The Crawler will keep on crawling through the streets of Tokyo for at least one more season. Today, the popular anime series My Hero Academia: Vigilantes has been renewed for Season 2. The announcement was made after the spin-off series aired its 13th episode in Japan. Along with the renewal, Crunchyroll announced that it will continue to roll out new episodes simultaneously with the Japanese release, and the new episodes are set to debut in 2026. A short teaser was unveiled with the announcement, and you can check it out in this article.
It’s a bit early to tell the arcs that My Hero Academia: Vigilantes will cover, but fans of the manga series by Hideyuki Furuhashi already have an idea of which direction Koichi (voiced by Shūichirō Umeda in the original Japanese and by Jack Broadbent in the English dub), Knuckleduster (Yasuhiro Mamiya/Jason Marnocha) and Pop☆Step (Ikumi Hasegawa/Macy Anne Johnson) will go. Without getting into any spoilers, it’s pretty safe to assume that the trio will keep on banding together to fight petty criminals — and the occasional overpowered villain — while waiting for some recognition.
The renewal also opens the door for more cameos in the anime series. Since it’s closely tied to some characters from My Hero Academia, Vigilantes has included characters that are already familiar to fans of the franchise, such as Present Mic (Hiroyuki Yoshino/Dave Trosko) and Midnight (Akeno Watanabe/Elizabeth Maxwell). The most notable participations of the season included Shota Aizawa (Junichi Suwabe/Christopher Wehkamp), main character All Might (Kenta Miyake/Christopher Sabat) and a major villain whose origins were revealed some episodes ago.
