Yuki Tabata’sBlack Cloverhas been an underrated gem ever since it was first published all the way back in 2015. However, the title is not gradually receiving the praise it deserves from the Otaku community, as fans have realized how the manga artist’s work is the most consistent among all the new-gen authors. Additionally, the mesmerizing fictional world and the epic fights featuring Asta and the Black Bulls.

The Shonen series possesses all the key ingredients necessary to make a big name in the genre. However, it was the downfall of Kohei Horikoshi’s magnum opus,My Hero Academiathat led to the fans praying for Tabata-Sensei’s work. Horikoshi-Sensei’s work was flawless.

Sadly, the mangaka featured one annoying feature following his protagonist, Deku, that low-key felt so annoying that it ruined the aura of the character and lowered the stakes in a battle, as it breaks a forbidden rule of anime!

Kohei Horikoshi’sMy Hero Academiais arguably one of the best titles that has been entertaining its fandom for a decade. The series is believed to take the world by storm and has the whole community singing its praises.

The series had it all, from an enchanting world full of superheroes and villains with unique Quirks to a gripping story of the protagonist’s journey, everything was perfect, except it had one grave mistake that put an elephant-sized hole in the legacy of the series.

In any anime and manga title, the training arc of the protagonist is the key element; without it, any series would feel incomplete, cutting short the protagonist’s growth and making him feel hollow. A similar incident happened with Horikoshi-Sensei’s Deku, as he decided to cut short the practice hours of his protagonist.

In the series, Izuku Midoriya is the user of One for All, a Quirk that he inherited from his idol, All Might. Apart from super strength, the Quirk features the abilities of the previous users as well. Well, he was not able to use all six of his abilities right away, but the decision to learn the traits too quickly—that too offscreen feels immensely infuriating as a reader and a watcher.

Even the fan community despises this because they all watch the story to witness Deku’s journey in real-time. However, Horikoshi-Sensei’s decision to showcase the training in a flashback for a couple of minutes could not save it. Hence, creating a major flaw that could have easily been avoided if he wanted to.

On the other hand,Yuki Tabatahas ensured that he features the training arc of not just his protagonist but also the side characters. This is a wise decision from the creator, as he ensures that fans can’t criticize him on the same trope that ruinedMHA’slegacy.

The working hours in the manga industry have always been a matter of concern; it escalates to the point where a mangaka might sleep in his office to compensate for the strict deadline. Tabata-Sensei’s life was also a mess when he was a part of Shueisha’s publications in 2023.

Being a part of the Weekly Shonen Jump put immense pressure on him because coming up with industry-standard art with a consistent storyline each week that too, under strict time limitations, affected his personal life. This eventually led to a poor work-life balance, until he decided to change to Jump GIGA, which was a blessing in disguise.

A fan (@Promithean11) shared the last message of the author for his readers, where Tabata-Sensei gives an update on how his life has changed for the better. He wrote,

Great to hear Tabata’s feeling better and his friendship with Horikoshi is so wholesome. It’s funny how mangaka get along really well, but the fandoms constantly fight with one anotherpic.twitter.com/OKrziOCOrP

With more time to spend with his family and enjoying the subtle pleasures of life, the artist’s creativity is at an all-time high.

Moreover, working at a comparatively slower pace would keep him happy, giving him ample motivation and ideas on how he could give a perfect ending to Asta’s journey, which would end perfectly unlikeDeku.

My Hero Academiacan be streamed on Crunchyroll.
