If there is someone in My Hero Academia who needs a vacation, it is Shota Aizawa. The poor guy has gone through a lot in the little time he's taught Class 1-A, and fans have come to love the Pro Hero for his surly disposition.
Oh, and thanks to the anime's latest episode, fans have a whole new appreciate for the hero going on. You can blame his man bun for that.
As you can see in the slides below, the anime fandom is still thirsting after Aizawa following his most recent anime appearance. The Pro Hero made a brief showing over the weekend when he was told two of his students were out after curfew. While Izuku and Bakugo battled it out, Aizawa was up late on the computer, and his comfy outfit endeared fans. Then, his man bun came into view, and millions were ready to pledge their love to the man.
While Aizawa wasn't seen much in the new episode, his man bun has definitely left an impression. The pulled-back look is a far cry from how Eraserhead usually looks. Yes, the hero tends to don loose clothing, but this new outfit differs because of the man bun. The surprisingly hipster hairstyle was not something fans saw coming, but it fits the Pro Hero perfectly. So, if creator Kohei Horikoshi knows what is good for fans, he will give them more soft!Aizawa as the series moves forward.
So, do you approve of this Aizawa makeover? Let me know in the comments or hit me up on Twitter @MeganPetersCB to talk all things comics and anime!
