Over the years, there has been a steady rise in the number of “quirks,” or newly found superpowers. It is estimated that 80% of people have some sort of ability, ranging from shapeshifting to element manipulation. The rest of the world is rendered entirely helpless as a result, and Izuku Midoriya is one such person.

The driven middle schooler has always desired nothing more than to be a hero. Izuku admires heroes and makes notes about them whenever he can because of his unfortunate circumstances. However, it appears that his perseverance has paid off because Izuku finally gets to meet All Might, his personal hero and the greatest of all time. All Might has a special talent that can be passed down through the generations, and he has designated Izuku to be his heir!

Izuku enrolls in UA High, a prestigious high school renowned for its exceptional hero training program, after enduring several months of arduous training. This year’s freshmen class looks especially promising. Izuku will soon discover the true meaning of heroism thanks to his odd but gifted classmates and the menacing menace of a sinister organization.

Where to start My Hero Academia manga after anime?
Where Does the Anime End? Where Should I Start Reading?

The anime ended at episode 159 (21 of Season 7), which corresponds to Chapter 395, 396, 397 and 398 of the manga. The adaptation covers up to this point.

After watching the anime, to continue the story in the manga, start reading from Chapter 399, which corresponds to Volume 40 (collecting chapters 399 to 410).

How To Watch My Hero Academia In Correct Order?

The Chronological Order to Watch My Hero Academia movies and ovas is as follows:

  1. OVA 1: Save! Rescue Training!: This first ova we watch after the 13 episodes of the first season.
  2. OVA 2: Training Of The Dead: This ova is located after the episode 20 of the second season.
  3. OVA 3: All Might: Rising: We watch this ova after the second season, it is a 2-minute prequel to the movie 1 My Hero Academia: Two Heroes..
  4. Movie 1: My Hero Academia: Two Heroes: We watch this movie after the second season. There is a lot of confusion regarding the order of this movie, since many believe that it goes after the 20th episode of the third season, this happens because that episode is linked to this movie (it is a special / filler, which is not adapted from the manga) , but the episode does not follow chronologically to episode 19, which is where the students already have new costumes, which we do not see in episode 20 and in the movie. Therefore, both episode 20 of the third season and movie 1 should go after the second season.
  5. OVA 4: Ikinokore! Kesshi no Survival Kunren: This ova is located after episode 14 of the third season.
  6. Movie 2: My Hero Academia: Heroes Rising: We watch this movie after the fourth season.
