With every hero and civilian cheering Midoriya on for one final push in the fight against All For One, My Hero Academia is inching closer to an epic finale. Here is everything you need to know about the MHA Chapter 422 release date, time, and predictions.
My Hero Academia Chapter 422 release date and time, explained

What to expect from My Hero Academia Chapter 422
If you still need to catch up, we recommend you read up through Chapter 421 before reading further. Even if there aren’t any officially confirmed spoilers for the upcoming chapter, it’s easy to connect the dots and infer where this story is heading next.
At the end of Chapter 421, Midoryia confesses to Aizawa that he no longer has One For All but claims that he still has the ember of the Quirk inside him, and that’s enough to fight. Then, in a beautiful series of panels, Aizawa hands Midoriya an All Might shirt to wear, and Aoyama takes his hand and leads the determined hero into battle. Kohei Horikoshi is delivering one the best final arcs in Shonen manga history, and this final panel of everyone cheering on Midoriya is just one of several that have perfectly captured the spirit of this story. There was also a stunning double-panel earlier in the chapter, showing every hero offering their services despite being battered and beaten. It’s clear that all of the build-up has been for this moment.
In one final mission, all U.A. High School students and teachers are alongside Midoriya in his battle against All For One. Based on the rapid pace of this battle, I don’t expect it to go on too much longer unless there is a major twist or change in momentum. Desperate and almost out of options, All For One has devolved into a hideous creature that no longer resembles a human. I predict that the heroes will prevail within the next few chapters, and potentially put the final bow on this outstanding last story arc.
