This beloved cover art showcases the two monumental characters of Horikoshi’s series,Izuku Midoriya and Shigaraki. The hero of this series and the main antagonist are on the same cover. The art for this cover serves to mirror Midoriya and Shigaraki, and everything from the art to the colors is incredible.
One common complaint fans have with this volume art, which includes other more recent volume covers, is Horikoshi’s background choice. Indeed, Horikoshi chose a white background for a lot of his final volumes, with some exceptions, like volume 37. This might seem a bit flat for some fans, but nevertheless, it doesn’t take away much from the amazing cover.
