Yeah, Weekly Shonen Jump is the magazine where My Hero Academia and several other series like One Piece (and formerly Naruto) run. It's published by Shueisha (or owned by anyways).

Yes, it is the publisher. Imagine if, instead of the individual series of western comics, with Superman, Batman, the Flash, etc, they were instead published all together in a single magazine, every week, called 'DC Comics'. That is Weekly Shonen Jump.
Really liked the new girl.
Since some have already answered you, I suggest checking out Bakuman which is about making a shonen manga in Shonen Jump, which is a manga published by Shonen Jump.

Agreed. One of the highlights of the spin-off. BTW how many years before the main series is the Vigilante saga?

That anime preview was the worst preview of all time.
Seriously. It's not even a subtle hint. It's straight up spoiling the entire 'oh shit' moment.

Yeah seriously like WTF was that

The title should have been:
Encounter: An Interview With Midoriya
And the preview should have been the aftermath of the exams and the mall trip/Dabi and Toga, that's it, nothing more.

Wowowowowowow! Fucking botched! Who thought that was a good idea? Wjo thought they needed to build up hype for the end? Did they think no one would watch without a gotchya???
One year. I doubt they will skip the anime next year and the cam+rescue arcs would only nee just one cour so even if it isn't 25 spisodes again we are safe.

I liked Dabi's VA.
We really need more Dabi, too much Toga and Twice nowadays.

And we need a Dabi-led mutiny because Shigaraki is useless.

I'm a very big fan of the surprise of that scene.
It really spoils that scene.

I would be absolutely floored if that was a coincidence.
Someone pointed this out and I thought it was very clever and rather heartbreaking.
Eris body is covering all of the 0s of the 1000000 in his costume, which is supposed to represent his intention of being a hero who would save millions of people. The only number thats clearly visible is the 1.
Mirio wanted to save millions, but in the end he was only able to save one.

I dont know, you really think he has done nothing to save anyone else out of all his time at being at school? Id be honestly shocked if he was part of the big 3 and this was the only thing he accomplished.
Thematically.

I think saving that Eri could possibly have saved millions. If this act stops the quirk drug from being more circulated then Miro would have saved millions by sacrificing himself.

...I can't remember either, so if it hadn't come up, can you just imagine Mirio happily saying to the others it was okay since he'd just get better after a few days, just like Suneater.
And then the awkward silence.

Honestly, Mirio is like the only good thing in this arc for me (besides Toga of course), and all this talk about it only proves the point. He was too pure for this world ;_;
Mirio is basically going to become what Deku was in the one shot

Rappa's good though, and so was that fight before the obnoxious flashback.
FlowersisBritish

I actually think Rappa is the most overratted character I've seen in awhile. I dont get why people like him. He's a battle crazy guy with the most boring quirk imaginable, he punches real good. Good for him I guess?
Id rather have a proper fight with guy who made his opponents drunk.
Well, stop getting banned then

Korean scans are out. Hopefully English translation soon.
Welcome back honey. Just back since last week too. We have to watch out.

The better of the two fantranslators just announced that they will not be translating My Hero Academia anymore in favor of translating the side material that still hasn't been translated.
Thanks lol
Damn. Seeing that discussion on the Season 2 topic about J-Deku(Japanese) been suicidal, and E-Deku(English) been a better one because he looks inspiring; is nonsense.
Deku was broken at the beginning. He was bullied, told to kill himself by his "friend" and have no quirk. Nothing to have him build any confidence. Even if someone have a non-hero-fitting quirk, it would be better then what Midorya have.
He looked at heroes as gods whom he couldn't get closer, and even more at All Mighty. He was delusional. He wanted to become a hero, or something closer to it. And he never showed confidence in himself earlier, and he shouldn't. Even All Mighty saw him as a fanboy, until he showed his inner hero. That was the definitive moment. That is who Midorya is. Someone that have the spirit of a hero, but is beginning. Someone that is a level 1 while the rest is level 50. Someone that is growing from the scratch to become the greatest hero.
Now, with Lemillion going down, he will have another wall to come across. Lemillion was not only some senior he admired. He someone whom Midorya thought was best fitting to have OFA. Someone that trained to become a hero with a difficult quirk and became one. A powerful one.
When someone talks about Midorya been a generic character, only a cry baby, or a character without depth; it really pisses me off.
PS: I know he cries a lot, but he also cry while smiling at the face of fear.
Edit: Sorry for any/many mistakes. English is not my first language.

To clarify that statement, by 'E-Deku' you mean...?
E-Deku is English Deku. The DUB version. They said the J-Deku(Japanese) seemed suicidal...
Edited my first post to make it clear.
