In other My Hero Academia news, the Final Act of the My Hero Academia manga has been getting ready for the series’ grand finale, and series creator Kohei Horikoshi revealed last December that the series would likely end within a year should everything go as planned. It’s yet to be revealed as to whether or not the creator has been keeping up with this potential schedule, but the creator’s special message to fans with the release of Volume 34 seems to suggest that the final moments of the series are drawing nearer than ever. 

“I feel like I can finally see the goal in sight,” Horikoshi began in the message shared with Volume 34’s release. “It’s a rather strange feeling getting to this point. In the past, I would just be drawing without a single care [for the future], but now I wonder just how many more times can I draw these characters? Change is scary as you grow older. Well, I really shouldn’t dwell on that! Until next volume then!”

As for the My Hero Academia anime, season 6 is expected to arrive this fall.
