Hyped for next episode. I hope theres a hidden thing where a person on a team can split their points. Super happy that those guys decided to join Izuku.

This episode was great, I am really glad that Tokoyami got time in the spotlight, and my gal, Hatsume, got some more screentime. I liked the team combinations and interactions, some of the quirk uses were interesting and creative. I don't read manga, but I've been really tempted to read Boku No Hero's manga- I've had to restrain myself- at least until this arc ends, so that I don't get spoiled- so I can't wait until the next episode to see how the fight goes. The only thing that was missing is All Might being a supportive father figure to Izuku, seriously- I can't get enough of seeing him cheer for his child, (also I like seeing Toshinori happy). Side note: I've been watching the series in dub, because I'm busy working and doing art projects while watching, so I don't have time to read subtitles (I actually find the dub enjoyable, Izuku sounds adorable, and in all, the voices are pretty solid so far), did I miss any notably good dialogue?, thanks.

I'm glad Tokoyami gets a spotlight, a lot of the minor characters still need some time to be showcased and I think we're going to get a lot of that in the coming episodes of this arc. I like Bakugo more and more as the series goes on, there's just something about his character that I really love

nope the dub is perfect watched both and only the smallest line change per episode and both dub and sub have great VAs IMO.

Deku ended up getting a good team, they are being really hard to get.
Some scenes in this episode were very good as Bakugo's punch.
And it seems that the fire guy is Todoroki's father.

Deku did nothing other than press a few buttons this episode - Tokoyami is the mvp.

Pacing was bland as per usual; they could easily fit 1.5 to 2 episodes into one - literally 10% is recap and the rest is waffling.

What a great episode, loved how Tokoyami is given some more screen-time, always thought that along with Todoroki and Bakugo he was one of the strongest characters in the show.

Mineta remains funny but also proves why he's in Class A, Bakugo stays true to himself and gets salty, and Todoroki man. He's just amazing.

Absolutely loving it so far, can't wait for each episode.

I like the pacing. I think its just right. They spent their time with creating the teams and introducing the b class, it gives us more insight of the characters.

Good episode, this season has been better than the first so far. A better school action anime than Boruto in every way. Dad Todoroki looks badass, hope we get to see him in action sometime.

Totally Pump out .. for the next episode...

You know what's more even good HMMHM (The Invisible girl who goes on incognito in the cavalry battle and Hatsume... Rawr.. from what I heard she had that kind of you know... what i mean xD)

Probably Recapping this again.. after it already released.. to make even more..complete

Cavalry Tank... Mineta.. sure... make a barrier for their team..

Oh Look another showoff blonde guy.. you just despised just appears

And sure we can't forget how.. Bakugou tries to blow him in a tiny bits..

Nice team up with Deku. Tokoyami's ability is both offensive and defensive.

For some reason, Todoroki doesn't like using his fire ability, and the fire guy on the audience seats is somewhat related to him, maybe his father or grandfather.

Mineta such a creep xD

I'm really happy about the team-ups for the cavalry battle, they're not what I expected for the most part and they highlight some cool side-characters. Well Uraraka wasn't unexpected but how could you say no to the best girl? Didn't give Tokoyami much thought before but his power is pretty damn versatile and just awesome in general.

Wasn't sure I liked Mei's personality last ep but she's grown on me. I love that there's a class focused on engineering tools and other inventions to bolster heroes, her gadgets (er, babies) were friggin great. Overall a very enjoyable ep.

Another great episode! I like how Deku picked his team based on their quirks and is using his smarts to stay one step ahead of everyone else. I had a feeling class-B was up to something and class-A now has to stay on their toes if they don't want to fail. They left the episode at the perfect cliff hanger for a showdown between Todoroki and Deku's teams.

BTW Todoroki's dad looks like a bad-a$$

I agree, I really like that they're giving a lot of the smaller characters a chance.

Tokoyami's power looks awesome though, looks like it can almost work like Gara's sand, just not quite as strong.

Solid set up episode. Deku has a crow and nerd on his team. He is doing good. I wonder how this will end. I wonder if they pull a Hunter x Hunter. There was something like this in Hunter x Hunter's exam arc.

