| I've seen a lot of people complaining about this season and it breaks my heart because this was actually a highlight arc in the manga for me. BUT I can actually see where people are coming from; Bones is adapting BNHA poorly and BNHA as a franchise is losing fans because of it. They keep having near 5-minute recaps that we don't need, flashbacks to stuff that we bloody remember well enough, and the stiff and drawn-out way they're telling the story is killing the flow. Another thing I've noticed is that the studio puts so little effort into the secondary character's scenes which is annoying because yes, Deku is the MC but in the manga the secondary characters are built up and important too but Bones is just ruining that great trait of BNHA. Sorry for the long post but I'm genuinely gutted about what Bones is doing to one of my favorite franchises. Do you guys agree with my opinion? |

| I dont read the manga so I can't really tell if they are ruining the adaptation or not...but i sure do need those recaps, my memory is shit |

| Everytime man^^ Just because the Anime is (and this is just your opinion) not as good as the source Material, it doesn't mean that the Franchise is ruined... Keep your Manga. Read it. Be happy^^ It didn't stop to exist, just because you don't like the current season. I keep reading the whole *Recap*...and *Man why do they need to blend in the Quirks everytime* posts. Guys. This is Shonen. This is intentional. It's been like this since Dragonball. It's smart marketing, to keep the viewer (the young boy, cause that is the target group here) up to date, interested and engaged, by constantly reminding them how "awesome" everything is and was. It's made for young kids, to never wonder what is happening or to loose touch. This is just how this industry works... it's not made to get you angry xD -> It's made to milk as much money and relevance out of the Franchise as possible. |

| Hard to kill something that's already dead. Bones should drop this garbage and actually put resources on another project. |

| Bones are doing a great job as always, but more and more lose interest in My Hero Academia. |

| In all truth, the adaptation is only mediocre because the manga content is mediocre. Not only is the arc uninteresting and repetitive, but also around this time the manga chapters became shorter and shorter. There's a lot of planning and storyboarding that goes into making an episode last the required 22 minutes of TV broadcast and Bones just doesn't have enough content to fill them while structuring for a full 25 episode season. Hence the necessary padding that drags the episodes out even more. But let me tell you, the last thing you want is for Studio Pierrot to get their hands on this series. They'd absolutely destroy it. |

| I was so glad when most shonen anime switched to seasonal rather than weekly so they could fix the pacing issues. But this season is putting out episodes like they’ve got a full year scheduled. 2 full episodes per fight? really? They could do 2 an episode no problem. Not that the manga was any better in this arc, just a waste of dozens of chapters. It’s not like any of the class b (or frankly half of class a) students are relevant enough to deserve this much screen time. |

| Lmao you must be joking.It wasn't even a good arc to begin with.The reason the pacing is bad is because the Manga pacing is bad.If they decide to change the pacing they may make it worse.So they just decided to copy the manga. Everytime I'm hearing the same argument,Recap!Recap! and more Recap!! It is like that for most shounen out there you know. I gave it a 6 because it's just another training arc.

Scordolo said: You be trippin hard bro.It's one of the most popular anime of all time.The ratings in TV Japan skyrocketed once episode 1 came out. Actually MHA is in a hard to fail time slot, Saturdays at 5:30pm, and it's still pulling in lower TV ratings than the shows that were in it's place before, Hanyou no Yashashime and Gegege no Kitaro. MHA isn't as big in Japan as it is in the West. The last movie, Heroes Rising, only grossed about $2.5m at the Japanese box office in its three-day opening weekend. The North American box office almost matched that in a single day at $2.47m. In fact, its NA five-day opening weekend box office gross was almost more than its entire Japanese gross. |

| Nah I strongly disagree, even if the lastest episode was subpar the previous two were legitimatly great adaptation-wise. Bones ain't killing the arc, the arc in itself suck, and the only thing Bones could have really handled better is the pacing, but other than that you just can't expect them to pull out great episodes with such weak material. S4 should have been the best but the adaptation was weak most of the time, this is the ONLY case where you're allowed to blame them. If people complain about the current arc, it's because the arc sucks, not because of Bones. |

| Bones have been adapting this series from the start and it was all good or fine up to this point. It's not the studio's fault that the current arc they're adapting is quite weak compared to others. The only complaint I'd have is the repetitive character quirk introductions. I mean, bruh, it's the 5th season already, I remember the names and quirks of the main characters by now! -.- |
| No, this arc is just as bad as in the manga. The next arc is even worse. I feel annoyed when they keep showing their quirks or flashbacks. I just immediately skip. I feel like the flashbacks have increased in number since season 4. |
 |
| MHA is killing Bones If you think if MHA switch studios it will become a masterpiece, the reality is completely opposite Bones is better off making more quality originals that flops than adopting something that writes bullying and war crime in such an appalling way |

TweedleDane said:  honestly , bones should just drop this and give OPM s3 for us . or any of the shows they have previously made that have material for a sequel . this is just tiring , really..... J.C ain’t giving it up lol |
| I honestly just skip the recaps. Sure, my memory can be crap but stop spoon feeding me the same scene showing the classes every week haha either way, as a primarily anime watcher for this series, I'm just holding on because I hear it gets better. We'll see. |
The World Suffused with Sound.  |
| Nah.. It's just MHA that kind of sucks. In my opinion the Anime peaked at the climax of Season 3. Season 4 was boring af and the writing got worse. Not to mention animation got worse. I have a feeling season 5 will be the same as well future season. It seems we're at the point now where a movie has to release with every new season. |

Sorry for the long post but I'm genuinely gutted about what Bones is doing to one of my favorite franchises. Do you guys agree with my opinion? I think there have been times where Bones dropped the ball (the best example of this probably being how they ruined the Mirio vs Overhaul fight, thus self-sabotaging that arc). I think that's largely due to them having to split resources with the movie production (which is one of the reasons I'm not too fond of the movies). But so far, with this season, I feel like they've been doing a good job. The animation has been good, they spent good time fleshing out the Tokoyami-Hawks internship. I find your claim that they're focusing on secondary characters less than in the manga absurd. My only real critiques so far are the recaps, and also the misuse of the soundtrack. It seems like we haven't been getting any new tracks, and hearing the league of villains theme play for one of the class b kids was weird. I didn't really care for this arc when reading it, but I'm actually enjoying it here. I don't think MHA is losing fans, rather its popularity fuels the counter-fandom. |
