Is the My Hero Academia Manga Over?

My Hero Academia will end on Aug. 5, 2024, with the release of Chapter 430. On June 24 the announcement was made that this would be the end date for the massively popular Shonen series after finishing its final arc earlier in 2024 and entering its epilogue.

The epilogue that began in Chapter 424 looks to bring everything to a natural close. While the fighting is over, we’re slowly getting a look into the new lives of both civilians and the heroes we all know and love. Each chapter in the epilogue appears to focus on a new character, so expect more surprises as we approach the end.

It isn’t clear who will be the focus of these chapters as there definitely isnā€™t a lot left to tell. Weā€™ve seen all of the loose threads tie themselves off in the previous chapters, but the more insight into what will happen once the series is over the better.

Of course, the anime for My Hero Academia still has plenty of juice and while Season 7 is airing right now there will still be more seasons to air after its conclusion. Basically, if youā€™re an anime-only fan youā€™ve still got years of My Hero content to go.

In the meantime, you can relax knowing there are new additions to this story still being made each week through Shonen Jump Magazine, until August. Once it’s over, the entire series will be available to binge read via Viz Media.
