My Hero Academia Teams with Chiikawa With an Adorable Collaboration

As a seasoned anime enthusiast with over two decades of immersion into the vibrant world of Japanese animation, I must confess that the fusion of “My Hero Academia” and “Chiikawa” has left me utterly captivated and tickled pink! The idea of Deku, Bakugo, and Todoroki as adorable albino felines is an unexpected twist that only the whimsical realm of anime could conjure.


In an anime crossover, “My Hero Academia” hasn’t engaged in battles with teams like the Z-Fighters or the Straw Hat Pirates. However, its protagonists Deku and Bakugo have often shared screen time with other popular shonen characters across various platforms. Weekly Shonen Jump frequently pairs these characters created by Kohei Horikoshi with others from the anime world. In the gaming world, Class 1-A was part of the multiplayer game “Jump Force,” which featured a diverse roster of heroes and villains from the shonen genre. Now, the strongest young heroes from UA Academy are collaborating with some unusual characters in the “Chiikawa” series.

For devoted anime enthusiasts, it’s now official that “My Hero Academia” has concluded its manga after more than a decade of tales penned by creator Kohei Horikoshi. Steering clear of spoilers, we see Deku and his budding superheroes saying their emotional goodbyes to Shonen Jump, as they work through the aftermath of their battle against Shigaraki and All For One. Excitingly, there are still significant developments in store for the anime series’ future. Currently, season seven is unfolding, and if the television show adheres to the source material, season eight might be its finale. Additionally, the shonen franchise has premiered its fourth movie in Japan titled “My Hero Academia: You’re Next“, which is slated for release in North America this fall.

My Chiikawa Academia

Previously, My Hero Academia and Chiikawa collaborated, depicting protagonists Deku, Bakugo, and Shoto Todoroki as albino creatures. More recently, creator Kohei Horikoshi joined the fun by posting art comparing the heroes with the feline characters. Since Chiikawa already boasts a manga and anime adaptation spanning approximately two hundred episodes, this union seems divinely inspired.

If you’re new to the charming crew under the Chiikawa umbrella, let me fill you in! According to their official website, “Chiikawa” is essentially a nickname for some small, adorable creature in Japanese. This series revolves around tiny, quirky characters inhabiting a world that’s both whimsical and somewhat grim. The creative mind behind these lovable beings is Nagano, who initially shared them as a webcomic on Twitter, later published the manga version, and ultimately brought the anime adaptation to life.

Curious about which members of Class 1-A will be partnered together after the series ends? Keep tabs on Team Anime’s updates at ComicBook to stay informed about UA Academy!
