Both some nice just fun episodes to hold us over until the next season in a few months. The baseball episode had a ton of funny moments with players knocking each other out basically every at bat. As a huge baseball fan myself it's fun to see it in anime no matter what the occasion is. The heroes definitely went all out especially each team captain really putting the pressure on their team to win. Even going back to the game after stopping the villain driving that truck. But all the students from both classes that we've come to know each using their quirks for different advantages while batting and fielding. Overall the first episode definitely lighter and just for fun with plenty of good baseball moments.
The second episode a bit more serious but also funnier. With a villain that makes people laugh for hours with his quirk its bound to be a fun time too. Deku got the spotlight appealing to this laughing villains good nature. The villain wasn't really hurting anyone, not really, just vandalism paintings and making people laugh. Nothing overtly harmful or malicious. So its easy for Deku to see why someone like him with a useful quirk would turn to crime. Deku did s good job making the villain see hoe he could help people and spread his paintings without causing any more of a nuisance. It wad funny seeing tough guys like Bakugo and Endeavor cracking up without being able to stop. Overall another fun episode that had a good message too.
