To be fair Horikoshi grew up reading Naruto and One Piece. Just like how mangaka before him grew up with dragonball. Still with every similarity bakugo shares with sasuke there are many differences. Bakugo so far has been handled mush better then sasuke. Let's see how this plays out.

Mangaka is secretly amazing at drawing scary ass faces. Remember Shigarasaki's reveal? God that was creepy.
Also the Naruto comparisons really do a disservice to the quality of this manga

Yeah, Bakugou's definitely got Sasuke-esque elements, but he's a much more entertaining take on the tropes in question. I also really doubt that he's going to accept the offer.
She needs to get the blood in her mouth, hence the term "kiss kiss". The machine she uses cuts the process in half. The knifes and syringes are connected to the pump on her back which then is pumped to the mask on her mouth.

Another great Bakugou (Tokyo Ghoul character designer Kazuhiro Miwa)
I don't know if the knife is, but the idea seems to be she jams the machine's stinger into a wound to try and extract as much blood as possible without necessarily having to create a massive wound.
I have to say it's kind of a failing on the mangaka's part that the action scenes are as hard to follow as they are. I don't think he's really great at drawing the eye to specific areas necessarily unless they take up the entire panel. I had to reread the bit where Yandere-chan stabs Uravity like three times before I noticed what the focus of the panel was supposed to be.
Legit Hype man. The art and animation style looks like a healthy mix between modern anime and the manga original style, so I think we are in good hands.

It looks good, but I'd be lying if I said it isn't somewhat disappointing compared to the Mob Psycho 100 PV

That looked good. It only had scenes of the first episode tho, wanna see more.
Also Yuuki Hayashi confirmed as the composer.
Mob is mob. As long as Hero Academia isn't a complete fuckup and there's sufficient sakuga for the hype moments i'm happy.

I don't really remember exactly but the tournament came after training with the midget dude, right? If so like another gaffer said I think they will end it after the training and the tournament will be their thing to make people come back and watch again

Nah, Gran Torino was after the tournament. That went straight into Stain.

Just 5 weeks!
Gotta end on Midoriya showing his abilities to his class.

Shouldnt it end before they go on this summer training trip?
Yea of course. I think everyone is discussing if it should be after fighting stain or before
+1 after.
End the season with showing all those new villains who were inspired by Stain. Make the people know that Stain was just the catalyst for something bigger.
That'll be a nice hook for the second season.

I think that might have just been an early protype of muscle fibers guy
Kind of what I was thinking.

Could be.
I'd like to think he's still out there somewhere though. Muscle fibers was cool, but I think I prefer turtle guy's design 'cause he reminds me a little of Killer Croc.

The PV was really great, I hope the series has a definitive OP like early Naruto and Bleach did. I think they translated Horikoshi's style pretty well. I'm on the edge of my seat waiting for Deku and Bakugou figures to go on preorder. I need Uraraka
Exactly what I had in my mind.
I'm pretty sure if MHA were not based on a manga, that moment would leave fans speculating for weeks. And since the anime is there to advertise the manga, it'll make people curious enough to go and buy the volumes just to see what's the deal with them.
It's the perfect moment to end a season, not only in terms of story-telling, but also from a business point of view.
She's always used four fingers.
That's exactly where I expect it to end. Right after a big fight, All for One reveal, and new villains tease.
I might check my books and see if that's always been consistent throughout.
Pretty good eye for detail
Hands McGee's done the same!

So did Horikoshi forget to draw Tokoyami or was he captured with Bakugou?

The magician has 2 small orbs in his hands so i assume both Bakugou and Tokoyami are inside them.

That actually looks great. I'm there day zero. I can't wait to see Stain animated.

Todoroki you had a great suggest but you failed to protect him, why
First half was alright second half was kind of dull as the girls didnt do anything cool like the boys did. Like (best panel)

The "so you like a boy" speech escalated fast.
