僕のヒーローアカデミア 2 [Boku No Hero Academia 2] by Kōhei Horikoshi
4.0
Fun story and very much about teenagers! As an adult, it was hard for me to connect at times for that reason. The story follows Midoriya into more classes at the hero academy. It further explores how All Might is beginning to decline in strength and the student's training is put to the test when villains plan a attack. You get to know more characters in this book. I personally liked IDA who steps up in to the role of student class president and Eraserhead who appears to be an apathetic teacher but also sacrifices everything to protect the students. I genuinely like the story but I'm not sure the series is for me. The fight scenes are hard to follow and there are scenes that are just so 'teen boy' cringy for me to read; for example when a kickass female student who has frog abilities saves Mitoriya's life and his first reaction is that she has nice boobs. Genuine reaction, perhaps. Made me roll my eye, also yes.
