The second season was announced in 2016, but the first episode was released later in 2019. However, an announcement was made in September 2017, stating that the second season was having a change in the studio as well as the director.

What to expect in One Punch Man season 3?

Given that the previous two seasons had only 12 episodes, it’s highly likely that this season will also follow the same. The first season covered about 41 chapters, and the second season covered about 43 chapters. The upcoming season will continue the Monsters Association arc starting with chapter 85, but it will not conclude there. This is because the latest chapter has ended with the aforementioned arc, and the third season will not adapt 87 chapters unless it features 24 episodes.

The main focus of this season will be Garou. The monsters from the Monsters Association wreak havoc and the heroes plan on invading their hideout as well. Some of the heroes who were introduced earlier will be receiving some screen time to display their powers. That being said, other heroes like Zombieman will also be introduced this season. The leader of the Monsters Association, Orochi, will also make his debut in the upcoming season.

It’s highly likely that One Punch Man season 3 will end with adapting chapter 138. This is because the unknown entity, God, will be introduced in the series. This will give the series a perfect opportunity to have a better conclusion compared to season 2 and end it with a major cliffhanger. Assuming the series decides to adapt the entirety of Monsters Association arc and have 24 episodes, it will feature a ton of fights, including Garou vs Bang and Garou vs Saitama.
