My Hero Academia: One For All\u2019s history was secretly inspired by one of the best sci-fi movies ever CrunchyrollMy Hero Academia creator Kohei Horikoshi recently revealed how a classic from James Cameron inspired a big decision regarding One For All\u2019s history. After completing a decade of serialization, My Hero Academia has another big milestone this summer. The franchise\u2019s fourth movie \u2013 My Hero Academia: You\u2019re Next \u2013 is all set to premiere on August 2 in Japan. With such a huge occasion on the horizon, Horikoshi sat down with Viz to talk about the manga\u2019s global popularity. He also revealed which stories he didn\u2019t include in the manga and why. Speaking about any plotline he regrets not exploring, the author shared he has complete backstories of every One For All user. However, he intentionally left them off the main story. When asked if he plans to draw them at some point in the future, he answered, \u201cNo, not at all. Rather than drawing out all the well-thought-out backgrounds and episodes, I wanted to hint at those elements instead.\u201d Horikoshi also mentioned how Terminator 2: Judgment Day, one of the best sci-fi movies of all time, inspired him not to give away everything to readers and let them come up with their own versions. \u201cFor instance, in Terminator 2, John Connor becomes a leader in the future, and Schwarzenegger\u2019s character is sent from that future world,\u201d he continued. \u201cBut there aren\u2019t many depictions of the future itself. \u201cBecause the future isn\u2019t depicted in detail, the viewers\u2019 imaginations expand, and I thought that was really great. So, I wanted to create something like Terminator 2.\u201d It\u2019s an interesting decision from the author to not reveal the previous One For All users\u2019 backstories. We got a glimpse at Nana Shimura\u2019s past a little as well as Yoichi\u2019s and how the transferable Quirk came to be in the first place. We also know Kudo saved Yoichi from All For One before receiving the Quirk. He later passed it on to his prot\u00e9g\u00e9 Bruce. However, aside from these, we have no clue how any of their hero lives were or how they each stumbled upon One For All. But, as Horikoshi said, that may not be a bad thing as it allowed us to come up with our own theories. The past users are all very interesting characters, so making head-canons about them isn\u2019t too difficult for the fandom. Aside from the release of My Hero Academia: You\u2019re Next, the franchise has another big event coming up that week. After ten years of journey, the manga will finally end on August 5, 2024, with Chapter 430. Until then, check out our speculation on the upcoming My Hero Academia Chapter 429.
