My Hero Academia: You're Next is the latest movie in the My Hero Academia franchise. Typically, My Hero Academia movies (of which this is the fourth) are set during the season of the anime in which they're released, and that's true here as well.

Due to a number of clues, it's possible to pin down exactly when the movie is set, even without resorting to spoilers. These clues are found both in the movie itself as well as the anime series. Since season 7 of the anime has largely been focused on the final confrontation between the heroes and villains, it's obvious that the incident depicted in the movie takes place just before that conflict goes down, but what's less apparent is just how close the events of the movie are to the final battle seen in the series.
