Attraction 4: The absence of a heroine
出典 : Amazon.co.jp
Popular works such as “Tokyo Gator,” “Gintama” and “FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST” often don’t actually have a heroine like heroines. In “My Hero Academia”, there are many female characters, but no heroine. Maybe that’s part of its charm!
Here’s a summary of some of the most popular female characters in particular.
Ochako Uraraka
She is close to the protagonist, Deku (Izuhisa Midoriya), and is the most heroine like female character.
At first glance, she seems innocent, but her reason for wanting to become a hero is “to earn money and be useful to her family’s business”, which is very realistic. We don’t get to see her in battle that much, but she can be an oasis for the reader with her peaceful mindset of “it’s more fun to work with someone you get along with” within the gruff and giggly Yuuei High School.
He takes a liking to Deke! It’s heroine like at points, but Ochako is also trying to be a hero, so there’s no hint of a heroine event like waiting for Deku to come home or the start of a loverly romance.
Momo Yaorozu
A brilliant student who was recommended to Yuei High School. She came first on the academic test and has a strong personality, but sometimes feels inferior when she compares herself to another recommended student, Todoroki, who was a runner-up in the gym festival and had a great performance.
She is a stubborn young lady who wants to shop at Donkey’s and uses a canopy bed on a regular basis in tense situations. She has excellent grades and is rich, but is very humble and well-liked. She is a popular pairing with Todoroki.
Tuyi Asui
She looks like a frog and has a froggy mascot personality. But in reality, she is one of the calmest and most mature female characters in the work. She also seems to have unexpectedly large breasts. She loves her friends and asks anyone who wants to be her friend to call her “Tsuyu-chan”. She doesn’t excel at the athletic festival or academic tests, but the gap between her lovable nature and her big sisterly nature makes her a popular character.
Many of the female characters in Boku no Hero Academia are solid, which may be one of the reasons for the absence of the heroine.
Summary
I’ve summarized the appeal of “My Hero Academia”, but the key points are “ease of understanding” and “attractive characters”.
Boku no Hero Academia” has only just passed the 20th volume. It is very much expected to see where it will end up.
