‘My Hero Academia’ Spoilers, Plot, Characters: Will Shinso Be Able to Transfer to Another Department?

“My Hero Academia” is churning out a lot of changes in the plot moving forward. In one of its latest attempts at spicing things up for the hero-oriented anime, creator Kohei Horikoshi is trying to weave a storyline for a fan-favorite character, Hitoshi Shinso.

During the three seasons of “My Hero Academia," Shinso has yet to be given an arc of his own. But that is about to change as the hero is attempting to transfer from General Department’s Class C to the Hero Department, Comic Book reported.

The droopy-eyed character was first introduced in the series during the “My Hero Academia” Sports Festival arc. Since then, fans have been asking showrunners to incorporate Shinso more often into the anime’s plotline and to provide some more background for the character as well.

The announcement of his transfer was made by Aizawa-sensei during the joint training practice of Class 1-A and Class 1-B. Shinso showed up with a standard Hero Training Uniform and wore a device over his mouth, which is related to the character’s brainwashing quirk or superpowers. For now, fans of “My Hero Academia” will have to wait if Shinso can successfully make the transfer, although it looks like he’s motivated in doing so.

But it’s not just motivation that makes Shinso’s transfer highly likely. Fans of the show already got the glimpse of Shinso’s capabilities when he nearly beat Izuku during a one-on-one match in the Sports Festival arc of “My Hero Academia.”

And speaking of Izuku, it seems that Uraraka is going to choose herself over her feelings for the main character and wants to pursue her dreams of becoming a Pro Hero. While this might be inconsequential to some “My Hero Academia” fans, it’s quite significant in the storyline moving forward as the show is breaking away from the standard love interest plot of the shonen genre. In most ways, Uraraka’s decision mirrors that in the real world where girls are becoming more independent, handling their feelings maturely and choosing growth over romance.
