Preliminary (15/25 eps)
My Hero Academia 4 follows the MHA formula of putting a villain arc and then a training arc or 2 and then rinse and repeat, copying MHA3 through doing a rescue arc and then a license arc.

The story is mediocre and easily understandable, clearly meant to appeal to a young demographic. I don't need to go through it again, however it needs to be said that the pacing is god awful.

The art is overall very pretty for the most part and the animation switches between pretty good and "HOLY SHIT THIS LOOKS INCREDIBLE" (refer to episodes 10-13) but occasionally the show downgrades to ugly as sin (refer to episode 15). I should also mention that the incredible animation and art follows a very interesting style where everything can be reduced to just hyperdetailed motion circles and cubes or removing and expanding objects in respect to those shapes.

This anime overall sounds great, especially in the hyper scenes

Characters are pretty average, theres not really anything I can say. Todoroki is still Diet Zuko, Deku is still average Shounen protag. There is Kai Chisaki who is a slightly complicated character.

Overall this season falls behind the other seasons for most episodes but for its highest moments, it's the best in the series, just like season 3, i'm starting to sense i'm going to like the first half much more than the ending.
