Say you had a dream of being the greatest basketball player ever, but you suck. Instead of going to the gym you cry every day causing your mom to overeat from worry. You also look up to your bully for some reason.
Then one day you run into Michael Jordan and he transfers all of his powers to you, and gives you his guaranteed personal mentorship in the sport. Also you inherited 7 special basketball moves lost to time. Basically, you got lucky and now you are the best of all time.
Does that sound compelling? Would you watch that? Fuck no. So why this?
Yeah we get it, BNH is steaming pile of shit. But the girls are cute so it almost makes up for it
Grayson Kelly
>Also you inherited 7 special basketball moves lost to time Not gonna lie, that does sound kind of cool.
Connor Ortiz
>Does that sound compelling? Yes >Would you watch that? Yes >Fuck no. Shit taste >So why this? Why not?
Ethan Harris
On a scale of shit to Fairy Tail, where is BNH on the "read it for the fappable girls" meter?
Angel Collins
Idk, I feel like I've already watched all the seasons that came out so I've gotta watch the next one Like I'm halfway through the shit sandwich and I need to know what the last bite tastes like
90% of people in that world have a quirk, so in this case not having a quirk is probably more akin to having a disability.
That said, using this example, gaining almights power is like going from disabled to the literal peak of human perfection and athleticism. Still stupid.
Look, just keep making more ochako porn with a fat ass.
>Say you had a dream of being the greatest basketball player ever, but you suck. Instead of going to the gym This implies that a quirk is something that can be achieved by training, which it isn't. Maybe a more accurate analogy would be >Say you had a dream of being the fastest runner ever, but you have no legs. >Then one day you run into Usain Bolt and he transfers all of his legs and powers to you, and gives you his guaranteed personal mentorship in the sport
Adrian Wilson
Do I also inherit seven special running moves lost to time?
Cameron Perez
80% of the people in MHA have a quirk. So 1/5 of the population is quirkless, which is a lot. Also despite that percentage we don't know how many people are heroes
Hudson Bailey
>Does that sound compelling? Would you watch that? Fuck no. Don't put words in my mouth. It would actually be something interesting.
Jonathan Robinson
>Michael Jordon
No, because it's propaganda. Barkley had the secret moves and they were lost after he chaos dunked, this is common knowledge.
>You also look up to your bully for some reason. His bully would be Lebron James and Cucku cannot stop touching himself to him.

More boring and cringe than Sakura x Sasuke

See, here's the problem with your premise. You've forgotten the thing that made early BNHA somewhat interesting - the fact that Michael Jordan's basketball power is SO FUCKING HIGH that you break your arms every time you try to shoot the ball and you shatter your legs every time you dunk.
In this context, you weren't gifted with the best power ever. You're too weak to use it. You're not the chosen one. Mike picked the wrong guy - he was supposed to give it to his 7'2 jacked apprentice but he gave it to you instead and now you have to try and live up to Mike's legacy even though you fucking CAN'T, your bones are too weak, your muscles are all wrong, it'll be decades before you can accommodate this much basketball power. The fact is, you can't win games alone like Mike can - you have to have your friends. This is what makes you better than Mike, because you use your head and your heart. You understand the need for teamwork in a way Mike never could.
THEN you find out that you're the chosen one and solve the problem of breaking your bones and that he gave you 7 special basketball moves that don't have any affect at all on your bones. That's what makes BNHA bad. The premise, the opening, it SOUNDS like it's just Naruto all over again, like he's just been handed power. But the reality is different. It's not until much later that things got bad.
Luis Russell
Yeah but superpowers aren't really something you can improve on. Anyone without some kind of disability can improve at basketball, the quirk wasn't something Deku was gonna get from enough practice.
Christian Davis
the 7 thing aside, I will argue that the bone breaking was gonna get old sooner or later
It's just not worthy, no matter how cute the chicks are on the adds or how much they promise you it will not suck, it's fucked from the beginning because of the writer being a hack or an idiot or an idiotic hack.
Charles Wilson
It was, which was probably part of why they originally introduced the 7, but there are still way better ways of handling that problem.
Brody Baker
People forget that of the 20% that are Quirkless, the majority are adults or elderly. All Might even mentioned that it was common for kids to be quirkless when he was growing up, but it's less common now.
