This time, advance stills from the 14th episode of the 7th season (152nd episode overall), “With Shoji-kun,” as well as a 30-second trailer not yet aired on TV, have been released.
The scene shifts to a battlefield near Central Hospital. In order to recapture the villain Kurogiri, who All For One considers the “key” to the final battle, Spinner and other villains with deformed “quirks” rush into Central Hospital. Among them are ordinary people, who have been persecuted by society because of their deformed “quirks.”
In the ruins of Japan, he unleashes his long-held anger and rises up against his enemies, the villains. But then he is confronted by Tentacol, who also has a deformed Quirk and was cruelly persecuted and hurt as a child!
Because they have been hurt in the past, now it’s their turn to hurt others… Is there any meaning or future to their actions? Shoji screams with all his might! Will his voice be heard…?
-As a cast member and as a viewer, how do you feel about the story of My Hero Academia season 7 so far?
Nishida: “It’s a series of amazing episodes, so I find myself completely engrossed in the story that I forget to breathe. The animation and sound are fantastic, and I’m blown away by the power of the voice actors’ performances. I once again feel that this is a production made by a fantastic team, and I feel very happy to have been able to take part in it.”
–What were your thoughts when you read the “With Shoji-kun” episode in the original work?
Nishida: “The spotlight was on Shoji-kun and his past was also depicted, which was very interesting for me as a reader, but on the other hand, to be honest, as an actor, I was most worried. Would I be able to act in a way that would make the audience feel comfortable? This is also an episode with a message, so depending on the content of my performance, there is a possibility that I might ruin what Horikoshi-sensei intended. When I read the original work, I thought that it would be a high hurdle for me to overcome when it was made into an anime.”
-How did you feel when you went into the dubbing?
Nishida: “I just wanted to improve the quality even if just a little, so even before there were any plans to record, I would imagine things and try them out loud. I also worked out as much as I could, stayed at the recording site to experience and remember the intensity of the other members’ battles, and did everything I could to try to get to the recording. On the day of recording, with the help of the director and the staff, I was able to be lifted up to where Shoji-kun was.”
— “Together with Shouji-kun.” Please give a message to everyone who is looking forward to the upcoming broadcast of the 7th season of My Hero Academia.
Nishida: “I believe that the many production staff members have made this an episode that will reach people in a direct way. Above all, I am very happy to have been able to work together as a member of the team to create “With Shoji-kun.” I hope that viewers will take the time to watch it carefully to find out what kind of episode it will be. And, there are plenty of plus-ultra episodes coming up, so I hope to continue enjoying the seventh season with everyone.”
