My Hero Academia,” an exceptionally successful manga series, remains a popular topic of discussion even after its conclusion. Notably, it has spurred spinoffs, with the anime adaptation receiving high praise, leading to speculation about a second season. The mastermind behind this phenomenon is Kohei Horikoshi, whose exceptional writing and artwork continue to captivate and motivate numerous readers.

Kōhei Horikoshi put in an immense amount of effort into “My Hero Academia,” a story that left an indelible mark in history as one of the most successful tales ever told. However, Horikoshi isn’t finished yet. In fact, the creator is already working on another series, and preparations for it are underway. Get ready, because Kōhei Horikoshi’s next manga is coming soon, and it promises to be nothing short of extraordinary!

The End Of My Hero Academia Was Fulfilling

  • My Hero Academia Ended With The Final War
  • Horikoshi Has Dropped Two One-shots Since

As I watched, the climactic battle in My Hero Academia drew near when Horikoshi unveiled the impending Final War against All For One. By this point, fans were already deeply immersed in the world of My Hero Academia, and the author heightened our anticipation by ramping up the storytelling quality even further. The Final War in My Hero Academia unfolded as a fierce conflict between the Paranormal Liberation Front and All For One, with the heroes squaring off against them. Despite the war’s intense challenges, the heroes ultimately prevailed through sheer determination, with both the new and old generations working together to secure victory.

Indeed, the main character from the show was instrumental throughout and ultimately made a selfless move by relinquishing his Quirk to permanently banish All For One. In essence, Deku concluded the conflict and left an indelible mark on history with this action, forfeiting his quirk as well. The finale of My Hero Academia stirred mixed emotions among viewers, but it wasn’t the end of the story. Later on, Horikoshi released two additional stories related to the series too.

This is the story of how I became the greatest Hero! — Izuku Midoriya

In the following chapters, readers gained insights into the future careers of Class 1-A students as they evolved into strong Pro Heroes. Simultaneously, the narrative cleverly brought Deku back to his heroic status, aided by his friends’ support. Moreover, Deku and Ochaco’s relationship deepened, and to add to the excitement, fans were given a peek into Eri’s life in the latest one-shot. To top it all off, the new rankings of Bakugo and Deku as heroes were disclosed, marking the conclusion of My Hero Academia.

Horikoshi Has Already Begun Work On His New Manga

Fans Should Expect Horikoshi’s Next Manga Soon

Even though “My Hero Academia” has concluded, Horikoshi isn’t taking a long break. Instead, he’s already started working on his next manga, and this was confirmed by him several months ago. Since then, it’s likely that he’s made significant progress. At first, Horikoshi mentioned that he would only focus on the art for his upcoming manga, but now it has been revealed that he will also be writing it. Here is what Horikoshi shared:

I’m incredibly grateful for the success of MHA, which has placed a significant amount of pressure on me regarding my next project. Eager to move forward, I intend to initiate a new manga as soon as time allows. Initially, I considered focusing solely on drawing and having someone else pen the story, but my editor suggested that it would be more effective if I took on both roles. Given this advice, I’ve begun gradually writing and sketching the initial sketches for my upcoming manga.

Horikoshi’s Next Manga Could Surpass My Hero Academia

It’s no secret that “My Hero Academia” was a massive hit, but it’s possible that Horikoshi’s next manga could be just as impressive, if not even surpassing it. Interestingly, Horikoshi has learned a great deal more about Jump since the beginning of “My Hero Academia.” Moreover, he’s now a well-respected author, and with his extensive experience, there’s no telling what he might create next.

As a die-hard fan, I can’t help but feel exhilarated about Horikoshi’s upcoming manga! He’s brimming with unrealized ideas, and if his past hints are any indication, we’re in for a chilling twist. The creator himself has expressed a desire to infuse horror elements into his next tales. Now, imagine a darker narrative, rich with captivating character development, reminiscent of My Hero Academia. This promises to be a series that will reel fans in from the very first chapter, and that’s precisely why every MHA enthusiast should be buzzing with anticipation for Horikoshi’s next masterpiece!
