One-Punch Man 2026: Where to Watch Every Season on Netflix and Hulu

If you want to catch up on One-Punch Man in 2026, the streaming picture is split across two services in the United States, and that split is exactly why fans keep asking where to watch it. On August 25, 2026, One-Punch Man returned to Netflix in the US, Canada, and Latin America, bringing Season 1 and Season 2 back under one roof. Season 3 Part 1, however, premiered on Hulu in October 2025 and has stayed there.

Below is the full where-to-watch map for every season, the correct watch order for new and returning viewers, and the confirmed timing for Season 3 Part 2. Every date and platform here comes from the studios' own announcements and the outlets that first reported them, listed at the end.

Where to Watch One-Punch Man Right Now (2026)

The short answer: Netflix now carries the early seasons, and Hulu carries the newest one. Here is how the library breaks down by service as of September 2026.

• Netflix (US, Canada, Latin America): Season 1 and Season 2, added August 25, 2026. This is the first time US subscribers can stream multiple seasons on Netflix at once. Some outlets have reported that Season 3 Part 1 may join the same rollout, so check the title page on your account rather than assuming.
• Hulu (US): Season 3 Part 1, all 12 episodes, streaming since October 12, 2025. English-dubbed episodes were added from November 30, 2025.
• Disney+ (Canada): Season 3 Part 1, which began on the same October 12, 2025 date as the Hulu launch.

Season 3 did not stream on Crunchyroll in the US, which is a common point of confusion given how many recent anime land there. If you only have Crunchyroll, you will not find the latest season. Akibato ships One-Punch Man and shonen anime figures worldwide from Japan, so you can start a Saitama or Genos shelf while you catch up on whichever service you have.

One-Punch Man Watch Order in 2026

One-Punch Man is straightforward to follow because it airs in order, but the studio behind it has changed twice, which affects the look of each season. Here is the full order with what each one covers.

• Season 1 (2015, Madhouse): Directed by Shingo Natsume. Introduces Saitama, the hero who defeats any opponent in a single punch, and his disciple Genos. The season that made the series a global hit.
• Season 2 (2019, J.C. Staff): Directed by Chikara Sakurai after Madhouse and Natsume left the project. Introduces the martial artist Garou and sets up the Monster Association threat.
• Season 3 Part 1 (2025, J.C. Staff): Directed by Shinpei Nagai. Continues the Monster Association arc, in which the organization kidnaps a Hero Association executive's child and the S-Class heroes plan a raid on the monsters' base. Garou, now a self-styled human monster, awakens inside that base as the season opens.
• Season 3 Part 2 (2027, J.C. Staff): The second cour, which will continue the raid. Not yet released.

You do not need any side material to follow the anime. Watch the three released blocks in order, and you are current until Part 2 arrives.

When Does One-Punch Man Season 3 Part 2 Come Out?

Season 3 Part 2 is scheduled for 2027. Bandai Namco Filmworks announced the second cour immediately after Part 1's finale aired on December 28, 2025, but committed only to a 2027 window rather than a specific month.

The gap between the two cours is unusually long for a single season split, and it follows heavy criticism of Part 1's animation quality. Reports during Part 1's run described overworked staff and, in some cases, online harassment aimed at the production team. A 2027 target gives the studio more time to finish the raid to a higher standard, and Season 3 already brought in a new director, Shinpei Nagai, as part of that effort.

For collectors and viewers, the practical takeaway is simple: there is more than a year between the halves, so there is no rush to catch up before Part 2 lands. It also means the Monster Association arc is only half-told on screen right now, and the biggest fights are still ahead. If you are starting fresh, you can comfortably watch the three released blocks over a weekend and still be current.

Why the Netflix Return Matters (and What Stays on Hulu)

The Netflix move is significant because, for years, US subscribers could only find Season 1 on the platform, and even that came and went. Having Season 1 and Season 2 together on Netflix again makes the entry point far easier for new fans drawn in by the Season 3 buzz.

The catch is that the newest season is not guaranteed on Netflix. Season 3 Part 1 launched on Hulu, and while some reports describe the August 2026 rollout as bringing the whole saga to Netflix, the most careful reporting confirms only Seasons 1 and 2, with Part 1 listed as a possibility. Until Netflix's own page shows it, treat Hulu as the reliable home for Season 3 in the US. If you are choosing a service specifically to watch the Monster Association arc, Hulu is the safe pick. Fans working through the whole run often watch this alongside other big shonen streaming shifts, such as WIT Studio's Netflix One Piece remake.

What One-Punch Man Fans Are Collecting While They Wait

A long wait between cours is exactly when collectors tend to fill out a shelf, and One-Punch Man has one of the deepest figure markets of any modern shonen series to draw from, spanning premium scale statues down to affordable capsule figures. Saitama's deadpan design and Genos's mechanical detail make both characters popular in scale and prize lines, and villains like Garou have their own dedicated releases tied to the Monster Association arc.

A few practical notes for building a One-Punch Man display in 2026:

• Scale figures of Saitama and Genos are the anchor pieces, and prices hold up because the characters stay in demand across every season.
• Prize and gashapon figures are the low-cost way in, and they refresh whenever a new season airs, so expect more Monster Association lineups around Part 2.
• Villain figures, especially Garou, are worth watching now while the arc is still on screen and demand is high.

The Bottom Line

• Netflix US, Canada, and Latin America added Season 1 and Season 2 on August 25, 2026; Season 3 Part 1 is on Hulu in the US and Disney+ in Canada.
• Watch order is simple: Season 1 (2015), Season 2 (2019), Season 3 Part 1 (2025), then Season 3 Part 2 in 2027.
• Season 3 covers the Monster Association arc, directed by Shinpei Nagai at J.C. Staff.
• Season 3 Part 2 is confirmed for 2027 with no exact date yet, so there is time to catch up.
