My Hero Academia Spinoff Anime Renewed For Second Season
The successful spinoff to My Hero Academia will return for a second season next year, filling the void left behind by the original series’s end.
At the end of Season 1 on June 30, 2025, it was announced that the spinoff to My Hero Academia would return for a second season in 2026.
Season 1 of My Hero Academia: Vigilantes ended on Episode 13: “What a Man Takes with Him” with Chapter 30: “Cooperation Request” at the beginning of the fifth arc, the Osaka Incident Arc.
If Season 2 will also have 13 episodes, that might mean it will end on the seventh arc, the School Days Arc, which would set off a timeskip.
The final season of the original series will release on October 2025.
