The Okaeri, Deku! U.A. Special Stage announced on Sunday that a fourth movie for the Boku no Hero Academia (My Hero Academia) anime series is in production. The event also revealed a teaser visual (pictured).

The movie will feature an original story that's concurrent to the television anime's timeline and follow the collapse of the safe society.

Kouhei Horikoshi began the action superhero manga in Weekly Shounen Jump in July 2014. Shueisha published the 38th volume on June 2.

The first television anime aired in 13 episodes in Spring 2016, followed by five other seasons in Spring 2017, Spring 2018, Fall 2019, Spring 2021, and Fall 2022 respectively—each running for 25 episodes. The three previous movies opened in Japanese theaters in August 2018, December 2019, and August 2021. A seventh anime season is currently in production.

VIZ Media licensed the manga in English through its Shounen Jump imprint in February 2015 and serialized it in their digital Weekly Shonen Jump magazine until it was discontinued. The company's new Shounen Jump platform now simulpublishes the manga with the Japanese release. The 34th volume was shipped on May 2, while the 35th volume is scheduled to release on September 5.

here is the basic plot

It'll take place after the War from season 6, meaning that the collapsed society will be the stage this time. https://twitter.com/RukasuMHA/status/1686602178448797696

Ohh! Interesting! Thank you for the information.

I wish we knew more information. I’ve been lucky enough to watch all three movies in the cinema and it was only the most recent one I actually enjoyed. If this new one is in the same vein then I’m looking forward to it.

MHA is produced by Studio C of Bones which is one among many. Studio C works exclusively on MHA. Last year, Studio B ended Mob Psycho 100 with Season 3, and soon after it was done airing Bungou Stray dogs Season 4 which is produced by Studio D started airing. Currently Season 5 is airing.

I meant something new not the sequels.

Well they have an original anime in January, its something

Season 7 is already announced months ago and now a movie is coming... does the studio even want to work on something else??? Sure it's their cash cow but still.

See it as the creators of the JoJo adaptation. They put so much energy into successful shows that their adaptations of other shows always get a lot of positive attention.

These movies are all boring ngl. Like I feel they slowly get a little bit better than the last one but that's not saying much. Just major snooze fests like all the OVAs. Season 6 alone is probably one of the best seasons.

I wonder if the franchise will get to the level of the Gintama

What do you mean, BHA already is a joke.

I wonder if the franchise will get to the level of the Gintama, Konan or One Piece films, when there are so many and so often that it becomes a separate part of the franchise and you start to confuse whether there were any events in the movie or the show.

Gotta pump those merchandise sales.

possible the TV sequel will suffer production problems again due to movies being top priority
