'One Punch Man' season 2 release date, plot news 2016: Might see Saitama getting into a love triangle
Fans have been speculating wildly on what to expect from the anime adaptation of "One Punch Man," and one popular theory suggests that this season could find the titular hero falling in love and finding himself in a love triangle.
It is rumored that Saitama will be having more of a personal arc in the second season, as opposed to the action-heavy first season. Though some fans are expecting the love interest to be someone they have already met in the first season, it is more likely that the series will introduce an all new character for Saitama to have a romance with.
As for the third person in the Saitama love triangle. Fans speculate that it will be a major villain that Saitama will be facing head-on. But then again, it might be more humorous if the third person would be Saitama's ever-devoted disciple Genos.
There are also reports claiming that the second season will showcase three major villains. There are rumors that the anime will see the return of Lord Boros, who is back to exact revenge for his loss in the first season. Another villain will be one of the heroes. Amai Mask, who was the highest rank in Class A, has had tiffs with the Hero Association, and he will likely be going up against the rest of the Class A heroes.
A new never-before-seen villain is also set to come, and he's called Garou. Garou will be going on a rampage as he takes down every hero in the Hero Association, and he will eventually come face-to-face with Saitama. Garou is also said to be a former student of S-Class hero Silver Fang, a powerful martial arts expert who has the "Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist" as his signature move.
Fans who can't wait for the anime always have the manga to keep themselves updated on "One Punch Man."
The second season of "One Punch Man" is reportedly coming in early 2017.
