| I'm still waiting for Aizawa... |
| This is like the 100th article about this show If it sucks I'm blaming mal |
Lol. A bit exaggerating, but I must agree. Even so, the character design looks. I'm expecting more about this anime. And, I won't blame MAL if the story went ashtray. |
| It feels like we get a ridiculous amount of character design reveals lol |

Best character design I've ever seen, did she goes full naked when she only use the glove? |

| he had a tail? what. |
Xenocrisi said: Will the news for this anime ever end? Yes, when it finally airs, it will most likely stop. Though I don't see the problem, a lot of people are excited, so why does it matter if there's some news about it? It's not like they're talking it up, just revealing new information. |

| Seens like some ONE PUNCHMAN ripoff |

That is a lot better way to put it lol I thought you were just some troll but at least you give a reason for why you think so. I wouldn't really say it's a ripoff as it has a completely different story telling. While One Punch Man is about someone trying to find a strong opponent, Boku no Hero Academia is about a guy wanting to become a hero, but has a hard time due to his troublesome power. I would say the manga is good so far, it has some clear rules and it definitely has different values than One Punch Man focus on. |
| Rikidou Satou looks a whole lot like Hattori from Bakuman. |
  |
| The tail design looks kind of stupid and off putting *Kouji Kouda* looks pretty interesting though |
