Months before the final season of My Hero Academia airs, TOHO Animation will deliver a special panel at Anime Expo.
Revealed yesterday, the panel will kick things off at Anime Expo on Saturday, July 5 at the Peacock Theater from 10 a.m. to 11:20 a.m. The panel will feature Deku voice actors Daiki Yamashita (Japanese VA) and Justin Briner (English VA) along with a Shonen Jump editor to discuss the show’s final season.
The final season of My Hero Academia is slated to air this October. A premiere date will be released soon. Previous episodes of My Hero Academia as well as films and specials can be streamed on Crunchyroll right now here. A synopsis for the show reads:
Izuku has dreamt of being a hero all his life—a lofty goal for anyone, but especially challenging for a kid with no superpowers. That’s right, in a world where eighty percent of the population has some kind of super-powered “quirk,” Izuku was unlucky enough to be born completely normal. But that’s not enough to stop him from enrolling in one of the world’s most prestigious hero academies.
Four-day and single-day badge registration for Anime Expo can be made here. Anime Expo will take place at the Los Angeles Convention Center from July 3 through July 6. Our coverage of last year’s Anime Expo, which gained a turnstile attendance of 407,000 people from 64 countries, can be seen here.
Since 2009, MP3s and NPCs owner Terrance Pryor has written about music, conventions, cosplay, and video games for publications such as AXS, Examiner, Fake Walls, and Ranker. Based out of Los Angeles, the former rock concert promoter/radio host can be seen talking about rock music on AXS TV’s Music’s Greatest Mysteries and discussing music and whatever else on their Black Man Talks Rock channel on YouTube.
