Shradow Posted May 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2016 Gonna be honest, forgot that Deku got so embarrassed around Uraraka in the beginning. They're just friends. Also, you feel she's a klutzy air-head? Not sure where you're getting that from. I think you'll probably like her later in the series, though. A large number of the cast get their fair share of fleshing out/development throughout the series. I can't say the series isn't generic, though. It definitely is, but it just executes the tropes of a shounen series really well, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Progenitor Posted May 13, 2016 Report Share Posted May 13, 2016 That's what I love about this show. From reading the manga, I can personally assure you that what this tries to do is take those standard copy-paste Shounen stereotypes and actually flesh them out like they should have been in the first place. Every character is flawed, but the creators don't simply try to compensate for the flaws of their characters or ignore them. Rather, every character will grow and develope over the course of it all. The flaws were not just something that arose when the characters were drafted. They were intentionally written in so that the characters had room to grow just like the protagonist. That's exactly what you do when writing a story. Anyone can have good traits, but flaws of a character are what bring them down to the reader's level. They become more relatbale when you see them try to deal with these flaws, and it's interesting to see them overcome those flaws as the series progresses. That's the secret to interesting characters, and it's something the manga handles brilliantly. Episode 7 is going to be the first example of this. I won't say much more than that for obvious spoiler reasons, but just know that everything you may find annoying with the series has been placed there on purpose at this early stage of the plot. Unfortunately you may have to wait until season 2 to see Ochako grow, assuming season 1 really does end where we theorize it will get to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted May 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2016 Bakugou's VA is freaking awesome, on point this episode. EDIT: So there's a new little PV introducing the guy you see in the OP, just wanted to share because I'm super excited to hear the full song this thing is teasing, it sounds really cool. Really like the VA, too, heard him before as Tsukishima in Haikyuu!! and Raku in Nisekoi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted June 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 We finally are getting into the meat and bones of USJ, been waiting for this episode especially. Best girl Tsuyu being best girl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Chaos Sonic Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 [spoiler=Ep. 10 Thoughts]That whole episode...was awesome!! Deku's heroics/intelligence along with his abilities are amazing... And inspiring the other two like that as well is a definitely a plus. [spoiler=Also...]Omg...he is adorable xD HOW IS HE THE PRINCIPLE? XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted June 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 Mineta was way funnier seeing him animated vs the manga. His VA is on point, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fusion X. Denver Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 [spoiler=Episode 10]Mineta's still a little sheet, but the anime made him funny to watch so that's good. Looking forward to the rest of the season with all the different fights. Also, the opening grew on me fast. Can't stop jamming out to it now.

Shradow Posted June 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 I don't know if anyone here happens to be caught up on the manga, but... [spoiler=Chapter 94, do not funking open this if you haven't read all the manga.]Holy sheet what a heavy chapter. All For One is down, and now All Might's finally used up the last of One For All as well. UNITED STATES OF SMASH was awesome. I'm really glad All Might lived, though, I was so afraid he'd die by the end of this battle. And I was wondering how All For One was able to see with his messed up face, glad we got an explanation as he was being carted off to his cell. Nice little appearance from Stain, as well. The arc is over and it was a damn good one. I can't wait to see where Deku and Shigaraki will go from here. If there's anything even more interesting than seeing the hero develop, it's seeing the villain develop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Chaos Sonic Posted June 12, 2016 Report Share Posted June 12, 2016 [spoiler=Episode 11]Well...out of the frying pan and into the fryer... I can tell that Episode 12 is going to be even more action packed now. Also...guy with all them hands...still gives me the absolute creeps...

Shradow Posted June 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2016 Aw, but he's such a bro. [spoiler=Episode 11]Really happy with this episode, I was especially waiting for this funny bit to get adapted:Keep it up, Mineta. They captured All Might's anger at the end of the episode perfectly, and the fight between Shigaraki, Noumu, and Aizawa was really well done, too, it was really savage. Seeing all the other students' powers animated was nice too, especially Momo's. Her power might be my favorite in the series. It's really awesome how she's smart enough to understand the molecular makeup of the objects she makes, and since they come from her body we now know why her outfit is so revealing. Can't be tearing up clothes willy nilly unless she can't avoid it like with the large sheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darj Posted June 20, 2016 Report Share Posted June 20, 2016 I want to say I find interesting how things are turning up in the anime. And maybe it's just me, but I can see how they are sort of deconstructing, or at least spicing up, the cliched/generic character tropes.Always nice to see more of Tsuyu, although can't wait to see her displaying her abilities to a bigger extent.

Shradow Posted June 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2016 Not to say this arc is boring or anything but things definitely get better from here in the future arcs (the one that just finished in the manga is by far the best), I can't wait for more to get adapted.

Shradow Posted June 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2016 S2 confirmed, cool beans. [spoiler=Chapter 96]Seeing the sort of repercussions coming off the end of the last arc, now. It was cool to see abunch of the parents and how they react to things, but with how Deku's mom is, I'm thinking it might be time for Deku to reveal his and All Might's secret to her. And Bakugou's mom is freaking great. But on the flip side, goodness, this part was really depressing.I gotta give props to manga that make me feel really emotional, and my heart breaks a little bit each time I see this. She's the first person we've seen actually with their Quirk taken by All For One. I imagine most people don't survive long enough (or they get bio-engineered into Noumos or something) after having their Quirk taken away, but she has to live with her loss, unless they get All For One to give it back to her.

Super Chaos Sonic Posted June 23, 2016 Report Share Posted June 23, 2016 S2 confirmed, cool beans. Yes! Though I'm fairly certain a 2nd season would've been made even without the announcement/confirmation. It's just good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fusion X. Denver Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 I want My Hero to establish a trend where anime adapting longer series does one arc per cour. That'd be ideal pacing and it'd give the manga frequent breaks to get further ahead. After seeing this first season and how great it was, I'm convinced this would be the best approach going forward.Also, the All Might action was absolutely glorious.

Shradow Posted June 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2016 Last episode was good sheet. We're finished up for this season. I can't wait for the next season, the following arc is much better than the beginning and USJ. But gosh, I can never get over how Deku's broken noodle limbs are when animated. Feels much worse than reading it in the manga. [spoiler=]A shame we didn't get the last page adapted. Since S2 is confirmed it would've been a nice tease. But we did get a glimpse of Stain, so that's cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Chaos Sonic Posted June 26, 2016 Report Share Posted June 26, 2016 And now season 1 is over... *sniff sniff sob* This means I have to wait until they release season 2 for more!! T~T Regardless, this episode left me pretty much with more questions than answers on more things. I know there's a manga and I might pick it up now that season one is over, just so I get feel for whats to come season 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted June 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2016 To anyone who does pick up the manga, start reading at the last few pages of chapter 21. I'm gonna be rereading it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shradow Posted June 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2016 Oh god now that I'm rereading the manga, I'm constantly reminded that Bakugou is so funking great. He starts off in the series being so purposely unlikable. EDIT: The second season will most likely cover the very end of chapter 21 up through chapter 57.
