| Holy fuck, man... |
| I still don't understand how half the stadium didn't die from that last attack TBH. Do they have some kind of protection they didn't talk about (but they were frozen by todoroki ina previous match, so apparently they have none) ? Sapewloth said: AnimeJunky said: Ikr? Dude should be in fucking prison for child abuse.Also, Endeavor is a sorry piece of shit. How is he even able to be a hero after what he did to Todoroki and his mom!? Not only child abuse, apparently he was beating his wife regularly, reason for her to detest him so much and then start detesting the child who was looking more and more like him, from what I understood. Talk about a "hero". |
 |
| great episode. !!!!!!! |
| BOOOOOOIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!! Todoroki and Dekus fight was great Todoroki father needs to be put on trail for child abuse! |

| WOW Really that's all I can say. It's been a long time since a shounen fight makes me feel this way. Everything was top notch, I even forgot to eat my snacks. It was obvious Deku was not going to win halfway through considering he wouldn't be able fight in the next battle with his body wich is too bad but even so the tension kept adding up. Now, what's keeping the crowd to get hurt? That explosion was damn huge, there's no way it wouldn't affect anyone watching. |
| Baby, daijobanai... |
| OMFG! OMFG!!! OMFG!!!!!!!! THE FIGHT THE ART THE ANIMATION THEM DIALOGUES THAT BACKSTORY THEM RESOLVE THAT SAKUGA!! Oh did I mention the fight? THE EPIC AND OUTSTANDING FIGHTTTT!!!!!!!!!!! That. Was. Fabulous. Just one question. When Todoroki's mother was talking on phone, she mention "children" and we saw some kids playing in a scene, so is it safe to assume Todoroki have siblings? |
 |
that wont happen cuz he is a hero , which is the reason villains are so salty at the whole hero system if i were in hero academia universe and wanted to become a villain i would get my hero license first |
| This shit is epic and all but i really wish for some powerful villain with a solid backstory |
| Yutaka Nakamura coming clutch in June like he always does. The fight in the manga wasn't nearly as riveting as this. You say Run + Yutapon = miracles |
 |
| OMG i though my heart was about to broke at the las 5 minutes of the episode.... 10000000/10 |
| Holy CRAP one of my favorite episodes of all anime til now, that shit was lit. God tier animation (thank you Bones) and awesome character development for Todoroki and Midorya, everything was on point, loved it. 10/10. |
Izuku lost the battle, but won another friend.  Endeavor, shouting your son's name and...having an orgasm? |
| Fuck, that was so good. Even though I've read the manga that was so fucking good. The soundtrack during the middle part of the fight was very incredible, the final blow was animated so well, and the anime made Todoroki's mom's mental instability more impactful, I thought. Phenomenal adaptation, bravo Bones. Next episode things get a bit more serious, though, that'll be cool. |
| god damn that was sooo cooool. And very satisfying character development. |
| I wanted Midoriya to win :c |
 |
| So I just checked the manga chapter for this, in the official English release Deku says "I haven't even put a scratch on you!", but in the Crunchyroll translation it's "You haven't even put a scratch on me!" So which one is correct? |
TheEnhancedExe said: VolcanicHawk92 said: Easily Going to be the fight of the year unless Boku no Hero gives us an even better fight later into the season. 10/10 best episode all year long. Without spoiling you, there is an even better fight in the manga, but that won't happen until Season 3. That fight is twice as long and tops this one by a lot. I don't want to talk Deku vs Todoroki bad btw, Deku vs Todoroki is one of my favourite moments of the entire series. But the fight that will happen in S3 is just even better than that and the majority of the fanbase agrees to that. Deku vs Todoroki is still 10/10 and even better than it was in the manga^^ u mean the fight with "sensei"? |
Temujin26S said: Endevour put her in a mental hospital for anyone that got confused, no doubt his an asshole but try pretend to like his mother is innocent it's bullshit she scarred him psychically. Because her being a female it's okay for her to do that by people's logic, if the roles were revered people wouldn't have sympathy for the male but anyway I digress great episode. It has nothing to do with her being a female. But for God's sake, put some consideration into the situation. She was forced into a marriage by her parents to an abusive man, she was beaten in front of her children for years, and she became mentally and emotionally unstable because of it. The polite Japanese speech she uses to her own husband and the fact that she is terrified of her own children because they look like him show her situation clearly. She's was pretty much held hostage by a psychopath, beaten and raped to give him offsprings who he trained to be more like himself. He was a hero so police would be reluctant to get involved and her parents preserved outdated Japanese arranged marriages to successful spouses than her own well-being. She was alone and only had her children who day by day began to look more like her husband who she feared so much. She had a mental breakdown triggered by seeing Endeavor from Todoroki's left side as he peered into the room at her. Endeavor was 100% at fault for everything that happened. This has nothing to do with her being a woman and everything to do with her being driven to insanity with no help. |

