Will There Be a ‘One-Punch Man’ Season 3?

Earlier this week, anime fans flocked to Hulu hoping to find One-Punch Man Season 2, Episode 13 only to discover that there was no new episode. The reason? After 12 weeks of action, One-Punch Man Season 2 has officially concluded. D’oh!

If you have yet to embrace this immensely popular series, catching up on all the action couldn’t be easier. Not only is every episode of One-Punch Man currently streaming on Hulu, but Season 1 is also available to watch on both Netflix and Tubi. But what about Season 3? Where is One-Punch Man Episode 25? When can we expect to see One-Punch Man Season 3?

Here’s everything we know!

WHEN WILL ONE PUNCH MAN EPISODE 25 AIR? IS ONE PUNCH MAN DELAYED?

Sorry, fans. One-Punch Man Season 2 is over. Just like Season 1, the second season only consisted of 12 episodes, meaning there won’t be a One Punch Man Season 2, Episode 13.

WAIT, SO THERE’S NO NEW ONE PUNCH MAN THIS WEEK?

Yep. Unfortunately, there won’t be any new episodes of One-Punch Man for quite a while.

WILL THERE BE A ONE PUNCH MAN SEASON 3?

No official announcement has been made regarding One-Punch Man Season 3, but considering the popularity of the show, we’d be shocked if the series didn’t return for a third season.

The case for a Season 3 is bolstered by a tweet sent out by One-Punch Man’s official Twitter page. Comicbook.com reports that the tweet states that “the 2nd round is concluded, yet One-Punch is not over, we will do our best to deliver the anime again!”

WHEN’S THE ONE PUNCH MAN SEASON 3 RELEASE DATE?

As we stated above, there’s no official announcement regarding One-Punch Man Season 3, but let’s assume the popular anime series receives a Season 3 renewal. One-Punch Man Season 1 concluded on October 8, 2016 and Season 2 didn’t premiere until April 9, 2019. That’s an incredibly long delay between new episodes. The gap was a result of the show undergoing a series of creative substitutions, as One-Punch Man had a new director (Chikara Sakurai) and animation studio (J.C. Staff) for Season 2.

Considering the potential behind the scenes changes as well as the fact that One-Punch Man is based on a webcomic, it’s difficult to predict a Season 3 release date. We did find a One-Punch Man Season 3 countdown clock that lists May 12, 2020 as the premiere date, but that seems a little optimistic to us. Based on past trends, we think a 2021 release date is more likely.

Decider will update this story as it develops.
