Damn!! I feel bad for Bakugou there :/
He didn't get the fight he wanted.......and we didn't get the fight we wanted either OTL

The parts where Todoroki did resist were epic!! How he used the ice to block himself from getting sent flying then sliding back all the way to Bakugou was cool.

But I guess he still isn't over the thing with Endy yet huh? Poor Deku, sacrificing his bones to straighten Todoroki up for nothing.

It does make some sense though. It's not that easy to change someones whole ideals and the decisions they've made for themselves. He didn't know what to fight for anymore since he his goal was to prove he was #1 without his dad's fire. But now that he used it he can't find any motivation I guess.

More character development is needed :3 And for Bakugou too.

Well, now the Tourney is over. IT DIDN'T GET INTERRUPTED!!! :D
I wonder where this will go next? Stain right away? Or will there be other stuff first?

Anyway, that was definitely not what we expected. From what I saw last weeks. Everyone was "Todoroki's gonna win this easily" ^^;

OBLIGATORY DAT ART *A*

Now this was a surprise. It ended up being the least likeliest outcome.

NO FUCKING WAY

Guess that was the best thing to do... I kinda called it, ice ain't nothing for Bakugou, but I really thought Todoroki would be able to put his father aside. That was a damn sad chapter...

Sad for Deku, sad for Todoroki, and even sad for Bakugou...

Wow the author didn't go for the obvious which to be honest is quite surprising.

Yep, the fight was pretty disapointing for us o read, but if you think about it, the author(once again) made the right decision. I too thought Todoroki would lose but I always thought he would just willingly leave the arena becasue his objective of winning without the fire could no longer be acomplished.

The enjoyment we would get from this fight, had both of them gone all out on each other, would be small compared to the one we will get from reading about Todoroki's internal conflict about his powers, and the development of his relationship with Bakugou, Deku and his father. My guess is that the first think he will do now (after a little fight with his father) is visit his mother wherever she is. Also Bakugou's further development kicks in from here on too. His frustation of being a somewhat false number one will be a great thing for his character.

If the author manages to handle those situations and characters right I guess the series will only improve from here on.

Actually the host lady pulled him out of there before he was hit - that was what the cuff on his wrist meant. Guess that means that Bakugou could have killed him if the attack hit, which isn't surprising.

Really great chapter, awesome fighting and art, and a bittersweet win for Bakugou!

Wow, I was expecting Kacchan to lose and learn a lesson from his mistakes, the cliche way. What I got was something unexpected. I'm surprised and happy!

No interest in the fight after so many duels in a row. But the greatness of this chapter was that it was the last one about that! The tournament is OVER!
I must admit that it might have been even worse with no focus on the characters.

I was also surprised to see the whole fight without any incident: after the few bits about villains, I was expecting some surprise murder (of a participant or professor


2.5-/5 And I still love the 21st Tenkaichi Budokai.