| Great episode, we were all waiting for. But it's still ok if Midoriya lost, because Todoroki is on a different level. Remaining episodes of this season now aren't worth watching i guess, damn :( |
| Ohh, damn i rarely comment, but thisepisode was epic ...and the animation great :O Rodoraki is my fav character and done it great, lived it in the manga,loved the fight in the anime |
The spider is watching |
| BONES delivering BONERS yet again. Amazing episode. |
Atleastachirra said: I really think Midoriya should have won this match. It just so annoying to see him lose after how much effort he put into this match, while Todoroki just was lucky to be born with his abilities. Still the match hyped me so much, the backstory of Todoroki wasn't interesting to me at all :c deku losing is very reasonable and pretty expected. Shoto has been trained harshly by his strict asshole of a father since he was a kid, and he has years and years to get used to and enhance his quirk. But deku only has a few months since he first got OFA and is still not used to the power behind the quirk. If deku also has that many years of practice, he should be able to control OFA by now, but he didn't have that time. Therefore, since shouto has years more of practice, midoriya should not have won the fight. He may have put in a lot of effort into this fight, but the difference in the amount of practice they had offstage is just too great. By the way, you said todoroki is lucky to be born with his ability, but I'd say that Izuku is also lucky to get the number 1 hero All Might's ability, which can be way more powerful than todoroki's once Izuku has mastered it. |
| Great episode, but kinda shocked Midoriya actually lost the match. |
| Man fuck this whats the point of watching the rest of the tournament if the main character isn't in it. |
MadLane said: miskos3 said: I think the message of this fight, as well as Deku's intentions, completely flew over your head "message of this fight" in a fight the only message is how can i defeat and kill the enemy as fast as possible, not talking to him about feeling good with yourself, accepting your powers as your own etc.. i'm not a stupid child who wants the power of friendship and everyone to be nice, i want to see them fight and kill each other like a real fight is suppose to be, guess wrong anime for me then that may be the message in the other shounen battles you've seen, but keep in mind that this is a hero series you're watching. these kids want to become heroes who's priority is to save people. if they dive into a battle aiming to kill their opponent, the consequences would be severe. The aim of the sports festival is to advertise yourself and your quirk to the hero agencies, so they'll want you to work at their hero agency after you graduate. If all you show is your bloodlust and your desire to finish a fight as fast as possible by trying to kill your opponent, no hero agency would want you. Like shown in Mei vs Iida fight, Mei lost on purpose because her goal here is to advertise her gadgets, and when she reached her aim, she has no reason to stay in the fight no more. If you like the straight to killing type of battles, perhaps My Hero Academia isn't for you. They aren't training to become killing machines or villains, so the straight-to-killing, instead of trying-to-save type of battles aren't plenty in this series, except, obviously, when they are fighting the big boss like All For One, they have to go for the kill. But in this school sports festival, don't expect them to be bloodthirsty any time soon. A few episodes later, you'll see that even a villain understands that a hero's priority is to save, not to kill or anything else. |
| Good fight and todoroki backstory and moitvation by midoriya who edged him on. |
 |
| Beautiful fight. I already read a little bit of the manga so I knew what was gonna happen but they made this better than the manga, truly perfection. Anime of the season, hands down. |
| I've been waiting for this for so long and let me say that it didn't disappoint, it actually surpassed my expectations. I'm still shaking and excited after just finishing it because everything about that fight was just so damn amazing, best episode of Boku no Hero to date and probably one of the best Anime fights of all time, I thought it was even better than the All Might vs Noumu fight |

