Fans of My Hero Academia are in for a treat! The upcoming Blu-ray and DVD release of My Hero Academia THE MOVIE: World Heroes' Mission (set for February 19, 2024) will include a special bonus: an exclusive anime adaptation of Kohei Horikoshi's original manga short story, A PIECE OF CAKE. This new animation has been crafted by Studio Bones and comes with fresh voice recordings from the beloved cast.

What is “A PIECE OF CAKE”?

Originally featured in the Vol. Next special comic, distributed to theatergoers during the movie’s release, A PIECE OF CAKE offers a delightful glimpse into the daily lives of Class 1-A. This short story acts as a prologue to the dramatic events of the film, setting the stage for Deku, Bakugo, and their classmates’ heroic moments.

The tale unfolds just before the movie’s main plot, where the heroes face off against the villain Dark Might, alongside a mysterious girl, Anna, and her loyal butler, Julio.

Exclusive Content in the “Plus Ultra Edition”

The Plus Ultra Edition of the Blu-ray and DVD offers more than just the anime adaptation. Here's what fans can look forward to:

Enhanced Movie Scenes: Updated by Studio Bones, ensuring an even more powerful viewing experience.
Special Booklet: A 44-page collector’s item packed with interviews, concept art, and designs by Horikoshi.
Postcards & Illustrations: Featuring visuals created by Horikoshi for promotional materials and shared on social media.
“Ultra Disc” Bonus Features: Including event highlights from Los Angeles and Japan, with appearances by the main voice cast.
Special Event Ticket Priority: Get a chance to secure tickets for the My Hero Academia 2025 Special Event.

All of this will be packaged in a custom-designed case by character designer Yoshihiko Umakoshi, making it a must-have for collectors.

Why Fans Shouldn’t Miss It

The A PIECE OF CAKE adaptation is more than just a bonus feature—it’s a continuation of Horikoshi’s vibrant world-building and a celebration of the beloved Class 1-A characters. Combined with the Plus Ultra Edition’s host of exclusive items, this release promises to be a treasure trove for fans.
