A leak in the next issue of Weekly Shonen Jump magazine revealed an illustration that will be included as part of the new chapter of the manga written and illustrated by Kohei Horikoshi , Boku no Hero Academia ( My Hero Academia ). The visual in question features Toru “Invisible Girl” Hagakure , one of the heroines whose appearance had not been fully revealed until very recently in the play.
In fact, the visual in question shows her in her hero uniform, which only includes gloves and shoes. However, in this illustration she is shown without her activated quirk, so instead of being completely invisible she is completely visible, which makes for an erotic situation.
That is why this visual became a trend in social networks, inspiring varied opinions such as:
- " The guy refuses to write any good story arcs, but draws a nude underage girl in hopes of attracting readers ."
- “ What in God's name was the author thinking? ».
- " Shit, he had to draw nude minors to keep his manga interesting ."
- " Horikoshi would rather fly very close to the sun and possibly do the same as Rurouni Kenshin, than write better characters ."
- " Twitter has no problem when an illustration shows two underage boys fucking, but they lose their minds when an underage girl appears semi-naked ."
- « I'm confused, did people just realize that this is very normal in shonen manga or did they just get to know the culture with Bou no Hero Academia? ».
- Let 's keep in mind that this character is not a minor in Japan, but he is a minor in the West. So they can get mad at the author all they want, but he has no problems in Japan ."
- " This new generation of fans is always upset about something ."
- « Although I agree that showing a naked woman on the cover of your manga is not really in good taste, I will say that it is a fictional character and I do not think it is exactly confirmed that it is a minor. Correct me if I'm wrong ».
- I do n't know if her hair is green or yellow, but it's nice to finally get to know her face and build. Crybabies can draw her in clothes to make them feel self-righteous if they want ."
- « My problem with you calling double standards at least with this poor example is that the context behind the Bleach cover is very different, the Hagakure one looks like an erotic fanart that you would see on Twitter made by the author instead ».
- « Weekly Shonen Jump approves of this, but not Getou's buttocks? ».
- « And at least, when any other author blatantly draws hotness on the cover, it's just because of hotness or there's a context behind it. The Hagakure one makes me scratch my head because she walks around naked for no reason and now they draw her salaciously ."
- « Let's appreciate the fact that we finally have a complete picture of what she looks like without invisibility, sure she's naked, but her hair and eyes are well designed, why don't we focus on details like that? ».
- « Typical of the disgusting fandom of Boku no Hero Academia, you put Bakugou naked and they praise him, but if you put a half-naked cast girl and they even criticize him with censorship, I remind you that the manga is aimed at the Japanese and they only translate it into their language '.
- « So this confirms that Invisible Girl is naked all the time? ».
- « I find it so disconcerting that people get angry with Horikoshi. Like you don't like it then ignore it. It's his character. He can do whatever he wants with them. Whether he's good or bad, he's still yours. Besides, that's the full power of Hagakure. He is invisible. He tries to be invisible with clothes ».
- " This is just horrible marketing. If I saw this in a store, I'd assume it was porn. I mean, what else could someone who has never heard of Boku no Hero Academia think? It certainly doesn't shout 'superhero action manga ' to me ."
- « It makes a little sense, she never had clothes, so she was always naked every second, it's just that this time her quirk didn't activate. I wonder if she cools fast ».
Synopsis of Boku no Hero Academia
The emergence of "Quirks" - newly discovered superpowers - has steadily increased over the years, with 80 percent of humanity possessing various abilities, from manipulating elements to shapeshifting. This leaves the rest of the world completely powerless, and Izuku Midoriya is one of those individuals. Ever since he was a boy, the ambitious high school student has wanted nothing more than to be a hero. Izuku's unjust fate leaves him admiring the heroes and taking notes on them whenever he can. But it seems that his persistence has borne some fruit: Izuku meets the number one hero and his personal idol, All Might. All Might's Quirk is a unique ability that can be inherited, and he has chosen Izuku as his successor!
After enduring many months of grueling training, Izuku enrolls at UA Academy, a prestigious prep school famous for its excellent hero training program, and this year's freshmen look especially promising. With his strange but talented classmates and the looming threat of an evil organization, Izuku will soon learn what it really means to be a hero.