This has nothing to do with her being a woman and everything to do with her being driven to insanity with no help. It has everything to do with her being a female I've put everything into consideration and it mirrors real life to a degree, Endeavor we know is completely wrong but your not gonna sit here and try to justify to me the mother's actions. Throwing boiling hot water on her child and disowning and scarring him permanently is somehow right and absolves her from any responsibility. There was no indication they were becoming like Endeavor the other children lived normal lives as that quote didn't make any sense, even after his mother was put in mental hospital and Endeavor continued to raise Todoroki he turned out nothing like him. In fact I think Horikoshi makes wants to look at both sides of spectrum, he could easily wrote it to make Endevour throw the boiling water on Todoroki reinforce him being a bad father but he didn't, why because even if one party is to blame more than other that being Endeavor Todoroki has still suffered under both parents mentally and physically. Naturally people have inherent bias when females kill their children or abuse them people ask "why did she do it" like I said if the roles were reversed you wouldn't have much sympathy or even ponder that question. Nobody is justifying her actions. You don't justify the actions of a mentally damaged person who harms others, you rationalise it because you have enough of a competent mind to realise they're not in their right senses. She developed a disability after years of abuse. The other kids didn't turn out "fine", they were simply outside playing at the time while Todoroki got the full attention of Endeavor because he was his "masterpiece". Children will adopt even the smallest of habits from their parents and that's all it would take to trigger some kind of mental breakdown in her who fears him so much. Todoroki turned out nothing like his father BECAUSE his mother went to the hospital. He turned out the opposite of that BECAUSE his mother poured boiling water on him, and he in turn blamed his father. He didn't turn out "fine", the situation is what made him hate his father and strive to reject him. If that didn't happen he may have been a completely different person so don't act as though the children turned out fine even under his influence. Nobody is showing bias because she's a woman so stop acting like a damn meninist and use some judgement! She was put into a damn psychiatric hospital, she wasn't in her right mind! If the roles were reversed it would be the same outcome where she would be a complete bitch for mentally and physically abusing her husband and son. The only difference here is that Endeavor is a 6'5" mass of muscle beating his son and wife but that wouldn't change the fact that if she was the abuser she'd be the total scumbag and he'd be the one sympathised with! You're a complete dickhead if you're going to sit there and equate a mentally abused person snapping to a man well within his mind abusing his family. Rupdedudludu said: MoonStar9 said: She's a villain for being forced into an arranged marriage by her parents to a man she didn't love? For being forced to have his children? Bing physically abused by him for protecting her five-year-old son from being punched in the gut by a 6'5" giant? Like did you miss Endeavor hitting his wife in the episode? She grew emotionally and mentally unstable because of years of abuse! How is she the real villain you psychopath?! >Muh Husbando is a shitty ahole but i am unable to do anything about it thats why I just say that my son is at fault here so he can grow up with an inferiority complex Being abused dosen't justify her actions towards her son and instead of trying to do something to help her familly she just blames Shoto for all of it. You're right thats a Mother of the Year candidate right there. She didn't blame him and she tried to get help, she was on the phone with her parents! Her abuse was going on for years so you can't imagine that was the first time she did that. The episode showed it blatantly, she tried to protect her son from a grown mass of muscle punching him in the gut and was hit for it. And that wasn't the only time it happened. She had a mental breakdown after years of being physically and mentally abused! Her children started to look more and more like the monster who abused her and she snapped when she saw his left-side looking at her. She had a disability! What about that don't you understand? She isn't to blame because she wasn't of a sound mind so don't tell me bullshit about her being the true villain. Especially after seeing an episode where a grown man punched his five-year-old in the stomach and hitting his wife all for the sake of vicariously living through him surpassing All Might! She was a loving mother who protected her son from harm and supported him in becoming whoever he wanted to be until she became mentally unstable due to abuse! You're a damned idiot! |

| simply amazing this was beautifully made, so intense Midoriya did everything he could but also at the same time he was trying to help Todoroki break free but all in all amazing fight and looking forward to the next ep |
| "one step at a time" |
| AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH THAT WAS FREAKING FANTASTIC. This was so worth the wait, and we didn't have to wait till next week to see who won. Midoriya may have lost but he made this one of the best matches yet. Now Todoroki is advancing to the next round. I look forward to seeing the others finish up their next battles as well. Edit: Also what the heck is going on with this forum? The mom was very clearly not the problem with that family, it was Endeavor being an abusive jerk that was the problem. Who wouldn't be freaking terrified of some towering flaming violent dude who forced you into a relationship and attacks you whenever he feels like it? Believe it or not, but fear can actually really mess people up sometimes, makes them do things they wouldn't normally do. |

"like a real fight is suppose to be" your opinion means nothing here, it's plain wrong. |
| Holy fucking shit if this wasn't an amazing episode then I don't know what to else to say! |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| Forgot how great this fight was. But wow they made it even better. |
| THIS IS WHY I WATCH ANIME |

You're a complete dickhead if you're going to sit there and equate a mentally abused person snapping to a man well within his mind abusing his family. You were justifying and rationalise it by implying she was absolved from her actions because of Endevour. Todoroki often wondered why Endeavor was so hard on him when it came to training and clearly wanted more of a normal life like his siblings, there was no indication or example Todoroki was ever. It came down to the fact he started to resemble Endeavor and exhibited the same power as him too which his mother aimed the hot water at his fire side. You just proved my point Endeavor big somehow mean men can't be abused physically or mentally. My whole point was that if the roles were reversed there wouldn't any sympathy or her being a female would absolve her of responsibility because there must be a reason why she did it. She didn't blame him and she tried to get help, she was on the phone with her parents! Her abuse was going on for years so you can't imagine that was the first time she did that.

Especially after seeing an episode where a grown man punched his five-year-old in the stomach and beat his wife! She did blame him because of her hate for Endevour, just because he looked like Endevour and had had the fire power like him, that obviously meant it was Todoroki fault. She proceeded to scar him for life and abandon him. She didn't blame him, she snapped and she regretted it, as you will see in a few episodes. Do you not understand what mental disabilities are? Furthermore, she didn't abandon him she was placed in a mental hospital and out of custody. |
