Boku no Hero Academia (ONA)

Episode 1: HLB

HLB stands for "Hero League of Baseball"—it is a baseball league founded by pro-heroes who love baseball!

It's game day! The last game of HLB championship is between Gang Orca and Shishido's two rival agencies. They form a team ("Orcas" and "Lionels") to compete. In the world of HLB, there is no rule—using their Quirks is of course accepted; however, just when the game is about to finish, they are interrupted by a villain. Who will be the winner of HLB?!


Episode 2: Laugh! As if you are in hell

Deku, Bakugo, and Todoroki participate in an internship under the No.1 hero, Endeavor's agency. One of their tasks these days is to find a villain ("Smiley") who draws doodles in the city; however, since the urgency is so low, they let other pro-heroes solve this case.

One day, Smiley draws a doodle on Endeavor's house! Being furious, Endeavor himself and the 1-A trio go out to get the villain' however, Smiley's Quirk turns out to be something ridiculous but powerful... It is to make anyone who looks into his eyes laugh hysterically!

Can the team capture the villain and stop laughing?!

These 2 episodes are a nice change from what's happening in the show, these episodes are funny, relaxing, and heartwarming. We get to see the characters being silly and team up with other Heros that we haven't had the chance of seeing yet (or seen very little of their abilities).

Episode 1: Contains a lot of funny moments that me laugh, the character pick for this episode was a really good choice and makes sense story-wise. The animation is bright and colourful (as usual), it seems like a lot is happening on screen and sometimes it is a bit overwhelming but then ... it'll change suddenly and it's chill.

Episode 2: Similar to episode 1, this fits in with what's happening in the show but is filled with less tension. There is some action and it was nice to watch, the fighting is always engaging since it's so different for each character. But, again sometimes it feels a bit too much at once on screen.

Overall, it's a nice change of pace from what's happening in the show as we get to see the characters being themselves and interacting with one another will always make me laugh!

An ONA that is exactly my type; fun and entertaining. As an avid fan of MHA, waiting for the sixth season was too hard but this saves me time to optimize and offer a good kind of vibes from the tense fighting scenes in the original story. The overpowered baseball game was wholesome and hilarious. I also like that the animators decided to give the full screentime to the supporting characters during the baseball episode.

The Mr. Smiley episode was on another level of taking laughter into power. It’s an amusing glimpse to witness that characters like Bakugo and Endeavor are laughing out loud. Boku no ... hero is incomplete without showcasing Deku’s kindness that utilizes to overcome a conflict situation. He’s so cute and sincere that made him one of my favorite anime characters of all time.

Both Season 5 ONAs, Hero League Baseball, and Laugh! As if You are in Hell, succeeded in bringing an impressive entertainment factor to someone who misses the fun moments from the anime. Can’t wait for the next season!

Mixed Feelings

If you don't mind filler academia then I'm sure you're gonna enjoy this one, as did I.
THee first episode is baseball centric, an intense game between the teachers and some students, I don't personally like baseball but there was still fun to be had.
I think that the second episode is really what his ONA is about. Mr. Smiley is probably one of the best an most OP heroes to be introduced, the man can make anyone laugh historically for 2 hours, think about abdomen pain, sheesh. THe ole fact that we get otherwise serious characters to smile goofily is what makes this all worth it.
