Anime Expo 2025: dates, announcements, and why One-Punch Man fans should be excited
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. You may not realize it, but one of anime's biggest days of the year is fast approaching. Anime Expo 2025, taking place this July in Los Angeles, is essentially anime's answer to San Diego Comic-Con – the place to be for all the biggest anime announcements and reveals for the year ahead. So, what is Anime Expo, and why should you be excited? Ahead, we'll take you on a whistlestop tour of the event, from dates and panels, through to which of anime's biggest names have a presence at the show. Whether you're a One-Punch Man fan or want to hear more about Netflix's slate of new anime, get yourself prepared with our cheat sheet to all things Anime Expo 2025. While you wait, be sure to discover all the latest on Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 and Demon Slayer Infinity Castle. Billed as the "biggest" event in its decades-long history, Anime Expo 2025 is a convention that celebrates all things anime, manga, and Japanese pop culture. From cosplay to exhibitions and game shows, there's even a chance for an expected crowd of 100,000-plus to meet the voices and talents behind some of the most significant anime releases around. Plus, we expect major announcements from the likes of One-Punch Man, Demon Slayer, and more. Anime Expo 2025 takes place on July 3-6 from the Los Angeles Convention Center. It has leveled up in recent years, with other venues in the past including the smaller Anaheim Convention Center and, briefly, the Long Beach Convention Center. Let's dig into the schedule. If you're lucky enough to attend the event, the opening day comes bundled with a handful of Crunchyroll firsts, including the world premiere of May I Ask for One Final Thing? Alongside those premieres, there's panels for The Rising of the Shield Hero season 4, the Chainsaw Man movie, a "new project" set in the Ghost in the Shell universe – and that's just Day 1. Expect first looks, trailers, and juicy quotes from producers and animations aplenty. And if you can't be in the room (more on that later), then keep your eyes peeled on social media for all the latest reveals. On Day 2, the key names include Frieren: Beyond Journey's End, Witch Watch, and Cyberpunk: Edgerunners. Hopefully, we get a teaser or sizzle reel for Frieren season 2, plus any sort of update on the untitled Cyberpunk anime that's currently in the works. The A-1 20th Anniversary Celebration may have a sliver of Solo Leveling season 3 news and, on the games side, there's even a Silent Hill f panel. Alongside that, there's also Bleach, The Apothecary Diaries, and JoJo's Bizarre Adventure panels. So if you're at all excited about the present and future of those franchises, then know we're almost certainly going to get crumbs from Anime Expo. On the premiere front, there's an early showing of The Summer Hikaru Died. Day 3 is just as busy, with My Hero Academia one of the jewels in Saturday's crown. We anticipate a taste of the anime's final season, including key art, visuals, and more. There's also talks from game developer Spike Chunsoft, a mega Netflix Showcase event, and "insights" incoming about One-Punch Man season 3 during its panel. Given how little we've seen of that series after a years-long break (one trailer and one heavily divisive teaser), there could be quotes galore, clips from episodes, and even a confirmed release date. Day 4 features a Jujutsu Kaisen panel, though we'd be surprised to see any concrete news regarding Jujutsu Kaisen season 3, especially with the current radio silence on that project. Finally, there's a Kaiju No. 8 panel and a closing event. Phew. Among those not present at the event are the likes of Spy x Family, Haikyuu, and Fire Force. Unfortunately, much like San Diego Comic-Con's Hall H, no panels or events will be streamed. Unlike SDCC, however, Anime Expo doesn't have any rules against filming, so there's a slight chance we'll see footage from the event in the days following. We imagine any major announcements, such as trailers, teasers, and so on, will be released online in the hours after each panel.

