Hi there it's actually my first time writing a review. *I NEVER PLANNED TO WRITE ANY, BUT THIS IS A TRUE EXCEPTION*
If you are a fan of this, it would be in your best interests not to continue reading.
Anyways bear with me. A sentence to summarize this whole show? "the most overrated cliche shounen anime with ripped off ideas from a marvel movie forcefully jammed together with childish ideals"
The story.
I can go on and on about this it was absolutely dreadful and the most cringiest setting I have encountered.
A bland boy suddenly gets superpowers from a hero and starts training and fights for eons.
...
Amazing. It's repetitive like the filler stories of Naruto except it's all squeezed into a season.
The art.
Not bad really, colors were well done.
Sound
yeah classic booms and other normal sound effects. The theme songs were nice.
Character
Characters are well dictionary definitions. Please. There's a difference between exaggerated to definition characters. The main character is a textbook example of a one dimensional character with no background other than he was born without powers. "I wanna be a hero!" says he but all he ever does is write diary entries about current superheroes and does nothing to even train for it. He gets bullied and never fights back. As a survival instinct you usually defend yourself to avoid damage and things get cringey. His academic skills aren't special too. Normal. Normal. Normal. Wait, to be fair underdog is a realistic opinion.
His childhood friend would then be the definition of emo. He hates poor "does nothing but daydream" kun and bullies him. I can understand, all he ever did when I watched the episodes was talk about his dreams but still, way too violent.
Others are poor representations of emotions and ideals like the movie inside out (inside out was good).
Enjoyment: No. Shounen for kids? Yes. Adults? Unless you really like this stuff no. No. No.
Overall: Just please no. It's an overrated anime that should be called more of a cartoon. I've heard some say this is better than SAO and I really must protest. Yes I acknowledge the issues like story skipping and such in SAO, but BNHA also has its issues with the whole classroom dynamic focusing on so many characters they start to become less important as the anime progresses, etc. I accept that no anime is going to be a perfect 10/10 for everyone and agree with the constructive criticism for such situations. BUT this is the most overrated, I repeat, overrated anime (ahem cartoon) I have ever seen.
PS: looking back, I still feel the same way but would like to point out, as one user said, "I'm not going to dislike someone because they liked something I didn't." I hope you feel the same way that this user did. I'm not going to go around trying to argue my opinion on this show in front of avid fans. And yes, I am an SAO fanboy and I feel not-so-smart bringing up SAO on a totally different show.
