Black Clover is Racing Past My Hero Academia: All Yuki Tabata Has to Do is Not Repeat Kohei Horikoshi’s Greatest Mistake

In recent times, Yuki Tabata’s Black Clover has gained unparalleled popularity that has surpassed other new-gen titles in terms of popularity. The title is arguably the best underrated Shonen series that has slowly gained mainstream popularity and now has one of the largest fanbases, rivaling the likes of Demon Slayer, Bleach, and Jujutsu Kaisen.

As a result, the manga received an anime adaptation, which multiplied its popularity, making it one of the most popular anime of the year 2020. Tabata-Sensei’s project holds the potential to cement its legacy and become one of the faces of the industry.

However, before the mangaka can establish his work as one of the greatest in the Shonen genre, he must avoid one serious mistake made by Kohei Horikoshi in My Hero Academia. The title held the potential to be the guiding light for new-gen anime, but one grave mistake ruined it all.

Yuki Tabata Must Avoid The Mistake Made By Kohei Horikoshi in His My Hero Academia

Kohei Horikoshi’s My Hero Academia’s first chapter was released a decade ago, which instantly became a fan favorite series. The manga became so popular that two years later, in 2016, it received an anime adaptation that multiplied the fame surrounding the title.

With an immersive world, gripping storyline, unique Quirks, and well-written characters all sewn neatly by the mangaka. The story revolved around Izuku Midoriya, a Quirkless boy with a pipe dream of following the path of his idol, All Might, to become the #1 Pro-Hero and the Symbol of Peace.

After gaining his idol’s Quirk, One For All, he came a step closer to his dreams. The story is a rollercoaster of emotions where both the viewers and readers would excitedly wait for the next episode and chapter respectively.

The title has been keeping the fans on their toes for a decade until the mangaka decided to conclude the series. However, a dissatisfied ending that would ruin Deku’s journey and character growth made fans fume with anger at the manga artist. Even other factors have greatly contributed to tarnishing the series’ legacy.

Yuki Tabata’s Black Clover features all the right recipes to become one of the best new-gen series and become the guiding light that MHA was meant to be. Hence, the artist has to continue with what he is doing with the title and give Asta the deserving ending that not only fulfills his dream of becoming the Magic King, but also keeps his character journey unscathed.

Nevertheless, the series has become immensely popular, as fans of both series have been praising Tabata-Sensei’s work, showcasing high expectations from Black Clover.

However, the most important part of the Shonen series is how every character present in the show, even the minor characters, is unique to the overall plot, adding to its beauty.
