As of writing, no official release date for My Hero Academia‘s last season has been announced. That said, it is possible to make predictions from the anime’s history of releases. The show has had a pretty standard release pattern, where new seasons have been released yearly or a year and a half after the last one.

Expected Timeline

The most recent season was in 2024, and considering the production cycles, the last season might be released in October 2025. My Hero Academia has been Studio Bones’ baby from the start, and they are recognized for their excellent animation and commitment to the source material. Fans can anticipate the same, if not a higher, level of animation for the series finale.

As the anime has been following the manga, the last season will cover the remaining arcs up to the climax of the series. Here’s what’s left to be animated:

The Final War Arc

The largest fight in My Hero Academia will be happening in the last season. The heroes and villains will face their final confrontation with high stakes and emotional sacrifices. Get ready to see:

  • Deku against Shigaraki in a battle of reckoning.
  • The remaining pro heroes pushing themselves to the limit.
  • Bakugo’s climactic return and his emotional confrontation with Deku.
  • Todoroki vs. Dabi, the long-awaited family battle that brings their tragic storyline to a close.
  • All For One vs. Endeavor and Hawks, a fight that will push the top heroes to their limits.
  • Ochaco Uraraka vs. Himiko Toga, a battle that is as much about ideology as it is about combat.
  • Tokoyami and Jiro vs. All For One, where unexpected teamwork plays a crucial role.
  • Spinner’s final stand and how it ties into Shigaraki’s character arc.
  • Surprising character destinies that will have fans in tears.

The Epilogue

After the intense battles, the anime will likely shift into its epilogue, giving closure to the characters we’ve followed for so long. The manga’s ending gave fans a glimpse into the futures of key characters, and the anime is expected to do the same.
The story jumps forward in time, showing how the world has recovered from the final war. Many of the young heroes step into pro-hero roles, shaping the next generation of protectors. Deku continues to grow into the role of the Symbol of Peace, while Bakugo, Todoroki, and the rest of Class 1-A each take their own paths in rebuilding hero society. Some characters retire, others become mentors, and a few unexpected alliances emerge in the new world order.

Animation Expectations and Studio Bones’ Role

Studio Bones has had the charge of My Hero Academia since its first run, and while things have gotten rough at times, the last season is hopefully going to be done with care.

Will Animation Get Better?

Viewers have complained about some of the animation decisions in previous seasons, but since this is the climactic final battle, Studio Bones should put its A-game into this project. Big fights, like Deku against Shigaraki, need some of the most intricate animations in the series. With how well Studio Bones has worked on high-priority moments previously, expectations are high.

What Surprises Could the Final Season Include?

With anime adaptations, there is always room for minor or major additions. Here are some of them:

  • Longer Fight Scenes: Some of the manga fights were too brief, and the anime could lengthen them.
  • More Character Moments: Side characters may get more time on screen to bring attention to their arcs.
  • Alternative Endings: Although unlikely, there are some guesses that the anime could modify a few aspects of the manga’s ending.

How Will the Final Season Impact the Franchise?

Despite My Hero Academia wrapping up, its impact will persist. The franchise has generated movies, spin-offs, and merchandise, cementing its place in history. Might we get a sequel series or a spin-off anime? Some believe that a Vigilantes adaptation or a story of the next generation would be feasible.

Conclusion

My Hero Academia‘s final season promises to be the most eagerly anticipated anime event in years. With no release date announced, only one thing is certain: All eyes will be on the climactic conclusion. Expect fierce showdowns, tears of goodbye, and possibly some surprises. From those who were there from day one to recent converts, there’s no reason not to stay for the dramatic ride.
