My Hero Academia Season 6 OVAs Arrive in Japan

By Evan Valentine

My Hero Academia is set to make a major comeback with the War Arc taking place this fall as the sixth season by Studio BONES hits the small screen. Before we see Shigaraki and his forces return to destroy Hero Society, the heroes of Class 1-A are set to receive a major breather via two new OVAs that have just released into theaters in Japan. Needless to say, these two adventures are quite different from what we are set to see from the main series.   

Hero League Baseball sees the students, and teachers, of UA Academy participating in a friendly scrimmage with one another on the ball field, while the other original video animation explores the new adventure within the internship that Deku, Bakugo, and Shoto Todoroki participated in within Endeavor's hero agency. While an official release date for North America has yet to be revealed for these specials, fans will have the opportunity to check them out at this year's Anime Expo taking place the weekend of July 4th and set to not just reveal new info regarding My Hero Academia, but many other anime franchises. 

The Twitter Account Shibuya Smash shared some images from one of the theaters that is currently playing the two My Hero Academia specials, featuring the many heroes of Class 1-A in some particularly wild situations that might not have made the main series proper from BONES:

What might come as unfortunate news to many fans of My Hero Academia is that Kohei Horikoshi is currently working on the Final Arc of the series within the pages of the Shonen's manga, pitting the heroes of Class 1-A against the nearly invincible forces of All For One's forces. With a few of the major battles having already come to an end, it will be interesting to see which heroes and villains are able to survive the series and how the world of Hero Society changes as a result of the last conflict. 

Are you excited for these two new specials that expand on the world of My Hero Academia? Feel free to let us know in the comments or hit me up directly on Twitter @EVComedy to talk all things comics, anime, and the world of UA Academy.
