Damn, Deku struggeld quite a bit in this match even though he came prepared. Not too surprising since their opponents aren't pushovers.

Those black whips were hell of a sight to see though. Got to see a little bit more of Uraraka's past again this episode. Urakara's role on Deku's team is so important not just for support but also to help him get back on his feet.

Awesome episdoe except there are too many flashbacks on this battle. Hope the next ep gets better as it goes to the climax of the battle scenes.

Am I the only one getting irritated by these flashbacks for some reason? I mean they are good, but I wish those came out "after" the battles are over or before the battle begins.
Even if I'm alone, I'll go, even if I want to die.
I can hear your voice, saying I shouldn't die.
Even if it's difficult, even if I cry from loneliness
I can feel warmth from deep inside my heart.

Going round-and-round and flowing, time is ever-changing.
I can't remember what happened anymore, but
If I try and close my eyes, I can hear someone's laughing voice
For some reason, now, that is My Most Precious Treasure.

After a metric tonne of mediocre episodes, the series seems to have caught back its old footing, with ep9 and now this episode blowing my expectations out the park.

Midoriya being naive as usual and relying on the same plan as bakugo when he should've actually created a new plan is just like him, theoriticaly he breaks down what happens when it happens but for the life of him it seems like her can't think ahead still lol.

When he lost control of his powers was shown ridiculously well, and the way they conveyed his emoitons of confusion, desperation and outright steadfastness was brilliant to watch.

Episode did well to remind us that uraraka isn't some useless side chick that comes in once in a while to remind us that there's some romantic feelings between her and deku, rather showing her reasoning and emotions really rounded out her personality and put some gravity to the situation, making her seem truly out of the world - puns intended.

Shinso also finally seems to be enjoying himself, before he was caught up in the idea of winning now he truly seems that he wants to win but he also wants to have fun, he realised that its no the be all end all situation that he initially played it out to be.

Aizawa definitely made the right call there, deku got his new powers under control with the help of shinso, and whilst it could be dangerous, the teachers are within close proximity so everything should be okay!

Solid episode, hope this continues!

The 5th and final match: Izuku's team vs. Monoma's team feat. Shinso, and a totally same-but-different expectation for this one.

Other than All For One's judgment that has Gran Torino's old geezer memories all fuzzled up about Izuku's dream of the vestiges, a noteworthy classification for the 2nd haff of the season.

Putting that aside for now, Izuku's team facing a great deal of trouble against Monoma's team in both physique and mental concerns. At least for Izuku, One For All going out of control is an immediate cause for concern.

Looking back at Urakaka's backstory, it's similar how both her's and Izuku's dreams and hopes are one and the same, and her valiant effort to stop Deku's power from the berserk with Shinso's Brainwashing quirk is amazing. Combine that with the various power of the vestiges of One For All to help provide better control (one being Black Whip, and the other 6 unknown), this match intensifies for the future predictable and yet not.

It's up to Izuku to master what he can muster out of One For All.

What an episode. This season started really weak, but now I understand why this arc is important. What the hell man? Deku is getting a new quirk?That was amazing. This was the most important episode for this series. I still do not know what all for one is planning. I am glad that I am super excited for mha again. Uraraka was cute and good too.

We've finally arrived at a long awaited event to make its anime debut, blackwhip! Its so good to be able to talk in the open about blackwhip and Deku inheriting all the previous users quirks. This is a HUGE turning point in the series, not just for Deku but it begins us down a path that becomes more relevant as we go. Deku seeing that big burly guy inside one for all telling him he can't come from a place of anger. His power must come from the heart if Deku is to use it properly. Deku cannot lose his way, he must always remember where he came from and how hard it's been to get even here. Monoma talking some smack trying to get Deku to bite, leading to blackwhip being being brought out. We get a good look at the other class b teammates quirks with twin impact, size and poltergeist having some devastating effect on the class a team. Uraraka helping Deku out realizing hes in trouble, some quick thinking by her to get Shinso brainwashing to get Deku out of the vestiges. Blackwhip going wild caused some problems, but now he's got it under control for the time being. This is a big moment I'm glad to have finally seen animated! The fight continues next week!

Of course, it's Midoriya episode, nothing is gonna be normal when he's around, even just a training episode.

