The official Shonen Jump YouTube channel shared an hour long music video featuring Himiko Toga and Ochaco Uraraka from the My Hero Academia manga and anime series. The video is a “what if?” scenario showing both characters growing up together as childhood friends.
The video shows four scenes featuring Ochaco and Himiko spending time together. The scenes are rendered and animated in a pixel art style, accompanied by piano music, with corresponding sound effects playing in the background.
You can take a look at the My Hero Academia Ochaco Uraraka and Himiko Toga pixel art video here:
The first scene includes both characters as children playing in a park during Spring. The second scene continues into Summer and involves the characters playing with a cat and picking flowers near a shrine. The third scene changes things to show the characters grown into middle school students, taking cute pictures together at a purikura photo booth.
The final scene shows Ochaco and Himiko grown into high schoolers, spending time during winter in the park from the first scene. At certain points in the video, a memory of them as children will appear where they were playing during the same scene. In addition, snow starts falling near the end of the fourth scene.
The My Hero Academia anime series is available on Crunchyroll. Viz Media handles the localization of the manga outside of Japan.
