Even the toughest foes go down in one hit. Teaming up with Genos, his loyal sidekick, Saitama does his hero duties with the Hero Association.
But wait, there’s a twist! Monsters claiming to be from the Monster Association pop up and kidnap a child of a Hero Association big shot.
The powerful S-class heroes join forces, plotting a raid on the Monster Association hideout to save the hostage. Meanwhile, Garou, a ‘human monster’ captured by the Monster Association during a hero brawl, wakes up in their hideout.

While the specific plot for One-Punch Man Season 3 is a mystery, it’s likely to continue right after Season 2 and dive into the next part of the story by ONE and Yusuke Murata.
The first two seasons covered the manga up to chapter 85, so we can expect Season 3 to kick off from chapter 86, exploring the Monster Association arc.
This arc is a big deal, starting in 2017 and wrapping up in 2021. It brings a full-scale invasion of the Hero Association, recruits almost all S-Rank Heroes, and showcases Garou’s rise as a major villain.
If you recall the Season 2 finale, it set the stage for a showdown between Garou and Saitama.
Season 3 is likely to bring back Garou in a big way. Another exciting character to watch for is Blast, an S-Class Rank 1 hero with a mysterious mission that ties into the ongoing plot. Blast sits at the top of One-Punch Man’s power rankings, promising some epic fights when the anime returns
