One Punch Man confirms season 3 release date - and it's very soon
Everyone's favourite superhero anime will return this year!
Great news for One Punch Man fans – the wait for season 3 is almost over.
A new announcement from Crunchyroll confirmed One Punch Man season 3 will premiere on Sunday 5th October 2025. That means fans only have one month left before their favourite superhero anime returns.
The season is set to begin with a recap of season 2, before continuing the story adapted from the One Punch Man webcomic. The theme for this season is "Strongest vs. Scariest," setting up another epic battle as we continue the Monster Association arc.
As well as the release date announcement, we were also gifted with a teaser trailer.
Unfortunately, it's only 15-seconds long, but it does give us a glimpse into what's to come.
One Punch Man's third season will be directed by Shinpei Nagai, whose last big project was the series <DOGEZA>I Tried Asking While Kowtowing.
Fans have had to wait a while between seasons of One Punch Man, with season 1 arriving in 2015, followed by season 2 in 2019. However, this slow release schedule doesn't seem to have harmed the show's popularity, winning over international audiences with its self-explanatory superhero comedy concept.
One Punch Man is available to watch on Crunchyroll in the UK.
