MHA 8x3

Enjoy! Next ep next week!

Comments

That "GET REKT" sounded like it hurt 🤕

HBelmont 24

*8x4

HBelmont 24

That's not true in the slightest considered he's taken sooo many more quirks since their fight back in the day AND he's in peak condition. Being duplicated did weaken them because of their vestiges but that barely does a dent in his power, they were equal back in the day but even injured all might barely put a scratch if not for the "quirks" of other people and not his own. AFO going so ham in the fight just goes to show how strong all might was to best him in the day but now with the help of Endeavor and dozens of other well qualified heroes, it took basically 4 nukes to actually kill him? He was a MAJOR problem, even more so than shiggy imo

Scar

Important reminder..even though all for one is still ridiculously strong, he's much weaker than when he fought all might back in the day... Mainly because he's using a duplicate quirk, he passed on the original quirk to shiggy and the duplicate quirks are not as a strong as the original.

Kika gama

Clifford out performed himself yet again in the 8x4 dub today. Legendary va

Kacchan BakuGOAT

Might be my favorite episode of MHA ever (Definitely top 3). It had everything I want in terms of animation, emotion, and character development. Bakugo smiling after being acknowledged by All Might and calling himself Kacchan was absolutely perfect.

Charles Arias

I loved and cried so much even watching a second time omg! Let alone bakugo didn't say his hero name, find it interesting he used the nickname deku gave him honestly kinda fits since deku kept his

Babybear47

All mights never done his light shines for everyone hints his look into the future they try and show the first few episodes I think

Babybear47

This!

Kacchan BakuGOAT

Only part from the sub I liked more was his wild laughing while yelling "Too fast!"

Grant

It should have been his hero name and I will die on this hill.

Ferret

Here's a fun fact about Bakugo and All For One similarities: In the Myers Brigg 16 personalities systems and enneagram (might want to look it up if you don't know what I'm talking about) Bakugo and All For One share the exact same MBTI type and enneagram = ENTJ 8w7.

Eiríkur Eiríksson

😐😐😐 bro has got to be ragebaiting

JTBloodstone

At this point it would be an understatement to say that Bakugo never gives up. Also big shoutout to Edgeshot. Dude underwent turning into a worm so a kid could survive.

Natsuo Todoroki

Bakugo stressed out young all for one so much his hairline receded@22:30

Knov or Morel

CSM SPOILERS: I rewatched the Chainsaw Man: Reze Arc movie again last night, and even in Bakugo's current state, I still doubt he could beat Reze. She's just CRACKED. 💣 💥

HBelmont 24

Right like bro did that BECAUSE ofa was too strong a will for himself idk why he thinks he could beat shiggy who he specfically made to be stronger than him. See he shouldve read less comics and played more league with shiggy

Indifferent Denji

Well the difference is touya didnt know he was grown up hes was in a coma, Afo is consciously aware what age he is. Touya was still in his head 13 but in reality he was 16, notice how after a while his internal voice was the same as his normal one?

Indifferent Denji

This joined One for All as the highest rated episode of MHA ever and I think it's completely deserving of that title

Andrew Kidd

'Throughout heaven and earth, I alone am the explosive one.'

Kyle MacDonald

One of the best episodes of mha ever. Hands down, I can’t think of a better one.

no u uwu

In a sense, Bakugo has a connection to One For All, but that's only just that. His quirk is not empowered by One For All at all. The whole point is that Bakugo got this strong on his own

Eiríkur Eiríksson

I love the end more than anything tbh cause Bakugo is calling himself Kacchan which is the nickname Izuku gave him

Sickness

Not trying to come off as rude when saying that but its the near death quirk awakening that is making him so great. It would be kind of a cop out and pointless to bring up the movie as a way to get Bakugo to have a power up. The movie wasn't in the manga. It wouldn't make any sense to reference the movie in the manga because it didn't happen in the manga to begin with.

Sickness

Dude I get your hyped in this reaction but you need to lay down the one for all in Bakugo theory. It has nothing to do with this lol. It was a movie that the creator had because it was his original ending for the series. They made Bakugo forget that he got one for all at the end of that movie because they weren't gonna bring it back up in the series itself.

Sickness

This season so far has been straight peak, but this episode is probably the single best episode of any anime I have ever seen. That goes for both sub and dub. And, honestly, the dub actors KILLED IT this episode, especially Kacchan and Young All for One. One minor thing I wish was different: I do still wish we had gotten to hear Old All for One's VA here, though, even if it was just his internal monologue. I would've loved to hear him voicing YAfO's thoughts as this episode played out. We got that with Toya Todoroki when he woke up in that "day care" in the flashback a few seasons ago, so I wish they would've done that here, too.

Gestrid

I see you've changed your name back, and you've changed your profile pic again. :)

Gestrid

Deku probably can't even hear Kacchan. Honestly, he's probably focusing 100% on Shigaraki, based on that short scene with Deku considering his options. He knows he can trust Kacchan to win to save people.

