One of the largest anime series presently airing will continue with My Hero Academia Season 7, in which Deku will take on Shigaraki in what promises to be his most difficult battle to date.
The anime series My Hero Academia, which is based on Kohei Horikoshi’s manga, is getting close to its conclusion. The Black Hero Arc and the Liberation War Arc have come and gone, making room for the Final Saga and its resolution.
Season 6, the most recent season, saw both incredible highs and lows. The introduction of Star Stripe, Dark Deku, and the beginning of his confrontation with Shigaraki all heighten the interest in upcoming episodes. What else do we know about My Hero Academia Season 7 and when it will be released?
My Hero Academia Season 7 release date
My Hero Academia Season 7 will premiere on May 4, 2024.
This is a little later than normal, since seasons 5 and 6 kicked off in March 2021 and March 2023, respectively. That said, the fact we’re getting My Hero Academia Season 7 so soon after the finale of the sixth season is something to celebrate!

My Hero Academia season 7 trailer
The first proper My Hero Academia Season 7 trailer was released in December 2023. It teases another epic chapter for Deku and his cohorts as they continue to stop evil.
Towards the conclusion, Star and Stripe is shown in a few prominent images, suggesting that their prominence would increase over the course of the season. The last confrontation between Deku and Shigaraki is quickly approaching, although it hasn’t been promoted as much—possibly to preserve the surprise of how that portrayal would be presented.
My Hero Academia Season 7 plot: What will happen next season?
My Hero Academia Season 7 will include a fresh fight against All For One and Tomura Shigaraki with the arrival of Star and Stripe.Due to Star and Stripe’s fondness for All Might, this will undoubtedly be a factor. Additionally, her very potent quirk, “New Order,” which gives her the ability to impose “rules” on everything in her immediate vicinity, will also likely be used.
The Final Saga, as it is told in the manga, will be followed by the television program. Deku and Shigaraki have engaged in combat as the One For All and All For One Quirks collide. Though Dark Deku was introduced in My Hero Academia Season 6, the fight is drawn out and dramatic, and it remains to be seen how much of it is incorporated here.
Season 7 has a lot to live up to as many fans regarded Season 6 as one of the greatest seasons to date. But there’s little question that the program will end in grand style if, as some have speculated, this is the last season.
