J.C. Employees launched its Monster-focused visible challenge final month following its Hero Visible Venture, which ran for a number of months prior. Final month, we obtained illustrations for Monster King Orochi, additionally illustrated by Ryosuke Shirakawa, and Gyoro-Gyoro, illustrated by Kuroda.
The launch of the Monster Visible Venture was met with a little bit of disappointment from followers who’re nonetheless hoping to see a correct trailer for One-Punch Man Season 3. Apart from the unique announcement trailer and a disappointing character-focused promo video that featured lackluster visuals, we have not seen a lot for the upcoming season of One-Punch Man. Coming off a disappointing second season, followers are understandably anxious.
The One-Punch Man anime sequence first debuted in 2015. Produced by Madhouse, it was met with essential acclaim, receiving reward for its animation, humor, characters, and general uniqueness. Season 2, which got here years later in 2019, was seen as a downgrade. Produced by J.C. Employees, a rushed manufacturing schedule was blamed for the drop in high quality of animation. Whereas the second season was nonetheless praised for its characters and story, the general course and pacing of the episodes had been criticized.
This brings us to Season 3. Regardless of Season 2’s critiques, there’s nonetheless loads of pleasure surrounding the One-Punch Man franchise, which makes the dearth of promotional materials or main bulletins, reminiscent of a premiere date, all of the extra disappointing.
One-Punch Man Season 3 has solely been confirmed for an October launch window, however an actual premiere date has not but been introduced.
