It's My Hero Academia season 4! Hoo boy, that stuff with All For One was real scary, huh? Time to relax and not have to worry about any vi--wait who's this Overhaul rear end in a top hat?!

Sheesh, here we go again.

It's starting this Saturday, and as far as I can tell, Funimation is same day dubbing the whole thing!

Characters


Izuku "Deku" Midoriya (Daiki Yamashita, Justin Briner)
Quirk: One For All
Deku here used to have no powers at all. Zilch, nada. But thanks to a chance encounter with All Might, he's gained the power he needs to start on the road to becoming a hero. Under the tutelage of All Might's mentorship, Deku is slowly but surely learning how to moderate the power within him.


Toshinori "All Might" Yagi (Kenta Miyake, Chris Sabat)
Quirk: One For All Quirkless
The former top hero in Japan and Deku's mentor. After a climactic battle with All for One, he used up the final reserves of his strength and retired as a hero.


Katsuki "Lord Explosion Murder" Bakugo (Nobuhiko Okamoto, Clifford Chapin)
Quirk: Explosion
Izuku's classmate and bully, and the front-runner in his class to be accepted into U.A. He was gifted with a pretty powerful quirk, which has given him an inflated ego. He's trying to come to terms with the formerly pathetic Deku becoming an actual peer, and like most things in his life, channels that through rage. Has a new sense of purpose after being kidnapped by the League of Villains and telling them to piss off.


Ochaco "Uravity" Uraraka (Ayane Sakura, Luci Christian)
Quirk: Zero Gravity
Izuku's best friend, a kind young girl who can control gravity. She may or may not have a bit of a crush on Deku.


Tenya "Ingenium" Iida (Kaito Ishikawa, J. Michael Tatum)
Quirk: Engine
Deku's other friend. A hot-blooded young man who is strict about the rules. He's the representative of U.A.'s class 1-A.


Mirio Togata (Tarusuke Shingaki, Ricco Fajardo)
Quirk: Permeation
A senior at UA and one of the "Big Three" at the school. Has the power to phase through objects and mess with physics by doing so.


Tomura Shigaraki (Kōki Uchiyama, Eric Vale)
Quirk: Disintegration
The mysterious leader of the League of Villains who has dedicated himself to killing All Might. He's the grandson of the woman who gave All Might One For All.


Himiko Toga (Misato Fukuen, Leah Clark)
Quirk: Transform
Just a cheerful, fun-loving teenage girl who kills people :D One of the new recruits in the League of Villains, she can turn into anybody whose blood she can get a hold of.


All For One (Akio Otsuka, John Swasey)
Quirk: All For One
A villain from long ago who has the ability to steal and stockpile quirks. The architect of the League of Villains, he is currently in custody after a final battle with All Might.

Really curious how the reception of this arc will be in the anime. It was pretty polarizing.

I'm assuming the quicker pace of an anime will help a lot.

Though that doesn't really speak to any production woes since it's been a trend and it's most likely to catch the kids up. I'd also think the recent typhoon was a factor.

He's in jail, it's fine, he'll never hurt anyone again, it's not like he's cultivated a steadily growing legacy or anything. Why, if that happened, it'd have to be one of the main themes of the series, and that's ridiculous.

As someone who saw a kid being beaten at work and them leaving before I could react, it feels awful, it really does. But sometimes you just...can't do anything. And you probably shouldn't. And you feel like poo poo.

It's one of several times in the series where it feels like Horikoshi had an idea, but then realized he went a bit too far with it and has to backpedal a bit on it.

A lot of these limited run anime showings are treated as event tickets and not normal movie tickets, are a bit more pricey as a result, and I'm assuming would not apply for customer loyalty programs like A List.

This was the one season that took a little longer, didn't it? IIRC, Seasons 1 through 3 all aired within a year of the first episode of the previous season.
