MHA 5x16

Enjoy! next ep Saturday!

Comments

I can understand why you might feel that way, but I would recommend going back and rewatching more closely. Uraraka herself admits in the sports festival that she was relying on Deku too much and challenged him the same way Iida did. Uraraka does have a crush on Deku, they are friends, and he’s the main character so naturally a lot of the other characters develop around him including Shoto, Bakugo, and Tenya. Uraraka’s whole backstory is that she’s concerned about who protects the Heroes when they get hurt and need saving. Deku like All Might throws himself into danger without any regard for his own safety, which ties into Uraraka’s whole backstory. She also has her own relationship with Toga and others that’s separate to Deku and her work study and internships were her own choices that were also separate to Deku In short her story and character doesn’t revolve around Deku anymore than anyone else. You could replace Deku with a woman or another character who risks their life in the same way and her story wouldn’t change, because she’s the one who protects and stands up for the heroes

Anime canon not filler. This episode directly ties into the movie which is canon to the manga and the episode was given the ok by Horikoshi. Filler is material written by the studio without any input from the author to buy time in order for the manga to get ahead

I just refuse to talk with a child who just wants to argue for attention, hope this helps! Womp womp

Scar

'all that'.. yikes.. doesn't know what a fact is and can't be bothered to read a single paragraph.. i'm starting to understand u more :)

awildjord

I ain’t reading all that happy for you though or sorry that happened

Scar

ur like the only person i replied to, and please learn what a fact is :) anyway, if you'd just said something like "i don't like this episode tbh" or whatever then who cares i guess but going out of ur way to say u won't watch the reaction bc u don't like it just came across as very unnecessarily rude - and maybe i wouldn't have been annoyed by it if it were the only comment like that but the sheer amount of people who felt the need to be so negative instead of just.. not? was incredibly irritating (and i mean on all the videos to do with filler episodes)

awildjord

You replying to everyone giving their honest opinion is annoying and that’s not an opinion it’s a fact, hope this helps!

Scar

valid opinion or not, doesn't make u less annoying <3 hope this helps

awildjord

It's interesting, bc Uraraka making the plane weightless would not slow it down, so they had to destroy the engine to make sure it didn't fall when it was made weightless. Her powers are super interesting and I feel like the anime could do a lot more with it. Weightless things still have mass, so they're not that much easier to get moving, but once they are moving they'll keep moving. She could do some insane things with the power, it's honestly surprising they don't. She can take out any villain that doesn't have the ability to fly or teleport with just a touch. Also - She desperately needs to get some of those tungsten chess pieces Nighteye had, like damn any super heavy super dense projectile would be great in her hands. It'd still have mass, so it's not like she can accelerate it to light speed or anything, but it's still useful, bc the only thing reducing speed would be air resistance, she can focus every Newton of force into forward motion. She could throw things better than most people. Honestly a bow or a crossbow could be insane for her, like make the arrow weightless and your range is essentially infinite, only limited by the curvature of the Earth.

David Bodor

Yeah she's a real mixed opportunity. Honestly it's a bit of a shame that of the highest rank heroes in 1A, there's not really any women in it. Like, the top 3 are Deku,Bakugo,Todoroki, then maybe you can count Tokoyami and then further below you have Chargebolt, Red Riot, but none of the female heroes even come close up. Uraraka's power breaks one of the fundamental forces of physics, she could do SO much cooler stuff than just drop rocks. The Nomu from season 1 could've been done in by Uraraka just touching it at any point. She basically has Shigaraki level on-touch killing power just with extra steps. It's honestly a shame she never gets to use that move on a villain.

David Bodor

Gotta say, struggled to find questions to ask for this episode since it was a filler and so straight-cut 😆 I think I watched it twice

Day

The episodes I wonder about is them doing the rescue in the mall with the manican... I think it builds character with everyone but I think it's videos before the second movie... Idk either way good rescue episodes.

Babybear47

Yeah because the swimming episode was awesome and this one's boring ughhh 🤣 😭

gamerx

To further clarify, Uraraka seems to exist solely to support deku and further his development rather than have any of her own development that doesn’t revolve around him. It’s also why I’ve never cared for their relationship either (and before anyone comes for me, no I don’t ship bakudeku either). So I’m just curious if you guys have your own thoughts on her

Ellie

I’m very curious about how you guys feel about the way Uraraka is written. I think one of the biggest weaknesses of my hero academia is the way their female characters are written (a common theme in all of shonen tbh). Practically everything about Uraraka and nearly every moment of development she ever has revolves around Deku and is done in response to him or because of him. She hardly ever has her own moments and I think it’s why I’ve never really cared about her that much. I just would love to know if you guys agree or if you feel different

Ellie

Also Kenny you're right, that guy in the post-credits is from the third movie. This is the tie-in for that movie.

Mekar

I actually love the "woah woah it's alright, everything will be alright, everybody now we're here" opening part of the song. It gets me hyped. Everything else about the song is just awful though. This is a very Man with a Mission song. So many of their songs sound like this, despite that they occasionally do great like Demon Slayer s3. I really hope that MHA doesn't end up using their song "My Hero" which I am confident they only released because they wanted it to be in MHA. It's not a bad song either, just very generic. The Nickelback comparison definitely works.

Mekar

It's ok Kenny people just want their opinions validated

Gerardo Mendez

That's the right call. You guys at least watched that episode eventually, right?

