    My Hero Academia Ep1

    A solid introductory episode, and right off the bat. The episode was mostly about explaining the world and setting up the plot.

    OP

    ED



    Waiting for next week.

    Where they will probably end the episode next week is kind of where I expected them to end it this week, but I'm glad they didn't rush it at all. Really solid first episode and next week it just gut punches you in the stomach with feels all the harder.

    My Hero Academia Ep 2

    I think Bones playing it slow with the adaption is a good thing. The anime expanding and/or adding a couple scenes now and then to get some more downtime/build-up would be a good thing.

    2nd episode was as good as I thought it would be! Really fantastic! And yeah, I agree, I'm happy they fleshed it out and didn't try to stuff all that into 1 episode. The build up was great and just made the episode all the better

    That was a pretty hype ending. Continues to be best anime this season.

    I remember Bakugou being that intense in the manga but the anime did a great job of just revving it up that much more. His shocked face/realization at the end was all the better because of how sharp the contrast was.

    I know it's Shonen Jump and etc, etc, but I can see a real shock and awe kind of finish to the fight next week.

    Spoiler: show
    Not All Might dying, but his secret being out of the bag (which is kind of already is) and himself being severely injured

    I think...

    Spoiler: show
    All might will stall long enough for midoriya to come and do some super move which will effectively cripple him for life but saving all might or something, if it is going to be the last chapter type deal. But I feel its going to keep going

    Anything short of All Might dying would honestly disappoint me.

    Overall, his time as a hero has been limited due to both his injury and then passing on his power. Going out in the line of duty is pretty much the most "heroic" thing he has left to do. So, while the world would go on to be shocked, sad, and wondering just how villains like All For One can be stopped, it provides the perfect motivation for Deku and his friends to step up their game, possibly even providing Bakugou with the maturity he's been needing to acquire to overcome his grudge.

    As for Deku, I can't see there being much training left for him to get from All Might. His heart is already in the right place, it's just his body that isn't there yet. He's also shown ways to utilize the power that have surprised even All Might. With hand-boy apparently being the prior AM's grandson, they've also basically set up the whole generational conflict to go on between him and Deku.

    On another forum I visit, it had been quoted that the author felt like he was only about 20% way through the story he wanted to tell so yeah, I think we have plenty of HnA to go

    arus, I agree with you. Huge change up in the plot coming!

    yup

    Spoiler: show
    I think one for all knows he is dying slowly also, so he has some way to pass on his powers to bakugou. He can probably feel the guys rage toward midoriya is huge, and his need for power to beat him would make him turn to the dark side to do so.

    So the battle will probably end in some way with all might crippled for life, midoriya will maybe save all might or something? (probably not, all might will probably hit all for one so hard he gets fatally wounded).

    Anyway another season (timeskip of X years) of growing tensions between midoriya and bakugou leading to bakugou finding all ofr one again before he dies, gets the guys powers.. and all out epic final battle bakugou vs midoriya all for one vs one for all with flashbacks of their lives, manly tears and 3/4ths the city blown away during the fight

    I don't see Bakugou going dark. While he does go too far at times, he's been steadily getting better about controlling his insanity and finding the right thing to do. Why I think AM dying would be good for him is that he hasn't quite pieced together the consequences of the work they're getting into since it's basically been an age of peace/control for the heroes. As is, he's already been outsmarted by Deku and also knows there's another classmate who can rival him in power. So, while he does have incentive to get stronger, they're also not out to kill him like a villain would. Realistically, he's not much different than Deku, he's just let pride control his actions from an early age.

    If AFO really is dying, too, then I'd say his aims have been to groom hand-boy into being the next big bad. After all, it's almost uncharacteristic of a villain to be like, "It's okay you failed, we'll just try again later." and not, like, kill/maim someone. The kid being related to AM's teacher is obviously a psychological blow to AM, but I don't think such a reveal will have that great an impact to the others. At the very least, I think it'll it lead to some power of friendship turn near the end when hand-boy does something he probably shouldn't have in his quest to spite heroes. But yeah, I do feel a time skip is coming.

    With the reveal of him being the previous OFA's grandson, my first thought was that he'd inherit AFO and get friendship/talk-no-jutsu'd ala Naruto at the end. As is tradition in Shounen Jump.

    If All Might doesn't die I'm gonna be kinda pissed. I wish more shonen manga were more ballsy about killing characters off. Especially since All Might was shown as sick/dying/weakening since the beginning of the series.
