This episode reached another level of madness thanks to AFO and Dabi. Oh yeah, Dabi...they didn't forget about him and his complicated relationship with Todoroki.

Speaking of Todoroki, it was very cool to see him fight the good fight and put everything on the line. Very emotional episode imo, especially from Todoroki's family side.

Nakamura was promised, and Nakamura we fucking got. My god did that Iida and Todoroki scene look magnificent. And it only got better after with THAT FUCKING ALL MIGHT 'I AM HERE' SCENE. Was really just the episode for both the old pro heroes tbh. Got some All Might hype with that scene, and then we got the whole thing with Dabi, YET again.

Though, this time around, it's the ENTIRE family against him lol. Which, yet again, animation snapped. bone brought the A team out for this episode, that's for sure. On a sidenote, can my boy Iida get the respect he deserves after this episode? Dude high key saved the entire Todoroki family by helping Todoroki himself get there quicker. VERY quicker mind you. All the shocked background character were looking like me lol. Didn't think Bones had it in them, yet here we are.

Easily the best episode of the season, dare I say one of the best in the show in general.

Yes, everyone is relevant, in their own way. Though there’s actually a problem if a relevant bunch, in the context of this series, seems to always end up being irrelevant, time after time after time, I mean anything around the Todoroki family just moves in a circle. Now they tell us Dabi was actually a walking nuke, so yeah, all those monologues and thoughts from Todoroki actually didn’t reach Dabi in the end. What can someone do, really? Endeavour was actually ready to go down with Dabi, which I think he has already done or thought to do so hundreds of times till this point.

They tried to make it as poetic as they could’ve, with the whole family coming in the end… uniting in the end to stop Dabi, but nah, something which just has been going around for so long just for the sake of it loses its meaning. Though that entire sequence was one of the best we’ve had this season. Just that and nothing else. Take me back to Iron Might!

What a Peak episode.

The conclusion to the Todoroki plot line. All Might's 'I'm Here' moment. Some more priceless Nakamura cuts. Some great OST choices to enhance the already peak MHA material. No notes.

I'm pretty sure this season will end on a relatively annoying cliffhanger, but concluding various character arcs near the end of the season will make the wait for a season 8 a lot less painful.

Here's hoping the next two episodes are of a similar quality animation and direction-wise. Although I wouldn't be suprised if we got the only Nakamura cut this season here, he probably picks one scene from the storyboards that looks fun to animate then vanishes till the next season and/or movie.

I kinda expect an All Might-centric episode considering this episode's title but the highlight is eventually about Todoroki family, but it's so well done that I absolutely have no complain at all, even if "We Are Here" would be a more appropriate title for this episode.

You can tell Dabi hatred was the only thing left that carried him on until now. Even near death he couldnt let go. The tenacity that this man has is insurmountable. May endeavor be forever scarred by this.

Goddamn what a beautiful episode.
This episode has to be one of the best of the entire series and theres not a single punch thrown really.
I was waiting for the lida/shoto teamup because it seemed hype from the opening and they definitely delivered.
Allmight facing Allforone, quirkless smiling and full of resolve, was epic. it seems he is planning to use his batmobil and gadgets to fight allforone now. im a little scared for him.
I was expecting a final Showdown between todorokis , but the emotional rollercoaster we got instead, was even better.
Endeavor deciding to burn with Toya, but getting saved by mama todoroki and even the siblings, was definitely not expected. Reis entrance after Endeavors dialogue was really heartwarming.
Top notch episode

Dabi-kun: I hate you... Dad... The whole Family...
Endeavor-san: Yeah... Tell us... More...

I cried. ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ข๐Ÿฅบ

Also the sakuga scene of Iida-kun and Todoroki-kun was really cool. ๐Ÿ”ฅโ„๏ธ

I really can relate for Dabi-kun. Having a toxic dad. ๐Ÿ™‚
But I already forgiven my goat Endeavor-san because he is trying his best to atone for his mistakes.
I hope they can be a happy family together again.

I honestly thought that every one of them had vanished in that frozen explosion. But I like that everyone got out alive. I specially liked that mach-3 made-of-ice plane Todoroki and Iida made.
I wonder what All might is up to. Is true that All for one cant ignore him, but at that point, it is a suicidal mission (I'm with Tsukauchi kun in that one).

Feels like they milked the Todoroki arc a bit too much. Too many false ends, false ultimatums, false climaxes. When characters "go past their limits" out of courage, love or hatred dozens of times in the span of a few episodes, it starts to lose meaning. But then the same could be said of every arc in this series.

Still, very emotional and satisfying episode overall. Great animation. Looking forward to the next episode.

Wow man, wasn’t expecting a “heater” like this waking up this Saturday morning, see what I did there? Nah but this was awesome, such a good episode, finally concluding the Endeavor and Todoroki family stuff with Dabi, I’m ngl it felt like it concluded several times over the course of the show but this has to be it right? Whole family came together to stop Dabi, and it was animated beautifully, not to mention Iida and Todoroki’s jet scene which also looked sick, they knew which episode to deliver on. And I will say, not sure if I like Dabi surviving after all he’s done, really none of these League of Villains characters deserve to be saved imo, but I can’t lie that it is sweet af lol, the tears shed at the end of this episode really carries that home, like yeah I want to see these villains truly bight the dust but this is also nice.

