Farmaceut said: Wait i thought this week would be Ep 0 as a recap, but its ep 1? The OP and ED are good,but previous ones were much better. Same here. That's kind of how it was even advertised saying episode 0 today and episode 1 next week. I wonder what happened. I'm not upset or anything, just confused. |

| Well, Boku no Hero Academia is back with its 5th season. The opening song was cute-ish and the ending was quite catchy. . They were playing heroes and villains and again telling everyone's quirks and names. Endeavor as the number one fighting the nomu was cool and Hawks giving support. (I probably wrote the names wrong) And there was Dadi... and then Hawks... Overall nice first episode^^ or episode 0^^ |

yellowheartren said: by scrap do you mean the the parts where the artwork was a bit inconsistent?....I think that the recap ep was a list minute addition but the artwork of reintroducing the characters with their quirks was awesome since umakoshi returned for S5.I struggle to see why some people call this a recap episode, when all we had in lieu of recap was like, what, 2 or maybe 3 short flashbacks. Everything else is a new episode, albeit definitely in a "business as usual" fashion: yet another drill, yet another destroyed area, yet another rescue.... Hell, having watched Heroes Rising just yesterday, and the Kesshi no Survival Kunren OVA earlier today, this one felt even more repetitive than it otherwise should have: more ruins, more dividing up into mostly the same groups (heck, even the Baku-Kiri-Denki threesome got together again, not that that's something to complain about), more inert civilian to rescue.... The Big Three was a nice addition though, to me Amajiki remains the single most relatable one with his aversion to people and being outside, so that's always an extra layer of lol, but then ofc he pushes through because he's just that much better. The OP I'm really indifferent about; but the ED does sound and look great, even just after the initial watch. One thing I really hope we won't see any more of is the introduction of every single character - it's the fifth damn season, everyone knows every damn UA student and permanent support (be it staff, pro hero or villain) by now. I'd also appreciate updated character cards in the middle: a new "profile photo" and some newer/random facts instead of the age-old basics about the age-old original characters would go a long way making them anything but completely pointless. Overall, a decent start to settle back into the universe after - well, fun little fact, we're just one week off from the anniversary of the end of s4 in 2020. Some bits of rust still remain, though, that really should be scraped off... |

Scrape off, as in scratch off the bits of rust - those character introductions and character cards I talked about. They get old after the first season in every anime. And yeah, this is still not a recap episode. |
| straight garbage first episode+garbage opening lmao |

| Alright... Pretty nice start, make us remember our Hero again I like that. I actually marathon this series back in Agustus 2020... So this would be my first time watching it each week... I'm exciting for this season. |
| As expected, the first episode is mainly a reintroduction to class 1-A as before, but I personally don't mind that. It was a good episode, showing how good (most of the time) the teamwork of everyone has become. I did like how Nejire and Amajiri played as the villains for this while Mirio became a victim who needed rescuing from the river. I do admit that seeing Mirio speaking so happily while flowing away in the river was amusing. XD As the OP and ED songs, both of them were pretty good. The OP had that good rhythm that felt satisfying, while the ED's song, as well as the visuals for it, was upbeat and happy. The next episode will get back to the main story, involving Dabi and Hawks. I do wonder why they're meeting together, though... |
| Damn already season 5? Time sure flies, and of course Deku is still the same pathetic character. Still, the teamwork of everyone really showed how much they've improved. |

