| It's sad to see a man's long-lasted ambition vanish from his grasp, Chisaki got a fate worse than death. Chisaki was the complete opposite of Shigaraki. Why can't Chisaki use his quirk, when he combined with the energy absorption guy he also got the quirk boosting drug, hence the titan transformation, so at that time he could use his quirk throughout his body(like the villain Kirishima fought when he first went Unbreakable. Before drug he only had blades coming out of his arms, after drug he had them coming from everywhere, even his eyes). Prior to getting the drug Chisaki never lost both arms, he lost two arms when in his Machamp form but fixed that with his other two, then he injured his arm after Deku blasted the whole underground and simply fixed that with his other arm. So, he never lost both arms prior to the boosting drug.[If someone still has a problem with this, I literally have nothing else to say, even I at the most will say it was a coincidence, but a, "Oh It makes sense" one, also the person wanting to control quirks having to loose his is poetic justice at it's finest so no way bad writing]. Eri is finally saved, and no she shouldn't use her quirk for anything ever, at the moment, she has gone through hell, it's a miracle she's still sane, she should never risk killing a human's life ever again. Yes, she shouldn't save Nighteye, no one would have let it, because they are all heroes, they wouldn't make a child who knows death her whole life have a chance of killing a person that tried to save her. If people can't understand this then they should stop watching MHA, because MHA is not about how cool superpowers are, it's about people and their hearts. Nighteye might be my favourite "I can see the future character" ever[please don't get offended by this, I simply haven't seen any other character of this trait that's better], a person like that can never be happy, hence his cravings for humour. Nighteye had to lift the weight of the whole world because he thought he was responsible for All Might, he tried to change that future by any good means necessary but couldn't, then he realizes that, no he has already made the future a bright place, he raised the hero Lemillion. Knowing that One for All is within someone without doubt, reconciling with his best friend and looking at his students who WILL make a brighter future he can rest in peace. He can die smiling. . . . I honestly don't know when I started crying. usually, I watch the episode two to three times to grasp every single detail, but I simply couldn't get myself to rewatch this episode, "Bright Future". |

| Overhaul turned into a nugget |
 |
| I liked this episode. The part with the League on the highway was awesome, and Shigaraki looks pretty badass with that long jacket. Then there's the emotional section with Nighteye. I don't know how to feel about his death though, since he was only around for such a short time. I guess his whole purpose was to make predictions for characters to fight against, and it's hard to care about characters who only exist to serve as a plot point. Which leads me to Mirio. I'm undecided on whether I hope he gets his quirk back or if it's gone for good. On the one hand, I've always liked how the series seemed to have high stakes with actual consequences for actions, and giving Mirio his quirk back would ruin that. On the other hand, taking away his quirk for good makes it seem like he was introduced just to serve a plot point in the battle against Overhaul. Nighteye's prediction makes me think he gets it back somehow, but maybe he just trains really hard to somehow become a hero without a quirk? As for why Eri didn't heal Nighteye...didn't they say she was sick from the fight? Maybe she couldn't activate it. And for why Overhaul didn't use his regeneration abilities on the highway...I've watched so much One Piece that I'm used to Marines using sea prism stone handcuffs to cancel out devil fruit abilities and I didn't even question why Overhaul didn't use his power. But anyways...Shigaraki clearly cut off his hands so he couldn't use his powers anymore, it's just a matter of why he didn't use his power to break the restraint device. I would say "maybe the restraint device cancels quirk powers" (they did manage to restrain All for One, after all) but having something like that would make Overhaul's bullets and Aizawa's ability less impactful. |

