This sequel has been a long time coming. Finally, our one-hit wonder is back with more… Well, adventures. If you can call them that. It remains to be seen whether Saitama will ever find a foe worthy of his overwhelming power. Meanwhile, chaos erupts across the world as monsters suddenly begin emerging from the ground. The Monster Association has declared war! In the previous season, many heroes of the Hero Association fell victim to these terrifying creatures. What role will Saitama play in this new conflict?
After receiving aid from the Monster Association, Garou manages to escape Bang, Genos, and several other notable heroes. The Association’s official declaration of war, along with their three-day ultimatum, has thrown the Hero Association into a panic. The S-Class hero Child Emperor is desperately searching for the monsters’ hideout, which has been narrowed down to an abandoned area in City Z. Tatsumaki suggests using her immense psychic power to obliterate the entire zone, but the existence of a hostage, the son of a high-ranking Hero Association member, forces the team to prioritize a rescue mission instead.
Meanwhile, Saitama and his fellow S-Class heroes are relaxing in his apartment when Fubuki suddenly bursts in. She briefs them on the recent surge of monster activity, and the group begins to suspect that Garou might be working alongside the monsters. Determined to uncover the truth, Saitama sets out to find him.
Elsewhere, Garou awakens to find himself bandaged and recovering after barely surviving his previous battle. Judging by his surroundings, he is deep within the Monster Association’s underground lair. While exploring, he encounters a group of humans under the mercy of a one-eyed monster. The victims, equipped with personalized power armor, are quickly subdued and transformed into pawns by another monster clad in a rather revealing outfit. It is then that Garou steps forward, revealing himself to the crowd. Impressed, the monsters invite him to join their leadership, claiming that even a lone wolf needs a pack.
Will Garou accept their offer? And can Saitama and his allies put an end to the Monster Association’s rampage? Find out in One Punch Man Season Three, now streaming on Muse Asia’s official YouTube channel!
Saitama
Saitama is the titular hero of the anime. Because of his intense (and somewhat questionable) training regimen, he has gone completely bald. In exchange, he gained immeasurable strength, allowing him to defeat even the most powerful foes with little to no effort. However, despite his unmatched power, he struggles to earn proper recognition and currently holds the rank of B-Class hero under the moniker “Caped Baldy.”
Genos
Genos is a human–cyborg hybrid whose dark and tragic past drives him on a relentless quest for vengeance against a mysterious enemy. After nearly being destroyed and then casually rescued by Saitama, he resolves to become the hero’s devoted disciple. Intelligent, disciplined, and fiercely determined, Genos quickly rises through the ranks, earning the title of S-Class hero, despite his master remaining in a much lower class.
King
King, a renowned S-Class hero, has recently befriended Saitama after the latter uncovers his secret—he isn’t nearly as strong as everyone believes. In truth, King possesses no real combat ability. What others mistake for his “ultimate move,” the King Engine, is merely the sound of his heart pounding from fear. Since then, he’s stuck close to Saitama, bonding with him over their shared love of video games.
Silverfang
Bang is an S-Class hero and a legendary martial artist. He once trained Garou before expelling him from his dojo. Despite his age, Bang’s combat skills remain exceptional. Using his signature technique, the Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist, he can take on nearly any opponent. He is often accompanied by his older brother, Bomb, who, though not a professional hero, is also an incredibly skilled martial artist.
Garou
Garou, known as the “Human Monster,” has made it his mission to hunt down heroes. Once a disciple of Bang, he trained in martial arts before being expelled for his violent rampage. Now branded the Hero Hunter, Garou is on the run and reluctantly allied with the Monster Association after they helped him escape. As he recovers, he seeks to grow stronger to challenge both the Hero Association and, ultimately, Saitama’s group.
