One-Punch Man is an ongoing Japanese webcomic created by an author using the pseudonym One, which began publication in early 2009.

While there is no official release date for "One-Punch Man" Season 2, rumors suggest that the anime will come out before 2017. Furthermore, it is believed that the second installment will feature new villains and a possible love triangle.

Avid fans have been clamoring for Season 2 following the success of "One-Punch Man" Season 1. Many are looking forward to an added spice to the plot of Season 2. According to iTech Post, the second installment may introduce a new set of anti-heroes besides a love triangle.

In "One-Punch Man" Season 1, Saitama emerged victorious in his fight against the powerful Lord Boros. While it was a satisfying victory to many fans, Boros may avenge himself at the beginning or latter part of the second season. The rematch will be unexpected for Saitama since his enemy will return stronger and more skilled.

 "One-Punch Man" producers are gearing up to release Season 2 before the beginning of 2017, according to Xbox 360 Asylum. In addition, it is rumored that a new hero will be introduced at the start of Season 2. The new hero could be a Class A Rank called Amai Mask.

To avenge the destruction of his city, Amai Mask will fearlessly face off the Hero Association and those behind the attack. However, his heroic move may soon be marred since he will transform into a villain.

Amai Mask is the highest ranked A-Class hero, besides working as an actor and singer. Amai Mask holds a belief that heroes should be role models to the public, but it is perceived that he may have a dark side of his personality that will be revealed in Season 2. The villain laughs at the S-Class heroes for their predicaments.

With Lord Boros' possible demand for a rematch and Amai Mask getting ready to fight with the major hero of the series, Saitama will face a bigger threat in Season 2. It is also speculated that Garou will battle against Saitama.

Here is a sneak peek for more information on the upcoming season:
