Attention, My Hero Academia fans! Strap in for a thrilling ride as the seventh season of the beloved manga-turned-anime kicks off with a bang. The latest arc, dubbed the Star and Stripe arc, plunges us straight into the action with the intense showdown between Shigaraki and Star and Stripe, America’s top hero. As the manga enthusiasts among us eagerly anticipate what lies ahead, let’s delve into some predictions for the season’s trajectory.
First up, let’s talk coverage. Season 7 dives headfirst into the Star and Stripe arc, compressing its six-chapter narrative into a whirlwind two-episode spectacle. With the anime pacing at breakneck speed, it’s all but certain that the upcoming U.A. Traitor Arc, spanning eight chapters in the manga, will follow suit, likely unfolding over the next 2-3 episodes. Brace yourselves, as this arc promises to unveil the elusive traitor lurking within U.A.
Now, onto the burning question: how much ground will Season 7 cover? With 21 episodes slated for the season and only one arc remaining in the manga—the sprawling Final War Arc spanning a staggering 80 chapters and counting—speculation runs rife among fans. Many anticipate that the season will wrap up just shy of the final showdowns, halting around chapter 386 of the manga. This strategic move would set the stage for a climactic Season 8, teeming with heart-pounding action and gut-wrenching emotion.
As the manga hurtles towards its epic conclusion, with chapter 422 igniting the long-awaited clash between Izuku Midoriya and All For One, anticipation reaches fever pitch. While the spoilers provided here are speculative and should be taken with a grain of salt, one thing’s for certain: the My Hero Academia fandom is in for a wild ride. So, buckle up and stay tuned for more updates from Pinkvilla on all things anime and manga!
