In a recent press release from the My Hero Academia manga staff, it has been informed that Kohei Horikoshi, author of the work, will take a two-week break to give the climax to the manga. After offering us chapter 424, which takes us to the epilogue of the story, the calm after the storm where the world of the heroes is slowly rebuilt. We see many characters having a satisfying ending, despite the wounds, our characters stand firm looking ahead.

Let us remember that the mangaka on previous occasions has had health problems that have kept the work paused in a worrying way, contrary to forecasts, Mr. Horikoshi has ended up recovering and taking care of his health so that this does not happen again. That is why we note that the artist is offering some breaks so that his health is not affected and the work with this.

The manga has kept a steady pace in its climax, having its name in the trends for the events and tension of the climax, now providing some brightness for the fans. We know that My Hero Academia is one of the shonens that served as mainstays of the past decade, so this climax is awaited by many with high expectations. The author’s health has always been an important element, as we mentioned, Kohei Horikoshi has a fragile health, not long ago he had a relapse, which we detailed in this note of our page that affected many fans for fear of “indefinite pause”.

Fans maintain moral support to the author of My Hero Academia, saying things like “no matter how long he rests, Horikoshi must stay healthy”, or “he must rest more, Horikoshi-sensei”. Something curious is that also the mangaka of Jujutsu Kaisen, Gege Akutami, has taken a two-week break because he is somewhat ill, could they be accomplices, let’s just hope that both come back rested and ready to give us the best endings of this decade.

The story of My Hero Academia has accompanied us since its 2014 release with the story of a young boy named Izuku Midoriya, who is born without powers in a world where heroes and villains exist. The life of this boy has been criticized by many, “useless” or “useless”, since not having powers makes you less in this society of special people. Midoriya is a fan of heroes and despite having no special abilities, he wishes to become one. That’s why he decides to become in the Hero Academy.

His will makes him follow the number one hero, All Might, it is at a critical moment where his friend Bakugou is being absorbed by an evil villain, Izuku, with no powers or abilities, rushes to save him. All Might comes to the rescue observing the boy with no abilities in the process, noticing a unique glow about him. This is the story where the weak boy falls to his knees crying, as his admired hero points his finger at him saying “You can be a hero.”

A story of ups and downs where the life of a young boy with no powers becomes the hero who saves the world from evil. My Hero Academia is one of the pillars that every fan should give a chance.
