My Hero Academia Ending Is A Bit Controversial
My Hero Academia's new ending proved to have been polarizing. Fans either love it or hate it. There seems to be no middle ground whatsoever. Some My Hero Academia fans became so outraged by the ending that they began mass-blocking Horikoshi Kohei's X (formerly Twitter) account.
2025 will be a big year for My Hero Academia fans as the final season of the anime will be released. Additionally, two new books will also be released sometime next year. One of them is a fanbook, while the other is an artbook.
