That was a really nice episode. Honestly though that after credit scene. That monkey at the end is the real hero. Its so nice to see something like that and his talk about people who believe there is no do-overs was really good.

Gentle criminal is the best thing of this season. It had so much heart behind it. I much prefer this over the first arc of this season. Emotional quality over flare.

Damn, this episode seriously made me tear up! They did such a good job translating everything to an animated medium! And Eri's smile is the best! So glad they did it justice!

eri chan smiled uwu

glad the performance went well.
this episode was so cheesy lmao
kyoka got her moment. i liked the part that showed her parents and when she decided to go to school to be a hero instead of a musician.

sad what happened to la brava and gentle but im glad it ended the way it did
la brava still got taken in for questioning, which makes sense.

are we really not going to get any league of villain development in this arc?? and where did that gigantic monster thing in the forest that gran torino and the police saw that one time go?? it seems like they started telling about it and then completely forgot about it and expected the audience to forget about it too lmao

Seeing Eri smiles was the best thing in the episode, i loved the way they showed her overcoming her depressing dark past with overhaul and embracing her new life, also Mirio reaction was heartwarming.

Hado was absolutely beautiful and graceful at the beauty pageant, was not surprised at all when she won.

I have absolutely no idea how that eyelashes chick won the previous year especially when she was competing against Hado, maybe every single person in the crowd was blind? who knows.

no action but still top tier episode.

I repeated the performance scene thrice! It would have been better if they sticked to Japanese language, though. Lol at Iida's awkward dance moves, and Bakugo's fired up as usual. Eri's smile is priceless uwu

This arc is surely better than the previous one, but it is just average. However, it managed to do one thing BNHA always fails, making a decent villian.

Gentle Criminal is not a great villian by any means, and I'm sure most don't even take him seriously, but at least he has HUMAN depth to himself with his backstory and it makes sense. Yes, his backstory still lacks too much detail to make it good, but it still succeed in creating a (somewhat) parallel him and Deku. I could also feel his urge to become a good person.

I honestly don't care much about the festival, but I don't have any big problems with it either. Not bad.

This entire episode was incredible. From the tears at Gentle's backstory (and getting a second chance!), to the incredibly heart-lifting and wholesome festival that not only made Eri smile but gave the entire Class 1-A crew a much-needed slice of life arc. Deku giving Eri a homemade candy apple as a "surprise" was the cherry on top to this episode.

Forgot to watch this since ep 14, marathon through it and I just had to post for this episode.

This was one of the best chapter I read in manga and seeing it in anime made me love it even more.

Seeing Eri smile is the best thing ever.

Even if the dance was "cring-worthy", it's meant to be like that as to be funny and thus make everyone laugh and smile. If you just do a regular concert, people won't be laughing at all, they'll just scream like usual, which won't make Eri smile.

Also, Gentle and Brava both had their issues growing up and ended up on the wrong path, but they never truly harmed anyone on purpose. They're basically a type of "vigilantes" (IE: American superheroes before being recognized by governments, Marvel, DC, etc etc)

Such a sweet and hearthwarming episode.

Damn Gentle you're definitely a true gentleman in trying to protect La Brava from any punishment. Good thing Midoriya mentioned that Gentle just wanted to prank the Yuei. He realized that he maybe also could have ended up like this without All Might.

The school festival was amazing. Bakugous temper at the beginning is definitely something else. Such a nice song and Kyokas voice is so beautiful. The little flashback of her was also a nice little bonus. I guess one of the higlights was finally seeing Eri-chan smiling. Mirios reaction on this made it even harder to hold back my tears. ;_;

Midoriyas kept his promise and gave Eri-chan a homemade candy apple. I'm sure she won't forget this day ever.

Damn I felt that at the end and I'm so relieved that Gentle is getting a second chance. I hope we will him again in the future :)

Start to finish, they crammed all the heart warming shit they could into this episode.

It made for an awesome watch, but I'm worried the season is going to run out of steam before it ends.

Only one way to find out- onto the next episode!

So..... that's all? The plot device finally smiled but the build up was so rushed and uninspired that I didn't care about anything. One of the most cringiest anime scenes I've ever watched.

The filler arc is over, THANKS GOD....it's a shame that the reputation of one of the best villains in the series was damaged by this arc that could easily be a movie or OVA because it feels so disconnected that it's embarrassing.

1/5

This whole arc in general was pretty fun and wholesome (especially this episode).
I can only feel pity for those whose cynicism prevented them from enjoying it, because apparently any episode that doesn't have a world-shattering plot twist or a huge sakuga-filled battle is considered "filler" now.

Sure, Eri was able to smile, but at what cost? I hope Gentle and La Brava can come out of this ok. I still think that a spinoff focusing on those two would be really compelling. They have great back stories and a lot of potential for development.

Jiro was looking pretty hot up on stage.

The song itself was decent, I enjoyed the Funi! dub of it. But damn, this episode was sad. The performance was fun?? Though the Gentle Criminal arc ended poorly. Hopefully we'll see a comeback before the season ends?? Two more episodes remain.

The entire dance scene was so unbelievably cheesy but at least Jirou's little flashback was nice.

The parodies in the play was hilarious.

Eri was cute throughout her episode. Especially with how she described the performance afterwards.

just fucking cringe all around, I guess because 99% of the characters are still undeveloped crap regardless of how many on-the-spot flashbacks you give them

When Eri started smiling, I started to sob - She deserves so much happiness ;-;

Overall, I found this episode really good but at the same time, the characters gave off a cringy vibe especially when they were dancing at the festival

Their performance might not have been as exciting as I would've liked probably because of the dancing parts that weren't intense enough to get you to dance along and Jirou's song being entirely in English was an acquired taste for me. It definitely would've been a lot better if they went all in on the Japanese Rock vibe than taking a different approach but I ended up enjoying the song more through the music video edit that had better cuts which helped focus on the song itself more at least.

Seeing Eri finally smile was such a rewarding moment. She was just a little girl but she went through all that horrifying stuff throughout her entire life so seeing her start to enjoy life and feel happy without having to worry about Chisaki anymore is how things should be.

I'm honestly very happy that the cops in charge of interrogating the two was actually considerate of their life situations and didn't see them as hopeless irredeemable criminals. He definitely deserves a second chance so I felt really emotional when I found out that there's hope for them after all.

That after credit scene is such a nice scene. First time I saw it I almost teared up. Its just so nice to see that type of response to someone going down the wrong path. I absolutely love that line the monkey dude says about "guys who say theres no second chances either dont try or are inpatient for results". Tbh I dont see this much with the chance for redemption in this format. Its really nice. I hope he eventually can turn his life around with the help of him and the police and maybe someday become a hero instead.

This Gentle-La Brava duo could still be used in the future as repentant villains and become support type hero duo. May be they could give them a slack since their crimes weren't serious and they were just awkward,misunderstood people to begin with. May be they could talk sense to Gentle that if they repent, they could give him a temporary hero license. I see great potential for his almost-Luffy-like quirk which can be useful to Deku. Heck, Id say they can be a great side-kick for Deku..I hope they would do that..
