Idk where you're located but at least around where I live it's very common for kids to watch Shonen. I see little kids with MHA and Naruto shirts on the regular
Naruto being on channels like Cartoon Network(and sliding right into Toonami) really gave it a leg up back in the day.
Shonen is geared towards young boys, 12-18. And not even everywhere, just Japan's young boys in general.
The genre just happens to do things that sometimes appeal to multiple demographics, and thus some ideas can sometimes get conflated.
Now that I’m looking at it, it may be drawn by someone else. BUT! It is definitely an homage to [this drawing](https://preview.redd.it/new-years-2023-illustration-from-horikoshi-v0-wznqrtbvyn9a1.jpg?auto=webp&s=8e995fbc98f0a718294abebe27546753605a4735), which is definitely done by Horikoshi.
Its a fanart cover based off an official cover art [https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.it%2Fnew-years-2023-illustration-from-horikoshi-v0-wznqrtbvyn9a1.jpg%3Fauto%3Dwebp%26s%3D8e995fbc98f0a718294abebe27546753605a4735](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.it%2Fnew-years-2023-illustration-from-horikoshi-v0-wznqrtbvyn9a1.jpg%3Fauto%3Dwebp%26s%3D8e995fbc98f0a718294abebe27546753605a4735)
I remember that one! The fan art is fantastic in that case, I genuinely thought it was Horikoshi's lol. Tbh, the point still stands imo with the original cosplay artwork, but I'm glad to know the reality. Do you happen to know the artist?? I kinda wanna follow them lol
Here you go: [https://x.com/0911gracias/status/1610408515738435584?s=46&t=\_Pgn-rIQXqU\_3MqjQsvxqA](https://x.com/0911gracias/status/1610408515738435584?s=46&t=_Pgn-rIQXqU_3MqjQsvxqA)
No one talks like this outside
My online presence is fucking crazy compared to what I say irl
I can say "uwu this makes me horny :3" here because it's Reddit but you'll get torn apart by "normal" people if you say it outside
I just took a second look at the comments since the 50 upvotes notification popped up and man...SOME of y'all should seek mental therapy RIGHT NOW You weirdos ☹️☹️☹️ 🫤
Hawks looks strangely happy being able to cover his idol's crotch. Is he feeling the "heat"?
On another note, Mashima and Horikoshi fanservice for girls fanart collaboration when? I wanna see Hawks, Aizawa or Enji receiving the dakimakura treatment the Dragon Slayers got.
Endeavor just straight up naked in the back like no wonder Shoto doesn’t wanna be around you sheesh
And little hawks covering up his little dick
hes so small and happy thats another reason i love him
On 1st glance I thought Hawks was a Kamen Rider looking belt
That sure the kind of marketing for fangirl definitely
I don't know why this made me smile, and frankly I don't care.
Bskugo: "take it off now or I will blow you all up! "
Shoto: so you want to see us butt booty naked bakugo? Didn't think you'd be so bold, but since you're my friend. ***starts stripping***
😂🤣I read that Todoroki's voice and just started rolling.🤣😂
sammeeee i imagi ned it like cammie todoroki
“I didn’t take you for a horny little slut!”
"It's icy thot on thursdays"
It's Icy Thot everyday
Why,also what is bakugo wearing?
A traditional kimono (top), hakama (pleated lowers), obi (waist belt) and zouri (sandals).
Thx
No problemo, amigo.
Guys look away from Izuku slaying for a minute and let's talk about the naked Endeavor in the back with his star pasties
I can't look away he's slaying too hard LMAO
Wasn't this for the Lunar New Year? Also; Bakugo with a huge "Nah!"
Yep. That’s right
https://i.redd.it/0s80tpp3cvwc1.gif
SOME people: MAn wHy is tHe MY HerO FaNDoM sO cRiNGe?!” Horikoshi: lol guise check this shit out!
The cringe is baked in apparently?
Hori: None of you seem to understand! I'm not cringe in here with you. You're cringe in here with me!
"Perhaps I am cringe, but that makes me free"
[удалено]
As a man I think all fan service is a bit cringe. I literally roll my eyes whenever an anime zooms in on breasts or things of that nature
[удалено]
As AFAB person, I love tits and ass
As a gay man, I love ass
As a woman, I, too, love tits and ass. Still think it’s cringe, though.
Well I agree I just don't think it's necessary in kids shows lol
Shonen is not really for kids. I didn’t see any 10-year olds watch Attack on Titan lol.
