Fans have been eagerly waiting for the comeback of My Hero Academia ever since season five of the popular series didn't meet their expectations. As the final trailer for season 6 dropped today, fans on Twitter didn't hesitate to point out the incredible efforts made by studio BONES. Most fans believe season 6 could finally restore My Hero Academia to its former glory.
This seemed like great news, especially after how they butchered the animation in season 5. While some fans still seemed pessimistic regarding the future of the series, others pointed out that My Hero Academia season 6 could finally rebuild the hype around the anime.

Twitter gets a ray of hope as My Hero Academia season 6 final trailer drops
Animation
While the final trailer starts in the same vein as the previous ones, key visuals and dialogs were revealed this time. Fans seemed to be pretty fascinated by the animation quality in these trailers. Manga followers care deeply about the animation style, and thankfully, studio BONES didn't disappoint with this new release.
The pressure put on season 6 to be a success was immense after the entire season 5 fiasco, which left fans expecting and desiring more from the shonen anime.
Fans eventually realized that studio BONES had done justice to the villains by making them look more menacing. Earlier, My Hero Academia faced a lot of hate for its bleak animation style in the My Villain Academia arc, but this comeback surely did justice to the series.
As for the events in the manga, the majority of fans agreed that if done properly, season 6 could potentially surpass every other season in the series. However, the anime had one of the most toxic fanbases, and other communities seized every opportunity to troll them.
Finally, fans enjoyed the opening song incorporated into the trailer. Excitement was in the air as Hitamuki by SUPER BEAVER was selected as the opening song of the new season. On the other hand, SKETCH by Kiro Akiyama wasn't added to the trailer as it happens to be the ending song for this season.
SUPER BEAVER's Hitamuki did seem upbeat, which would be perfect as an opening song for shonen animes. In contrast, Kiro Akiyama's SKETCH would probably be on the mellow and slow side.
Fan Reactions on Twitter
Twitter was brimming with excitement with the news of the final trailer's launch and fans soon uploaded their favorite shots from it. This included their personal favorites, which seemed to be Bakugo in most cases.
While for others, the villains seemed to be more interesting. After patiently waiting for almost a year, receiving new My Hero Academia content energized dedicated fans to their core.
However, some fans are still immensely skeptical about season 6. One can't even blame them, given the blunders in season 5 and the toxic fandom community of the series. In addition, many still believe that the anime's mass appeal had its roots in childish tones and themes.
Final Thoughts
My Hero Academia fans deserved a win and studio BONES tried to deliver it to the best of their capabilities. While the community's burning passion was reignited, others didn't share the same enthusiasm. They were highly skeptical, and some were even considering dropping the anime altogether.
However, one should give the hard-working animation studio a chance to redeem themselves. With its widespread appeal, My Hero Academia has been one of the best shonen animes in recent years, and skepticism won't change that fact.