H-Bomb 24

I see

H-Bomb 24

This episode is for the 3rd movie

mastertater

Hi 👋 it's me. The aforementioned person upset we skipped the swimming episode. Allow me to personally thank you for doing one of my other favorite episodes of the show. I love seeing the other characters succeed and just become characters we care about. Now if any of them are injured or in danger we are more invested in their stories/survival than if the filler never happened.

Æther Paradox

Love this episode idc if it’s filler cuz Uraraka was badass

Bryan

Orh please not yall upset for this reaction it's fine just don't watch like me lol What I want tho is the ovas 🥸

Omayma

To be honest people who care/want them to skip ONE episode of filler is just a bad take, its ONE episode, suck it up buttercup. Imagine them watching Naruto or One Piece with all THAT filler. Just let them enjoy the show as is its not going to kill you.

DickinaBox

No, my opinion is just as valid as anyone else’s. Hope this helps❤️

Scar

honestly some of y'all are so goddamn annoying.. they skip filler and u get mad, they don't skip filler and u get mad

awildjord

should've skipped commenting as well

awildjord

I didn't realize this episode was so hated. It seems to be the MHA equivalent of "The Great Divide" from ATLA or "Once Upon a Swap" from The Owl House. I personally think it's fine even if I agree it's not the best episode by a wide margin. I definitely don't understand how people could get so upset over a reactor watching it instead of skipping though. Let them experience the show for themselves and make their own opinion on it.

Macarthius

Sorry if I came off rude or ungrateful btw.

Markub El Jaden

I think this is the last filler in MHA, so you probably wouldn't have to worry about this problem again (and I personally didn't mind the swimming ep since its placement didn't interrupt the flow of any storyline.)

Markub El Jaden

We tried to skip the swimming episode and people were upset, I think our best bet is just to watch every episode

Letts React

The one reaction I'll skip because of how awful this episode was

Scar

Ngl kinda disappointed that this filler got a reaction, people were swearing up and down that it's an "important" prologue for the movie when its really not lol (they just showed a movie-exclusive character for like 2 seconds), especially since now 5x17 & 5x18 would be watched one week apart thanks for this ep taking a slot.

Markub El Jaden

Yes I agree. However he can still go into muscle form. It just hurts him almost immediately after. Like starting a car that's out of gas. It tried to ignite the few fumes that are there. But it isn't potent enough to explode to life. He is surely still connected to it, as he could feel OFA working in Deku in the hospital. If we can be okay with Bakugo getting and losing OFA in 3 minutes, we can accept that Small Might may desire some of his power back and drugs might be able to do it. 🤷🏾

Æther Paradox

I love this episode and the pool episode. Shows growth for the other characters. Not just the main 3

Æther Paradox

And, yeah, that was the intro to World Heroes' Mission, the third MHA movie. (I don't know if anyone mentioned that already but I just thought I'd say something.)

Jordan Albert

This episode gives off a little too much filler for my tastes, lol. Weather it's actual filler or not i wish they'd included a little more substance.

Joe Dunams

Yeah, the episode itself is nice I imagine it is mostly just the timing that offends people since it's smack in the middle of the Endeavor training arc.

David L

No, he's canon. The events of the first episode he appeared in were mentioned by Froppy in the manga. It's just that the anime decided to expand on that and made it into a whole episode.

Gestrid

I think Ryukyu got so lucky in a world where MF’s get stuck looking like Dogs cats or other animals she gets the ability to transform instead of just being stuck in that form 😂

Allan romero

I would be curious if trigger would have certain limits on what it could enhance similar to monoma being unable to copy ANY quirk Since all might only had the super strength, it might have worked on him before...but if OFA has left him completely, there's no quirk to even enhance.

Jinchuriki87

That's rough buddy

Jinchuriki87

This episode is a lot of peoples' least favorites ngl. For what it's worth, I think the episode itself is super fun lol

Noboi

Dangit

H-Bomb 24

I meant to ask this question for this episode from the moment you started MHA. But I forgot. So we can discuss it here as a community 😁 With a drug like trigger becoming more rampant and available. Do you think a weakened All Might could ever be tempted to take such a drug to fight again? If so what do you think is a big enough deal to elicit that response?

Æther Paradox

Yes the post credit is from the 3 movie but please don't watch it until afther you watch episode 18 of session 5 because there are spoilers.

talha khan

We will watch after season 5!

Letts React

Not close sadly for her haha

Letts React

Montana if you're still wanting that Burger the closest place to In N Out you're gonna get is Five Guys :)

Ethan Lundgaard

Well the one thing I would say is that watching it now would feel out of place given dekus mastery of black whip in the movie compared to where he's at in the part of the show

Jinchuriki87

Respectfully disagree. No reason to not watch it after this episode.

H-Bomb 24

FYI, Ryukuu has the same VA as Himeno from Chainsaw Man.

H-Bomb 24

So is Selkie a wholly anime-original character? Cause if his episodes weren't in the manga, and if those episodes are the ones be appeara in . . .

H-Bomb 24

As y'all have guessed, this is the lead in to the movie To reiterate what many have said, I think post s5 would be fine for watching it

Jinchuriki87

Just to answer Montana's question: If you're illegally acquiring chemicals you may send out goons to acquire more than you actually need in case you lose some to heroes or law enforcement as demonstrated in this episode. I.e. better to have more than you need than risk having less.
