Nintendo 3DS Game Coming to Japan

There has been news that My Hero Academia will be coming to the Nintendo 3DS in Japan. The game was announced on November 18th in an issue of Jump magazine in Japan. It also should be noted that the game has not been announced for a Western release. Zacharyalejandro (talk) 23:41, 21 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Cast

I'm going to hit a blunt because it's getting out of hand.

Cast for the dub must be sourced by reliable source. Unsourced cast will be removed. Using a verified source to add cast that is not included in that source is highly inappropriate and if it continues to be done it will referred to Admin. This information is being checked so don't try and be sneaky about it.SephyTheThird (talk) 16:45, 4 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Several cast have been removed due to the "supporting source" not mentioning them at all. As of now everyone mentioned in the original Funimation blog listing has been verified. Any additional cast added should be checked as added.SephyTheThird (talk) 17:22, 4 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I've repeatedly removed unsourced cast added to the article by Mumbai0618. Apparently, this individual thinks their edits are immune to WP:V and especially WP:BLP. Everything on Wikipedia must be verifiable through reliable source. This goes especially for any information involving real people. Cast and staff have been a common point of vandalism, and wrongly attributed roles can negatively affect these individuals' careers because casting directors do check Wikipedia along with other sources. —Farix (t | c) 17:57, 4 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I've left a separate message on their talk page as well so further instances will be cause for AIV.SephyTheThird (talk) 18:17, 4 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
My apologies for this. I was unaware of this part of the Talk page until I got the private message, and thought that the cast members were either hinthe source or on Dubbletalk. However, I was not the one who originally added them. It won't happen again.Mumbai0618 (talk) 18:50, 4 July 2016 (UTC)Mumbai0618[reply]

Anime in template

Currnetly, the anime section in the template says that the anime is not yet finished (which is true if it refers to both seasons - 1st and 2nd), but it says there are only 13 episodes (which is true if it refers only to the 1st season). This inconsistency is misleading the reader.

The common treat in other articles is to separate seasons, as it was done in Asura Cryin', in Sword Art Online, in Noragami, in Assassination Classroom and practically in every other series I checked (with 1 exception: Aldnoah.Zero).

So I suggest we do the same as it is in most articles, like i edited but was reverted. It is to note that my edit implied very clearly that it was the "first season", therefore the series is not yet completed, therefore was not misleading in any way.

Or, another option is to change the number of episodes (to 26 I guess), but I'm not sure if the 2nd season will also have exactly 13 episodes.

TheFarix, maybe you can tell how many episodes will the 2nd season have? Orielno (talk) 15:43, 20 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

One extra note: If writing the "end date" may cause the reader the false impression that the series is over, how come writing that it has 13 episodes won't cause the reader the false impression that the whole anime is 13-episode long? Especially since the common trait is to write the total number of episodes of the anime, including those that haven't aired yet (I just checked 10 currently airing animes, all of them were as I said).
Furthermore, the current situation is such that every possible reader will have some sort of false impression: if the reader thinks the section refers to the whole anime - then he/she will get the wrong impression that it is only 13-episodes long, while if he believes the section refers only to one season, then he will get the wrong impression that it is still airing...

I know I wrote too much already, but just to sum up the possible solutions to the problem:
  • Reverting back to what I did in my edit
  • Writing the end date as I did, and adding a new box to the 2nd season, despite the fact that we have very little information of it (not even scheduled airing date)
  • Changing the number of episodes to 26 (if there's a source for that), or to unknown
  • Replacing "13" with "13 (1st season)"
Orielno (talk) 04:31, 21 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
First of all, we don't create multiple infoboxes for each season. Each infobox component are for the entire series. Second, the episode count listed is the total number of episodes that have already aired. So far, only 13 episodes have aired. This practice is consistent with the use of |num_episodes= in {{Infobox television}}, from which the {{Infobox animanga/Video}} is partially derived from. Now Japanese companies plays fast and lose with the distinctions between seasons and series and it does create a lot of problems when we represent that information in the infobox. But practice is that if there is a rename and a new plotline, then it is treated as a separate series. At the moment, we don't know if there will be a rename and a new plotline. All we know was that that a "second season" was announced. Thus, that the series is not over how we represent the information in the infobox. And finally, let me restated what {{Infobox animanga/Video}}'s documenation states with the use of |last=. "The first air date of the series's last episode on its original Japanese network." The documentation does not state to air dates of the last episode of a season. And again, this description of use is derived from {{Infobox television}}. —Farix (t | c) 21:59, 21 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your explanation. I now understand your position, but like I mentioned, currently in all short animes (11-26 episodes) the practice is to write the total number of episodes even before the anime is finished airing. So the average wikipedia reader, who has experienced reading some similar articles, will asume that the series contains only 13 episodes, not that it is still airing and will have more than 13.
I think that the rational of this distinction between short animes to long-never-ending ones, is that in the latter case we really don't know how many episodes will ever be so we write the number aired, while in the former if we can write the total number of episodes even those haven't aired yet, it is more informative. In this article, the reader will think it is like the former, since it is a short anime, and that is why I'm uncomfortable with the outcome. But I will leave it as it is, anyway in a year or so when the 2nd season will air it will be fixed. Orielno (talk) 07:46, 22 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No All-Might?

I don't see a section for All-Might, but all the secondary characters. What gives? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 118.172.200.26 (talk) 07:14, 20 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No mention of its parody, My Hero Magademia?

I propose adding at least a brief mention of its first parody, My Hero Magademia. In which All Might is "Wall Might", aka Donald Trump, and Deku is "Maiku", aka Mike Pence. 24.20.33.96 (talk) 07:39, 24 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Where is the reliable source? Calling something a parody is an interpretation and requires sources. Otherwise, it violates the policies on no original research. —Farix (t | c) 10:25, 24 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
There is no mention of it because most parodies are non-notable and are therefore ineligible to warrant a mention. Sk8erPrince (talk) 11:10, 22 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
