I really liked Selkie. He was briefly mentioned in the manga. I wonder if his design was by Horikoshi.

It was a fun episode, albeit a generic one. Can't be helped, it was filler so it needed to be self-contained. Plus, have to flesh out the characters a little for anime-onlies who have to wait in-between seasons for new content.


Do you know when he was mentioned? According to the wiki it was chapter 126, but I couldn't find where he was mentioned.

Ugh this episode was bad. What a big contrast to the rest of the show. I don't even read the manga.
Although Naruto's fillers were worse, it sure reminded me of them. I hope we never get a couple of these after eachother.

Probably cause it can be considered filler as this is anime original, not part of the manga. At least I don't remember anything about this.

See guys, not all filler is bad.
it was just average. The 1st episode of FMA: Brotherhood was filler (ice alchemist was anime- original) despite being a remake. And nobody noticed. XD

Even mangakas watch filler. LOL

I liked the episode but I hated the way Froppy made her decision. That is not a "hero" decision at all by not following what the bad guy was saying and putting the other hero's life on the line. She prioritized capturing the bad guys and securing the shipment than saving their lives. If the bad guy did kill the hostage, she would be scarred for life, taking responsibility for her wrong decision. It just happened to be perfect timing that the captain was there to save them and prevent the worst result ever, which is them dying.

Sorry I went all dark theme into this, but on hostage situations you want to teach people to value life over material things even if you fail your objective. Don't try to be a hero if it involves risking other people's lives.

Interesting filler episode. This wasn't in the manga so maybe the show won't adapt the next arc or something. I don't know.

Well, Froppy-chan got some screen time and it was pretty good.

It was kind of boring really but that's ok it was expected from the preview of previous episode. Not all episodes will be grand slams.

And it's not just anti-filler stuff either, filler can be interesting but not much really happened in this one. Even as Tsuyu fan I would expect her to do more.

I enjoyed Bakugo trying to talk "nicely" to childern more than anything Tsuyu did.

Another great episode! Ya know for a "filler" episode this anime knows how to keep the viewers interested and properly use the episode to develop characters. I have never been disappointed with this anime and the episodes that have a break in the action because they are still great episodes! Well done!

Next week they're back at school and All Might has something important to tell Midoriya...big reveal incoming and I can't wait!

Heh. Here's a moment of your Froppy getting rekt :v



On a serious note, I was thinking for a while now and this episode just made me more to ask this silly question -
How the heck some superheroes even copulate in the series? How they generally tackle that problem? lmao
I mean most of them are humans with special quirks but here we have some monsters looking guys who are entirely different in appearance and structure. It won't be far fetched to label them as different species XD I've been really wondering about that for sometime now haha.

Also, Sirius was cute. I'd be totally in for the idea to have her as Tsuyu's replacement~

A pretty good filler episode. I was hoping there would be focus on other characters who have been absent lately, but this was not a bad episode.
I still can't take the name Froppy too seriously but you know what I like the character so:
I"M EXCITED TO SEE MORE FANTASTIC FROG THEMED ADVENTURES FROM THE FUN LOVING FROPPY!
I love alliteration.

Can't wait for the next episode.

On the first page in the second Bakugo panel Tsuyu mentions Selkie. Although its spelled Selky here.

Of all the students that deserve a filler episode, Tsuyu is top of my list. She's one of the most genuinely interesting characters that they have not yet developed as of this point, and getting to see her internship and all that she went through was perfectly fine with me.

Going by what the final arc should be, I'm guessing that they had too much extra time on their hands when planning things out. Expecting to see a perfectly executed and non-rushed end of this season.

A good episode, but I can't help but think that a character with lovecraftian origins deserves better than being a minor one-episode baddie.

God damnit, I thought I had heard "Innsmouth" somewhere before. Good catch.

I read "The Shadow over Innsmouth" literally yesterday, so my jaw dropped once I saw the name and appearance of this episode's villain. Not many people seem to have noticed this reference, though.

Cute episode. Glad to see that Asui got screen time. And we finally get to know the secret behind One for All and how All Might got fucked up. Bet you they eat up time with unneeded drama and make it run two episodes.

Anime original episode luckily its only for one episode,it would be a real shame if they ruined what has otherwise been a great S2 and major improvement from S1 by making the rest AO.


This was the only anime original episode this season will have. TBH I liked how they did this. I hope we get one original episode a season that focuses on developing the side cast.

Selkie is a canon character though because his name was mentioned in the manga on the first page of chapter 126. Considering that, I wouldn't be surprised if Horikoshi makes Sirius canon as well. I mean he even introduced two fan made characters so far, so it wouldn't be too surprising. Horikoshi might've actually done her character design himself considering he also designed all new characters for the OVAs by himself.

I actually enjoyed the episode, especially the part where Froppy had to make a really tough decision as a newb to either save someone and fail the job or succeed with the job and possibly let someone die. This was a really good chance for some awesome character development towards being a hero. However, I didn't like, or more accurately, hated how the anime handled Froppy's choice. They should've at least shown some kind of consequence for Froppy's decision, like Sirius being seriously injured or really close to death, but instead, they have a happily ever after scene where everything ended up fine. In reality, these kinds of results don't show up too often, or rather, almost NEVER do. I'm sorry but this really irked me and made me disappointed of the episode.

In defense, this IS just a filler episode and this isn't part of the manga so I may be taking things too seriously. I haven't read the manga so I don't know the pace or the progression of the show.

This episode legitimately served no purpose besides taking away all the suspense from the anime. The captain threatened froppy's friend, and yet in the end did absolutely nothing to her. Where's the death and destruction? it doesn't matter what froppy answered.

Also I happen to despise filler. All that waiting, only to see an episode that advances the storyline by 0. So good!!!! They should have at least showed some sort of significant character development.