Gestrid

You are correct.

Gestrid

Hoooooly SHIT Bakugos VA was absolutely phenomenal! (As expected, but damn...i had to rewatch immediately. Shit gave me chills!)

Jinchuriki87

Bakugo and All Might are nice this episode, but I really like the scene with Edgeshot. You can hear in his voice that Bakugo is 100% sincere and genuine in thanking Edgeshot for saving his life.

HBelmont 24

He was reborn, like a phoenix 🐦‍🔥 💥

HBelmont 24

"I understand, now"

HBelmont 24

In this episode? Absolutely. OFA didn't save his life, nor did him make him stronger in this fight.

HBelmont 24

I feel like saying bakugo has ofa is a discredit to him and his skill he does this with one quirk

Rahul Korrapati

Like always, they embody both sides of All Might: fighting to save people, and fighting to win. 😁

HBelmont 24

And they're supposed to have that context?

HBelmont 24

The similarity I actually saw from that scene was the Full Gauntlet Melissa gave to Deku in the first movie. It's even on the same arm. I mean, both are pieces of Melissa's technology.

HBelmont 24

Lowkey got annoyed how that news station was like "who cares whats going on in some far away country." Like this is a world changing event that can destroy all of Japan you should really be reporting on this. More importantly THIS IS THE GOAT ALL MIGHT CARE ABOUT HIM A LITTLE

Erin Ryan

All Might giving bakugou the last of his armor like he gave one for all to Deku

Erin Ryan

I love how dekus smile is wholesome for everyone feel safe and bakugous is just feral making all the villans feel fear

Erin Ryan

It's not just the animation that was on point this episode. The music was also GORGEOUS! The slow methodical build-up as we saw everyone around the world watching this conflict (those beautiful strings honestly reminded me of Attack on Titan), only for it to EXPLODE as Deku and Bakugo worked to save All Might sounded PHENOMENAL. And the "GO BEYOND" scene in the second half and Bakugo's Quirk evolving both looks and sounds incredible. Just . . . hats off to both the Bones animators and Yuki Hayashi for DELIVERING on adapting this episode. 🤩

HBelmont 24

Forreal. "Majestic" is definitely the right word; the longer hair DEFINITELY did this man good. Also, to answer Kenny's question as to how Shigiraki can see All Might's vestige: he has the All For One Quirk, too, which connects him to One for All.

HBelmont 24

It's Great Explosion Murder God Dynamight and it's a good pun and pays homage to all might. It might sound awkward in English but it rolls of the tongue better in japanese

Limini

Shigraraki looking majestic for no reason. That flowing hair and lighting on him is just gorgeous. I feel like hes finally free from All of One now and he looks so much healthier and happier

Erin Ryan

Not knowing when the episodes frop is a blessing and a curse

Limini

Correct me if I'm wrong but we still haven't had a decku moment of him "I am here " like almight told him to do. I say this at the beginning of your reaction because I haven't seen this yet

the raven

Nah he has a little bit of it his eyes from last season and art stuff from this ep, I think he has a SMIDGE of it at the very least

Letts React

It's a reminder that he's still just a kid. 🥹

HBelmont 24

"CAUSE MY NAME IS KACCHAN BAKUGO!!" That might be one of the best episode endings of any anime, and I would L.O.V.E. if Bakugo indeed changed his Hero name to this. Confession time: I've always disliked Great Explosion Murder God Dynamight. They bring Best Jeanist back in season six and have Bakugo finally express his wish as a Hero to the one person he wanted to share it with, and they make it a joke?? Are you kidding me? But Kacchan? That would be perfect in SO many ways; the ULTIMATE act of growth and redemption for Bakugo's character.

HBelmont 24

Nah, this still takes it. Not only is Bakugo's reintroduction literally perfect, but there's some moments of iffy animation next episode. Not here, tho. This is one of the best looking episodes of the show by FAR. The animation's up there with Shoto Todoroki: Origin, Infinite 100%, and His Start, imo.

HBelmont 24

Yeah, that's a GREAT touch. Last episode has some British folks, as well. (Though, forreal. WHY does the Italian dogman sound so nice??)

HBelmont 24

All for One: grooms shigraraki to have a strong enough will to take OFA. Also All for One: is shocked shigarakis will his strong enough to overtake his own. For a guy who considers all variables he sure is stupid

Erin Ryan

I feel bad for him though cause he’s said so many times that he enjoyed last season being able to talk softer and not kill his voice yelling haha

Tyler

That was my favorite episode as well until this

Tyler

I think he meant more how this is just a one sided beatdown, AFO didn’t have these moments of fear and lashing out in anger the same way when he fought All Might

Tyler

I wish we had gotten to see Izukus reaction to Bakugo calling himself Kacchan for the first time

Tyler

IMO… it’s the best episode of My Hero Academia period. And then episode 4 happens

Tyler Owens

Kenny i love the bakugo hype but all might literary punched of afo’s head and left him on deaths door to the point where he could not live without tubes and machines(his own words) this is the reason he sought out shigaraki and the whole story kinds starts. But yes bakugo is whooping his butt no doubt😂one of my fave mha episodes of all time!!!