And man that All Might scene too, dude came out of retirement just to take on his old nemesis again, that “I am here” couldn’t have been more well placed, I do wish we could have gotten a follow-up to whatever All Might is cooking there in this episode but I get that the Dabi stuff needed focus here. And wow the ED visuals changed some too, I was reading the thread as it played but noticed a few additions, very nice, that’s one of those rewards for never skipping that I love.

Todoroki's family struggles side story has been among the few things this series did right in a consistent enough matter. Not only were we given enough time to explore and every season we got to see how it evolved with a twist at the end that resulted in this clash, but one can feel for each of them. Remorse, sadness, regret, union, many of these values come to mind while going through what they've been through and if anyone argued that Shoto was a better fit for a main character than Deku I would agree 100%.

Now, will next week be finally the time for Toga and Ochaco's confrontation? They've been hyping it up way too much at this point.

This Ep is The Best EP So Far.

Its Just Like Season 1 When Daku save Ochako From Robot.
That Ep Buildup Was Crazy & When He Punch The Robot i Punched On a Wall.
Thats How Great That Ep Feels For Me.
There Was Great/Good Ep in S2-7 But Never Feel The Same.

THE S7 Ep19 i Feels The Same After So Long.
Previous Eps Buildup And Ep 19 Start With No Hope , Then Almight's Radio Came.
And Hype&Emotion Raising like Crazy ๐Ÿ“ˆ

Then Iida&Todoroki's Jet Mode Made My Adaline to the peak

But

Iida's:
"i can take you this far" to "Thanks to you, I'm becoming Who i wanted to be!"

Between This Scene i Swing My Arm like Crazy Did hurt Myself This Time.

Superb Solid Episode. Because i Feels Every Kinda Emotion in This Ep.

The todoroki storyline was always one the best if not the best storyline in the series, the long build up and character development after all these years to the climax was absolute pure cinema. I never thought id shed tears for this show anymore but was proven wrong. Definitely the best ep of the season and one of in the entire series.

Amazing episode! The Todoroki side plot is one of the best things to come out of MHA. Almost as if this is what he really wanted to write.

Not a big fan of superhero stuff but I really enjoyed what he did with the characters in this, I'm so excited for what he writes next.

For me dabi is the most annoying villain plot in this series, he is just a crybaby attention seeker to his father huek cuih๐Ÿคฎ.

But author make him buffed till the end fking 7th season shit and giving him an important villain role. Actually from that shigaraki villain group, i hate everyone except shigaraki.

It's just their reason to being a villain is cheap af. They're just half hearted evil and it's feel nothing in the end and not worth to be memorable.

Then this episode title is "i am here", i expected all might doing something, but this crybaby cringe kid just ruined everything.

I remember Horikoshi-san saying that the fight scenes weren't clearly depicted in the manga sometimes, and the anime fills in that gap. The previous few episodes are really the benchmark for that, switching the sites and battles as clear as the manga and upping the hype that I felt reading the manga ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ”ฅ

The Shiketsu High School heroes get going as well, as All For One gains control, and Dabi being JJK's Gojo Satoru to unleash his Domain Expansion of his stored high heat to explode and kill scores of people, the villains are winning every last bout of their fight. But it's the same rhetoric that heroes like Iida will not give up, not after what Todoroki have to fight through to get to his older, deranged brother. It's all for All Might, whom has his "I Am Here" moment to face All For One even when Quirkless, what memories.

Dabi already on the verge of explosion as he torments Endeavor while having part of his consciousness intact, the battle between older brother and father opens up once he figures out his wife Rei's Quirk within Toya, and embracing him to atone for his irresponsibilities. And the best part is that Endeavour's not alone, the entire Todoroki family is behind him, but this doesn't prove enough to stop his explosion, until the arrival of Iida and Shoto being just in time.

Shoto Todoroki's Uprising, along with the family in mourning over Toya's loss, what an episode.

Is this it then? Or is there gonna be yet another thing for the Todorokis? Sorry if I have my doubts, but like others also said, they've milked this a little too much with a little too many fake-outs, and yeah things do kinda lose their meaning when that happens. Like, I just... legit lol'd several times, because I can't take it seriously anymore. Only so many episodes of the Todoroki Family Drama I could watch, especially when I've never found Endeavour himself much of a likeable or even relatable character.

Also, the bait-and-switch? Gimme a break. Not a single person, after all these years/chapters, who doesn't associate I AM HERE with All Might, and he gets like... what, 3 minutes screentime if I'm generous? Yeah, there's a clear attempt to transfer the meaning of it, but the line itself is so iconic to one specific character (THE most iconic line in the series I'd say), that the whole thing ends up being forced/contrived. If not cheap. Especially with these proportions here.

Some great animation at least, and banger music as always, if one could keep watching.
