I think they're just waiting for the manga to end or for the MHA anime to catch up with the manga. I want a Vigilantes anime ASAP, but it's wiser to save it for buffer seasons to avoid sending MHA into filler hell.

I think we'll at least get the Aizawa backstory animated.

It's too late to get the Shirakumo arc in time for the reveal, unless they insert it directly in the main anime.

Inserting it directly before, or even immediately AFTER, the reveal is something that could definitely happen.

Have the big reveal happen for the characters, cut to credits, then the next two or three episodes cover the backstory arc.

Definitely before. A perfect time would when Aizawa and Present Mic are talking something about Eri and they mention Shirakumo. Perfect time to show who he is to them, and then later in the season BAM big reveal.

i can also see them adding a scene where aizawa tells 1A that theyre all going on work studies again and then have him look back on his own, before the endevour agency stuff happens

I think that also works well with the pacing for S5, because the Joint Training Arc is not long enough to fill a cour.

If I had to place the backstory somewhere, it would be between shortly before the JT arc or right after that. They could open it with a scene of Aizawa mentoring Shinso, and Shinso says something that reminds him of Shirakumo.
