| Guys! Something felt off with Endeavor's jacket the moment it vanished! The shoulder pads of his hero costume doesn't match with the cover he's wearing and it made no sense! :O Am I the only one who noticed this? Hawks knows something is going to happen and preffers showing it in action than using words. Interresting >.> Very clever too! Bakugou already dislike him for his first impression though XD Good start for this new arc! The OP and ED are very nice ^^ Also, I'm glad to know that Best Jeanist is ok (it's been a while) ;-; |
 [*]My Completed List [*]♪Listen ► [/list][/left] |
| wow new OP!!! love it so much especially because it's focusing on our favorite trio. finally we are entering cour 2 and things started to get interesting. I've been reaally curious about hawks & the league of villain. Bakugou outsmarting endeavor is really funny, hahaha. even all might said he noticed a 'similarity' between the two. also.. both bakugou and midoriya know about shoto's past. but shoto doesn't know anything about those two T__T I like when hawks thought that endeavour wasn't a really 'bright' person (yea that big dude looks dumb most of the time) but endeavor actually noticed that there was something off about hawks!! he even figured the hints in the book. I must say i'm impressed.... anywayyy can't wait for next episode. I hope the trio can experience and gain something from the internship, get stronger! |
| the animation was kind of crappy in this episode.......anyone noticed? |

Less then 10? Isn’t the season 25 episodes? We’re only on 14 they released the preview for the next episode. it's going to be about internship again. probably after that episode too. so... |
   |
| Ok so what i have deduced till now is hawks is working as a triple agent : 1} Hero public safety commission 2} League of villians 3) Meta liberation army Am i correct, manga readers? |

| Oh snap, new OP by Man With a Mission? This alone makes this season the best one in years. |
| This was a really cool episode. New opening and ending, and in my opinion I think they both suck. I think the opening sucks more than the ending. It was really cool to see Hawks in action, and to see Izuku, Bakugo and Todoroki all interning at Endeavors agency. |
 |
| I 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 like the way this is being adapted! It's giving us the Endeavour Agency Arc but also scattering the build up scenes to the My Villain Academia Arc throughout it which is a brilliant way to keep from wasting time with the build up later on. That scene where Endeavour figured out Hawks's message gave me chills... the villains are rising right under the heroes noses. I think Deku highlighting Hawks's age was important in this episode because the guy is taking on some hella dangerous role in this fight against villains. He's in such a precarious situation right in the heart of the enemy's operation whilst trying to keep it all a secret from anyone but the commission. It's too much for someone so young. |
 |
| I guess it's kind of nice that they're sprinkling in some buildup for MVA during this arc, so when it comes time to backtrack to MVA they won't have to spend too much time on setting things up. We also got some hints regarding Hawks' various allegiances. I might need to listen to the new OP a few more times to see if it'll really grow on me. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| New OP was great, I think it might be one of my favorites of the entire series so far, you can’t go wrong with MAN WITH A MISSION, very good stuff. ED was also great, I love the slower EDs and I think it’ll be a good one as it grows on me. Highlight of the episode for me was finally seeing Burnin, I’m not a manga reader so I’ve been very excited to see her in the show, give me more of her! Episode was pretty good overall as well, Hawks played it really safe when delivering that information. |

| I wonder if they'll . I really liked this episode, but I do feel like they're kinda ruining some things for the anime-onlys. We're so close to getting to the good shit. |
 |
| seems like the plot is really starting to pick up now, kinda excited to see what’s in store for the rest of the season |
 |
| Hawks playing the double agent role is being rather interesting to see. Wonder what he did with/to Jeanist tho. |
theGodde said: although it irritates me there's some kind of secret society that has never been mentioned before, this is something that happens all the time in comic books, and it's kind of part of the charm of superhero storytelling. To me My Hero is skirting this line between comic book meta and anime/manga meta and I feel like it would have benefitted more from dedicating itself to one specific meta rather than just playing it safe. They were actually referenced in season 4. |
|
| Interesting opening. Not my favorite that the series has to offer but it's still cool. Not a fan of the ending but oh well. As for the episode, it's refreshing getting to see hawks again because due to the class battle and all, it's felt like it's been a while. I'm honestly surprised endeavor wasn't accepting of anyone other than shoto with the three of them but I guess it does make sense. |
 |
| New OP and ED and both are super catchy like usual, but I definitely prefer the OP this time. Hawks got a good amount of screentime this episode. After what happened with Endeavor and the Nomo he now only got one more chance to prove himself the the leage of villains and the anti-establishment cause. Up to this point everything seemed normal, but what bothered me a lot was Hawks visited Best Jeanist, which was also a little surprise since we didn't knew what happened to him, and his weird behavior where it looked like he "attacked?" Best Jeanist from the back before it cut to another scene. Does that mean Best Jeanist is his target because of Dabis words "Make it someone other than the number one hero this time"? Not sure who talked to Hawks when he got his coffee, but I immediately recognized Sugita Tomokazu voice. Maybe it was one of the new characters we saw in the OP? The meeting between Endeavor, Midoriya, Bakugo and Todoroki was pretty funny but a moments later interrupted by a villain. As Midoriya mentioned it's crazy how fast Endeavor reacted. The villain himself with his glass ability was no match for Endeavor but it got also interesting in the little conversation with Hawks afterwards. Holy shit Endeavors agency is gigantic with 30 side kicks and over 100 requests a day. At least that means it doesn't get boring for our 3 heroes lol. I really liked the design of Burnin and hope we will see more of her. I wouldn't say Hawks was to roundabout giving Endeavor a book with a code. I mean he gets observed, so obviously he has to be as careful as he can. I'm glad Endeavor was able to notice the message. The liberation army is the enemy and with a number of 100.000 they'll take action in 4 months? That sounds more than just bad and at this point I'm also not sure what action Endeavor, Hawks etc can make to stop that? This was again more of build up episode but nontheless I enjoyed it a lot and can't wait to see how things will go from here. |

