| HACKs! 🤢🤮 |
| All Might fight was really touching. USS :D |
| "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." |
| All Might´s Seiyuu is just soo amazing xd This is by far the best voice performance I have heard so far this year xd |
| How I love a game |
| This was the most brilliant episode I've seen in this anime. Easily beating out every other fight. Fucking hell though, this shows gets a kick from making me emotional over and over again. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| This is not my favorite fight in the series but I would be lying if I said I didn't enjoy the heck out of it. Seriously I felt like I was part of the crowd when I was first reading it. |
 |
| Damn I wish the forum was up when this episode aired, the hype would have been exilarating to watch. But whatever, THIS WAS F***ING PERFECT. The music, the voice acting (god bless Kenta Miyake), the animation...they nailed absolutely everything they could have nailed. And the embers of One for All exploding into the UNITETO STAAATES OFU SEMAAAAAAAASH is a fantastic addition to the manga and definetly One of my favorite animation moment of all time. 11/10 |
| All for One is too evil! Tomura is the grandson of All Might's sensei, what will he do now? United States of Smash was EPIC! All Might used everything he had, Deku is the one to carry on the legacy. |

| ALL MIGHT! ALL MIGHT! ALL MIGHT! ALL MIGHT! |
| “I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy |
| i'm just gonna say a few words: UNITED STATES OF SMASHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! |
| The fight scenes were great, the crowd cheering for the "normal" All Mighty was awesome, but that final Power up didn't really do it for me, at least he's now weakeaned for life, but the United States of Smash left a poor taste in my mouth 2.5/5 |
 |
| This episode was beautiful and those words the camera reminding midoriya of what he is to face rendered me to tears as it denotes the end of all might and midoriya has to now take the reins of being this symbol |
 |
| OMG! How? How? How can this be so epic? I’m speechless, All Might, you are truly All Might! You gave it all, and you finished your job. I still can’t believe he won, I was expecting him to die or be in an almost dead state, but no… he won! OMG! And how? In the most epic way! You are the hero we need but not the one we deserve. So everyone has seen his “true form”, I hope this will change Endeavour’s mind a little and make him go easier with his competition to be nº1, hope he will now realize how hard & though is to be nº1 and never disappoint everyone. But damn, One for All is so strong wow! If he is this strong I can’t even imagine how strong will the next villains be. Now it’s up to you little Midoriya, you must fulfill the rest of his duty! This pose...<3 @Old_School_Akira |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| Oh wow, not only was it such an exciting and powerful battle, but I also totally didn’t expect All Might to use up what was left of his power so fast! Deku’s still pretty inexperienced, things might get tough if villains decide to go after them again soon >_< |
  |
| Shimura Nana was very pretty. She reminds me of Edward Elric’s master from FMAB named Izumi Curtis for some reason. Also, it was confirmed in this episode that she’s related to man child, Shigaraki. AFO is fucking ugly. He should keep his mask intact to avoid making babies and puppies cry. Gran Torino is the voice of reason while All Might is getting overly emotional. Villains use a hero’s weakness: friends, family, loved ones, past, etc. to get the upperhand and he’s being played. All Might’s true form has finally been revealed and I’m surprised people didn’t tear him down as much as I thought they would. I’m glad his fellow pro heroes came to help him in any way they could. Jesus that battle between All Might and AFO was fucking epic. One of the best, if not, THE BEST fight so far. My heart was aching for All Might because he was struggling and so many people put their hopes on him. If he failed, imagine what people would say about him and how he would feel being unable to carry on his former master’s wishes. I’m just glad that All Might is still alive. I hope he lives long enough to witness Deku become the greatest hero ever (like he mentioned in the first episode of the first season).All Might won’t be able to fight anymore. “UNITED STATES OF SMASH!” |
| 臭い- |
| the after and all might revolution..wow |
 |
| So. Damn. Awesome. 1st and 2nd seasons were just fun to watch, but first half of 3rd is solid 10/10. |
| If the forums were active when this episode came out, there would be 10+ pages worth of replies, easily. |
| 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. |
| An episode of crazy with these revelations! The "United States of Smash" I thought it was "United States of America". xD Otherwise the fight is CRAZY!!! |

| THE MOST EPIC EPISODE UNITED STATES OF SMAAAAASH I FELT LIKE I WAS A PART OF CROWD TOO |
| Damn I just saw that fight, Its really f**king awesome!!!! I was literally crying and cheering for all might, I thought he would die, but im glad he didn't....this episode is enough for me to like the whole series. |
 |

|
| They've done a great job of showing us the importance of All Might being a symbol of peace, so that's why I feel I was actually cheering for him. It wasn't just a physical battle with this big bad dude but an internal battle about his own inadequacies (not being able to save everyone: Bakugo getting captured TWICE, Nana's death, Shigaraki the grandson in the hands of evil). And like, you actually felt that. Not like Midoriya reaching 1000% earlier this season - that didn't do it for me. There's too many moments in this series that feel anticlimactic or shallow, but this is the first time I feel I can say wow. That was thoroughly amazing. "Next, it's you're turn" - perfect superhero ending line. |

