Characters - 10/10 HeroAca has a pretty big cast of characters, one that only grows in season 2. The show is very good at not only building its own, new version of our world, but then going ahead and facing the problems and real-world issues it suffers.
And then we have the more intricate story - the story of the people Deku meets and how they affect him or vice verse, and then we see just how vulnerable and imperfect this society is, and not even superpowers can stop all the problems. The overarching story of 'random weak nerd gets special power and becomes a hero' which, as far as things go, is pretty cliché. Story - 8/10 The thing is, HeroAca has almost two stories going on at the same time. If you haven't seen the first season yet, go watch it (and as a heads up, season 2 gets roughly 7.469x better and no I did not calculate that and yes I'm pulling numbers out of nowhere). I'm assuming anyone who's come here has seen the first season, so I'll be referring to events that already happened in season 1. (I will be referring to the show as HeroAca because I'm a lazy sucker and can't be bothered to right Hero Academia).
