As of late May 2025, the One-Punch Man manga is on a two-month hiatus, with the next chapter scheduled for release on July 17, 2025. Artist Yusuke Murata announced the break on May 21, citing “various circumstances” but did not provide specific details.

Here is the tweet made :

This pause follows a series of redraws and retcons that have been a hallmark of the series. Murata has frequently revisited earlier chapters to enhance the artwork or adjust story elements, a practice that, while appreciated for its quality, has also led to delays in new content.

In more positive news, Viz Media has acquired the distribution rights for One-Punch Man Season 3, which is set to premiere in October 2025. This development has been welcomed by fans, especially during the manga’s hiatus.
