After the greatness that was the One-Punch Man anime, a season 2 has been announced. One-Punch Man is a manga series, turned anime, that is about a man named Saitama that becomes the strongest hero in Japan, possibly the entire Universe. He works out so much that he loses all of his hair and his emotions. He becomes a bald man with a derp face, only becoming serious when he gets interested in a fight. His training student and roommate, Genos, is a cyborg that has become a fan favorite amongst readers of the manga and watchers of the anime. He is also a favorite amongst the citizens in the One-Punch Man universe.
Regarding the storyline of the second season, rumor has it that season 2 will not follow the manga’s storyline. The upcoming season will introduce Garou, the Human Monster, as one of the villains and arch enemies of Saitama. According to HNGN, “In the manga, Garou was Bang or Silver Fang’s former disciple who eventually lost his way. What is particularly interesting is that Garou and Saitama are two sides of the same coin – just people who happen to go far beyond what humans are capable of becoming.” The other arch enemy for season 2 will be Amai Mask, the top A rank hero in the Hero Association.
One-Punch Man was created by manga writer, ONE. Season 2 will hopefully be released in 2016, but it is more likely that it will be released in early 2017.
