On March 5, 2025, excitement surged among fans as **One Punch Man season 3** revealed spectacular new visuals showcasing its principal antagonists: **Orochi** and **Gyoro-Gyoro**. Anticipation continues to build for the upcoming season, which is set to air in October 2025 and will be handled by the renowned animation studio **J.C. Staff**. Notably, the visuals were designed by two of the three character designers contributing to this season.
The original **One Punch Man** manga, crafted by author **ONE**, initially appeared as a webcomic. It has since been adapted into a full-fledged manga by the acclaimed artist **Yusuke Murata**. Since its debut on June 14, 2012, the series has amassed 33 volumes, with 30 of them available in English translation.
Visual Revelations: One Punch Man Season 3’s Key Villains
The latest updates from **One Punch Man’s** official account on X have unveiled striking character visuals. Lord **Orochi**, the formidable leader of the Monster Association, is depicted in menacing red hues, while **Gyoro-Gyoro** retains his familiar pink coloring, reminiscent of his portrayal in the second season.
These character visuals may represent their official color palettes, as they have been illustrated by the series’ character design team. **Shinjiro Kuroda**, who previously worked as the second key animator on **SK8-The Infinity**, is responsible for Gyoro-Gyoro’s illustration, while **Ryosuke Shirakawa**, known for his key animation contributions to **Spy X Family** and **Violet Evergarden**, illustrated Orochi.
The announcement of **One Punch Man season 3** took place on August 17, 2022, with its first substantial update following the announcement arriving on February 29, 2024. Continuing the tradition set by season 2, J.C. Staff will return to animate this new chapter of the beloved franchise.
Fans can expect a talented voice cast that includes **Kaito Ishikawa** as **Genos**, **Makoto Furukawa** as **Saitama**, **Kenjirou Tsuda** as **Atomic Samurai**, **Mamoru Miyano** as **Sweet Mask**, and **Aoi Yuki** portraying **Tatsumaki**.
Speculative Synopsis for One Punch Man Season 3
As it stands, a detailed synopsis for **season 3** has not yet been officially revealed by the production team. However, based on the cliffhanger ending of season 2, it’s reasonable to speculate that we will follow **Saitama** on his continued quest to become a more effective hero, arguably in pursuit of a higher salary.
The newly released character visuals suggest that the forthcoming season might introduce a new arc focusing on the **Monster Association**, with **Gyoro-Gyoro** and **Orochi** set to take center stage. Fans are eager to see how this storyline unfolds as Saitama’s adventures progress.
