Is this gonna be a parody of OPM?

Nope, it's an actual super hero theme series that get some inspiration from Western comics.

Don't forget Naruto. The author a big fan of Naruto.

What do you mean by timeslot?

The My Hero Academia anime will be airing in the 'Nichigo' timeslot, which means Sundays at 5pm. This timeslot consistently holds 2-cour anime.

Wow, I'm actually quite amazed by the fact thay they name timeslots. And that those exist. Anyway, thanks for the reply! Learned something new :)

Every anime in the timeslot in which this is airing has had 24 episodes, so I don't think you need to worry.

Anyway, PV looks pretty good. Liking the thick outlines and faithfulness to the manga style.

Looks great and all, really though props to Bones.
But I'm scared that they won't be able to fully bring out this series potential if it'll only have 12 episodes. It might probably have enough material for a 2 cour. But than a second season might not be a possibility.

It's a JUMP series. Pretty sure it will be 2-cour just like AssClass, HQ!! and Souma. And it will probably get another season if the manga sales were boosted high enough, which I'm pretty sure of, given it's timeslot and how mainstream it is.

Don't know those series, unless by 'Souma' you mean Shokugeki no Souma.
And what's a JUMP series?
I made a mistake there, I thought if the manga was turned into a 2 cour we'd probably have to wait some time before there's enough material for a 2nd season.
Anyway I am really looking forward to it, sadly the manga didn't attract me until the latter arcs, that's why I'm hoping that the anime will adapt as much as possible.

Yeah, I meant Shokugeki no Souma. Looks like you're pretty new to anime/manga terms. When I said JUMP series, it means that it's serialized in Weekly Shounen Jump magazine which is a popular magazine and that's where most of the big shounen series came from like One Piece, Naruto and Bleach. Usually most of their adaptations are long-running and full of fillers but recently, there've been a trend of them being made into 2-cour per season instead just like the ones I mentioned above. And they don't really care about BD/DVD sales as long as the manga is selling well (all 3 that I mentioned got 2nd seasons even though the BD/DVD sales for 2 of them are not that good). For a weekly manga, 1.5 year is enough materials for each 2-cour season and that's pretty much the common gap between each anime season.

Oh I know that magazine. Didn't know 'Jump Series' was a term though.
Yeah I took the 2-3 manga chapters for 1 episode and so it should be just enough for a 2-cour right.
Oh lol, AssClass must be Assassination Classroom, than what does HQ stand for?
Well that's odd, didn't expect them to make an anime when it probably won't even do well.
But I guess if it boosts the manga sales it's logical.

HQ means Haikyuu

Why that abbreviation? Because of the pronunciation?

Yeah probably. I guess Japan thinks that's cool.

I thought you came up with it.

No, it's a term used quite a lot. Check the synonyms in the manga database: http://myanimelist.net/manga/35243/Haikyuu

Also note, you started off talking to one person, and ended up talking to another.

Oh right, stupid me, I checked out the anime's page but didn't border with the manga's.
Yeah sorry about that question.

Dissapointed it's not Tatsuya Kato, I was expecting to be him since a rip-off of this was used in the PVs.

I like Kato, but outside of Horizon he's done nothing on the level of Hayashi's best stuff.

I know this is subjective af, but i find hilarious how im really familiar to Kato's music but i havent listened anything of Horizon (his so called best score ever) yet, and i havent touched anything of Hayashi either. Let's see...

I like them both but overall I'd pick Hayashi too. The first show I've watched with his OSTs was Gundam Build Fighters and I've been keeping an eye on him since then.

No joke, once more bones just makes me bone

Jump Series could also mean
Weekly Young Jump(not all series from it even get an anime) so its better to be a bit more specific

Feb 28, 2016 4:31 PM by harkan

Ah, I'm so excited! PV looks so cool, definitely watching since I have been following the manga for a while now!

Feb 28, 2016 4:14 PM by hopeless408
