My Hero Academia fans can expect the OVAs to be released in about a month’s time. Here’s what we know about the announcements made at the Anime Expo for the aforementioned series.

Anime Expo screened the My Hero Academia OVA and announced the release details of the same
A lot of anime conventions take the opportunity to screen a particular special episode or an OVA to the audience that is present there before it is broadcast on television or shown on any streaming platforms. The upcoming OVA will be released on August 1, 2022, and it will be available on Crunchyroll. The entire My Hero Academia fanbase is ecstatic about this.
The series has gotten quite dark in the manga, and the OVA will be a nice change of pace for the fanbase as well. An accurate description of the OVAs that were streamed at AX would be a combination of two shorter-than-average episodes. The total number of OVAs would become 7 after this announcement.
The first OVA is titled HLB (which stands for Hero League Baseball) and features a game between Gang Orca and Pro Hero Lionel. They’re considered to be fierce rivals in My Hero Academia, and this game of baseball is slightly different from the conventional way of playing it.

In this game, any player who gets knocked out while playing is out of the game, and the team with players that are remaining is the winner. Naturally, the heroes find creative ways to use their quirks to gain an advantage. This is a comedic segment that My Hero Academia fans should certainly look forward to. The second half involves Deku, Bakugo, and Todoroki working under Endeavor to catch the criminal who has been painting on public property.
The criminal is capable of making people laugh uncontrollably for two hours just by looking at his face. While this might not sound all that funny, watching some of the stern characters lose their composure is hilarious. The animation quality was standard, and the overall execution of the OVAs was great. It's safe to say that the entire fanbase is excited about the OVAs.
