The first episode (the 139th episode in total) of the 7th season of the TV anime "My Hero Academia" (HeroAca) is set to broadcast on May 4, 2024, on Yomiuri TV and Nippon TV networks. Additionally, the first PV, composed of main footage from the 7th season, has been released.

The 7th season begins with the story from Chapter 329, recorded in Volume 34 of the original comics. After a lonely battle, Deku is inspired by his classmates' feelings and decides to fight together, not alone.

Pushing forward with the belief to "destroy everything," Tomura Shigaraki faces the great evil All For One. Centered on these two characters, heroes and villains are heading towards their final battle. Kenji Nagasaki continues as the chief director, with Naomi Nakayama, who was deeply involved in the production of the 6th season, serving as the new director.

Before the start of the 7th season's story on May 4, "My Hero Academia Memories" will be broadcasted on April 6, 13, 20, and 27, featuring important stories leading to the 7th season with new scenes added. HeroAca has gathered high support from fans for not only the heroes but also the villains, each with their own intense drama. Through "Memories," viewers can delve deeper into the inner worlds of key characters, thus further enjoying the 7th season.

Additionally, the release of the fourth movie installment in the summer of 2024 has been confirmed. The original story, supervised and designed by the manga's creator Kohei Horikoshi, is expected to follow the timeline of the TV anime closely. "This time, the setting is a society that has finally collapsed, as seen in the anime," says Horikoshi, suggesting the story will be closely related to the timeline of the 7th season's narrative.

The original work, surpassing 85 million copies in circulation, is a popular manga that has been serialized in "Weekly Shonen Jump" since July 2014. Set in a world where the existence of people with supernatural abilities, known as "Quirks," is commonplace, it follows the protagonist, Izuku Midoriya (Deku), as he strives to become a hero to protect society and fight against villains misusing their Quirks, growing alongside his classmates at the prestigious U.A. High School for heroes. The TV anime's first season began airing in April 2016, with movie versions also being released.
