My Hero Academia Artist Beats Up Bakugo in New Sketch
Bakugo has easily become not just a massively popular character in My Hero Academia, but in the anime world as a whole. With the explosive young hero continuing to evolve his Quirk as well as his personality over the years, it's still uncertain as to whether Bakugo will manage to survive the all-out battle against All For One, Shigaraki, and their massive army. Now, an assistant to Kohei Horikoshi has shared a bloody new take on Bakugo as the Shonen's battles continue to become more dangerous.
Throughout both the sixth season of the anime and the Final Arc currently taking place in the pages of the manga, Bakugo's life has been in question as many fans believe that the explosive young crime fighter might be on the chopping block before My Hero Academia comes to a close. Despite his popularity, Bakugo's passing might be the explosion that Midoriya would need to unleash his inner rage and save Hero Society in the process. Luckily for "Dynamight", his life was saved in his fight against Shigaraki recently thanks to Edgeshot coming in with an amazing save that might see Bakugo surviving to see how the Shonen series comes to an end.
Yoshinori, the assistant to Kohei Horikoshi, has shared countless art pieces via their Twitter Account, with many of them focusing on Mirko, younger versions of Class 1-A heroes, and this latest taking the opportunity to imagine a much bloodier Bakugo than what we normally see:

Bakugo has come a long way since he was first introduced in My Hero Academia, perhaps changing more than any other character in the Shonen's history as he went from being a bully to learning the meaning of teamwork and respecting Deku for his acts of heroism. On top of his personality changes, Bakugo has learned how to better master his Quirks during his short career, which is saying something considering how strong the most popular character has grown thanks to the numerous battles he faced. While it's entirely possible that Dynamight doesn't survive the fight against All For One, Horikoshi and his assistants might keep him alive based on his popularity alone.
Do you foresee Bakugo managing to survive the Final Arc? 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.