| I really enjoyed the episode Its good to see my boy Shoto and the others Great way to start the season🔥 |
Natsude_tanaka said: man! i missed uraraka's ass so much, finally this haha this is what koikatsu and pixiv are for tbh lmao they should make an r+ version so we could see Momo boobs when she does her thing :v 1st episode and Bakugo already doing Bakugou things :D anyway, 1st episode and we already have a lot of action nand lots of funny moments the senpai wanting to go home was funny the other senpai just going to the water was hilarious the girl senpai getting mad at them for not listening was also funny |
fav "new" girls from winter <3 (2 extra girls this time, but 36 seasonals so whatever) ... click sig for older seasons and more possible picks |
| It feels like Studio BONES hates this show, I know Episode 1 is just a recap filler EP, but even the past seasons had absolutely no passion in them. It's been pretty hard watching through some of these Episodes just to get to the last Episode that kinda has a payoff and some good animation. |
| I reallly start to hate the first episode of every season of BNH |
 |
| Not exactly a good start from me. It's not like I forgot every character's quirk and why they are even attending a hero academy... though they all are quite forgettable. Anyways, I usually get tired of the typical school drama/action stuff they do, so I am really only 'hoping' to see the following arc. I better not see any people whine about the ever-so-slight changes from manga to anime. oh and, cool ending song. Something to look forward to. |
| Another season of MHA, another premiere episode that has me bored throughout, lol. I think it's fine that they wanna do a recap on the characters at the start of every season, because I bet in Japan, there's kids that probably start the series midway in. That being said, this season premiere was probably better than the last two season's premieres. The OP and ED is nice though. I'm glad MHA's keeping that streak of good OPs going. |
 |
| Nice to have this back, filler start like with every season and recaps of all the quirks and short footage from the last season. The soundtrack is hype as always, I've missed that. Kirishima entrance was pretty epic. Mirio MVP though, falling into the river on purpose made me laugh so much. OP and ED are great, looking forward to the rest of the season. |
 |
| "training complete" yess we did it, *not so fast.... KAABOOOMMM!! |
 |
| Decent start, I feel bad for the staff who have to think of an entire ep just for introducing characters lol |
| For a recap/filler episode this was great. So happy to see these characters again 🤩 |
| Well, is the recap with original content we were expecting alright. |
 |
| I mean, I didn't expect them to just suddenly give up on doing a reintroduction episode, but oh boy… this was even more shitty than usual. Well, gotta hope for the rest of the season to not contain useless fillers |
| Pretty good start to the new season! The op/ed tracks were really catchy. Bakugo exploding Tamaki at the end was hilarious! |

| I didn't like this episode very much. |
| I don't know if this is considered episode 0 or episode 1, but anyway that was a pretty good anime original episode and seasonal reintroduction to the characters, not that I need it, but it is appreciated. Love the new OP and ED, especially the ED, the peggies don't miss. Mirio just flowing into the river is fucking hilarious, and R.I.P. Amajiki senpai, he just wanna go home, he'll be best of friends with Ishigami. I'll take any light hearted shit I can get right now, if you know what I mean. Well, looking forward to the official start of the season next week. |
 |
| I honestly needed this episode to remind me of what happened in the previous season. I should have read the manga which I've been putting off for quite some time. Bakugo being Bakugo was hilarious. Poor Amajiki. XD |
 |
| When I heard that this would be another recap episode I set my expectations pretty low, but to my surprise it wasn't recap at all outside of the Endeavor scene in the beginning and the re-introduction of everyone's quirks. Instead it's another training episode, and as far as those go it's one of the better ones. Maybe it's because this is our first time back and I missed these characters, but it was entertaining enough seeing them all work together and take on the big three. Mirio was the highlight as always. I'll certainly take this over the 2 part OVA we got last year, which I found pretty dull tbh. Overall, not much to say, the final scene sets up our true return to the main story with Dabi injuring Endeavor I'm guessing? And Hawks is the traitor that was hinted at before? Either way next week will be interesting. The OP/ED were also fine, nothing too special but wholesome and catchy enough that nail the MHA vibe. |
| Are ya winning, diners? |
| Overall, I liked this episode. Maybe the reintroduction of every character of class 1-A was a bit unnecesary (tho I laughed a bit when Present Mic introduced Bakugo's hero name as "undecided"). Mirio as the victim was really funny and Hado played her role very well too. About the heroes of class 1-A, I think I gained a bit of insight into Hagakure: She is not only invisible, she can manipulate light to also create those flashes. That means that maybe in the future she would let others (and we too) see her as she truly is (that is, deactivating her power). Aand I liked both the OP and the ED. Not as much as OPs and EDs of past seasons, but these aren't bad either. |
 |
I would like to know who is the wise man who continues to introduce us to the characters in the fifth season. A waste of time this chapter for nothing. WE WANT WAR NOW, NOT KNOWING THE NAMES OF EVERYONE FOR 4858th TIME |
| Recap for a bit. Like 5 mins. Was the final part reanimated or maybe a new voice recording used? It seems slightly different. New opening so good, not great. Maybe it gets better the more it will play. Alright, so it's a drill for the students. The third years are playing villains, etc. Not bad. Bakugo is irritating as ever, when will he get his character development? ED theme was sweet, I never do expect from an ED's visuals. So Dabi was there after the Endeavor fight. And Hawk went to meet him later that night. Does not seem like a betrayal but well see. |
