SHY is a brand-new superhero anime airing on Crunchyroll, and it's already avoiding a big problem with its major contemporary, My Hero Academia.
Warning: Contains spoilers for Shy episode #1.Crunchyroll’s new superhero anime SHY has only just started, but it already works to fix one of My Hero Academia’s biggest problems. SHY is set in a world where superheroes from across the world came together to prevent a Third World War, and ever since then, an era of peace has been established.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT SHY has an interesting premise for a superhero story, and one thing to take away from it is that it fixes one of the biggest problems with My Hero Academia. With SHY and My Hero Academia both revolving around superheroes, there’s naturally a lot of overlap between their ideas and overall themes, even if the execution isn’t necessarily the same.
With how quickly SHY establishes that its story will progress on an international level, it allows itself to tell a much bigger tale than My Hero Academia. As big as the stakes get in My Hero Academia, having everything be limited to Japan often ends up making things feel weirdly small, but with SHY taking an international approach from the start, it’ll be easier to convey how big its central conflict will be.
As for why SHY can so easily focus on things outside of Japan, that simply comes down to its presentation. SHY appears to be styled as a more traditional superhero story with things like secret identities and superheroes being uncommon. Heroes taking on global threats are very common in those types of stories, so in that regard, it makes sense for there to be a focus on international characters and conflicts.
