My Hero Academia is rounding out a very intense year for the series as both the anime and manga releases have been working their way through huge wars between the heroes and villains, and the anime is deciding to ring in 2023 with some special new art of the Rabbit Hero Mirko! It’s been a pretty big year for the fan favorite hero as Season 6 saw her taking on the center stage of the first few episodes as she was the first real one to take on Tomura Shigaraki and All For One’s powerful new Nomu, and she’ll likely have just as big of a year in 2023 too.ย

A good sign of that is the fact that 2023 is the year of the Rabbit in the Chinese Zodiac, and thus My Hero Academia‘s anime is using the occasion to highlight Mirko in some fun new art to celebrate New Year’s Day. It’s yet to be revealed whether or not she’s going to play a role in the anime or the manga in the year to come, but for now starting off the year by putting Mirko in the spotlight is a good way to kick off this next major year.
