While the series does have a few pacing issues, and a lack of a strong supporting cast, it more than makes up for it with its slick art and strong leading trio. Read full review

My Adventures with Superman fuses DC Comics canon and shonen anime tropes to put a fresh and charming spin on the Man of Steel. While there are a few weaker characters, the show’s first seven episodes show huge potential driven by weird villains, complex fights and a tight ensemble. Read full review

For those wanting a strict Superman and Lois Lane story that tracks arguably the most known relationship in the DC universe, "My Adventures With Superman" is the show to watch. Read full review

Over 80 years since the creation of this iconic character, it is a testament to the strength and flexibility of Superman and his mythos that he is still able to be molded and shaped in new and exciting ways, and My Adventures with Superman does just that—and is a hell of a good time to boot.

A lot of dumb people don't seem to get that Clark Kent breaks things because he's Superman in disguise. How better to throw people off the scent of your real identity as Superman than by being a clumbsy oaf?

What have they done with Superman? And then that bad drawing style. It's all so annoying on anime and the characters just don't fit. Wasn't Lois and Jimmy even white? And why is Clark being portrayed so stupid? It's cheap humor for him to break everything.

Trash. Always tweaking for a new audience. Leaving behind what made it great.

Really Bad
You know it does not bode well for the show if already the first minutes suck terribly. How can Clark, already a decade into his powers still be breaking things left and right due to his strength every few minutes.
Because he is nervous? Come on, that is ridiculous. And also theReally Bad
You know it does not bode well for the show if already the first minutes suck terribly. How can Clark, already a decade into his powers still be breaking things left and right due to his strength every few minutes.
Because he is nervous? Come on, that is ridiculous. And also the other problem you notice immediately. Everyone seems to have their emotions scaled to 11. It might work in some shows where characters are backed by funny humour but here it is not. They, especially Lois, simply come of bipolar and annoying. None of them are likeable. And this is Superman! What is happening here?
The story is uninteresting and the villain might as well be any random person for all the menace and charisma his character gives off.
Just a terrible, poorly written, badly generic and unfunny show, a very bad name for the beloved hero.… Expand

Generic
Generic because the animation tries to be anime in every way but nothing feels an anime or even natural, I think this animation wanted to be like chainsaw man animation, but it felt more like Blue Period animation, which (in relation to the principles of animation) is terrible. ThatGeneric
Generic because the animation tries to be anime in every way but nothing feels an anime or even natural, I think this animation wanted to be like chainsaw man animation, but it felt more like Blue Period animation, which (in relation to the principles of animation) is terrible. That don't have any movements at all! It's noticeable that the animator wanted to make it quickly and focus on details on, character design, which is ok, but looked more an illustration or PowerPoint in a lot of moments. For Example: There's a shot we're Lois Lane talks to Jimmy in which she puts her hand on top of him. In the next shot her hands are in the air (?????????). I didn't understand that in any way, seriously.
But for storytelling is generic too due to feelings of the characters that's so exaggerated like every high school comedy ever. I got the impression that they wanted to do like Kaguya-Sama, but the atmosphere was not like that an all because it wanted to write drama, but I's more a comedy than anything else in the writing.
And there's Jimmy, which is just for comedy purposes. He does not have any motivation at all to believe in what he believes, because he is such an idiot like Zenitsu (Demon Slayer) and I can't think anything more of him than just it.
At least, the voice acting is very good, the tone is just right, the modulation of the voices, convincing.
In the conclusion: it was generic, doesn't' have heart on it, it was anything that I watched before, which is very bad. I don't recommend it.… Expand
