The second character visual for One-Punch Man Season 3 has been released, and it delivers the S-Class hero King as drawn by co-character designer Ryosuke Shirakawa.
The previous character visual, featuring Saitama, was released in February alongside the anime’s main staff announcement.
One-Punch Man is based on the Shueisha-published manga drawn by Yuusuke Murata and serialized on Tonari no Young Jump. The manga began in 2012 and has been collected into 30 volumes as of March 4, 2024. Viz Media describes the plot as:
Every time a promising villain appears, Saitama beats the snot out of ’em with one punch! Can he finally find an opponent who can go toe-to-toe with him and give his life some meaning? Or is he doomed to a life of superpowered boredom?
The first anime season aired in 2015. It was directed by Shingo Natsume and produced by Madhouse. The second season, produced by J.C.STAFF, aired in 2019 and was directed by Chikara Sakurai.
One-Punch Man was first created as a self-published web manga by ONE in 2009.