| I actually thought that Oru Mighto's master and Tomura Shugaraki were mother and son when All for one said her name Nana Shimura in the previous episode lol cause Tomura and Shimura sound the same and now it's revealed that they really are related. Anyway, that fight was awesome and all but imagine if Eraserhead was there and he disabled All for one's quirk or should I say quirks, for even just a couple of seconds then one serious punch from Oru Mighto would probably be enough to grind that mofo to dust. Just saying. - |
 |
| Really worried for Izuku now that we know that AFO knows he has OFA I'll never forget this scene. As the world cheers All Might's victory, Izuku can only sob because he knows the true meaning behind his final words on the screen. ;_; And now we're heading into territory that I didn't spoil from the manga! How will the world change when the Symbol of Peace retires? |
| Now that...that was Heroic. The Symbol of Peace shines through one last time. |
 |
| OH My f..ng GOD. now, that's what I call an episode. this was freaking epic, I've always loved All Might (at least, since I'v been watching the show ^^), he is the best ever, he's not just a great hero, but a great person, no wondering, he's a symbol. That guy is everything that the word heroic could mean even though he's in a really bad shape. And now his power is gone T_T poor Deku... but at least his teacher is still alive, I will be crying for days when it is time for All Might's death T_T (enough credit for AM, where is my love Aizawa ^^) |
| Best episode, I fucking cried |
| Let justice be done, though the heavens fall. |
| Damn that ending, RIP ALL MIGHT! Really totally epic episode but so sad, I really wonder if we'll see All Might again after this, but with this kind of development I actually doubt it. Still one hell of an epic episode and I really do wonder what will happen next! |
 |
| "United states of... SMASH." Shit, I laughed. I was so invested and emotional, and then I laughed. |
...At least let me finish.   |
| God dang it... this has to be one of the best anime fights I've seen... phew, every serious fight with All Might always leaves me overwhelmed. I hope this isn't the end of All Might... I really do... |
 |
| This episode just blew me away! The climax of this fight between All Might and All for one is purely an exhilarating battle, with all of those animations in its full glory and All Might being badass with that United States of Smash, THE FIGHT WAS EPIC!!! But that's not the main reason why this fight is so good. The fact that All Might managed to persevere through what should be an impossible challenge by going further than 'beyond the limit' and the fact that he maintains the symbol of peace by defeating All for one are what made this fight so satisfying and amazing! In addition to that, the connection All Might has with his sensei (previous holder of One for all), his students and everyone, in general, makes the fight all the more so emotional! The moment All Might said "Next, it's your turn!" Is like the cherry on top. It symbolized that the torch has been completely passed over to Deku now and that he's the one that shall be the Symbol of Peace... Man, this actually made me tears up! All those emotional scenes relating to All Might have all lead up to this final short message! It's perfect... All Might will always be in the people's hearts. |

| This episode is easily one of the best, if not THE BEST, episode in the entire Boku no Hero Academia so far in all the 3 seasons aired. In fact, I would even call it one of the best (or maybe the best scenes) in the manga storyline imo. It's so packed with heartrending emotions and epic battle scenes, and the ending signifies the end of an era- the end of the Symbol of Peace and with the torch being passed down to Midoriya now. This was an superb episode and seriously amazing. |
  |
| By far the best episode I saw so far in Boku no Hero even if it was also the most emotional. If All Might didn't stopped All for Ones attack the woman behind him would have died. Frustrating to see All Might shrinking because he used almost all of his power. Everyone was so shocked. Endeavor couldn't believe what he saw but can blame him for screaming at All Might. He was always the number 2 and even if he didn't showed it he had a lot of respect for him. We also saw the master of All Might and first owner of One for All. I can't believe Shigaraki is her grandson. All for One was also the who killed All Mights master. I couldn't even count how many abilities All for One activated in his arm. This is just crazy and seemed so unfair. Especially with All Might and back against the wall. He went so far beyond his limit. I was crying like for almost the whole second half of the episode. UNITED STATES OF SMASH was just out this world. Omg such a crazy and beautiful moment. I don't think Bones could have made it better. This exceeds the smash in the last episode of season 1 by so much. And not to forget All Mights va Miyake Kenta is just a genius. He made this scene absolute perfect. I had never thought All Might would win this. But now he also lost his One for All and will be just normal person. I think Bakugou also understood why Deku was crying. Man this scene was so emotional ;_; Next episode should be interesting. We will never forget you All Might. PLUS ULTRA!! |
 |
| Damn All Might gave me so many chills You are next |
 V I S I T M Y 【P R O F I L E 💕】 |
| ALL MIGHT, YOU WILL ALWAYS BE THE MIGHTIEST TT0TT LOVE YOUUUUUUUU I'm so happy and sad at the same time /SOBSSSSSSSSSSSSSS He was epic and badass and amazing and #1, yaaasssssss ;A; Really surprising and lovely how everyone accepted All Might's skelly form and still cheered him on TTuTT Good for you, #1 :') I'm just thankful he didn't die TT^TT that's all we could ask for, honestly Q~Q a victory, and his life <3 Truly amazing. The torch has been fully passed on officially. |

| Incredible episode! It had me gasping and cheering like mad... All Might was the bamf hero we all know and love, and seeing how everyone was cheering him on was just _へ__(‾◡◝ )> I'm pretty sure All for One's gonna escape prison at some point... |
| i cried so much during this fight that by the end of it i was devastated. i actually watched it with my girlfriend on the phone and man, it was so emotional we couldn't get past this episode. felt really bad for all might when all those here's came to help but said they couldn't do nothing, it was all on him. the man was already beyond his limit by that point. it's too much weight on a single man's shoulders. but all might is amazing - and his VA is amazing too. i'm just said by anticipation because of what will become of him from now on. let him be the eternal symbol of peace. |
  |
| Holy shit this fucking episode. Mouth open speechless with tears running down my face. |
