Kaiju No. 8, the new sci-fi action anime based on Naoya Matsumoto’s ongoing Shōnen Jump Plus manga, premiered its first episode last Saturday.
Crunchyroll to Stream My Hero Academia Series Recap Before Season 7 Premiere
03.04.2024 - 15:21 / gamerant.com / My Hero Academia
The Spring 2024 anime season is finally here, and while there's a lot to be hyped about, two of the heaviest hitters in shōnen anime, My Hero Academia and Demon Slayer, aren't starting until May. Now, Demon Slayer is another story, but Crunchyroll intends to keep MHA fans occupied every week until the new season starts, with a new four-part special, My Hero Academia: Memories.
Based on the manga by Kohei Horikoshi, My Hero Academia follows Izuku Midoriya, a young man with no superpowers in a world where over 80% of the world has one. At least, that was the case before he had a run-in with his childhood hero that changed his life forever, and set him on the path toward becoming the greatest hero in the world, if he can get a handle on his new power, that is.
Memories is a full recap of the series that will be simulcast on Crunchyroll every week at 2:30 AM PT this month, starting Saturday, April 6, and continuing until the premiere of the new season. It will cover all six seasons, from Deku's humble beginnings as a quirkless newbie to his darkest moments in the face of societal collapse at the hands of his greatest foe, Tomura Shigaraki.
Anyone looking for a refresher on Izuku Midoriya's humble beginnings or the mounting chaos engulfing Japan in the recent season owes it to themselves to check out Memories when it debuts. Per Crunchyroll, the special, as well as the seventh season, will be dubbed in English, Latin American Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, French, German, and Italian. As for when these dubs will be made available after the initial simulcast, such dates will be announced at a later date.
Once Memories is over, Season 7 will be simulcast starting May 4 at 2:30 AM. The previous season ended with the warning that the villain Shigaraki would reach his full power in just three days, not giving the heroes much time to prepare. Audiences were left with a small glimmer of hope; Star and Stripe, America's #1 hero, flying to Japan to lend a hand.
By the time the show returns in earnest, it will have been a little over eight years since the series premiered back in 2016. The series comes from BONES, the studio behind Fullmetal Alchemist, Mob Psycho 100, Bungo Stray Dogs, and much more over a quarter-century of work, an anniversary it is celebrating this year.
When My Hero Academia's anime began, it was directed by Kenji Nagasaki, whose previous works include 2011's No. 6 and 2013's Gundam Build Fighters. Following the completion of Season 3, Nagasaki stepped back from the main director's chair, though returned as the Chief Director in subsequent seasons. He was succeeded by Masahiro Mukai for seasons four, five, and six, and now by Naomi Nakayama, co-director of the sci-fi drama Orange from 2016.

Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 Will Only Have a 30 FPS Option on Xbox Series X/S
Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 has looked like a veritable visual beast every time it’s been shown off since its announcement all the way back in 2019.
