My Hero Academia: Vigilantes

The second half of this anime season for My Hero Academia: Vigilantes is heating up, as it approaches its conclusion in Spring 2025. The teaser for the upcoming episode promises even more excitement, with Koichi Haimawari finding himself in a high-speed pursuit. This spin-off series delves deeper into the grittier side of the hero world presented in the main My Hero Academia series. Unlike Izuku Midoriya and his classmates from Class 1-A, Koichi has been encountering criminal elements that are far more complex than those they encountered during their time together.

The anime series “My Hero Academia: Vigilantes” is ramping up as it introduces new characters like Makoto Tsukauchi and Captain Celebrity in the most recent episode. This development will significantly alter Koichi’s life, as he was previously a vigilante with some local recognition around Naruhata, but now he’s about to find himself embroiled in much larger issues moving forward. As suggested by the trailer for “My Hero Academia: Vigilantes” Episode 9, which you can watch in the video above, these upcoming episodes promise more excitement and challenges ahead.

How to Watch My Hero Academia: Vigilantes Episode 9

My Hero Academia: Vigilantes Episode 9 – Mom’s Arrival!”

In Japan, this thrilling episode titled “Mom’s Arrival!” will premiere on Monday, May 2nd. For viewers outside of Japan, you can catch it exclusively on Crunchyroll when it becomes available! Here’s a sneak peek at the episode synopsis:

“Koichi’s most formidable adversary, his mother Shouko, has arrived! Trying to impress her, Koichi asks Makoto to pretend to be his girlfriend. However, Shouko quickly discovers his ruse. To divert suspicion, Makoto proposes a day out in Asakusa, but the tour bus they’re on suddenly malfunctions! Ingenium and others jump into action to save them. But in the chaos, Makoto is accidentally left behind on the bus!

In the final moments of the latest episode of My Hero Academia: Vigilantes, we were introduced to Koichi’s mother for the first time in the anime series. She expressed curiosity about his university life, unaware that he leads a double life as a vigilante, associating with an eccentric old man and a popular underground musician. Given her conservative background, it’s likely she wouldn’t approve of his current lifestyle. However, despite his efforts to conceal his secret identity, trouble still finds its way to Koichi.

What’s Next for My Hero Academia: Vigilantes?

In my opinion, one of the most captivating aspects of “My Hero Academia: Vigilantes” is how it delves deeper into the intricate workings of the hero system, a topic only hinted at in the main series. It all kicks off with Makoto’s introduction to the storyline. This series doesn’t shy away from portraying Captain Celebrity as a prime example of the hero system’s questionable nature – he’s essentially here to polish his tarnished image due to scandals in the U.S., not to save lives. Moreover, Koichi’s journey will blur the lines between vigilantism and heroism, making it evident that the divide isn’t as wide as it seems.

With each escalating episode, Koichi’s fame in the hero community is set to skyrocket due to his increasingly intense battles. However, since he operates independently of the system, Koichi resorts to unlawful acts to combat crime. This unconventional approach puts him at risk, as both potential villains and the police may target him. Keep up with all episodes of “My Hero Academia: Vigilantes” now on Crunchyroll.
