My Hero Academia: The Bizarre Reason Horikoshi Changed Bakugo’s Name
Katsuki Bakugo from *My Hero Academia* is a fan favorite, despite – or perhaps because of – his rough edges. He’s known for being rude, rebellious, and a bit unpredictable, which keeps viewers engaged. Author Kohei Horikoshi always intended to include Bakugo, featuring him from the very beginning of the series, but he did make a significant change to the character before *My Hero Academia* was first published in Shonen Jump magazine.
