Crunchyroll Confirms Release Date for My Hero Academia Season 8 Dub

Fans of the popular anime series My Hero Academia can finally mark their calendars as the streaming platform Crunchyroll has announced the release date for the English dub of the show’s eighth season. The English version will premiere on October 18, 2025, two weeks after the original Japanese version debuted on October 4, 2025. This news comes after weeks of anticipation, as viewers were left wondering when they could experience the action in their preferred language.

The release schedule reveals that the English dub will follow a consistent weekly pattern, similar to its Japanese counterpart. This means that fans can expect new episodes to be available each week, allowing them to engage with the climactic war arc of the series without long interruptions. While some fans were hoping for a simultaneous release, known as a simuldub, the announcement provides a clear timeline for those awaiting the English version.

As for the exact timing of the English dub’s release, Crunchyroll has not yet specified. However, looking at the Japanese release, which airs at 2:30 AM Pacific Time (PT) or 10:30 AM British Summer Time (BST), it is reasonable to expect the English dub to follow a similar schedule. This would make it accessible for UK viewers in the late morning hours, ensuring fans can easily tune in.

The appeal of the English dub is heightened by the return of its core voice cast, who are set to reprise their roles for this final season. The beloved actors bring their characters to life, and their involvement is a significant draw for audiences. The anticipation surrounding the eighth season reflects the series’ enduring popularity and the emotional investment fans have in the characters’ journeys.

As the final battle for Japan unfolds, My Hero Academia continues to captivate viewers worldwide. With this announcement, fans can prepare for the excitement ahead, ready to go “Plus Ultra” as they witness the culmination of years of storytelling.
