The One Punch Man manga follows a loose release schedule, with new chapters coming out as and when they are ready, but with stellar artwork and an incredibly fun setting, it is always worth knowing when new chapters are on their way.

Is the One-Punch Man anime season 4 coming out?

The answer is… kinda. Technically, the next batch of One-Punch Man episodes that are coming in 2027 are a continuation of Season 3, making this more like a long-delayed Part 2 than a true Season 4. However, the year-long gap between episodes has many fans referring to One Punch Man Season 3 Part 2 as Season 4.

What is the One-Punch Man manga based on?

Back in 2009, the writer and artist known as One published the first page of One-Punch Man on his own website. Despite the simplistic drawings, the world and characters he created quickly caught the attention of fans around the world. In 2012, One teamed up with Yusuke Murata to remake One Punch Man in manga form. Both the webcomic and the manga are currently ongoing, though the original webcomic often goes months or years without an update as One continues to draw it for fun.
