Crunchyroll describes the series: “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.”
The official trailer of the anime received much love from anime watchers and created excitement for My Hero Academia fans. The franchise is also expected to release the eighth and final season of My Hero Academia in October 2025.
