It's honestly crazy to think that 10 years I kick started this thread, and seeing the discussions still be carried on too this day just makes me so incredibly happy with how engaged you guys all have been for all those years.. Even though, I might've dipped out a after a certain period of time, I never stopped reading the manga because of what this meant for me.
 
Having said that, Looking back on how I started that initial post... I do have one confession to make and it has got to be the biggest oversight on my part.   That is this opening statement right here on November 20th 2014:
 
 

So for the past couple of days ever since Naruto ended, I've been trying to find a series to fill the void (aside from Bleach, Fairy Tail, and Attack on Titan). There needed to be a proper void to make things satisfying that it could take Naruto's place. So a couple weeks now, Ive came been keeping my eye on Weekly Shonen Jump's rankings, and I saw this manga get between #1 and 5 during those couple of weeks. 

 

 

 

 

I had actually started My Hero Academia prior to making this thread, it was August 25th 2014 which was a little over 3 months before Naruto came to an end. A lot of my attention at the time was on Naruto  as it was coming to an end so a lot of my personal investment was there, and My Hero Academia had fallen into the very back corner of my mind at the time especially around the conclusion of the Kaguya and leaning into the the Naruto vs Sasuke fight.

 

Then when it came to an end, Many of us were left in devestation and pure depression over what had transpired, and looking for that space to fill a void from what happened with Naruto. In fact I can even say that a lot of the other series I was into at the time I gave little to no importance especially for like newer shounen manga anime because of the legendary status Naruto had.  Due to that, I subconsciously forgot about My Hero Academia in that 3 month time span because of Naruto, and factoring dealing with being in my first year in College too... Grades were another huge factor that i swallowed into to distract myself from what happened with Naruto. 

 

 

Then comes the middle of November,  I came across My Hero Academia without having realized that I had actually read it before which kinda shows how badly Naruto's ending had devastated me personally that I had forgotten even when I had originally My Hero at all.

 

It actually took me until The Dark Hero Arc where I really sat on the direction of the series and a lot of what Deku was going through at the time.... How he had distanced himself from everyone. Ironically,  when I had my seizure for the first time back in May 2021 That was when I truly remembered where My own journey with this series happened before Naruto ended. 

 

So I do deeply apologize for the confusion on this everyone, and it probably doesn't mean much to anyone, but.... It was just a realization I've had for a while, and I wanted to bring that to light as the guy who kick started this thread.  :cry:

   

 

Now with that said, I can finally share my two cents.... Don't take this as review on whether the ending is good or bad.... Just tackling a few points that have been made..

 

Regarding One for All Situation & IzuOcha aka Green Tea

Well...

 

I totally get the sentiments there Phantom, and trust me the bridge had already burned for me twice once with Naruto and the other with AoT when it came to the romance subplot elements... The only exception  I'm willing to make is  if the mangaka has proven that he or she is capable with a well rounded compelling story with a good romance subplot from start to finish with their first series. 

 

More so, whether the work made them famous or was financially successful  makes no dfference <- big example being a series we all know too well.

 

 

 That said, without diving too much into the contents of the chapter, I did like the IzuOcha moment in the penultimate but at the same time I do also think if it was entirely dedicate to them kind of similar to Eden's Zero Chapter 291 with Shiki and Rebecca's confirmation and by that I mean... no interruptions. 

 

Though,  I am still waiting to see what wet in the final chapter for the full confirmation.

Saw it, didn't realise that Lucy first outfit in 100 year quest is simalr to her first outfit in fairy tail

 

It's a really nice callback! 

 

Of course we know that does eventually change as the story progresses much like the original series!
