💎 Filler actually worth watching
- None essential. The 5 pure-filler episodes (32, 39, 58, 64, 104) are skippable standalone stories with no impact on the main plot.
- Ep 104 (Season 5) is a fun World Heroes' Mission movie tie-in / standalone but is non-canon and skippable.
- OVAs ('Training of the Dead', 'Save! Rescue Training', 'Make It! Do-or-Die Survival Training') are separate non-canon extras (not in the 170 TV count) — optional fan watches only.
❓ FAQ
Does My Hero Academia have a lot of filler?
No. It's one of the lowest-filler long-running shonen anime. Out of 170 episodes only about 5 (~3%) are pure filler — airing seasonally with breaks meant the anime never had to pad time to avoid catching up to the manga.
Which episodes can I skip?
The 5 pure-filler episodes — 32, 39, 58, 64 and 104. They're standalone stories with no impact on the plot. Mixed episodes (1-2, 30, 34, 40, 54-55, 89, 105, 127) blend canon and filler, so watch those.
Is the anime finished?
Yes. My Hero Academia is fully complete as of June 2026. The final Season 8 (11 episodes) aired Oct 4 – Dec 13, 2025, concluding the story. A single bonus TV special adapting chapter 431 aired May 2, 2026.
Where does the anime match the manga?
The anime fully caught up to and adapted the entire manga, which ended August 2024 at chapter 430. Season 8 covered the end of the Final War arc and the Epilogue, with the bonus special covering ch. 431.
Are there recap episodes?
Yes. Four 'Memories' recap specials aired in April 2024 before Season 7 to summarize Season 6; they're recap-only and skippable. Some season-opening episodes (e.g. 89) also contain recap-style content.
