A Twitter post accumulated over 18,000 comments after it pointed out that some Hero Academia characters share the same birthday as fascist figures from the past, a highly inexcusable (and immensely trifling) detail that naturally spawned further outrage

Bakugou shares the birthday of Adolf Hitler, Endeavor with Doihara Kenji (a general in the Imperial Japanese Army during World War II), Shigaraki with Yamamoto Isoroku (Marshal Admiral of the Imperial Japanese Navy and the Combined Fleet’s commander-in-chief throughout World War II), and Midoriya shares a birthday with the founding day of the Japanese Communist Party
