posted on by Crystalyn Hodgkins
The Japanese retailer Manga-Oh is currently listing that a bundled edition of the 10th volume of ONE and Yūsuke Murata's One-Punch Man manga will include an original video anime (OVA). The retailer lists that the set will ship on December 4. The website lists that the regular edition volume will also ship on the same day.
The manga's TV anime adaptation by Madhouse and director Shingo Natsume (Space Dandy, Fullmetal Alchemist: The Sacred Star of Milos) will premiere in Japan on TV Tokyo and Niconico Live on Sunday, October 4 at 25:05 (effectively, Monday, October 5 at 1:05 a.m.).
Murata's manga series adapts ONE's original web manga of the same name. Murata's manga is currently running on Shueisha's free Tonari no Young Jump spinoff website. The series passed the 2.2-million mark in November 2013, the 3.4-million mark in May 2014, and the 4.5-million mark last November. Shueisha published the ninth volume (pictured above right) in August, and a special edition of the ninth volume included a drama CD.
One-Punch Man is currently serialized in Viz Media's English-language digital edition of Weekly Shonen Jump. Viz released the first two volumes in print earlier this month.
Viz Media will also stream the anime on its website and on Daisuki.
