My Hero Academia Delays Release of Final Fan Book and Art Book
The beloved series My Hero Academia has announced a postponement of its final fan book and art book, two highly anticipated projects aimed at commemorating the end of this iconic manga. Fans can now expect these releases to arrive later in 2025.
Background on the Series Conclusion
The manga concluded its run in August 2024, marking a significant milestone in the story of Izuku Midoriya and his journey to become a hero. Shortly after this finale, Shueisha confirmed plans to release a final fan book and an art book that would provide fans with a deeper understanding of the series.
Details on the Delayed Releases
The final fan book, which is now anticipated to release in mid-2025, promises a comprehensive exploration of the characters, story arcs, and exclusive behind-the-scenes content. Meanwhile, the inaugural art book, initially slated for an April 2025 release, will also see a similar delay until mid-2025. Additionally, the concluding volume, Volume 42, will include an impressive 60 pages of bonus material, expected to be available on December 4, 2025.
Reason for Delays
The delays are attributed to the mangaka, Kohei Horikoshi, facing a demanding schedule with multiple ongoing projects following the series’ conclusion. As a result, both commemorative books will be postponed.
