After all, My Hero Academia has confirmed its next episode will be titled “Dabi Dance”, and that means a lot to manga readers.

Dabi’s Spotlight

Of course, the anime has prompted a fair number of theories about Dabi, so fans are geeking out over the ordeal. The biggest theory to date suggests Dabi is connected to the Todoroki family from way back when. In fact, season five left many convinced Dabi was secretly Endeavor’s son as the situation surrounding Touya’s death was suspicious. And of course, Dabi is freaking out fans as episode ten promises to show the villain confronting Japan’s number one hero.

Now for those who have read the manga, they will know “Dabi Dance” even if the name isn’t familiar. The next episode of season six is already trending globally as it promises to out his backstory. At long last, fans are going to learn what made Dabi into the anarchist we know, and it is because of his upbringing. Dabi was once Touya Todoroki, and now, the villain is ready to show the world just how unheroic pros can be when the cameras aren’t on them.

If you are ready to catch this big episode, “Dabi Dance” will go live this Saturday, and you can catch the episode on either Hulu or Crunchyroll. As for the manga, the series is toeing into its final act, so you can read new chapters each week on the Shonen Jump app.
