Julius Posted December 5 Posted December 5 OP for Beastars Final Season is a banger and continues the trend of these being some of the most creative OPs in anime: Love it 2
Glen-i Posted December 5 Posted December 5 That is miles better then the second season one! That one felt a bit generic compared to the lovely stop-motion first season opening. Can't wait for this! One of the few animes that truly captured my attention. 1
Julius Posted December 11 Posted December 11 (edited) Finished Season 7 of My Hero Academia a little earlier this evening. It's been a while since I've watched and completed any anime. It was phenomenal, and I completed it in just a few days (I mean, I tried to pace myself). If I thought S6 was taking the show back to the heights of the first cour of S3, then S7 may genuinely be challenging S2 as my favourite season of the show. The music is hype as hell (and there's so much that's new!), the fights feel a level above with how they're broken down (not quite at the level of something like HxH, but it's so much better than MHA has offered for a while now), the twists and turns are exhilarating, and it just peels back layer after layer on some characters while still retaining a great fog of mystery around others. More than a few moments got me choked up, and it feels like virtually EVERYONE got their moment to shine – momentS, in a couple of cases. The only bummer was that after the 4 recap episodes ('Memories'), which I skipped, this was only a 21 episode season, and it also leaves things mid-fight by the time credits roll around and we're left waiting for the show's eighth and final season, which as far as I'm concerned should be outlawed. It feels like absolutely no-one is talking about it, and I get it, I think S4 and S5 were messy and/or weak adaptations of the manga which saw many people cool off on My Hero, but damn it if the show hasn't seriously returned to form between S6 and S7. I'm left chomping at the bit for S8. This season felt like the first to be all killer, no filler, and it was so much better for it. One particular character/group arc, my favourites in MHA, had their arc come to a head – and it was damn near perfect. If you've been keeping up with My Hero, or you're a bit behind, or hell you haven't even started it yet, there's an earned intensity after six seasons leading up to this one which I think makes it more than worth checking out.

Julius Posted 8 hours ago Posted 8 hours ago First trailer for My Hero Academia: Vigilantes, which will be airing from April 2025. I actually read through the first few volumes of this way back when I started to get into MHA, and it was decent. It ran concurrent to the main series so I do think it's a little bit odd to start My Hero spin-offs with this; think I'd much rather skip to a prequel show about All-Might, if I'm being honest Which has got to be inevitable... right? 1

Oh, this is cool! I read this Manga up until the end of its... first "Season", let's say. I definitely liked to see a microcosm of the wider MHA world, featuring a college student as the protagonist (IMO, what Deku should've been as well). I do remember it getting surprisingly dark at times as well. I remember one of my peeves with it was with quirk creativity. A lot of characters-of-the-week have quirks that are just "turns into an animal/monster", or a variant of super strength. Or both. But overall, fun romp. I'm glad to see it adapted! 1
