At first, I was kind of disappointed to hear that the first episode was a recap but I ended up enjoying the episode!
I guess it was a good way to do a recap based on what happened during the first two seasons and it was good to see the whole cast again!

I really liked seeing more Iida and Midoriya's friendship in this episode! ^^
Kaminari and Mineta was just funny in this episode when they wanted to see the females in their bikini's and it ended up with the girls in their one piece swimsuits! XD

This was a refreshing episode! I am so excited to watch the rest of season 3! Season 2 was just a masterpiece and I hope season 3 is the same! <3

Not a big fan of the new OP to be honest. I like the song and I like the visuals, but they really don't go well together. It felt like watching a poorly synced amv.

As for the episode itself, it was okay I guess. Not a big fan of the large amount of flashbacks.

Nice episode, but I didn't like how the girls got sidelined, they have quirks too, they fight too. Why not make it a competition of all of the students? Well, that annoyed me.

and spoiling this much in the op, smh. all the good stuff, man....

Opening sequence is supposed to this way. It is called "foreshadowing". You see characters, shadows, faces, without context, which you either don't know, can imagine or correctly decipher from the past and future occurrences in the series. They have properly done it, and are exemplary to most.

oh sure, that's some real subtle foreshadowing...

Hhmm, if it's Mineta's Idea and the place is pool... could it be? Oh boy, I should have know. LOL
Nice Prologue. They even insert that "gold" scene where All Might said to Midoriya that he can become a hero, and shed my tears... again. :')

This was dreadful. Starting off a season with such a filler ruined my expectations for the season as a whole. It was a really bad idea to start off like this. Also, is it just me, or did the animation look pretty bad in most of the pool scenes?

Very Nice Episode Overall.

It Was a Recap but one of the Better ones. I Still think this Should've beeen an Episode 0 butwhatever. The Pool Race was the Highlight of the Eisode Even though it was cut short by aizawa sensei. Nice to See MY BOY DENKI and Mineta up to their Pervy Shit like in S2 even though this time it didn't work out so well as in the Sports Festival. From next week on its Nothing but HYPE!!

Well if you're going to do a recap episode to refresh people's memories, I suppose this is better than most.

Bakugou once again showing that he's the most insufferable, pedantic, immature piece of garbage character in the cast. I wish I could mute his rants/screaming without turning the volume down for the rest of the cast.
Lol ... considering he made the episode actually not boring and he’s the most popular character this comment was a joke .


In all seriousness I must ask, how old are you? Since when has popularity served as a reliable indicator for quality in any sense?

I enjoyed this episode, I really like all the characters, so moments like this where everything seems fine and seeing them have fun are really nice to see!

However, the flashbacks were kind of a bore to me and personally, I didn't really need the recap of all the quirks of class 1A, although I understand why they put it in, since it's been a few months since the second season came out and it's hard to keep track of all the characters. I was also kind of sad we didn't get to see the race between Deku, Bakugou, and Todoroki.

It was a nice episode, but I really can't wait to get to the actual story.

The third season is finally here, but starting with a pool episode and a recap. It was pretty good I guess. Just a refresher on what happened last season and know everyone's quirk. Looking forward for the training camp.

The competition was fun but there was way too many flashbacks, this felt more like a recap with bits of fanservice.
The real start will be next week I guess.

Also I like Uverworld but that op had such a weird structure, I can't explain well but it didn't really fit. Maybe I'll get used to it with time but for now it's just weird.

The opening wasn't too impressive, and I wasn't really floored by the episode either. The dialogue and inner thoughts of the characters don't tell us anything different about them, but simply rehearse the same characteristics we already know they possess. I suppose it suffices as a decent recap, but other than that I was just not into it. So far it's a 5/10 from me.

Worst episode of the season so far, the opening is like FMAB opening 5, huge potential but sucks because of a really bad synchronisation.
The episode was horrible, don't care about a recap episode, there is Movie Recap things for that, this was supposed to be an Episode 1 of an official season not a freaking useless recap with filler.

He is still listed as 166 though, and I don't think he did. He just looks more fit now and they have probably did not draw him perfectly.

As soon as it was announced that this would be a recap/filler episode, I knew people would whine like babies, and I definitely wasn't wrong. lol. The same thing happened last year with the first episode of S2. Didn't see the issue with that, and I don't see the issue with this.

As much as this was a filler/recap I like it, this is how you do a recap, no just....word for word the plot, but add stuff to it, making it worth watching both as a refresher, and a story in itself.

If that is your honest thought process I am afraid you are there to just consume some "shows" for own enjoyment. Besides saying how wrong it is, that is...

Low key kind of wished this was a separate episode from the season like the previous time they did something similar for season two. However, for a filler episode it was ok. On another note, anyone else feel like visual and music in the opening seem a bit off from one another. They each sound and look good on their own, but together seem a bit questionable. Either way super hyped for season 3 and the rest of the goodies from this season.

The episode was ok, but ultimately disappointing. Can I already call it Anime of the year or that still isn't the general opinion to have? No, wait, anime of the year is Megalo Box, right? No, that's the Anime of the season if I'm not mistaken. Anyways, please confirm this and tell me what to think.
I rate this episode 5/5. Follow me on Twitter.

I didn't listen to the OP but doesn't matter. A soft episode but not bad. It feels like Deku has gained some weight and muscles or it's just been to much time since I've last watched this show. I'm happy it's beginning again, I have so much fun watching bnha cracks on yt. I feel like people were more hyped for TG than bnha.

Mostly a recap, but it was expected. Not sure how I feel about the opening yet, but I remember how everyone complained about 3rd SnK opening and a few weeks later the whole fandom was like 'SASAGEYO SASAGEYO'. Maybe it'll grow on people. Nice animation, like usually. Scenes with Shigaraki make me fangirl (like usually). And I was so happy to see the rest of the cast too. Can't wait for next episodes, I can already feel the cliffhangers killing me. For now, gonna slap it a 9/10 just in case.
