Summary My Hero Academia is finally ending after ten years, and it was recently confirmed that there are only five chapters left before it comes to a close. Assuming Kohei Horikoshi doesn’t take any more breaks, the final chapter should be released in early August, just barely past the story’s 10th anniversary and near the release of the franchise's latest movie, My Hero Academia: You're Next.
That idea plays into the manga’s usual relationship with the movies, and it adds even more excitement to the movie’s release. My Hero Academia: You’re Next gaining that sort of metatextual importance can also add more to its overall quality. One criticism of the movies has been that they tend to be light on plot and character development, and while the new movie might be the same, My Hero Academia: You’re Next serving as another type of ending to My Hero Academia can make its story feel far more engaging, at least from a meta-perspective.
