This looks freaking awesome~

Not too much shown in the PV yet but the production value looks top notch. High expectations for this adaptation.

Loving the animation style. I know it's too early to judge since it's just a PV, but I'm confident that Bones will do it justice in terms of animation. Voices are pretty golden too. Everything is looking good!

Jump Festa is on at the start of december and Bones have confirmed they'll be there so i've a feeling they might even drop an ova of some sort on us. Like when all the other festa ova's are over Bones come on stage and be like "ah here is the release date.... oh one more thing, here is an ova too".
Either that or Bones have been working on this for age and are almost done production

I've liked what I've seen so far of the cartoonier art style this series has, though the story concept doesn't really catch my attention. I plan to at least check out the first episode though, the pv looks promising.

One thing to remember is that it could be over a year between the announcement date and release date. For example, there were various July 28, '13 ANN announcements about several light novels like Blade Dance and Vanadis getting anime versions. However, they respective were part of the summer and fall '14 anime lineups.

First 2 chapters in the manga were pretty shit.

For me Chapter 2 actually got me invested while the first one nearly turned me away from it. On a look back Chapter 1 works better in hindsight as a premiere chapter that tells you everything you need to know about the world, feel, and characters in the form of a singular narrative, but yeah it screams "been there, done that."

I honestly don't feel like this is a series that's going to do well critically in it's beginning (not counting the truly stubborn against this type of series) but it'll ultimately do as well as it needs to since there's already a pretty loyal fan base. At the very least it never once treats you like a moron during all of this, even in the beginning.

back on the preview though it looks cool and I'm looking forward to seeing longer PVs with it's Opening.

The art style reminded me of Kill la Kill (even though different studios)

Shit? How? The first 2 chapters were amazing! SO MUCH Nostalgia in them too. You know those are called introduction chapters right? To help you get a feel of what the story is?

I'm satisfied with All Might's voice but damnit Deku sounds too old/mature than how I envisioned his voice in the manga. Oh well this is still going to be anime of the season

Cue all the idiotic manga readers and their weekly whining of how the scenes don't look the way they wanted, just like what happened with OPM.

Visually the animation really captures the art style of the manga. I am super excited for this anime with this being one of my top 3 manga to read every week. Personally I loved the first two chapters especially the ending to the first chapter. I see the shounen troupes that are there but I don't care. It might be I connect more with Deku then most shounen protagonists and it might also be for my love of superheroes but either way I can't wait for the anime to be released and to watch every episode.

Did Izuku just destroy that messed up illusion of ours with his right hand?
