My Hero Academia Season 7 Premiere Review

My Hero Academia Season 7 premiered last week giving fans a ton of new action and a glimpse at what Director Naomi Nakayama can bring to the table. Stellar action and Romi Park’s series debut as Star led the way to give the series one of its best seasonal premieres to date.

In this week’s episode, the fight between Star and Shigaraki continues to heat up. Will the American All-Might prodigy lay waste to the series’ destruction-hungry villain or will our favorite chapped-lipped antagonist come out on top?

My Hero Academia Season 7 kickstarts the Star and Stripe Arc with Park voicing the new character of Star and Stripe. The arc spans over the course of chapters 329-334, with the U.A. Traitor Arc following it. The rest of the main cast has reprised their roles from the previous season.
