Streaming libraries change constantly, and even well-loved titles are not guaranteed a permanent spot. When a show runs for multiple seasons, any hint of removal creates urgency, especially for viewers midway through the story. My Hero Academia, an anime that built its reputation on long arcs and steady character growth, may now be facing that moment.

With its Netflix availability under scrutiny, the focus has shifted from casual viewing to timing. Questions around how long the series will remain on the platform are gaining attention, making it important to understand how much time is left to watch before access changes.

Netflix will continue to host the first two seasons of My Hero Academia, offering anime enthusiasts a reliable place to revisit the early storylines of the beloved series. No official announcements have suggested that these seasons will be leaving the platform, ensuring continued access for viewers who prefer the streaming giant. Meanwhile, the anime’s first season is set to exit Crunchyroll in just 16 days.

Beyond Netflix and Crunchyroll, My Hero Academia is available on several other streaming platforms. Hulu currently streams five seasons, while Rakuten Viki offers two. 

The anime’s full eight-season catalog is available for purchase only on Apple TV and Amazon Prime, priced at $1.99 per episode, letting viewers own the complete series and watch it anytime without relying on subscription services. My Hero Academia’s last episode, notably, aired only yesterday and is not available to watch on Netflix.
