| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Very intense episode, especially the parts with Dark Shadow :o However, I'm glad they're able to restore him back to normal. Himiko also got more screen time! She attacks Uraraka and Tsuyu in a 2 on 1 fight and that got pretty intense. Even when outnumbered, she seems to enjoy taking them both on. It also doesn't surprise me that she has such a deadly ability that she uses alongside with her weapons. Kinda nice to see Mr. Compress this episode too. These villains really got more creative this season. |

We've got "Roaring Upheaval" this week, the 44th episode overall covering the rest of Chapter 79 through 80 to finish off Volume 9 of the original source manga, as well as 81 from Volume 10. Dark Shadow is on the rampage! But that's alright, cause I love the way Deku thinks when asked to choose between helping Tokoyami or Bakugo: do both! It Is the true hero's response after all. XD And it's pretty convenient in some respects, such as Dark Shadow taking care of that freak Moonfish. And Bakugo and Todoroki are probably the best two candidates to help a rampaging shadow quirk what with their own rather flashy ones to counter it. Also nice to see Uraraka showing off some moves she learned during her internship against Toga. She didn't get away unscathed though, and Toga certainly left a...disturbing impression. But when things seem to be going so well Bakugo's fate becomes even more endangered. Save him Midoriya! Well I guess I should say everyone because it really has been a team effort so far. Shoji, Todoroki, Uraraka, Momo, etc..., but now that everyone is gathering together we're no doubt in for one crazy scramble! XD  |

| Deku is always the mvp. Never leave anyone behind. Plus Uraraka slammed that blood freak to the ground. Too bad she got away. |
| I'm so glad they managed to recreate the intensity of the manga, I wasn't expecting the episode to adapt this much so I was pleasantly surprised. And three best girls were harmed during this episode, the pain is real ;_; |
| This is why Tokoyami's quirk is one my favorites damn Let's all give Shoji and Tokoyami some well-deserved love! <3 I dont like where this episode ended it feels like it got cut or something (or maybe thats just me) |
| Dark Shadow while being on a rampage brought down Moonfish easily while both Shoto and Bakugo had a hard time to fight him due to the forest. After that it was subdued by the light. Toga fought against Tsuyu and Ochako till the rest of the gang joined and then retreated. Mr. Compress though managed to abduct both Tokoyami and Bakugo without them noticing. Next week is going to be even more intense. |
 |
| Damn, Dark Shadow is a strong and scary quirk. Nice intense moment there. Deku with his good plan, attracting Shadow to the enemy. Im satisfied with the action delivered. Toga is a psychopath, a true yandere. The mind games played in the scene was good, damn. She fell in love with Deku, LOL. Compress have a handy quirk, he was very sneaky. I like the personality of the villains so far. Toga and Deadpool Twice interactions gave me giggles. Good plan of Deku's, he is really smart in battle. |
 |
| Great episode as always. That was some real Revelry in the Dark for Dark Shadow and Tokoyami. Love how Deku and Shoji baited the berserk Dark Shadow into taking out Moonfish for them. Good thing Bakugou and Todoroki were there to help Dark Shadow calm down. Love the part where Deku says that he wants to save both Bakugou and Tokoyami. Bakugou sure doesn't like the idea of being protected. It's always hilarious when he lashes out like that. xD Ah, Himiko, as crazy as ever. XD The way she was trying to get into Ochako's head when the latter had her pinned was actually pretty smart, Himiko x Deku, love at first sight. xDD Compress pulled a fast one on our young heroes by capturing Bakugou. :( Momo got hurt by the advanced Nomu. :( I love it when she has her hair down though, nice move on her part by attaching that tracking device to the Nomu. That moment when Deku says he doesn't feel any pain and that he can move, so much conviction from a young kid. You can't help but root for him in these situations. xD That final slam on Compress was epic as hell. Can't wait for next week. Plus Ultra! |
 |
| Ah, Toga finally made her appearance. I haven't really had the chance to hear her speak enough, but I think I'm liking her VA. Twice is pretty funny btw. Very much looking forward to the next episode!! |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| Wasn't as great and intense as the last 2 episodes but still, a good episode nonetheless. |
| The flashback of Occhaco fighting gun head was from the filler episode of season 2 . Looks like it's relevant now. MonkeyDJasper said: The animation wasn’t really good this episode considering how much chino reviews was hyping it up . Still an enjoyable episode . That's because Chibi reviews dose'nt know shit about animation or the industry it self. I don't know why he even makes videos on every little thing he re tweets on Twitter. He probably thought every single animator who worked on episode 10 season 2 would return for this. |
| HACKs! 🤢🤮 |
| I can't get enough of Toga, she is perfect! Bakugou and Tokoyami were kidnapped! |

