The anime series My Hero Academia is nearing its conclusion, with only one episode remaining. Similar to the manga, the final story arc hasn’t been flawless, but it appears the series will finish strong.
The finale of My Hero Academia is expected to be good, but it might fall short of expectations. The way the second-to-last episode ended suggests the anime may be leaving out a crucial part of the story from the manga, which could make the ending feel unsatisfying and unearned.
Why My Hero Academia’s Anime Finale Has A Big Problem
The latest episode of My Hero Academia covered the first half of chapter 429. The next episode will likely finish chapter 429 and adapt chapter 430, according to the preview. However, because of how much story remains, the anime won’t be able to include chapter 431, which is the actual final chapter of the manga.
There’s talk of a special animated episode – almost like a 12th episode – that might cover chapter 431 of the manga and even include the second epilogue. However, this means fans will still have to wait longer for the complete ending of My Hero Academia, which is frustrating for both longtime viewers and newcomers.
Why My Hero Academia Chapter 431 Is So Important To The Story
The anime adaptation of My Hero Academia likely won’t conclude with chapter 431, which is more disheartening than many fans admit. A major criticism of the series’ ending was that it felt rushed, making chapter 431 particularly appreciated for providing much-needed closure, especially regarding the developing relationship between Izuku and Ochaco.
The preview for the final episode hints that it will build upon the manga’s ending, potentially addressing some of the original’s shortcomings. However, leaving out chapter 431 significantly diminishes what made the manga’s ending satisfying, making it difficult to get truly excited about the adaptation, even with the added content.
If the My Hero Academia anime skips chapter 431, the ending could be unsatisfying and even spark controversy, potentially as much as—or more than—the manga’s conclusion. While it looks like the creators are trying to avoid that outcome, many fans currently expect a disappointing finale.