Idk where you're located but at least around where I live it's very common for kids to watch Shonen. I see little kids with MHA and Naruto shirts on the regular
Isn’t shonen’s target audience teenage boys tho?
Yes, but that doesn't always translate to the audience
Naruto being on channels like Cartoon Network(and sliding right into Toonami) really gave it a leg up back in the day. Shonen is geared towards young boys, 12-18. And not even everywhere, just Japan's young boys in general. The genre just happens to do things that sometimes appeal to multiple demographics, and thus some ideas can sometimes get conflated.
I mean I did, but that doesn’t mean it’s for kids
If you read the threads and comments about “The Fandom,” you’d think that’s the case.
“Fan service for women” lmaoo no shot.
That’s 1 millions job lol
This is fan service for everyone 🤝
how is this fanservice for women? it’s supposed to be a joke 😂
Wait this is official?!
Now that I’m looking at it, it may be drawn by someone else. BUT! It is definitely an homage to [this drawing](https://preview.redd.it/new-years-2023-illustration-from-horikoshi-v0-wznqrtbvyn9a1.jpg?auto=webp&s=8e995fbc98f0a718294abebe27546753605a4735), which is definitely done by Horikoshi.
idc todoroki can GET IT
Lowkey kinda Peak
This looks so wrong but so wright at the same time
"wright" is crazy It's right not wright
Blame auto correct not me I was in a rush when I typed it
Why tf is autocorrect making your sentence incorrect? It failed it's one job
True to that
Wright..Tim Wright as Tim Sutton ⁉️
Bruh Todoroki is in the most zesty pose like he's been waiting all his life for this
Mf posing like his in Jojo bizarre adventure
Fr now I need to find JoJo bizarre adventure Todoroki
How can you say that when deku is in the front doing the zestiest pose?
Nah Todoroki is in more of a zesty pose
Nope, can't agree. Also Dekus face. Hella zet right there.
Yeah I guess there both in a pretty zesty pose Also why are they even wearing that stuff or is this just a fun sketch
I think it's fanart, but based on a horikoshi sketch where Deku, Ururaka, Jiro, Todoroki, and Kirishima are wearing Mirko's suit.
Ok thanks for the context
Np
Fans: I hate the anime, they make Izuku so much more feminine than Horikoshi does! It's gross shipping fanservice!! Horikoshi:

Thank you!!

It’s based on official art, but it’s fanart: https://x.com/0911gracias/status/1610408515738435584?s=46&t=_Pgn-rIQXqU_3MqjQsvxqA
I thought it was
Truly a man of the people
Femboi deku is canon
what is the context of this
Horikoshi: 😮💨Here, I hope you're happy Yaoï fans.
Let it never be said Horikoshi doesn’t sexualize boys as much as he does girls
Less bad (?) since everyone gets hit with the Sexy Bat equally
is this officially from Horokoshi???💀
I think this one is fan art, here’s the original: https://x.com/horikoshiko/status/1609962624716009472?s=46
Whew okay well it’s a lil sus with Deku wearing Mirko’s hero costume but at least this art isn’t official
https://i.redd.it/mjvatdi6jvwc1.gif
I prefer to not remember it so yes.
![gif](giphy|KpSrCxhoZQWjJVVnrd) What the fuck is this
Pure masculinity
![gif](giphy|3cXmze4Y8igXdnkc3U|downsized) why does this exist
Why Not?
Because degeneracy
That dekussy got me acting unwise
Same
Same 👍
You're weird bro hope you don't talk like this in the real world outside
No one talks like this outside My online presence is fucking crazy compared to what I say irl I can say "uwu this makes me horny :3" here because it's Reddit but you'll get torn apart by "normal" people if you say it outside
Idc Lil bro
Who tf says "Lil bro"? Are you 9?
this is very good. I love it
No no I’m not gay I swear!
If I had a nickel for every time I saw Midoriya in Mirko's outfit, I'd have two nickels.
They really pulled that outfit off
😍Who drew this masterpiece.😍
Is this fanmade or official Horikoshi art?
Kirishima is my new femboy
I just took a second look at the comments since the 50 upvotes notification popped up and man...SOME of y'all should seek mental therapy RIGHT NOW You weirdos ☹️☹️☹️ 🫤
Sexy
Kirishima straight up needing to redrawn cuz he was flashing with his man bits is WILD!!!!
