THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Ooh, I thought this episode was rather interesting with the way Kota bonded with Deku. Obviously, they don't know each other well yet but Deku tries to explain about him.

In the meantime, we also get some moments from the Villains side as they've arrived. Seems Dabi is in charge of their little group.

The training session is also turning out to be a lot tougher than what some of them expected lol.

And it's "Kota" this week, the 41st episode overall adapting Chapters 72 and 73 from Volume 9 of the original source manga. It's time for some quirk strengthening! And in most cases that involves repeated and prolonged use. Good luck hanging in there everyone. I'm not sure I wanna know what horror Tokoyami was facing.  Well it was nice to see the rest of the Pussycats this week. Namely Tiger and Ragdoll. The four of them make a nice team, but what about the titular Kota? Seems Young Midoriya knew a bit about his parents. Yes, the general public's feelings regarding quirks aren't exactly uniform. And considering his own circumstances it figures Izuku would empathize with Kota. But the poor child just isn't having any of it. Well as Todoroki said actions speak louder than words. The partnering up and attempted trades during the test of courage were fun. Arguably the two best-girls in Uraraka and Tsuyu even got paired up. But with a group from the league of villains on the scene courage isn't the only thing that's about to get tested! Look out Kota!

Great episode.

Quirk strengthening is tough training.
Nice to see more of Class B.

DAMN Villains are here. A lot of chaos to come.

Plus, it looks like the Pussycats are injured now as well. Deku would prolly run to Kota to save him.

I wonder who are the 3 remaining villains they were talking about.

I'm definitely looking forward to next episode.

I loved seeing that training montage.

Tiger is funny. He really does stand out in the pussycat group

The OST at the end was unexpected and I love it!

I feel bad for Momo...

Ayye that was pretty awesome, they did the attack on the camp beginning pretty nicely especially the soundtrack.

Now we are really getting into one of the best, if not THE best arc.

A lot of comedy on this episode. The training seems hard and tough. The methods used were rather interesting.

Deku speaking with Kota about society and remembering his past when he had no Quirk was a good moment. Kota is a stubborn kid.

League of Villains finally make a move with Dabi as the leader. The poison was a clever idea by them, with a fitting music. UA students and Kota are in trouble.

Also class b ll never be relevant so it's a little annoying that they constaintly show them saying next time we ll beat u class a just you wait even tho we all knew it's never gonna happen. I mean there are enough characters in class a that need to be developed and they are already diverse enough and cover a great variety of personalities so I think they just rather focus on developing them.

You could just feel how talented Rie Matsumoto as a storyboarder is. The entire composition and overall quality was just better than usual. Shows that Rie really has a hang for quirky ( heh ) scenes with lots of comedic timing.

All right all right all right now we're talking. The training was perfect, but the funniest was Kaminari's, those faces lol.
And the animation for Todoroki's ice and fire blows was awesomely detailled.

Finally some new OSTs when Deku talked with Kota and when the vilain attacked, it was lit af btw.

Next episodes are gonna be insanely good.

Lol, class B's training regiment was so fucking awesome and hilarious at the same time. Iida running all around, Bakugou constantly saying "shit!", and Midoriya with his "yessir!". It must've been quite a sight for class A!!

Oh wow, the ambush has already started!! Can't wait for the next episode!!

Holy hell, those trainings were funnier than I thought they'd be, especially Kaminari's. I didn't expect to laugh a lot this episode so I was definitely pleased with the comedy here. Animation and art was really polished and detailed, loved it! The full group of Wild Wild Pussycats was entertaining. Nice to see the students of 1-B too.

Villains finally arrived at the scene. The build up was executed well with menacing OSTs in the background and demeanor in the villains. It's going to be more action-packed from here on!

Ya see, they make cliffhangers work. The episode was a bit pedestrian and it didn't have much "Woa" moments; the protagonist goes to reassure a conflicted individual (probably with same intention All might has when approaching Bakugou).
Although it did have it's humourous moments e.g.

What the hell is the Pussycat Pliabody teaching those Power-up types; that's choreographed dancing, that is.
Seemed like disco

Again, I can't wait for next week, it's gonna be intense

The class A may have a rough time but yet they look energetic, well as they say "no pain no gain". More interaction between deku and that kid Kota. Finally, the league of villains made their appearance, some good stuff is coming and I'm excited to see it!

The training montages were pretty funny, but the fun and games are over now. The real test of courage will now begin as the villains make their move. I can't wait to see the action animated, as this show has proven time and again that its animation is great. I expect that to continue going forward.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Well he gets saved by Deku, we get a motivating speech, he changes his mind about heroes and his role ends there? That'd be the most obvious turn of events.

Oh this episode was awesome! And it really flew by without me noticing - the pacing is great.

P.S.
Todoroki's and Bakugou's scared reaction were hilarious. Those two kids who always act unfazed, seeing them startle into halting was way more funny than i expected. Plus, Tokoyami's chuuni side kept coming out. XD

That cliffhanger was so brutal. They caught me slipping emotionally, I genuinely care about these kids and their safety and I'm worried for them. I love when a show hooks me like this. Can't wait until next week.
