The official Twitter for the all-new anime feature film My Hero Academia The Movie: The Two Heroes announced on Monday that the film had attracted one million viewers in Japan, and at the same time, the manga author Kohei Horikoshi posted a special illustration to celebrate the record on his Twitter account.
As reported, the first one million moviegoers of the film received a bonus book that includes a nine-page manga episode “No.0 ALL MIGHT: RISING” newly-drawn by the manga author himself. Now all of the prepared bonus books in Japanese theaters have been already handed out.
Horikoshi says on Twitter: “The film has attracted more than one million viewers! Honestly, when I first heard one million bonus books were planned to be printed, I was so afraid that it might be too many. I never thought it would be possible to surpass the number…, now I am fully relieved. Those
who have already seen the film, who are planning to see, Toho-san and Bones-san, Thank you
very much!”
