Anime fans have been waiting for the official details of the highly anticipated season 2 of "One-Punch Man." The people behind the show have yet to provide concrete information with regard to its production and release date. However, there are reports suggesting that the much awaited second season will start airing before the year 2016 ends.

The first season of "One-Punch Man" revolved around the story of Saitama. The main protagonist has all the power and ability to end all of his opponents with one punch. The storyline focused on his journey to save the world by becoming a licensed superhero and defeat all the enemies.

According to a report by Game N guide, right after Toonami released an English-dubbed version of the anime series' first season, it quickly became a hit. The Season 1 of "One-Punch Man" is already expected to end in October.

Although nothing is set in stone as of the moment, there are speculations suggesting that Season 2 of the series will focus on Saitama's inability to maintain his overpowered capabilities. According to the report, Genos will most likely become the highlight of the anime series' second season. There are also rumors saying that a new character with the same capabilities of Saitama might get introduced on the next season.

In a report by Manga Panda, series producers are only waiting for the English dubbed version of the "One-Punch Man" Season 1to finish before they decide to start airing the Season 2. The people behind the show are also expected to air an English dubbed version of the "One-Punch Man" Season 2. If rumors prove to be true, fans should be able to start watching the next season of the show in October or November.

Fans are expected a big announcement from the production team anytime soon.

Stay tuned for more news and updates about "One-Punch Man" Season 2.
