The film opened in Japan on August 2. It sold 608,500 tickets, and earned approximately 895 million yen (about US$6.16 million) in its first three days.

The original villain characters for the film are members of a mysterious, big criminal organization called the "Gorrini Family."

Tensai Okamura (Darker than Black) directed the film at BONES. Returning staff members from the television series and previous films include scriptwriter Yōsuke Kuroda, character designer Yoshihiko Umakoshi, and composer Yūki Hayashi. Vaundy performs the film's theme song "Homunculus," and the ending theme song "Gift."

Original manga creator Kōhei Horikoshi served as the general supervisor and original character designer. The film has an original story that takes place around the same time as where the TV anime is currently, with the collapse of safe society. In the film, a mysterious giant fortress and a man who resembles the former "Symbol of Peace" suddenly appear in a society that has collapsed due to war.

The anime franchise has previously had three films. The My Hero Academia: Two Heroes film opened in Japan in July 2018 and opened in India in February 2021. The second film, My Hero Academia: Heroes Rising, opened in Japan in December 2019. It opened in India in March 2021.

The seventh season of the My Hero Academia television anime debuted on April 6, starting with a four-episode My Hero Academia Memories special. The main season seven anime (starting with episode 139 of the overall anime) then debuted on May 4. Crunchyroll streamed the series in India.

The anime will get a final season that will debut in fall 2025.

Cartoon Network India began airing My Hero Academia on television in September 2023. It aired the anime with Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam dubs.

The original manga ended in August 2024. Horikoshi launched the manga in Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine in July 2014. Viz Media publishes the manga in English digitally and in print in North America. Shueisha's MANGA Plus service also publishes the manga in English digitally. Shueisha released the manga's 41st volume in Japan in August 2023, and the final volume shipped in December 2024.
