The previous chapter saw All Might going up against All For One.

While the spoilers for My Hero Academia chapter 397 were to be out by now, a manga leaker on X (formerly Twitter) @RukasuMHA revealed how it might get delayed until tomorrow (August 17).

According to the leaker, Japan celebrates the Obon holiday from August 13 to August 16. Due to this, the manga leakers did not have their source available as the person was seemingly out of town. The holiday was also set to delay the magazine delivery. Therefore, it may take some time for My Hero Academia chapter 397 spoilers to come out.

That said, fans can expect the manga's digital leaks to be released by the end of the day. If not, the manga spoilers may get delayed until later. While fans are already on the lookout for any updates, they have been left wondering if the spoilers for other manga, such as Jujutsu Kaisen and Black Clover, will also be delayed.

Fans were disappointed, to say the least, as they could no longer wait for the My Hero Academia chapter 397 spoilers. The manga's previous chapter was released on August 6, 2023. Since then, fans have been eagerly waiting for the spoilers to be released on August 16. Unfortunately, they were left with an announcement of a delay.

The manga's previous chapter saw All Might pitted against All For One. Hence, fans wanted to learn about its aftermath. Meanwhile, other fans did not seem to care. As the characters expected in the manga, fans, too, believed that All Might was set to be defeated by All For One. Hence, they weren't expecting any big surprises in the upcoming chapter.

The announcement confused several fans as they weren't sure when to expect the chapter spoilers. While the leaker's message revealed that the spoilers were to be delayed, it did not clearly mention when they might drop. Hence, fans wondered if the leaks would be released the next day or a week after.

Meanwhile, anime fans tried to cheer up My Hero Academia fans, stating that Boruto chapter leaks would still come out on August 16. While this was an attempt to cheer up fans, it did not sit well with everyone, as some found it odd that Boruto fans believed that My Hero Academia fans would cheer up from viewing their manga's spoilers.
