With a full wave of support behind him, Midoriya is gearing up for the final confrontation. Here is everything you need to know about the MHA Chapter 423 release date, time, and predictions.
My Hero Academia Chapter 423 release date and time, explained
After My Hero Academia went on break in celebration of a national holiday, the manga is back on a weekly schedule. MHA Chapter 424 will be released in the U.S. on Sunday, May 19.
Fans can check out Chapter 423 at approximately 11 a.m. EDT (8 a.m. PDT), which is closely aligned with the midnight release in Japan. If fans stay off social media, they should have no issues avoiding spoilers.
Where to read My Hero Academia Chapter 423
After the new chapter officially goes live, My Hero Academia fans can read the latest chapter on Viz Media and MangaPlus. Both websites will have the chapter available in English. It all comes down to personal preference for which service you prefer.
What to expect from My Hero Academia Chapter 423
If you still need to catch up, we recommend reading Chapter 422 before going further. Even if there aren’t any officially confirmed spoilers for the upcoming chapter, it’s easy to connect the dots and infer where this story is heading next.
MHA Chapter 422 once again puts the spotlight on Midoriya as other heroes on the battlefield desperately attempt to distract All For One. As Midoriya passes by and gets pushed forward by every character we have gotten to know in the story, they shower him with words of encouragement in a beautiful series of panels. From Uraraka, to All Might, to Midoriya’s mom, its moving watching them all become overcome with emotions as they cheer on from the sidelines. In particular, All Might saying “you’ve been my greatest hero” was an amazing line that resonates perfectly with what makes Midoriya special in the eyes of people that know him or have become fans from watching along at home.
In a surprising development buried beneath an emotional high for the series, the United States president is also moved by Midoriya and agrees to send his heroes to aid in the fight. All For One even acknowledges Midoriya as more of a threat than All Might because of his ability to inspire, making him a great shonen manga protagonist. MHA has put all of the pieces in place for this moment, and I predict the finale is close. Kohei Horikoshi has done a masterful job of handling this story’s final act and the next few chapters are guaranteed to be memorable, if Horikoshi nails the ending.
Chapter 423 will most likely mark the start of the final fight with All For One, and I would be shocked if there weren’t a few more surprises in store for the last confrontation.
