Welp, so much for a vacation. This episode had some "mystery" to it for an original episode.

I found it pretty amusing when the other pro heroes tried to explain their side of the story lol. Compared to the other epsiodes, this one was very talky especially with Deku's narratives. Eh, I think for most parts, the episode felt different than others.

Kinda interesting to see that girl from the My Hero Academia movie making an appearance I guess.

This filler episode came at an very inconvenient time in the story.
Also all might email notification was the best thing about the episode.

Well, I guess this was okay. The mystery twist was interesting, but it didn't add much to the episode overall.

I liked a few aspects of it like the twist at the end, and Mic's retarded acting. But overall, the mystery wasn't that 'mysterious' and ultimately, this filler episode was just a 'filler' episode.

Very mediocre episode. Hopefully, things start to pick up again next week when we return to the licenses arc.

This was advertised as episode 58 on TOHO's youtube channel, so I think it's safe to say that it will not be a separate entry.

The timing for this filler episode was very awkward, since we're still in the middle of the Provisional License Arc, but honestly, I still found the episode to be pretty fun.

The mystery wasn't that big of a mystery, but it was still entertaining to see how Deku's group took on the special training. Gotta love Mic's horrible acting though, it made me laugh quite a bit. ^_^

It also made references to the movie which I WOULD love to see, but I live in the U.K, so I have no choice but to wait for the movie to release here either via a special screening or on Blu-Ray. No use telling me to fly over to Japan to watch it, as I'm too busy with work to take time off right now, either. ¬_¬

Ah well, back to normal next week. I want to see Gang Orca in action already! =3

It’s pretty obvious not a lot of money was given for this episode so I can’t really complain about thang I just wish they used a bigger cast for this episode, most of them weren’t even needed you could have switched out Todoroki iida and tsu with anyone as they did nothing to contribute to the plot (only Bakugo and uraraka used their powers anyway) so you could have switched them out with momo, Kirishima and sero it wouldn’t change a thing

Nice filler episode! It’d quite the nice mystery vibe to it and all, and overall did aplenty to satisfy my needs from this show for the week. Sad there was no love though, Midnight’s acting was top notch though I must say. No wonder why Aizawa complementing Deku was off, xD.

Thanks for putting this up! I was wondering why the Studio would make such a decision in such a crucial time of the story, and I somehow feel a lot more satisfied!

I’m looking forward to seeing the action and whatnot resume from next week onwards and obviously the movie now since I’m curious to see this I-Island.

And the Oscar goes to... Midnight!
Her acting was actually good.

They're really pushing this movie, can't watch it since it's for the US and Japan only. The rest of us have to wait for the blue ray (or pirate it).

Good episode though 😊

Lol I couldn't help but get PTSD flashbacks to Naruto when random filler episodes would just be thrown into the middle of the final war arc (even after the manga ended). But this isn't a common thing with this show, so I can live with it if it's only once or twice per season.

As for the episode itself, there wasn't really anything notable or special about it. It just seemed like your typical, classic murder mystery. There were some funny moments though, like Mic's terrible acting. This episode wasn't particularly memorable, so I'm glad we're getting back to the main story next time.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

Interesting… I did not expect a sidestory in the middle of a climax. I don't know if that was the best move they could have made, but I enjoyed the episode anyway.

I won't be too harsh since it's filler, but that was pretty bad. The random movie promotion really took me out, and if you're going to have filler, at least try and use the characters besides the ones with the most screen time.

It was amusing episode.

The murder mystery stuff was kinda fun to watch. Present Mic was absolutely hilarious with his acting. XD

In the end, love or no love? :(

Bakugou's "What the hell is this joke?" was absolute gold. It was kinda my reaction at that point too. XD

Anyway, back to canon next week. I'm happy.

Decent filler episode. I'm pretty sure we were either getting a filler ep relating to saving the world with love or no ep at all since the broadcasters would have aired something else to promote this charity. So fyi to anyone screeching reeeeeeeeeeeee at your computer screens should probably stop.

Was kinda hoping this was gonna be an OVA or something, because it takes away from the series being part of the episode count... Oh well.

This episode was oddly good, but it has now it me wondering about allmight's potential love interests; I wonder who it would be. It came across as a surprise that Momo wasn't involved in this special class since I consider her to be part of the main troupe of heroes, those being:
Midoriya,
Bakugou,
Momo,
Ochako,
Lida, and
Todoroki.
But we had asui instead. Doesn't really matter though.

In other news, this is the most balance I've ever seen a poll result usually it's too heavy on the liking and loving.

I enjoyed this filler. People are complaining about it but honestly, there's absolutely nothing you can do about it. It was either they had an episode for the charity event or no episode at all. I heard that Detective Conan decided not to air an episode for the event.

I thought the entire episode was pretty funny. Not even the supposed 'love story' between Midnight and All Might was touching, especially when All Might dipped at the end.

This is definitely somewhat of a teaser for the movie.

What do you guys think? Is this going to be a small filler arc or it was just one episode? I read the manga and this is not there ( sorry if u count this as a spoiler lol :D ). Also the 3rd season is planed to be 25 ep and this is the 20th one so If this is a filler arc the season will end in the middle of the license exams arc …

That was such a random timing for filler, and an awkward plug for the movie that I won't get to watch until the BD comes out...

That said, the episode is surprisingly enjoyable. Reminded me so much of Detective Conan.

Interesting episode that was fun to watch, but I feel like it would've fitted better being swapped with the last episode. Linking it to the movie was nice too, but I need to know when I'll be able to watch the film outside of cinema because it's not on near me ;-; will it be coming to crunchyroll or DVD anytime soon?

What is the best way to make an ad for your movie? Air the introduction to the movie as a part of an episode and then tell everyone if they want to know what happened next to go watch the movie xD It's not like i would watch it anyways xD

Bakugou was the only one that was "right" because he was the only one who didn't believe in the love story xD But c'mon hahaha That was impossible for them to guess xD

Didn't knew that All Might was in the USA studying, can't wait to watch the movie!
