It hasn’t gotten me hyped yet, but I think it’s passable. At least it wasn’t a recap episode or useless filler. I do wonder how they’re going to animate this while they’re on the same arc as the manga right now. Will they have to delay airing episodes and wait for the manga to end? Or will they do a fullmetal alchemist (before brotherhood) and give us a completely different ending to the manga?

Um... so they established that Star can only have two rules in place at once and one in always on herself - so how exactly is she maintaining her Air Giant AND creating the Laser Spear at the same time at the end of the episode?

The episode is nice, this season started with a bang.

The opening is pretty shitty though, the visuals are nice but the song is pretty bad, and the ending is meh, the opening and ending are disappointing.

MyHeroAcademia a very interesting Season 7 premiere
I felt some scenes were felt a bit lacking
Always had issue with star's quirk
And the hoops n jumps gone to explained what works and what doesn't
Can't believe star's backstory is already caught up in 1 episode
Just like the lacking of animation, I was also surprised by sometimes a lot of it in the premiere ep
I was really disappointed with Star's debut Attack.
Looked so cool in manga
This show became Kaiju Battle for a min lol
Feels like star will have lesser eps than i predict
Op n End was ok
The best part of the episode for me was music "Todoroki's counterattack" from World Heroes Movie played for Star and Stripe. That's a pretty good theme and worked so well.
@akano bro the animation was good more focused on art because this ep focused more on dialogue & star backstory was short what do you expect?? It wasn’t even panel in manga also this fight was basically 5 chapters there’s no way you thought this would extend for 3-4 eps they even added more dialogue scenes with crew the fight look exactly like manga lol there’s no way you expected bunch action lol almost everyone knew it mostly contained dialogue based on what happened in manga it didn’t get insane till climax basically this isn’t very long fight mostly dialogue (the fight was realistically 1.5 chapters long) 😭

Loved the hints of seeing Hagakure being visible, and the hint of Shouji's backstory, which I've managed to avoid spoilers of, yay.

Loved how much Bakugou has grown up, just from the little clips we saw. (Actually, that was probably in the last ep of Memories, wasn't it? I just watched them back to back.) He's still got his rough personality, but now it's almost an Aizawa-style tough love mentoring as he keeps Deku focused and out of his own head while they train.

Seems from Memories and the OP/ED like this season is gonna have a strong focus on Deku, Bakugou, Shouto and Ochako, along with their villain counterparts.

Star and Stripe has a great quirk, and baby Cassie was adorable. Not so much a fan of the different art style they used for her, though. It just seems like she's gonna be a one-off fodder character All-for-Shigaraki can focus on for a little while so we can see Class 1-A doing other stuff than facing him? Honestly, I don't know anything about her arc, but I'm already kinda hoping they get through it fast and move on to the traitor arc.

I like the character so I'll have her as my pfp. Doesn't mean I still play the game. And looks like you don't know how to read cause which manga did I insult to make you mad?

This is not the worst arc ever written. You know seeing how much you hate this arc really makes me wonder why you're watching it. Normally if someone hated a manga arc they wouldn't bother watching it

ah yes, all the power that this American girl has, plus missiles, lasers and anything we can imagine, and Shigaraki just withstands it all, EASY LOL

as much as BNHA is a fun anime to watch, anything related to this Shigaraki guy is stupid as hell, Jesus Christ
and to think they didn't just kill him properly before he awakened ... meh
reminds me that i was thinking about it recently, how villains in this anime can kill people, but if heroes kill a villain, they actually have to do public apologies and shit like that lol

that being said... Star is a super cool chara and getting to see the classmates at school again was great

Strong start! But its obvious Tomura is not going to die here, even though that would be cool in a way.

Him beeing able to ignore Stars quirk effect because of the naming BS is ass.. but I guess this has been set up properly. I just think any psychopath beeing able to ignore the quirk because they might not identify with their names is.. odd.

No US super space laser? Just some new ICBMs? Disappointing to be honest!

Star is surprisingly cool.

So Horikoshi literally gave America's best hero, who symbolizes the USA, the power to change the essence of things through verbal commands? Lol, it's like he intentionally wanted to make it sarcastic with political overtones. Even portraying her as a fearless hunk woman who willfully intervenes in conflicts in other countries. But jokes and conspiracy theories aside, at least the first episode looks epic enough to increase the degree of epicness and prepare for the final fateful decisions for the entire story.

The actual season 7 starts (I skipped the recap, lol)

I was looking forward to seeing the "America Hero" being extra ( \ Y / ) and Stripes back at the end of season 6.

Tho I just realized... she's a literal female All-Might... they have very similar appearance features and styles.

If you were to say All Might got genderbend by someone's Quirk, I might have actually believe it.

But turns out Stars based her looks on All-Might, Stars used to be a normal glasses girl... her hair wasn't even blonde, lol.

.

Also... yea... that "batmobile"... LOOOL (well, it's not that surprising, I mean.. All Might is pretty much "Hulk"... he transforms and do smashes...)

Since "Super Heroes" did technically get popularized by DC and Marvel series. (so hero series always will reference something from them)

.

Star's quirk is very interesting, but it really only works on non-living objects or to be exact, non-sentient beings that can't perceive their "identity". (so sentient beings can counter her quirk by just not thinking their "name" is being called)

Too bad she can only target 1 object, and herself at same time. Could have a lot of potential for interesting combinations. Imagine if she could combine bunch of elements or even objects to create new elements or even Gundam, LOL.

Stars can combine 2, but All-For-Tomura can combine near limitless, only restricted by the physical body.

My Hero is back for its SEVENTH season, and here we are, still going strong. We've come this far, so we might as well see it through. This was supposed to be the final season, but with the manga still ongoing, it might not be the end after all.

Seems like we're fully embracing the emo vibe. As if Eve's OP from last season wasn't emo enough, they got the MOST emo artist in Japan, TK, to do the OP. I mean, hey, I'm not complaining, it's a banger. And Omoinotake is alright, sounds like any other Omoinotake song.


Mini recap, and by mini, I mean legit only the Ochaco speech as a recap, aside. Diving right back into the action, it seems. I mean, this being the seventh season, we shouldn't need a recap anyway. Those four recap episodes before the actual season started were just another form of recapping, really. Anyway, onto the most wasted character in the history of this franchise, Stars and Stripes. To make matters worse, this fight is in the sky... and we all know the thing that plagues this show more than Shigaraki himself is that annoying blue sky they decide to use for EVERY shot. Seriously, the sky in the last episode of the last season was perfect, WHY CHANGE IT???

Whatever, man. At least they made up for it with some decent animation. Also, if it wasn’t clear already, this episode pretty much confirms that All For One's plan to give Shigaraki his quirk was never for Tomura’s benefit but to literally and figuratively use him. And this whole fight so far? This ain't a fight anymore, it's a wild LSD trip. I feel like I'm on whatever drug that makes you see giant buff women cutting through the heavens and piercing the earth with a massive laser spear.

America's going all out, even resorting to nuclear weapons... I have a sinking feeling that even this missile would barely scratch Shigaraki, if at all.

I'll give credit where it's due: this episode looked good. Although, it's typical for the first couple of episodes of each season to look good, so that's no surprise. However, this season will probably not look its best, given that, once again, a movie is coming out in the middle of the season...
@IzanaSolos I'm tired of reiterating but I'll do it again since people can't seem to understand.

The fight takes place in the day, so the sky is blue. The sky doesn't just change based on the dramaticness of the moment you know.
