I do like it when his fighting style is elevated further by the assistance of another person. In Hero's rising, it's that to the nth degree, with all of the amazing team-ups he has with Deku, seeing the X catapult for the first time, and all of these other amazing moves. Even in the first movie in Two Hero's, there's the moment where his nitroglycerin sweat gets on another guy, and Todoroki lights him up that moment's awesome. He's able to rush in, lay down a barrage of attacks, and what not that when you see him coordinate with someone else, it's much more spectacular than what he can do on his own. For lack of a better term, Bakugo's fighting style is bombastic. It's interesting because, with Bakugo, I find the most exciting moments for me are when he works with someone else. What is your favorite fighting style of your character or any other character? I completely agree with what Justin said. All of that is based on realism that even when it's a show about people who have superpowers, it still feels like these are real people, and what they're going through is real. Like, wait a minute, how did we get here all of a sudden, the confusion of It. And then sudden growth and challenge, and all these things are so real to experience. They were friends, and then one of them excelled, and one of them didn't excel at all. Bakugo's relationship and rivalry so powerful and poignant is that it has gone through so many different waves. There are some fantastic rivalries throughout anime and not to take away from them because they all are the icons of that for a reason, but what makes Deku. If there's anything that I think sets us apart, it is the back-story and the growth from that back-story. Already we've seen how it has matured into something greater than it used to be. I think that's why it's so rewarding to see that initial hostility being worn down and replaced by trust and honesty. It makes their rivalry feel real and lived in as opposed to, say if someone came from far across the world or the universe and now I'm going to fight against you forever! It feels natural. What actually sets them apart is there's this element of humanity and childhood memories. They are similar to many of the famous rivals. Do you think that there are some rivalries that theirs is easy to compare to? That and more is uncovered in the written portion of hte interview but if you're interested in the full discussion, make sure to check it out in Literary Joe's Inner Child Podcast below! We would love to hear your thoughts in the comments!ĭeku and Bakugo have the best rivalry in anime, in my opinion. In a recent interview, the two voice actors discussed how their rivalry ranks in the world of shonen and, more specifically, what makes their rivalry unique compared to their contemporaries. Since the series began, these two characters have grown and evolved into a partnership where both help each other grow as heroes even if they may not see eye to eye, and since the series has made its way to the west, their English voice actors, Justin Briner (Deku) and Clifford Chapin (Bakugo) have some comments of their own in regards to it. The biggest and, so far, most fleshed out rivalry since Goku and Vegeta has been between the main character, Deku, and his bully turned partner, Bakugo. The first trope that comes to mind, easily, is that of the rivalry. Following a team of young heroes, the series exemplifies some of the best tropes in shonen and then takes it a step further and makes it their own. One of these more recent properties that is a fine example of that has been Kohei Horikoshi's My Hero Academia. The lessons that great shonen series teach are countless and can stick with fans for the rest of their lives. Shonen is a genre in manga that can be found in various magazines across Japan and is typically geared toward young boys and now even girls and tells stories that revolve around big fights, big heart, and unique characters that have to amass power and mental fortitude to overcome an enemy.
