    Trying to enjoy the new BNHA episodes and "dark" Deku being cool but the dialogue is so handfisted. They're trying too hard to be marvel and they do too much exposition in the script.

    Edit: This storyline and the OP song makes me think they're attempting to pull off a Naruto type emotional arc.

    Donā€™t watch marvel. I think itā€™s cool as is, wym specifically?

    For BHMA standards this plot is very ambitious don't get me wrong but something doesn't really hit for me

    Like Deku suddenly being this dark badass hero in the shadows and the top 3 helping him while society is turning against super heroes, is a very dramatic Marvel type plot, it reminds me of spider-man plots a little and some of the post-endgame marvel stuff

    They should've either built up to it or have something actually happen to Deku to cause character development

    In Spider-Man stories, Spider-Man is both a hero and a likable awkward teenager, part of his popularity is the combination of action and slice of life plots which have been in BNHA since the beginning.

    But part of Spider-Man's story is tragedy, he has to hide his identity to protect his loved ones. Which is what they're trying to do with Deku now but it's not convincing. It's predictable he'll get back with the A1 class very soon so what's the point, unless it develops him as a character, which hasn't happened a lot.

    Also the "blackwhip" really reminds me of Spider-Man's webs.

    The society turning against superheroes reminds me of Endgame and post-Endgame because of the heroes losing to Thanos and society blaming them and distrusting them, same story, and you have rogue groups who oppose super heroes like in Falcon and the Winter Soldier.

    The Todoroki family story is also tropey (I didn't expect Dabi to be Endevour's son but a villain secretly being a hero's son and vice versa is not a surprising twist), that being said as far as trying to humanize these characters and make us root for them it worked for me and by far the best story arc here.

    Also not Marvel but the One for All past heroes sequences remind me of Avatar, but that's actually cool.

    To be fair, I do think the city getting destroyed & the heroā€™s essentially losing (by a long shot) is enough for Midorya to change in some way. That and One For Allā€™s new powers ofc

    But I respect what you saying, you could be 200% right I donā€™t watch marvel stuff

    Melancholy of suzumiya haruhi is really fire. Thought they were going to go down the chunibyo route but glad to see a different take. They do a good job jumping from a hilarious moments into something serious the next scene.

    Bro for some reason I just canā€™t stand Hachi and her decision making. So easily swayed but thatā€™s what makes her a good character for this series. @op

  • Feb 20, 2023

    Look at Hachi switch teams in the blink of an eye. You canā€™t buy loyalty these days. At this point Iā€™m just venting.

    It would be interesting if another character changed to mirror Deku and their stories collided somehow

    Yeah, she's lost essentially looking for something always bigger.

    Kinda like someone who stands for nothing always falls for something? She's too niave and has to depend on everyone else to build her defenses and decision making around her.
