This series centers around individuals, often referred to as Vigilantes, depicted in the title itself.

When Does My Hero Academia: Vigilantes Take Place?

In the tale of “My Hero Academia: Vigilantes,” we find ourselves five years before the start of the primary storyline, implying that the happenings depicted were taking place when Deku was around nine years old.

As a bystander, I can confirm that, while not penned by the initial creator, the series titled “Vigilantes” falls within the realm of the My Hero Academia universe’s canon. Interestingly enough, Koichi Hagane himself makes an entrance in the climactic chapters of the original manga. Consequently, it seems plausible that we might see him again in the upcoming season of My Hero Academia, as this new installment is expected to delve into the final chapter of the tale.

Where to Watch My Hero Academia: Vigilantes

In various regions such as the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, along with numerous countries in Latin America, Europe, Africa, the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), Oceania, the Middle East, India and its neighboring countries, as well as Southeast Asia, “Vigilantes” is currently available for streaming on Crunchyroll.

In areas where the service is provided, Crunchyroll broadcasts the content. Moreover, since the company is also accessible through Amazon Prime Video, enthusiasts can also view it there, given they possess accounts with both Prime Video and Crunchyroll.

Additionally, the series “Vigilantes” can be streamed on Netflix in specific Asian regions, which include Hong Kong, India, and South Korea.

Is My Hero Academia: Vigilantes Dubbed on Crunchyroll?

Luckily, the dubbed episodes of “My Hero Academia: Vigilantes” are released simultaneously with their subtitled counterparts. This isn’t typical for most anime series, but simultaneous dubbing has become increasingly prevalent in modern times.

On the other hand, swift-dubbing is available in just a select group of languages, namely English, Spanish, Portuguese, Castilian, French, Italian and German (which are primarily European languages as of now). These dubbings bring back familiar voices from past performances of characters in “My Hero Academia”.

There’s a chance that Crunchyroll might include dubbed versions of the series in different languages at some point, however, they haven’t made an official announcement about this yet.

Can You Watch Vigilantes Without Watching The Original Series?

Despite being linked to the primary storyline of “My Hero Academia”, “Vigilantes” can also be enjoyed independently. This makes it accessible for those who haven’t delved into the main series yet, but are interested in giving this spin-off a shot. Since it functions as a standalone tale, newcomers will find it easy to follow without needing prior knowledge.

My Hero Academia is available to stream on Crunchyroll, subbed and dubbed in many languages.
