Kouhei Horikoshi, el mangaka behind My Hero Academiahas always declared himself a great fan of the manga work of Akira Toriyama, as is Dragon Ball. Like many prominent mangakasgrew up influenced by the greatness that exudes Akira’s work.
We can’t blame him, since Dragon Ball
According to the My Hero Academia mangaka
“I used to go to my community center to watch the Dragon Ball movies. Nowadays, series like Kimetsu no Yaiba or Jujutsu Kaisen have movies that adapt important events from the manga. While that’s fine, I personally prefer the original Dragon Ball movies like the ones I enjoyed, with plots exclusive to the feature films. I really appreciate that all of our movies have kept that focus so far.”
With these statements, it is demonstrated that the films we have had Boku no Hero so far, are outside the main canonical line of the franchiseso the stories, events and characters shown in these films are not linked to the main events of the anime.
What do you think about this?
