i don't know how possible the idea of riding the geyser is, but to shoot them up 3 stories high is kinda achievable, i guess.
anyways, seems like the main progression we got from this mini-arc was teamwork and bakugo softening up for his team. good for him. it only took him 3 seasons to get this far

Was pretty alright and even had a nice Bakugo moment.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

I couldn't stop laughing when Bakugou demand Deku to be his cane XDD Plus no talking cane! lol Bakugou's too stubborn for his own good, but without that, he wouldn't be our himself anymore, right? X3 Other than that, I'm glad everyone got out safely, even being injured!

What a thrilling OVA, and I can't wait to watch more in the future ^^

The Best and only good things in both OVA's.. were the OP/ED songs...

Irrelevant Filler...

6/10 is good enough for this.

Bakugo's recklessness causes a flooding and almost kills themselves in the process, or at least makes things a lot more difficult. Refuses help from everyone vehemently (until finally making Deku his "cane" *puke), always screaming in the process and being generally unreasonable, stubborn and annoying.

Can Bakugo just die now? Goddamn, just get hit by a ten tonne truck already.

Meh, 6/10 for this OVA. Nothing we haven't really seen before.

A fine entry to the franchise, I suppose. Some of the teamwork and ground breaking ideas was interesting to watch along with the usual interactions which is so-so from my perspective.

Quite the nasty training regime this though, it ought to be said. And that dummy, lol.

Listening to the Op & ED after a while was really nice too.

it was fun and cool, nothing amazing. it was nice to see the kids again though idk why another filler episode(s) are centered around training-- and why this was placed so far back in the timeline. i would've liked to see how the other team did in their training, and speaking of, aizawa wtf? what kind of training situation is this??? tho i kinda get why he's so calm- recovery girl can easily heal the injured

This OVA is genius in many aspects, from character selection, they select ten most interesting students in the class (sorry if your favorite is among another ten students), and they split into several groups that are shippable (how can I never ship Todoroki X Tokoyami before!), and they rotate from original group to new group to create another shippable moments, and of course the final has to leave it to big three characters, which are Deku, Bakugou, and Todoroki.

Also since I don't read manga, maybe Kaminari's behavior is foreshadow something? (please don't spoil me)

I think this is what My Hero Academia should be, the main story should involve training to become a hero. Fighting a real villain in a real situation should be a secondary object or save for the final act, but people's hype on villain lead main story astrayed. This OVA confirm to me that the title of the anime is still My Hero "ACADEMIA". I need more of this.

Team B be like: "What is taking them so long?"

Overall, entertaining set of ONAs but I was expecting a more "rescue-ish" kind of focus instead of just having Bakugou and co. blasting their way out of the debris, almost killing their teammates in the process. Aizawa not giving a shit about his students' safety was also kinda odd but well, what else is new in shounen?

6/10 - Now let's wait for that fifth season.

@SouthRzVa or Team B be like: "Am I a joke to you?"

Though I'm not complaining here since my favorite characters were all in Team A xD (well... except for my cinnamon roll, Kouda ♥).

Anyways, during the whole episode I was thinking in what kind of training this was. I mean, Kaminari and Iida almost died!

All that effort to save a training dummy, and Bakugo is as tsundere as ever.

The true extent of the training is made clear with Aizawa-sensei, and the rescue is finally underway...as Bakugo continues his rampage like it's his usual.

An unlikely alliance between Bakugo, Todoroki and Izuku is just about the greatest thing in the entirety of MHA, working together in collaboration creating a geyser as means of escape. You don't normally see Bakugo in cahoots, so it's the one redeeming point of this OVA.

Meh OVA, waiting for Season 5 instead.

anyone else notice they started playing Might*U from the Heroes Rising movie right at the moment when Bakugou finally agrees to let Deku help him? Almost teared up right there.

Bakugo is going to grow up to be the reckless hero I see, but of course I guess you need a little recklessness in order to save people.

I didn't believe it at first, but I see the author just went ahead and boosted that Deku x Kaachan ship

Ngl, I thought I was rewatching an old episode, but of course it's a little different. Deku and Kaachan can atleast breathe without sexual tension fighting.

Except for Kaminari being a wuss, this was actually pretty well written filler. I am impressed. Bakugo was quite well written.

I wonder if Horikoshi wrote the script for this.

It was alright I guess, I would've prefered some dorm SoL instead of rescue stuff again. And I wish they put some of the other characters from the class in this OVA (like Shouji or Sero) instead of always the same old fan favorites.

That was kinda entertaining... Bakugo bored me a little but whatever.

Scenes with Bakugo, Midoriya and Todoroki are always nice though.

I wonder if someday all these stupid kids will grow up and we get to see it, I'm talking about something like what happened with Naruto Shippuden or some shit like that.

I will say. This was just not a great Ova. But the second half of episode 2 was pretty alright. I think the mistake that this one did was doing the safe routes. Tokoyami with Todoroki was a lame boring combination, with just some forced together conflict. But the last scene, while honestly a classic trio, Deku, Bakugo, and Todoroki pulls off each other perfectly and created a brilliant show of teamwork during the second half of episode 2. It was engaging and I wasn’t screaming to everyone that they have a phone. But the conclusion felt rush

I'm getting tired of Midoriya's fixation on "Kacchan." Yeah, he's good at stuff and he's known him forever but he's unpleasant and actively bullied him most of his life and straight up told him to jump off a bridge in the first episode. Katsuki is all tsun and no dere and it's kind of annoying to watch Midoriya get excited about him all the time. Leave the guy alone, he hates you, or at least acts like he does. Even if he's competent he's still so unpleasant it's hard to believe all the kids are still tolerating him as much as they do.

People change and Kacchan changed over time, even with his foul mouth. That time when Bakugou was still in middle school with Midoriya he was a lot worse and very unpleasant just like you mentioned with the bullying. But after they both got in U.A. Bakugou made such a crazy character development (at least in season 3), and I can tell you that at the beggining of the series I disliked Bakugou's attitude, but now I'm used to it and there are times when I find it funny hearing his answers (sometimes out of the blue, if you know what I mean).
In other words, I can understand what you are trying to say, but I don't think you were observant enough about Bakugou and only focused in his bad temper. All I can say for now is that you should wait for when Season 5 starts, because you will be very surprised, especially with the big fight with Shigaraki :)

Loved their plan to break thru the ceilings & Deku knowing that their Quirks have their limitations so he went to help them. Kacchan accepting help from Deku only coz he’s his cane lol!!!!! That cracked me up

Definitely prefer the previous art style & character designs tho :(
