Despite its fame, My Hero Academia isn’t one of those super-long manga series that goes on for decades. Kohei Horikoshi’s series started in July 2014 and wrapped up in August 2024. While the manga has ended, fans can still enjoy the anime, which is currently in its seventh season. But with the anime now tackling the Final War Arc, people are wondering if there will be an eighth season.
When Will My Hero Academia Season 8 Come Out?
Right now, there’s no confirmed release date for Season 8 of My Hero Academia. Since the manga is finished, we know exactly how much of the story remains to be adapted, and with the anime nearing the end, it’s unlikely that the series will wrap up neatly in one more season.
Season 8 would probably be much shorter than previous ones, given how few episodes are left. Instead of another short season, a final movie could be a great way to conclude the story. While some critics feel the series lost its spark in the later manga chapters, a cinematic finale could give the series a grand send-off and remind fans why they loved it.
When Season 8 does come out, whether as a traditional season or a movie, you’ll be able to stream it on Crunchyroll. In the meantime, you can finish reading the manga or catch up on the latest anime episodes.
