Spoilers: later in the story, Japan's greatest hero loses his powers. The author doesn't need to dive deep on every region in Japan or every country in the world but he can't even expand on the school that's the story's main environment and is also apparently a big deal within it's world?Īnd because not much is known or seen about the world, it doesn't seem like anything that happens actually matters. I can't even be optimistic about it ever being explored in the future because U.A., which has been the only setting of importance in this manga so far, is barely expanded on as well. High School and Shiketsu High, the latter is by name only as it hasn't been touched on at all. I can only think of two locals, that being U.A. Even then, we simply just don't know much about its world as a whole at all, and as such, this manga has one of the most vapid and shallow settings I have ever come across within the medium. Only significant change is that being a superhero is now an occupation, other than that, the world is still so “normal”. Speaking on the world first, 80% of the population has superpowers (They call them 'quirks') and yet, such a phenomenon doesn't seem to have effected the world of MHA much.

The reason why I specifically chose the Pokemon series even though a lot of stories tend to have a set structure, is because no matter what events occurs, things always returns to the “status quo” with little to no impact on the world or the characters. High School, in order to become the greatest superhero, each arc starts to follow a pattern of Deku going to school, learning a new technique or gaining a new equipment, taking part in a test/exam with little to no consequences, a villain appears, a villain’s arrested, Deku goes back to school, learns a new technique, and well, you know the rest. In My Hero Academia's case, once Deku is accepted into U.A. In every Pokemon saga prior to Sun & Moon, Ash will travel to a new region, run into some girl that decides to travel with him, meet a new rival that kicks his ass in almost if not all their encounters, gather all the badges in the region and assemble a Pokemon team, enter the Pokemon League where he finally bests his rival once and for all, ultimately lose the Pokemon League, and then it's back to square one with him traveling to another new region, where he runs into some girl, and you know the rest. If I could compare the story to in this manga to something similar, it would be the Pokemon series. God knows how many times I was told this before I decided to give it a read. But you often hear so much about how great the writing in this manga is compared to other shounen manga series. It seems weird to do so, since this manga isn’t trying to be anything more than it is. So why the 4? Well, you see, this review focuses on the writing in this manga series, and I'm going to be as Reading the author’s note on the first volume, it’s clear the author, Kohei Horikoshi, just wanted to create something fun and enjoyable, and he succeeded in doing so, at least in my opinion. It’s no surprise this manga series is as popular as it is.

Over-the-top entertainment, really easy to get into, great artwork, fun and likable characters. It's not everyday you make an account on a site you lurk just to post a review, but here I am. Eventually, this leads to him inheriting All Might's power, and with his newfound abilities, gets into his school of choice, beginning his grueling journey to become the successor of the best hero on the planet. Discovering that his dream is not a dead end, the powerless boy undergoes special training, working harder than ever before. However, everything changes after a chance meeting with the number one hero and Izuku's idol, All Might.

Yet, he refuses to give up on his dream of becoming a hero determined to do the impossible, Izuku sets his sights on the elite hero training academy, UA High. Unfortunately, Izuku Midoriya was one of the few born without a quirk, suffering from discrimination because of it. Eighty percent of the world's population wield special abilities, known as 'quirks,' which have given many the power to make their childhood dreams of becoming a superhero a reality. EditSynopsis One day, a four-year-old boy came to a sudden realization: the world is not fair.
