The mellow part Micky referred to when he said that is literally the training montage they already got out of the way this episode, which makes his comment even funnier to me.
Or how superman is called the "Man of Steel" or how Batman is called the "Dark Knight" or how Captain America is called "the First Avenger" or how Hulk is called "the strongest there is" or how Wolverine is called "The best at what he does" or how Deadpool is the "Merc with the mouth" or how Flash is "the fastest man alive" or how Loki is "Reindeer Games" (that last one ain't canon lol)
Chris, it's not just high school that's stressful in Japan. Kids are forced to pursue academic excellence right from the very beginning. If you don't get into good schools, it affects your ability to get into a good college. So you can't slack off and wait until the last minute to get serious. Entrance exams need to be passed for the better schools and it isn't just based on what neighborhood you live in. Japan ain't just animeland like a lot of westerners assume.
SnowyWolborg I’m pretty sure thats the point Chris was making. He picked up on the seriousness/competitiveness often displayed in schools in anime. American shows always focus on drama or comedy in schools, the academic part is entirely ignored a majority of the time.
@@foxfireespresso I'm up to date with the ani.e and partially keep up with the manga. Stand by whatever I said. Idk what I said because TH-cam is trippin
@@lunacysstraightjacket2121 if you are up to date then you should know (SPOILER ALERT TO ANYONE ELSE) that she said she would refuse to heal him anymore due to that. He can't just break himself knowing that she will heal him anymore because she doesn't like that behavior. Additionally he switched to shoot style to already avoid those compounding of injuries over time that happens even when she would heal, and with full cowling to keep from having to turn it on and off in certain parts of his body for the majority of his fights. Full cowling is quirk control, the percentage is based on his bodily strength which he works out all the time to up the percentage.
23:20 He's in General Studies. When Present Mic was announcing the classes, they panned to him entering the arena with his classmates after Present Mic said "Next up, general studies classes C, D, and E!". He also said that he was looking to transfer to the hero course earlier when he was calling out Bakugo. 24:32 Um, I don't think you have to have a quirk to get into UA. I think it's just incredibly difficult to get into the *_Hero Course_* without a quirk but I don't think it's a requirement. Also if you don't get into the hero course because you don't have a quirk or can't cut it, you could just go into the business, general studies or support course. Which would still make you a UA student. It's not said anywhere explicitly, so if I'm wrong please correct me.
Deku is the goat but Todoroki is my favourite character! They may be very different but I don't think I've liked a character as much as him since Zuko ❄️🔥
The purple haired kid was in general studies. The silver haired kid is in class 1-B. It's important to know the difference because general studies is just like...normal school. It's UA so it's a very good school, but they don't have hero training. Class 1-B is just the class next to Deku and crew's, so they're in the hero course already. All four courses (Bussiness, Support, General and Hero) are participating in the festival, and the arenas are divided by year, but obviously the hero kids are at an advantage because of the training.
Here is when you start to notice Bakugo's development. He is more humble in his abilities and is less cocky in the way he acts. And starts to acknowledge different students strengths, despite thinking he was better than everyone else
@Zeno nah he is better then everyone arguebly. He is also the most developed since he started getting it since episode 8 of season 1. Todoroki might be the second developed good but until season 2 todoroki was just that cool guy with cool powers. If bakugo is shit 90% of the cast be afwul because he is one of the strongest characters in the show and i don't mean physical strenght i mean as a character he is better then midoriya.
@Zeno I agree with you wholeheartedly. His asshole tendencies aren't excusable, he's a literal bully even Sasuke wasn't as big of an asshole personality wise.
@@mrbushido6823 noo that's the truth they are calm and calculated. Bakugo solely survives on raw power. He can't make plans can't even stick to a plan.
10:02 about what Mineta was doing, in Japan there is apparently a superstition that when you're scared, you need to "eat a human/person" to regain courage. To do that you write with a finger on the palm of your hand the character for "human/person":人 (hito) and then "swallow it".
svgftw his character from season 1 was a great introduction. Clearly looked strong, but people still underestimated him making the season 2 episode 2 reaction better when they realize how strong he is
HXH came first. Then Naruto happend and then Kishimoto was inspired by HXH and created the Chunin Exams. And the creator of my hero was a fan of Naruto and Later created the Sport exams. And now we wait for the next manga creator to be inspire by My hero!
Fun fact disclosed by the creator. mineta got in because he got a perfect score on the written test and did ok in the practical. He's probably the smartest in class who wasn't recommended going into the series.
