The official Twitter account for the TV anime adaptation of Kohei Horikoshi's My Hero Academia manga has released the first character visual in their character special visual project. The first character visual is for Shoto Todoroki.
The project includes newly-drawn visuals of five notable characters in Season 6 - Izuku Midoriya, Katsuki Bakugo, Shoto Todoroki, Shigaraki, and Dabi.
The opening theme song titled, "Hitamuki" will be performed by SUPER BEAVER.
The ending theme song titled, "SKETCH" will be performed by Kiro Akiyama.
Season 6 will adapt the "Paranormal Liberation War" arc from the original manga.
My Hero Academia Season 6 is set to premiere on October 1, 2022. The anime will run for two consecutive cours.
1ST CHARACTER VISUAL - SHOTO TODOROKI
Yuki Kaji Comments:
I am impressed by his grim expression, which seems to symbolize the development of the 6th season. I like his sulky face in the movie "World Hero's Mission," but the cool look he has this time, which says "This is Shoto Todoroki!" is also great.
Finally, the 6th season will begin. Todoroki and the others have fought many battles to the death up until now. I'm sure they've already done their best, but from here, the level will go up one more notch. It's like hell. But...in the midst of all this, it is the heroes who show us hope, and I believe that is the appeal of this work, "My Hero Academia. Please fight with us! I look forward to working with you! PLUS ULTRA!"

Crunchyroll streams the series and describes it as:
Izuku has dreamt of being a hero all his life—a lofty goal for anyone, but especially challenging for a kid with no superpowers. That’s right, in a world where eighty percent of the population has some kind of super-powered “quirk,” Izuku was unlucky enough to be born completely normal. But that’s not enough to stop him from enrolling in one of the world’s most prestigious hero academies.
