Every instinct screamed at him to run.

The man raised his other hand, claws gleaming, poised to strike—

BOOM!

A fiery explosion slammed into the masked man, sending him flying backward and releasing Izuku, who collapsed to the ground, coughing violently.

"Hey, dipshit," a harsh, gravelly voice barked from the shadows. A member of the pro hero team Wild Wild Pussycats, Yawara Chatora is a trans male character who, before the series’ beginning, took a trip to Thailand to transition physically.

For now at least.

To those looking to find out a bit more about the characters already established as queer: welcome, you’ve come to the right place.

Yawara Chatora, aka Tiger

Tiger may not get enough screen time in My Hero Academia, but he sure makes good use of the time he does have.

This is most noticeable through her feelings for Izuku Midoriya and Ochaco Uraraka, showing that ultimately, gender doesn’t matter nearly as much to Himiko as blood type does.

Kenji Hikiishi, aka Magne

Much like Himiko, Magne is an antagonist affiliated with the League of Villains. In the early stages of My Hero Academia, when prototype sketches of the characters were still being created, the idea of Himiko Toga being queer was already floating around Horikoshi’s head.

"You picked the wrong night to piss me off."

OR: Izuku was living his life on earth but one fated night after his 18th birthday, a masked man appeared and killed his grandfather and two magical students came calling themselves as half-bloods went to save him.

It's a story of how Izuku discovered his magical destiny in UA Arcanum.

“I—I was on my way to school...

In volume 19 of the manga, some of the author’s notes and sketches of this antagonist’s early concept and design were included as a bonus page, and in it, it states that she is bisexual or pansexual. Although Tiger’s experiences with gender are not apparent in the series, his trans identity and backstory have been confirmed in volume 19 of the manga.

Himiko Toga

Himiko Toga is a member of the League of Villains and one of the most compelling antagonists in the series.

The masked man turned to him, stepping forward with leisurely cruelty.

"Ohh, what do we have here?" His voice was like gravel scraping glass. ALL MIGHT SAVES MIDDLE SCHOOLERS FROM SLUDGE VILLAIN!!

Followed by an action shot of him, older, beefier, taller—but still undeniably him.

She is a trans woman who has not transitioned, but it’s unclear whether this comes down to a lack of resources to do so, or a decision. Unlike Tiger, Magne’s trans identity is briefly touched upon in My Hero Academia, as we see her meet with and talk to a friend with shared experiences, which alludes to her identity being tied to her need for freedom, and a driving force behind her association with the League of Villains.

Clearly, this character trait made it onto the series, as Himiko is repeatedly shown to be able to fall in love with boys and girls alike.

All the canonically LGBTQ+ characters in ‘My Hero Academia’

In the last several years, My Hero Academia grew to become one of the most popular battle shonen in the world.

With the mangaka wanting wrap up the series’ final arc, there might not be many chances to further explore queer themes, but who knows? There was this little girl she was crying and hurt and scared so I—I detoured I wanted to help,” he can barely speak through the choking, cloying despair clogging his throat as he stares helplessly at the newspaper, the date etched cleanly on the top right corner, the headline reading:

BLOWN AWAY!!

As most manga and anime aficionados know, this genre is not typically the one you go to for good LGBTQ+ representation. Despite his outward appearance now being in line with his masculine identity, Tiger is clearly unafraid to defy gender roles, wearing a similar version of his teammates’ hero costumes, which include cropped tops and ruffled skirts.

Look, I won’t sit here and pretend that Kohei Horikoshi deserves a pat on the back for including three queer characters in his series, two of them being minor, but it’s something.
Granted, there are a few more characters in My Hero Academia that fans speculate may be part of the LGBTQ+ community — Nejire and Yuyu are some examples that come to mind — but without confirmation from the author or textual evidence to back it up, those can’t be considered canonically queer.

Launched into our universe, 14 year-old Toshinori Yagi has to figure out how to restructure his whole future now that he’s 30 years in the future of a universe exactly like his.
Who knows what he’ll become now that he can no longer be who he dreamed of?

.
In the League, Magne found a group of people who accepted, respected her, and were willing to assert her identity in the face of transphobia when she wasn’t present to do so herself.
All in all, like most shonen manga and anime, My Hero Academia still has a long way to go in terms of LGBTQ+ representation, but Horikoshi’s efforts are nonetheless appreciated.
