But before the new arc could begin, the anime took the time to introduce another hero name that has appeared on screen. Season 6 welcomed a familiar face this week, and it belonged to shindothe hero appeared this week as part of a scouting party, and it was there that My Hero Academia revealed the hero’s real name.
As it turns out, Shindo didn’t go with the fandom’s favorite name, Quake, but rather, he’s known as Grand. Obviously, that name might seem completely random to some, but Grand comes from a pun in Japan, i.e. from Shindo it’s ‘gura gura’, so the hero just turned that text into his hero name. In Japanese, the name is pronounced similar to ‘gurando’so English users ended up with the name great.
Of course, this is just one of several hero names My Hero Academia has given us lately, as the sixth season went all-out a few episodes ago when it revealed Bakugo’s chosen nickname. After what midnight Rejecting his first name long ago, Bakugo shared his true hero name with Best Jeanist during the battle.
