It had a great introduction, great animation, excellent characters and voice acting both in Japanese and English

Nothing was rushed, everything was solid and clicked together. You can tell that a lot of effort and work was put into making this anime.

Madhouse really knows how to make a solid anime and I would know

It may have been a lot of the first beginning chapters but it was pretty solid none the less. The Opening was also peak, I mean don't get me wrong season 2 and 3 had some good openings but they can't compete with The Hero.

Season 2 and 3 didn't appeal and failed mainly because they were trying to fit all chapters into one episode instead of just taking their time. Season 1 never did that and took things smoothly that's why it was so loved.

J.C. Staff tried and they just couldn't match what season 1 had, they couldn't copy greatness.

that isn't to say they couldn't have tried, if only they had took their time instead of just rushing things.

then they could've succeeded
