it would've been much more interesting if it was about a quirkless dude who beats the villains using TEAMWORK!! and STRATEGY!! but of course that would actually be unique and require good writing, so that's a no. Here's my idea for how it could be written:
>All Might is blackpilled about the new generation of heroes, who are all self-satisfying assholes
>the “main” villain is essentially a parody of deku from the original series called "Overkill" who is the FAILED successor of OfA after All Might realizes he is a sociopath who is pretending to be “good”
>Overkill is a top-ranking student at UA and is slowly using his status and power to warp the university (and the hero society as a whole) to his will, he uses his powers extremely irresponsibly and often harms himself and others in the collateral (hence his hero name)
>Shiggy is still in but he only really becomes a threat as an “endgame” boss after the final showdown against Overkill
>Midorya is rescued by All Might. AM realizes Deku has an actual altruistic spirit like his golden-age mentor and offers to train Midorya even though he doesn't have a quirk, also helps him get an application to UA
>For the entrance exam, Deku notices all of the other students aren't using their powers correctly or aren't helping eachother
>he saves a few applicants with "weaker" quirks who get caught up in collateral from the superpowered applicants, and they agree to "team up" for the entrance exam and end up defeating way more robots than the lone-wolf “strong” quirkers
>hero points deku gets accepted bullshit blah blah blah
>overkill gets jealous and tells all the students to hate/shit on deku
>all of the arcs are Deku essentially exploiting the other student's quirks and his enemy's weaknesses a la light yagami or whatever
>don't make everything TOO strategically focused, Deku succeeds because he's good with people and makes decisions, not because he's some sociopathic chessmaster or whatever

I wanted it to be good. I judge it as trash

It's particularly annoying that the MC and villainMC have the ultimate superpowers, what is the point of having a universe full of superpowers if they are all made redundant by the overpowered protag and villain?

>TEAMWORK!!
>STRATEGY!!
So, like Black Clover?

So like BC, where the MC works to get be strong despite being powerless, and it pays off when he gets weapons that makes him not completely useless, even then he's never op and wins most of his fights through the teamwork of his comrades rather than OOGA BOOGA ME PUNCH HARDER

My thing has always been when has being "the greatest" ever been a trait of being a hero, at its base core its about helping people around you but we hardly even see that from Deku before getting free gib. People will say "b-but he tried to save Kacchan" so fucking what that was his childhood butt buddy of course he'd try to save him, compare that to Koichi from Vigiliantes and how he threw away his entire future to try and save a random kid who was drowning, and how even after he couldn't go to hero school he did everything in his power to help others around him pre becoming a vigilante. Its why I can never get behind Deku and the main story.

>overkill gets jealous and tells all the students to hate/shit on deku
*overkill gets jealous cause AM abandoned him
>Deku succeeds because he's good with people and makes decisions
*GOOD decisions
shiggy would be kinda like a tertiary villain who is *actually* an in-universe, Overkill and Deku have to "team up" multiple times in the UA raid arcs, but Overkill is still a more immediate threat as he's perverting hero society from the inside.
No, Deku never really becomes powerful himself (through gear or anything), it's just that he makes "righteous" decisions and motivates others to do good. It's not even about the strategy, it's about how Deku takes the moral high-ground which causes otherwise chaotic good/lawlful neutral people to support him and organize and fight even harder. a whole point would be in this universe, the standard hero is a lot more morally grey and selfish than in the actual series, especially the heroes with really strong quirks who essentially are only heroes because they get rewarded for this thing they were born with, not because that profession interested them or they cared about morals - which creates a lot of dysfunction and chaos, kind of like real life. I say imagine "The Boys" but the immorality is toned WAYYYY down, while still being a central point of the story.

