It's back and honestly, that OP song is still very MHA style, which fits for this show. A lot of characters featured as usual.

Looks like Hawk's group has gathered important info against the villains. Episode had some recap clips so I guess it was a way to reflect events from the previous season. Seeing Voice, Eraser Head, and Endeavor got me hyped and I'm crossing fingers for at least a decent season.

It’s fall 2022 and we finally arrived at the inevitable, the yearly installment to this series which people would never lose faith in cuz “it’ll get better this time around”, My Hero Academia everyone. Well being a source reader, atleast I can confirm there’s some truth in it.

Paranormal Liberation front or whatever they call it, it’s straight up business against them right from the first minute. After the buildup we went through in last season, it’s no surprise heroes are on a frontal assault for once, courtesy of Hawks acting as a double agent and setting things up for the raid. Visuals looking fine for now, though it’s just the first episode itself so no point in getting any hopes up. Also please beat the hell out of Doctor dracula, it’s long overdue at this point.

Opening sounding just the way every other past opening had, same for ending. So yeah the usual here.

HeroAca has finally reached Season 6, supposedly the best arc of the manga (Paranormal Liberation War arc) with the heroes vs. the Paranormal Liberation Front.

The OST seems OK for this season, at least for the 1st half, just like all other HeroAca seasons prior.

The total breakdown of the regiment groups within the Paranormal Liberation Front as Hawks had surmised with Twice's information and still keeping his intentions secret, and all Heroes engage to do 2 things: the subjugation of Kyudai Garaki, the mad scientist, progenitor of the Nomus and simultaneously All For One's right-hand man. The other being to start their offense against Shigaraki and his army of villains on all flanks under Endeavor and Edge Shot.

Kyudai was caught unawares by Endeavor's group raiding Jaku Hospital, and he at least has a backup plan to induce Quirks from All For One's regeneration and Twice's Double duplication to activate all the Nomus hiding beneath while continuing his efforts to cultivate the best of Shigaraki. Only except that the Pro Heroes managed to reach before he could progress.

The all-out war has begun, and it's all action going forward.

Yuki Hayashi Directing opening song for s6 was such a bless and haruka lida debut for directing ending song another fabulous thing for this season 6.

Norimitsu suzuki animating action scene of Mirko slashing every nomu was bombastic.
Today mha episode was such a treat I don’t have much more words to say .

Damn, this is a pretty good start! Little time to dive right into the action, that's just what I want from this show.

Best arc being adapted here? I really hope the adaption will live up to that standard, although I feel like the arcs covered in S2 and the first half of S3 will be difficult to top but here we go. Next episode focusing on Mirko-san should be fun if her small stints in this episode are anything to go by.

Endeavor's trust in Hawk is nice to see, I loved that little "Let's go, Hawks!" scene out of the conference building. Looks like the heroes are starting to get a hold of some of the traitors too, that'll definitely help for the future too.

Our main characters have been assigned with evacuation roles and the sort for now, but we know things will get dicey at some point, so I'm looking forward to seeing how that'll go.

Op & ED are pretty nice. Visuals of the Op containing the Jojo-like word bubbles (can't recall what they're called xD) was an interesting addition and it's a pleasure to hear Akiyama Kiro-san as always.

I was pleasantly surprised. Last season left a slightly bitter taste in my mouth.

I wanna start off talking about the new OP and ED. They're ight. The ED is really basic visually, but it's not terrible or anything. The OP has a really interesting comic-booky style, with sharp edges, high contrast shading and some pretty good sakuga shots. I gotta say visually it's a lot more interesting than last season's OPs. Songwise I think both the ED and the OP are kinda mid tbh. They're both really not that memorable, and kinda plain, but it's ok.

Now the episode itself I really liked, might just be the best first episode of any of the seasons. I haven't read the manga but I know quite a lot of spoilers, but I don't really know the order of certain events or most of what really happens, but so far it looks pretty hype. Looks like we will have an action-packed season. The writing seems pretty solid. I can see why manga readers love this arc, and we've just begun it.

Now, let's speak technically:the art and animation.
I loved it! I see they are bringing back the more dynamic lineart of previous seasons and there were quite a few really well-drawn shots. As for the animation it was mostly not anything amazing, except for that incredible Miruko vs Nomus shot, glorious sakuga, but other than that it was mostly just solid.

I gotta say we started off good.

Okay... heroes vs villains raid kind of arc now and so far it seems better than the previous season especially when it comes to fighting scenes like the whole Mirko hospital part looked good, but it's still only the first episode so we'll see if the other ones will keep this quality

This is certainly the best first episode of any MHA season. Although, that isn't really saying much since they have always been filler.

It was definitely a perfect adaptation of the chapters covered. It sets up the impending battle up quite well, and it also gets into the action nice and quickly.

Can't say much about the animation and direction which seems great so far. That said, the first half-dozen MHA episodes in every season are always a treat for the eyes, we will have to wait and pray that the quality stays consistent.

Past seasons have always prioritised the whimsical and jovial side of MHA, especially the School aspect. Often trying to lose the grit that made some of the few dark moments great in the source material (I'm looking at you My Villain Academia). So I hope BONES doesn't try to soften some of the source material's grittiness especially in an arc which acts as a tonal turning point where the series can't exactly turn back to it's whimsical roots.

The mid episode title screens seem more dynamic. The episode title cards are unexpectedly foreboding. The next episode teaser has an appropriately foreboding tone and OST. The OP has far more passion and style inserted into it than any MHA OP in the last two seasons (Starmaker might be an exception). The ED is probably the best MHA ending so far, feeling tonally appropriate to the events which are about to take place while also looking quite well directed.

All these aspects gives me hope that BONES will give this arc the adaptation it deserves. If there was any time for My Hero Academia to rise itself out of being the punching bag of the anime community it would be this season.

See how much better it is when you start the season right off the bat with the action, Bones? Thank god they didn't do another pointless bs filler for the premiere, literally just for that they're already off to a good start. I guess they understand how much anticipation this arc has had amongst the fandom so yea, please don't fuck it up like you did MVA.

We jump right into the action and things are looking good so far. As someone above already said, this episode by itself was better than all of that atrocious and abysmal 5th season (low bar there though, lol). And yes animators, please keep showing love to our favorite thick thighs bunny waifu ๐Ÿ˜ฉ they know what the people want.

OP and ED are aight, the OP visuals are really cool ngl, but I'm not sold on the song. I do, however, really fuck with the new designs for the mid-episode eyecatchers, along with the more ominous nature of the episode title card and next episode preview. Very good first impression, and it should only get better from here (key word: should).

The first episode sets the tone of this season pretty clear that "we mean business", no playing around anymore. But as a fan of the slice-of-life side of the MHA, the atmosphere is too heavy for me (I giggle a little bit at hospital evacuation scene, those patients are so excited to meet their favorite heroes). Well, at least Endeavor is as hot as ever.

The evil doctor totally looks like the doctor who told Deku he doesn't have a quirk as a kid lol. I'm surprised I haven't thought of this before.

I'm glad it's finally out. Was also glad it went straight to the first episode instead of a recap or filler. First episode was okay but not enough to hype me up but I sure have my hopes up for this season and hoping it will not disappoint me in the end. I really missed MHA.
