My Hero Academia: Vigilantes Season 2 English Dub Premieres January 5 Alongside Simulcast

Crunchyroll has confirmed the English dub schedule for My Hero Academia: Vigilantes Season 2, locking in a simultaneous release with the Japanese broadcast. Dub viewers will receive the full benefit of a same-day release starting January 5, 2026, meaning the English version will run concurrently throughout the Winter 2026 season. This strategy aligns with Crunchyroll's approach for the main My Hero Academia series, ensuring global audiences stay current with the spin-off.

The second season immediately throws the unlicensed heroes, Koichi and Pop Step, into a fresh situation. Law enforcement is tightening its grip on the fallout from the widespread Trigger drug epidemic. Promotional material has already hinted at a significant new antagonist appearing early in the run.

Manuel Aragon is directing the English version. The core returning voice cast, including the actors for Koichi and Pop Step, are confirmed to be back on board.

While the exact episode count has not been officially confirmed at the time of reporting, industry expectations point toward a standard 12 or 13-episode run for the season. This follows the recent release of the creditless opening and ending sequences. Vigilantes continues to serve as an important bridge story, exploring the world of unlicensed heroes operating outside the established Pro Hero system.
