My Hero Academia Season 7 Episode 2 Preview and Expectations

After much anticipation, Studio BONES has unveiled the synopsis and images for episode 2 of My Hero Academia season 7 through the anime’s official sources. Titled “Specter,”the upcoming episode is set to premiere on Saturday, May 11, 2024. It will air first on local Japanese TV networks, followed by international release on Crunchyroll and Netflix.

The last installment featured the arrival of Star and Stripe in Japan, where she was quickly met with a confrontation by Shigaraki Tomura. This encounter marked the beginning of their epic battle in the anime. Throughout the fight, Shigaraki attempted to understand Star and Stripe’s Quirk, New Order, but was ultimately foiled by her powerful Keraunos ability.

What should I anticipate in My Hero Academia season 7 episode 2?

The previous episode concluded with Star and Stripe successfully trapping Shigaraki using her Keraunos. Shortly after, Commander Agpar reached out to inform her about the launch of the Intercontinental Cruise Missiles: Tiamat, which were aimed at attacking Shigaraki. As a result, the next episode will unveil the outcome of this collaborative attack.

Despite this, the teaser images for the anime episode suggest that Shigaraki will manage to escape from Star and Stripe’s Keraunos. As a result, viewers can anticipate Shigaraki successfully surviving their combined attack. This will likely force America’s top Hero to devise a new strategy to take down the All For One wielder.

The preview images have revealed that the upcoming episode of the anime will delve into Star and Stripe’s backstory. Fans of animanga are well aware that a character’s backstory often foreshadows their eventual demise.

Considering that Star and Stripe currently lacks a viable defense against Shigaraki Tomura’s assaults, it is highly probable that she will not survive the confrontation. Additionally, it is anticipated that the American pilots will also meet their demise in the conflict. As a result, Japan may find itself embroiled in a new war.

All Might may inform Class 1A students about the passing of Star and Stripe

As seen in the preview images, it is clear that former No. 1 Hero All Might has a significant message to deliver to the students of Class 1A. This message could potentially be about the potential passing of America’s No. 1 Hero, Star and Stripe. It is likely that he will inform his students directly, especially with Deku being the target of Shigaraki Tomura.

Alternatively, it is possible that All Might is visiting the Class 1A students to inform them about the All For One quirk. As the quirk was scheduled to be fully transferred to Shigaraki Tomura within three days, it is likely that All Might has gone to the students to caution them about the impending war.
