Will there be My Hero Academia Season 6?
The MHA Season 5 stretching till September 2021 means that Boku no Hero Academia Season 6 will not premiere in 2021. It will get a renewal since 4 seasons of MHA have been adapted from volumes 1 till 21 of the manga. By March 2021, the writer has release 29 volumes.
For any anime to get a renewal it should score good on the popularity index and have sufficient material. Boku no Hero Academia scores 8.5 on IMDb and has sufficient volumes to be covered. One can expect My Hero Academia Season 6 to be announced at the end of MHA Season 5.
