Deku is worrying his head off while All Might is getting tired of his shit lol

Mt. Lady using her sexy charms to get some free takoyaki.

Todoroki challenging Deku. He acknowledges him and I'm sure Bakugo is jeaous of that. Todoroki is one of my favorite characters. His design and powers are awesome. I remember when Bakugo felt inferior to him after they did a practical test in a building. He underestimated how powerful the other students were, in this case, how powerful Todoroki is.

The characters in the Hero Course Class 1-B, C, D, etc. all look so awesome.

Ms. R-rated Midnight OMG LOL.

For me it was regular, but with the arrival of the tournament of insurance that would improve the situation.

I'm not really a fan of the second season so far. This episode is honestly one of the most boring Hero Academia episodes I've seen so far. It was mainly filler except at the end when they actually start. Oh, and, Todoroki's attitude is not likeable at all I really hope he doesn't stay like that all season.

Fuck yeah this show is very straightforward seriously I thought this was gonna be a setup episode with the kids practicing and training and stuff for that sports festival but the setup was just the first five minutes lol and including the opening song!

I want Deku to win. Not for himself but for his mother.

Peculiar how the contestants have to run a circle around the stadium, but somehow constantly run straight away from there, then take a left turn, then a right... makes sense. I'm also not sure how Todoroki got past all the robots, as you can obviously see another wave of robots just behind it during an overview shot. It's those little inconsistent things that irk me.

Otherwise, it's a good episode that kicks off the competition.

It's interesting just how OP Todoroki is. Like he's obviously the best in class, I think even Bakugou would have problems with him.

Much preferring the first season so far to be honest. I hope this gets better.

Midnight is my favorite heroine for sure now, though!

I had a feeling that there would be time to train for Midoriya before the sports festival starts. But unfortunately he still can't control his all for one.

Of Bakugou provoking everyone with his words. I had to laugh what he said on the stage before the first discipline began :D

I also didn't expect Todorokis words to Midoriya, but it's right. Everyone fights for himself at least at the moment it seems so.

Damn Midnight is so hot and that outfit was just crazy *.*

Todoroki didn't hesitate at the beginning and showed why he's one if not the strongest of the young heros.

Will be interesting to see what Midoriya wants to do against these robots.

Katsuki needs to go get some help. Whoever the heck hurt this kid... I think he has some issues going on with whatever happened in his past, family or whatever. He shouldn't go speaking out his pride in front of a bunch of people like that. He ain't gonna get no friends that way.

This episode was REALLY fun! It was just filled with the pure excitement of competition.

I loved the montage that showed all the ways that Class 1-A prepared for the sports festival. And I didn't know a race could be so interesting, but this show has succeeded in that. It was a blast seeing all the students get past Ice Lad. I really don't see how anyone can possibly beat Freezer Boi.

And now I'm curious about the other courses. Like...surely not all the students in the general course tried for the hero course? Some of them have to be there because they want to. And...what would you do with a general degree at a school for heroes? If you're not a pro hero, a hero support, or hero manager, then what else can you do in the hero career field?

Can't help but admire the art quality in the episode. The main cast and the backgrounds weren't the only ones who looked great because how they drew the extras made it feel like they aren't faceless space fillers like the usual even if they don't really have any other role except for being there.

After a quick and exciting training montage, the UA Sportsfest has finally begun. Bakugo being the sports representative might be because of his skill, but his sportsmanship has a long ways to go. The very first event was an intense mad dash that only truly started when Todoroki took the initiative to freeze everyone else on their tracks. Everyone using their powers to their advantage was awesome, especially Mr. Half and Half doing his best to look good to his old man.

Seeing Izuku being so brave, buff, and determined here can't help but make me chuckle because I keep remembering how much of a dork he was and still kinda is. I like him.

Why are they hesitating so much? Now that the Zero Points are out of the way, all that's left are the 1-3 points that absolutely anyone from the hero course who isn't the protagonist can obliterate easily.

Okay I should say that. The best part of this episode was Minoru's training, haha!!! He was training for the winner's speech (LOL). And yeah female heroes doesn't have any concern about their costumes or ... or shame :p

But I wonder who is Todoroki's father? Is it Shouta Aizawa?

However that was a damn speech Bakugo, Haha, I like that attitude also with that speech!!! XD

O m g!!!!! I almost died laughing when Kacchan ruined the pledge. Right before that when he was asked to say the pledge I was still imagining how he’s going to say it. That was fucking hilarious!!!!!!! It was so hard to take what Deku said after that seriously when Iida was in the background gesturing like mad. I almost died. L O L

And that was so cute when Kirishima tried to break up the tension between Todoroki & Deku. And how he always tries to talk to Kacchan. Why is he such a sweet boiiiiiiiiiiiiio

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Todoroki and Bakugou carried this episode!

After watching the previous OVA, I became more drawn to Todoroki's character and past, and it seems like he's giving it his all in this sports festival to impress his father or something. I'm sure everything regarding this will be revealed this season since it keeps being teased. But, like, holy SHIT. I gotta admit that Todoroki is the strongest character in Class 1-A thus far. He'll totally become one of the next greatest heroes.

Bakugou totally stole the show this episode, too! I really wasn't a fan of him last season, but he's starting to grow on me and is an incredibly hilarious character. His main character energy really is what made me enjoy this episode the most. "Move it, extras!" made me die, but like, in a good way. 💀

Deku had a doubt and damn All Might pressured him so much. But don't worry, our little green hair boy right there might found a way to shouldering his Hero difficult wish!

But anyway, title looks familiar here, don't they?

Just finished the second episode, now i have high hopes. 

Now, the tournament aspect. The Sports Festival is in full swing, and it's giving me those Naruto Chunin Exams vibes. 

Now, I have to be honest here. The main character, Izuku Midoriya, is a bit annoying at times. But let's face it, that's something we often come across with main characters in anime. He is the MC after all.  Nevertheless, Izuku's determination and growth are admirable, and I'm curious to see how he fares in the coming matches.

The cliffhanger at the end of this episode has me incredibly excited for the next one. My Hero Academia knows how to keep us engaged and hungry for the next episode.

In terms of character development, this episode sets the stage for deeper exploration in the future. I am really looking forward for Ochaco Uraraka, backstory.

Ooh, I kinda like how everyone is training and getting ready for the upcoming battle competitions. Event seems to be getting publicity as well.

This was pretty much a buildup episode as it introduces the participants. Obviously, Deku and his class is featured the most so far. I'm actually quite hyped to see how they'll adapt the rest of this arc. A lot of heroes are in this and glad to see some action already as well.

Todoroki is a badass!

I Think it was very interesting to see them use their quirks and see how much they progressed
