For those who thought this episode was pointless, well it kinda is... Like what class 1-A said in an earlier episode, this is a school after all, with normal things Slice Of Life stuff like this.

Some note-worthy points:
1) Iida really looks up to his brother, Ingenium (prob season 2 plot)
2) All Might is getting weaker
3) All Might used up his time limit, hence he's not participating in the rescue training.

Other minor facts:
* Iida was universally recognised by the class as President
* Bakugou is the only person who Midoriya told about One For All
* The media are really really annoying. PR concerns are a part of real life after all

Hoping the episodes after this are all action-packed. If this season doesn't end with a bang, it'll be hard to justify the hype to anime-only viewers...

So this was basically a gap episode, building up to the next one. Due to the nature of it, it was weaker than most previous episodes. But the pacing was good and I'm looking forward to the next one.

----------------------------------------
Well that was quite something, a bit slow on the action but the way class works in their academy made the episode fun. Yeah, I think even the media is interested in the students more than expected

Deku also gets a bit modified of his hero outfit.
All Might still awesome as ever. Nice to see more of the staff members and setting of the school :D


I love how you're able to post these awful descriptions of episodes because you don't understand raw but you delete people who post discussions who actually understand what they're watching. Then you go on and post your discussion 5 minutes later simply because you want to be the first to post. You're kinda sad tbh dude.

edit: Here are the things you didn't understand because you simply want to have this ego.

First off, it is not Deku's modified costume, it is his P.E costume that he has to wear till they fix his old one.

The media is not interested in the students, they are interested in All Might.

But hey at least you got to create the discussion right?

Another slow, boring episode of a slow, boring show.

Deku continues to be one of the most unlikable shonen protagonists I've come across.

"Don't worry guys next week he's gonna man up! I swear he won't be a shaky crybaby much longer!" - manga readers, every week.

9 episodes in and the kid still turns into a stuttering shaky mess every time someone looks at him.

It's like if the MC of Watamote became a shonen protagonist. Except in her case it's enjoyable to watch because her awkwardness is the whole point of the show and the comedy.

Lida sounds like "leader". Coincidence? I think not.
“Humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return. To obtain, something of equal value must be lost. That is alchemy's first law of Equivalent Exchange. In those days, we really believed that to be the world's one, and only, truth. But the world isn't perfect, and the law is incomplete..." -Alphonse Elric

"Then and now, what I protect has never changed!" -Sakata Gintoki

I'll take anything like The Pet Girl of Sakurasou. Anything as good as that.

The art looked worse than the others episodes. I guess they do that since that was a transition episode (except for the ending when the villains appears).

Aizawa and Iida are best boys so far. Want to see the villains in action the next week.

Boku no Hero Ep. 9 was nice! I like how the classmates get to know each other better! Tsu-chan is amazing tbh! Poor Kacchan but I think it’s the best for him to learn that he isn’t the best and coolest Hero on Earth yet. Iida was cool and I like fangirling/fanboying Deku and Uraraka (Doesn’t she have a shorter nickname because I always forget her name!) Cliffhanger made me excited for next week!

yeah....i agree. class representative should be iida xD fits more than midoriya imo.
overall, it was a very good episode imo. first half was okay, the second half, things was getting more serious and somehow, the second half reminds me of X-men especially X-men apocalypse. and as always, they always made a cliffhanger which always killing me. can't wait for the next episode! XD

Aoi Yuki should just stick to tsundere characters, because she cant pull it off as other type of characters.

The Tsuyu scenes were far better in the manga.

Iida was the star of this episode.





I had no idea they had Dragon Ball Super animators working in BNHA, or Shigaraki recruiting Slender Man.

Finally getting to the good stuff, sad that we'll have to wait for (hopefully) season 2 for my favourite arc though. MORE TODOROKI AND TSUYU TO COME I AM SO EXCITED.

