My Hero Academia season 7 plot, cast & more
The anime will be available for streaming on Crunchyroll, which describes the series as follows: “Izuku has dreamt of being a hero all his life—a lofty goal for anyone, but especially challenging for a kid with no superpowers. That’s right, in a world where eighty percent of the population has some kind of super-powered ‘quirk,’ Izuku was unlucky enough to be born completely normal. But that’s not enough to stop him from enrolling in one of the world’s most prestigious hero academies.”
The previous season featured the Paranormal Liberation War and Dark Hero arcs. The Paranormal Liberation War featured some amazing fights and saw some heroes retire. After a major identity crisis, Deku returned to the U.A. because of his friends, who convinced him to return. The season ended with All Might seeking help from other nations to handle one for all and seeing his disciples, Star and Stripe, heed his call.
As for the cast, Daiki Yamashita reprises his role as Deku alongside other returning cast members. Joining them will be Romi Park, who will star as Stars and Stripe.
