| Most satisfying!!! Bakugo just blasted away everyone. What a plan he had. Simple but completely on them. Bakugo just shocked everyone by saving Jiro. But as always he was really horrible. I don't understand who will be the most terrifying? Bakugo or some villain? Sero was quit amazing this time. He has improved a lot. What an amazing calculation! He just got the lizard girl. Wielding guy was in this game. He was the one who wielded the transmitter in the Season 3. Nice to see him again. Sato and Jiro did amazing too. However they didn't got much to do as Bakugo had their back always. Now the most awaited fifth match. This is going to be tough. In all case Izuku is in disadvantage. I can count on Uraraka and Minoru. They showed amazing skills in past but Mina is new to this combination. Hope the great strategist Izuku Midoriya can come up with something. However Monoma and Shinso are now the real threat. Both have quite horrible kind of quirks. This match could be a loss for 1-A. |
KuHaKu36 said: Yep totally agree with you! He is the best of all. Finally someone with logic. Bakugo was always the strongest of all. His techniques are incredible. No wonder he won without any harm. Ashhk said: I'm disappointed by Bakugo's fight, it got finished too quickly with 4 - 0, not even tense :/ That was the point? Bakugo is easily the strongest first year, it makes sense that now that he's actually aiming to be a hero that both saves people and wins, that he'd be a powerhouse. Their team was literally perfect, they had no openings, and Bakugo made full use of it. Bakugo is the goat. |
| I have a small theory about the next episode. I think that, during the match, Midoriya might get something like that previous dream sequence, since this match is supposed to end this training arc, because it’s the last match, right? So that would either make them lose the match after having a big chance of winning, or idk, Midoriya would go apeshit? Maybe he’ll accidentally go 100%? Last time it happened OFA went nuts. I really hope Midoriya kicks everyone’s ass because he’s got a lot of powerful moves, he needs to show off a bit :D Though I'd like to see more Shinso fights too and maybe that combo with Monoma they talked about. |

| This season seems to be improving as of recent and I love it. I'm glad bakugo got to have an important role and it's nice seeing his growth. I' surprised it looks like we're getting closer to the arc conclusion |

| Bakugo changed his style so much, that he's turn his random draw ppls into the perfect team. Not even 5 mins, and they already dominated the playing field, lol. ___ ___ ___ And now we got Midoriya's fight. Not sure about this tho... Felt like this might be some sort of "set-up" fight, where Class A will lose, but Midoriya will obtain new powers after fighting against Shinso as previous episodes foreshadows. ___ ___ ___ Also, Midoriya most likely won't go "100%", since last time he used it, turns out it wasn't even 100%, but just 100% of what he currently have, which is less than 40% of the actual 100%... (even with the horn-loli's reverseing power, it wasn't at full power, cause he was taking mass amounts of damage and pain as he did it and it pretty much distract him from using the power at 100%) So if anything, Midoriya will probably just increase the amount of power he can draw out from One-for-All. |
| Nothing Written Here But Us Anime Bunnies *boing boing boing* |
| This episode will probably be my least favorite of the season. I've never been a big fan of Bakugo, he's kinda an unlikeable ass, and this episode did nothing to remedy my opinion of him. The only time I actually enjoyed his character was his fight with Deku in season 3. How he tops the popularity polls is as lost to me as Shindo getting ninth in the most recent one. This is the one match-up that failed to characterize any of the class B students, and with that being one of the main points of the arc, that's not the kind of failing you want. The "perfect teamwork" honestly felt contrived to me. I, like many, wasn't a fan of this arc when it was coming out in the manga, and while I've actually been enjoying this a lot more in the anime, match 4 just reminded me of the sour taste in my mouth I got from reading it the first time. Luckily, I know it'll only get better from here. |

| Great episode! I had no doubts this match will end quick because of Bakugou, but it ended too quick, and I mean too Quick >w> I got surprised Kacchan protected Jiro like that *-* He's changing! The hype for next episode will be huge, I can feel it! Let the final match begin :D |
 [*]My Completed List [*]♪Listen ► [/list][/left] |
| After 8 episodes we finally see Midoriya |
| I wonder which horny directive approves on those random ass-shots. Now it was Mina's turn to be under the asspotlight ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) But jesus, Tokage's team was owned so hard by Bakugou and co. Guess that's what they get for not doing proper research of their opponents. 5/5 episode. Bakugou was great and Sero doing his part with the grenade was so good as well. Oxalyc said: Bakugo is such a good guy!!!! He gave a massive kick to another girl to protect her instead of leaving her alone against an ennemy like he'd usually do! Truly briliant episode with a great of humanity and kindness! IKR! And he even had time to give some sweet words of encouragement to his nerdy childhood friend. God, wish I could have grown up with a friend like Katsuki! |
| great ep just like it was in the manga this is when things got much better for this little arc also am loving all the thicc this season |
| "one step at a time" |
| My favorite episode so far. I'm glad Bakugo is slowly growing & improving as a character. And watching him work with his teammates as they're destroying class B was really amusing too. My only issue is the fact that it was really short. There wasn't enough time for not even an inch of development for class B. Or at least some time to show us their true skills & techniques. |