One-Punch Man season 3: release date, new trailer, and everything we know so far
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. One-Punch Man season 3 is heading to our screens in a few months, and we can't wait to reunite with Saitama and his deadly fists. Here we gather the latest news about the upcoming season, including the recent announcement that the leading manga and anime platform Viz Media has acquired the rights across North America. For now, we've gathered everything you need to know about the One-Punch Man season 3 release date, plot details, first-look images and more. The return of the beloved satirical superhero anime joins a long list of exciting new anime series this year, like The Apothecary Diaries season 2, Dan Da Dan, and Sakamoto Days. After a six-year hiatus, One-Punch Man is finally coming back with new episodes, as the series adapts the Monster Association arc. We have so many juicy details about what's in store for the show, including some new villain reveals that may at least make our main hero sweat a bit this time. Below, we've compiled all the information available right now about One-Punch Man season 3, including a look at the manga chapters it could adapt in the upcoming season, a confirmed cast list, and even where to watch the (literal) hard-hitting adventures of Saitama. For more from the world of anime, check out our collection of the best anime you should be watching right now, plus the latest on Jujutsu Kaisen season 3, My Hero Academia season 8, and the Demon Slayer Infinity Castle movie trilogy. One-Punch Man season 3 is releasing in October 2025. Given that most fall releases drop in the first week of October, we'd expect One-Punch Man to follow suit. However, we're still waiting on an actual date to be confirmed. Either way, it's been a long time coming. The first season debuted way back in 2015, while the second season aired in 2019. In other words, we've spent over half a decade waiting for the One-Punch Man season 3 release date to surface. Now, we're only months away from Saitama's return. One-Punch Man season 3 will continue the Monster Association arc from Yusuke Marata's manga, which sees the Monster Association arrive at the Hero Association with a message about wanting monsters and heroes to co-exist – something which quickly turns around to be a ruse. Instead, the Monster Association wants an all-out war between heroes and monsters, led by Orochi and Gyoro. Also in season 2, hero hunter Garou is confronted by various heroes wanting to prove their worth to the Hero Association – including Death Gatling. It leads to a fight between Saitama's protege Genos and Garou, with the latter being saved by the Monster Association's Phoenix Man. Inevitably, Saitama – having been sidetracked by attempting to best King at video games – comes and saves the day. He kills the monster Elder Centipede and remarks that a despondent Genos needs "power" to improve as a hero. So, that's where we're at. What's next for One-Punch Man season 3? If you're following along in the manga, we're starting from chapter 86. To confirm our speculations, the official One-Punch Man social media accounts dropped the first two 'Mysterious Being' visuals in early April. These featured Monster King Orochi and Gyoro-Gyoro. So yeah, the Monster Association is basically confirmed at this point. A season of One-Punch Man typically covers around 40-50 chapters of the source material. If that's the case again, we could expect this season to end around chapter 123 – and the debut of a character known as Psykos (to say any more would be a significant spoiler…) Until then, expect the perpetually bored Saitama to continue fighting monsters alongside his fellow heroes and Garou to spend more time with the Monster Association as an all-out war ensues. Society's reaction to the monsters differs, with one splinter group – The Monster Worship Party – submitting itself to the monsters. The new One-Punch Man season 3 trailer, which you can watch above, shows Saitama flanked by a series of lower-ranked (but no less formidable) heroes as they face down the Monster Association. The clip isn't super heavy on action, and we don't see any massive fights just yet, but it does end with Saitama promising to punch Garou. The music in the teaser is pretty killer as well, so definitely check it out if you want to get hyped for season 3! The One-Punch Man season 3 cast has mostly been confirmed thanks to its latest trailer. They include Saitama (Makoto Furakawa), Genos (Kaito Ishikawa), Garou (Hikaru Midorikawa), King (Hiroki Yasumoto), and the Monster Association's Gyoro Gyoro (Takehito Koyasu). Other characters include Terrible Tornado (Aoi Yuki), Silverfang (Kazuhiro Yamaji), Atomic Samurai (Kenjiro Tsuda), Child Emperor (Minami Takayama), and Zombieman (Takahiro Sakurai). The J.C. Staff studio are back on animated duties too. As of November 2024, the official One-Punch Man Twitter account has also unveiled season 3 art for the characters Atomic Samurai and Zombieman from season 3 character designer Ryosuke Shirokawa. You can see them for yourself below. Like the first two seasons, One-Punch Man season 3 will be streaming on Crunchyroll but, as of writing, it's only been confirmed in the UK, Ireland, and Europe. US fans can likely expect the series to also be available on Hulu (just like the other seasons). Again, though, currently this is just speculation on our part. We'll keep you posted as we wait for more information. We do know that the leading manga and anime platform Viz Media has acquired the rights to One-Punch Man season 3 across North America, Latin America and Oceania (via Variety). "Additional details regarding streaming availability in VIZ Media territories will be announced in the coming weeks," they announced on May 27. In the meantime, check out our list of the best Crunchyroll anime if you're looking for something new to watch.