Reaper88

I just wanna say bakugou DOES NOT HAVE OFA. I feel like that would take away from all of the effort he put into his own quirk to make it this powerful

Erin Ryan

I love how the random people voices are in different accents. Idk if they did that in sub I couldn't tell

Erin Ryan

My favorite episode has been 3x23, Deku vs. Kacchan part 2, without changing this whole time, but this one dethroned it immediately. It’s perfect! There were no flaws in it at all! 😭 The voice acting! (Clifford Chapin killed it!) The gorgeous animation! The call backs and the full circle moments! I’m a puddle 😭😭 I love that Bakugo is the one who saves All Might and at the moment is keeping AFO on the ropes. It’s the perfect character arc for him. 🥹 I remember when I learned that the ending of the second movie was originally supposed to be the ending of the manga and I thought that Horikoshi would never be able to top it, but here we are! He proved me wrong again, because I am loving how this story is wrapping up so far. Also, I love seeing how excited you both are each week for these episodes! Can’t wait for the next one! 🥹 (and I am dying at you asking the worm question 🤣 I too love worm Edgeshot, the worm the world needed. ❤️🪱)

Kiribukai

Katsuki really had his "throughout heaven and earth, i alone am the explosive one" moment

Kacchan BakuGOAT

I really see bakugos "death" as a metaphor for the old bakugo dying and the new better and changed bakugo being born.

Kacchan BakuGOAT

God Cliffford Chapin did soo good in this episode. As usual. He's a goated VA. His take on the crazy laugh was great.

Kacchan BakuGOAT

I appreciate that you took the time to answer more questions than usual for this episode. With everything going on in this season and the amount of questions asked, I doubt the usual three question limit is gonna cut it this season. 😅

HBelmont 24

Ryan Negron is the GOAT of this season

HBelmont 24

Huge props to Young AFO’s VA for voicing an INCREDIBLE, LEGITIMATE sounding crash out

David Garcia

Also, Bakugo doing the midair Gojo float was an anime only scene, which is likely studio Bones paying homage to studio Mappa since they animated Todo’s black flash to look like All Might in season 2. This episode was sick

David Garcia

REVELRY IN THE DARK

HBelmont 24

Fun fact, that 4 panel of shiggy AFO Deku and Bakugo was drawn nearly 3 years after the 3 panel of Yuji Todo and Mahito. Gege and Horikoshi are good friends IRL, so it’s very likely that Horikoshi was tipping hit hat to Gege when he drew that 😊.

David Garcia

I'm in the camp where i find most the time the dubbed never lives up to the sub but this definitely did

Justin m

You might've forgot but darkshadow was one of the few characters who actually made afo panic back in season 7. Our bird boy really is the most underrated character.

Indifferent Denji

This show is just NOT the same without Clifford Chapin's Bakugo, and now that he's back, it's like he never left. 😁💥 This is not only one of the best episodes of My Hero Academia, but also one of the most satisfying.

HBelmont 24

And he is! My group of friends and me were like wait-

Kacchan BakuGOAT

Bakugo's genuine smile of joy started the waterworks for me. Every time Bakugo smiled it was in a "I'm gonna destroy you" type of way. Receiving a gift passed down from All Might, his biggest idol, brought out a full, genuine, heartfelt smile.

Grant

He has rewound it’s just less noticeable when he’s this young already. Don’t just take AFO’s words as fact he’s full of shit

Mortis

KACCHAN BAKUGO YESSIRRRRR

Butthead faxe

I said this at the start, and I'll say it again: this season's just gonna be 9/10 or 10/10 episodes, isn't it? 🤣

HBelmont 24

I feel like Marti, the Italian guy with the dog Quirk at the beginning, is gonna be some people's "hear me out" character. 🤣

HBelmont 24

It's not that Bakugo is out powering afo, it's that afo is ignoring him 😭. Bakugo is very annoying, but not dangerous, like dark shadow would be, so afo just decided to not bother. Notice he hasn't rewound from those two attacks? They aren't a threat, but they are a time waster.

Himiko Toga

Tigerclaw

This episode got a 9.8 on IMDB. Actually so far, all episodes of this season have a rating of 9.2 or higher.

Kacchan BakuGOAT

LETS GOOOO I envy the will power you two have waiting not only for the dub to drop but then extra days on top of that I dont know how you do it, cant wait for next week!

Tyler

BAKUGOATTTT

Mcdiddys

It was in fact mentioned and noticed 🤣

David Garcia

Before I watch this, I’m wondering if they picked up on the fact that Bakugo was excluded from the intro for the first 2 episodes 🧨

David Garcia

Thanks a million, you guys! 😁

HBelmont 24

ITS TIMEEEEE HELL YEAH Kenny the GOAT

Renn.88

YESSSSSS
