My Hero Academia season 7 has had a great run so far. The fanbase is infamous for its harsh criticisms often subjected to the animation studio for not doing justice to mangaka Horikoshi’s work. The manga author is a gifted artist, and his storytelling is equally impressive.
It’s rare to find a manga author who not only excels in illustration but also does a good job with the narrative aspects of the story. In this case, the Todoroki family drama is the topic of discussion.
Horikoshi is guilty of poor writing at certain junctures of the manga. However, the manner in which he portrayed this family’s dynamics in episode 19 is brilliant, to say the least. This has led to fans calling the series “peak fiction” based on how Studio BONES adapted what they consider one of the best-written aspects of the overarching story.

My Hero Academia season 7: Why are fans reacting to the adaptation of the Todoroki family drama?
This is a good case of a studio that has gone above and beyond with their animation efforts paired with a talented cast that nailed the voice acting. When such a combination occurs, it’s almost always an exceptional season/episode that is bound to do well. Naturally, the fanbase witnessed this, and therefore, they took to various social media platforms and forums to express their gratitude towards the entire team.
However, the overall viewing experience is further amplified if the source material is well-written. Horikoshi perfectly captured the tense dynamics between the Todoroki family members. Themes like resentment, atonement, and guilt were explored through characters like Endeavor and Toya.
When the anime-only fans experienced Horikoshi’s writing in the anime format with top-tier animation and voice acting, it resulted in a one-of-a-kind viewing experience, making them fall in love with the series all over again.
Shonen series usually don’t have complex and dark themes. However, the writer not only managed to capture the complexity of familial issues but also presented it in a way that people belonging to a wide age group could enjoy. Here’s how the fanbase reacted to the Todoroki family drama in My Hero Academia season 7.
How fans reacted to the Todoroki family drama portrayed in My Hero Academia season 7
"100 percent holy best episode of MHA to date!," said one fan.
"I completely agree. For me, the Todoroki family plot is what kept me in My Hero in the first place. The adaptation here was beyond spectacular, moving, beautiful, and this family's story from start to end was done very well," said another.
"'Is objectively Hori's best writing' honestly you could say that about anything shown from chapter 329 onwards. MHA is peak fiction," said one netizen.
It's clear that the fanbase absolutely enjoyed the latest episode of My Hero Academia season 7. The writing was beautiful, the direction perfectly captured the characters' emotions, and the animation was top-tier. Overall, this is an episode that fans will remember for years to come.
"NOBODY DOES IT LIKE HIM MANNNNN HORIKOSHI IS A BEAST AND THIS ANIME ADAPATION IS PEAK," said one fan.
"This was hard to watch but atonement is a step in the right direction for endeavor," said another.
"It's probably the arc that was the most poignant in the series," said one netizen.
Endeavor became the topic of discussion once again. He was once portrayed as a man who rarely showed emotions and had no sympathy in his heart. As My Hero Academia season 7 progressed, fans witnessed a different side of Endeavor. Fans also rightly pointed out that this was one of the most poignant arcs in the series, and exploring the familial problems was captivating in a story where action and fight scenes are a constant.
