Before I even knew what anime and manga was I had DC Comics in my life. Still to this day Batman is by far my favorite character of all time. Its easy to say that without American Comics I probably would have never dove into anime and manga to begin with.
The reason for this is we all know many anime stories revolve around specifics in Japanese culture that may not translate seamlessly to audiences outside of Japan, but My Hero manages to marry elements from the East and West to appeal to Manga and American Comics all over the world. At the forefront, My Hero Academia is a traditional shonen action manga, but it’s also a traditional Western superhero comic with tributes to the heroes that American fans surely know and love.
My Hero Academia embraces analogs of other famous American comic book characters. Horikoshi’s creation All Might represents every aspect of the pure heroic ideal in the same way that the Silver Age Superman did. In fact, most of Horikoshi’s characters adhere to the same black-and-white morality that the Silver Age of comics embodied. All Might always fights to the bitter end while never giving up, and he’s willing to throw his life on the line for innocents with a smile on his face.
My Hero Academia is the best blend of everything great in both mediums. If you’ve ever liked American comics, then this is your best gateway into the manga scene.
This series is rapidly becoming my favorite series of all time and I can't wait to see what the future brings from this Great manga and anime
PLUS ULTRA!!!
