My Hero Academia is, undoubtedly, one of the most beloved and recognizable shonen series out there. Kohei Horikoshi is quite a beloved figure among fans. After all, he’s behind the immersive universe of MHA, as well as its fascinating characters. While My Hero Academia ran for quite a long time, Horikoshi ended his manga last year, in late 2024. This was quite a sad day for the fans, even though everyone knew it was coming with the final battle closing.

Fans Can Still Catch It In August

Many fans might just be learning about My Hero Academia’s art exhibition. This art exhibition was a huge event for fans of the series but wasn’t accessible to everyone. This event took place in Tokyo, Japan. Specifically, it was at the CREATIVE MUSEUM TOKYO.

The exhibition is still ongoing, so fans who haven’t had the opportunity to visit still have a chance. It opened its doors on June 21 and will last until the end of this month, August 31.

This art exhibition features never-before-seen illustrations from Horikoshi, many of them showing the MHA characters after the events of the manga, in their adult lives.

The My Hero Academia manga was concluded with 431 chapters for fans to read. All these chapters can be found on Manga Plus. When it comes to the anime, this series is still awaiting its final season, which will be released later this year, on October 4. The series can be watched on Crunchyroll.

In My Hero Academia, some humans have superpowers called quirks. Izuku Midoriya, nicknamed Deku, is not one of them. Deku has always idolized heroes like the number one hero, All Might, and since he was a child, he has always wanted to be a hero. However, his lack of a quirk has always held him back, but a chance encounter with All Might after discovering a classmate in danger sets Deku on the path to becoming a true hero. My Hero Academia centers around Deku and a class of heroes-in-training at UA. This school shapes young quirk users into future heroes through fake rescue missions, combat training, and other hero-tempering tasks. With young Deku inheriting the "One-For-All" quirk, he will learn what it means to be a true hero while facing off with dastardly supervillains.
