Everything to know about My Hero Academia season 6, episode 8

My Hero Academia season 6, episode 8, will be broadcast on Saturday, November 19, 2022, at 5:30 pm JST in Japan on Nippon TV and yTV. The episode will also be available on Crunchyroll globally. But with every episode of season 6, the situation seems to be worsening, forcing the hero students to participate in the battle as well. The stage seems set for even more death and destruction, with a frantic Gigantomachia carrying the League of Villains to the already overpowered Shigaraki’s location in Jaku City.

Release date and time, where to watch

My Hero Academia season 6, episode 8, will be released in Japan on Saturday, November 19, 2022, at 5:30 pm. However, global release times will vary for viewers depending on time zone differences.

What to expect?

The previous episode of My Hero Academia season 6 ended with Midnight instructing Momo Yaoyorozu to create sedatives and rally the other hero students to stop Gigantomachia.

The U.A. teacher herself was heavily injured when Dabi and Mr. Compress from the League of Villains ambushed her and dropped a large concrete slab on her. With season 6 taking a much darker turn compared to older seasons of the anime, it would not be too far-fetched to suspect that she would lose her life in this battle.

The preview for episode 8 revealed that the hero students from classes A and B will work together to restrain the giant, but judging by Midnight’s conversation with Yaoyorozu in the previous episode, the students are possibly unaware of the villains hiding on Gigantomachia’s back.

Episode 8’s title, League of Villains Vs. U.A. Students, makes it evident that the students will have to deal with villains Toga, Dabi, and others to accomplish their goal of preventing the giant’s advance towards Shigaraki’s location.

The episode will also showcase the battle of Jaku General since the preview depicted Shigaraki crouching on the ground with smoke rising from his body. His earlier shift in personality stemming from All For One’s influence might rear its head again, but it is unclear if the change will make him even more dangerous or lead him to turn tail and escape.
