What makes Boku no Hero Academia stand out from the other shounens like Naruto? Personally, I just think it's an anime that perfectly executes shounen tropes, but I feel like I'm not evoking my every single thought. It's so similar to other animes, yet I don't enjoy the another ones as much as this.

Edit: Please. If all you're going to say is "it's shit" and "but it's not though", then please don't waste your time writing away. Maybe I should've mentioned this, but I request the answers of people who like the show, not those who are mixed or find BNHA horrible.

Maybe if it doesn't accept it's mediocrity, then there is a chance I can find why it's better than other battle shounen, but it does.

Because it's split in to short 3 seasons with about 13 to 25 episodes each so it's easier for new people to get into compared to something like Gintama and we did have to wait 4 years for another season. And super heros movies are hot right now if you look a western live action movies.

well I know that I meant that the animation is the only thing that I find interesting (probably), Hey at least gintama has a regular release manga, try hiatus x hiatus :P. Maybe I should start gintama it has been on my waiting list for so long (seriously it even appeared in the Saiki Kusuo anime)

I'll just say that coming from a manga reader it handles most of it's characters pretty well and gives them depth & development. Besides that it does tend to follow tropes like many other shonens, I wouldn't necessarily say it's cliche but it's not the most original thing. It's fun for the most part and studio bones really outdid themselves with it.

Nothing really, other than a particularly strong feel of western comic book influence on a few characters.

But Bleach is in my opinion, had the best animation and visuals in battle shounen and look where is that at. Premise as well.

Does what better? Having the same tournament arc and training arcs?

You mean the fact that the anime got canceled? Or the manga went to trash? Because Kubo is only good at drawing and not making stories.

I said Bleach is in a shit position in the shounen industry, but adaptation-wise to animation-wise, it is still better than Boku no Hero to my eyes, and you use that as an incentive how Boku no Hero is better than other shounens yet Bleach is better on both, but the position isn't preferable.

Are y'all all really this dense? It came in when Naruto was winding down, Bleach was already dead, and there was an influx of people looking into anime because of Dragon Ball Super airing around the time. It came in at the perfect time for anything shouneny to fill the void.

As for why it remains popular, in a day in age where people are used to having something come out one season at a time through HBO, Netflix, and other streaming services, it coming out at the pacing it currently is very much fits people's expectations, unlike One Piece, which is a daunting task to someone who 'wants to get into it' to the point that very few people choose to start tackling it, or Attack on Titan, which takes far too long to come out with content, so people forget about it and get bored (along with not actually being enough to retain interest, if I express my massive bias.)

because anime fans have 0 standards nowadays which results in people thinking it's a masterpiece because "epik fights xD"
say whatever the fuck you want about naruto or bleach, but at least they had things going for it. bleach had soul society (manga, at least) which is enjoyable as hell because of it's fun character cast while naruto had tons of good characters and some arcs. this has nothing lol.

It's a stereotypical shonen executed near perfectly. Anyone that enjoys Shonen will enjoy My Hero Academia.

It's just very good :)).The reason it stands out FOR ME is that it combines the school life with heroes and mystery(one for all and all for one) and just to see how hard can All Might dick the villains!
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones!

For me, It's always been the characters, as cliche as they might be. They're not actually that cliche. Not even their quirks.
I've never seen characters feel so human just out of speech alone, and the boys really do feel like bros I'd love to hang out with.

Plus, people love suspense.
But I've got to say again, the characters are great and Deku's a rare find when you want characters who genuinely care about others and are mature as much as he is, especially for a shounen. It's unique, and that's why I love him.
