My Hero Academia Epilogue Episode More Set for May 2 on Crunchyroll

My Hero Academia's definitive final episode arrives on May 2. Titled "More," the epilogue special premieres on Crunchyroll outside Asia and adapts Chapter 431, the bonus chapter included in the manga's final volume. The episode jumps eight years past graduation to show the characters in their adult lives and the state of Hero Society in peacetime.

What More Covers

The original My Hero Academia anime concluded its final season in late 2025, but creator Kohei Horikoshi wrote an additional epilogue chapter specifically to expand on the ending. Chapter 431 was published alongside the manga's final collected volume and exists to show what peace looks like after the war, not just what victory looks like.

The episode covers Deku's path after stepping away from frontline hero work, how his Class 1-A classmates have grown into their adult roles, and how the next generation of Hero Society functions in the aftermath of the series' climactic battles. Character payoff scenes and relationship closure for the original cast make up the core of the episode's runtime.

Part of a Larger Celebration

The More epilogue is one of four "Ultra" projects announced at Jump Festa 2026 to mark My Hero Academia's 10th anniversary. The second confirmed project is a global concert tour featuring orchestral performances of the series' music. Two additional projects remain unannounced, and speculation within the fanbase leans toward a new theatrical film, though nothing official has been confirmed.

Ahead of the May 2 premiere, the complete My Hero Academia anime is available for free streaming on select platforms as part of the anniversary celebration, giving new viewers a chance to catch up before the epilogue drops.

The Definitive Ending

The epilogue addresses a common criticism of the original finale, which some fans felt ended too abruptly without showing enough of the characters' futures. Horikoshi's bonus chapter was written in direct response to that feedback, and its adaptation ensures that the anime and manga share the same complete conclusion.

More streams on Crunchyroll on May 2 outside Asia. Indian viewers with Crunchyroll subscriptions will be able to watch the episode on the same day as the global premiere.

A Decade of Plus Ultra

My Hero Academia debuted as a manga in Weekly Shonen Jump in 2014 and grew into one of the defining shonen franchises of the 2010s and 2020s. The anime, produced by Studio Bones, ran for multiple seasons and spawned three theatrical films before reaching its conclusion. The More epilogue ensures that the franchise's final note is not the climactic battle itself but the quiet aftermath a deliberate choice by Horikoshi to end on character rather than spectacle.
