nicomaine said: ahhh, I kept rooting for Deku for this episode for some reason. and All Might's true form is a surprise. Good thing he had a change of heart in the last scene. and I felt some feels. 5/5 Cannot wait for the legendary "Training" like other Shounen |
GoldenDevilGamer said: SansrivaaL said: Well the series does get better and better. It really depends on if you like an underdog's story with strategic fights.A lot of you seems to love this episode with some even crying, but here I am still not amused and entertained... wth is going on, am I missing something? or maybe this franchise just doesnt go well with me. I hope the 3rd ep delivers cause if not Im gonna have to pass. Maybe this, tho I like strategic fights but the underdog type MC's probably doest go well with me. |

| "This is the story of how I became the greatest hero" Well daaaamn, Deku. |
| All Might without his ability is a worm xDD ahahaha but still he is doing always good things, but that injury is kinda bad and it seems that he is dying? Since in the preview of the next episode, he said that he will give his ability to Izuku... Why does this always happens? 1 more week so i can see a new episode :/ Sad life xD Although this was a great episode! Izuku can train now to be a hero too! Can't wait for next week. |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| why Katsuki calls Izuku "Deku" and will Izuku get a hero power?? |
 |
| Seriously, been years since I felt what I'm feeling right now after watching this episode and it was during the beginning of TTGL. Awesome, really. |
| I enjoyed the episode. Got a bit teary eyed near the end there. I know only 2 episodes are out so far but I'm really starting to get into this. I haven't felt this way for a battle shounen in a long time. I kinda want to just go start reading the manga, but I'll force myself to wait until the anime ends. |

michaelh19 said: why Katsuki calls Izuku "Deku" Deku is an alternate reading of his name and also basically means "dork" or "nerd" |
| I hope this premise isn't serious: "In a profession that requires LITERAL SUPER POWERS, you can succeed too!!... even though you don't meet the requirements of having LITERAL SUPER POWERS." |
| Don't forget. Always, somewhere, someone is fighting for you. As long as you remember her, you are not alone. |
| Wowzers. Another phenomenal episode of Weak Crying Boy - The Animation I rate this episode crying/10 This show is already up for the "best crying scenes" award when AOTS time comes. Cant wait to see how much crying there will be next week! |
| It seems they're planning to make a second season, at least this is what I understand from relatively slow pacing. If there's no such thing I imagine show is going to end at the beginning of some dumb tournament. |
Duderman said: Moshimander said: A very good episode once again, I still felt like it might've been better to squeeze the first two episodes into one. The pacing's kinda slow compared to the manga... I really disagree. shoving 50 pages of (dense) content into twenty minutes would have been terrible. The introduction needed to be a detailed as possible so viewers completely understand deku and the world he is in. Now that the intro is done they can start speeding up the pace now. I see your point, but they could've made the first episode extra long or split it in two and release them both at the same time, like Re:Zero did. To me, taking two weeks just to introduce Deku and All Might is a bit too much. It would've been fine if there were gonna be 20+ episodes, but there's only 13. Hope they indeed pick up the pace soon. |
| 1 Chapter in 2 episodes. Haven't read the manga but that's One Piece tier level adaptation lol. It was a slow chapter, but... It was better than episode 2. I'm still looking for the 'Wow' factor for this show. Not seeing it at all. |

| I think this show is pretty good so far, I wasn't sure about it at first as shounens usally tend to be mediocre or bad. |
| Didn't like the first episode that much at all but this episode managed to make me start to slowly like this show. It was a great episode tbh. The ost is fantastic as well, and I like the ending scene with All Might. |
| MANLY FANGRIL TEARS xD It's like naruto all over again lol This ep was good. I wanted to see the power-up moment but I guess not yet. Hope we get to see it on ep 3! |
   |
| I haven't been moved by an anime in a while, but that last scene really got to me. The OST is doing some wonderful work. Can't wait to see more of this show! |
| A very cliche debut of the MC in a crisis situation - nothing new to see there. Pretty generic in how the bullying is resolved and main character meeting important people. Yet why the hell am I crying/grinning like an idiot by the second episode!? The music (OMG THE OST), action and everything just draws you in so well, I can't help but cheer on our MC. The last scene where he clutches his heart was a killer! It really boils down to execution in the end. I love how Deku charged out there. Don't stand by waiting for a hero, be the hero Deku! |
| It's been a while since I have seen a Bones series I was impressed with. I have to say I thought I would be more critical of this show since it was so hyped. However I am really enjoying it. I feel invested in Deku so the development seems pretty good. Overall I could easily see this series being at least an 8 for me if it continues to at least be the quality shown so far. Pacing seems fine. How many chapters a show covers doesn't always equate to how good or bad pacing is. I think it would be much worse if they were trying to fit too much in unnecessarily. |