| very nice! that was an overwhelming win by Bakugou's team!! didn't even took more than 5 minutes! damn! okay next-up is Deku vs Monoma!!! the hype is on! 5/5. |
 |
| Ngl it was cool seeing Bakugo fuck so much ass. But the fact that he was acting as a proper teammate was really nice. The callback to the school festival was a nice touch. |
CorporateChad said: Alright, Deku is up next match. Maybe the reason people the first half of this season so far is seemingly slow and boring, is because one, there isn't really much plot occurring, just training matches of the two classes, and also the MC hasn't even been active. The only time he used One For All was in the filler first ep Imagine if he says ONE FOR ALL FULL COWLING loudly.His secret would be known lol. |
 Scordolo's Recent Reviews To your eternity Vanitas no Karte |
| To some extend it was expected for me but damn Bakugou is such a beast. He improved so much and also his character, even if he doesn't want to admit it, changed. "When you guys are in danger, I'll save you! And when I'm in danger you guys save me!" Like All Might I also got chills, especially hearing this out of Bakugous mouth. Awesome to see his character developement over all that time because at the very beginning I was honestly not the biggest fan of him. Now we'll get the last match with Deku and Shinso which will hopefully as interesting and fun to watch as the match before. I wonder if Deku is alright. Atm he might feel like everything is normal but what happened to him the night before will surely effect him. Damn that shot of Minas thick ass *.* |

| Damn, what an episode! wow Bakugo surprised me in the best way, never thought i would hear him say that. Definitely a great fight to sum up everyone's evolutions. But now i can't stop thinking about the next episode, i do wonder how they all will help Midoriya xD It will be epic for sure, can't wait! |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| Ah Bakugo.... you love to see it. I enjoyed this episode and glad that it wasn't drawn out unnecessarily. |
The World Suffused with Sound.  |
| The only redeemable part of this arc are the ass shots |
| " Bakugo arrives to carry the show " |
 |
| Can't wait to see how polarizing the next episode will be, specially with how whiny and toxic this fandom can be. |
| This was the best episode of the season so far, but its still a mediocre season. They needed to come out strong out of the gate after the weak season 4 and that garbage Gentile Criminal arc. I will say the animation upgrade is superb, and the way they highlighted Bakugo's transformation was nicely done, but just fighting Class B over again is too low stakes for a 5th season. This anime is lacking an impressive overarching threat that can put it on a "Big Three" level. One Piece always had impressive villains, Bleach had Aizen, Naruto had Orochimaru and then Madara, but there's no real big threat for them to focus on. Just this kind of meandering league of villains who haven't done anything of note outside of All For One, and he's in prison. The anime has become more mediocre since he got locked up. Same with Stain. They need to step it up. And they really need to kill someone from Class A, so there's some kind of sense of danger or stakes. Kill the guy with the tape elbows off, or the one that talks to animals. Koji, I think. There's quite a few extra baggage characters they could kill to give this anime more heft and suspense. |

| Bakugo has developed so much as a person, it's great to see it! |
I think I don't know wtf I'm doing. Maybe. Probably. |
| welp, one short moment when Bakugo saved Jiro - and i supposed to drool all over and shout "KACCHAN CHANGED ALOT"? nope, he is still same jerk with villanious power hunger other teams thinks about strategy and quirks and he just rush forvard and auto-win boring best episode - still Shinso fight, because its really HARD and thoughtful earned victory |

Ironically, the next arc after this one will focus in the league of villains and none of the main protagonists will appear for like 12 episodes. And about the sense of danger, don't worry because this season is the build-up for what is coming next in season 6. Thanks for letting me know this is build up for season 6. If I didn't know that and watched this entire season and it remained mediocre, I would've probably dropped this anime. Now I can keep my expectations low and give it a shot for next year. |
| Finally this crappy arc is getting a bit better. |
