The protagonist of Masashi Kishimoto’s masterpiece, Naruto, followed every basic cliche of an anime main character. He was an annoying individual who had a hidden power within him that he eventually controlled, thus becoming the biggest hero of his village. But there was one thing that was different about Naruto.
Naruto in Naruto Shippuden | Studio Pierrot
He never unnecessarily engaged in fights and battles against enemies. He proved himself to be a good soul by trying to connect to the villains and understand their situation before launching a full-on attack on them. This aspect of Naruto was named by his fans as Talk no Jutsu or Talk-Talk Jutsu.
Although initially it was seen as a decent step on Naruto’s side, fans soon got bored with it and started finding it annoying. However, Kishimoto once revealed the reasoning behind Naruto’s Talk-Talk Jutsu, and it might be much more...

If you think of a lengthy manga with huge arcs, One Piece is the first candidate that comes to mind. Not only is it one of the most famous Shonen series, but it is also one of the biggest. Naturally, the series inspires other writers and incites rivalry.
Who would have known that the author of another equally popular franchise has also been involved in a secret competition with Eiichiro Oda? Kohei Horikoshi, the famed author of My Hero Academia, confessed that he has been in a one-sided competition with One Piece on an unlikely matter.

There is no denying that Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece has had a huge impact on the growth and popularity of the anime and manga world. The series has earned worldwide recognition and has become one of the biggest anime franchises in the world. Still, One Piece’s greatest honor is that it served as an inspiration to a large number of other manga creators.

From My Hero Academia to Edens Zero, many manga creators have tried to carry on Oda and One Piece’s legacy with their own adaptations. However, this was never the intention of Oda. Oda’s purpose in creating the One Piece manga was never to inspire anyone but to rebel against the norms of the manga world.

Generally, anime series are adapted from mangas or comics that have a broad storyline, a bunch of characters, and a central theme.

Castlevania by Warren Ellis | Powerhouse Animation Studios
Castlevania was created and written by Warren Ellis and is based on the Japanese action-adventure video game series.

Later on, the vestiges of One for All and Shigaraki Tomura were able to fully destroy the antagonist.

The epitome of evil in Jujutsu Kaisen, Ryomen Sukuna, is currently defeating every opponent that the Jujutsu sorcerers are throwing at him. Not even legends like Gojo Satoru or Yuka Okkotsu could take down the King of Curses. However, if Sukuna had been in some other universe, the situation would have been different.
Sukuna in Jujutsu Kaisen
For example, if Sukuna somehow reaches the My Hero Academia anime universe, he won’t stand a chance against the Symbol of Peace of Kohei Horikoshi’s world. Although All Might has given up One for All and has become an ordinary man, in his prime, he could have easily taken down Sukuna before the King of Curses could have even activated his curse techniques.

Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man 2 has many iconic scenes that have had a lasting impact. None, however, have been as timeless and memorable as the train scene. From fighting Alfred Molina’s Doc Ock on a moving train to stopping the said train and an entire train car full of people hiding Spider-Man’s identity, it is safe to say the scene left an impact. It has become ingrained in the character’s history, and there have been many attempts to recreate it.

When Akira Toriyama decided to make Broly a part of the canon series in 2018, after a standalone film, fans of the series were thrilled as the character was quite popular in the franchise. Though the character has been only part of three films in the past, its popularity is immense and it can even rival someone from the canon series.

The Saiyan was originally introduced as a villain in the franchise, but has now joined the Z-Fighters and is training on Lord Beerus’ planet like fans saw in Dragon Ball Super: Super Heroes. However, Toriyama-Sensei did not decide to introduce the anti-hero because he was popular in the fandom. This is so because Broly can be solely responsible for bringing back Kakarot’s SSJ4 transformation from Dragon Ball Gt, which was lost as a non-canon form.

The uniqueness of Kohei Horikoshi’s My Hero Academia is reflected in the distinctive designs of the characters in the series. Every character, irrespective of their role in the series, has a certain character design that establishes an image about either their quirk or their personality, depending on which side they are on.

Eiichiro Oda has always been one to take inspiration from other sources and inspire others at the same time. Starting One Piece decades ago, he has seen the advantage of witnessing eras change and evolve with time. There are many famous mangakas who are openly giddy about the ideas that have come to fruition because of Oda’s contributions to the anime and manga industry.

Many of those include Gege Akutami (Jujutsu Kaisen), Yuki Tabata (Black Clover), and Kohei Horikoshi (My Hero Academia).

While the manga world of the superhit series My Hero Academia from Mangaka Kohei Horikoshi sensei is a masterpiece in itself, fans can’t help but fall in love with its anime universe even more. Besides the characters being brought to life with utmost perfection, what makes the anime series all the better are the voice actors who perfectly deliver up to everyone’s expectations.

In fact, as most anime fans would agree, none could do a better job voicing the fan-favorite characters than the voice actors currently employed. This stands especially true when it comes to Okamoto Nobuhiko, the actor who lent his “middle schooler type” voice to the very character that Horikoshi sensei likes “more than” even Deku, i.e. Bakugo, as the mangaka himself expressed.

Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba has been one of the biggest crowd-attractors in recent times, and deservingly so. Studio Ufotable’s unbelievable animation, paired with Koyoharu Gotouge’s gripping tale of struggle, has proved to be the golden combination for blockbusters.
Yuma Takahashi has produced the Demon Slayer anime and worked with it since the first season was produced in 2019. In an interview with Anime News Network, the producer opened up about the anime’s creation process and Koyoharu Gotouge’s role in it.
Tanjiro in Demon Slayer season 3 Was Koyoharu Gotouge Deeply Involved in the Animation Process of Demon Slayer?
According to the interview, Koyoharu Gotouge looked over the scenarios, character designs as well as settings of the Demon Slayer anime. They were intimately involved with the anime creation process. However, the writer also had immense trust in Ufotable, and rather than constantly nitpicking about changes, they just adhered to providing useful advice.

Truly, Kohei Horikoshi sensei has given birth to some of the best fictional projects in the manga world, both one-shot projects as well as full-blown manga series. But while all of them have garnered considerable fan approval, none comes even close to My Hero Academia, the one series that caught almost the entire manga world in a whirlwind ever since it began a decade ago.

However, as much as fans love the superhero world of Mha, Horikoshi sensei seems to have a lot of trouble keeping the saga alive. The major reason behind this isn’t a lack of creativity, but rather, something that could leave his fans utterly surprised. Yet, this problem has a cure too, and just acquiring one quirk could perhaps set the mangaka free from all such struggles!

Kohei Horikoshi sensei has done the magnificent by creating a masterpiece series like My Hero Academia from a figment of his imagination. But while fans love the story and feel they can relate deeply to both the story and the mangaka, what they don’t realize is that the mangaka’s personal choices are far different than theirs when it comes to his favorite characters from the saga.

As it turns out, everyone’s favorite character from the Mha storyline ‘All Might’ is not quite the favorite character of the mangaka as well, even though it was Horikoshi sensei himself who created him. In fact, the mangaka prefers one other, more “rude” character over this fan-favorite one! Yet, as surprising as it may be, the true reasoning behind his choice isn’t so non-understandable either.
