Boku no Hero Academia 6th Season

With Tomura Shigaraki at its helm, the former Liberation Army is now known as the Paranormal Liberation Front. This organized criminal group poses an immense threat to the Hero Association, not only because of its sheer size and strength, but also the overpowering quirks of Jin "Twice" Bubaigawara and Gigantomachia.

As new intel from the covert hero Keigo "Hawks" Takami confirms that Shigaraki is nowhere to be seen, the Hero Association decides to strike the enemy headquarters with a surprise attack using the entirety of its assets—and the UA students find themselves on the battlefield once again. As the fight rages on, the unsuspecting villains must regroup and push back, but the brave heroes are determined to eradicate every last one of them.

This season of MHA is one of the best. With very little filler and very intentional thrilling sequences, this anime is the epitome of shonen. The character development of all characters really gets put to the test in this season, and all of the positives and negatives that occur feel really heavy and important. Usually, it's easy to like other characters besides the main character in any anime, and that's especially true of MHA, but in this season, Deku really shines. That's not to say the cohesiveness of Class 1-A isn't also put on display! This season really has everything covered!

The writers of this show ... do a very good job at humanizing the villains, making much of the conflicts in this series very stressful. It also becomes clear in this season (if it wasn't clear before) that this series takes place in a dark and scary world, not a happy and positive one. It's a dark and gritty anime that really displays that David and Goliath type of victory.

Mixed Feelings

This and the previous season are rather difficult for me to rate, mainly because I find myself comparing the experiences with those I've had reading the manga. Previous seasons had a bit of that too, but these seasons have been... different. S5 was a real down point for the series, since it excluded a lot of what made the manga great and just lacked the visual punch of the manga. For all that this series gets treated as basic bitch shonen, the manga can sometimes bleed into the horrific with some absolutely terrifying panels that have yet to be replicated in the series, even going ... back to the early seasons. Part of that is the detail that the mangaka put into those panels, part of it is that the anime is aiming to bring in younger audiences, but another part is the that it's pretty clear that Bones has not been putting their A-game into this series. They can produce amazing content, and, when it finishes this week, I'll be talking about one of those series, but they clearly took their attention off of this series for a good while, especially in S5.

That's a long walk to talking about this season, which I liked quite a bit more than S5. Considering the content in this season, it should be my favorite (was going to say that about S5 too - the My Villain Academia Arc is so damn good in the manga), but still loses out to S2 for me. The Paranormal Liberation War featured some awesome stuff and I was happy to see that they didn't leave out large swaths of it, though its most pivotal scenes lacked the punch of the manga panels. Still, the whole dynamic of the series was flipped on its head in pretty spectacular fashion. The Dark Hero arc that followed was much better from a visual perspective, and while it's not as interesting on the whole, I think its presentation cements it as one of the better arcs in the anime.

All that is to say that this season was worth the watch, even if I was hoping for better in some aspects.

This is not the same anime from season one. It's almost as like they didn't know how to end it so decided to combine two seperate ideas: one which I'm sure your familiar with: hero school. Learning to use your powers and overcoming obstacles. As well as something more sinister and mature. A world that's in constant danger that tackles psychological topics. A world where the characters go through life and death situations only to end up losing, again and again.

It's almost as if now Izuku knew how to use his quirks they didn't know how to challenge him and still keep it interesting. They ... can't keep attacking UA, since they would have to get higher security to make it somewhat reasonable. They can't send them outside of school every single episode, and they already tackled more of the major Japanese school events as well as holidays. So the only choice seemed to be the following three options:

Summer break and starting 2A

Filler surrounding some sort of rescue mission

No school, villian focused, something.

I doubt that they would have done the first option, as the Christmas bit seemed to fufill any spot for that. And I don't think they could have managed a full summer break, with more of a slow-paced environment. Which MHA is not.

Now the second one I still didn't think would happen. Eri arc happened recently, and I don't think they could label their new season as a druggie arc. Plus how could they use a child for something like that? They can't keep them on another hero sidekick assignment?

Now the third one I originally thought about as something in an alternate reality. They have to create action, so they focus more on the villains level them up somehow or get a character who can add a severe advantage onto their side. And they can't break into UA without it being severely questionable on how? this is like the best hero school in japan? So they would have to create a situation thats enough action without them being in school. And what is that? Something.

But the problem with the third one is that it just doesn't seem like it belongs with the story majorly. They shouted at it in season 5 but I chose to ignore it. (oops) And I hoped that they weren't going to completely derail from the starting idea.

If your here because you liked season 1 and the more wholesome, "I can accomplish my dreams," this is not it. And basically in conclusion: stop at season four, five at most, or go into six without the expectation of my hero ACADEMIA.
