| It does have some high points but to me it's mostly typical/mundane well executed superhero/battle shounen stuff. If you like animation or battles for the sake of it then yeah continue but if look for a serious different approach to superheroes or battle shounens then I wouldn't recommend continuing. |

| It gets way over-praised for being an average battle shounen. I don't think it's bad overall (and 2nd season was better), but if it's not your thing, I don't think anything later on in the series is going to change your mind about it. |
| It's a very typical battle shounen storyline, from zero-to-hero, you have the determined charismatic mc, the hot-headed rival, the love interest, the mentor, the superpowers, the villain organization, etc, but done in a very solid and satisfying way. |
| Yes if you have even the least bit of interest in the shounen battle genre continue it's pretty good |
| I'd say keep watching it for about 5 more episodes and see if the storyline twists to your liking. I almost stopped watching it after the first episode for the same reason, but i continued months later and found that this "superhero" plot was actually decent. I'm watching season 2 now lol |
| I really like the show and the manga and would recommend it to people, it is really fun an enjoyable (to me). however if, like you said the premise and setting is not something you like too much there is probably not much in it for you. Yes the show gets better and better the longer it goes imo but it still is a pretty basic superhero themed shounen with a lot of superhero training so, no you should probably not watch any more if you really don't want to. I mean you could check out one or two more episodes but I doubt they'll change your mind. |

| I'd say BnHA is one of those shows that is simply good at being what it is. It really offers nothing new or unique, nothing that we haven't seen before in other battle-shounen anime, nothing that doesn't crop up a million other times in plenty of other shows. It has your general character archetypes, it has your tournament arc, it has your useless-MC-gets-stronger-overtime theme. The difference is the execution. It's simply good at being one of those shows. If you don't particularly enjoy the premise or have much of a fondness for this style of story in the first place, then there's not really anything in BnHA that would change your mind. It's fairly cookie-cutter from start to finish. If you're not fussed either way, then it's definitely worth giving a shot simply due to the aforementioned execution - it ranges from being decent to pretty damn great over the two seasons. |
 It's an entirely different kind of flying, altogether! It's an entirely different kind of flying. |
| I found the first season very slow and boring, but the second season really improved. If you didn't like the first episode then it's best not to waste your time watching the remaining episodes. |
| I've never watched it, but it looks like you've only seen 1 episode so far, so I'd recommend watching a few more episodes before giving final judgment. |
 |
| Obviously watch it, it's trying to be one of the best Shounen's ever. The second season is even better. |
| I thought the same when I first watched it. But it is something more than meets the eye. I suggest atleast reaching season 2. It did kind of remind me of Sky High which was horrible but I assure you that it's a great shounen |
| It's a good anime if you're not expecting something new or interesting. |
| I think you should continue OP, try getting to the end of 2nd season, if you still don't feel interested in it by that point, drop it. |
PokeFan2112 said: After people in many chats rec'd it for several months, I finally decided to watch My Hero Academia's first episode. I didn't really want to do this, as reading about the plot hardly revealed anything I found interesting, mostly just the protagonist training to be a hero and stuff. If you don't want to watch it then don't, no one is forcing you to. With that being said I believe that its's a highly overrated Anime and don't understand it's appeal. |
 |
| I mean, it doesn't really do anything new. If you don't like superhero stuff in the first place I doubt you're going to like it. |
 |
| Its a good shonen anime with dope fights and power ideas. |
| if you want to become the "narutard" of the current generation, then keep watching |
Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
| why do you need other people to tell you if you should stop watching something or not? |
 |
| If you enjoy what you see, then go watch it ofc. |

| If you have to ask others if you should keep watching, then you probably shouldn't keep watching. |

| Should you keep pandering to the medium saying "this is so deep, look at that symbolism about love"? If you think, yes, the continue watching it, otherwise, don't. I've heard a lot about BnHA being good shounen anime or whatever, but I truthfully haven't seen it. Although I know for a fact that, shounen typically focus on the battle side spectrum to keep young lads entertained. I dropped Boruto for the similar passion because I didn't felt like I can get more into the series despite enjoying Naruto. |
| First season is *fine* but generic fare. Things get good season 2, "best shonen outside of Hunter x Hunter" good. If season 2 does nothing for you, the stuff that's going to be covered in season 3 probably won't change your mind, so giving up on it would make sense at that point. |
| TEN COMMANDMENTS: 1) If Evangelion and Psycho-Pass are his only 10s, he probably also worships Tool and smells like cheesy puffs 2) Freudian psychosis =/= good writing 3) Moe blob art style is only ok in pure slice-of-life comedy 4) It's ok to enjoy shounen. Having fun is allowed 5) It is not ok to enjoy isekai (jk, it is, I just fucking hate it) 6) Creator breakdown =/= good writing 7) A story does not have to be wrapped up with a bow. Life is messy, why would a good story need to be tidy? 8) InuYasha is proto-Twilight 9) Ecchi CAN be good, but is almost always an abomination 10) If God is real, They allowed Super Kid to happen, so fuck Them |
| If you ever dream of having a son, you should watch it. It's a light-hearted story about dreams and admiration for justice fighters. |
| I mean, yes. The show is about an academy for super heroes. But the MC doesn't get into the academy until episode 12. |
 |
| I never seen that series but it seems like a Shonen type anime to me, basically, if you like everything on Adult Swim you may like this. I would watch maybe a few more episodes to see if you like this sort of series. There are a lot of shonen/action anime fans out there so there are a lot of people who suggest you watch this series as well. |

| There are better shounens out there but it's enjoyable for what it is |

| It Gets Better Later On. Season 2 is Fantastic even though you will have to sit through 13 Meh episodes to get there |

| I didn't really like the first two episodes, but it keeps getting better and better. But I only recommend watching it if you like shounen and battle scenes. |
  “If you live for yourself you’ve only got yourself to blame. So I can’t really blame anyone else and I don’t have any regrets.” list |
| what the hell kind of question is that? if you like it watch it if you don't, well don't. |
| You are obviously just watching the show to prove to yourself and others that you were right about not being interested in it in the first place. No way you'll enjoy it if you have that kind of attitude from the start. Giving a show a try means more than just double-clicking the file while staring at the screen. It means mentally opening yourself to what it is trying to do, being open to it and not watching it like a hawk, waiting to spot flaws or reasons for you not to like them. It doesn't sound like you ever gave the show a shot, so there is no point in forcing to continue. Threads like this, where you have to ask that question, can almost always be answered with a general 'no' because they usually come from a similar place, of just forcing yourself to check out a series because of its popularity, but not wanting to like it from the start since you made up your mind about it already, and just want to shut up the people who tell you you can't judge it because you haven't seen it. Classic case of self-fulfilling prophecy and a waste of everyone's time. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| If you're not into the hero genre period then it's probably not for you. Granted if you're tired of shitty hero movies not have repercussions and limits to their power with the addition of a colorful cast and good social themes weaved into the narrative it gets stronger as the time goes on, especially in S2 and the upcoming S3 definitely. |
 |
| If the show failed to interest you, don't watch it. You'll just ended up hating it if you force yourself to continue |

| you clearly are already negative about watching it so watching more would be a waste of time. how vastly superior could episode 2 be from episode 1? you will feel the same way |
