Last September, the 44th issue of Weekly Shonen Jump revealed that a third season of My Hero Academia was in the works and now we have an April 2018 release date, courtesy of an advance look at Shoen Jump's final issue of 2017, which doesn't officially hit newsstands until next week. Season 2 ended with Deku's fellow classmates at U.A. High School preparing for a school trip (those that passed the final exam anyway). It seems inevitable that something either hilarious, tragic or both will occur on the overnight excursion.
Will Deku master All for One and succeed All Might as the world's greatest hero? He still has a long ways to go but he's already taken great strides in mastering his Quirk.
