My Hero Academia Celebrates Izuku's Comeback With 'BKDK' Art

By Evan Valentine

My Hero Academia has focused on the rivalry between Midoriya and Bakugo for years, with the former bully lightening up on the current One For All wielder thanks to their shared battles against the villains threatening Hero Society. Now, an assistant to Kohei Horiksohi hasn't just taken the opportunity to pit the Class 1-A heroes against one another, they have also revisited the earlier, much less stressful days for both young heroes looking to hold the world together while fighting against All For One.

Shota Noguchi is an assistant to Horikoshi, helping the prolific artist when it comes to bringing My Hero Academia's manga art to life. Besides clearly holding some serious love for Bakugo and Deku, the artist also has shared countless images of Mirko, the rabbit hero, over the years. Luckily, Mirko will play a major role in the upcoming War Arc in the episodes of the anime's sixth season, as the battle against Shigaraki and his forces will mean that all hands are on deck. The young heroes of UA Academy and the professional crime fighters will be teaming up in a bid to keep Hero Society together and most of the heroes that we've come to know won't be leaving this battle unscathed. 

Yoshinori took to their Official Twitter Account to share the new sketches that not only take us into the past of Midoriya and Dynamight, but also share a fresh look at the two popular heroes in the present as they once again test their Quirks against one another in a battle that has been ongoing throughout the series:

While the sixth season is about to arrive early next month, the Final Arc is currently underway in the pages of My Hero Academia's manga as the heroes face All For One and Shigaraki directly. Without diving too deeply into spoiler territory, Bakugo has seen better days and Midoriya is reacting in kind, and despite the overwhelming numbers of heroes facing down Shigarki, the heir to All For One remains the strongest opponent that any of the crime fighters have faced to date.

Do you think Bakugo and Deku will both survive the final battle of My Hero Academia? Feel free to let us know in the comments or hit me up directly on Twitter @EVComedy to talk all things comics, anime, and the world of UA Academy.
