Wow that site is a mess. I've never been more thankful for ANN's simple homepage design.

Kagamigami was underrated, shit was great. Would of loved an anime. Lol @ Dr. Stone

I think ANN has good reviewers for the most part but you guys should always keep in mind it's subjective as hell.

To be fair, I mostly follow the Twitter for Moetron. It tends to be quicker when it comes to picking up on announcements. And it's simple enough.

They're probably what I hate the most about ANN.

Whatever, this is getting off-topic.

I miss Pajama na Kanojo, it was a good ecchi.

"Underrated" is one of these words which completely lost its meaning in the internet.

Looking at that list, it just seems like in general, whatever doesn't have an anime adaptation is considered underrated by the Western uninformed incompetent trashy anime article writers, pretty funny. I really hate ANN. I like to get my anime and manga news from Moetron, shout-out time.

that site has the problem of just reposting news from elsewhere, one could easily see the news they report if you just follow the jpn twitter accounts. Also this was a weird one http://moetron.news/post/168242441305/boku-no-hero-academia-anime-film-announced-for

Maybe the Boku no Hero movie will make the manga have a boost, just as Strong World did with One Piece

The possibility is there as its set to air in Summer, right in the middle of the anime airing. The anime is also set to adapt some incredible adrenaline pumping material in the first cour. Couple that with the climax of the first cour and then drop a movie with original content and you can draw a lot of attention. The only thing is that the manga itself also has to have incredible developments. That is probably the reason why the boost from the second season didn't take effect immediately.

Strong World had all of this. OP was at Marineford in the manga and Impel Down in the anime when Strong World hit theaters. Those are incredibly hype inducing arcs and as a set, flow incredibly well. Heroaca needs that kind of tight writing these next few arcs. If Horikoshi is able to pull that off, then another big boost, possibly bigger than Season 2's, is possible.

Next week is Golem Hearts first rank, right? I'm hoping it's decent. The series hasn't been great yet, but it has improved. I need another battle/adventure series to be a success. It reminds me in a sense of Mitsukubi Condor, in that, the target demographic seems to be aimed younger, too young to be a success.

There's no way the boost would be as large. One Piece was way more successful than MHA prior to Strong World.

I love how that ANN article is completely off the mark and mostly mentioning some of the most overrate fodder in recent years as well as successful series that are already popular and overrated. Yaiba and Cross Manage are probably the only two deserving to be there.

Yeah facts, it’s all we got cause this bozebeats looks lame as hell from first impressions. GH has hit all the right strokes for me, enjoying it bigly. Was no point in getting hype every week if it’ll tank so I’m in standby mode. If it manages top 10 it’ll guarantee 4 volumes. If bottom 5 rip.

Should mention I like(d) Full Drive but the characters were trash and really bringing down the story. Plus the art is way overrated.
