Among the numerous new-gen anime series, one that many fans often deem the best is none other than My Hero Academia. Filled with action, suspense, and a well-crafted storyline, the series has become a massive hit among the audience, who desperately need more and more seasons.
Luckily, the wait will not be long since season 7 will be released on May 4, 2024.

According to the trailer, characters like Deku, Bakugo, Uraraka, and many others will reprise their roles in the upcoming installment.
Which character would be returning for My Hero Academia’s 7th season?
The story penned by Kohei Horikoshi is one of the most well-known anime franchises in the world and has a massive fanbase spread across the world. Many enthusiasts believe My Hero Academia is the best new-gen anime series, which may be partially true considering the success of the manga.
My Hero Academia is a renowned anime that is expected to conclude its story before 2025; the manga is currently in its final stretch. However, the anime still has much ground to cover, and it will likely take more years and many seasons before it concludes.
The 6th season of the franchise concluded in 2023, comprising 25 episodes filled with action, battles, and deaths. Season 7 was announced in 2023, with the anime company later revealing the May 2024 release date at Jump Festa 2024 in December.
Season 7 is just around the corner and will reignite the battles between Deku and Shigaraki. However, many fans are curious about which characters will return to the series for the latest season.

What happened in season 6 of My Hero Academia?
Season 6 of My Hero Academia was filled with intense battles involving the Hero Society and the League of Villians. Many fan-favorite characters perished in the battle to protect the world from Shigaraki and this crew.
The League of Villains managed to set free All For One, who ravaged many places, resulting in high casualties. We also saw Deku leaving everything behind as he set his path astray because he believed he was the reason for all of the problems.
However, his friends from class 1-A refuse to give up on him and bring him back to UA, where they now discuss the plan on how to stop the villains.
All Might has also requested foreign aid, and now one of the strongest heroes in the world is making her way towards Japan to eradicate the villains and restore law and justice.
