after checking out some of fujimoto's one shots & lil back catalogue i figured before i continued to get back to my goal of reading MHA fully, it would be cool to do the same type of back catalogue deep dive with horikoshi. back before i was ever reading manga, horikoshi was the only mangaka i knew just bc i loved the MHA anime so much in like 2019 that i used to follow horikoshi online & shit for awhile there. the world’s a lot different now & ppl seem to shit on him a lot more than necessary these days but either way he’ll
...
always have a special spot for me since he was the OG guy i knew since back in those older days when i first got into anime in general. as far as this first one shot its not the best though lol, kinda hard to get through honestly but the backstory had flashes of cool shit. obviously its mainly cool bc it's just the early version of shigaraki, but i mainly liked the v first page before the story started though. at least where i read it, it included this intro spotlight page that had behind the scenes stuff about it being the first time horikoshi was published & how he was gonna have big things coming one day. in the little section that they allowed him to say something in, just seeing his own classic style of self-depricating input & also him celebrating his first publishing is a beautiful thing & crazy how he’s mentioning he’s still gotta finish school & shit at the time & didn’t have time to fully commit yet. just wild to see the true publishing origin of this guy knowing that he would blow up so huge one day, def the most memorable thing for me from this first intro
