What to expect from the next season?

My Hero Academia Season 6 will mark a historical turning point in the series. The heroes will square off against the villains in a full-scale war. Several characters will finally get their chance to shine in the upcoming battles.

Deku and Shigaraki have only grown stronger in the recent arcs. My Hero Academia Season 6 will likely culminate in their fated encounter. Fans have been looking forward to it for several years now.

The stakes will be very high as neither side can afford to lose this upcoming war. Either way, we can expect some major casualties along the way.

The OVA poster also looks promising

While fans wait for the next season, they can look forward to the upcoming OVA, entitled "HLB," which may or may not stand for "Hero League Baseball." The official Twitter page released the poster not too long ago.

It will feature Pro Heroes and U.A. students competing in a baseball game. The poster seems to imply the following team divisions:

Orange team: Kaminari, Mineta, Ojiro, Sato, Mt. Lady, and Shishido

Blue team: Kirishima, Jiro, Shoji, Amajiki, Fat Gum, and Gang Orca

It's notably missing the main characters, including Izuku Midoriya and Katsuki Bakugo. Nonetheless, fans can fully expect their presence in the OVA. The release date is set for June this year.
