As a seasoned gamer and a devoted fan of anime, I can confidently say that the anticipation for “My Hero Academia: You’re Next” has reached unprecedented heights. Having grown up with the series since its inception, it’s been an incredible journey to witness Kohei Horikoshi’s masterpiece evolve and captivate audiences worldwide. The upcoming film promises to deliver more action, drama, and heart-wrenching moments that have become synonymous with the franchise.
“My Hero Academia: Your Turn Now” Prepares to Elevate the Anime Experience
As a devoted fan, I had the privilege of participating in an interview tailored for Toho International’s launch of “My Hero Academia: You’re Next.” During our conversation, Horikoshi graciously shared his thoughts on the franchise’s overall progress, given its current triumphs. From the manga’s climactic conclusion to the apex of season seven, “My Hero Academia” is brimming with excitement. Despite all this success, Horikoshi remains as grounded and humble as ever.
Exclusive Interview with Kohei Horikoshi
Q: What are your thoughts on the global popularity of the anime series My Hero Academia, which is frequently suggested to newcomers in the anime world? What, in your opinion, contributes to its widespread adoration?
Horikoshi admits that while he’s aware of his work’s popularity overseas, it still seems unbelievable to him. Initially, when creating this manga, he didn’t intend it for international readers and focused mainly on enjoying the drawing process himself. When the manga was published in Japan, he was astonished by the support it received from Japanese fans. What amazes him even more is that people from various cultures are now appreciating his work. He confesses that he can’t explain what makes the series successful, as he tries to ignore such thoughts. In a sense, he doesn’t want to let awareness of his global readership influence his writing style, as he feels it might alter his creative approach drastically. Grateful for the recognition, he prefers not to dissect its reasons.
Have you ever come across any real-life or fictional characters who embody the essence of a hero as portrayed in the series ‘My Hero Academia’, where a hero’s spirit is about selflessly helping others without being asked and bringing joy to people even during tough times?
As a devoted fan, I can’t help but draw a parallel from the movie “Spider-Man 2” (2004) featuring Tobey Maguire. In one scene, Spider-Man valiantly halts a perilous train, revealing his true identity to ordinary passengers. Yet, a child offers him his lost mask and whispers, “I won’t tell anyone.” To me, this moment encapsulates the essence of what it means to be a hero. A hero is an individual who lends a helping hand to common folks, and in turn, those very people become their silent protectors. I believe this definition captures the heart of the question, and I can’t think of anything more to add.
Pondering over Endeavor’s journey as he strives to be virtuous amidst his past mistakes, we see numerous characters in “My Hero Academia” undergoing growth through their struggles and shortcomings. In a universe brimming with superheroes, what significance does it hold to emphasize the characters’ imperfections?
Horikoshi, in a humble manner, prefers not to dwell on self-pity, but when his second series was terminated, he felt a deep despair, believing he might never create manga again. He drew “My Hero Academia” with the hope that if it failed, he would abandon manga creation. This is why “My Hero Academia” was drawn as a tale intended to inspire those who had past errors or broken hearts to try anew. The narrative took this direction due to his personal experiences, yet everyone has experienced regret at some point. It might be that the theme resonated with many readers, but Horikoshi wasn’t deliberately trying to portray character flaws; instead, he organically developed the story from his feelings without forcing it.
Of course! Lastly, would you be able to craft a special message for our enthusiastic fans from the United States and Canada eagerly awaiting this theatrical release?
As a gamer immersed in the world of Horikoshi, let me tell you, this latest theatrical feature has truly outdone itself by expanding the storyline to encompass characters beyond Class A. It’s been a joy to see these characters step into the limelight and contribute significantly to the narrative. Among them all, Mirio’s performance left an indelible impression on me. I genuinely believe that everyone will find something they love about this film. So, sit back, relax, and let the movie unfold its magic, discovering your own personal favorite moments along the way.
“My Hero Academia: It’s Your Turn” will premiere in U.S. and Canadian cinemas on October 11, courtesy of Toho International. If you’re interested in the manga, you can follow the series from the beginning on the Shonen Jump app by Viz Media.
