As the world tries to return to normal slowly, there are always lessons to be taught and ways to be reminded that being careful is still the most crucial way to stay safe. As the COVID-19 outbreak has spread across the world, multiple entertainment companies have begun to try and resume fillings and rehearsals of various projects.
One such project has been the stage play adaption of My Hero Academia. Just like many other live performances, the play has been forced to find many different options to have the show continue. My Hero Academia: The "Ultra" Stage: A True Hero, was the original play that was meant to be released earlier in the year.
However, as the pandemic began to spread, the play was forced to cancel its multiple performances, without an official return date set. That being said, the production committee wanted to return with a bang and decided to create My Hero Academia: The "Ultra" Stage: A True Hero PLUS ULTRA ver, which has been considered the complete play and will feature more powerful villains and appearances by Dabi, Twice and Himiko Toga.
As the play was gearing towards its premiere, two of the production members ended up testing positive for COVID-19. Reassuring that they were not in close vicinity of anyone, the production committee has decided that it would be best to have the play live but without an in-person audience, especially as this discovery has made rehearsals very difficult. For now, make sure to share your thoughts on the news in the comments below!
