| Lemillion going all out! Awesome episode |
 |
| A good way of removing Lemillion, the biggest obstacle in Midoriya's #1 hero rank in the future. The author did a good job on removing him very nicely. |

| This the most visually underwhelming, ambition-lacking episode of MHA. This fight was THE highlight of the arc, one of the best moment of the whole manga. The problem is not that they butchered it, I'm pretty sure anime only will enjoy the hell out of it. It's just that they made it a fucking 1:1 adaptation, with little to no sakuga. Like, didn't they see what Mirio's quirk could offer in terms of choreography ? Couldn't they have expanded on it a bit ? But the cherry on the fucking cake what that god-awful slideshow of Mirio fighting quirkless. I actually teared up from how bad it was. For six months we were told that the schedule was great, and for the most memorable moment of the arc they made one of the worst work of adaptation. And I know for sure that this god damn movie is to blame. This definetly sounds like I'm overreacting, and I won't deny it, MHA's a huge part of my life, and the anime has proven so many time that it could turn an awesome scene into a legendary one. But this time, it failed hard. |

Dunno why you're trying so hard to be a troll. |

| HACKs! 🤢🤮 |
| Lot of people are unhappy with the new episode of HeroAca because of the production values. Really disappointing and unfortunate considering the schedule has never been as great. Though perhaps that lack of ambition is also what made them finish the episodes early. https://twitter.com/Bloodyredstar/status/1210881924971089920 This week's episode of My Hero Academia was a bit of a disappointment considering this was one of the hyped moments of the arc and hype enough to warrant it's own key visual so yeah...At least we're gonna get one good ep soon. https://twitter.com/YonkouProd/status/1210884860245508096 |
Devil_Food said: Why are you copypasting the posts of two literal who's? lol those 2 people are well known in the anime social media sphere one is a sakuga expert and the other is a known anime leaker |
| man, they could make the fight better than this right? i was re read the chapter again and expecting some sakuga or atleast decent animation. but slideshow? thats way out of expectations really. this is not totally bad, just a bit disappointed with that slideshow. this should have been better than previous episodes |
 |
| This is where all the talent went this season. Looks good but the directing is still all over the place. Sad they didn’t animate the Mirio and Tamaki connection scene, it might crop up at the beginning of the next episode but disappointed.  |

Devil_Food said: deg said: lol those 2 people are well known in the anime social media sphere one is a sakuga expert and the other is a known anime leaker No they're not. Yonkou has also been repeatedly wrong about a lot of shit and doesn't know anything about animation. The other guy is a literal who. a sakuga expert you know those people that invented/know what sakuga is and educate the public of how anime production works and also got a lot of contact with animators in the industry on twitter |
Devil_Food said: deg said: a sakuga expert you know those people that invented/know what sakuga is and educate the public of how anime production works and also got a lot of contact with animators in the industry on twitter He doesn't do and the majority of those people don't have connections to the industry. twitter is big in japan so a lot of japanese animators are using twitter too and the sakuga community talks like even retweets the posting of those japanese animators the sakuga community also did the sakugabooru https://www.sakugabooru.com/ |

