‘My Hero Academia’ Fans Are Loving Mama Midoriya Right Now

The latest My Hero Academia was still feeling the tremors of the loss of the Symbol of Peace in All Might after his battle with All For One, and this has put the parents of the young heroes in a particularly rough predicament.

Fans were especially drawn to Midoriya’s mother Inko in the latest episode, as her emotions finally came bursting forth as she almost pulled Midoriya out of U.A. Academy completely.

When All Might comes to Midoriya’s home to ask his mother if he can move into the new dorms at the academy (to better protect them from the villains), she denies it. Although she’s grateful for All Might’s actions, she does not want Midoriya to follow on All Might’s bloody path as a hero. He’s worshipped heroes ever since he was young (which brings a cute flashback of her playing with a young Midoriya), but she admits that she would’ve be happier had he just watched heroes from afar, quirkless.

Not only have fans given Midoriya’s mom their full support, totally seeing where she’s coming from as a parent, they have showered her with more lovefor being strong enough to admit she has a problem with the kind of danger U.A. Academy has put her son in.

She finally decides to allow Midoriya to stay in U.A. Academy after All Might begs to fully invest himself to raising Midoriya as a Symbol of Peace. But even then, she still has her qualms but she knows Midoriya would pursue this life anyway. It’s such a crushing moment, leaving fans completely on her side.

Read on to see what fans are saying about Midoriya’s mom after the latest episode, and let us know what you thought in the comments!

For those unfamiliar with the My Hero Academia juggernaut, the series was created by Kohei Horikoshi and has been running in Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump since July 2014. The story follows Izuku Midoriya, who lives in a world where everyone has super powers but he was born without them. Dreaming to become a superhero anyway, he’s eventually scouted by the world’s best hero All Might and enrolls in a school for professional heroes. The series has been collected into 15 volumes so far, and has been licensed by Viz Media for an English language release since 2015.

My Hero Academia‘s first movie, My Hero Academia: Two Heroes, is scheduled to open August 3 in Japan, but will hold a special World Premiere at Anime Expo 2018. The film is expecting to hits U.S. theaters this Fall. The film will cover a story not seen in the original manga with series creator Horikoshi noting that, “Of course the movie will be filled with Class A’s great efforts, that character’s past that hasn’t been in the manga yet, flashy action scenes, and much more.” The film also previously revealed its first key visual depicting a character fans have never seen before, and a trailer revealing an All Might in his prime.