Fun episode. TBH The blonde dude from Class B stealing headbands outta nowhere felt a bit random because he wasn't introduced earlier pre competition, unlike the purple spiky haired dude with the eye shades who we still don't know the deal with.

Are they going to explain how that guy in Class B is stealing the bandanas? He spent all his time talking about how they threw the preliminary, but no one cares about that.

Deku and Mineta's teams have best compositions.

WHAT?? Midoriya got the bird guy for his team oO Damn. Never expected he'd be available. Looked like he either had some guys to team up with in mind already or would have been one of the more contested picks. I'm actually glad we see him in the team. From the beginning he looked more interesting than a lot of the other characters.

His team doesn't look so bad. I'm really curious how well they'll hold up though.

For now they did really well :D The real challenge will be next week I guess when he is facing Todoroki as his opponent. I hope they are at least able to keep second place although I have no idea how they'd do that if Midoriya loses his headband close to the end of the game.

The reveal if the plan of that B class guy was kinda interesting. They definitely set themselves up to have a good chance in the second game. With low points they won't be the main focus (like Midoriya was) and they were able to preserve their stamina in the first game. It is interesting that the insulted Bakugo so much though. Looked counter productive as Bakugo will follow them until the end of the round or until he got all headbands off them. Kinda expected him to lose his though. Not in that manner but he gets rather unlucky in competitions it seems. Maybe it's just his arrogance but he didn't truly win any of the "competitions" they had so far.

So. FMA:B is under 100 episodes so it's not that long or a long runner.

Plus hero aca is technically a long runner then because it ran from last spring to now spring 2017 and will continue to summer 2017.

2. Hatsume Mei 10pts

Invisible girl 25pts

Aoyama 5pts!???

How in the world does the invisible girl who has no other abilities get more points than mei, who has flying machine boosters, and aoyama, who has naval laser!??? And how in the world did aoyama get only FIVE points!??? HOW???

Long running usually means 5 cours or Loner WITHOUT breaks(and Boku no Hero had breaks, and FMAB was 5 cours long it ran for 1 year and 3 months straight with NO breaks)

Since some people seem to have already forgotten, it was stated two episodes ago that Todoroki was the son of the Flame Hero, who is second only to All Might.

Todoroki seems to hate his dad, but it's worth keeping in mind that with All Might half-retired his dad is practically speaking the current top hero.

Deku can't win, can he?
First he was alienated because he didn't have a quirk and now he's being alienated for placing first lol

Wow, didn't expect Iida to refuse Midoriya- glad he did though...sure they're friends, but he has goals of his own too. I love love love Hatsume and hope she gets more spotlight this season- her Seiyuu does an amazing job as well!!

So class B are finally crawling out of the woodwork and that shady blonde dude whose name escapes me said what I was thinking all along- there ain't no point in placing super high in the prelims. It's common sense to be a dark horse and stick about placing in the mid-area until near the latter stages of the competition.
It's much easier to slink about and steal headbands when your peers don't see you as a threat.

The top 3 (Deku, Bakugo and Todoroki) are definitely gonna feel that pressure now, I guess.

Bakugo's anger issues just give me so much entertainment lmao he was so pissed at blondie at the end there. Also love his blossoming bromance with Kirishima.

This just keeps getting better and better! Wonder who's gonna win the cavalry now bc I doubt it's gonna be Deku's team. I wouldn't be surprised if Todoroki nabs his points with a relative amount of ease, especially with his dad watching and literally flaming in the audience even his moustache is made of fire

A little slow to start, but fairly good episode. It's just the feeling of chaos during the Cavalry game wasn't properly portrayed, even in the manga. The number of interactions were too few and the time between them were too long. Not chaotic or action-y enough.

The HYPE is still on high standards...
I expected that Ochako would team-up with Deku but, I didn't expect the support girl and especially I didn't expect that Tokoyami would be in Deku's team.
LOL at the heart-squeeze ugly face of Deku!
Iida-kun declined at Deku's recruitment!
LOL at whoever on class B made Bakugo get super pissed-off!
OST is still epic spectacular as ever!
It'd Todoroki's time to engage!
5/5.
