"One Punch Man" season 2 is expected to premiere this October with an episode where titular hero Saitama will meet another challenging opponent in the person of Garou.

The martial artist will be the most dangerous opponent Saitama will ever meet. This is because apart from his superhuman physical prowess, he also fights with strategy, something Saitama still needs work on.

Garou will definitely give Saitama a run for his money in "One Punch Man" season 2. He is regarded as the strongest and most resilient fighter he will ever meet.

That being said, it will take more than one hit for the "One Punch Man" hero to take this guy down. What makes this fight more interesting is how Garou lives for everything that Saitama wants to get rid of. This makes the standoff a battle between hope and destruction.

With Garou working on being a monster and the nightmare of heroes like Saitama, "One Punch Man" season 2 will definitely see Saitama officially meet his match.

Garou and Saitama's battle will be extremely exciting as it will make the latter more active he has ever been in battle. He will use various moves and techniques to put his enemy to sleep, but Saitama will need more than that to bring this one down.

Garou will make history in "One Punch Man" season 2 by being the first one to dodge and even block Saitama's big punches, a sight fans never see in the hero's battles.

Meanwhile, there are also reports that at some point in "One Punch Man" season 2, Saitama will go rogue and will be seduced by evil. It will be interesting to see how things will go when the strongest hero alive decides to use his powers to harm instead of help.

"One Punch Man" season 2 is expected to premiere this October. The first season of the hit anime premiered in the same month last year.
