Most of the voice cast and main staff from the previous season will return.
However, there are some significant changes to the core staff.
Shinpei Nagai will replace Chikara Sakurai as director and Sakura Murakami will also take over as art director, while Yuki Hirose is the new director of photography.
Series composition remains the responsibility of Tomohiro Suzuki, with character designs by Chikashi Kubota, Shinjiro Kuroda, and Ryosuke Shirakawa.
The third season is expected to have 12 episodes, just like the previous two seasons.
This arc involves the Hero Association mobilizing the strongest S-class heroes to confront an organized army of monsters.
The opening theme song "Get No Satified!" by JAM Project feat. Babymetal and Makoto Furukawa's "Soko ni Aru Akari" ending will add to the excitement.
Animation Quality Concerned by Fans?
Despite high enthusiasm, the latest One Punch Man Season 3 trailer has sparked concerns among fans regarding the animation quality.
Many felt the preview showed limited animation and too many static shots, which raised doubts about J.C. Staff's ability to adapt to the intense fight scenes.
Fans are hoping for significant improvement in the third season, especially since the Monster Association Arc is known for its highly dynamic action and combat.
Some fans are concerned that J.C. Staff may not be able to deliver the dynamic animation required by this epic story.
The premiere on October 12, 2025, will determine whether these concerns are justified.
