My Hero Academia\u2019s timeline is proving controversial for one reason Kohei Horikoshi\/BonesMy Hero Academia is close to ending after finishing the last arc, but fans are still split over the lack of timeskip in the story. The story of My Hero Academia is pretty linear. It starts with Deku getting One For All and enrolling in U.A. The rest of the plot follows him and his classmates as first-year students, and it\u2019s only in the epilogue that the characters are seen in their second year of high school. That means all the major incidents, including All Might\u2019s fight against All For One, the Paranormal Liberation War, and the Final War, all happen within the span of one year. This particular detail has many fans wondering whether a timeskip would\u2019ve been better for the story. Timeskips are a pretty common element in shonen series. Big franchise like One Piece, Naruto, Dragon Ball, and more recently Black Clover and Boruto, all have had a jump forward in time at one point or another. The timeskip acts as a breaking point between two parts of the story, showing the difference between the before and after of the characters. However, My Hero Academia ignores this trope, choosing for a continuous narrative instead. Whether this has benefited the story is debatable, as fans have all kinds of opinions about it. Some say that a timeskip isn\u2019t necessary but having Deku and co progress over three years would\u2019ve been more authentic. The protagonist, particularly, could\u2019ve used the time to master One For All. Given the power of the Quirk and Deku\u2019s lack of physical strength at the beginning, those three years would\u2019ve been more believable than him rapidly getting stronger over just a few months. \u201cI don\u2019t think people necessarily want a timeskip. But the fact that the entire series happens in a year is not only ridiculous, but wholly unnecessary. It\u2019s honestly my biggest problem, there could have easily been more time between events, more time to grow, and less massive powerups,\u201d commented one Reddit user. \u201cMy Hero Academia absolutely needed a timeskip,\u201d was what another had to say. But some think a timeskip would\u2019ve only hurt the story. Most series initially received backlash due to their sudden move forward in time, and it might\u2019ve been the same for My Hero Academia. According to them, showing the characters as older teenagers wouldn\u2019t have added anything to the story. One fan wrote, \u201cHonestly, I don\u2019t think the series ever needed a major timeskip and I\u2019m glad it didn\u2019t.\u201d Another pointed out, \u201cTons of school-based series and regular battle shonen in general don\u2019t have major timeskips halfway through the story.\u201d Though we\u2019re possibly not going to get a timeskip anymore, with the manga ending so near, it seems the author has paid attention to his readers\u2019 opinions. The epilogue chapters will show the main cast going around the country as second-year students. Maybe by the end, we\u2019ll get to see the crew graduating their hero academia.
