On Wednesday, December 6, 2023, the latest edition of Weekly Shonen Jump Magazine, Issue #2 2024, unveiled a fresh visual for the upcoming season of My Hero Academia, signaling the arrival of My Hero Academia season 7. The announcement confirmed that the seventh season is set to debut in Spring 2024, specifically in April.
My Hero Academia, penned and illustrated by Kohei Horikoshi, originated as a Japanese manga series that commenced serialization in Shueisha’s Weekly Shōnen Jump in July 2014.

Concurrently, it has been adapted into an anime by BONES, with six seasons already released and the seventh season eagerly anticipated for its premiere in 2024.
My Hero Academia Season 7 Visual Confirms 2024 Premiere
The culmination of My Hero Academia season 6 in March 2023 was accompanied by the revelation of the anime’s seventh season, accompanied by a teaser visual showcasing Izuku Midoriya (Deku).
Continuing the momentum, a fresh visual has now emerged in Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump Issue #2 2024. This latest visual unveils that My Hero Academia season 7 is slated for release in Spring 2024, pinpointing April 2024 as the premiere month.
The recently revealed visual showcases prominent characters, including Izuku Midoriya, Katsuki Bakugo, Ochaco Uraraka, and Shoto Todoroki. All four characters exhibit seemingly uniform designs, with the exception of Ochaco, who is depicted wearing a white shirt layered over her hero costume.
What to Expect From My Hero Academia Season 7?
The conclusion of My Hero Academia season 6 introduced Star and Stripe, the top-ranking hero in the USA, who arrived to confront the imminent threat posed by Tomura Shigaraki’s impending acquisition of All For One’s powers. With All Might seeking assistance from international heroes to counter this formidable villain, Star and Stripe promptly answered the call, making her way to Japan to support the cause.
Given Star and Stripe’s status as the No. 1 Hero in the USA, expectations are high regarding the potency of her quirk, New Order. This anticipation leads to the speculation that Tomura might target her in an attempt to aid his master, All For One, in the quest to acquire her extraordinary quirk. Consequently, fans can anticipate My Hero Academia season 7 to revolve around the intense confrontation between Star and Stripe and Tomura Shigaraki.
Following this pivotal battle, the anime is likely to delve into the subsequent story arc. However, the exact number of episodes for My Hero Academia season 7 remains undisclosed. As a result, it remains uncertain whether the Star and Stripe Arc will be the sole focus of the upcoming season or if it will be succeeded by additional story arcs.
