A new visual of Kaina Tsutsumi, also known as Lady Nagant from My Hero Academia, was released on the day of her birthday.
On the social media website X (formerly Twitter), the official My Hero Academia account uploaded an updated visual of the integral antagonist from Season 6 of the anime. Similar to the updated anime visuals of Tomura Shigaraki, Dabi and Himiko Toga, the new image of Lady Nagant will be used for future merchandise and marketing. The brand-new anime visual of Lady Nagant coincides with the character's birthday on Oct. 10.
In Season 6 of My Hero Academia, Lady Nagant was ordered to capture Izuku "Deku" Midoriya for All For One. Despite her intimidating aura and allegiance to All For One, Lady Nagant isn't a supervillain. She previously worked under the Hero Safety Commission until their demands to kill innocent civilians deemed "radical" were too much for her to bear. Lady Nagant's assignation role plays into her gun-related Quirks born from her body.
Despite her intent on defeating Deku, Lady Nagant was eventually won over by his heroic and selfless attitude. Although the anime left off with Lady Nagant being betrayed by All For One, the manga has her back in action after surviving the self-destruction caused by the mysterious evildoer. Although the My Hero Academia manga isn't over yet, the series is inching closer to its highly-anticipated finale.
In the meantime, a new promotional poster for My Hero Academia Season 7 was released. The new anime poster from Shonen Jump highlights several of the teenage heroes from Class 1-A. Crunchyroll will also debut a special episode of My Hero Academia at its New York Comic Con panel on Oct 13. A new My Hero Academia anime movie is expected to be released in 2024.
Lastly, a free-to-play battle royale game called My Hero Ultra Rumble was recently released on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch and PC. The anime game is reminiscent of live-service games like Fortnite, Apex Legends and Rumbleverse. There are currently 18 playable characters in the game, ranging from heroes like Deku to villains such as Himiko.
My Hero Academia is currently available to stream on Crunchyroll and Hulu.
