My Hero Academia: You're Next

My Hero Academia: You're Next is the fourth theatrical film in the franchise, released in August 2024. The film follows Deku and U.A.'s students as they encounter a new villain who seeks to steal a powerful Quirk connected to the Symbol of Peace era. Set against the backdrop of the heroes' ongoing efforts to maintain peace after the events of the main series' final arc, the film balances its original storyline with callbacks and character moments that reward longtime viewers. The villain's Quirk presents challenges requiring the kind of teamwork and individual growth that the series has built toward across six seasons.

Produced by Bones with the series' full creative team, You're Next delivers the studio's characteristic exceptional sakuga animation in its action sequences — particularly the climactic battle, which showcases multiple Class 1-A students at the peak of their season 6-era power levels. The film functions as a celebration of where the characters have arrived and a compelling original adventure that fits naturally within the franchise's established world. Like its predecessors, it is non-canonical to the manga but produced with creator Kohei Horikoshi's supervision. Recommended for fans who have followed the series through at least Season 5 for proper character context.
