The final chapter will be published in the combined issue 36-37 of Weekly Shonen Jump, scheduled for release on August 5, 2024.

The announcement comes with a message from series creator Kohei Horikoshi, who apologized for the two-week hiatus due to scheduling difficulties and assured fans that the remaining five chapters will be exciting for everyone.

He also expressed his gratitude to readers for their support over the past decade, acknowledging the series' nearly ten-year run.

Check out Horikoshi's message below:

Sorry for the two-week break! My schedule has been stacked up like a millefeuille! There are only 5 chapters left until the end. Some may think, “There are still 5 chapters left?!” while others may think, “There are only 5 chapters left?!” but I will do my best to make sure both sides enjoy the last 5 chapters! Along with Deku and the others!

It was a tough road, but I managed to draw Deku and his friends for almost 10 years thanks to everyone who kept reading. It was like a dream. Thank you very much!
Well then! Let's meet again at Jump!
