Get Ready for Wanpanman! Season 3 & OVAs Coming to ABEMA for Free!

Hero fans, rejoice! The highly anticipated third season of the TV anime Wanpanman, marking its first new series in six and a half years, is set for a spectacular treat. It has been officially announced that Season 3 will receive its first-ever free marathon broadcast on the “new future TV” platform, ABEMA, across October 26th and 27th, 2025. But that’s not all! To complete the heroic saga, fans can also look forward to free marathon broadcasts of the Original Video Animations (OVAs) from both Season 1 and Season 2, ensuring a comprehensive and action-packed experience for all.

The Invincible Hero: What is Wanpanman About?

At its core, Wanpanman is a hero anime adapted from the immensely popular manga series currently serialized on “Tonari no Young Jump”. The manga boasts an incredible creative duo: the original story by ONE and captivating artwork by Murata Yuusuke. The series masterfully portrays the everyday life of the seemingly ordinary, “low-key” strongest hero, Saitama, who possesses the astonishing ability to defeat any opponent with just “one punch.” Beyond Saitama’s unique existence, the anime also showcases the thrilling exploits of other heroes as they bravely battle mysterious beings and formidable monsters.

A Decade of Heroics: The Wanpanman Anime Journey

The TV anime adaptation first premiered its Season 1 in October 2015, followed by Season 2 in April 2019. It quickly captivated audiences not only with its truly unique and memorable characters but also with its exhilarating battle action, seamlessly blending comedic elements with intense, passionate fights. Now, as the anime celebrates its 10th anniversary this October, the long-awaited Season 3 has finally begun its broadcast. After a six-and-a-half-year hiatus, this new series is drawing significant attention and excitement from countless fans eager to see what new challenges await Saitama and his companions.
