What could be the plot of ‘My Hero Academia’ season 7?
If you haven’t finished the six seasons yet, beware of spoilers ahead!
My Hero Academia is hurtling towards its final chapter. Season 6 left fans reeling with a string of explosive arcs, culminating in the chilling escape of the series’ arch-villain, All for One, who has now amassed a legion of nefarious cohorts. But what twists and turns lie ahead?
Season 7 of the anime is poised to dive headfirst into the aftermath of All for One’s resurgence, with the anticipated introduction of the American hero, Star and Stripe. If the anime stays true to the manga, viewers can expect a showdown of epic proportions as Star and Stripe confront All for One, leading to cataclysmic consequences.
The Star and Stripe arc, originating from chapter 329 of the manga, promises intense battles and heart-wrenching losses, setting the stage for a gripping narrative. Additionally, the final season is likely to delve into the treacherous territory of betrayal, as whispers circulate of a member of Class 1A turning against the very heroes they once stood beside. And let’s not forget the smouldering tensions within the Todoroki family, primed to erupt in a fiery confrontation between Dabi and Shoto, promising an emotional climax.
But perhaps most tantalising of all is the impending showdown between the forces of good and the unholy alliance of All for One and Shigaraki, heralding the beginning of the endgame, something that anime fans must watch out for in My Hero Academia season 7.