theGodde said: I think it's supposed to remain a mystery. However we know Hawks is a good guy, so chances are he wouldn't have killed Jeanist or anything. Considering there was no big news call about it either his fake-out death will appear in the news next episode or Hawks will kidnap Jeanist. The latter will be more interesting because that way it'll make his allegiance appear a little more grey. However this show isn't some S-tier superhero drama so who knows what they'll go with. True. I also would find an possible kidnap more interesting, even if I have no clue what exactly Hawks or eventually the league of villains would do with Best Jeanist. This is a little far-fetched but if we think in a crazy way there's also the possibility of him becoming a new Nomu. Just an idea, so it could also turn out in a complete different way. theGodde said: considering how well he's being watched, this action was still incredibly suspicious. However because of the anti-establishment message of the story, it would seem to anyone in the liberation army supervising him that he's revealing his true opinion to the superheroes, so I suppose it was a smart cover. The final touch was giving some copies to the work study trio, which would have made it seem like his goal was to get the word out rather than specifically target Endeavor. He executed that plan as perfectly as possible, but I still feel like it wasn't the best possible plan to begin with. Either way pretty impressive for the relatively generic shounen storytelling that's been seen throughout this show so far. I too am pretty interested to see how this is turning out. Also very true. This again shows how great Hawks as a great character is. Even with him being in such a difficult position, where just a single mistake or wrong decision could be dire, he keeps his cool and planned/prepared for the best possible outcome a lot of things in advance. I personally really enjoy these little mind games. |

I'm not super worried about it, it seems like they're flipping it, and showing us the post My Villain Academia stuff, probably up to a certain break point, then will hit us with the flashback for all that right afterwards. Still 11 episodes to work with, and I think they'll still kill it. If I had to guess, they want to set things up to get RIGHT INTO IT when S6 starts. If you know what I mean. |
 |
| New OP and ED are cool. I'm so confused about Hawks - is he a villain or hero make up your mind :// |
| We got a new OP and ED! It seems that this new arc will deliver, and a lot. Hawks is indeed doing god's job, can't wait for the next episode. |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| DAMN! Absolutely banger OP performed by MAN WITH A MISSION!!! 5/5 that alone is 5/5 this episode! not only that, the episode is so TENSE because of the impending CHAOS that is about to happen!!! |

| the new OP sounds cool enough and there it is the big war will start 4 months from now |
| Call this OP generic all you want, this is the best one we've had since the first season with The Day by Porno Graffiti. Leave it to Man With a Mission to deliver some form of quality. Anyways, this arc feels like it's about to be some Civil War shit. Gonna be interesting. |
| Don't believe the hype. |
| finally its getting good again. that training arc was such a bore |
| So Hawks is a megatuple agent xD and wow Endeavour does not waste any time at all with his hero work! |
 |
| A new opening, sounds quite nice. We got Hawk, the double agent working for the Villians and or the Heroes. Took down Jeans for some reason. Eri's letter was SO CUTE. Deku cried out a whole river after her mom's emotional speech xD That was funny. Really important what Hawks said to Endavor. Glad that they swapped the two arcs, it's better like this. |
   “You yourself have to change first, or nothing will change for you!” ' |
| Boring episode. Not big fan of new OP. |
| "The future is always blank. Only your willpower can leave footsteps there." "Ruling over death means ruling over life. Death is the climax of life. To have the best death, you must honor life." |
| I have a feeling......I’m going to love Hawks so much. Oh my god and those Endeavor scenes. This arc is going to be wild!!!!!! I want to see Dabi.....like MORE..... The new ED is SO good♡ |
 ꕤ but i’ll probably remember over and over again you were there and everyone else was there — the day we all searched for just one thing ꕤ |
| One of the worst opening for sure. Overall ok episode but last part was interesting. |
 |
| its ok episode - only five flashbacks, minimal Bakugo screentime, some tense buildup and two characters with Sakata Gintoki voice - villain(?) who watched Hawk and some random cop in villain arrest scene |
