Did you know

• The creator Horikoshi actually forgot about writing the "traitor arc" until he saw it aired in the anime.

• Many of the cities and locations share the same or similar names of different planets from the Star Wars franchise, such as Musutafu (Mustafar), Kamino, Kiyashi Ward (Kashyyyk), Hosu City (Hoth), Tatooin Station, Jaku City, Nabu Island, and Gunga Mountain Villa. Takoba Municipal Beach Park, where Midoriya trains with All Might, is seemingly a reference to Dagobah, where Luke trains with Yoda.

• This manga is Kôhei Horikoshi's 3rd attempt at a successful series. The first was Oumagadoki Zoo from 2010 to 2011 and Barrage from May to September 2012. Before those, he also made 3 one-shots which built up the world of My Hero Academia.
