My Hero Academia - Anime Rendition (Pre-Air Discussions)

[PicardMan]

I'm pretty excited for the new season. As far as I know, Crunchyroll still doesn't have the dub available on their website yet, but hopefully that will change before the new season premieres.

Dub is on a different show page than the series as a whole. For some reason, they do that with Attack on Titan's dub too. They have it.

Watch My Hero Academia (Dubs)

Izuku has dreamt of being a hero all his life—a lofty goal for anyone, but especially challenging for a kid with no superpowers. That’s right, in a world where eighty percent of the population has some kind of super-powered “quirk,” Izuku was unlucky enough to be born completely normal. But...

Oh that makes way more sense. Thank you. Given how popular the series is, I figured that they would have uploaded it from the Funimation website pretty quickly, but I could only find the Japanese version. Some of their other titles include tabs for subs and dubs, so I assumed that was going to be the case for the series too.

8/5: Not a shocker but MHA season 6 confirmed for CR starting October 1.

8/6: Minute trailer released.


8/15: Non-spoiler details from Season 6 screening.

 

[PicardMan]

Yay, no recap episode and it sounds like the animation quality for the first episode of this season is going to be better than the last few episodes of season 5. Hoping it can stay consistent throughout.

Another trailer released.

 

[Gold Guy]

Promising trailer. The animation looks pretty good so far.

9/24: Minor note but season 6's airing confirmed to be in 2 cours.

10/8: English dub for MHA season 6 starts October 15.

After years of watching on Toonami, it might even feel a bit weird following the dub on Crunchyroll.

I'm hyped for the dub Hopefully, the talkback threads for MHA season 6 won't be the ghost town Mob Psycho 100's is. It feels like Toonzoners seem to only want to talk about anime if it airs on Toonami and former Toonami franchises like Demon Slayer and Mob Psycho 100 get hardly any discussion over here in the anime forum. Let's see if the Toonami forum peeps show up here for the talkback thread or not.

To be fair, I wonder how many people in this forum even have Crunchyroll accounts…

There's a lot of Toonami forum regulars who don't so much as set foot in the anime forum. Probably not a lot. Most of the talkback threads here aren't very active, with the exception of the SpyXFamily thread. The subtitled episodes of season 6 are also on Hulu. Really, I'm not expecting the Toonami forum peeps to migrate here for season 6.

From the front page of AnimeSuperhero.com:

"My Hero Academia has a panache for paying homage to American comic books and their assorted tropes. One trope we haven’t really seen is the evil counterpart. Flash has Professor Zoom/Reverse Flash, Green Lantern has Sinestro, Superman has Bizarrro, but now it appears that All Might finally has his own evil twin with a similar appearance and powers.

The newest trailer for the fourth My Hero Academia movie My Hero Academia: You’re Next. reveals the villain Dark Might, who is voiced by All Might’s voice actor Kenta Miyake. He made an appearance in a previous trailer, but we finally know his name now with this new trailer. Most likely, the dub will follow suit and have Chris Sabat voice both All Might and Dark Might. Here is our first look at Dark Might, the newest addition to the franchise’s rogue’s gallery:"
