Vol 42 Cover:

Since its debut in 2016, My Hero Academia has become a phenomenon. Now, as the final season looms, viewers are both excited and heartbroken to say goodbye to the characters and world that have become a part of their lives.

The final season of My Hero Academia marks the end of an era, both for anime fans and for the superhero genre in general. As we look forward to 2025, anticipation builds for the epic conclusion to one of the most influential anime series of its generation.

Kohei Horikoshi‘s original manga series debuted in Shueisha‘s Weekly Shonen Jump magazine on July 7, 2014, and concluded on August 4. All the released seasons are currently available for streaming on Crunchyroll!

Izuku has dreamt of being a hero all his life—a lofty goal for anyone, but especially challenging for a kid with no superpowers. That’s right, in a world where eighty percent of the population has some kind of super-powered “quirk,” Izuku was unlucky enough to be born completely normal. But that’s not enough to stop him from enrolling in one of the world’s most prestigious hero academies.