But does this mean that what Deku use is just All Might power so far? Does this mean he also have his own special power? (Besides One for All and its predecessors powers)

But thanks that One for All quirk is not an indicator of how far tge story progress. Otherwise this episode will be just 2/8 or 1/4 of the whole story. But I also hope it's true because I want the story to continue for a very long time!

Shinso is the hero of Deku, but I hope the one that hug Deku is Bakugo! LOL

this season is finally going now with what feels like some actual plot progression. interesting seeing a past predecessor being able to communicate with Midoriya and explain some things. looking forward to seeing what his new powers will be and how he will be able to control them.
it would make sense to me if Midoriya went to Shinsou after this match for more brainwashing to attempt to talk to the predecessors more

I get goosebumps whenever the sound completely stops in a scene. It means some “oh we’re fucked” moment is about to happen. And it happened. Well, nobody seems to be hurt, at least for now - I hope the stakes will increase.

He’s gonna get 6. New. Quirks. That’s insane.

I’m always hyped to see every characters reaction to how goddamn strong Midoriya is, but it seems the enemy team quickly continued with their plan lol

Shinso is great, no idea why he had to think what to say to Midoriya when Midoriya would clearly answer him anyway, to stop his berserk power.

Also smol Uraraka is TOO ADORABLE

I don't think he's gonna get more quirks anytime soon even in the manga I don't think he has all of them in the final arc (no one spoil something pls)
He's prolly gonna need some time to use this one remotely effectively

Well first of all I knew that Deku would get more quirks because of manga spoilers, of course. I give that ep 5 out of 5!! 9 and lower of season 5 was boring but this just makes this season even more exciting. As I said about manga spoilers Deku looks epic in the future...which I’m hoping they put into the anime. Manga Deku, 10000000000/10000000000!! I’m so excited for the next ep to come out because of this.

You know how Dabi came up to Endeavour after the Nomu vs Endeavour well I think Dabi is going to reveal his real name in season 5. If you don’t know who his real name is then what I just said wouldn’t of made sense to you. I’ll just say that Endeavour and Dabi are VERY close but Endeavour doesn’t know that because he doesn’t know his real name...OH MY GOSH I CANT WAIT UNTIL SOMETHING HAPPENS BETWEEN THEN AND...something!!!

I’m trying to just keep away from this manga spoiler about them...

Finallyyyyy! I was honestly not the biggest fan of the Class A vs. Class B fights so far this season but this episode more than made up for it. Seeing Deku’s facial expressions and the emotion as he’s trying to control his new power, Uraraka holding him trying to calm him down, and finally Shinso helping him with his brainwashing while he still looked freaked out. Also can’t wait to see how OP Deku gets eventually xD.

You know what everyone has been saying that Bnha has one of the worst fandoms. It may be true for some aspects but lemme say one thing. Thank you manga readers.

If something like this was on an another anime it should've been already spoiled. Nearly everyone knows the ending of Aot because manga readers spoils it here and there. But look at Bnha like I didn't even had the slightest idea that something like this was coming

Pretty good ep, he got a new quirk and had a chance to talk to an old user of One For All.
Would have been better if they did those flashbacks after the fight.. killed the mood but aside from that. Animation, voice acting and ost were good.

Oh boy... the shit went down really quickly. Deku not being able to control his quirk in the middle of the match was a scary moment. That could've been dangerous. Later finding out, that Deku has manifested six more quirks from all the previous predecessors.

Anger is the thing that makes him go out of control so he needs to calm down his anger and control his emotions. The fifth match will not be stopped but will continue in the next episode.

Things really got out of hand for Deku, as his powers went completely haywire. I do love Uraraka in this episode, as got a little flashback for what she saw in heroes when she was younger. She's spot on to ask about who can protect the heroes when they go through their own turmoil, so I was happy to see her taking the initiative to help out Deku as best as she could while getting Shinso to help out with his quirk. This is another reason why she's my favourite female character from this series. =3

Another part I enjoyed about this episode was Deku being approached by one of the One-For-All predecessors who talked to him about the whip quirk and how Deku has 6 more quirks inside him waiting to be unlocked. That sounds crazy, considering how strong Deku already is.

Either way, with Deku in control of his power again, the match will resume as normal, so I look forward to seeing who'll will win. =)

'You're the one who will complete One for All'. Interesting.

It's satisfactory to see that this arc is slowly improving with each episode.

I look forward to see these other six additional quirks that Deku will unlock and manifest.
