I have been extremely enthusiastic about this series since the manga debut, and I was still looking foward to the anime. Very uunfortunately, my worst fears for the series came to fruition:
The anime will be short. Only 13 episodes
The series, in my opinion, needed at least 1 more year before becoming an anime, and I feel the rush to make an anime, the 3DS game, and so on, have all been because of the momentum of the hype from the manga.
It only gets worse. I watched the first episode today, and it only covers half the pilot. I think that made the first episode somewhat dissapointing, because it really only shows Midoriya at his worst state, without showing that glimpse of resolve that encompasses the who he is for the rest of the series.I hope they don't cut anything from the anime that was in the manga. That would really constitute my greivance.
I mean overrall it was animated well and tthe voice acting is great. The opening animation is pretty good and the music is excellent, truly Porno quality.
I am still looking foward to the season and am very confident that the reception it gets will be "very well received" by the end of the season, but for those who have read the manga, it may be a bit dissapointing. At the very least the quality won't suffer and if this is done yearly at the 13-15 episode pace, I may not ultimately mind as much because it would keep consistent quality and give the manga and anime breathing space.
The anime already started, but here's a PV.
I don't know when I may have the chance to talk about it again, but I hope it turns out great in spite of all the obstacles to greatness
