Boku no hero academia is a very good anime. It has good character development, interesting art style, and awesome soundtracks. Even though I like this anime, there are also some downsides as well.
Good parts:
One good things about this anime is the message. Although some may say that the message, anyone can become a hero, is corny and a bit unrealistic, I found this to be very inspiring and heartwarming. In other words you don't really need to have powers or capes to be a hero. Just lending a helping hand to anyone in trouble is good enough.
The characters are also pretty decent as well. Sadly, the series only concentrates on Deku, Bakugo, and All Might so far. The other characters are yet to be explored thoroughly but they do have a lot of potential so I hope that as the series goes on, we would learn most of the character's personality and reasons for wanting to be a hero.
For me personally, I just adore the art style. It's rough like sketches and thick outlines matches the superhero like theme very well. Also, the action scene in episode 12 was just amazing. (No spoilers)
BTW, can I mention that the ost for Boku no hero academia like "Say you Run" and "You can be a Hero" is like a 10/10. It really conveys the emotions of the current scenes and makes you think you're actually inside of the anime. I tip my hat to you Porno Graffiti.
This show also has good pacing. Every time each episode ended, it made me want to see more of it and just when I thought nothing interesting can come out of the current episode, something new and exciting comes out in the end that makes me wanna see more.
Bad parts:
The premise of Boku no hero academia has been used many times. The idea about how the world gets super power and stuff just gets repetitive at times and this show is no exception but how they handled the details and such made this show worth while.
Also the trope," I want to be a hero" is a bit cliche. It's basically every goal of every shounen main character ever.
I sorta did found Deku's character a bit annoying and jarring. He cries literally every two seconds and he gets nervous about everything, but these type of characters are luckily not overused. This creates an opportunity to make the character grow stronger each passing day, so when you look back at how far he/she developed, you feel somewhat satisfied.
I give this show a 9 out of 10 which I may have gave it more credit than it deserves but this is my final conclusion. Hope you liked this review!!!
