| This was a pretty solid episode, if nothing else I like the decision to have Takmaki battle villains that sort of parallel his own character. Not in the same manner mind you, but clearly Overhaul functioned as their Mirio, and that not only made the episode feel more cohesive, but I like that it essentially lead into the finish. It's a weird thing to say that the villains lost the fight because they were friends with each-other, with Tamaki preventing the guy from eating his friend (and I show called he was going to eat a crystal, so that moment was awesome). My point being that the flashback and eventually victory already makes for an effective character moment for Tamaki, but it comes across even stronger when the villains reflect him too, and the highlighted difference between Overhaul and Mirio's methods to be pretty telling, as Overhaul gave them purpose under him while Mirio gave Tamaki by placing him above. Eraser's quick takedown of Tabe was probably my favorite moment of the episode though (either that or Tamaki's victory), it was slick and the later reveal of Tabe's ability further shows off Eraser's cunning. |
| Squidboy's backstory was convoluted asf. I love how the villains constantly explain themselves like a Bond film. I empathized with him but he kinda weak. |
| Wow, Suneater is amazing. |

| I liked this episode. It reminded me of many other characters from other series and things: When I first saw Mirio as a little kid, especially with Mirio's eyes and hair, I instantly thought of Lucas from Super Smash Bros Brawl / EarthBound. Then, in another flashback of Mirio, his jacket reminded me of Ed's from FMA/FMAB and Jotaro's from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure for some reason (though it could be a typical type of outfit I guess). Lastly, the way Tamaki's "sandals" (for lack of a better term) look instantly reminded me of Sasuke's "sandals" from specifially his Naruto Shippuden design. I've attached a picture in case anyone else is trying to see the similarities I found: |

| So we got a little bit of Tamakis backstory and how he met Mirio. I think a lot of people can indentify themselve with Tamakis characteristic. It's definitely more self harm than anything else if you try to be perfect all the time. Nonetheless did he manage he become one of the Big 3 which is amazing. Irinakas mimikry with that boost is no joke. I was wondering why he was so small but that explains it. Also these other 3 villains who came to stop Deku and Co. in combination were serious business. It's amazing how Tamaki is able to use his power, especially when you see his chimaera kraken where he combines things he ate. Suneater is an absolute suiting name for him. |
 |
| The pacing is kinda ass but I like that they're trying to give different side characters more screen time instead of using the same old Bakugou/Todoroki/Iida. |

| Good episode.I like suneater. |
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones! |
| Suneater biting the bullet by facing against three of the Eight Bullets all at once was a very brave and difficult duty for him to take up and he sure ate up the competition! Their teamwork was impressive and their reasons for their unbending loyalty to the Hassaikai actually made me feel a bit of sympathy for them but Tamaki was able to use their bonds and their Quirks to his advantage and awesomely kicked ass. They're all getting closer to saving Eri but there will definitely be a lot more dangerous obstacles on their way further towards their goal. |

| Oh God that was a brilliant episode!! |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| Suneater beat the shit out of those three. |
 |
| You know our main boy has stepped up a rank when he was quick enough to save the police dude while everyone else other than Earser just standing about! |
 To have you, Id give a billion lives A-Chan best girl |
| I'm glad to watch Suneater's backstory and his ultimate comeback as well. :)) |
 |
| Suneater is a cool character I suppose. |
   |
| This was cool. Nice to see Amajiki getting self-confidence. He is powerful that's for sure. Mirio was quite open minded person. This is normal that Amajiki can't become like him. But he has something inside him which tries to find a path. And here he showed that. The villains really had a good teamwork but Amajiki's quick thinking saved him. Mirio did what he must've. But going like this was a bit reckless. Deku seems weak again. I don't understand him sometimes. He was better than this before. However he better think of something. He is good at making strategies. |
| That preview: "Kirishima-kun wa kudakenai". Yep, that's a JoJo reference alright. |
| This time it was Suneater's time to shine. Fight was very shounen-like though. Back and forth and in the end he almost lost but oneshot his enemies. |
| Man This fight was really good.....One time the villains dominated and the other time Suneater did and Yeah finally in the end he won....beating those villains......And Boy Suneater is such a badass....I've taken a liking to him : |
| Suneater is impressive. He's no fool, and appears to be able to get out of many a situation. |
 |
| First big three gets an action and centered episode. Ofc its the gloomy one. Yea that's the handicap for being a good guy hero with no-killing rule. So hard yet satisfying with all the looks on their face when Suneater flip the table. Good one... |

| Mmmm crystal.....needs more pepper. |

| kirishima YESSS and holy shit fatass is also pretty hype icl |

| Suneater's name is proof that Tamaki wants to eat Mirio up like some tasty seafood. 'Squid boy' wouldn't have sounded as cool huh? He's so embarassingly cute with his pointy ears, purple hair, extreme shyness and low self esteem (unsurprisingly, he's a Pisces). Rooting for you emo boy. |
 watching, waiting, commiserating |
