A sixth new hero visual has been released for the upcoming third season of One-Punch Man, which features the powerful Terrible Tornado (also known as Tatsumaki in Japanese). It has not yet been announced when the third season will air.
Previous Hero visuals were recently released for Saitama, King, Genos, Fubuki/Hellish Blizzard, and Silver Fang.
The production staff for season three of One-Punch Man features some returning staff from season two such as Tomohiro Suzuki (returning) as screenwriter, Chikashi Kubota (returning), Shinjiro Kuroda (Tsukimichi: Moonlit Fantasy Season 2 Episode 4 and 5 prop design assistant), Ryosuke Shirakawa (Tsurune, Spy x Family Season 1, A Silent Voice key animator) as character designers, and Makoto Miyazaki (returning) as music composer. J.C.Staff is in charge of the animation production after working on the second season.
The first season was directed by Shingo Natsume and produced by Madhouse, airing in 2015. A second season was released in 2019 and was directed by Chikara Sakurai at J.C.STAFF. Crunchyroll streamed both series internationally outside of Japan.
The anime series is based on the superhero action manga written by ONE and illustrated by Yusuke Murata. It was serialized on Shueisha’s Tonari no Young Jump on June 14, 2012 and has released 31 tankobon volumes as of July 2024. The manga was originally launched as a self-published work in 2009 on the Japanese manga website Nitosha.
Viz Media releases the One-Punch Man manga series in English, describing the synopsis 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?
