We've talked before about fake panels and frames that fans of “My Hero Academia (My Hero Academia)” they share on social media and immediately start believing each other. That’s what happened recently, since an alleged leak of the original manga began circulating. shows Izuku Midoriya as an employee of a McDonald's-like establishment.

Izuku Midoriya is no longer a hero“, writes the information box. “Do it quickly, then you have to wash the dishes, you idiot!“A character shouts from outside the frame.”An All-Might Burger Combo 25, who is it for?“Midoriya says with a dark expression.

The leak became more reliable especially since the latest chapter showed an Izuku Midoriya with deep wounds from his battle against All For One. Furthermore, considering that he “sacrificed One For All” to emerge victorious, he will consequently end up Quirkless. It is because of the latter that fans believed in the fact that without the possibility of becoming a hero, Midoriya ended up becoming a servant.

Now, in case you hadn't noticed, there's a note at the bottom of the image that says "Art by @CPASDRYNA," which should already be a clue that the image was fake. Digging deeper into the account, we can see that he is dedicated to imitating the art of popular manga authors to create “fake leaks.” He even posted another illustration showing Midoriya throwing his hero outfit in the trash, a great reference to the scene from “Spider-Man 2”where Peter Parker gives up being the popular superhero.

And of course, there was no shortage of comments:

  • «What happened to him? I only watched up to season 3 and he was always smiling».
  • «What is the context of Deku now working at a McDonald's?».
  • «Everyone is ignoring the watermark and thinking it's real».
  • «I was scared for a moment thinking it was real».
  • «Wow, I almost had a heart attack thinking this was real.».
  • «I had to double check».
  • «And this is the hero everyone was talking about?».
  • «Deku working at McDonald's, the true essence».
  • «I can already imagine Bakugo laughing out loud, while Izuku remains impassive as he asks who ordered the burger.».
  • «All that hard work and torment to work in fast food, maybe the bandits were not right in their actions, but they were on the right track.».
  • «Damn day I became a fan of My Hero Academia».
  • «My God, how stained, at least they didn't put him as the cleaner in Cinépolis».
