My Hero Academia Season 7 has revealed images of class 1-A characters ahead of its premiere on May 4. Before the anime returns, the 4-episode My Hero Academia Memories special series will air from May 4. April 6 to April 27, as revealed during the Jump Festa ’24 event.
Studio BONES is producing the animation for the series, with Kenji Nagasaki as chief director and Naomi Nakayama as director. Yosuke Kuroda is responsible for compiling the series. Hitomi Udashima and Yoshihiko Umakoshi are the character designers. Yuki Hayashi once again composes music.
The seventh season of the popular television anime series recently revealed teaser images of Deku, Bakugo, Uraraka and Todoroki along with a release date of spring 2024. In addition to the new season, the franchise is also preparing to release release a new movie, set in a destroyed society, presumably the one we saw in the sixth season of the TV anime.
The My Hero Academia anime is based on the manga by Kohei Horikoshi that has been serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump since 2014. The manga was adapted into an anime by studio BONES in 2016. Part 2 aired in 2017, continuing followed by the third season in 2018. The fourth season of the anime series began airing in fall 2019 and ended in winter 2020. The fifth season aired in 2021, while the sixth and latest season aired from October 2022 until March this year. The franchise also has three films: Two Heroes (2018), Heroes: Rising (2019) and World Heroes’ Mission (2021). A new OVA for the sixth season, titled UA Heroes Battle and focusing on a card game, was released earlier this year.
Crunchyroll is streaming the series about a society of superheroes and villains, and describes the plot as follows: Izuku has dreamed of being a hero his entire life—a lofty goal for anyone, but especially challenging for a child without superpowers. That’s right, in a world where 80% of the population possesses some kind of “superpower”, Izuku was unlucky to be born completely normal. But that wasn’t enough to stop him from enrolling in one of the most prestigious hero academies in the world.
