How Many Episodes Are There?
While there is no official information,rumors suggest the first season will run for 12 episodes. Crunchyroll also confirmed today that itwill stream the series as it airs in Japan.
If it is 12 episodes long, it should only cover theBeginning and Stendhal arcs. If it is a bit rushed, it could also start covering the Queen Bee arc by the end of the season.
Spin-off Or Canon Prequel?
WhileMy Hero Academia Vigilanteswas not written by Kohei Horikoshi himself, it is considered canon to the main series. Moreover, Horikoshi has referred to the series in the original manga, meaning that the author himself considers it a canon prequel to the original manga. As Vigilantes has already concluded, if all seasons are about 12 episodes, it could last for 7–9 seasons (it could be more or less depending on the pacing).
