My Hero Academia: Vigilantes Season 1 Will Be Longer Than Normal
My Hero Academia: Vigilantes might outlast the original series
My Hero Academia’s spinoff, Vigilantes, just started.
Cour 1 is set for 13 episodes and is currently airing for Spring 2025 Season.
However, Bones seems to be planning to have another cour for Season 1.
On April 7, 2025, it was revealed that rather than one season with 13 episodes, there will be another cour of 13 episodes, meaning Season 1 will have a total of
As each episode adapts over 50 pages of content and every monthly chapter is around 30 pages, each episode will likely adapt 2 chapters per episode.
This means that the first 52 of the 126 chapters will definitely be covered in Season 1, leaving the possibility of a second season to potentially finish the whole spinoff.
There is no confirmation when Cour 2 will be released as October is set for the final season of My Hero Academia itself.
