My Hero Academia's Denki Credited for Unleashing Lightning in Tokyo
posted on by Jennifer Sherman
Tokyo experienced a sudden downpour on Monday, which some are attributing to My Hero Academia's Denki Kaminari. For a sense of the scope of the storm, look at the picture below that the website tenki.jp posted. The photo shows the view from the Sunshine 60 skyscraper in Ikebukuro, Tokyo.

The official Twitter of the My Hero Academia chimed in to hint that Denki was the cause of Tokyo's sudden extreme weather. The text of the tweet reads, "Caution: Lightning!!"

In the anime, Denki's Quirk lets him shoot electricity from his body. If he discharges too many volts, however, he gets a kind of short circuit in his brain and needs to recharge for a while. Hopefully Denki took a good, long rest after Monday's storm.
Various Japanese voice actors also took to Twitter to comment on the unusual weather. For example, Daiki Yamashita bought an umbrella.
