The Devil is a Part-Timer has a surprising amount of action for a ridiculous comedy series. If you enjoy Miss Koboyashi’s Dragon Maid, you might like this series too. The Devil is a Part-Timer Season 2 is now available on Crunchyroll, Hulu, and Funimation. Classroom of the Elite Season 2<p> Classroom of the Elite is another series that we haven’t seen in a long time. It’s been about 5 years since season 1 and the series continues to follow a lowly ranked first-year class in a merit-based school. This special school has students living on campus, and the only way to buy anything is to use points that are mysteriously given to each student every month. What seems like a typical slice of life turns dramatic as the students learn more about the school and their classmates. This series really escalates so it’ll be interesting to see how season 2 pans out for our now experienced first-year class. Classroom of the Elite Season 2 is available now on Crunchyroll and VRV. Cyberpunk: Edgerunners<p> The long-anticipated Cyberpunk Edgerunners is almost here! From the world of Cyberpunk 2077, this series follows a street kid who relies on seedy outlaw jobs to survive in Night City. Studio Trigger is behind the anime and based on the trailers and opening that we’ve seen so far, it’s going to be a wild and beautifully animated series. Also to get Franz Ferdinand in the opening credits is just icing on the cake. We’ve seen enough and can’t wait to check out Cyberpunk Edgerunners when it releases in September on Netflix. Made in Abyss: The Golden City of the Scorching Sun<p> Made in Abyss is back with season 2, The Golden City of the Scorching Sun. The series follows Riko, an orphaned girl, who lives in a town surrounding the Abyss, a huge hole that goes deep into the planet. She soon meets Reg, a boy-looking robot, and seeks to venture into the Abyss to find her mother. The series seems playful at first but it can be very dark with the dangerous mysteries below. Like Demon Slayer, Made in Abyss has a canonical movie between seasons 1 and 2. If you want to be caught up before going into season 2, watch Dawn of the Deep Soul. Both Made in Abyss Season 2 and Dawn of the Deep Soul are available now on HIDIVE.
