Sorry, My Hero Academia fans, but the end is almost here: the popular superhero manga is ending in just five chapters.
It’s been a long time coming, but as announced on the official Japanese My Hero Academia Twitter account, the Weekly Shonen Jump manga will receive its final chapter on August 5. There’s five chapters left to go, with the series currently wrapping up its final story with a mini epilogue arc. I won’t spoil how things end up for those that only watch the anime, but it’s great to know that the manga isn’t suddenly coming to an end, and that there’s time for all of the characters to reflect on their journey. These last five chapters will bring the series to a total of 430 chapters, an impressively lengthy manga, though thankfully not quite as long as something like One Piece.
In a statement (via IGN), series creator Kōhei Horikoshi said “There are just five chapters left until the manga’s end. Some might think, ‘there’s still five chapters to go?!’ while others may think, ‘just five chapters left?!’ But I’ll do my best to make sure both camps enjoy these last five chapters with Deku and the others. It was a rocky road, but I was able to draw Deku and his friends for nearly 10 years thanks to everyone who kept on reading. It was a dream. Thank you so much! Well, let’s meet again in Jump!”
