The video features Daisuke Namikawa, who plays Dr. Genus who narrates the trailer. The video showcases Hero Hunter, Garou. 

The background voice-over explains the concept of a limiter, how it is necessary for an organism, and how Saitama overcame his limits without being significantly talented or unique. 

The end shot features Garou as he seems to be getting ready to fight the ultimate battle with Saitama.

Season 3 will adapt the manga’s ‘Monster Association arc.’ It is one of the most epic arcs in the story, and it is nearly a hundred chapters. It will be fantastic to see the arc finally receive an adaptation. 

Furthermore, the “Hero Visual Project” started on March 1, 2024. In this project, new visuals of heroes will be announced every month. The first installment features a visual of Saitama drawn by Shirakawa. 

The staff members are returning for the new season, and here is the list. J.C. Staff is returning from the second season to animate the series.

While fans are excited about the new season, they are also unsure about the production company. While the first season was terrific, the second did not stand out. 

Fans are not pleased with the JC Staff. However, their feelings might be misguided as the trailer already stands out. The company has had time to rectify its mistakes, so we can only hope for the best. Additionally, the second season left us on a cliffhanger, and it will be interesting to see where the story goes.

About One Punch Man

One-Punch Man is a Japanese superhero webcomic created by the artist One in early 2009. It has a manga adaptation illustrated by Yusuke Murata, as well as an anime adaptation. Following its publication, the webcomic quickly went viral, surpassing 7.9 million hits in June 2012.

On an unnamed Earth-like supercontinent planet, powerful monsters and villains have been wreaking havoc in the cities. To combat them, the world’s government created a Hero Association that employs superheroes to stop them. The heroes are ranked from Class C to Class S.

Saitama, an unassociated hero, hails from the metropolis of City-Z and performs heroic deeds for his own entertainment. He has trained himself to the point where he broke his “limit” and can effortlessly defeat any opponent with a single punch while slaying monsters the same way. But he is now bored with his omnipotence and frustrated by sensing he lacks a challenge.
