Top 10 Best My Hero Academia Songs

Peace Sign is arguably my favorite My Hero Academia song. If not, it is at the very least my favorite My Hero Academia opening song. Acting as the first opening for Season 2 of My Hero Academia, it builds up with some "oh" chanting to sync with Izuku looking at his hero All Might in action, jumping high in the sky as if he were flying.

Subsequently, following the logo for My Hero Academia, Peace Sign proceeds to give us an energetic and pumped-up vibe as we see most of the Class 1-A students stretching or breathing in preparation for the Sports Festival held every year at U.A. Then comes the finisher as we see all of the Class 1-A students get together and jump in anticipation on a standstill background as Peace Sign comes to a close.

Truly an awesome opening song, I tell you.

This song is a prime example of why I wish so much anime wouldn't change their intro every 12 episodes.

The first theme song and the best one. I can't really remember how it goes now, but I remember vibing really hard to it.

I listen to this song every day!

Okay, so this opening song for the second cour of My Hero Academia Season 3 just recently came out. While it may be too early to judge it, I have to say that Make My Story by Lenny Code Fiction almost sounds like something that came out of Sonic the Hedgehog! And that's a good thing!

Fitting that the title of the song is "Make My Story," as now that All Might is retired, it's Izuku's turn to be the next wielder of One for All to make his own story of becoming the world's greatest hero. What better arc to start in than in the arc where the students train their own ultimate moves in order to prepare themselves for acquiring a provisional hero license?

It might take some time for me to like this song a little more, but this song easily gets you pumped up for the second cour of My Hero Academia Season 3.

The last time I heard one of UVERworld's songs from an anime, it was from Blue Exorcist. Funny enough, a lot of seiyuu who starred in Blue Exorcist also star in My Hero Academia. That said, Odd Future by UVERworld has two versions that differ greatly from each other: the TV version and the full version.

Personally, I prefer the TV version since, despite being somewhat off sync with some of the scenes in the first opening of My Hero Academia Season 3, it fits and has a better ring to it as the "I keep my ideals" version. As for the full version, I was caught off guard since it differed so much from the TV version. I guess I could say it grew on me a bit, as it transitions from different tones and styles of music with more or less the same verses and lyrics.

Not that I don't prefer the TV version nowadays, but I think both the TV version and full version of Odd Future are catchy earworms of music.

Whereas Peace Sign is my favorite My Hero Academia opening song, Datte Atashi no Hero is my favorite My Hero Academia ending song. If you know me well, you'd definitely know that I'm a huge LiSA fan. And by LiSA, I mean THE LiSA, aka Risa Oribe.

Fair enough, LiSA sang songs for both Sword Art Online and the Fate series, so that's a bonus for me. It really came as a surprise when I heard my sister watching My Hero Academia Season 2, and then I heard this ending song come on with a familiar voice. Now that I've seen Datte Atashi no Hero, both the TV version as the second ending for Season 2 and the full version, I have to say LiSA did an exceptional job on this song.

As expected, her vocals are always incredible. The optimistic and adventurous tone of Datte Atashi no Hero truly fits with Izuku and the rest of the My Hero Academia cast going on a fantasy adventure to explore vast kingdoms and slay dragons and demons.

Funny thing, there was a trend on YouTube where Peace Sign and Sora ni Utaeba were contested for the best opening song in Season 2. That said, when I first heard this song, I was honestly caught off guard since it was so different from Peace Sign. However, over time, I grew to actually like Sora ni Utaeba.

Not to the point that I like it over Peace Sign, but either way, Sora ni Utaeba is a good song on its own merit. In contrast to the light-hearted tone of Peace Sign, Sora ni Utaeba is rather more intense and serious. It conveys this intensity as it pans over the main characters that the second cour of My Hero Academia Season 2 focused on (Izuku, Shouto, Tenya, Ochako, Momo, and Katsuki). It takes it up a notch as the Hero Killer Stain is thrown into the picture, and the former three must take on this new menace.

Overall, a pretty intense and serious song befitting the second cour that would ultimately change the world of My Hero Academia forever.

Got to love the guitar at the beginning of the ending song for the second cour of My Hero Academia Season 3. I haven't heard much of Masaki Suda's songs, but "Long Hope Philia" practically screams "Campfire Song Turned Up to Eleven."

SpongeBob, it looks like your campfire song has some competition! Jokes aside, other than the Narm Charm pace at which Izuku walks in the ending, it's heartwarming to see him walking with and towards All Might and company at the beach in the glimmering water and beautiful sunset. No ending song can top my favorite, "Datte Atashi no Hero," but I can see how this one could be written home in the books for those who like the campfire song feel of "Long Hope Philia."

Before we were given the amazing ending song Datte Atashi no Hero by LiSA, there was this little gem that was the first ending song of My Hero Academia Season 2. Dakara, Hitori ja nai by Little Glee Monster mainly showcases most of the My Hero Academia female cast as they either hang out together or sit by themselves.

On top of that, we also get to see them shine in the spotlight even more as they train at U.A. while the male cast is put to the side. The focus is on the girls, not the boys. The song starts out sweet and then somber, only to return to being sweet and more lively than ever. Overall, this is a pretty good ending song.

While Datte Atashi no Hero is my favorite My Hero Academia ending song, I would be lying if I didn't say that Heroes has a special place in my heart. To me, Heroes just has so much meaning to the coming-of-age story of how Izuku Midoriya would become the world's greatest hero.

Sure, it uses the age-old cliché of the main character running for seemingly no reason whatsoever, but here, it more or less plays it straight or gives the running meaning since the place Izuku is running on is the same beach he cleaned up to prove himself worthy of All Might's power. Complemented by flashbacks of child Izuku playing with an All Might action figure and crying, who wouldn't want to give Izuku a good old hug All-Might style after seeing such an emotionally impactful song like this?

Ah, this ending song is so relaxing and carefree. It's not adventurous like Datte Atashi no Hero or inspirational like Heroes, but Update by Miwa just feels so light-hearted and serene. This makes sense, seeing as a lot of stuff happens in the first cour of My Hero Academia Season 3, with the Summer Training Camp invasion by the League of Villains and All Might facing off against All for One one last time.

This sense of blissfulness and peace in an otherwise action-packed series truly fits well as an ending song. It might be great to listen to if you're feeling exhausted after a long day.

I sing this amazing song all the time. The school festival episode is my favorite episode because of this song.

For the first time in the whole show, we start meeting villains who do not completely adhere to the term "evil." We're shown that each hero's and villain's past is as much a part of who they are as their present. Not all is black and white. Good intentions turn bad, and redemption is possible.

I'm not lying, this is my favorite song. This song sometimes makes me cry. It takes you on an emotional roller coaster, and I love it.

I feel like this was the best one since it shows bits and pieces of everyone's chaotic lives before becoming heroes or villains. Not to mention that unnamed white-haired kid in La Brava's photograph.

This is the most recent one, so it's understandable why it hasn't gotten many votes. I honestly really like this opening. I didn't consider it my favorite until I listened to the full version, and boy, is it sick. I also appreciate this opening because it's the opening for the last, or one of the last, more chill arcs in the series. I'm an anime-only fan, but I know things from looking at the fandom too much.

A very emotional song, it gives you all the feels just listening to it. When you learn about Todoroki's backstory, it just gets better. Todoroki being one of my favorite characters makes this song hold a very special spot in my heart.

It's so good. The little mix of sub and dub in the song makes it one of my all-time favorites.
