Kohei Horikoshi's My Hero Academia follows Izuku Midoriya, a boy with no quirk, who inherited the all-powerful One For All quirk from the greatest hero, All Might. Since then, he has been training to hone the quirk, all while indulging in a long-fought battle against the villains and their leader, All For One.


My Hero Academia goes on a sudden break as chapter 390 gets delayed till June

With the release of Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump #26 in Japan, the magazine revealed that Kohei Horikoshi's My Hero Academia manga will be on a sudden break this week ahead of its chapter 390 due to production reasons.

The same was revealed by a notice released by Weekly Shonen Jump's editorial team. As per the notice, there were some corrections that were to be made to draft before it got publicised.

Unfortunately, the corrections could not be made in time before the printing was done. Hence, the manga had to go on a sudden break this week and will resume as scheduled in Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump #27. Following that, My Hero Academia chapter 390 will be made available to readers worldwide on Monday, June 5, 2023.


How fans reacted to the manga's sudden break

Similar to any situation when a manga takes a sudden break, fans were concerned about the manga creator's health as they believed that Kohei Horikoshi was having a tough time dealing with his schedule. They stated how the mangaka needed a long break of about two to three months.

While the notice did reveal that the break was due to production reasons, fans believed that his health was of some concern as such sudden breaks have almost become a regular occurrence.

Nevertheless, not all fans were supportive of the manga creator's sudden breaks. While they care about Horikoshi's health, they would prefer the manga to go on a one-month break and resume later. However, evidently, the manga creator refuses to take a long break and keeps surprising his fans with sudden breaks in every other month.

Moreover, the reason behind the breaks are stated to be production reasons, however, fans how now begun to have suspicions about it. As for other fans, they prefer My Hero Academia to be on break due to production reasons than Horikoshi's health as this just proves how much the manga creator is dedicated to the series.
