Description: The story is set in the modern day, except people with special powers have become commonplace throughout the world. A boy named Izuku Midoriya has no powers, but he still dreams.
My number one contender for Jump's next big thing seeing as Naruto has ended and Bleach is.....well you know lol.(One Piece will always be #1 no matter what)
I actually like all the characters so far so thats a big thing.

Shoutouts to Fallen Angels for scanlations and keeping it regular too.

I'm going to try it out and post my opinion!
Thanks for sharing
Edit:
I saw it before and didn't manage to get me hooked but i will read all the chapters to see if it grows on me! It has happened in the past :D
|
I'm liking it so far. One of my quibbles is that MC and bakugou look too samey with mainly a hair palette swap but I'll probably get over it eventually. Also Tsuyu best girl.
|
I've read about this before but the cover is such a big turn-off, so I didn't bother. For ongoing series, I have One Piece and that's enough, I guess.

I mean OP had a pretty bad first cover, so did bleach and the art in this manga looks pretty good.
Going to look the first few chapters, hopefully it's funny so it can replace the good laughs I had reading Naruto and bleach for the last 2-3 years. That comedy gold.
|
I'm enjoying it so far. The setting has a ton of potential, and the characters are all likeable so far.
Also Deku's reaction faces are just amazing, haha.
|
Thing's really promising, I enjoyed it a lot already. Drawing is cool too :p
|
Blind my compatibility with you in manga must be like 115% or something, cuz yea :v, maybe we are long lost twins? (Already kept up with this series, nice to see a thread appear)

And from a cover, you can normally expect what the characters will look like and the general tone which is enough for me to judge.

I'm not sure what to say about this. It could be the worst thing I've ever heard of when judging any sort of media, you can easily click a couple times to see how its actually drawn.
This series has the potential to take the #2 spot overall. Will easily be better than naruto or bleach.

Seems pretty cool. A Japanese spin on superhero stories. The shear number of superheroes reminds me of Wild Cards.
|
One thing I've really enjoyed about this manga so far is that it's not afraid to make fun of itself. While the overall plot is typical shounen, there's a lot of parody and western-references that keep this very entertaining to read.
Also, Katsuki is an amazing character.

I still think you should try it before judging it, at the very least it would give you credibility.

pretty sensational to call it the 1# contender or even a contender at all when it hasnt even 1 year of serialisation...
so we have a wimpy-saint-type mc, who is even more of a loser in a schoolsetting where everybody but him is special (i would like to refer to the cancelled Mx0 or Iris Zero at this point, both of them made a better impression on me) of course he has a way to get stronger, but thats really far off in the future...
it has good art and character design, if a corecrew fleshes out (already a lot of characters) and explores the world beyond the done to death schoolsetting, i think it can have a good run depending on how the mainstory gets rolling, but at he moment, i dont think it can surpass the aforementioned manga, or the second row like toriko or beelzebub.

Toriko has taken Bleach over a while now. It's in the top3 for a while now.
Imgo the top of the Jump is : 1) One Piece (2) HxH) 3) Toriko 4) Gintama 5) Bleach / Assassination Classroom / Haikyū!! / Nisekoi / World Trigger
Boku no Academia has a lot of potential though.

yeah I think I've sort of gave some false info by calling it jump's #1 contender.

I didn't judge whether it's good or bad, I only judged that it's not something that is worth my time. As I stated, I have One Piece and as long as it doesn't blow me away, it's not worth bothering for me. When I looked at the cover, it was the complete opposite and I doubt what's inside is then that exact opposite of the cover. So yep, it makes sense. That's why I don't get where you are coming from. I even mentioned that I read about it before, without saying it's good or bad(again).

I explained my reasoning and from my point of view, it's sound and I didn't discredit the manga but only said it's not for me.

Probably because this site is my homepage and I always check for everything that I've missed. So if someone replies, I wouldn't just ignore him. That's what I would call courtesy. Also, who said I don't care about the manga? I didn't bother with Naruto either but still read what people here wrote about it after it finished.
