A lot of fun at first - generic, but enjoyable and well-written. But it falls victim to that dumb trope where they author feels like they have to always be raising the stakes. Just like Naruto. You’ll have this fun story about a kid learning to fight and all of his school buddies and they encounter challenges and grow and THEN OH MY GOD IT’S THE GREATEST EVIL AND THE WORLD IS BLOWED UP…. Seriously, dudes. If you feel the urge to blow up every major world city and rack up a body-count in the millions, just so we know that this time it’s finally the really important fight… lay off the Adderall, go have a nap, and think about other ways to end a story that feel more satisfying and organic.
I still remember the first time I read the forest training arc, and how excited I got with every chapter. It's a really nice memory.
...It has been a long time since the series has been able to capture that level of hype for me. At this point I'm just reading new chapters on autopilot. It's a damn shame because the author was able to maintain a pretty decent story quality for a long time before dropping off. When you start hoping for a manga to end quickly with every chapter, you know it's not going to come back to that level any more. I just hope the ending isn't too bad.

It's like the pacing slowed down, it used to be hype. I dropped this manga once and came back to it because a certain character finally had character development and has the most character development despite not being the main character but it feels like it sometimes. Gave an apology finally but then it's hard to tell if they really want to change or not. But then you realize at this point it doesn't matter our main three are the only ones who need the spotlight to develop. Those characters being Mi, Ka, and Oc not Mr Sh.The art is good as always so that's never a problem.
It feels like a drag to wait for chapters every week so I'll wait a month or two and hope the mess I saw cleans itself up.
Despite what I said though there is at least one character I do like and keep reading for them.

So after Shigiraki has his first direct battle with DEKU the story goes down hill. The it around the 300s in chapter range
DEKU starts going rogue and all that Then every thing goes well when Ururaka does her little speech to get her DEKU points and that wraps up that edgy ark. The blonde sparkly traitor who was found by chance but he admitted so much you forget.His personality did a 180 despite him bragging about it.
He was forgiven so easily I didn't expect torture or any thing but a forgiveness cliche has never made me want to throw up so badly. (I think Batman would be more reasonable). Then you have the Toga nonsense that happened near recently. Was not handled all that well or rather the story could have gone without it. We're constantly reminded of Ururaka's feelings but it doesn't go any where like every other time for the story in Chapter 348.

Derivative but a really good entry in the genre. What's most important in these kinda mangas is that it gives you a universe you can fantasy existing in and we have that here.
I really like superheroes, however we all know the flaws about them in comics and sadly is already happening here.
We got a good oneshot, a nice prequel, and great anime, I gonna give a hold and read again later, hoping for a great future or nice conclusion after this chaos.

Extra Power Ups, flashbacks with plot holes, foreseeable turns of events, nonsense drama, jokes in bad moments, fillers and forced extension of story. The bad taste I feel, is like when you love the first movie and the sequel make you want to forget about it.

In most cases I like the manga better than the anime. Here, however, I find the anime better and, exceptionally, the dub better than the original version.
If I had to give reasons, then I perceive more feelings in the anime than in the manga. In some places the Manga is "choppy". In conclusion the emotions/story aren´t conveyed flawless. Also the Anime is flashy and suits the Heroes very well!
Despite the constant introduction of quirks and stuff x)
Plz enjoy watching! :3

It's really a typical shounen manga. A boy with a huge big dream yet not perfect suddenly get a power because of his "NOT GIVING UP" attitude. Reminds me of Naruto, except instead of ninja, it's heroes. Not bad actually, I like the character developments and the art too. It is indeed a typical shounen manga, but meh... I these characters, so will keep reading.
After the Eri's arc I actually thought the author previous work is Hitman reborn but I was wrong, the first 100 chapter was good the battle is exciting but then as it drag it grow so similar to hitman reborn, where the hero are just getting random power up instead of actually using what they currently have, the battle also choreographed people suddenly leave behind to stall for no damn reason, people charging ahead even thou there's really no need to, most of the character changed from actual human behavior to just some happy go lucky side character.
I hope the author could change direction,and go back to what it used to be but it probably wont happen.

A typical shounen manga with a main lead that spits out lecture here and there, brainwashs everyone he encounters and wins the world by the classic "never give up" spirit. The other characters are also quite bland. Maybe except for Tokoyami and his quirk "dark shadow" - pretty unique. To sum it up, it's the same old material but the author add some extra patches to make it looks more logical, less obvious bias/shallow than our previous shounen manga. Midoriya is like a mix of Gon HxH and Tsuna KHR - unsurprisingly I don't like them both. Anyway, super natural is always fun to watch, so the manga is pretty refreshing at the moment, but it's just that. I don't think I will remember much about the series once it ended.
To be honest i was born with no skills and I have seen bunch of people who are perfect at everything they do even if they had school they would not put any effort and they would be perfect at it, well this manga made me feel like I can do anything, is something weird but they only got one quirk and they need to train it so it becomes an asset for when they become a hero. You might think DBZ, Naruto, one piece are the masters over there and I won't say no to them, I like the old school too, but i think if a manga makes you feel something then it means the author did a good job.