Devil_Food said: xShinigami3125 said: Is it just me or was this episode pretty weak visually ? I mean the final clash was just a slide show and the animation in the entire episode was rather limited, also correct me if I m wrong, but did they reuse that shot of the glowing fist from the earlier seasons? No just you and a bunch of stupid people like you. miros said: Yes it's kidda weak and also yes the did reused No they didn't you blind idiot. Go back and watch the damn episodse you damn retard , yes unfortunately it's true , Not to metion this season has been plagued with a bunch of still frame shots at important moments and now this slide shit show , i wasn't specting sakugas everywhere but some kind of animation would be good because if i wanted to see still images i would just read the damn manga |
| lol Phantom Menace. Blonde Mickey Mouse is a prequel meme fan. |
Modernoir said: miros said: not really there is like what less than 10 chapters in the manga left and nothing much happen in those maybe if they reallllllllllllllllllllllllllly stretch it Not true at all, they can easily wrap up MP100 in a short 3rd season or 2 OVAs. 1. Mob psycho bombed in japan 2. they will not make a season shorter than 12/13 episodes and there isn't enough material for that (the 2 Ovas are possible but again the anime bombed) |
Modernoir said: And people were saying this season had better direction than season 3... Lol... Man, what a bummer, they underwhelmed with the Red Riot/Fatgum vs Rappa fight and now they reduced one of Mirio's strongest moments ever into a slideshow. Oh well, it looks like Bones are at least saving the budget for MP100's 3rd season, fits that the superior shounen gets the better treatment. http://i.4cdn.org/a/1577536421076.webm LITERALLY A SLIDESHOW This is just fucking embarrassing. I was willing to hold back all my criticism on the way this arc had been handled in terms of its underwhelming animation in the hopes they were saving the best for the best moments, but seriously? An actual slideshow? How can anyone fucking excuse this shit? Seriously, I expected way better from Bones. Seriously seems like this season got shafted in favor of the movie getting all the talented animators and worthwhile cuts, what a fucking joke. And if that's not the case then it's even more pathetic that they've cut corners on arguably one of the best highlights of this entire arc. Never thought I'd say the manga version of this arc seems way, way fucking better right now but hey that's where we are. AwesomeAlfie27 said: I am going to say something weird The "Animation" part is just a part of an "animated" show, not the most important one. If people only care about animation then there is no reason for this medium to exist, or to create interesting story/characters who actually *Blend* with the animation style Gintama doesn't have crazy animation, and it doesn't need it(Crazy Sakuga would ruin it) Am i trying to be defensive? No, i don't even think i am a huge fan of MHA, i am just tired of people whining about animation, from OPM S2 (negatively) to Demon Slayer(positively) Were S2 and S3 animated better? Yes Do i care? No What about the episode? Like always, i watch MHA for the writing, world building and storytelling And, like always, i liked all of it, Mirio is a great character and some consequences will be felt Animation wise? I thought it was good, especially the slideshow part, a quirkless guy shouldn't fight with cfazy flips or incredible action, he is just a normal dude, the most important part was the meaning behind it I will never ever understand this logic when it comes to anime skimping out on the animation aspect of a fucking animated show, may as well just film someone flipping through the manga while the voice actors read out their lines and play music at certain scenes if it's that easy to please some of you people. Wonder why you quoted me Because i was not defending this episode, Bones or MHA, hell i said that i'm not that big of a MHA fan I just said why i don't care Also, this can't be defined as bad animation on its own Bad animation on its own can be defined with these examples:Escanor v Meliodas(Or all of SdS season 3)-Beerus v Goku(Db Super) - Dororo Ep.13(Or was it 14)-Any low budget isekai in the previous seasons Can you honestly, without trolling or hating, say that is at those levels? Skimping? Not my point If Animation is all that matters, then why should the authors try to create something unique? I present the Gintama example again, good animation but nothing special, nevertheless amazing anime with its own unique style |
| May our sweet and Merciful Madoka be with you |
| good episode, but I think lacked the "oomph" from previous seasons. Maybe I'm not quite feeling it, but I'm quite bummed out by the whole "Mirio losing his Quirk"-thing. Would it have been that bad for Eri to get shot by her own bullet? |
| The whole fight between Lemillion and Overhaul was very tense. It was close from start to finish, but I'm thankful that Deku and the others have arrived in time to help out. The big talking point of the episode was the animation and directing, though. For me, the animation wasn't bad, but it did feel underwhelming compared the big fights from the previous seasons and the use of static shots near the end with some "slideshow" animation was going to be controversial. However, the fight still delivered when it came to tension and soundtrack. The art quality hasn't dipped, unlike some parts of the animation, which helped make the more intense part of the fight even better. No denying that the animation could be a bit better, not helped by the upcoming second movie being made at the same time, again, but the amount of childish ranting from other users here is just pathetic. The criticisms of this episode is justified, of course, but some users here make it a FAR bigger deal than it is. It's like OPM season 2 all over again. ¬_¬ |

| Lol, I wonder if "Phantom Menace" being changed to "Phantom Threat" was to avoid copyright claims from Disney and Star Wars? |

| Pretty dope episode. When it comes to characters and sound, it was pretty well done. But I understand why people are dissatisfied with the quality (still-shots) of the episode. Regardless of the still-shots, Mirio was a badass this episode. But that cliffhanger... |

| Did the animators plan the episode on Powerpoint but forget to get rid of the Powerpoint aspect when producing the animation? I was hoping for something more during the final scenes, but still a good episode nonetheless |
