A brand new superhero group is coming to screens across the globe. But it is definitely not your average superhero group.

That is to say, what work is there to do when the fight is over after one punch?

Nevertheless, there seems to be plenty of reasons to watch and enjoy the upcoming "One Punch Man" anime series. Today, a brand new trailer was posted on the show's official website. The trailer features character introductions for the main cast including Genos, Speed of Sound Sonic, Tornado of Terror, and the infamous Saitama.

Fans can watch the new trailer below.

So far, fans in an ANN forum appear to be very excited for the new "One Punch Man" anime series:

"This looks visually impressive! I doubt this will be a two-cour but the excitement of the trailer is getting me hyped for October this year," said Stark700.

The "One Punch Man" anime series will be directed by Shingo Natsume with scrips by Tomohiro Suzuki. Character designs will be handled by Chikashi Kubota. Finally, MADHOUSE will handle the animation production.

Anime News Network reports the following Japanese voice cast:

Viz Media, who will stream the "One Punch Man' anime outside of Japan in October, describes the series as follows:

"In this new action-comedy, everything about a young man named Saitama screams "AVERAGE," from his lifeless expression, to his bald head, to his unimpressive physique. However, this average-looking fellow doesn't have your average problem... He's actually a superhero that's looking for tough opponents!"

It goes on:

"The problem is, every time he finds a promising candidate he beats the snot out of them in one punch. Can Saitama finally find an evil villain strong enough to challenge him? Follow Saitama through his hilarious romps as he searches for new bad guys to challenge!"
