Is the One Punch Man manga finished?
As of May 2024, the One-Punch Man manga is not yet finished and is still ongoing. In a post on X (formerly Twitter), illustrator Yusuke Murata revealed that the next chapter is scheduled to be released in Japan on Thursday, May 30.
This guide refers to the One-Punch Man manga remake with art by Yusuke Murata, which is different from One’s webcomic. The series was initially self-published by One as a webcomic in 2009. As of writing, the webcomic has 150 chapters.
Shueisha began publishing the remake with art by Murata in June 2012. There are currently 30 volumes available in Japanese. For the North American and English releases, Viz Media began publishing the series in January 2013. They have published 28 volumes so far.
The first season premiered in October 2015, with Madhouse producing the anime. The second season aired in April 2019, with J.C. Staff taking over production. Meanwhile, the third season is expected to arrive sometime later this year, with J.C. Staff continuing the production. There is no exact date yet.
The official synopsis of One-Punch Man from Viz Media describes the series as:
“Nothing about Saitama passes the eyeball test when it comes to superheroes, from his lifeless expression to his bald head to his unimpressive physique. However, this average-looking guy has a not-so-average problem—he just can’t seem to find an opponent strong enough to take on!”