ItsBritneyBitch said: What this guy says is true.Nothing makes sense this arc.Can somebody explain me how Eri's quirk acts???She can rewind time and it made Deku use 100% of his power but how does the serum made from her deletes quirk.They explained how the deletion of quirk works but never mentioned how Eri's quirk does.Logic from this show is just completely gone, the magic has faded quite dramatically for this show. The single most DANGEROUS villain has an ambulance responsible for the DEADLY DRUG AND VILLAIN with ONE POLICE escort. Even after they announced 'THE LEAGUE OF VILLAINS ARE STILL AROUND BE CAREFUL'........ Then overhauls massive plot hole recovering his arms in Dekus fight but can't do it all of a sudden. Then the UNEXPLAINED BECAUSE OF BAD WRITING death of Nighteye when there was a resolve in everyone's logical mind as to why it shouldn't happen which a writer would be aware of, but failed to address. This leaves everyone plus fans trying to explain away in their heads to defend the indefensible. p.s. I'll watch it as I please before I get that illogical critique of 'if u dont like it don't watch it'. Sorry but your hero has flaws. Most of you watched GoT even when it went to shit but you all finished it, critiqued it and watched all the youtube vids about how devoid of logic it was, so. Nighteye's death wasn't emotional at all it was just forced.That guy may have got only 20 mins of screentime and all he does is exposition.And the cliche with Midoriya was ridiculous.I laughed mine ass off when he said Midoriya changed the future.I never felt any attachment with Nighteye and I would never will cause the show never cared about it.If death of characters makes everything great than Ousama game and Another would have been masterpieces. And does this show consider me an idiot.It introduces every single character every single time. Overhaul may have got what he deserved but that nerf makes no sense. i had high hopes from My hero after season 2 and now it just disappoints. |

| Why did they add the part of Deku throwing Overhaul to the ground to this episode summary instead of adding it to the climax of the battle of the last episode??? I think this isn't the first time this happened... |
| Well I'll be damned. They actually killed him after the battle. I take back what I previously said. Anyway I actual kinda feel bad for Chisaki there. That was pretty cruel. Plus the way they drew him was very sad to look at. |
| Great episode without doubt, with some emotional stuff! Eri's powers were destroying Deku, but thanks to Eraser, they managed to stop Eri's quirck! Shigaraki made his move, Chisaki is done for, Shigaraki was truly savage! I am glad like almost everyone will be able to recuperate with time! Seems Eri's quirck will stay in stand back! Nighteye's moment was really heartbreaking, seems no one was able to save Nighteye, and it was really sad, that All Might after all these year, would see Nighteye in this conditions, also Deku's moment talking to Nighteye was really sad, and Mirio's and Nighteye moment was really touching, i couldn't stop my tears, it really strike in my feels! Curious for the following episode! R.I.P Nighteye, was short the time seeing him, but it was worth! |
 |
| Personally, I was glad to have the LoV perspective.. It's a nice contrast to the usual bubbly-bubbly nature of the heroes side (I think there's a vigilante spin-off that delves a bit further into that). So it was nice to see that a success doesn't mean everything is okay. I mean, the muscle-dude, Stain, and so much else... a lot of former events had endings that were basically a miracle. I'd say it was about time that Deku sees that it can't always be like that. |
| "You know you've reached peak quality when a doujin is better than the actual source series." (Eg. To LOVE-Ru) Just to list a couple of biases. Likes: A good story, characters, writing, romance, a good plot twist or something that breaks expectations (In a good way), 'backstory' and justice. Dislikes: Bad romance, too much fanservice, the harem genre, yuri, yaoi, and bad writing. |
| So sad episode. What about that moment when Nighteye touche Mirio's head? |
-¡Give yourself to me! |

Most of you watched GoT even when it went to shit but you all finished it, critiqued it and watched all the youtube vids about how devoid of logic it was, so. Yep, pretty much this. When there are so many issues to a point where viewers have to imagine a plot where it makes any sense, it just shows the lack of quality of the writing. Anyway, for me this was still one of the best episodes of this season, it finally moved the story away from this mess and it was still emotional. Eh I wouldn't take that guy very seriously as the "viewership" because honestly I don't think most viewers have that much of a problem with this. At least not to the point of screaming about how "confusing and plot-hole ridden" it is like he is doing. The majority of the audience in general are pretty chill about this. |

| I used to be a watchmaker. |
| Chisaki a.k.a Overhaul, pretty much is trying to be another Stain in the move to create another "good" for evil, he is no different from being an idealist Stain in the move to make an alliance with the League of Villains, judging by the overall arc. Its a good thing that the Pro Heroes are alive, thanks to Izuku's massive efforts to twist Nighteye's foreseen future. But the League of Villains, especially Shigaraki, are always the true victors on the sidelines, now that Overhaul is done and dealt with as a nobody. Overhaul is only the tip of the iceberg, Shigaraki truly is the evil to be eradicated. The damage itself was more severe than ever thought with Nighteye's passing, but not before he acknowledged the immense courage of Mirio and doubtless thoughts of Izuku, to conceive a bright future. RIP Nighteye. You will be missed. |

| This was a very smart death. It had seemed like the stakes had dropped, and the heroes managed to achieve victory with no sacrifice. And yet, there is always a sacrifice. RIP Nighteye. |
  We don't know what kind of people we truly are until the moment before our deaths. As death comes to embrace you, you will realise what you are. That's what death is, don't you think? ------------------------------------ Itachi Uchiha |

