Aw hell, Knuckle got his daughter back but lost his wife....ugh.

Overall that was a nice wrap up, and I can't wait for season 2.

8/10

Final episode was alright. Felt more like a mishmash of multiple events that were left that they had to put somewhere instead of a full story in an episode. But the parts with Knuckleduster and his wife and daughter finally waking up were very satisfying. As an episode it's egh but as a finale it's even more egh.

Well, that's a wrap. So far I really like all the main characters, and I gotta say, Pop Step in particular really grew on me by the end of the first season. I'll definitely watch season 2 when it comes out.

Ending seemed abrupt. But overall this anime was a fun experience. The ground level view of the hero world was compelling to watch. Only problem was it shyed away from the initial dark anime about portraying the hidden reality of the world into a sort of slice of life by the end.

Knuckle man carried the entire series. It was a good watch. Seemed more interesting than many seasons of OG MHA

And with that, MHA Vigilantes season 1 is over.
I really liked the trio’s character development throughout the season. It was Knuckle’s journey just as much as much as it was Koichi’s.

But…why did Master have to leave them like that without a goodbye :(.
To suddenly show up and have such a big impact on Koichi and Pop like that, only to go and disappear. What did they mean to him? I guess him leaving behind the mask and knuckles means he left that world behind since he no longer has anything to fight for. Sad that his wife died but hopefully he can live a good life with his daughter.

What I like about this season is that it’s really like an alternate universe rather than a prequel. Knuckle and All Might are like night and day, with one being Batman and the other more like Superman. Koichi and Deku alike too. Only difference in the Master/Pupil relationship is that Knuckle leaves whereas All Might stays besides Deku.

P.S. Much respect for Spikey for looking after Knuckle’s daughter in the hospital after all the hell she caused him.

Seeing the bulletin board with all of their pictures almost made me tear up. All Koichi wanted was a sense of belonging and friends, and the memories he made as shown through the pictures at the end shows he now has that. His journey has just begun.

Looking forward to season 2.

This was a good watch. It wasn't anything too special. I am looking forward to seeing this spin-off grow. I will say that it does feel slow compared to what I am used to in the MHA universe. I think of the biggest highlights is Knuckleduster fighting in the last episode. I understand this finale was more of a wrap-up as opposed to something climatic. Overall, I think it's above average and it was a good season. 7/10

This episode is simple, and slightly uneventful, but it wraps up the season quite nicely. This episode is adorable and fun, but not necessarily a memorable one.

Was an alright spin-off, had some fun episodes here and there but overall uneventful.
The more interesting episodes were mostly the ones including Ingenium or the characters from the main series.

I guess if you're looking for a more chill side of super heroes not dealing with world-ending events this is the series for you.
I did like how they added more of a comic book style to it.

It looks like Knuckleduster has gone into retirement, at least for now. He saved his daughter's life, but lost his wife. At least he was able to tell her that their daughter was safe. That was definitely the closure she needed.

This was really good, almost as good as the main series. I'm looking forward to the second season when it comes out. :)

Though slightly anticlimactic for a season finale, it was still well executed. And I love how it was handled overall. From Animation to the VA work.

I didn't realize how central to the story and to my heart Knuckleduster was until he was gone...
