This article contains spoilers from the My Hero Academia series.
My Hero Academia is currently airing its final season and fans know very well that this year, they'll have to say goodbye to this legendary series. MHA Season 8 is already halfway through, and given how short it is, fans have already prepared themselves for the inevitable, which is the end of the series. That said, My Hero Academia fans still have exciting things to look forward to. It has just been announced that My Hero Academia is preparing for a big Jump Festa 2026 stage and that there will be a surprise announcement for the series.

Deku is the protagonist of MHA, but he has been surpassed by this character.
With My Hero Academia approaching its end, it is highly likely that this upcoming announcement could pertain to what the future holds in store for the series. At the moment, fans already know that 2026 will give them the second season of My Hero Academia Vigilantes, but there could be more than just that in store for them. Perhaps, the anime of My Hero Academia ending won't mark the end of the franchise after all. There could still be big things to look forward to.

- My Hero Academia fans hope for a new project announcement
- My Hero Academia could get a new movie
Despite having ended a year ago, My Hero Academia will get its own stage at Jump Festa 2026. This isn't out of the ordinary, but it is certainly something that gives a lot of fans hope for what's to come next.

Japan Already Has The Perfect Replacement For My Hero Academia
MHA ended, but a new replacement for it has risen in Japan.
Usually, fans would expect anime content to be teased at Jump Festa, but now, My Hero Academia's anime is ending already, so it makes the fans wonder what exactly could be announced during this stage.
What's more, it is now official that My Hero Academia will make a big surprise announcement during the Jump Festa stage. Whatever exactly this announcement is remains to be seen, but there is certainly hope for My Hero Academia to continue. Despite the manga having ended, My Hero Academia could still get more content in the form of movies, which could be supervised by Horikoshi himself.
Perhaps, there are some even bigger projects planned. It'll all become clear in under two months. Jump Festa 2026 is scheduled for December 21, 2025, so fans don't have to wait too long to find out what the announcement is about.
Fans Hope For An Update On Horikoshi's New Manga
Horikoshi Could Return In 2026
Along with big anime projects that could be announced during My Hero Academia's Jump Festa 2026 stage, there is also Horikoshi's manga to look forward to. Fans know very well that Kohei Horikoshi is starting another manga. He's made this desire clear already, and he even revealed some surface-level plans for what he intends to do next. It is more than likely that Kohei Horikoshi will return with his new manga in 2026, and it is possible that this manga could be teased during Jump Festa 2026.
That doesn't necessarily mean that it'll be connected to My Hero Academia in any way, however. It is highly likely that Horikoshi's new manga is going to be completely independent from My Hero Academia. Still, there is a small chance that it could be connected to it in some way, just as JJK Modulo was announced as a sequel to JJK. Either way, fans will find out more information in December, when Jump Festa officially begins.
The My Hero Academia manga 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 now airing its final Season, MHA Season 8, which will consist of 12 episodes in total. The series can be watched on Crunchyroll.
