Franck_Nicolas said: I wasn't big on the show to start with. This show took off, similar to Demon Slayer, because of its art, character design, and animation. Those are still good in my book but I can see why may think it is a step down as they are doing mroe safr shots and not nearly as complex shots. MasterHavik said: (Here is my thoughts through the episode.) This show is becoming fucking annoying to watch...seriously we get a character that fucking whistles majority of the time?(Yes I know it ties back to his powers, that doesn't make less stupid.). What the fuck is this shit? No wonder 14 year olds are eating up this mess. Throw in a boring internal conflict of shit we already know and you just see me shaking my head. This show fails at being serious as much as it does being funny. Also rage....angry? What the fuck? Shinra wasn't struggling with this LOL! He was struggling with being accepted and wanting to be seen as a hero. This show is forgetting shit they setup. LOL! Anndddd now we get some stupid comedy with foot licking and whatever the those white coats are doing. More weird fire fetish shit that is suppose to be funny. The animation is still nice. Also...we're legit trying to make some stupid turn based RPG bullshit? God this is so cringe. The fight is so well done but why is this show written by hacks who think they're funny? Also, fuck Arthur with a rusty nail. This backstory jut makes him worse. He is basically living out an RP that never stop. It is so fucking cringe and stupid. This is suppose to make us care about this fucking moron. He is Patrick Star with a sword. They shove him and Shinra down our throats to desperately to make us like them. They really want them to the new Naruto and Sasuke.....without all that cool stuff that happens to them. So to have Arthur give this little speech is so odd...it sounds disjointed and very tryhard. He is also a nonstop asshole to Shinra, so why should we the viewer care about what he says? Deku and Bakugo this figure out in my opinion. I AM A HERO! Like we didn't know that last season Shinra. This shows loves repeating itself. This episode was fucking bad. I am happy the English Dub greatly improved at least. I agree with you but the animation is not that good either. It s average for a shonen, and compared to the first season a it a huge downgrade. Very disapointed in this new season, it s impossible to take anything seriously and the comedy is for 6 years old children. |

Inferno792 said: By demon mode, I mean Shinra going crazy. If you didn't understand that, then it seem you may be dumb. And how does "I like to think of myself as king" explaining a ridiculous power up not look like lazy to you? He's not going crazy, he's being controlled. There's a difference. Arthur's power is not ridiculous. At this point it's pretty clear that willpower and conviction mean A LOT. Almost all fights showed us that mental state of the characters greatly affects their power. It's not said or explained directly but it's pretty damn obvious. Do you remember how Tamaki and Iris defeated Assault? He got distracted with a bra and Tamaki falling on top of him (it was a shock to him because he never touched a girl before)... Seems ridiculous until you realize that their power is based on their mental state. Don't forget Shinra's training with Benimaru. Do you think that making hand signs made him stronger? No, making hand signs allowed him to CONCENTRATE which in turn made him a lot faster. It's all in the head, which also explains why flat out crazy or fanatical characters (White Clad) are so damn strong. |
| What the fuck was going on in this episode? It was as if I watch on bad dream of one of the characters. |
 |
| So, Arthur's backstory kinda sucks, he lives with a family that has a positive outlooks despite the hardship they have to endure and in the end his parents were just a bunch of pricks cu'z they just abandon him like that........ Shinra, still can't control his other powers and Arthur has to simply kick his ass. |
SixScoopsMeme said: That really dumb way to write a power up and can easily be fucked with later one if the writers choose to do so. I cannot believe there are people asking how arthur was able to beat shinra they totally forgot that the more delusional he becomes the more powerful he gets and what's even weird about is there is literally a sentence where ogun' in episode 2 and during their fight literally reminds the watcher that arthur becomes stronger the more delusional he is but there are people still wondering about this. I literally have no clue how is this possible. SixScoopsMeme said: Well that doesn't make it less stupid as I find the whole concept of the show to be really dumb. Like the show makes power out of the stupidest things. Shonen animes are all about the rule of cool and this show goes out of its way to make something dumb look cool but it really isn't. They also pull bullshit that allows characters to get sudden power ups. For example, Hibana on paper is broken but Shinra pulls some plot armor nonsense to beat her. She was pretty much worthless when Giovanni showed up. It's like the writers pick and choose when to make the powers effective. MasterHavik said: (Here is my thoughts through the episode.)