Art was a bit dodgy this episode, hopefully its so they can put a lot more budget into the ending episodes.

finally, an episode that wasn't bogged down by the slow pacing. this episode was far from filler or gap. it didn't have action (so what?) but it expanded on the themes of this series, and did very good characterization with bakugou (at last).

I wish the art was better. I don't like most shot compositions which is a big con.

So... How does that guy eat? He's obviously covering his own nose, so nasogastric intubation is a no-go.

Actually, how does he BREATHE?!

The hands aren't a part of his body. They're completely removable. In fact, as far as I can tell they aren't even a part of his quirk. He just has them there because... we don't actually know why. Possibly because he's just a total freaking psychotic lunatic.

This episode was great. Not any action this time, but all the characters in this show are just so likeable that episodes like this are a welcome addition when we get to see more of them in their daily UA lives. Tsuyu finally getting some solid dialogue was extremely nice. She's cute in the weirdest way.

Lol at Bakugo being teased and Deku's disbelief. Also surprised Iida didn't get any initial votes for class rep but the got his deserved spot in the end. Momo is probably the best true leader of the class but Iida just has that personality about him.

Also, this was definitely my favorite part of the episode.
I love when subtle little events happen in the background that aren't referenced. It makes it that much funnier when the viewer notices it.

Are you kidding? Aoi Yuuki is one of the best young VAs there is right now. She has one of the largest ranges of character types that she's voiced despite having a short career. You can say you don't like her voice, but that's nobody's fault but yours. She's absolutely killing it as Tsuyu. She's basically half-human and half-frog after all, and her voice nails that fusion perfectly.

guys don't feed the trolls. believe in mha. i know for a fact that great series will shine anywhere. mha may seem "generic and cliche" like some may say, but just have patience and wait until 2nd season when the tournament arc rolls in, where the characterization was shown full-blown, then mha will truly shine.

i mean look at erased. when it's a manga, no one cares. but when the anime came out, it became super popular and rose to rank 20 in a few weeks. good series will get their time to shine. you just gotta wait patiently.

It was better than the previous episode.
Iida being the class leader was really the best choice!

That ending! Damn can't wait to see how are they going to defeat them, and how will they use their abilities against a team of villains.

They ask him about All Might and he says he isn't here today. Aizawa Sensei trolling.
They gonna decide on a class representative, I think the big oppai nice bawdy girl who got in by recommendation will be the one.
Oh ok mah man Midoriya is the one! and that big oppai nice bawdy girl who got in by recommendation is the deputy class rep.
YES the villains are moving now, I've been waiting to see them do shit.
It was the media. ;_;
Yeah Iida is best best fit for the position or that big oppai nice bawdy girl who got in by recommendation. These 2 best for class rep.
Slow paced episode, it feels a bit long.
Look at Uraraka nodding her head aggressively at Garbageman Thirteen.
YESSSS THE VILLAINS ARE HERE FINALLY!!!!!

I have to agree with CC9ers. I admit i'm biased towards her (she's so goooood). But in fact, until I read your comment I didn't realize Tsuyu was voiced by Yuuki (and I listen to her a LOT). This just proves she's even more talented and has a much bigger range than I previously thought


Same here. I didn't know Tsuyu as Aoi Yuuki until LordPerucho mentioned it and then I looked it up to double check. The same thing happened to me when watching Overlord and I found out after the fact that she voiced Clementine. Really great range.

I loved all the character interactions in this episode. Iida is definitely a natural leader. And the whole class supported him being the class representative. Izuku wouldn't have been good at it at all. I'm really starting like Tsuyu. Her straightforward comments are great. She's also perceptive, and was able to see the similarities between Izuku and All Might's Quirks. I wonder if she'll ever confirm her suspicions? And the villains at the end was a nice cliffhanger. That hand guy just has too many hands.

I don't think it would've been that hard to do a close up and animate them walking outta of the darkness. Maybe they're saving budget. :/


Oh well, I lol'ed at Kacchan for getting teased. XD
