Latest posts by Arthur Monteclar (see all)

Whenever I want to spruce up my living spaces, I always wonder what to add or change to my interior decor. The simple answer is posters! They add more character to any dreary dorm or even game den.

While you can choose any poster or art piece, you might want to show your love for your favorite anime shows like My Hero Academia on your walls! Many consider MHA the best anime there is, and I, for one, can attest that it deserves a spot in your room.

This powerhouse hit series offers so much more—an ensemble of relatable characters living up to their potential, awe-inspiring animation and OST, and memorable quotes plus superb storytelling! And because of its massive fan base, you’d quickly find an assortment of merch and posters to choose from!

In this blog, I will share my top nine favorite My Hero Academia posters. I also included tips and tricks for buying posters online and in-store.

Bottomline Up Front

The best My Hero Academia posters are the ones that evoke a range of emotions while complementing well into your space. These posters can be as detailed, flashy, and eye-catching or as simple yet striking. In this guide, I creatively curate a mix of official art from the series and fan art from the MHA community.

The best among the top nine posters would be Shoto’s Fire and Ice Portrait. It strikes a balance between having intricate details and having that “wow” factor the first time I saw it. Everything in this poster slaps—it envelopes the character’s personality and makes it stand out.

What to Do Before Buying Your MHA Posters?

Check the Dimensions

I’ve always loved collecting anime posters, and I’ve realized one thing: collecting posters take up a lot of your space. That’s why you must be intentional in buying one—or else they’ll just accumulate dust in your cabinets, like some of my posters.

Always check the measurements when you’re planning to buy MHA posters. When gifting one, it’s also best to buy a smaller piece. This way, the recipient can easily find a space to place the poster without worrying about clutter or limited space.

Know What You Want

It’s no secret that MHA posters come in dozens or even hundreds of options. You’ll get easily overwhelmed when looking for a new poster. Worse is, you’d end up not buying any or buying everything all at once.

When looking for an MHA poster, have a specific design, attachment style, and material in mind. It’s best to search for the pros and cons as well. I’d find that the best poster sizes are in A2 (23.4 inches x 33.1inches.) An A2-size poster isn’t challenging to add to your space; it’s also not too small for the artwork to be subdued in your room and not too big to take up the whole wall.

Let’s talk about displaying your posters (aka. attachment styles.) If you’re renting out, consider renter-friendly ways to hang or place the poster since most landlords prohibit drilling holes, nails, or screws. Important note: I’d typically avoid gluing any framed MHA posters since they tend to fall over easily.

Finally, on to the designs! MHA posters are literally everywhere online or even in your local stores. It’s not hard to find one that you love, but if you just need to pick one, I have a fool-proof tip: always with a style that blends in with your room’s aesthetic. This is the best way to make the poster stand out without clashing with your space’s current design.

Be Privy to the Quality

Buying posters online is a disaster waiting to happen; they can be torn or crumpled during handling or delivery. That’s why I prefer purchasing in a physical store; this way, I have more control over how the poster is packed.

However, many reputable shops, such as RedBubble, Displate, or Shop Trends, carefully pack posters in tube containers or even have framing options. This keeps your posters in pristine condition. Read the reviews, especially the low ratings; those are more reliable than the 5-star reviews.

Selection Criteria: How I Choose My Top 9 MHA Poster Picks

My Hero Academia is one of the most popular shonen anime. Its popularity only means one thing: an overwhelming array of options! Picking the best MHA poster is entirely an experience. To help you out in this buying process, here’s how I pick and choose my top favorites.

Overall Design and Impact

I always look at the details and the bigger picture. How did this poster make me feel? Does it exude a positive vibe? Do I want to keep seeing it on my walls?

If yes, then I’d buy it. I also like to strike a balance between visually pleasing yet neat designs. Typically, I tend to choose MHA posters that are filled with colors. On some occasions, I’d also love to have monotone designs for more subtle decor.

Print and Paper Quality

I want my posters to last long despite minimal maintenance. That’s why I’m particularly keen on choosing posters with UV-resistant, fade-proof ink prints. More than that, I also check the canvas or paper quality—how thick it is and what material it is made of.

This can be easy when buying in stores. However, shopping for posters online can be challenging. Always check the reviews, especially the negative ones, when purchasing online.

Complementing the Room’s Interiors

Aside from geeking out and showing my love for anime, I love to display posters. They give life to my room, but that doesn’t mean I buy every poster I like. I’m actually quite picky; I tend to match the poster to my room’s aesthetic. I want to avoid any clash of colors that might make my posters an eyesore.

Every poster in this list is perfectly curated with the information you’ll need, from the size, framing options, paper finishes, and prices to help you in your purchase.

First on the list is this MHA Selfie Poster. I love this because it highlights the ensemble of characters in the show. While the show focuses on Deku and Bakugo’s rivalry, it’s also jam-packed with some of the best characters I’ve seen in an anime! You’ll really look forward to their character arc and story, too, and seeing them all in one poster just feels surreal!

Having most of the Heroes from Class 1A in one frame definitely sets the tone of your room. It boosts your confidence that you can take on any problem with all your might.