Deku and Bakugo this figure out in my opinion. I AM A HERO! Like we didn't know that last season Shinra. This shows loves repeating itself. This episode was fucking bad. I am happy the English Dub greatly improved at least. You need to understand that in their world there is nothing that suggests that a guy with pyrokinetic powes cannot whistle and use his powers if that is stupid then everything in this concept is stupid because there no human in reality that can produce, manipulate flames with their bodies that's fantasy so by defination fantasy = stupid while realism is correct. It depends if their world was based on realism i would had agreed with you but it is not. Also why you believe shinra didn't had any anger? The dude lost his mom and his baby bro was taken and for years he was left to believe they both died. In the final episode of season1 after the conclusion with his fight against burns where he learned his mon became the demon that for years wanted to kill and before than he found his baby brother was alive but was turned into an evil solder. I would say the dude had build up a lot of stress and anger through years. Remember around him literally was either make fun of him or talked scared calling him devil and shit . Like yoda says with fear leads to anger and anger leads to hate and to suffering it is something similar but instead of fear leading to anger i would say painful experiences leads to suffering then to anger and last to hate that is at least my version of how i would put it. Also why I don't buy the whole anger thing? Because season established how he had to deal with that harassment and just took it. He said time and time again he will prove everyone wrong and become a hero. So bring this up now....is fucking stupid and just trying to create a conflict out of thin air. There is a reason he similes when he gets nervous. JiangHaoyi1979 said: His fanboys will lap it up and talk about how cool and interesting he is. I swear the fanbase for this show is next level stupid sometimes.

| Damn Arthur was actually really badass here. And poor Shinra can't get a break. Spends his whole life trying to be a hero and some psycho naked Iris ghost just possesses him and turns him into the devil everyone wants him to be |
| Great episode and love a lot of the new characters we met! |
| I have a third testicle that gives me psychic powers |
| the op is very good and enjoyable to listen to . The art style of this anime really enhances the symbolism or something. I feel like this anime is slowly getting better. It's very good |
 Kyoto Animation rocks |
| Wait what? Captain Burns of company 1 lost his eye as a trade off for using the Adolla Link? How exactly did Shinra know this? Burns never told him that? I can't be forgetting shit cause I just finished the last season and watched the first episode of this season a couple of days ago. Anyway, why is this first pillar look like Iris? And what's this? Shinra goes full Naruto when he's under the influence of nine-tails. Or more like Shinra is Superman and Arthur's delusional ass is Batman lol. And lastly, pillars? aka hashira? Like Demon Slayer Hashira? Hmmmm. |
 |
| The flame of madness. Shinra got posessed by his Adora Burst power that actually made him mad about his true purposes. The meeting with masochist 4th division leader brought back his old hurt feeling, about her mother, about the infernal. At the end, finally the link between Shinra and his Burst got persecuted, thanks to the power of imagination that Arthur had. Talked about Arthur. Damn, its really a dark past of him, knewing his parents left him alone, using some nonsense illusion to their own child. What a disaster! Atleast, now, Arthur had the ability to control that imagination, beyond the limiter, and did him way stronger and dumber than before. Once again. A nice action packed, like the previous season. The story wisen some more depth meaning about the Adora Burst. So, yeah, soon we gotta met another new Burst owner. That pink girl! Lets move on, then! |

