Many of the cities and locations share the same or similar names of different planets from the Star Wars franchise, such as Musutafu (Mustafar), Kamino, Kiyashi Ward (Kashyyyk), Hosu City (Hoth), Tatooin Station, Jaku City, Nabu Island, and Gunga Mountain Villa. Takoba Municipal Beach Park, where Midoriya trains with All Might, is seemingly a reference to Dagobah, where Luke trains with Yoda.
This manga is Horikoshi's 3rd attempt at a successful series.
Izuku Midoriya's original character design had him with black hair (instead of his green) and red eyes (also instead of his green). This appearance is then given to his classmate, Fumikage Tokoyami.
Bakugo was originally supposed to have a friendly personality, but Horikoshi gave him a bastard-like personality instead because Horikoshi disliked his friendly version.
Animated by Studio Bones. The studio that also animated Fullmetal Alchemist and Soul Eater.
