'One Punch Man' Season 2 Air Date: 'One Punch Man 2' To Air This Winter? Production Timeline Matches Projected November Release
There is a strong possibility that the much anticipated "One Punch Man" Season 2 is happening this winter. Fans are confident that based on production and development estimates, Saitama's next adventures will commence sometime in November.
It was earlier reported by Korea Portal that there are rumors that "One Punch Man" Season 2 will premiere this November, which is a month earlier than its December 2015 air date for the first season. The report cited that the projected target month is mainly because "One Punch Man" Season 1 is already available on Blu-Ray and DVD.
A recent report by Comic Book is now supporting this timeline based on the progress of production. Based on the typical timeline for the development of a shonen anime like "One Punch Man", production takes 6-9 months for 12-15 episodes. Aside from the completion of the animation side, the studio also needs additional time for post-production and marketing.
It can be recalled that "One Punch Man" Season 2 has been confirmed last September to the delight of fans of the world's most powerful hero. While "One Punch Man" has not yet released the official synopsis for the upcoming season, rumors are already rife with the possible list of powerful opponents that Saitama will fight.
According to early reports, Lord Boros stands a strong chance of returning to the limelight in "One Punch Man" Season 2. The villain was defeated last season by Saitama but it seems that he would be holding a grudge and wanting to take his revenge on the hero. This time around, Lord Boros will be hedging his bets on a win by coming back with more powerful allies.
It has also been reported that the 17-member Monster Association will also be arriving to challenge Saitama in "One Punch Man" Season 2. Garou is also rumored to stand a chance at defeating Saitama but most recent news hints at the introduction of a new villain King, an S-class hero.
