My Hero Academia: Deku's Dark hero costume fading in on his face.

SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary My Hero Academia's newest chapter wonderfully subverts the villain's observations about suffering, and in so doing manages to upend one of shonen manga's most ingrained tropes. Surprisingly, this pearl of wisdom is brought up by a character one might least expect: Sero.

Tragedy and Suffering are Intrinsic to the Shonen Hero What makes Sero's statement such a bold one is that it goes against common conventions of writing, particularly for shonen series. In many shonen series, like Fullmetal Alchemist, a tragic event is what spurs the characters to go on their quest to begin with. A tragic backstory is an easy way to instantly make a character sympathetic and relatable, and thus it's commonly used .

Since shonen heroes are so looked up to and admired, that often puts the suffering that they undergo in order to attain their power in an odd place. Some fanbases will brush it under the rug, choosing to focus on their achievements moreso than how they achieved them, while others become obsessed with the suffering, as if that itself is the key to becoming stronger.

The line is a bit more poignant than it seems at first, and feels as if it comes directly from creator Kohei Horikoshi himself. As seen with Shigaraki , tragedy can turn one into a villain just as easily as it can turn them into a hero. Tragedy and suffering change a person, without a doubt, but it's not always going to be a change for the best. If one can be a hero without undergoing senseless loss, then there's no reason to elevate the suffering of heroes, as so many shonen series do.
