What This Means For My Hero Academia
As many fans know, theMHAmanga ended very recently, earlier in August. When it comes to its anime adaptation,MHA’sfinal season will be released in the fall of next year, putting an end to the series. Vigilantes could be a great way for fans of the series to still have something to watch, if it gets more seasons, that is. All of that will depend on its reception amongMHAfans, and how good it does overall, especially since the series has a darker tone compared to the original manga.
A new protagonist, as well as a bunch of new characters, might be a lot to digest at first. Nevertheless,MHA fans should be excited for the Vigilantesanime adaptation in 2025.
