Bakugo is annoying as hell, as always. Long time no see Todoroki and the other school people.

So judging by the OP and ED this arc is not going to be focused on fights and action (or at least not as heavily) which is good, because Overhaul was a pretty bad arc to be honest. I just hope that Endeavor begins his redemption soon.
We are very close to Endeavor's Arc. just saying.

OT: Does anyone know who sings the ED? I know the OP is by Kana Boon but Who sings the ED?

Yes, I know about Endeavor´s, I have seen a few screenshots of him and also Rooster Boi.

well, i think it's safe to rate this season as it is. the next two arcs are the most boring ones in the manga, so there is nothing else exciting this season has to offer

Best episode of the season so far, and that says A LOT lol
damn, that hurts T.T cause the Overhaul is my second favorite arc in the manga.
plus the are probable going to mess up the Pro hero arc.


Eh it doesn't mean much. Always dissing on the show even then in the manga.

Since the platform is bankrupt I will have to share it here:

The direction they are taking with the season production is wrong. They cannot turn this series into Naruto and do different moods/style. But this is only a hypothesis, and it is a wrong one. The change of staff simply decimated the quality of this season, and the opening/ending sequence quality with it. Most regretful.

The ending is a decent one and without a doubt has more value than this opening ever will.

A good episode. I like that its giving us time to show us how that arc affected the characters before immedietly moving on. Espcecially for Deku and his doubts about having One for All.

But dam they've really lost it with the amazing OP spree they had. This new one and the last havent been as good as previous OPs. Its a shame cause normally this is normal for series but MHA was the one series I could point to to show a series that had consistantly good OPs. Oh well. Hope they bring some good ones later on. The ED this time is good though. Last ED was great and this one is also pretty good.

Ive heard this next arc isnt particuarly amazing so I'll keep my expectations low but it was nice to see Gran Toreno. Cant wait to see what kind of talk Endevor and All Might have.

I legit forgot this arc even happened and was expecting the next one, which we probably won't even get this season. Eh. Well at least we got more Kana-Boon music, though can't say I like it as much as some of their past songs.

Aight, new opening! "Polaris" really grew on me, but it's important to have a variety so you don't get sick of the same opening the whole season. The new opening is fine, although it's honestly hard for me to take KANA-BOON seriously since I always immediately associate them with "Silhouette" (their song that was an opening for Naruto: Shippuuden). I also appreciate that the opening prominently focuses on Kyouka, my favourite character.

But enough about the opening, let's talk about the episode. Everyone seems surprisingly chipper after last episode's events, especially Mirio. Also, we finally get to see Kemii (the real one this time).

Ending sounds good too. Also, is that a younger Himiko in one of the photos?

Damn what a good op.

In 1minute and 30sec they showed more creativity and care than in the 14 god damn previous episodes.

Somehow I'm not mad, because the festival is definetly one of my favorite arcs, but man, imagine what Overhaul could have been with stuff like that.

It also looks like a lot of staff member are back from the movies, so we can expect something way closer to the quality the show is used to.

What a difference of an Opening compared to all the others, I like it. It's refreshing.

Not much really happened this episode, but there was a lot of reflecting back on the recent events.

Most interesting is that colossal of a guy they met in the forest... He has some insane power!

The episode was great, the op's colorful palette and backgrounds reminded me of JoJo Part 4's first opening (Crazy Noisy Bizarre Town), which is one of my favourite openings ever. so my opinion is a bit biased on that. MHA endings are always great so the new one is unsurprisingly great aswell.
I'm really excited for this new arc, character development is always great and this one seems to have alot of it.

You could really sympathize with Ochako, Midoriya, Tsuyu and Kirishima. Man they have been through a bunch of shit.

The op and ed were amazing. Really enjoyable.

Gran Torino’s scene was really interesting, wtf has One for All hidden. I was expecting that from Mirio and Eri, but, Mirio with quirk got affected and went back to a Mirio without quirk, if Eri only go backwards, Mirio cannot recover his quirk this way, getting his quirk is going forward, as I understood.

