My Hero Academia season 7 episode 12 new release date and time, where to watch, and more

My Hero Academia season 7 episode 12 is scheduled to release on Saturday, August 3, 2024, at 5:30 PM JST. There will be a week's break due to the Olympics broadcast. The episode will premiere initially on networks such as Yomiuri TV, Nippon TV, and its affiliates.

The previous episode focused heavily on the battle in the U.A. Sky Coffin. Tomura Shigaraki proved to be overwhelmingly powerful for the Heroes. U.A.'s Big Three and Katsuki Bakugo made an admirable stand against the despicable villain, but it wasn't enough, as situations became dire with Izuku Midoriya still en route.

Titled "Light Fades to Rain," the episode began with Bakugo facing off against the overwhelming Shigaraki. With Midoriya still en route, it was up to the Heroes present at the Sky Coffin to buy time. This is when U.A.'s Big Three - Mirio Togata, Nejire Hado, and Tamaki Amajiki - stepped up.

The trio combined their efforts and launched an attack at Shigaraki, successfully freeing Bakugo from his grasp. However, in retaliation, the villain's abnormal arm growths sprouted at an alarming rate, reaching out and around to stop the Big Three's attacks.

A little further away, Best Jeanist rushed to Bakugo's aid. But something had snapped within the latter, due to Shigaraki's harsh words and the damage sustained, he was still fighting mentally. Alongside, an appeal to stop the destruction by Mirio struck a nerve within Shigaraki. Somewhere inside, buried under Shigaraki and All For One (AFO), was Tenko Shimura.

Realizing that his body was falling apart, Shigaraki turned his attention to the disoriented Bakugo. He began making his way to him, but Mirio and Nejire were doing everything to buy more time. Meanwhile, as she was attacking, Nejire was powering up Tamaki's Manifest, a Quirk that knew no limits.

Picking his moment, Tamaki unleashed a huge Vast Hybrid: Plasma Canon at Shigaraki, blowing away the mass of hands and a portion of the Sky Coffin barrier. But the villain still emerged unscathed. However, one person still had fight left - Katsuki Bakugo. Without warning, he darted across and blasted Shigaraki's face.

His Quirk: Explosion, had evolved thanks to Cluster, releasing his nitroglycerin sweat from all over his body, giving him enhanced speed. He was fighting back purely on instinct, backed by the Big Three and Mirko. However, Shigaraki yet proved stronger, blowing all five Heroes back and Bakugo's heart in the process.

What to expect from My Hero Academia season 7 episode 12?

The previous episode witnessed a massive tragedy, with Bakugo suffering a fatal hit. But with the way things are, there isn't time to process anything. My Hero Academia season 7 episode 12 will keep temperatures high as, elsewhere, Dabi makes a fiery return.

Moreover, viewers will finally see what AFO had in store since the last time he was seen in episode 10. The villains are set to switch to the offensive and take charge at each of the marked locations to witness a villain comeback.

To reiterate, My Hero Academia season 7 episode 12 will be released on Saturday, August 3, 2024, at 05:30 PM JST and not on July 27, 2024. This delay is due to the Olympics broadcast.
