One fan, in particular, wondered what they would do with information such as this. Another fan joked about My Hero Academia series taking breaks due to Horikoshi reading Skip and Loafer and Blooming Love in his free time.Matthew Lucas@Matthew59294336@RukasuMHA @ShonenSalto Never heard of blooming love1@RukasuMHA @ShonenSalto Never heard of blooming loveStardust 🌟@_0Stardust0_@RukasuMHA @dekusbakugou What am I meant to do with this information?@RukasuMHA @dekusbakugou What am I meant to do with this information?Scorpio@Sc0rp1oo_@RukasuMHA maybe that’s why he takes so many breaks 1161@RukasuMHA maybe that’s why he takes so many breaks 😂Speaking of negative comments, there was one person who stated that nobody liked Horikoshi.

One of the highlights of a slice-of-life romance series is that it makes for a comfortable read that allows people to fondly recollect memories of their youth. Nostalgia is a massive contributing factor to adults picking up such series.The choice is also proof that the My Hero Academia mangaka enjoys something that isn't exaggerated and over-the-top. Both the manga titles that he's currently reading is slow-paced, and accurately represents young love. The inability to communicate, getting flustered over the smallest detail, and thoroughly enjoying a loved one's time account for the titles' core essence. Fans were happy to see their favorite mangaka pick up Blooming Love and Skip and Loafer.Stay tuned for more anime and manga news as 2023 progresses.
