This article contains spoilers from the My Hero Academia series.

My Hero Academia fans are having a lot of mixed feelings right now, and for good reason. While a final season of the anime is coming soon, it also means the entire series is ending. Knowing that such a beloved story like My Hero Academia is officially over is upsetting, even though fans are excited to see how it all concludes. Fortunately, fans can expect a satisfying ending to the series.

For fans eager for more content from the My Hero Academia universe, the *Vigilantes* anime will continue. However, My Hero Academia isn’t disappearing completely, as Shueisha has other series ready to take its place, including *Kagurabachi*. Shueisha is hoping *Kagurabachi* will be a huge hit when its anime adaptation is released in 2026, and all signs point to that happening soon.

My Hero Academia Anime Will Be Replaced By Kagurabachi

My Hero Academia Anime Will Conclude Soon

  • My Hero Academia Season 8 will end the Final War
  • MHA will be replaced by the next big Shonen Jump hit

Fans of *My Hero Academia* are aware the story is nearing its end. As the climactic Final War progresses, the conclusion is approaching quickly. Season 8 will be short and will officially wrap up Izuku Midoriya’s journey, along with the conflicts between all the heroes and villains.

Okay, so picture this: it all comes down to *us* becoming the heroes we always dreamed of! That’s what Izuku said at the very end of My Hero Academia, and honestly, it gives me chills just thinking about it. It’s not about one person saving the day, but *all* of us rising up to be the best heroes we can be. It’s such a powerful message!

Now that the My Hero Academia anime has finished, fans are eager to find a new series to fill the void. My Hero Academia was incredibly popular, so it’s a tough act to follow! Luckily, it looks like the new Jump series, Kagurabachi, is getting an anime adaptation, and fans who follow Jump are already very excited about it.

The popular manga *Kagurabachi* is confirmed to be adapted into an anime series by Cygames Pictures, with a release planned for 2026, and early looks suggest it will be a visually impressive show. With *My Hero Academia* taking a break in 2026, *Kagurabachi* is stepping in as a new Shonen anime, and fans have a lot to look forward to. While *Kagurabachi* has a more serious tone than *My Hero Academia*, it should reassure fans concerned about the future of the Shonen genre after *My Hero Academia* concludes.

“Hold your head high, Midoriya! You deserve this.” — All Might said as he presented Izuku with his new Hero Armor.

Kagurabachi Anime Is Lined Up For 2026

Shonen Jump Is In Safe Hands

With the conclusion of a popular anime series, fans are already looking forward to the next big thing, and many believe Kagurabachi is poised to take its place. While it won’t be exactly like My Hero Academia, and might not reach the same level of quality, Kagurabachi shows a lot of promise. Fans are eagerly anticipating the anime’s release next year to see what creator Hokazono has in store.

The *My Hero Academia* manga finished its run after 431 chapters, and you can read them all on Manga Plus. The anime adaptation is still ongoing and its final season is expected to premiere later this year. You can stream the series on Crunchyroll.
