Fortnite has crossed over with anime several times now. Not only has Epic Games made their own anime-style skins like Erisa and others, they've officially collaborated with some of the most popular anime in the world.

Naruto's addition to Fortnite must have been what opened the floodgates. This is believed to be true since many anime collaborations have taken place since Naruto, Sasuke, and friends were added to the game. The collaboration with Dragonball Z was one of the biggest crossovers in the battle royale title's history.

Now, My Hero Academia is having its time in the spotlight. It was added to the game during Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 1.

Like the Naruto and Dragonball before it, the latest collaboration has come with weapons, in-game changes, and more alongside the collection of cosmetics.

It was an all-encompassing collaboration, but one Redditor took it a step further and made their own stunning manga featuring Deku and The Ageless One, two iconic characters from the anime. Check out the stunning result below.

The My Hero Academia collaboration has been a massive success. The skins have become very popular and are some of the most used characters in Chapter 4 Season 1.

The in-game items have been a hit, too. Most players love using them to lay waste to their opponents.

One Fortnite player loves the collaboration so much that they created their own manga with My Hero Academia and the game.

The short manga is about six pages, which obviously took quite a bit of work to pull off. Every page has breathtaking detail and it puts The Ageless One and MHA together in perfect fashion.

The plot involves The Ageless One fighting Deku over what is ironically and prematurely called a "toy," which was an All Might (another MHA character) action figure. To win it, the two engage in a duel.

Much of the few pages the manga features are filled with drawings. The art is incredible and it perfectly details the conflict between these two supremely powerful creatures. The two fight back and forth and trade quips along the way, showcasing the artist's clever wit.

This is not an uncommon thing for the game, though this manga is in no way official. Epic Games has released official crossover comics many times, though.

They've crossed over with Marvel for the Zero War comics storyline and with DC in a similar fashion. The developer used these as ways to further the game's storyline. While this MHA crossover comic isn't official, it could certainly pass as an a AAA creation.


Reactions to the incredible My Hero Academia x Fortnite fan-made manga

Many found the use of the chosen weapon rather ironic.

A few players believe this artist needs to work with Epic Games as their drawings rival Fortnite comics and other artwork.

Others laughed at the ironic juxtaposition.

Several players, one who doesn't have much to do with manga, know this is high quality work and that its ironic.

The community seems to love this collaboration and appreciate the work put in by the Fortnite Redditor who shared their art. They've given it well over one thousand upvotes in 10 days at the time of writing.