But how did Invisible girl get in? We later known she’s not even in the top 10 students in terms of smarts, and for the practical I don’t know how she could even destroy any of the robots since she’s just a regular teenage girl but invisible?
@@brandonlyon730 The practical exam do not require the participants to completely destroy the robots, in Mineta case: He trap the robots by using his quirks, Tooru properly turn off the switch
20:40 Man, don't apologize for liking Mineta. You either like him or hate him and that is okay. Personally i find him entertaining and at times funny (that doesn't mean i condone his perverse attitude) plus for every shitty thing he does either Tsu or another classmate is there to check his ass, and that is where the comedy lies, by him being the butt of the joke. At least most of the time.
6:33 That is actually his father's quirk. The man is incapable of sleeping and became a doctor by studying while everyone else was asleep. It's not purple hair kids quirk but but shows good character design on horikoshi's part
My honest opinion. Is that Nahid is right. Todoroki is the strongest because of his quirk. But genius wise... Deku and Bakugou outclass him hands down.
Indeed. Hes pure power but Deku and Bakugou are so much more creative and better at improvising. Just look at everything Endeavour can do with his fire while Todoroki is really just still using both of his powers in a pure brute force way. Todoroki is being left in the dust by the other two right now in my opinion and its purely because Bakugou and Deku use their quirks a lot better even if their quirk isn't as strong (well obviously Deku's quirk is going to become better but it still isn't right now).
Excuse me but no to both of you. Midoriya is still shit at close combat. Also Midoriya had two teachers, All Might and Gran Torino. While Bakugou has the same quirk for all his life. What exactly has Todoroki had? He stopped using fire at the age of five. So saying Endeavor is so amazing with fire while Todoroki is brute force is you comparing someone with 20 plus years experience with his quirk to someone who started using it for few months and finding him short. Well done. And Todoroki also does not want to train with Endeavor. Atleast he didn’t until the recent arc. But he still got 3 new moves to his name and a new power up. How in the world in Bakugou leaving him in the dust? Todoroki changed his ice move, got close combat fire move which is so destructive it would off someone fire proof, got access to Endeavor level flames and learnt to control his op explosion in his Origin episode. He is arguably still the strongest and the reason he hasn’t gotten any special attacks like Bakugou is because he was busy trying to control a quirk he hasn’t used all his life with no masters or supports like Deku had. Doesn’t mean they are smarter than him. Also what powerups has Bakugou gotten other than AP shot exactly?
@@fablihakhan904 did shoto really stop using his quirk with five? Are you telling me all these flashbacks of Shoto'S training with his father only lasted until he was five? I always thought Shoto stopped using his quirk only when he actually had a choice about it (meaning when he started school.) His dad seems to think that his decision not to use his quirk is just a rebellious phase .... which doesn't seem to suggest that he doesn'T use it since 10 years but rather just a 'teenage phase'. .... else that would basically mean that Endeavor stopped training his son at age 5 .... that doesn't really fit what we know of the family history. That said. ... while I don't think Shoto is stupid, I actually think his strength mostly lies in his quirk. he has a very powerful and very versatile quirk. Both Deku and Bakugou I think are smarter, but Shoto is smart too. I also don't think Bakugo is leaving shoto in the dust....
fabliha khan thats cool and all but bakugo and midoriya still stomp todoroki, strongest quirk or not, those 2 can get inclose and its over cause todoroki is trash at close combat, theyre both fast enough and their mobility is up there &”stun grenade is just a defensive move “ the move is enough to get the drop on someone, he aint doing shit with ice if he cant see & also the howitzer impact that u claim to say he barely hit him with, well obviously he aint plan to obliterate the guy, hence why he hit his ice in that fight. What your not gonna do is try to downplay the other 2 just to upplay yours. He can be cool & all but he hasn’t done anything amazing
the seasons just get more extreme :') the only one that drops is second half of season 3 (bc the first half was so intense and the second was chill), but there were still epic moments at the end of season 3
@@-Gilver They considered people telling them Mineta was awful a spoiler for future event. This is litterally the same thing you're doing, except for Todoroki's dad instead of Mineta. In fact its worse because you're telling them how to feel about a character before they even meet that character.
From all the trounaments that they mentioned (Naruto, My Hero, HxH, DBS), DBS is the worst. The developing of the battles was awful. Just some fights were good like Goku vs Jiren for example.