Most of the scenes, were memories from previous episodes...
And the other ones, were Bakugo/Shoto irrelevant scenes...
The best part was the Gigantomachia scene, that sadly lasted less than 2-3minutes

I know, villains/fights cant appear in each episode, but at least they could give us a teaser/taste of the upcoming fest...

Like everyone is saying, this season is the slowest one... they give us Epic Episodes or Boring Episodes, but not intermediate ones.

🙄 for 50 seconds the anime was better then the manga for the Overhaul arc, i'll give the anime that much. the pro hero arc is number 1 for me, but everything after that Well, you know. i actually held on passed That! but mva finished me off. also my score is high for all 3 seasons? i'm hating on season 4 and i just told you about the manga. so... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


Well I was referring to dicecop as they are always dissing the show & making snide comments about it.

And honestly I cannot understand your "sadness" over this season or anyone else's here for that matter. Everything looks as normal as before so I don't any problem.

So eh I guess.

No he is quite right, the opening lacks artistic value and does not encourage the viewer to "decipher" it. It is quite brand and hollow, except for that one part with the Eraser-Head at the end, when he is holding a sweater. He might lose someone else, if he had not before and I simply forgot.

New OP was alright; I liked the first cour OP better..
A part of me wants Mirio to get his quirk back but the other part thinks it would serve the narrative better if he went quirkless.

That giant creature All for One created looks terrifying!

And the real Cammie makes an appearance. If I'm remembering correctly, we haven't seen her quirk in the anime yet right?

That's a great find! Definitely supports the Dabi Todoroki theory! (Please don't spoil if this has been answered in the manga!)

Having not read the manga, I hope this cour plays out similarly to season 3 and avoids the formulaic mold of seasons 1 and 2.

Love this show! I think it continues to prove itself in the discussion for a top shounen product. The quality of animation, character development and narrative stakes which draw authentic emotion from its fan base started off strong and has continued to improve where as a show like 7DS has completely fallen off into obscurity.

why does a shounen OP need to be artistic and complex and need deciphering? It's a school festival arc. Nothing complex is gonna happen. this OP is perfect.

bakugo/shouto scenes aren't irrelevant. Next episode is their time to shine. Not every episode needs action-packed villain fights in order to be good. This is called My Hero ACADEMIA. You should already be expecting seeing students do school things. If u want endless fighting go watch HxH and Yu Yu Hakusho cause those' settings aren't in school and are all about fighting.

I do agree the memories/flashbacks may be boring, but that doesn't make them fillers. Fillers are anything that's anime-original, and this episode followed the manga exactly, so no matter how boring it is to u, that doesn't make it a filler.

New OP seems a bit bland song is decent at least.

Kurogiri was asking to be caught I don't know why but I'm sure he has his plans.

Mirio being optimistic left me with a bitter sweet feeling of both sadness and joy, made me love him even more.

I hope eri chan gets up soon enough, to help Mirio get his power again, that other disciple of all for one looks like a titan and probably stronger.

Uh not really. The manga was in the top 10 total manga sales last year at over 5 million sales. Definitely not cancel worthy by any stretch of the imagination.

Its not really dropping, its just sorta stabilized which happens to every long-running manga. No product goes up forever, it eventually reaches a cap, everything has a cap.

Also if the anime has ratings comparable to One Piece with a general average between 3.0 to 4.5 million ratings then saying its not successful is an idiotic statement.

An arc that about best girl Kyoka finally... and quite literally... takes central stage. Sure, it's basically a culture festival arc, but it's one has surprisingly gathered my somewhat waning interest.

I hope it continues that, because last arc, I was basically counting the episodes till we got to the big battle. Although, with that and the revenge of our villain, made the payout mostly worth it.

...Or that's what I'm currently waiting for. The OP got me excited, I blew my comment load, and I'm left with an epilogue with a little extra. I guess that makes sense. Can't run gun-ho into the best part... for now.

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.