MHA Heroes and Villains Collide

best my hero academia posters mha heroes and villains collide

My Hero Academia’s overarching conflict centers on the league of villains and Class 1A heroes from UA High School. This poster screams that and more! It’s perfect for fans who appreciate the clash between the heroes and villains.

Interestingly, Deku isn’t the main focus of the poster, but Bakugo—he is one of my favorite characters in the entire series. The expressions on the faces between the league of villains and Class 1-A make the whole poster stand out. Beyond that, the beaming colors and contrasting juxtaposition of the characters in the poster are a bomb! The way it plays on angles and propositions on the character is intriguing.

Shoto in Fire and Ice Portrait

best my hero academia posters shoto in fire and ice portrait

In the entire Class-1A from UA High, Shoto has the best backstory. While he has this hot-and-cold personality, he warms up to you the longer you watch the anime. In fact, he is my favorite character—I love his character design, and his quirk is just as interesting as his personality.

His quirk also explores the internal conflict in his experience throughout the series. His family life is among the central points of the plot, giving him a lot of exposure.

This poster screams power and intimidation! I love the piercing stare and the domineering stance as he showcases the contrast of his quirk—fire and ice. The details in this artwork highlight Shoto’s intensity and confidence to wield his quirk. For all those reasons, this is part of my top 3 favorite My Hero Academia posters!

Kawaii Shoto in Totoro Onesie

Most fans love Shoto for his obvious good looks, but his character is more than a pretty face. While he usually portrays himself as calm and collected, he can be goofy sometimes! That’s what I love about this poster design.

We rarely see him act funny and out of character, yet in this poster, he looks so kawaii in a Totoro-inspired onesie. It has a solid visual impact despite its simplistic design. I love how it can blend well in any room because of its light and bright colors.

This poster is made of high-quality canvas, so you can guarantee it’s made to last. The print won’t easily fade or discolor—indeed, the perfect gift for your anime-loving friends! It comes with two reels and hooks for easy storage and hanging.

The poster highlights their exciting quirks and presents them in a way that you can’t take your eyes off the artwork. I love the plain white background as it makes the art instantly pop while keeping it minimalist and clean. If you have friends who love the hero-villain clash, this is a perfect poster for them!

best my hero academia posters triple threat in bnw - deku, todoroki, bakugo

Bakugo, Deku, and Shoto are definitely among the most popular characters in My Hero Academia—and that’s for a good reason. The contrast in their background and quirks are just as fascinating to watch as their fight scenes. You’ll have a different fascination for each Hero and their character development.

It’s fitting to pick this 3-in-1 design set as part of my Top 9 MHA posters. The black-and-white details and peculiar orientation of the characters make the poster stand out despite the lack of color. At a glance, it looks unassuming and simple yet oozing with personality.

The design is epic! All Might with Deku, Shoto, Bakugo, and Kirishima in one poster screams beautiful. It all makes sense how the artist highlights the OG main characters of the story. With its eye-catching design and colors, you’ll stare at it for hours. I’m drawn to how the colors are thoughtfully assigned since they’re fitting for every character.

More than anything, the landscape orientation of the poster adds to its appeal. You’ll see their hero(anti-hero) stance—a masterful chef’s kiss of an art! The poster is made from high-quality canvas with an inch of the white border to aid in framing. From handling to delivery, you can guarantee that the poster will arrive without scratches and folds.

Official Poster for MHA Season 3

best my hero academia posters official poster for mha season 3

While some fans think that Season 3 of MHA is a bit lackluster compared to Season 2, the character development, plus the clash between the heroes and villains, adds to the intrigue. There’s a grueling slow burn and an interesting introduction of new students. This poster offers a sneak peek at that and more!

Shoto & Deku – MHA Hope-Inspired Poster

best my hero academia posters shoto mha hope-inspired poster

While browsing through RedBubble, I stumbled upon this design by Eznovax. It’s very reminiscent of the former US President Obama’s HOPE portrait. Shepard Fairey, a street artist, and activist, originally created Obama’s poster. The “HOPE” poster immediately became part of mainstream pop culture—it even inspired some of the most popular characters in anime, like MHA.

I love the color combinations and the subtle details in the artwork. Eznovax, the artist who took inspiration from the HOPE poster, has captured what the art previously conveyed. Deku and Shoto are among the two characters I consider “hope bearers.” They are more than just heroes fighting the league of villains.

Landscape posters are rarely appreciated for their odd composition. However, this poster design screams epic! I love how the artist turns every character’s “trademark” pose into a wholesome comic strip design.

Each hero’s physical expression and stern appearance give you a glimpse of their battle-ready stare. The colors don’t clash and are pretty easy on the eyes. That’s why they’d fit well in any room.

best my hero academia posters what is your power hero trio—bakugo, deku, shoto

This is another remarkable metal poster from Displate! Artist Illona Hibernis’ unique style shines throughout this piece.

The hero trio looks rather sinister and powerful in this artwork. I love the play with colors! If you’re a new fan, you’d hardly recognize the characters.
