![My Hero Academia: Season One [Blu-ray]](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91y2UYa5J+L.jpg)

From studio BONES, the creators of Fullmetal Alchemist and Soul Eater, comes My Hero Academia, a superhero origin story that soars to the top of the class.It’s an exciting age of heroes, where most people develop supernatural abilities known as Quirks. Bright eyed kids like Izuku Midoriya—Deku for short—dream of the day they become champions of the people. There’s just one little problem standing in Deku’s way. In a world full of heroes, he’s Quirkless. Crushed, but not down for the count, this superhero fanboy dedicates his time to studying the pros in hopes that he, too, can join a prestigious high school for heroes. In the face of despair, Deku’s courage catches the eye of his ultimate idol, the symbol of justice known as All Might! With special training from the big guy himself, Deku and the talented first years of the academy may finally have a shot at achieving their dreams. But these amateurs are put to the test of a lifetime when routine training becomes a battle against real villains! Review: Masterpiece Anime - I enjoy anime from time to time. Oddly, Studio Bones is usually the common denominator of anime I like. Wolf’s Rain and Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood I count among the top anime I have watched (I enjoyed the original FMA but prefer FMAB’s ending) along with Akira and Ghost In The Shell. For context, I’ve barely read manga (some Battle Angel Alita as an exception) and while I can love anime, I am a little more on the casual side due to how frequently I consume anime. I had vacation over the holidays and had heard that My Hero Academia was good, so I specifically signed up on Hulu to watch it. Sweet Baby Jesus was the show good. I am a grown man and it brought me to tears. I love Izuku/Deku and the cast. I did not even know prior to starting it that it was Studio Bones, but it felt like the same quality as FMAB, which is highly thought of as one of the best anime, especially for non-hardcore anime fans. I marathonned the first season and started taking the rest slower to space it out. I’m about to finish season 2. Even though I am watching it on subscription, I had to own the Blu-ray’s. I, for the first time in ages, had to own merch for this. I bought a figurine of Izuku and have a shirt on the way, since then, I’ve got my eye on a lot of other items, Why bring all this extra crap up? Simply put, I love this show so much that it drove me to buy more. That’s amazing, as I don’t do this. I’ve even ordered the first volume of the manga. I’ve found out what “Shounen” anime is now (I was ignorant to this prior to MHA even though DBZ and FMA are considered this). I’ve seen this show is massively popular yet certain crowds think it’s overrated. Subjective tastes come into play here. There are no truly original stories for any genre in my opinion. It’s all in how excellently it is packaged. MHA has fantastic music, good characters, a decent sometimes great plot, but what is most important is that it packs an emotional punch. This show has heart. If the review was a ramble, sorry. I love this show. To those reading this review who may think I’m missing out on other anime, this show has driven me to want to check out shows like Tiger & Bunny and/or Hunter x Hunter in the wait for season 4 once I get through the existing episodes. People talk like this is the next Naruto. I certainly hope so, as I want as much time with these characters as I can get. If you like this show, buy the seasons, the movie, and the merch. The more money it makes the more we’ll get. Edit - January 21, 2019 I got the time to watch some of the special features. The anime expo, meet the characters, Nishino’s interview all three are good. The AnimeFest artist sketches are cool, but not necessarily a must watch. However, the Inside The Episode extras where staff/VO cast for the dub speak about the episodes, their characters, and themselves really shine. Each video brought me smiles and laughter. You can tell that all these people are passionate about this. I really love the Inside The Episodes featurettes. Review: Worth Getting - Really it is an outstanding series. While live action superhero movies are huge now, I think a lot of us grew up watching animated superhero series. Honestly this anime is one I'm happy to add to my collection in general, but also as a great superhero show. The story has a fair amount of cliche elements to it, but the show takes those and uses them well. It does have a fair amount of surprises while using some familiar elements. The main character Izuku has a great mixture of characteristics. He's someone who has suffered a difficult childhood, has experienced being powerless and yet through all that he has the kind of decisive desire to help people that makes him worthy to become a hero. Or at least start on the road to learning how to become one. I really like the setting. We've seen settings where people with super abilities are ostracized (like X-Men) or where there are only a handful of powerful people in a normal world. But here we have a world where the percentages are flipped. Where people with abilities are the vast majority and it's only a small amount who are without powers. A world where there are so many powerful people that being a superhero becomes a job. A mixture of rescue worker and celebrity. It is just a good looking show. Studio Bones did a masterful job. The visuals are bright and defined, the characters are distinct looking, and the action looks really nice. It has a visual style that works well and feels like a comic book anime. And there are a surprising amount of extras. You really don't see this many extras (a lot of interviews, character intros, anime expo panels) for an anime release. Most of the time we just get clean opening and ending visuals, maybe a trailer. This is just the start of My Hero Academia. A really strong show that has a lot more coming our way. I think it is a good entry anime for people since it does focus on a topic that many can wrap their heads around. Worth picking up.

DVDとのコンボパック商品ですが、ブルーレイのみのレビューです。 タイトル『僕のヒーローアカデミア(1期)』ディスク2枚+1枚(Extra)/13話/1080p 一般的な国内プレイヤーで再生出来ます(再生環境/SONYの2015年~の最廉価プレイヤー『BDP-S1500』)。 タイトルで日本語音声と字幕《OFF》を選択すれば、後は普通に鑑賞する事が出来ます。 映像特典は、ディスク2にアニメフェス2016インタビュー×2・アニメフェス2016アーティストスケッチ・インサイドエピソード×13(英語)・ノンテロップOP・ノンテロップEDVer1&Ver2・ヒーローアカデミアトレイラー・他作品トレイラー。 ディスク3(EXTRS)には、アニメEXPO2016のインタビューなどが3つ入っています。 映像特典の字幕は、リモコンで字幕《切》を選択すれば普通に鑑賞出来ます。なお、英語版インタビューは、日本語吹き替えなどはありませんのであしからず。 原作未読ですが、少年漫画の王道的展開が熱いです。 OVAの『救え!救助訓練!』が入っていないのは痛いですが、本編見れればオッケー的な方でしたら大満足な一品でしょう(後々のシーズンにオマケで入るかな?)。 4000円~5000円でこのクオリティのアニメをワンクール分見れるならば文句無しです。 現状シーズン4ぐらいまで出ているみたいなので、ゆっくりと価格変動を見ながらお得に買い揃えて行こうと思います♪

A friend of mine kept telling me what a great anime this is, and I can see why! A complex underdog with a herioc mentor, as well as a short-fused rival, and a bone-chilling villain are among only a few of the amazing characters in this awesome series. Recommended to anyone who loves anime in general!