DBS anime version of the tournament was FAR superior then the Manga version. the manga version has basically everything on speed, with Kefla basically taking everyone out not in universe 6,7, and 11, Krillin and Tien taken out off panel in the literal beginning of the tournament, and yeah Roshi fight Jiren for a bit which was the dumbest part. While the anime really dragged things out in the tournament we at least got an actual tournament, in the Manga the author basically has the whole thing on the fast forward button. About the only good thing in the Manga was that it actually gave Jiren more of a character and personality, but that’s about it.
The absolute best thing about this series of reaction vids is that you guys DON'T know what's coming and hearing your theory crafting about the direction you feel the show is going. Great groupthink, gang. Keep 'em coming.
Todoroki is pretty cool and very popular with fans, but personally I like Iida, Bakugo, Tokoyami, Kirishima and Tsu the most of Class 1-A probably. Then Deku, Todoroki, Uraraka, Momo and Jirou are probably my next five favorites (no order really there) to round out my top ten favorite class 1-A students. You'll come to learn more about these characters during this arc and the next couple quite a bit and I look forward to it. Class 1-B is another story and has some great characters and some non-hero course characters that will be shown off in this arc are great too, but I won't mention any names there yet. I'll hold off on pros and villain favorites for the same reason. Anyway, great reaction as always and get hyped for the tournament arc!
@Zeno I agree with you about the overall plot of the series which came after hunter x hunter but I think naruto did a far better job at building this arc. You felt always a sense of danger because each stage was a matter of life and death ( btw Orochimaru was fucking scary) and let's not forget the huge cast of unique characters which were introduced. Too bad they ended up being wasted potential in shippuuden. Hunter x hunter is a great story overall but I wouldn't consider the tournament arc the best one. Yuyu hakusho has the greatest tournament arc.
What the dude with purple balls in his head did is a method people do to get rid of the nerves before an important event. Basically you draw the kanji for "Human" in your palm 3 times and then pretend to swallow it.
Todoroki did not take entrance exams. He was recommended specially. But on a lighter note Rama’s enthusiasm with Todoroki just makes my heart soar with happiness. Also Nahid just saw Todoroki smartly defend and attack in one move but he is only powerful quirk? He noticed Bakugou was more than just anger when watching Bakugou fight in season 1. Was the first person to calmly assess the villain situation and thought about someone jamming communications. And easily assessed the situation and went to save All Might with limited info. I think it is the classic our guys are better than the op antagonist we must beat syndrome. Though Midoriya is a sweet character to love. He is one of the smartest in his grade. But there are ways to counter him.
Minetas honestly not that bad..idk where u got this info but theres not enough to happen for him to actually be bad...hes a pervert or hes hilarious!..thats it.
@@dtmt502 eh what differentiates being creepy is their social skills a guy whose not perverted at all can be hella creepy and the biggest perv can be the popular kid most people like
All of the students are the same age:15. They are all first years in high school. Mineta is a first year. Momo is a first year. They're all first years.

So glad you guys are doing My Hero Acadamia! I binged the whole thing recently and love it. Personally I prefer sub because of the authenticity and funnier/more savage quotes but hey, to each his own!
" it think the red one's Kaminari" oh no...noo ;-; Kaminari's last name means literally lightning and his first name (Denki) means electricity the red one is Kirishima :'3
i like bakugou's quotes better in subs :( Tbh as a non english speaker i find the english dub truly amazing but those smalllll details... cant wait to see your next reactions
Normies: Is this Naruto or HunterxHunter? Actually, it's Star Wars. Basically every school and location is a reference. Deku and Bakugo went to Alderaan middle school, he trained at Dagoba Beach and so on.
A little bit surprised that none of y'all mentioned the difference between the first time Izuku had to face the faux villains and here since they show you it straight out. Back then he was terrified, trembling, and you can see it on his face. Here he's still trembling a little bit, but he's smiling... determined... It's just a nice little thing.
@@ximienlundquist8487 Well, I also like to think that many people have that kind of side to them somewhere even if they don't always admit to or accept it
The purple-haired guy's line was mistranslated. They don't necessarily have to transfer people out to make room for General Studies people to make it in, but poor performance can get you bumped down. "There's going to be third years in this?" Nah, the sports festival is separated by year. "I'll make you fight these guys." Or he could just control the villains. "We still haven't seen the hot yet." Todoroki used it once, to melt the ice he made during the battle trial. "You have to have a Quirk to get into this school." Izuku specifically says in the first episode that UA got rid of that rule, but no Quirkless students have gotten into the hero course as of yet.
