      He can't be getting that much older, the whole series (anime at least, not sure about the manga) hasn't even passed the first full year at UA, so less than two years overall, with most of that time being skipped over in an episode montage.

    I always thought the scene where Uraraka was stretching at the beach in OP2 was something else. Uraraka always wanted her parents to have an easier life, and mentioned how she wanted them to have a holiday at a Hawaiian beach. The shot could've been her using that as a form of motivation for the tournament, but I can't deny saying your point isn't valid, Mr Basement

While Iida, Todoroki, Bakuguo and even Kirishima were aiming for Deku's 10M points, she wanted to team up with Deku to get through the round. Her fight with Bakuguo gave her a idea of where she stands and gives a motivation to train under Gunhead.

    Well, the fact that everybody was soaring through the sky in the first op , except Deku, could symbolize that the rest of his classmates already have a lot of experience with their quirks, and they're moving forward very quickly, meanwhile Deku is starting from square one and he has to catch up with everyone else right away.

      That would be a great foreshadowing for season 3 as Deku said Kirishima is the only character that Bakugo trust. And it would be crazy what would happen if Kirishima Traitor theory comes true. It would have a great impact on Bakuguo.

  • @Hannahmelody2000
    @Hannahmelody2000 7 ปีที่แล้ว +146

    The thing with Kirishima being in the OP makes sense though. He may not seem that important to this season, but while getting more screentime than he did in season 1, season 2 also showed a few important moments of him starting to bond with Bakugou, slowly cementing his relationship with the class and what'll probably be his role in the long run of the story. We get 2 instances of the second OP puting emphasis on him when it didn't really need to, because while his moments aren't necessarily big moments, they are important and the show is trying to emphasize that.
    If you think back to the cavalry battle, he's the first person Bakugou bothered to call by name because he's also the first person who earned a bit of his respect with his 'I'm going to be an unbreakable horse' line, to be followed by Mina and Sero, who prove themselves to Bakugou during the battle itself. That seems like a minor moment, but it gains a lot of significance when you think about it and realise that this is the show setting the foundations for Bakugou's slowly developing relationships within the class. The cavalry battle was a defining moment for that.
    The show is being really subtle in their way of trying to focus our attention on the minor moments that will count for a lot, and if you think about it, it all makes sense. All this happens only a short time before they began highschool and their relationships are only really starting to take form - not to mention that considering how long the story will probably end up being, season 2 is still barely the begining. We're only just starting to meet most of the characters, the main cast beyond Deku is barely established, and we haven't even dipped out toe into Bakugou's inevitable development. At this point, beyond the huge moments like the Todoroki - Deku fight, most of what's happening is still just setting the groundwork for what's going to be a long-runing story, and some of the things which will prove to be the most important probably seem like mere details at this point in time.

    • @Tharppedo
      @Tharppedo 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Kirishima becomes more important than Todoroki for the next arc and even more than Bakugo after that. I don't think that will be a permanent thing but he is a pretty major Character.

    • @Hannahmelody2000
      @Hannahmelody2000 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      True. It's not that obvious at this point in the anime, but Kirishima has a pretty important role as part of the class. This arc is simply building that up and pointing it out to us. I'm pretty sure that in the future, as the story keeps going, this will apply to most of 1A's characters since they'll all probably get important roles in different arcs and get development just like Todoroki has and like Kirishima will, but given his purpose in the class, I'm pretty sure kirishima will continue being a constant presence.

    • @Hannahmelody2000
      @Hannahmelody2000 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Maybe so, but I still think it ties into the fact that that popularity still has everything to do with how major his role is. This arc is where his friendship with Bakugou starts, and that's a very important moment because it sets the tone for Bakugou's character development and for several important moments later. I think it's probably a combination of both these factors, since the show does still need to bring our attention to these moments of his which most people would pretty much forget otherwise.

    • @FairyFreak100
      @FairyFreak100 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      They weren't talking about the arc you're thinking of in terms of him being "more important than Bakugou," I don't think. They were probably referring to the most current arc in the manga. (Sorry for being vague. Trying to avoid spoilers as much as possible.)

    Those first ten seconds in the second OP are still my favorite just because of the roll. The music combined with the scene was, in my mind, perfect.
    I also found it really touching that they put toru there with Deku on the roof

  • @madaadam9383
    @madaadam9383 7 ปีที่แล้ว +89

      Perry Dunetz , I subscribe to the theory. It makes sense. She can sneak easily, she was too far away from Todoroki at the USJ for her to have been telling the truth there, and she knew things she shouldn't about other characters. It really makes sense.

      C.G. G No, he's scared and threatened by Deku. Notice how different he is when he's fighting Deku and when he's fighting everyone else. In his fight with Deku, he was desperate to assert and prove himself as the superior one, while in his fights with others, he's relatively more cool and level-headed(unless his opponent has greatly offended him like Todoroki did), confident in his strength and fighting skill. This is also something Uraraka noticed when she observed Deku and Bakugou's final term exam fight against All Might, that anything involving Deku results in Bakugou becoming more aggressive.

    • @v1v10rnitier
      @v1v10rnitier 7 ปีที่แล้ว +22

      type moon This is actually explained in the manga, because when Deku jumps down to help him as a child, he sees this as deku, a powerless person, looking down on him when before this everyone else would do nothing but proclaim his amazing future as a hero. It went against everything he had been told since he got his powers and he couldn't accept this.
      which is sad considering Deku was only showing true concern for a friend...

    In WII, the image of Japanese cherry blossoms was militarized by the government for use in propaganda. The cherry blossoms could also symbolize conflict and war. The blossoms also symbolized the heroism of sacrifice for one's nation, which echos the heroism of the series and the way that deku destroys his body in order to be a hero. ALSO, SHINSO'S PART IN THE 2ND OP IS IMPORTANT. You'll notice everyone shows off their quirk in the op except.... Shinso. The non-flashiness and the darkness of his scene captures Shinso's dilemma pretty accurately. Here he looks like he might be a fking villain lmao.

  • @viviolet7

Meanwhile, all the passerby have the super-useful, hella helpful umbrellas and pay it no mind. Additionally, they're all clumped together.

He could have very easily been another sasuke, a stupid edgelord with a sob story and no redeeming qualities, but they are opting to actually make him a good character. Rather than cheaply justify his shittyness with a tragic back story, they are starting to develop him into a real character. I'm glad I can like bakugo now.

    I think there is some meaning in the Shinsou part.

This conveys his state of depression when he was placed in the general studies course, until he sees a ray of hope that he might some day enter the hero course.

    I think it's also worth mentioning that in a lot of shots Bakugo somehow gets the spotlight. In the first OP where "the most important students of class A" are shown he is the only one who doesn't dissapear into the background and nearly fills the whole screen, in the "endcard" of the first OP he is in the center of all heroes, being the only one who isn't tighly flanked by any other character filling a lot of space. He is also the first one to be shown during the stretching shots of OP2, allthough Todoroki is the focus of that arc. In the confrontation shot of the same OP he is standing in front of everyone else on the same level as Todoroki and in the last shot of the he is also by far the biggest character on the screen taking roughly half the screen. The third opening does something similar in that regard.
