One-Punch Man Original Video Anime Episode 6 Previewed in Video
posted on by Crystalyn Hodgkins
Bandai Visual began streaming a video on Friday that previews the first minute of the original video anime (OVA) that will ship with the sixth Blu-ray and DVD volume of the One-Punch Man anime (the linked video is region-locked to Japan). The volume will ship on May 27.
Like the previous OVAs, the sixth (and final) OVA, "Fukanō-sugiru Satsujin Jiken" (The Murder Case that is Too Impossible), features a completely original story written by the manga's original author ONE. In the OVA, the S-rank members of the Hero Association and Saitama are on a hot spring trip when there is a "Zombieman murder incident," and everyone on the trip is a suspect.
The manga's television anime adaptation by Madhouse and director Shingo Natsume (Space Dandy, Fullmetal Alchemist: The Sacred Star of Milos) premiered in Japan on TV Tokyo and Niconico Live in October, and it ended in December. Viz Media and Daisuki both streamed the series outside of Japan as it aired.
The Japanese Blu-ray Disc and DVD releases in Japan have included English subtitles, both for the main anime episodes and for the bundled OVAs.
