Earlier today, My Hero Academia overtook feeds around the globe as fans began hyping themselves up for chapter 296. The only issue is that the chapter did not go live today. A holiday in Japan has kept Weekly Shonen Jump off the presses this week, so the magazine will make a comeback in the new year.

Of course, that delay hasn’t stopped fans from trending the upcoming chapter online. That only got worse when alleged spoilers for the new chapter went live on social media. We won’t be disclosing those here in the interests of My Hero Academia creator Kohei Horikoshi, but fans are certainly emotional about the proposed spoilers. After all, the end of the Raid arc is upon us, and that means some hard news is going to be shared with all of Class 1-A and the world.
Fans knew this hard news was coming for a while, but its arrival seems to have caused a mountain of tweets online. If you don’t want to see them, it is best you blacklist keywords regarding the manga on social media. The official release of chapter 296 will not go live until next weekend, so My Hero Academia fans can put they guard down starting January 3, 2021.