Class A & Class B are the only two classes training to be heroes, all the other classes are like regular school classes, and the purple haired guy didn't get into the hero course so he's in one of the normal classes.
If you guys like Hatsune the gadget girl, I strongly recommend the webcomic Girl Genius. Fully half of the heroes and villains in that story are like her, as it takes place in a Victorian-era Europe that has been overrun with mad scientists.
seeing this and being where i am in the manga *spoiler* ....-ish? the comparison of shinso being an early Todoroki hit me too hard this ep, i could not stop laughing m8

else that would basically mean that Endeavor stopped training his son at age 5 .... that doesn't really fit what we know of the family history.
That said. ... while I don't think Shoto is stupid, I actually think his strength mostly lies in his quirk. he has a very powerful and very versatile quirk. Both Deku and Bakugou I think are smarter, but Shoto is smart too. I also don't think Bakugo is leaving shoto in the dust....
fabliha khan thats cool and all but bakugo and midoriya still stomp todoroki, strongest quirk or not, those 2 can get inclose and its over cause todoroki is trash at close combat, theyre both fast enough and their mobility is up there &”stun grenade is just a defensive move “ the move is enough to get the drop on someone, he aint doing shit with ice if he cant see & also the howitzer impact that u claim to say he barely hit him with, well obviously he aint plan to obliterate the guy, hence why he hit his ice in that fight. What your not gonna do is try to downplay the other 2 just to upplay yours. He can be cool & all but he hasn’t done anything amazing
I agree, I enjoy this show so much because it does get right to the point. There's hardly any filler :)
03:43 "more of a relaxed season"...HELL NO
Byte right? I went “Ha a ‘relaxed’ season of MHA. As if”
That’s the second part of season 3 lol
the seasons just get more extreme :') the only one that drops is second half of season 3 (bc the first half was so intense and the second was chill), but there were still epic moments at the end of season 3
@@esguy502 the middle part* the ending part is not relaxing
Papa Todoroki is watching....
"Cute" isn't quite the word to describe Todoroki's dad being there 😅
No Spoilers I swear
That's sort of a spoiler. They could like him from the beginning but you're saying how they should feel about him.
They keep saying they don't wanna be spoiled.
@@giantWario don't think I did, more of hint really lol 😅
@@-Gilver They considered people telling them Mineta was awful a spoiler for future event. This is litterally the same thing you're doing, except for Todoroki's dad instead of Mineta. In fact its worse because you're telling them how to feel about a character before they even meet that character.
Lol
Purple hair is from general studies
"DBZ has the best tournament RN"
Yeah... no.
It really doesn't.
From all the trounaments that they mentioned (Naruto, My Hero, HxH, DBS), DBS is the worst. The developing of the battles was awful. Just some fights were good like Goku vs Jiren for example.
DBS anime version of the tournament was FAR superior then the Manga version. the manga version has basically everything on speed, with Kefla basically taking everyone out not in universe 6,7, and 11, Krillin and Tien taken out off panel in the literal beginning of the tournament, and yeah Roshi fight Jiren for a bit which was the dumbest part. While the anime really dragged things out in the tournament we at least got an actual tournament, in the Manga the author basically has the whole thing on the fast forward button. About the only good thing in the Manga was that it actually gave Jiren more of a character and personality, but that’s about it.
@@ulic96 That's because DB has never been good on storytelling that develops it's characters in a meaningful way that the viewer can relate to.
I don't watch too many shonen to know it for sure but Dragon Ball had some top tier tournaments, specially the 22nd one.
The absolute best thing about this series of reaction vids is that you guys DON'T know what's coming and hearing your theory crafting about the direction you feel the show is going. Great groupthink, gang. Keep 'em coming.
Todoroki is pretty cool and very popular with fans, but personally I like Iida, Bakugo, Tokoyami, Kirishima and Tsu the most of Class 1-A probably. Then Deku, Todoroki, Uraraka, Momo and Jirou are probably my next five favorites (no order really there) to round out my top ten favorite class 1-A students. You'll come to learn more about these characters during this arc and the next couple quite a bit and I look forward to it.
Class 1-B is another story and has some great characters and some non-hero course characters that will be shown off in this arc are great too, but I won't mention any names there yet. I'll hold off on pros and villain favorites for the same reason.
