My Hero Academia: Vigilantes Season 2

(Spanish Review on my list) The story of these vigilantes who do good without expecting anything in return continues. Positive aspects of this season include: - Toned-down fan service - The protagonist began training and developing his powers - Supporting characters have significant roles - They aren't entirely outside the law, which explains why they aren't arrested, given that they're always present where trouble is and don't really hide their identities; they're practically public figures, and by the end of the series, everyone recognizes them Negative aspects include: - Too many episodes dedicated to a single villain who operates from the shadows, only for the villain to disappear for three years - Theyspend so much time at concerts and social events where problems involving the same villain always arise, which is odd considering our protagonists are always there and the police and other legal heroes are so ineffective - The relationship between the protagonists is stagnant (I'm not looking for a romance, but at least more trust and communication) -What was the point of the Eraser Head flashback?... It wasn't bad, but it would have been better in an OVA. It doesn't add anything to the vigilante series. And well, maybe it's telling the story slowly and hasn't reached its climax yet. I have to wait for it to progress further so I can really get excited and give an overall opinion of the anime... As a fun fact, you realize now that All Might is a beast. Deku never even came close to him, haha. Clearing a green area, removing wildlife, flattening the earth, and slowing the fall of a state with a capacity of about 55,000 people in around... I don't know... 7 seconds... wow... that's insane. You don't realize those exaggerated feats in the original series, haha.

The first season of the My Hero Academia spin off "Vigilantes" took me completely by surprise and ended up being much better than I anticipated. Now the last season of the main series "My Hero Academia" ended not too long ago leaving a hole on the anime market which the second season of Vigilantes could fill. Sadly, I must admit that I was a bit let down. This sequel season ended up being much slower and more uneventful. The only two good parts were the few episodes where we saw Aizawa sensei’s backstory and seeing all the heroes and All Might in action inthe final episodes. But other than that, most of the season was actually kind of boring if I am being brutally honest. It sort of lost the heart and charm it brought in the first season, and I felt like I could have skipped most of it, aside from the two examples I mentioned. Koichi and Pop Step played a weirdly secondary role in this season, even though this is supposed to be their show, which was honestly baffling. Yes, it felt nice to play detectives with Aizawa and see heroes like Midnight and All Might, but this is not their show. They should only play a small role, if at all, which this season did not get right. Sidelining the stars of your spin off for major characters from the main series is never a good idea and undermines the entire reason for the spin off to exist in the first place. This is not an All Might or Eraser Head spin off. It is a show about "The Crawler" and "Pop Step." And sometimes I had to remind myself of that. The action was pretty lackluster aside from the last two episodes, and I found myself zoning out while watching. A lot of time is focused on various concerts and other entertainment events, which objectively speaking did not make for the most exciting experience. It feels like Vigilantes lost its identity a bit, which is a shame in my opinion. Because now that the main series has ended, the potential for the spin off is endless. Yet this season ends with what can only be described as a sad whimper. The relationship between our two protagonists did not advance at all, even after a two year time jump. While I am aware that this is not a romance, there were seeds planted in the first season for that relationship to develop, but it does not happen here. It just stagnates and keeps the same status quo, which is a missed opportunity in my opinion. Speaking of time jumps, we do not even see the main antagonist being defeated since he just disappears, only to be teased again in the after credit scene. And if you consider that a lot of airtime was spent on just him, it feels odd to not see a conclusion to his arc in this season. That opens the door for a future season, but at this point, I think they should wrap up the story soon. It is starting to lose its charm, and it would be a shame to let it fall into irrelevancy. In total, I cannot fully recommend this season of Vigilantes, as it has more negatives than positives. Most fans of My Hero Academia will probably still enjoy it, but do not expect something on the level of the main series. There are some fun episodes with cameos from beloved characters, but as much as I love them, they tend to overstay their welcome. It is pretty good, but not on the same level as the first season. Which is pretty sad, because the potential is definitely there. This sequel just fails to follow up on it for the most part.

Okay... as a fan of anime in general, it's hard for me to NOT like an anime. However, the second season of MHA Vigilantes really tested me. It's not nearly as good as the first season, nor is it as good as the mainline story of MHA, but it's more streamlined, so people who would rather watch one or two 10–15-episode seasons are sure to at least be happy with this. However, fans of the core plot and deep meaningfulness of My Hero Academia will be left still a bit hungry after this season. If your curiosity is itching and you've already seen the firstseason and you have nothing better to do, I'd say this is probably worth your time. If you're wanting something that's going to inspire you the same way most of MHA and Vigilantes' first season did, look elsewhere. This is just a fun pit stop, but not an important one. Yes, you get some pretty cool lore about some of our most beloved heroes from the main story, but it's not really about that. It's about this new group of heroes, presented as illegal do-gooders, and their bond. Well, the first season was, anyway. The second season uses this group as a vehicle for the big guys, who only shine because they are who they are and not because the plot of the anime makes them cool. Yeah, this was fine. Glad it wasn't a very long season.

A perfect prequel whose tendancy can be measured by a silent blast in anime community because many people aren't following this . Just 3 recommended reviews from users , kinda sad because not giving importance to good anime leads to consequences maybe studio can cancel further seasons . Fortunately 3rd season is confirmed for this one . I think no need to describe in details as we all know it's a improved version of MHA . Studio bones done a fabulous job in delivering good content . The most exciting moments you can see in show are entry of almight and cameo of deku and hismom .I literally got chills . We got some good backstories too specially for eraser head . The unique thing which I like is vigilantes shows more time for heroes who aren't mainly related to main MHA. Loved the CC .
