"One Punch Man" season 2 release date has been highly anticipated despite an extended lag on its release date. As of now, two opposing central themes are circulating the web regarding its release, while other rumors concerning the main characters have also been speculated as fans continue their clamor for the early return of the hit anime series.
This particular demand for release information has been the center of attention by several online media outlet and blog sites. In retrospect, the release date rumors can be summarized into two main categories for easy understanding and calendar marking. The release date of "OPM" season 2 can be seen mainly from two distinct timelines.
The first rumored release date is suggesting that Saitama and the rest of the Hero Association will back be in the latter part of this year, probably in between the months of September to December as most rumors would suggest. On the other hand, separate rumor also suggests that "OPM" anime will likely be back in a year or two, possibly in 2017.
Though reports were mostly founded in speculations, the demand for Saitama's immediate return is very evident. That is why there are suggestions that the 37 years old manga artist behind "One Punch Man", Yusuke Murata, should double his strides when it comes to production. And this would somehow mean 100 sketches, 100 pages inked, 10 hours of editing, and 100 storyboards every single day, according to Otakukart.
These so-called "One Punch Man" season 2 release date information, surfacing on the internet right now are mere approximations and premature accounts founded simply on conjectures and pure speculations. That is why in assessing reliability, the certainty of release date information should likely come from two main sources, Madhouse and Viz Media, according to ReleaseDate.
However, the said sources are still in silence regarding the all-important specific release date of "One Punch Man." And this somehow leads to different theories being discussed online including not just the arrival of "OPM's" next season, but as well as other details of the characters.
One of the highly discussed topics online is the hidden skills of Saitama, which would include "Stealth" as discussed on "OPM" Reddit account. According to some fans, the bald white caped superhero can hide his true strength leading opponents to think or consider him as weak. And for that matter, it has been said that only a few managed to overcome such skill, Boros and Carnage Kabuto.
The conjectures and speculations surrounding the hit anime of Yusuke Murata are indeed intriguing, even though it may just be a result of boredom and too much excitement. But whatever the reasons behind these speculations and approximations, it would only mean one thing- "One Punch Man" is a success.
Though current information on the web regarding the release date and spoilers of "OPM" are mere speculations and product of a so-called group sense making activity, it may still hide a grain of truth that could awaken the sense of wonder in most anime fans and comic enthusiast. Guess we would just have to wait for the official announcement to fully satisfy our yearning.
