Season chronology
List of episodes

The first season of the My Hero Academia anime series was produced by Bones and MBS and directed by Kenji Nagasaki. It adapts Kōhei Horikoshi's My Hero Academia manga from the beginning of the first to shortly after the third volume over 13 episodes, following the first adventures of Izuku Midoriya.

The season initially ran from April 3 to June 26, 2016,[1] on MBS in Japan, and was released on DVD and Blu-ray in five compilations, each containing two to three episodes, by Toho between June 29 and October 12, 2016.[2] Funimation licensed the series for an English dubbed release in North America and released the episodes in a single DVD and Blu-Ray compilation on April 18, 2017. Eventually, their adaptation ran from May 5 to August 4, 2018, on Adult Swim as part of their Toonami block.[3]

Two pieces of theme music are used for this season: an opening theme and an ending theme. The opening theme is "The Day", performed by Porno Graffitti and the ending theme is "Heroes", performed by Brian the Sun.[4]
