My Hero Academia has just started the perfect collaboration with Marvel in Japan! Both My Hero Academia and Marvel will be releasing big content for fans this year, and given they have thematic similarities, a crossover between them is quite appropriate (especially since My Hero Academia is inspired by Marvel heroes).
It’s not the first time the two brands have collaborated: in 2018, My Hero Academia and Avenger: Infinity War joined forces on promotional materials for the Marvel movie.

This year, My Hero Academia‘s Hawks joins Sam Wilson, the identity of Captain America in Captain America: Brave New World to promote the Marvel movie, which is set to debut on July 14, 2025, both in the US and in Japan (the Japanese release of superhero movies generally takes place a few weeks after the US premiere).
Special Commercial with Captain America and Hawks
As part of the collaboration, a commercial featuring both characters was unveiled. It mixes scenes from the film with scenes from My Hero Academia, featuring both Yuichi Nakamura (Hawks voice actor in Japan) and Takeshi Maruyama (Captain America/Steve Rogers voice actor in Japan).
My Hero Academia Final Season Debuts in Fall 2025
