lol even the guy in the helicopter call the skruggs 'cockroach' XD
for the episode, It's nice but it's kinda annoying when Joey everytime shouts 'Heroman!' and the robot has to make a pose after it beats up the aliens. I'm not really bothered by Joey voice actually.
and for Will, gosh he is such a retard because he wants to be a 'Hero'.

Overall I enjoy it 4/5 but not that much still nice animation and music^^

Every time Joey says Heroman, I want to jump off a cliff. Seriously Joey, give the old guy his coffee and shut up!

But for the episode, it was decent. Needs more Lina and less Joey.

The super saiyan was so un-needed xD, this was me the entire episode. specially when he tried to protect a robot who clearly has 100x more survivability than he does.

i guess being partially deaf and liking rock and roll music somehow helps sometimes

I'm sort of amazed so many people missed a few facts like Joey having already used the shield previously. It's the good thing about presenting powers early on, it doesn't feel like an asspull of last moment, and you see why he would jump. But then they do it and people complain, as if they don't know the most basic thing of storytelling.

This thread sort of feels like a group of kids whining and wanting to feel mature by bashing a cartoon they think is immature, and can't even get some things right without getting spoonfed.

Gotta love how they already broke the status quo and the whole city is in ruins. Surprised at the people getting killed on screen, despite no blood. Also the showing of the pilots felt very human, instead of "just" blowing up the helicopters without showing any signs of human life.
Joey doesn't seem to make any efforts to hide Heroman. The granny thing was cliché, but I'll be damned if the fight wasn't cool, and Joey himself getting into the fight breaks that "Pokemon" style of battle that could've happened (although we already saw in the OP that).

It's also fairly obvious Will, Psy and Joey got something going on. Maybe Will is responsible for Psy's injuries.

And lastly... FUCK YEAH PRESIDENT WITH MANLY SIDEBURNS.

I'm not laughing with this show or cheering Heroman on, I'm laughing at how horrible it really is. The animation has taken a turn for the worse, the Heroman/Josephine combo is probably the worst team ever and there's no semblance of a story yet. I think I'm just too old for this shit.

Anyway, I'll still watch and laugh, despite the fact I'm almost convinced it won't be getting any better.

Bones should've just made a Spider-man anime.

Wow, this changed my aspects of the anime a lot. As much as I don't enjoy aliens and robots in anime, this may be an exception because in the beginning you think this is going to be some sweet little kids show. But, all of a sudden, bombs are being blasted here and there.


The end gave me chills with the whole Earth broadcast...

Seriously? WTF? How much is your I.Q? Did you really expected to be a no fighting kid show? Wasn't it obvious that it was gonna be about bad evil bug Aliens from the start? And it's still a kid show by the way.

This episode made the whole thing a lot worse for me.
This show is so bad that is actually fun to watch. A paradox in full rhythm.
BTW that football player is the classic idiot and he must suck at math because his calculations about going against those aliens were very badly made.

Dropped. Not even Stan Lee can save this shit.


My friend, Stan Lee is the very reason this is shit.
I wonder what kind of faces the Bones staff have when they are given the instructions on what to create for this US bullshit. They are probably thinking "why am i wasting my talent drawing such things?. Is there a new season Darker than Black we can draw? Oh! shit don't tell me i have to draw the US flag again."


Daithi said:
I don't really like the way the skrugg just stand there and get the crap kicked out of them, the fights are way to awkward and stiff for me.


Yeah didn't like that myself. I realized from the first episode that this show was gonna be a clishe silly childish show but i hoped that it could still have entertaining battles to make it brainless fun. BUt with the Aliens just standing there like idiots and having the agility of Robocop, fights are gonna be stupid and repetitive.

Finally feels like a shounen because the plot is REALLY slowing down....
BTW next episode is about a giant ball. With spikes. Whoah!

I love this show for it's Clichéness, so i am going to continue to watch until it becomes like Naruto, Bleach, Reborn... Which hopefully won't happen.

I love how Heroman makes a victory O after defeating anything. And yes for more stan lee cameos. It is like find waldo, and eventually he will have made more appearances in this then in anything else. (Does he put himself in his own comics?)

The return of Stan Lee + AMERICA, FUCK YEAH made this episode awesome.

OK, just kidding. Sort of. I've come to accept that this is a really stupid, one-dimensional show, but for what it is, it's actually pretty good at it. So, yeah, this episode was certainly an improvement.

I like that there trying to be nice and show the moral value of going after granma but if thats all this kids capable of thats not going to be much. They should see if the left over body part can be used, and what happens to the aliens' guns they should be on the floor. I wouldn't call this a smart or very original anime. I like the classics being used but please be alittle more inventive about them.

I thought this episode was ok. There was a little story progression and Joey is beginning to actually utilize his powers to fight the enemy and protect the ones he loves by choice and not by force. I was pretty pleased with this episode but it wasn't great, just ok. Hope the episodes get a bit better with a little more character development. Till next episode....

LOL. This.

I'm going to pay more attention on the show now, its like it is teasing us to discover, *ahem* what "inspired" it. So far in we have in Heroman:

*Aliens w/ sharingans.
*Flash Thompson who looks like a teen version of SF's Guile/Charlie.
*Heroman looks just like someone out of Megaman series.
*^Not only that It can turn super saiyan too.
*Soon we will discover that Joey - or should we call him JoJo? - has a star shaped birthmark on his back! He already got his Stand!!!

I'm sure it won't end there...LOL

That's because it is, and is supposed to be. It's not supposed to be breaking new ground, it's here to entertain. Who the fuck came up with the rule that something needs to innovate, and make you think in order to be good entertainment?

That was barely a mind fuck. It isn't hard to understand what happened. It was stupid. End of story. They needed A LOT more time to pull that off.

I'm sorry, but I had to laugh when the cops yelled, "America Banzai!" So much of this is cliche and embarrassing, but I just keep watching. The only thing that actually annoys me is Will. What the hell is going on in his head? He hates Joey for breathing! I mean how ungrateful can you get.

You know, I think you guys who said Joey is girl were right.Taking a good look on the opening, it really seems like Joey is a girl. Hell...It could be a twin sister but who knows...

That kinda explains being all friendly with Lina, and I can see Will's hate turning into love in the very instant he discovers that. lol

Ah , well
I'm at loss for words.

This show doesn't suit my taste. I'm turning 19 this year. Wish there'd be something like this when I was around 8.

If it's not BONES, if the art isn't so beautiful, I might already drop the show.

Wondering what's in Will's head, how can he become a hero? What plan is on his mind?
Two kids to Aliens' lair... hmm

Sorry Joey, but I think you didn't fight at all! You just stood there and shouted.
Since it's BONES's anime, I'm anticipating to see some epic plot or the like in the very near future.
But what I can do now, is to appreciate the art. The painting of White House is surely gorgeous!!

Oh and did I miss something?
"America Banzai",, was it supposed to be funny or anything? because I felt nothing at all. =_=
Is it because it sounds sarcastic for Japanese voice actors to hail for another country?

Dunno, but I think these kids will turn into aliens as well, judging from the opening.

Initially I thought the whole "the series itself is the joke" was tolerable and a nice throwback. Now being three episodes in it's starting to become grating.

Because of the huge amounts of action cliches basic anime cliches I was wondering where this thing was going (I mean they had the whole "don't be late/forget your lunch" "don't jackoff in class" routine, even though it's supposed to be American school). But I just came to the conclusion that this anime is going piss on the face of every anime ever when Heroman went Saiyan.. It's just so wrong when this series is trying to keep a SERIOUS face while doing something like that.

I couldn't help laughing my ass off though
