Who is going to be the villain in One Punch Man Season 3? Here are the details

After a long wait, One Punch Man Season 3 is set to premiere in October 2025, introducing Garou as the central antagonist.

One Punch Man Villain Garou
One Punch Man Season 3 is officially going to hit the screen by October 2025. After almost six years of season 2, the creators are ready with a new challenge for our beloved Saitama.
The first two seasons of the anime have covered around 9 arcs from the manga - Introduction Arc, House of Evolution Arc, Hero Association Entrance Arc, Paradisers Arc, Sea King Arc, Alien Conqueror Arc, Hero Hunt Arc, Monster Association Introduction Arc, and Super Fight Arc.
We have already been introduced with Garou who is going to be the main antagonist of One Punch Man season 3. Moving ahead, let's have a look at Gaou's journey, his powers, and more.

One Punch Man season 3 villain: A deep dive in Garou


Garou is more of an anti-hero to be precise. Trained under Bang (The Silver Fang in One Punch Man), Garou was restricted by his master's class due to his rogue approach toward others. And yes, he is pissed on the global obsession with heroes and villains and considers it hypocritical. According to his belief, Monsters are heavily misunderstood and he decides to work on the image of villains on his own.
The best part is that Garou is not just a fighter with a heavy fist. Instead, he also is tactical and adaptive. One of his traits is that he improves his moves mid-fight by learning more and pushing himself to a great extent. He is nothing less than a fighter who keeps challenging himself in order to remain undefeated.
His animosity with the heroes along with his kill bestowed him with the title of Hero Hunter. And now, the antagonist will work on targeting stronger heroes. His goal is not only to win but to prove the point that the heroes are weaklings. On a concluding note, he is not someone who is in complete sync with the villains as well. All in all, his depiction in the anime is going to be great.
