My Hero Academia, a manga by Kohei Horikoshi, follows Deku's journey to become the world's greatest hero. With inspiration from American superhero comics, the series remains true to its original idea. From training with All Might to battling evil forces, Deku's story is the central focus. Unlike American stories with flexible plots, My Hero Academia's villains can't easily change sides. Every decision made by characters, like whether to redeem a villain like Shigaraki, has lasting consequences. Unlike American comics that often have multiple continuities, manga like My Hero Academia have linear plots that make character decisions more impactful. While this approach can sometimes lead to backlash from fans, the focus on character decisions is what sets My Hero Academia apart. The series is celebrated for its unique storytelling within the world of manga and should be appreciated alongside American comics.