Overhaul may have got what he deserved but that nerf makes no sense. i had high hopes from My hero after season 2 and now it just disappoints. Funny, how manga readers touted this arc to be the best arc, but it's the woest arc so far imo. Overhaul's introduction was cool and all but he is a pretty bad villain. Same with his punks. All have some cliched, forced, down your throat flashbacks. And ironically, the flashbacks just made it more apparent how weak these characters are. |
 |
| This is why i watch My Hero Academia Not for the fights Not for the action But i watch it because of how it deals with consequences and is able to write somber and quiet scenes with typical but fun characters, not innovative but fun, energetic and with their own identity Also nice parallelism between Chisaki's introduction, his first meeting with the League and the scene on the highway Best arc? I don't care because i don't rate shows like this, i see the bigger picture |
| May our sweet and Merciful Madoka be with you |
| I'm surprised about how the nurse's kiss couldn't save Sir Nighteye (ﾉД`). |
 |
| Episode was ok... Chapter 160 in the manga was always great for the energy it gave in every panel, but the anime once AGAIN didn't elevate or expand it meaningfully. Always wanted Horikoshi to focus more on Nighteye in the climax since the guy is literally getting killed off. I don't really have a strong impression for the arc as a whole. |
 |
| while this arc was my favorite in the manga i'm not sure if i like the adaptation or not, i think i kind of expected more or rather expected it to turn out differently as a whole, i've read up to this season in the manga and stopped so i can watch the anime without knowing what's going to happened, for the most part i hope they do the other important fight in this season justice. |
| Overhaul is bad villain but I feel sad when Shigaraki remove his power ;( A devastating episode T-------T Nighteye died 😞 huhuhuhuh |
 |
| Although it was few chapters of the appearance of nighteye, one already knows with everything he did in this battle, he made a great hero like Mirio and helped all might as his helper in his time, he did even motivate deku that he could change the future, I cried for all that. |
 |
| It's super sad to see Nighteye die this episode. But at least the show is open to the possibility that not everyone makes it out alive in these types of battles. It would get overly boring if characters on the brink of death always got bailed out. |
| I forgot to say in the previous episode but that attack of Deku was like a combination of Saitama's punch and Luffy's gatling gun. Badass. Also RIP Nighteye. I bet he saw Mirio migrating to US and becoming the president after changing his name to Trump. |
 |
| Finally watch 12-14 damn Eri & Izuku is a scary combo once eri manages to control her quirk..also leauge of villains taking advantage of the situation what shigaraki did to overhaul was dirty, as much as i hate the guy... RIP nighteye was huge asset,his foresight & investigations.will be miss. |
 Made by k3ti |
| Can't believe Nighteye actually died...i thought Eri would save him :/ R.I.P Nighteye. So Overhaul is now quirkless??? I find a little stupid how they handled the transport of the villains, but wtv. Great episode and an even better arc ending! I'm speechless. |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| I have to admit, I wasn't that emotional till Togata came in, but what really hit me was the giant grin on his face as he died, truly shows how much he admired All Might. |
| RIP Nighteye. It's rare for Bnha to get me emotional yet this season had me in tears with every twist. Can't wait to see best boy Mirio again |
| Violence & revenge in the first part: I enjoyed it a lot! Savage League! But it was crystal clear something would happen... why do always the useless people get to transport soon-to-be-prisoners? lmao Heartbreak & farewell in the second part: Thanks, Sir Nighteye. They will keep fighting for the future they want to see 'n have, don't worry. Thanks for your last smile. Goodnight (T-T) (The calm before the storm? What's gonna happen next? (O.O)) |
 |
| Definitely saw Night eye's death coming. Really loved Overhaul as villain but I guess this is the end of his arc, look forward to what we see next! |
| I have a third testicle that gives me psychic powers |
| Damn Nighteye's death hit me hard in this episode. Especially with Mirio's reaction. |
 |
| Since All for One battle, I find the manga loose something. Hype feel has disappeared. This arc was boring and Nighteye's death was useless because we don't know him at all. I'm feeling almost nothing, just sad for Mirio because he is a better character than Deku. And they waste Nighteye Quirk. They should use it to show us a little spoiler about future Deku Best hero of the world. Just a picture to show us he really change the future. |
