| Ok episode, not as good as the previous one but better than most of the ones before it at least. I got spoiled on the multi-quirk already so I'm not surprised (fuck you manga readers), but I didn't expect it to come during the middle of this match. I have mixed feelings about this twist, but I heard the developments for it down the road are great so I'll just hold back from saying anything negative about it for now. Hopefully next episode is the last one for this arc, I'm looking forward to seeing the villain arc so many readers have been talking about. |
  "As promised, all that you seek, all that we desire, is prepared up there. On top of the Tower." |
| so midoriya is basically the avatar? able to master multiple quirks? lol. |
George_boi said: I don't know why people always have to hate on mha but this episode was fire. I like the flash backs because it gives us character development. It helps to understand characters motives and why being a hero is so important. Of course Uraraka's motive isn't only money and knowing what it truly made me like her character more. I thought the whole episode was intense and I enjoyed it. One decent episode doesn't determine the overall quality of a show. |
 -[ ~♫~ ll Credit ]- |
| The episode was good despite the flashback. The moment with Uraraka made it so much better tbh, cant wait for more character development. |
| I kinda knew this new quirk thing since I got myself spoiled months ago because of my unstoppable curiosity but it was really nice to see, it feels like there is going to be a new era for Deku. He still didn't reached the %100 of the one for all and he got lots of new quirks to work on. Damn Deku, gotta work harder than anybody. While people trying to improve one my boy Deku going to study all 6 of them :D If you think about it he is kinda turning into AFO but since just OFA was enough to go toe to toe with AFO , with this new powers if he can master all of them and OFA he will probably be the best hero of all time. Deku always said "This is the story of how I become the number one hero." so he is going to master all of them and whatever power comes next as we can predict. |
 |
| Finally, some progression. It was nice finally seeing one of Midoriya’s new quirks and learning some more about one of the previous One For All users. This battle seems kinda underwhelming so far, but hopefully Midoriya and Shinsou can make up for it. |
| A genuinely enjoyable episode. Now this exercise can finally end next week. |
 |
| Dam I liked this episode. Im gonna read the rest of the match in the manga |
| The 'time has come' and OFA is awakening with the predecessors now able to fully manifest and communicate with Deku. The big question is: Why's it awakening? Something has been in motion for a very long time, something that not even the previous users of OFA were aware of and now Deku is right at the center of it. |
 |
| Someone already mentioned it but I remember the fandom making a big ass deal about this development when it first happened in the manga, but it seems like it isn't as controversial now based off what I'm seeing in this thread. Either way, it's nice to finally see Blackwhip make its anime debut as we get the first glimpse of Deku using one of the previous users' Quirks. Now we can get on to the actual match and finish up this arc next episode. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. Take me back to the days before MAL became infested with Twitter's favorite buzzwords. |
| And now we finally get to the part where I fell off of the manga. Now I get a nice, clean, untainted experience of MHA's Shonen Downward Spiral. |
| So One For All not only transfer physical strength, but also the quirk of the previous users which also get enhanced along with the physical strength. Totally not overpowered /s If the previous matches were as short as the Bakugou one and this was ep3 or 4, I think the reception for this season would be much more positive. |
 |
| So deku has multiple quirks now? I'm not sure how to feel about this but it's understandable ig. That black whip looks super strong and hopefully the match will conclude next episode |
 ManWild |
| It begins, this is where things get a lot more interesting in MHA |
| Six more quirks to boot? Damn. And to think Deku started this whole journey being a quirk-less wimp. Quite interesting episode. Deku lost control of OFA but fortunately, the interventions of both Shinsou and Uraraka managed to make him go back to his senses. In this regard, I particularly liked how nicely Deku's confusion and desperation were portrayed. The Deku x Uraraka bits were also pretty sweet. |
| Already saw this coming since I spoiled myself a while ago but overall it was a good episode. The animation is doing a lot better too. |

| great episode i really enjoyed the focus on Shinso and Monoma. But plot wise this is when mha starts derailing even further. When izuku is no longer an underdog but rather is miles ahead of everyone else with 6 more quirks under his belt... the story is no longer interesting with him as the protagonist. |
| today we were all finally eating , the struggle of this season is nearly over |
 |
| Damm this was a good ep. It’s been a while since I enjoyed a Mha ep this much. I hope it continues to be as good as this episode but I think that’s not really possible |
| If there's a hole there's a goal-Master Oogway |
| So, at last, after a slow, flat and mediocre first season half this surprising development made things super interesting again. So Deku has potential access to no less than seven quirks (apart from the power of One for All itself) which are going to manifest one by one. Seven supercharged from One for All quirks (one of which appears to be fire based, like Endeavor's) that, if he can master, he can way surpass All Might and all the previous One for All hosts. He will be a jack of all trades and master of all trades. But if he cannot master them they could destroy him and the people around him (that's not going to happen, of course; since Kouhei Horikoshi made the unfortunate decision from the very start to have Izuku Midoriya double as the narrator of the story from a future when he is already the No1 Hero we know that he is "forever safe and successful" no matter what happens..). It is interesting that even All Might -who was also quirkless and thus has no quirk to bequeath- has no clue about what happened, which is natural since during his active period of hosting One for All no extra quirk manifested. Deku has both the honor and the responsibility to greatly expand the potential of One for All, both for himself and his successors. For the first time in quite a long time with this show I am super eager to watch the next episode to see what happens. It appears that Deku, after some hesitance, will try to use that whip-like quirk! Will he able to control it? |
 |
| Ok, so... Deku, the hero of the story, who had no quirk, got a quirk so he could go on to become a Hero. And now, even though he's still training and learning how to use that one quirk - he's basically getting more quirks, which isn't even a thing iirc, apart from - the actual villain of the story, All For One? If that isn't the most banal predictable plot twist of all plot twists, idk what else could be. Anyone genuinely surprised by this must be brand new to the genre. Oh, and with shoehorned shipping, because why not, of course. Sigh. |
| Pretty nice episode, the only thing that saddens me is that we have to wait another week for this fight to end. So basically Midoriya will get ridiculously OP, we saw what one of the powers could do, oh boy! |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| probably the best episode so far. I didn't understand why uraraka had a flashback though lol. |
| Not gonna lie, haven't really been feeling this whole A Class vs B Class arc, but this episode was pretty good. Love learning more about the vestiges and One for All. I wonder what other quirks Deku is going to get. Gonna make him crazy powerful once he can use them all. |