Anyway, great reaction as always and get hyped for the tournament arc!
I kinda agree w/ ur favs, again this is an opinion of mine
I didn't really liked this op when I first watched it but it's starting to grow on me.
It's my favorite out of all of them.
The season 2 opening 2 is the greatest of all. Getting me hyped like fuck
I think it might be my fave honestly defo fave song
Oh hey, it’s you
Peace Sign took a looooong time to grow on me.
It's nice seeing how into it all of you were. Glad you all seem hyped with this show :D
Nahid is right, if the author is inspired by Naruto it's inspired by HxH by default.
Zeno it’s like it gets worse and worse lol
@Zeno I agree with you about the overall plot of the series which came after hunter x hunter but I think naruto did a far better job at building this arc. You felt always a sense of danger because each stage was a matter of life and death ( btw Orochimaru was fucking scary) and let's not forget the huge cast of unique characters which were introduced. Too bad they ended up being wasted potential in shippuuden. Hunter x hunter is a great story overall but I wouldn't consider the tournament arc the best one. Yuyu hakusho has the greatest tournament arc.
Props to Micky for the breakdown of conditions to use the quirk.
What the dude with purple balls in his head did is a method people do to get rid of the nerves before an important event. Basically you draw the kanji for "Human" in your palm 3 times and then pretend to swallow it.
Todoroki did not take entrance exams. He was recommended specially. But on a lighter note Rama’s enthusiasm with Todoroki just makes my heart soar with happiness.
Also Nahid just saw Todoroki smartly defend and attack in one move but he is only powerful quirk? He noticed Bakugou was more than just anger when watching Bakugou fight in season 1. Was the first person to calmly assess the villain situation and thought about someone jamming communications. And easily assessed the situation and went to save All Might with limited info. I think it is the classic our guys are better than the op antagonist we must beat syndrome. Though Midoriya is a sweet character to love.
He is one of the smartest in his grade. But there are ways to counter him.
Minetas honestly not that bad..idk where u got this info but theres not enough to happen for him to actually be bad...hes a pervert or hes hilarious!..thats it.
Mineta is inspired by Trump
he's probably the most accurate interpretation of a teenager in most of these situations.
+Havoc13 most teens aren't creepy especially the high achieving teens
@@dtmt502 eh what differentiates being creepy is their social skills a guy whose not perverted at all can be hella creepy and the biggest perv can be the popular kid most people like
I knew a couple of dudes as thirsty as him in high school.
Man, everything they said about Shinso was great. I think they're going to really enjoy this tournament arc
“I think this is gonna be a more relaxed season” muahahahahaha
"...and Ironwood."
Me: "RWBY?!"
3:42 "Mickey: This one is more relaxed" Bro, let that beat drop lol.
3:45
I accidentally droped my food as he said that. Now I've got STAIN on my pants.
😂😂😂
How can Rana get more beautiful on every reaction? I'm so glad you guys are watching MHA, can't wait for those jaw dropping episodes that are coming!
All of the students are the same age:15. They are all first years in high school. Mineta is a first year. Momo is a first year. They're all first years.
Chris is literally a VISIONARY! The moment (17:55) Todoroki mentioned his dad, he noticed Todoroki's fire hasn't been shown yet! 😅💯
I have a strong feeling you guys will never hate Mineta. Welcome to the club! ;D
Todoroki just has the most busted quirk there other than Deku
16:37 ‘He’s controlling them I think’. I’m watching all seasons for the third time right now and I just figured this out💀
They want to see Best Jeanist. *Happy squeal* XD
Damn guys I started watching this series from ep 1 with you guys today, and honestly I like meneta now man idk I think it was the subs lmao, I’m liking this man good vid guys
I hope nothing you see going forward Stains your perception of Heroes!
Amal M
>_> hmmmmm....
You cheeky bastard
Beautiful
Amal M It would be a shame if they had to Overhaul everything they know about them in general
@@tarantinoburrows1406 Stop everybody be Gentle with them. Give them a Brava for even attempting to react to this show
This arc is what made me love Bakugo ❤
yesss
We all can't wait for THAT episode :D
14:39 I literally spat out my drink at how Chris looked directly into the camera, omfg
So glad you guys are doing My Hero Acadamia! I binged the whole thing recently and love it. Personally I prefer sub because of the authenticity and funnier/more savage quotes but hey, to each his own!
