As part of the 10th anniversary of the "My Hero Academia" anime, a new promotional video (PV) for the additional episode "『僕のヒーローアカデミア』No.170＋1『More』" (English: "My Hero Academia No. 170+1 'More'") has been released. The video uses clips from the actual episode and offers a glimpse of the adult heroes as well as the return of the villainess Himiko Toga.
"More" is based on an exclusive bonus chapter by creator Kōhei Horikoshi, included in the 42nd and final manga volume. The story takes place eight years after the graduation of Class 1-A from U.A. High School. While his former classmates are active as professional heroes, the now quirkless Izuku Midoriya (Deku) works as a teacher at his old school. The PV shows the matured characters, including Deku, Katsuki Bakugo, Shoto Todoroki, and Ochaco Uraraka, gathering for a special occasion. Additionally, Himiko Toga, a significant antagonist for Uraraka, appears, accompanied by emotional dialogue reflecting the current state of the characters.
The episode will air on May 2, 2026, at 5:30 PM Japanese time on the Yomiuri TV and Nippon TV network (29 stations nationwide). Following that, from 6:00 PM, it will also be available on various streaming platforms. The production comes from studios BONES and BONES FILM under the direction of Naomi Nakayama, with Kōhei Horikoshi contributing the original story.
