The opening I'll agree with (full version is especially bad) but the ending? Are you insane? It's the best! I have doubts the new one will take it down.

It was ok first few times, now its just annoying. First one with the notebook is the better song

That aside, I enjoyed the thought put into the naming scene. Some interesting choices there, though a lot were really obvious ("Invisible Girl" - like she was ever going to pick anything else). Thinking about it, I realized I, myself, would probably be paralyzed with indecision were I forced to make a choice on the spot.

Could have been Invisigal or something, I think it would have been better to be honest. Invisible Girl is kind of boring.

Shame they didn't let Ashida keep the name Alien Queen, I liked it and it seemed accurate.

Xenopink for Ashido, whenever I hear Pinky I think of Pinky and the Brain.

Also Mineta should have chosen the Grapist.
 
I've been watching the first season of this anime and ilterally everything they reference that we JUST SAW is accompanied by a speech and a flashback of the scene they reference. Even when it was at the beginning of the episode. Is there a name for this? I find it incredibly annoying and frankly, I don't know if I'll watch the second season...

Electricity powers are ranked very high on the quirk lottery.

Yep, very versatile and strong. Even back in the first season when the villains attacked Jiro tried to goad the villain by mentioning how he was was wasting a great quirk by being a simple street thug.
Plus, he makes for a great living stun grenade, excellent for taking care of multiple villains without killing them. Can charge phones in a pinch, too.

I believe the name for it is "saving money by recycling animation".

The second season is much better about this (first episode aside)

Besides the first episode, the second season thankfully does that way less.

Episode was good. Though it did seem like some characters (Aizawa) were lacking definition from the art department. Looked kind of rough every close up on him.

This episode is the foundation for a lot of the hype stuff that is coming up.

Finally, the current op and ed have by far been the weakest

S2 OP 1 is God tier.

Boku no Hero is so light on this compared to every other shonen anime. S2 has a moment in which all of those flashbacks are overlapping with each other in quick succession. Usually they'd just be spread out as evenly as possible.

IIRC it was outsourced like episode 6.

"God tier"? I mean, it's a pretty good opening that fits well with the sports festival arc, but all in all it's very standard as far as shounen anime openings go, nothing particularly special about it IMO.

No i'm with you, I don't really like it either

Then again, i'm against the concept of "cute girls doing cute thing" EDs in a shonen because it comes across as patronizing but i'm a weirdo so

I dunno if patronizing is how I'd describe it, but I feel similarly meh about it whenever I see it. Like oh, here's all the female characters you wish had more screentime :(
 
The song I want most is the song that plays when Deku breaks Todoroki's guard with OFA during the cavalry battle.

Also Alien Queen was such a great name I'm upset she couldn't use it.

I don't think it's on the already released OST from the first season, they might (hopefully) release another one.

but yeah i can't wait to hear the full track. The music in this show is just so damn good.

? Your link doesn't have a timestamp, my link is at 0:27 because I specifically want the track with the little electronic beat