Xion69 said: This Anime Needs a Deadpool like character to spice it up. Its boring & same old garbage / power of friendship etc. Japanese anime follow same safe formula for certain fan-base. Studios don't take risk like western studios. That is why mainstream audience don't care. I wish something like marvel level comes from japan. Something that mainstream audience can enjoy globally. 1- Fairy Tail is power of friendship bullshit. In my hero you can see that there is actual planning from the villains and heroes going into the fights. 2- If anything, most Marvel movies follow a structure that's just as predictable as most shonen. 3- The Deadpool movie we all enjoyed so much wouldn't be a thing if it wasn't for the fans clamoring for it and Ryan Reynolds convincing the studio. Hollywood takes even lesk risks when making movies than the anime industry. 4- My Hero Academia is the biggest anime mainstream success since Attack on titan. I can't tell if you are a troll or just very badly informed, but you've managed to be wrong on every single statement you've made, except maybe the Deadpool character thing, and we already have Twice with the villains. |

| Man I still love how Muscular is the husbando version of Bakugo I wished him to be. He's so HAWT even when on the floor xD (Doujins when?) Episode was over 9000, loved the intensity and the OST was godlike |
 |
| I always knew Tokoyami was OP, exactly why he's my fav character. |
 |
I don't know why , but i kind of like her  |
| Confused Bakugou is the best thing ever |
| The direction was great, but the animation was only decent and the drawings were really wonky. Makes me think this episode was rushed. Not all episodes will have 10/10 animation so I'm not too bothered. Plus it looks to be better next week. I was hoping they'd do Tokoyami a bit more justice though. The devastation of Dark Shadow can only be scene from a bird's eye view.  Good episode nonetheless. |
 |
| Dark shadows weakness seems a bit to extrem for me. back in s 2 it looked like dark shadow in his small daylight Form was just reluctant to attack backlog because of the explosions but now dark shadow in its crazy big form can be surpressed by Todoroki and Bakugo using small flames like that ?? If that's the case anyone with a Torch can beat Tokoyami xd. |
SergioAlias said: Yep, but it could be better. Anyway I liked it. The long teeth dude for example has a bad animation and design compared to manga (manga provided him more details in the mouth for example) I have to agree on this one, the manga has an exceptionnal art and the anime didn''t really do it justice in this episode. Apart from the Deku vs Muscular fight, the manga was better on almost every scenes in this season. BUT for those who discover the story with the anime I'm sure they're greatly enjoying it. |
| Also Deku says that with that group they might be able to go up against All might I doubt that's true. I mean Their quirks are all very powerful and dark shadow is fckn op in that situation but they are all rather weak as individuals so all might can just take them all out one after the other and then handle Tokoyami in 1vs1 combat. |
| Great episode as always! Some parts actually gave me goosebumps. By the way, I see they mentioned Lida a couple of times during this episode and I had not realised until now that I can't remember seeing him for a couple of episodes now and I can't for the life of me remember where he went or if they even told us where he went. Does anyone remember? Or has he just mysteriously been absent from recent episodes? |
 |
| Daym. Art a bit off here and there and expected them to cover the next chapter as well, but overall a great episode. The only thing that really stood out was Dark Shadow which looked better in the manga imo |
| This episode was so exhilarating and god damn intense. I'm an anime-only but my favourite character has always been Tokoyami and hearing about his ability being much stronger in Season 2 really made curious to what it would be like if he was fighting during the night; that is exactly what this episode gave us. Of course Tokoyami lost control of Dark Shadow but holy shit was it OP as fuck. The part where Shoji asked Midoriya to choose to save Bakugou or Tokoyami, I just KNEW he would not choose one or the other, but both! That's just the way Midoriya is, a true hero that does not abandon his friends even when he's majorly injured himself. It was super cool to see Ochaco used her fighting techniques against Toga, which she learned from her internship. But man Toga is seriously one crazy BITCH, but at the same time I really like her cute design. I'm so conflicted... I was shocked to see Momo really injured but even she didn't want to give up and basically made a tracker and told Awase to use his weld ability to attach it into the villain. I just love how Momo is super smart with her quirk now. The last scene was so fucking awesome with the godly music. Midoriya's face when they landed, he looks so PISSED off. I'm READY! Also, Twice was hilarious af when he made the love heart. |

