Anime Consortium Japan to stream simulcast of ONE-PUNCH MAN
Anime Consortium Japan Inc., the Japanese company for official anime streaming will simulcast ONE-PUNCH MAN starting the night of October 5, 2015 on DAISUKI.net, immediately after the initial broadcast on Japanese television. About ONE-PUNCH MAN:
In the series, nothing about Saitama passes the eyeball test when it comes to superheroes, from his lifeless expression to his bald head to his unimpressive physique. However, this average-looking guy has a not-so-average problem – he just can’t seem to find an opponent strong enough to take on! Every time a promising villain appears, he beats the snot out of ’em with one punch! Can Saitama finally find an opponent who can go toe-to-toe with him and give his life some meaning? Or is he doomed to a life of super-powered boredom?
