On August 3, 2022, My Hero Academia dropped the fourth trailer for Season 6, featuring Deku, Shigaraki, and others who will play a pivotal role in the Paranormal Liberation War arc. The Hero Fes event, held on July 24, 2022, relieved fans by announcing the release window to be October 1, but the schedule for the episodes remained undisclosed.

Fortunately, the fourth trailer announced that from the start of October 1, My Hero Academia will drop episodes every Saturday evening at 5.30 JST on Yomiuri TV/Nippon Tv and 29 other stations nationwide. Crunchyroll acquired the rights to stream the episodes on its platform worldwide, but the release time might differ for each territory.

The trailer also revealed two theme songs for Season 6. “Hitamuki” by SUPER BEAVER will be the Opening (“Shinkokyuu” - Naruto Shippuden ED9, “Breakthrough” - Haikyuu!! To the Top OP, “Raisha” - Barakamon theme). “SKETCH” by Kiro Akiyama will serve as the Ending (“Identity” - The Promised Neverland Season 2 theme).