>actually an in-universe
i mean "actually ONE in-universe"
fuck lmao he's actually a proper in-universe villain, while Overkill is not (he's a psycho pretending to be a hero), that's what i was trying to say
fucking typos

>works out but doesn't have powers
>gets anti magic sword
>lol that is shit tier bruh
Really? he gets his ass kicked but how is that shit tier?
How can you possibly defend that?

>You don't reward people for leaping into danger when they don't have the skills to resolve it.
Why is that Zig Forums has the worst fucking takes on this series?
Never be a writer.

How is it redundant?

I actually already wrote a book, but are you going to elaborate on that?

I would've preferred if Deku was a vigilante and did hero work outside of the system, the same system that said he was defective and couldn't be a hero. So while Kacchan is at UA, or whatever it would be called getting his anus kissed by everyone but not gaining any actual skill, Deku would be out on the streets stopping actual criminals, getting actual experience, becoming better with each encounter. It would all culminate with Kacchan going out into the field after finally getting his license and getting his shit pushed in by what would be seen as lower criminals, as school never taught him what real criminals could do and how strength isn't everything, and the cherry on top would be that he's saved by Deku (who of course is masked) and he develops and inferiority complex by being saved by a vigilante who didn't even have to use his quirk ( he'd assume he has powers). From there he vows to never lose again and to capture the vigilante.

Eri has the ultimate quirk you fool

>Quirkless hero
I would like to introduce to my friend a literally fucking gun

Both series are trash, but Asta is a far better character because he actually tried far before he got his shitty upgrade
Deku just kept crying and only started working out once All might promised he'd give him the best quirk in the world.

Being a fake underdog handed the most powerful quirk in the world from the very beginning along with a bunch of extra quirks on top while the narrative jerks off about hard work and resolve etc etc while someone like Mirio loses his powers and becomes a janitor is fucking cringe but the TEAMWORK+STRATEGY+GADGETS approach for a shounen is easily just as retarded and the series wouldn't be nearly as popular as it is today

He got 7 quirks, get rid of all might's powers and he is no longer a true hero.
The theme and message do not match the execution, power is justice but they praise it like it's hard work when in reality they were just gifted it.

The sword only works because he got so buff, that being said the demon flying thing is bullshit, but thats about it, he usually doens't ooga booga his way through things like Deku and almost always has to rely on his teammates

What would be the premise of this story? That you can be a quirkless hero as long as most of the other heroes are jackasses? How would STRATEGY help in the fight against Muscular? The deku in this story serves the same function as the police officers on MHA.

Because all of the secondary characters are fucking useless in comparison.
Go fast? No AfO is better
Tapeman? No Black Whip is better
Gravitate? No need I can float

That's just the classroom, the series as whole revolves around how fucking overpowered All Might and OfA were

Because they want to take the series down a peg but aren't smart enough to do so in a way that's both critical and insightful so they come off as stupid. Basically this user summed it up well once they saw the series wasn't going to be what they wanted they turned on it so now it's issues they have with has nothing to do with it's quality but it's very premise alone. This idiot is complaining about a hero and antagonist being strong as if to say he's never read a piece of fiction in his life. It's honestly pretty amusing when you consider how none of you can actually write worth a damn.

Cool horseshit bro

>any hand me downs in a series = trash
ok retard.

>He got 7 quirks
Learn to count dumbass
>The theme and message do not match the execution,
Please explain the theme and message just so I can show you how wrong you are but using a passage from the manga to prove that you're a speedreader.

At the end of the day Anti-magic in Asta's case is NOT giving him advantage, it's evening the odds. That's the thing, Asta worked hard to get to the point where he is now and he still needs help in many situations. His Black form for instance can be one hit KO, but it can also be easily dealt with by using big amount of mana that can work like a magnet and he still has a problem with people that enhance their strength to be greater than his. And there is a risk of possession since he has a literal Devil inside his Grimoire. Right now after like 200 chapters Asta finally learned to fly on something, which can be utilized by most mages in this world. Asta is a balanced character who has his own strengths and weaknesses.
