Volume 22. The emotional whiplash from the School Festival arc to this is something else. It's like the series took a deep breath and then screamed.

Can we appreciate that Horikoshi managed to stick the landing? So many long-running series fumble the finale. But having a clear, definitive end to the primary conflict (vol. 39) and then taking time for a proper, lengthy epilogue is a masterclass in satisfying storytelling. It respects both the plot and the characters.
Knowing that, I'd never tell someone to stop at volume 39. I'd tell them the main conflict ends there, but to absolutely read the rest. The epilogue is what makes the journey feel truly complete and worthwhile. It's not a separate story; it's the essential final note.

Yeah, 15 through 21 is the call. What's interesting is how the tone shifts within those volumes. The beginning is all tension and preparation, then it explodes into this massive, chaotic free-for-all battle.
By the end, it's more introspective, dealing with the consequences of who passed and who didn't. Deku's development with Shoot Style gets serious focus here too.

Honestly, the weekly chapter discussions are so vibrant that the volume release almost feels like a victory lap. We all know what happens, but getting to see it polished and collected is a joy. Volume 42 is that victory lap for one of the most intense phases of the war.

The silent panels of Shigaraki in the tank are maybe the most effective setup. No dialogue, just this chilling visual of the main antagonist being reborn as something monstrous. It’s a powerful, wordless promise of the horror to come. That image alone tells you the next arc will be darker, more body-horror infused, and will feature a villain operating on a completely different level. It’s visual storytelling doing the heavy lifting of tone-setting.

Honestly, I found the setup a bit clunky compared to the tighter, self-contained stories of earlier volumes. It feels like the author had a checklist of plot points to resolve before linking to 'My Hero Academia'. We get a lot of exposition dumps about the Villain Factory's origins and Number Six's connection to All For One that, while important, slow the pacing down. The character moments for Koichi and Pop are still there, but they're sandwiched between big, lore-heavy sequences.
It's necessary homework, I suppose, but it loses some of the charming, low-stakes vibe that made 'Vigilantes' special in the first place. You can see the gears turning to position everyone for the finale, especially with the pro heroes starting to take a more active interest in Naruhata. It works as a bridge, but it’s not the volume I’d recommend to someone for its standalone quality.

It’s the point of no return for so many characters. Endeavor can’t hide his family drama. Hawks’s double life reaches its endgame. Dabi’s secret is a ticking time bomb. Everyone’s lies and half-truths are collapsing under the weight of the coming battle. The setup is all about truth coming to the surface, violently.

The beauty of MHA's structure is its accessibility. You want the correct order? It's 1, 2, 3, 4... up to 38 or whatever we're at now.
No gimmicks. Some series have flashback arcs that you're supposed to read later, or parallel stories. Not here. It's a classic shonen progression. One volume ends on a cliffhanger, and the next one picks it right up. Your local library probably has them all in sequence, too. A perfect binge-read.

Thinking about it in terms of story arcs: the USJ Arc, Sports Festival, Stain, Forest Training, Kamino, License Exam, Overhaul, Gentle Criminal, Paranormal Liberation War... all of that is in volumes 1-40.
So if you consider the 'main saga' to be the collection of all major arcs, that collection is currently 40 volumes long. There is no arc that exists outside of those numbered books. So, your answer is derived from simply counting the sequentially published tankobon. That count is 40.

Without spoiling, let's just say the status quo is shattered. The 'hero society' they've been training to join is fundamentally broken right now. The progression is measured less in territory gained and more in shattered ideals and reforged convictions. It's some of the best writing in the series, in my opinion.
