La Brava and Gentle are two of my fav BNHA villains. Their backstories were sad. They aren't bad people. This was the first time I actively cheered for the villains to win. I knew Deku would win, but it still hurt to see Gentle and La Brava lose.

I have to admit that this episode changed totally mi opinion about Gentle...

In all the previous episodes, i considered it just dumb or lame...

But this one, was completely different... the proved he has Real Honor, Loyalty and Mostly Love.

Being sincere, i must also say, that if he never comes back, i will not miss him.

But is something totally different with La Brava. Maybe for some people it was just a temporary loli in the series, but she showed us a real and entirely pure connection with Gentle.... Just Beautiful. I'll definetly miss her.

And Gentle corresponded that connection, he welcomed her, he appreciated her, he let her help him, but mainly he "Accepted" her... This is something to admire from him.

Great Episode.

gentle's circumstances and past were all very unfortunate. i'm glad we got that backstory on him before he was arrested and never to be seen again in this show jskfsdjfs
la brava's quirk is so cute lol her backstory was unfortunate too but a little melodramatic. she got turned down and made fun of in middle school and now she resorts to crime and loves a criminal lmao ok

gentle and la brava's relationsihp is so wholesome tho uwu glad they showed us some of their cute moments
you could feel how genuine her love was, but i really didn't think gentle had any chance against deku
it only took one kick and he was down lmao he tried

kinda sad their fight only lasted like 2 episodes. seems a bit short for all the build up we got with the filler-like episodes
not a bad episode though. gentle did put up a fight and it wasn't totally easy for deku
hoping deku gets more rope and back to the school in time for the show (lmao sounds like such a small and meaningless problem in an anime that also has villains and superpowers but i digress)

This episode was great.

Gentle and La Brava are amazing villains. I'm not joking. You don't need to be ugly, edgy and kind of "ohh look at me, I like blood and I'm a very violent crazy bastard!" to be a good villain.

Their love bond is really strong!

*This arc is better than Overhaul's one.
*La Brava is better loli than Eri.
Change my mind.

Aaah It was a long time since I was on the villain's side, as I thought Gentle was not bad, you are not worried about others you just want the fulfillment of your selfish desires and you use excuses to look like a good person, at least for the time being Deku, really I hate you.
I like to post in manga forum when I feel it is worth it, so people will think. "Shit, is her again" or something.

People asked me where I read certain thing but the rules say no telling where did you read so maybe I am too boring for not saying? Or salty because you didn't check my profile that says don't ask because I hate people to ghost me after that. I love learning languages so maybe I did not read the manga in English.

Gentle and La Brava are my favourite "villains".

I was sad the whole time after Gentle's flashback cause I knew I am going to see a mans dream getting crushed.

Please let Gentle's dream become a reality in a different way and please let La Brava have a bright future.

Now every time I drink tea I will remember Gentle.

I literally just want Gentle and La Brava to win, like I actually wanted them to beat Deku.

Gentles backstory, when he tried to help that guy and it backfried my stomach dropped... like it just felt too dark... oh my god and then when his classmate didnt remember him it nhhhgggg

also explains why he doesnt like violence

FUCK i care more about these villains than i do eri or deku at the moment, literally dont know what that says about this series

Ok, this was so far the worst arc of this series, but it’s incredibly ironic that Gentle and La Brava were at the same the best villains this series has ever had.
This time I was actually cheering for the villains, I wish they would find a way through Izuku or something. I wanted them to escape at least

This was really emotional, 5/5

They nailed this episode. The background of both Gentle and La Brava was just sad. La Brava was so brave to write her crush a love letter and this idiot was just laughing at her.

In Gentles case he also just wanted to help and it backfired. Seeing him kicked out from home made it way more emotional as I thought. Gentle rescued La Brava, who knows what she would have done to herself otherwise. I liked the animation when Gentle got his power boost and I can also understand why this was the hardest fight so far for Midoriya (in a mental way seen).

No joke, I also was rooting for Gentle. I actually wanted him to win or least to escape. I just hope he and La Brava don't get punished to hard.

Is Gentle the best villain this series has ever seen? Perhaps.

The real villains are people who still think this is a filler arc and don't realize this is in the manga.

I loved this arc in the manga and I feel like the anime did it decent justice.

I hope that we see Gentle and La Brava come back in some capacity on the side of the heroes, given what was said in the epilogue about do-overs.

Damn, that was really sad. This episode is the only one with emotion. I was rooting for Gentle to win. He felt relatable which gave him a really human side.

I fucking hate Eri, she's just a failed character.

This episode was simply excellent and it truly went beyond the fairly low expectations I had towards the outcome of this battle since it didn't impact me much when I first read it. Even though the latter part of their fight went by very quickly, the raw emotion seeping from both Gentle and La Brava's voicework and the music enhanced the experience so much that it definitely made this one of my favorite MHA episodes so far! Kirishima's fights were the ones that I enjoyed the most in the Overhaul Arc but they really hit it out of the park here.

Seeing Gentle's tragic descent to villainy brought by a series of unfortunate circumstances as a way to make his life have meaning made me feel so sorry for him and his wholesome bond with La Brava was so damn sweet that I actually wanted them to make a clean escape so they can continue to be happy together doing their clout-chasing antics. He tried so hard to leave his mark on society like what Stain did effortlessly but he gave up on all of that without hesitation so he can at least make things less difficult for his partner when their inevitable defeat come and that absolutely devastated me. Despite being on the opposition, his core ideologies are pretty much the same as Deku's and they both knew that. He's definitely someone I'd love to see get his life together and live happily later into the series.

Anyway, it's party time!

Coming from a to year old account with only 33 posts....I find that baffling you are even trying to talk to me. MAL has too many of these sockpuppets flying around. I'll humor you real quickly.

Gentle and La Brava are i their situations because of their own poor decisions. This show legit tried to make me feel bad for a former stalker and a guy who was such a fuck up he didn't realize it until now. The amount of self awareness they have is like 3 inches of draw distance in a video game. I love My Hero Academia but this has to be one of the poorest written parts of the show so far. At least when you had Bakugo and Torodoki playing with kid there was a point to it.

Wow, your post just come off as being HIGHLY shallow. And what the hell is up with that sock puppet accusation? That's a rather dumb assumption.

That elasticity.. is deadly.. he can totally suffocate and kill people by stopping the air in bodies if he wanted..

And really.. I'm still thinking why does Deku need to go buy rope when Yaoyorozu can create rope from her body? With all his geekiness he should've remembered. Or even the others.

*Sigh*
