All seven seasons of the Boku no Hero Academia (My Hero Academia) anime can be streamed on Crunchyroll, and it will also stream the anime’s eighth season worldwide, excluding Asia, as it airs in Japan. Crunchyroll describes the anime below:

“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.”

The anime is an adaptation of Horikoshi Kouhei’s Boku no Hero Academia manga. Horikoshi (Oumagadoki Zoo and Sensei no Baruji) started the manga in Weekly Shounen Jump in July 2014 and ended it in August 2024. Shueisha published the manga’s first tankoubon volume in November 2014 and the 42nd and final volume in December 2024.
