It's been a while since I watched the last season of MHA and I didn't even think about the anime anymore, but I decided to watch the seventh since we're so close to the end, and this is an anime that I've been really into in years past, so I'm going to watch it until the end. That being said, I can't make many comparisons with the previous seasons because they're all a big blur, but here we go:
The seventh season of My Hero Academia clearly uses the drama artifice a lot, which really moves and engages you, but I have to admit that I missed some breathing space between all these dramas. Sometimes I binge-watched some episodes, but I had to stop because of all the overstimulation I felt while watching.
But don't get me wrong: I got emotional! I don't like to admit that I shed a few tears watching certain scenes. I'm just a girl.
I read in another review (which doesn't recommend the anime), where they say they miss how the anime was in the beginning, a little more of the characters' school life, etc. Well, the anime is nearing its end and in its climax arc, a war arc, it is completely natural that the story darkens and becomes heavier, and these moments of fun and youth are drastically diminished. I don't see this as a problem.
That said, another thing mentioned in reviews - which I agree with - is the lack of consequences for some characters.
Yes, we are at war! Japan is basically destroyed and governments all over the world know about the situation. It is something VERY serious! But even so, the heroes try to stop the villains still with the intention of saving them. What kind of wars are these? I see that the anime no longer feels so sorry for the characters and attacks them brutally, people lose limbs, quirks, some even die (who knows?) but the feeling is that in the end, everything will be fine for everyone, including the villains. Let's see how this ends in the next season.
But after all, I didn't think it was bad! It engaged me and made me want to watch it! I mentioned a few things that bothered me but overall it is a great season. Looking forward to the last one.