Like Demon Slayer Hashira? Hmmmm. A trade off explanations revealed while Burns finished visiting Shinra in the hospital. After such mere fight between them. He finally told him some of his past, with one of them why his eye like that. Seeing the world of Adora Burst made him lost his eye. Thats what i catch up with that previous explanations from Burns. About the Pillar, well, maybe some episode in the future may explain it a bit. |

| What a crazy episode, even Shinra had to kick the shit out of himself xD Capt Hague is crazy, i thought we would see him in real action but it was pure Masochism. The whole shield part was the best ahaha Finally, we got Arthur's backstory, so that's why he says that he is the king. But as long as it makes him stronger, i am all in xD Another Pillar? Oh boy! |

Code0018 said: hell yeh, Arthur having to do the good old "kick the shit outta your friend till he's sane" trick. One of the reasons i love their friendship so much, also really interesting to see some of Shinra's old classmates and friends from the academy, hope we see more of them later. "Masochist Shield" bro i fucking spat my coffee out when Arthur just GRABS the old man and uses him to fucking block a full attack to the face then continuing to fucking HUCK HIM at Shinra in a form of "Masochist Shield bash" god i love arthur, but that flashback to his past was fucking sad bro :( what horrid parent's just left my guy at such a young age. Things are actually heating up, hot blonde that i think everyone and Shinra himself thought was sister Iris, knows something they don't and is maybe part of something bigger. Oh yes!!! I couldn't have said it better myself. This is what I've been waiting for - to see Arthur in full out no BS mode. Always the comic relief, I'm glad he got to shine in the opening episodes, now let's see if it continues. |
| Error... between time 19:30 to 19:50 of this episode, Arthur's hair loses his fighting ponytail for 20 seconds, and then it comes back. He didn't retie it or anything. Production error (Oops!) |
| Well they showed where Arthurs Knight King delusion originate, but he definitely is not the brightest bulb aswell Arthur getting fully immersed in his Knight King Delusion... Shield of Masochism lmao Fake Iris/First Pillar is hot! Iris looks amazing with long Hair, can't wait to get dissapointed when she drops the illusional Iris-appearance, well atleast Iris stays Hot. |
| just because I’ve gotten weaker, doesn’t mean that you got stronger, does it? |
| I keep forgetting how powerful Arthur is. |
| Not gonna lie, the whistle guy made me laugh my *** off. Arthur for the win. |

| Wow! This was another banger of an episode with the Shinra vs Arthur fight being the clear standout🔥🤩!! Arthur sure can be a badass when he doesn't have his fight scenes ruined by some forced cringe humour( really good improvement from S1) and that backstory segment of his really helped him grow more on us on why he acts like a knight all the time. But DAMN!! Shinra berserk mode with that blonde Adola bitch controlling her really gave me the chills..😨 |
 |
| I figured the naked blondie in the OP was related to Adolla, perhaps she herself is Adolla, nothing is clear but 1 thing is sure, sheeeesh Shinra really let this girl manipulate him like that huh. They said her hatred synced with Shinra, allowing her to possess his body, interesting. it's about time Arthur got a properly badass fight sequence, the more his delusions cloud his reality, the stronger he gets, enough to deflect Shinra's rapid, though if I see him being able to deflect Shinra's faster than light Adolla burst, I'll laugh my ass off at how impossible it is, luckily that never happened, seems like Shinra himself is not capable of using that FTL technique anywhere at any time just yet. If people who posses the Adolla burst can be considered 4th generation pyrokinetics, then along with Shinra, Sho and Haumea, the next one will too... |
  |
| Damn old man with some of the strangest fetishes, not like the first one we got in this series though. Also just what is "Arthur"? Because I'm completely clueless at this point lol. |
 |
| I had almost forgotten that Arthur is best boy, but this episode reminded me again. |
| Not much changed form the first season. Only the animation I see a bit improved. |
| Poor Arthur, his past is so fucked up yet so funny. The masochism shield part had me in tears. Also the first pillar is hot. |
 |
| I'll gladly pass on maso grandpa but Arthur's father is fine af, daaamn. Shinra serving as well. Didn't expect the knight's parents to abandon him. Would explain his delusional fantasy world. Now please explain his stupidity. |
 watching, waiting, commiserating |