| Honestly, having Tokoyami take out that villain was probably the most competent shounen battle writing I've ever seen. Also I see Uraraka is getting some competition. She's gonna need to step up her game if she wants to defeat stalker girl. 5/5 would smash again. xShinigami3125 said: Also Deku says that with that group they might be able to go up against All might I doubt that's true.

I think they were talking defense wise. Obviously, they'd still be decimated by All Might if they were to fight him, but if they were to protect Bakugo against him they could probably stand a chance. |
| What an awesome adaptation so far. Togas craziness was a treat and I need more of that. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |

I still doubt that but yea that sounds a little more reasonable |
| I'm starting to understand the popularity behind Toga now. She might be a villain and needs to be defeated, but when she told Twice(Deadpool's long lost cousin in my eyes lol) about finding a boy she's interested in, she became irresistibly cute. =) Still, the fights are still pretty intense, from Tokoyami's shadow steamrolling Moonlight like he's a small twig, to Uraraka's impressive physical takedown of Toga. I won't deny that seeing her, Asui and Momo injured does make me feel sad, but they're doing their best to fight off villains of this strength. The art and animation is still good for this episode, but it has taken a noticeable drop in quality compared to the last two episodes, so I'm hoping that quality's consistency will be restored for next week. Plus Ultra! =3 |
| Midoriya, one more time, could do it!!! |

Apart from the Deku vs Muscular fight, the manga was better on almost every scenes in this season. BUT for those who discover the story with the anime I'm sure they're greatly enjoying it. It can be boiled down to Umakoshi not being there to correct important moments. They really lost a big chunk of what mages the high stake moments so magic to the movie. They're trying to replicate it with the two ADs in place of him but it does not hold up. |
| Midorya's injuries look so much more painful in anime, i guess it's the colouring that makes it stand out. The bloodsucking part, i didn't remember she had some kind of device that sucks blood like this, so they animated that very well too. Personally i liked this episode. This season is going to be epic, at least plot wise, maybe the animation is not always the perfect but we can't hope for perfection all the time. AHM said: TBH this gives me vibes from Naruto, when Sasuke got kidnapped by Orochimaru's group. I think that's what the author aimed for. :) because you will be surprised of the results |
 |
| Again what an awesome episode,bnh really is surprising me, in terms of jump franchises i can now say that it is top tier, not hunter x hunter level ,yet, and i think nothing ever wil bel, but its starting to shape up to be the next one piece i dare say. Can´t really think of a shounen nowadays with this level of writing unless we are talking about seinens, and this is only the beginnnig anime folks, the manga just keeps on improving and improving. Can´t wait for overhaul greatness!!! |
| This episode may have been not that intense like the last two, but it still had its intense moments! Deku's and Momo's quick judgements and Dark Shadow going on a rampage were epic! The animation didn't really bother me tho. Def a 5/5! |
 |
| Another great episode, and it was good to see some dark shadow. I think the episode ending off a little strangely but Midoriya landing looked sweet of course. |
Good good anime-only side meets with Toga aka best girl. I wonder if someone can guess her quirk correctly. |
| We need more Toga. like right now. |
| (✿◠‿◠) |
| Damn, another great episode. Never fails to deliver; I only watch the anime, but I gotta say that Toga is an interesting character -and judging by the comments, it's unanimous in this i.e. the statement. It was screamingly obvious where this was heading with tokoyami; I thought, whilst watching the previous episode that they'd lure tokoyami towards the enemy. I was right, that's what happened. |

| The scenes with Tokoyami weren't as intense as I remembered in the manga, but it was still a good episode nonetheless. |
