What is a Big Bang?
A Big Bang is an event that pairs artists and writers together to create content for a series, ship, or theme. While there are different types of Big Bangs, the Kacchako Big Bang is an 18+ moderated event intended to portray a romantic relationship between Uraraka Ochako and Bakugou Katsuki from Boku No Hero Academia by Horikoshi Kohei.This is intended to be a fun, collaborative event to celebrate our beloved Kacchako. There is no previous bang experience required, and the event is open to Kacchako enthusiasts—if you've ever thought about dipping your toes into creating for fandom, this is an amazing and safe space to learn!Due to time constraints, the 2026 Kacchako Big Bang will be reformatted as a Mini Bang with smaller word counts and minimal art requirements.
