how can you say keeping a good pace with 51 chapters... If anything shows a good pace is longevity. You can't talk about pace with... 1 arc and a half? I feel it's too early to judge that. What you're probably liking is the novelty of the manga itself.

Really good cover!
Someone is getting top placing on the popularity context.
One Piece is pretty formulaic too. There are plenty of arcs that follow a similar pattern;
1. Arrive to awesome new island.
2. Meet potential new crew member/ally.
3. Get tangled up in some conspiracy/major event.
4. Loads of running.
5. Strawhats VS the arc's villains, often one-on-one.
6. Sad flashback.
7. Everyone cheers for Luffy as he beats the boss with a new attack.
8. Party!
That being said, OP still has excellent world-building and some truly great arcs (Water 7, Impel Down/Marineford) that will be hard for MHA to top.
Anyways, character poll:
1. Deku
2. Bakugou
3. Uraraka
4. All Might
5. Todoroki

Archipelago is GOAT, Marine Ford, W7 & Arlong Arc are also pretty incredible though.

New chapter was pretty good. I liked how they were able to present Stain as a match for Todoroki without getting too out-there, and his power is interesting. I'm glad that there's so much teamwork in this series, compared to the typical shonen.

Omg finally the arc gets good, Todoroki ftw, I thought the writer would stay generic and have Midoriya defeat the hero killer.

This comic is so good so far. Hope it keeps it up!

Great chapter. Todoroki kinda reminds me of Zuko from Avatar:TLA (the one and only GOAT)

I feel like this chapter had enough content to fill 4 whole chapters with in any other manga!

Goddamn, one hell of a chapter. Stain is an excellent villain.
I was thinking the same thing. It certainly felt much longer than what it actually is. Great chapter.

Great pacing, Stain doesn't collapse and become a pushover after his quirk is discovered, and Deku putting that intellect to work. Great chapter.

How often do you find a manga where blood types actually mean anything?
Serious question, I'm a manga pleb so I wouldn't know.

It was a pretty big plot point in One Piece when a few characters needed blood transfusions.

Some A+ art right there. Really great starting arc for the manga.
Blood types are used to decide the general personality of the characters. Just search for character profiles in any japanese media and bloody types will be there.How often do you find a manga where blood types actually mean anything?

Blood types are kind of like horoscopes in Japanese culture.
You can preorder them but I didn't know you can preorder volume 2.

I just started reading this, and fuck me I want the main character to accomplish his dreams so badly. The art is really quality too.
Welcome aboard x).
This manga is going to just keep on growing, just don´t give the anime to toei.
Give to Trigger or Madhouse.

Madhouse or Production IG and i am a happy camper
I'm interested with checking out this series, given the positive response from most of the posters here. I especially like the design of the cute girl with the frog/toad super abilities.
Should I read all of the chapters, or are there more essential stories that should get me up to speed?
