The next My Hero Academia anime, Season 6, is in the works and a new key visual for it was revealed.
The Season 5 of My Hero Academia ended its main story with the Paranormal Liberation War arc. Most of the final episodes of the season were dedicated to adapting the Meta LIberation Army arc / My Villains Academia chapters of the manga. Season 6 will thus be picking up right after the Paranormal Liberation arc.

My Hero Academia anime Season 6 Deku Vs Shigaraki visual officially revealed (Updated)
The visual was leaked through the usual magazine leaks a few days prior. After that, on Sunday, November 21, 2021, the key visual was officially published showing Deku and Shigaraki in a hype face-off.
When is My Hero Academia Season 6 releasing, predictions
Keep in mind that the notes on the pages only state that Season 6 is in production, and there is no release date estimate announced. However, seeing the pace of the past My Hero Academia anime releases so far, it's safe to assume Season 6 won't be coming before late 2022 or early 2023. Especially since the anime pretty much caught up to the manga with Season 5, and the manga is less than a full arc ahead.
The pages also tease the Jump Festa 2022 event. A My Hero Academia stage event with the seiyuu is happening there on December 19, where we should hear more about Season 6.
My Hero Academia Season 6 was first officially confirmed with the final episode of Season 5 (Episode 113) with a "TO BE CONTINUED 6th SEASON" message. A short teaser trailer was also published.