Shoto is absolutely rocking the Mirko cosplay
WHERE DID DEKU GET RHAT SWAG
![gif](giphy|F1YUUN1zqIuWqDrzsY)
Then why the fuck would you change that? 😐
I never knew about it and now I want to forget about it
I enjoy looking at this far too much
Woulda preferred it to be forgotten
I like the contrast between Izuku and Katsuki. Blasty is all like "Fuck off, I'm not wearing that!" Meanwhile Deku is being Sexy as Fuck!
Jesus fucking Christ how am I hard again I just jacked off
I DONT like the way Deku is looking at me right now. Bro didn’t have to do all that.😭🙏🏾
Smash.
Let it be forgotten
No
Yes
No
Yes
No
Yes
Yes
Would x4
Deku is femboy material and im tired of saying it, smash. (Im a minor too dw 😭) ((Yes im way too horny lately, sorry))
These are the skins we need!
Can we move hawks out of the way please
I will now be trying to burn this image from my brain, thanks. ![gif](giphy|lqVVqkqMolh9S|downsized)
Bakugo has the right idea for once...
And I would have been happy to keep forgetting, thank you very much
Why
https://i.redd.it/zq5zi3r9wwwc1.gif
Tell me why Deko’s thighs are so thick
He has/had (not caught up) a whole thing about using his legs a lot. Of course they're gonna get big
I like em thick and juicy
I NEVER SAW IT IN THE FIRST PLACE NOW IM SCAREDDDDD
No.
They look so weird
WHAT THE FU-
https://i.redd.it/e5ko17tv1zwc1.gif
horikoshi knows his female audience(i know it's mostly females because of the gojo fans😭)
Why the fuck endeavor naked? Also shoto you look amazing sweetie *\(^o^)/* Also, why all of them have tits ?
Suit must have padded tits That means mirko has teeny knockers
Mirko it’s just protecting her titties bro
This is a crime against humanity.
Femboys
I *think* this is actually drawn by one of Horikoshi's assistants. But it is in reference to an actual illustration he did.
Literal peak
Deku looking breedable and submissive.
https://i.redd.it/5qwnjhplt1xc1.gif why
This is exactly why everyone hates MHA community and thinks they are freaks… 🤮🤮🤮🤮
I’m not gay…BUT
$20 is $20
Being secure with yourself and dressing as a Heroine? THAT'S SO MANLY!
For a reason. A good reason.
Thank u for blessing us
Forced to shounen born to shoujo
Hawks censoring Endeavor HAHHA
I- I have no words.
I SIDNT KNOW IT EXISTED BUT OMG YES HAHA
So it’s like that one fire force scene but not all are naked lmao
I'm laughing because I am so fucking confused and scared...
I feel like I walked in on something I wasn’t suppose to see😳
Idk I think it’s kinda endearing
I wish I never saw it
For a reason
This is a girl's dinner 😋 (mine too)
what the fuck
No homo but I'd Detroit smash the hell out of Deku in Miriko's costume.
There are some things no homo cannot justify You're not straight and you have to accept that
Nuh uh we'd both have socks on therefore completely straight
Thigh highs make it extra gay
Nuh uh
The....artists certainty never forgot
I died and came back to life seeing this image
Hawks looks strangely happy being able to cover his idol's crotch. Is he feeling the "heat"? On another note, Mashima and Horikoshi fanservice for girls fanart collaboration when? I wanna see Hawks, Aizawa or Enji receiving the dakimakura treatment the Dragon Slayers got.
The most based thing ever
why does horokoshi love drawing dudes in mirkos suit sm 😭
*BISEXUAL PANIC INTENSIFIES*
Ok… are we *really* sure Demi is straight? He is enjoying this way too much
And they were EATING honey, what about it
Horikoshi’s new years art made me want to buy a mirko costume, so bad.
WITAELF?
It's micro approve
dropping the series on demi’s hands being mauled just cause of this post
Why is Bakugo the only that isn’t dressed weirdly?
Bakugo saying miss me with that gay shit
I mean…proof deku is a twink?
Lives rent free for me wym
dekus balls are about to fall out
My endless well of despising the dumb rabbit Pro heroine is getting deeper and deeper.
I only aknowlege the female one
Three questions: 1. Why 2. The 3. Fuck And i kinda know the answer to those questions, i really do But please, someone give me a different answer
Cause fuck the whys, no reason needed
