That was an Amazing Episode alot of great buildup, All Might is hilarous in his regular form, I seriously thought Katsuki was gonna thank Deku at the end but I guess it'd be out of chracter this early in the show

I am so happy they're adapting this properly. Thank god, they're doing this manga justice!

This episode felt a lot better than the first one, so now I'm hyped to see how the rest is handled. Although, in the end I'm always left with the sad fact that this is only a 13 episode anime... for now.

So bones is taking this slow, wonder if they are thinking of anime original content? Probably USJ arc would have been the best stopping point, but now I dunno.
Anyway this was done better than the manga. I can assure anime only ones that the series gets only better.

I assume it was only for the first chapter. The preview shows chapter 3 of the manga, so I'm assuming we'll still end on the USJ arc.

It will definitely include all chapters of the USJ arc, the opening shows scenes from chapter 19, USJ arc ends in chapter 21, I doubt they won't adapt these last two chapters

True but they could always go the toei path and just keep it extremely slow paced with a longer episode count.
Bones aren't as privelaged or rich enough to do that like Toei or Pierrot which is why I never expected this to be more than one cour for now

this episode was just...fantastic! I loved it! I was on my toes when Midoriya ran towards the monster, because that particular scene had nice buildup and was even a little funny when he tried to save Kacchan haha. I am really liking this anime so far and I really hope there's a second season!

The feels were real this episode, Deku is so precious ;-;

People need to stop being so judgmental about Izuku being emotional, he just got told by his idol and number 1 hero, that he could be a hero (his life goal) even though he's been told his entire life he couldn't do it. Give the boy some slack.

They're adapting this perfectly, it's beautiful. And I personally think the end of the USJ arc is a good place to end it, the arc afterwards is too long and connected to be able to end part way through.

This episode was amazing. The build-up in the first half this episode really paid off in the second half. I really liked seeing the other heroes using the quirks to their own advantages in the situation and working together. The scene where Deku ran out without thinking to try and save Katsuki was so freaking HYPE! The OST made it even more hype-inducing, it was fantastic! After seeing Deku's act, All Might came in to save the day.

It was nice to see Katsuki indirectly thank Deku even though he was telling Deku he didn't need help. All Might's reversion back to his skinny form and the blood gag is pretty funny. The scene where All Might thanked Deku and told him that he'a also a hero was so freaking emotional and touching. Not gonna lie, I got slightly teary-eyed; it hit me right in the feels. Deku is such a respectable MC and All Might really helped Deku gain his courage and confidence back. Time to become an awesome Hero, let's go! Can't wait for the next episode.

When you're currently reading the manga
and yet you're still hype about the anime



Toho is doing great so far especially
adding correct BGM in order to emphasize
some scenes



It's a bummer though knowing there are only
13 episodes and I can pretty much guess up until
which chapter is going to be adopted

With the pace it's going at, I'm guessing 40-ish pages will be adapted for every episode or something, so around 2 chapters, 3 tops if there are battles I guess. With that pace and how the OP spoils things, the first season should end right before the Sports Festival so, right before ch22-23. Looking forward to more episodes, the animations should be pretty solid then.
With 86 chapters and counting for the manga, I think we'll definitely get a second season that might only focus on the sports festival (ch23 to 44).
Maybe we'll get two seasons a year until the anime catches up to the manga.

"You can become a hero"

That moment is just so epic and powerful. 2 episodes and so far it's a good start.
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

I agree about people overreacting to Deku's crying. He doesn't cry for no reason, I would argue so far he's reacted to many events very realistically and in-character.

This episode takes the cake from the first one, but the first ep definitely led to this great build up. Loved the scene when Deku ran to save Kacchan. You go, Deku!

Kacchan was so adorable at the end. Running after Deku just to say that lmao. Can't wait for the next episode~

Anyway this episode should at least give a little idea abt deku being one of the better shounen mc's out there. Not much, but still.

Ahh I see! And well yeah honestly I already love this character! There are a lot of MCs that are crybabies / good-for-nothing at the beginning but Deku may become one of my favourites. He's got something more, idk. It's not common to make me so emotional right at the second episode.

Didn't hate it but it was pretty weak how the other heroes couldn't do anything when the answer was to punch it. Also a lot of time wasted with flash backs and more scenes about the kid with the quirk being a jerk. Mostly just hoping for better rather than worse after Tiger and Bunny and One Punch Man.

.......probably because all might basically used enough strength to create alot of wind to blast all of him away........and the other heroes werent strong enough too do that. if u watched the last episode and this its pretty obvious that all might used to wind pressure to beat him :v

As of now, please try to refrain from looking at MAL. its a complete mess right now T-T

We already saw that one of the other heroes tried to punch it but it didn't work. All Might didn't punch it in the traditional sense. He was able to punch the air and the air pressure was what took him out.

Really Getting into this anime now after 2 episodes (still absolutely love the op), It's starting to come to a point where i might pick up the Manga.

Anyhow, after how they hinted last episode i kinda figured All-Mights "weakness" of sorts was a timer on his Invulnerable body. but thanks to Izuku will this timer get longer?
Gotta say, seeing the priorities some of the multiple heroes took (alongside numerous downsides to their quirks) showed how not everyone can save the day (even those with a quirk); alongside Izuku rushing in was pretty damn cool!

I was a tad Surprised to see that those explosions didn't make the water dissipate when Baku used his powers.

Next Episode, Training Montage(?), Alongside my question of the week, "Can you give someone else your quirk?". And Possibly the Introduction to the academy?

Considering the OP, it looks like they want to adapt the first two arcs, so most likely the pace will pick up pretty soon.

Since the last episode considering how much you and a few others hyped the manga here, I've read the first 67 chapters so far, and while it did improve significantly and the execution was above average, I still don't see it as the next big thing in terms of anime.

Kinda weird that Almight revealed his secret and weakness while the villain inside the bottle could have heard everything he was saying.

The episode was better than the first but at least 1/5 of it was flashbacks from ep 1.

Really? I've read a lil bit of the manga and it seems like the anime is having a really slow pace.

I don't know how much you've read but they would need to adapt 44 chapters into 13 episodes if they made the pacing faster. And adapting 44 chapters into 13 episodes is way too fast pacing. It looks like they'll adapt the first 21 chapters but the arc after the first 21 chapters is 23 chapters long and it wouldn't make sense to adapt only half of an arc.
It may feel slow atm because they need to drag on some parts, but it looks like it'll be 1,5-2 chapters per episode from now on. With this pacing, the anime won't catch up that much to the manga. With this pacing, we could easily get one split cour per year without worrying that the anime could catch up to the manga.
