Synopsis: Saitama is a hero who only became a hero for fun.

After three years of ‟special training,” he’s become so strong that he’s practically invincible. In fact, he’s too strong—even his mightiest opponents are taken out with a single punch. Alongside Genos, his faithful disciple, Saitama performs his official hero duties as a member of the Hero Association.

One day, monsters claiming to be from the Monster Association suddenly appeared, taking a child of Hero Association executive hostage. The S-class heroes gather and plan a raid on the Monster Association hideout to rescue the hostage. Meanwhile, Garou, a ‟human monster” who was taken by the Monster Association during a battle with the heroes, awakens in the Monster Association hideout.

Based on the original manga created by author ONE and artist Yusuke Murata, serialized on Shueisha’s Tonari no Young Jump site (more than 35 million print copies in circulation), One-Punch Man Season 3 is directed by Shinpei Nagai with series composition by Tomohiro Suzuki; character designs by Chikashi Kubota, Shinjiro Kuroda and Ryosuke Shirakawa; and music by Makoto Miyazaki. The show is produced by studio J.C. Staff.
