Airdate: My Hero Academia

Season five of My Hero Academia has recently dropped on anime streaming service AnimeLab.

Class is back in session at U.A High School with Midoriya, Bakugo, Ochaco, and more returning students, promising one of the most intense years between Class 1-A and Class 1-B ever as our heroes-in-training battle it out in school.

The fifth season of the anime will be kicking off with the Joint Training Arc, which sees Class 1-A and Class 1-B’s students pitted against each other in a series of team battles that demonstrates just how much each respective class has grown. The last time we saw the students of U.A High, we were left with many questions. Season five will bring answers and action-packed stories that viewers won’t want to miss out on, including the iconic series’ 100th episode.

My Hero Academia is a Japanese anime series based on the manga series by Kohei Horikoshi. It tells the story of a young boy, Izuku Midoriya, who lives in a universe where superpowers — or “Quirks” — have become commonplace. Izuku dreams of being a hero, although he was born without superpowers. Through the help of friends, family, and heroes, Midoriya is admitted into THE prestigious high school for heroes in training. This is where his journey begins.

My Hero Academia has drawn the attention of many fans across the world, including celebrity wrestler-turned-actor John Cena, singer and songwriter Kahlid, and international pop-group BTS.

My Hero Academia is produced by Studio Bones.
