Season 6 is nothing short of a triumph for My Hero Academia. After a lackluster fifth season it introduces two new story arcs, Paranormal Liberation War and Dark Hero, match the best moments of the entire show to date – and even surpass them at times with stunning action animation and some emotional character moments that show how much these young heroes have come. That’s all while fulfilling the promise of a world full of heroes and the consequences that would have on society by deepening the lore and worldbuilding of the anime. This is My Hero Academia at its peak.
Based on the best-selling manga by Kōhei Horikoshi, My Hero Academia has always thrived when presenting Horikoshi's unique take on American superhero comic books and illustrating the small and large ways having 80% of the population become superpowered would impact society. Heroes as complacent celebrities who care more about sponsors than saving people (but without the depravity of The Boys) and a public that treats them as idols or just cops are ideas that have always been slowly brewing, and season 6 brings every plotline and theme to an explosive boil.
After a promising premiere that teased an Avengers: Endgame-style team-up of every single hero we've seen (and some we haven't), season 6 essentially delivered two big stories with different tones that succeed in equal measure: an all-out assault on the League of Villains and the Meta Liberation Army, and the aftermath of that battle as superhero society crumbles and peoples’ faith in heroes disappears.

Then there's All Might, the former Number-One hero, the Symbol of Peace. This season makes it clear he is at least partially responsible for heroes becoming complacent and for civilians dehumanizing heroes and turning them into idols. To see his sense of guilt and regret, and his powerlessness – despite having been the most powerful man in the world – results in a complex character story and one of the best Superman stories in years that doesn't feature Clark Kent. And yet, the finale makes it clear that All Might is no failure. He is the biggest hero not because of what he does, but because of how he inspires others to follow him.
We're headed into the final act of My Hero Academia, to the moment where the story becomes global and the fate of our heroes is decided. This show has been full of highs and lows, but season 6 reminds us of why this anime is so popular and proves there are still many reasons to be excited about its conclusion.
My Hero Academia season 6 brings this popular anime to its peak. It gives us some of the best fight scenes in the entire show, but also some of its hardest-hitting emotional moments. We see the climax of several character arcs, some earth-shattering revelations, and a shift in tone that's both exciting and fitting with the themes of the story.

May 7, 2024 · My Hero Academia Season 7 Premiere Review. Review scoring. A season premiere full of action, some character development, and one hell of a cool character introduction.
plus ultra!! I came upon my hero academia on a whim. I had seen user ratings that said it was the bomb but he story seemed very generic and unrealistic, In truth it is the opposite. This show is defiantly in my top ten anime and even show list. You don't have to like anime to watch this show at all.
