Summary
One major topic of discussion surroundingMy Hero Academiaseason 7has been where it can be expected to end. With how much of the manga was left to cover, it was unlikely ever to be the final season, and with it being a shorter season than most thanks to having four weeks of recap specials, it was even harder to figure out how much season 7 would cover.
The exact length ofMy Hero Academiaseason 7hasn’t been given, but the most recent episode does provide the biggest hint of where it will end. Season 7, episode #10 saw the introduction of a new theme song for season 7; in typical anime fashion, the theme song was filled with spoilers, and because of that,My Hero Academia’s new theme song gave a good idea of where season 7 is likely to end.
Thanks to that, it’s much easier for people to know what to expect not only of season 7, but of what will inevitably come after.
My Hero Academia Season 7 Will Almost Finish The Manga’s Final Arc
My Hero Academia Season 7’s Final Act, Explained
The new opening theme forMy Hero Academiaseason 7 references numerous fights set to happen later in the manga, and most notably, the opening shows All Might in his suit of armor fightingAll For One de-aged after using Eri’s Quirk, a fight that doesn’t play out until late into the final arc. Add in the opening referencing Stain’s reappearance, which didn’t happen until the end of the fight, andMy Hero Academia’s new opening suggests that season 7 will cover everything up to All For One’s death, meaning it will end after adapting volume #40 of the manga.
My Hero Academiaseason 7 ending after the final fight against All For One also makes sense when considering previous seasons of the anime. Nearly every season has covered roughly 5-7 volumes of the manga, and since season 7 started with volume #34,My Hero Academiaseason 7 ending after volume #40 would match the pacing of previous seasons. Season 7’s shorter length also wouldn’t be an issue, as the structure of the current arc should allow for multiple chapters to be condensed into a single episode at a time with little to no issue regarding pacing.
How Will My Hero Academia’s Anime Finish Its Story?
My Hero Academiaseason 7’s ending, of course, begs the question of how the anime will finish adapting the manga. With how little of the manga will be left after season 7, a hypothetical season 8 couldn’t run for half a year like other seasons do, so with that in mind,My Hero Academia’s anime will likely end with either a shortened season 8 of about 12-13 episodes ora theatrical film.My Hero Academiaseason 7 will end sometime in October, and when it does, there will hopefully be a clearer idea of how the long-running successful anime will end.
