What to expect from My Hero Academia season 6?
The Paranormal Liberation Front has been created, with Shigaraki acting as their ultimate leader. The young villain is preparing to obtain the most powerful Quirk of all time, All for One. It seems like this is the perfect time to become a villain, as they are preparing an all-out assault against Hero Society.
My Hero Academia season 6 will be the darkest and most stress-inducing season to date. The Paranormal Liberation War arc has some amazing and iconic moments and battles, but it also has many of the most disturbing and heartbreaking scenes in the manga. If the anime adaptation stays true to its source, fans can expect the season to get dark as soon as it begins.
However, fans can also expect to see some incredible developments for some of their favorite characters. Individuals like Tokoyami and Denki, who have been underutilized in the past, may just surprise fans in My Hero Academia season 6. And, as expected, Deku and Bakugo will be at the center of it all, leading the fight against Shigaraki and his new and terrifying Quirk.
