My Hero Academia: You’re Next Movie Runtime Revealed

My Hero Academia: You’re Next has revealed how long the newest My Hero Academia movie will be! My Hero Academia is currently working through the final battles between the heroes and villains with its new Season 7 episodes airing this Summer, but it’s far from the only new anime release the franchise will get this Summer. My Hero Academia will be returning to screens with its fourth feature film release, and it will be filling in some of the gaps in between the events of Season 6 and Season 7 with some key battles against the villains of its own. 

My Hero Academia: You’re Next will be introducing a villainous version of All Might taking advantage of the chaos around Japan thanks to Tomura Shigaraki and All For One, and it’s only a couple of weeks from its debut in Japan this August. As it’s gearing up for its theatrical launch, My Hero Academia: You’re Next revealed that it will feature a run time of one hour and 50 minutes (as spotted by AIR_News01 on X). This is a lengthy amount of time for the film which will likely feature a ton of action when it hits theaters in Japan beginning on August 12th.
