Wondering about the best anime shows to watch after My Hero Academia ends? Well, you aren't alone. People who complain about superhero fatigue in Hollywood clearly haven't watched the hit anime. The story of this Japanese show— based on Kōhei Horikoshi's best-selling manga — revolves around Izuku Midoriya, a young boy who dreams of having a superpower or "quirk" in a society where such gifts are commonplace. But when he suddenly inherits the abilities of his favourite hero, All Might, Midoriya steps up and joins UA High School, where students train to become the world's number one hero.
That might sound simple enough, at first, but the show itself is anything but. Over eight seasons, My Hero Academia has evolved into a landmark series that deconstructs the entire superhero genre, playing with Western tropes through an offbeat, even quirky lens. Visually speaking, My Hero Academia goes 'Plus Ultra' too, consistently delivering some of the most detailed, impressive animation you'll ever see across the show's nine-year run.
