Whenever it arrives, fans won’t want to miss the next installment of My Hero Academia Season 6. It will task Momo Yaoyorozu and her classmates with putting Gigantomachia asleep before he causes any further destruction — though after the Pros’ failure, it’s hard to say if they’ll succeed.
Episode 7 unleashes Gigantomachia on the Pro Heroes
Tomura Shigaraki inherits All for One during My Hero Academia Season 6 Episode 4, and Endeavor’s team of Pro Heroes have spent recent episodes trying to defeat him. Edgeshot’s team faces far less dangerous foes by comparison. However, that changes in My Hero Academia Season 6 Episode 7, which unleashes Gigantomachia at long last.
The giant has spent most of season 6 asleep, but Shigaraki rouses him and commands him to kill every human in sight. As such, Gigantomachia heads toward Jaku City — and despite pushback from heroes like Mt. Lady and Midnight, he’s making fast progress.
After the Pro Heroes fail to stop Gigantomachia’s charge, a wounded Midnight tasks Momo and the other U.A. students with putting the villain to sleep. Despite the odds being stacked against them, the group agrees to try. Sadly, their chances against Gigantomachia don’t look great heading into My Hero Academia Season 6 Episode 8 arrives. What can we expect when the next chapter arrives?
Predictions for ‘My Hero Academia’ Season 6 Episode 8
The preview footage for My Hero Academia Season 6 Episode 8 promises to focus heavily on Class 1-A and 1-B’s efforts to stop Gigantomachia. It looks like Mina Ashido will get a moment to shine. And her classmates will have their hands full with Gigantomachia and the League of Villains.
Fortunately, it looks like Mt. Lady is still fighting, too — so we may see a joint effort between the kids and Pro Heroes. With a villain so powerful, that may be the only hope of beating him.
Episode 8 also promises a return to Team Endeavor’s side of the battlefield, with the preview offering a shot of Deku and Bakugo. It doesn’t give much insight into what’s happening, but we can expect more nail-biting action from their team as well.
Needless to say, fans will want to keep watching season 6 of the anime.
My Hero Academia Season 6 Episode 8 debuts on Saturday, Nov. 19.
