There is no doubt that “My Hero Academia“It is one of the most representative shonen franchises today and, although the manga is in its final stretch, the anime adaptation is currently airing its seventh season. The anime has also begun its climax storyline, but one scene in particular has been trending on social media because it showed a “tremendous butt.”

This is a scene in which Himiko Toga, the popular villain of the franchise, approaches to attack Izuku Midoriya from behind. The scene, taken exactly from the manga, shows this moment from behind Toga, so fans were able to witness what could be seen under her skirt. In fact, unlike the original manga panel, the anime adaptation showed off her butt quite well, with some sharing the frame and saying: “Watch the anime, the manga is poorly adapted.“.

And now comes the reality check, as everything you've read so far was a complete lie. The popular painting was actually an edit made by Twitter artist “Sakkaku_Gavrii (@SGavrii)”, who altered the original painting to show more of Toga’s behind. In fact, the actual scene accurately captures the original manga panel, showing a dark area between the character's legs.

  • REAL ANIME IMAGE

This is just another case of anime fans believing the first thing they see on the internet.without bothering to do a little more research or, why not, watch the most recent episode to confirm what they saw. But, of course, this did not go without comments:

  • Phew, this is one of those moments where the anime surpassed the manga.“.
  • Oh my god, it looks so ugly. The manga looks a little more natural, but what a bad perspective. I think it has to do with the fact that it's a somewhat irrelevant moment, but seriously, it looks like ham.“.
  • Reverse censorship, oh yes.“.
  • Okay, if this is canon, then someone forgot they were animating My Hero Academia and thought it was ecchi.“.
  • My Hero Academia is resorting to fan service because it doesn't have the same popularity as before“.
  • What a blessing, thanks to BONES studios for this tremendous adaptation.“.
  • And yet, Uraraka is still beating Deku.“.
  • Both media are incompatible, please remove Horikoshi from the project.“.
  • Forgive me for everything, Boku no Hero Academia“.
  • Classic Ecchi in Hero Academia“.
  • I replayed the chapter several times, to compare it with the manga, obviously.“.
  • Once again I say, Boku no Hero Academia survives because of the amount of R34 they do with the characters.“.
