I found the heroaca ost more memorable than hq.

I just want another Hero A.

 

[GoldCrusader]

I wanted to point out how goddamn good Yuki Hayashi is at creating an epic main theme and then scaling it up to become even more epic with each successive season (fans of Haikyu!! know this well).

Main epic theme from Season 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ChCp9knOnII

Season 2 version (listen in the background): https://youtu.be/dr6vqLPeGXI?t=27s

So bless, I am ready

Oh yea that season 2 version is absolutely outstanding! SEASON 2! GIMME!
------------------------------
Horikoshi is the best! My boy Deku looking AWESOME here.

 

[Dedication Through Light]

The part when he missed the form made me chuckle for some reason. Otherwise, actually hoping Midoriya fails but ends up passing and getting to work under him just due to passion and determination and creativity.

 

[Nightbird]

The next season needs to end with chapter 57.

I remember being so damn hyped to see all those new villain designs, i bet anime-onlys will be too, especially if Bones decides to expand that last page a bit more

 

[cntr]

Season 2 will probably end with that scene, but they'll rearrange things to include a few more chapters after

 

[Dedication Through Light]

Implying its not going to be a 24+ episode anime.

 

[cntr]

I'd want them to go all the way to the Kamino Ward, but that's probably not going to happen

also announce a Toonami run of both S1 and S2, pls.

 

[OniBarubary]

Season 2 can literally only end with Stain's pronouncement. Otherwise I will burn down Japan.

 

[Ascheroth]

Do we know how long season 2 will be? I think I remember it was said to be 2 cour, but I'm not sure if that was official or just speculation.
I'm not sure if the pacing would be good spreading out ~40 chapters over ~24 episodes.

 

[cntr]

Do we know how long season 2 will be?

nobody knows

 

[OniBarubary]

57 episodes, each with a runtime of 14.9 hours.

 

[Nightbird]

I'll help you in that case lol

 

[cntr]

i hope you guys already know that season 2 will be broadcast one 5 minute episode a month in a special visual format that only allows it to be viewed on a CRT

 

[Dedication Through Light]

Its airing at a time for kids show and such, Ive never any type show be only 12/13 episodes. Time Bokan airs at its time and thats 24+ episodes, as was Ace Attorney.

well, given that the first season had the very same time slot, and was 13 episodes...

 

[Dedication Through Light]

Heroaca is changing times and stations for season 2, you missed the news? http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/dai...emia-season-2-anime-to-air-on-ntv-ytv/.110237

 

[GoldCrusader]

It does not have the same timeslot. That slot doesn't exist anymore.

I really hope it's 24 episodes...I want them to reach All Might vs AfO

That is most assuredly not happening.

 

[cntr]

oh, fair enough

still need to get a CRT for it anyway

 

[GoldCrusader]

That is most assuredly not happening.

Oni please! let me dream!

If it were 2 cour, it would reach All Might vs AfO no?

 

[mdubs]

I will love the anime all the way, but I desperately want to see All Might vs. All for One animated. Chapter 93 is a beautiful thing

 

[Philippo]

Oni please! let me dream!

If it were 2 cour, it would reach All Might vs AfO no?

I think S2 will still be 1 cour, then a two-cour S3.

S2 (13 eps): Sport festival arc / Stain arc
S3 (13 + 8-13) eps: Training camp arc / Bakugou rescue arc

I will love the anime all the way, but I desperately want to see All Might vs. All for One animated. Chapter 93 is a beautiful thing

United States of Smash is going to be Anime Scene of the Year 201X.

 

[cntr]

the Sports Festival is still the longest arc in the entire series, and it's even longer in the volume release

...though it's like 23 chapters.

 

[caliph95]

I hope the pacing improves in the anime because it felt a bit slow in the anime

 

[Newtype-001]

Need for the student vs teachers arc to get animated so we get an influx of TodoMomo & DekuChako FanArt :^)

 

[cntr]

yeah season 2 will be better at that, they'll have a better chapter:episode ratio to work with

 

[Jintor]

hope so. Eyeballing it looks good, but who knows how production actually goes.

 

[cntr]

I'm really hoping they play up the "comic book" aspect, the first season was stylistically almost boringly straight-forward. like, just use japanese and english sfx or something, man, do it like Jojo.

they better give the Stain arc some ridiculous 90s opening, too

 

[Trojita]

Need for the student vs teachers arc to get animated so we get an influx of TodoMomo

Plz no.

The internet is inundated with these pictures as is.

 

[cntr]

deku/ochako and hagakure/ojiro are the only ships that're effectively guaranteed at the moment, imo.

the rest could go either way

Is that really a thing or your hope

ok maybe "guaranteed" is going too far, but it's pretty blatant if you look at...pretty much whenever they interact.

If that is the case can i add Kirishima and Bakugo or will that be a DTL thing

 

[cntr]

that'd be great but as if Shueisha would ever let that happen

 

[caliph95]

that'd be great but as if Shueisha would ever let that happen

Somehow i doubt it will ever happen but we have positive trans characters though they were mostly side characters so one can hope

 

[Puruzi]

Kirishima seems to just be down with anyone that has some hotblood tho

 

[cntr]

yeah i'm sure Horikoshi himself would be alright with it, but Shueisha ain't that cool

Spoiler

maybe the execs will go look at Yuri on Ice and get convinced by money

 

[Nightbird]

The only ships i care about / that are relevant:

Deku/Ochako
Hagakure/Ojiro
Momo/Todoroki
Mineta/his Hand

 

[cntr]

you know how Horikoshi does this thing where he sets up a really trope-y obvious cliche and then goes "nope!", like when Bakugou got kidnapped but didn't betray anybody

Todoroki/Momo and Jirou/Kaminari feel exactly like that, something cliche that's being set up to not happen

could go either way tho, but I'm not putting my money on them just yet.

 

[Newtype-001]

todo & momo went on a date in that drama cd or LN thing itsHappening.gif

Jirou and Kaminari seems more like friends tbh. Though i can't wait Momo to get with i don't know mineta and/or Jirou and watch the disappointed shippers.

Well damn really

 

[cntr]

todo & momo went on a date in that drama cd or LN thing itsHappening.gif

wait, really?

e: looked it up, and huh.

I guess that's happening, then

 

[Puruzi]

Deku and Ochako is the only one that needs to happen.

Spoiler

I'm also completely down for Deku+Toga because Toga's the greatest.

I can get behind it, but did not expect it to be confirmed so early

nice

 

[Trojita]

Todoroki: Your yukata has a nice smell. (Here Todoroki says it neutrally like ‘your yukata has a smell’ but he implies that it’s a nice smell)

Yaoyorozu: OH…thank you very much! From looking at the other girls’ yukata, I decide to make one myself.

Mistranslation or is Todoroki a pervert?

 

[caliph95]

Mistranslation or is Todoroki a pervert?

He's too Todoroki to be a pervert i assume it's a sincere comment.

But i would like to assume he's a huge pervert just hides it really well.

 

[cntr]

Mistranslation or is Todoroki a pervert?

I actually know this one because I've seen it mentioned as a common mistake

the word for "to look nice (in clothing)" is pronounced almost the same as the more common word for "to smell", and the translator got it wrong