" it think the red one's Kaminari" oh no...noo ;-;
Kaminari's last name means literally lightning and his first name (Denki) means electricity
the red one is Kirishima :'3
"they need money to keep it going" ... bones is one of the biggest studios with KyoAni. they have enough money xD
no such thing as enough money my boi.
1:30 sports anime tournament arcs > battle shonen tournament arcs.
“This is gonna be a little more of a relaxed season because I think it’s mostly the tournament arc”
Never underestimate a tournament arc.
The best tournament arc ever is the dark tournament in Yu Yu Hakusho
The pacing in this show is amazing. Always straight to the point, and practically no ass pulls
pacing sucks after 2x17 they dragged the sh!t out of it
You’re right except for the ending of Overhaul arc
It’s far better then Naruto’s pacing.
Brandon Lyon everything is better than naruto’s pacing
Little did we know she's called the R rated hero because RIP😅
i like bakugou's quotes better in subs :( Tbh as a non english speaker i find the english dub truly amazing but those smalllll details...
cant wait to see your next reactions
Tahjay Bernard thank you krkrk i guess english classes are helpful !
Ohhh Todoroki
Normies: Is this Naruto or HunterxHunter?
Actually, it's Star Wars. Basically every school and location is a reference.
Deku and Bakugo went to Alderaan middle school, he trained at Dagoba Beach and so on.
A little bit surprised that none of y'all mentioned the difference between the first time Izuku had to face the faux villains and here since they show you it straight out. Back then he was terrified, trembling, and you can see it on his face. Here he's still trembling a little bit, but he's smiling... determined... It's just a nice little thing.
10:43 - Watch "School Cop" - gives an idea about school life in Japan. TBH it's kinda extreme... but has anime vibes occasionally.
I think Mineta is highly underrated, especially when his antics are purely comedic and not meant to be taken as seriously as some people do
Only huge perverts think Mineta is underrated.
@@ximienlundquist8487 Well, I also like to think that many people have that kind of side to them somewhere even if they don't always admit to or accept it
3:18 For Suraj and Nahid, Kaminari is the yellow electric kid. The red one is Kirishima
Suraj's reaction to Mickey's opening quote killed me lmfao
The latest few chapters of the manga right now are the saddest and most emotional to think that MHA might have 2 more seasons after the fifth one
im loving this for real and season 2 has the best opening
Didn't know hating Mineta was a thing...he's aight
todoroki is the MVP if this season :V
The purple-haired guy's line was mistranslated. They don't necessarily have to transfer people out to make room for General Studies people to make it in, but poor performance can get you bumped down.
"There's going to be third years in this?" Nah, the sports festival is separated by year.
"I'll make you fight these guys." Or he could just control the villains.
"We still haven't seen the hot yet." Todoroki used it once, to melt the ice he made during the battle trial.
"You have to have a Quirk to get into this school." Izuku specifically says in the first episode that UA got rid of that rule, but no Quirkless students have gotten into the hero course as of yet.
this season just grows more and more
I just wanna say... Bakugo is the best character
Class A & Class B are the only two classes training to be heroes, all the other classes are like regular school classes, and the purple haired guy didn't get into the hero course so he's in one of the normal classes.
I just noticed the poster of Mt Lady on Mineta's wall. That same poster is on the back of volume 1 of the manga
Ohh fuck! I've been waiting for you guys to see this part! 😁😁
If you guys like Hatsune the gadget girl, I strongly recommend the webcomic Girl Genius. Fully half of the heroes and villains in that story are like her, as it takes place in a Victorian-era Europe that has been overrun with mad scientists.
Welcome to one of the best tournament arcs in anime
"The best tournament (so far) is DBS)." Oh yes, so far. You haven't seen this one yet! This one gets you emotionally invested. ;)
You guys caught onto purple-haired guy's powers quick. The first time I watched this was with a reactor, so I definitely missed that detail lol
Guys, is a shounen, there has to be a tournament arc in a shounen, otherwise, they wouldn't be a shounen xD
6:09
*MY INSOMNIAC BOI*
seeing this and being where i am in the manga
*spoiler* ....-ish?
the comparison of shinso being an early Todoroki hit me too hard this ep, i could not stop laughing m8
I really want that walking dead reaction tho
SO YALL EXPECT ME TO WAIT 2 MONTHS FOR "THAT" EPISODE? SMH
22:00 Hey mah boy Mick Snow. Can you release this same statement for the Naruto viewers? It’s desperately needed there. Please and thank you 🙏
