The third season of the popular manga and anime "My Hero Academia" is going to get its next season quite soon. No one seems to doubt this given the anime's success. Now, the latest manga apparently gave the announcement for the latest season of the anime.

According to the announcement, "My Hero Academia" season 3 is coming out on April 7, which is just around two months away. For the most part, the staff behind the anime will remain the same, so fans who loved the first two seasons will definitely be excited about the next run. Bones, the studio producer of the anime was also responsible for other successful animes usch as "Fullmetal Alchemist," "Eureka Seven," and "RahXephon."

Kenji Nagasaki will be the director for the new season while Yousuki Kuroda will be in-charge of the scripts of each episode, as per VG Culture HQ. Both Yoshihiko Umakoshi and Hitomi Odashima will again be designing the characters with Yuuki Hiashi composing the music.

The announcement did not mention how many episodes it will have but, of course, the more episodes the better. Season 2 had 25 episodes; this is usually the number of episodes that is need to cover multiple arcs. Season 1, on the other hand, only had 13 episodes, which is quite understandable as it still had to see how the anime would be received by people.

As for season 3, it will directly pick up from season 2. During the last episode, fans were teased about the forest school trip arc which will open season 3. Fans can watch the newest season on Funimation and presumably Crunchyroll since they also streamed the first two seasons as well.

In other related news, the game version, "My Hero Academia: One Justice" should be coming out this year. Although no release date was given, fans have at least two things to look forward to this year.