| Unlike the first episode this one conveyed everything from the manga perfectly - 10/10 |

Qubyte said: "You looked like you were asking for help..." I cried like a lil' bitch. Me too :( At first I questioned Dekus decision to run out and thought "wtf is he doing" and then he said that and it just hit home pretty hard. All Might finally gearing up after he heard that as well only made that scene hit harder. What a fantastic episode though. I'm a sucker for the underdog stories and while episode 1 was a little weak bit showed potential, episode 2 completely makes this look like AOTS for me. I didn't expect All Might to be playing such a large role as well which came as a huge surprise. |

| Midoriya getting the real talk from slim All Might. Kacchan has held on well, Midoriya goes to rescue him YOO All Might!! Just noticed it now, the screen gets dark in action scenes. Doesn't really bother me though. You can become a hero, only 2 episodes in but very nice character development, don't forget your dream. Story of how he became the greatest hero, I'm waiting for the next episode! He'll inherit All Might's quirk, let's see how this goes. 3.5/5 |
 |
| The end of the episode made this feel like it would be episode 1. I can see how poeple can love this, if they are interested in Shounen. For others it may be not be the best anime of the season. Im looking forward if this anime can impress a Shounen-disliker like me, lol. |

| This episode made my rating go from 4 to 6. Hopefully deku becomes useful soon, I find him very uninteresting atm. |
 |
| Yeah definitely better than last week's average as hell episode. I like. |
 |
| I don't know why but I'm just in love with that show! It's not a masterpiece but it's refreshing! It's the first time I get so attached to "normal" main character. |
   |
| So simple, and so effective. Underdog stories are the best. Mad props to Hayashi Yuuki tho, the soundtrack was perfect.  |
| Wow that was interesting. I'll be interested in how he gets into the academy. |
| This was terrible. Sorry not sorry, but everything is just awful. The MC is a foolish powerless brat, All Might and his design is just a joke, Fire Kid apparantly can't do jack-squat, heroes having to wait for a better hero, like come on?! What was I supposed to enjoy?? The fact that the MC is probably going to be a sort of order-giving team leader to make up for his teammates weaknesses against every particular enemy? 2/10 (+2 for the OP) Dropped. |

| Sup... |
| Hayashi Yuuki delivers with the OST! Knew it was gonna good, but the timing of the OSTs was spot on! Loving the adaptation so far. ^^ |

It's nice how you dropped it based on blind assumptions, glad you dropped it though, future episode discussions with less posts like these sounds good to me |
| Liked this episode a lot more than the first one! Looks like Deku is set to become really strong after all. Kitoge said: Same here.Wow that was interesting. I'll be interested in how he gets into the academy. |
 |
| Deku's body started running towards Bakugou and goosebumps started running through my whole body ! And that short trip to feeladelphia while Deku was crying. I was almost in tears =') |
 |
| That was really enjoyable. All Might's "Detroit Smash" was epic as fuck. |
 |
| The first episode didn't really do anything for me, but this one was actually very enjoyable. The beginning already intrigued me with the talk about what happened to All Might 5 years ago and the final scene sealed the deal. Excited to see where it's gonna go next. One thing to note is that the music composer is doing (yet again) an amazing work, the ost makes every scene much more powerful. |
| 5 main aspects I base my ratings on: 1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it? 2. Is it better than Breaking Bad? 3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it? 4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL? 5. Is it actually good? Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant... |

I don't mind people having criticism for the series... as long as it's actually valid. Some complaints are based on blind predictions... and some could be solved by actually reading the subtitles. The cringe is strong here. |
