One Punch Man is a web manga and anime series by author ‘One’ and is famous for being a parody of both the superhero and the Shonen genres. However, the manga announced a two-month hiatus on May 21st, 2025, not specifying a reason for doing so.

The author has taken long breaks before, the last one being in June of 2024. That hiatus was also for a two-month period. The exact reason was not provided, but it is clear that the next chapter of the One Punch Man manga will have to wait until July 17th on ‘Tonari no Young Jump.’

One Punch Man manga goes on another long break

One Punch Man is a manga serialized in Tona Jump, the author and brain behind the series is One, while the manga artist is Yusuke Murata. The series is known for the many redraws and retcons due to the perfectionist nature of both Murata and One.

While production for the third season of the One-Punch Man anime is underway, manga illustrator Yusuke Murata, who adapts the series from the original webcomic by One, needs to make his own “preparations.” Murata announced on his Twitter account and Tonari no Young Jump on its official website that the One-Punch Man manga will be going on hiatus for two months “due to various arrangements and preparations by Yusuke Murata.” It was not revealed what those “arrangements and preparations” are. The next chapter is scheduled to be published on the Tonari no Young Jump online platform on August 22.

Murata's redrawn chapters in One-Punch Man reveal the menacing powers of the villain Empty Void, comparable to S-Class hero Blast. Void's ability to use God's cubes as weapons poses a real threat, even to someone as powerful as Saitama. Despite attempts to tempt heroes with the cubes, Saitama's allies show potential resistance against God's influence in One-Punch Man.

Warning: contains Huge Spoilers for the Manga finale of Mashle: Magic and Muscles

Mash proved muscles are the ultimate form of magic, achieving Divine Visionary status without using magic. Mashle: Magic and Muscles tackles themes of discrimination and the importance of striving for dreams, with its bluntness making it stand out from other manga. Mash's muscles and willpower challenged societal norms, changing the world of magic users in the epic finale.

The one overriding goal of Mash, Lance, Dot, and the other magic school students in Mashle: Magic and Muscles has always been to achieve Divine Visionary status. Due to his inability to use magic, Mash was supposedly always at an unresolvable disadvantage, but the finale of the manga proves what the ultimate form of magic actually is.

One-Punch Man's titular character being overpowered is no secret to the anime community. He is so powerful that fans enjoy comparing him to the strongest characters from other franchises, and speculating on who might come out on top. Most even claim he can complete his signature one-hit knockout with them. After all, Saitama defeats most of his opponents with a single punch, so it makes sense that a cross-universe matchup would be no different.

However, punching isn't the only attack that the bald hero is capable of. He can actually be quite innovative, bringing out the maximum limits of his strength in seemingly unassuming movements. That said, Saitama's clownish behavior leaves a lot to be desired. In any case, the effects of his attacks are rather catastrophic, especially those that belong to his Killer Move: Serious Series.
