The fifth season of the My Hero Academia anime television series was produced by Bones and directed by Kenji Nagasaki (chief director) and Masahiro Mukai, following the story of Kōhei Horikoshi's original manga series of the same name from the 21st volume through the end of the 26th volume. It covers the final parts of "Pro Hero" arc (chapters 190–193), "Joint Training" (chapters 194–217), "Meta Liberation Army" (chapters 218–240) which temporarily shifts the title of the series to My Villain Academia, "Endeavor Agency" (chapters 241–252), and the origin of "Paranormal Liberation War" arc (chapters 253–258). Like the previous three, the season ran in two consecutive cours and aired from March 27 to September 25, 2021, on ytv and NTV.[1]

The season follows Izuku Midoriya, who dreams about the vestiges of the previous One For All users during the Joint Training Battle. In the second half of the season, the League of Villains and the Meta Liberation Army encountered in the Deika City to determine about becoming the most infamous villains; Tomura Shigaraki, who is informed to become All For One's successor, seeks to merge the organizations under his leadership. At the same time, the Hero Public Safety Commission orders a second Hero Work-Studies for students in preparation for the upcoming War.

Crunchyroll and Hulu streamed the season outside of Asia as it aired,[2] [3] and an English dub from Crunchyroll LLC launched on its service beginning on April 10, 2021.[4] Medialink licensed the series in Southeast Asia and South Asia, and is streaming the season on Netflix, Viu, Bilibili, WeTV, iQIYI, meWatch, and other regional streaming services.[5] The season's English dub aired on Adult Swim's Toonami programming block from May 9 to November 7, 2021.[6]

For the fifth season: the first opening theme song is "No.1" performed by Dish, while the first ending theme song is performed by the Peggies.[7] The second opening theme song is "Merry-Go-Round" performed by Man with a Mission, while the second ending theme song is performed by Soshi Sakiyama.[8] __TOC__
