MomoUsagii said: This is what I thought as well for the parallel with Deku, she sure has grown a lot in a psychological way, especially with her protecting goal, and she did perfectly well, and of course she still has the cute blushing moments xDAshhk said: Of course they won this match and they won the tournament overall, class A is sure skilled, Uraraka was great in this episode she was probably my fav character for this one, I wish they showed more of this match though because it was clearly one of the most interesting ones so far, and it's finally the end of this arc xD I agree I thought Uraraka was great in this short Arc. Sure she doesn’t have brute strength kind of power but I feel like she has grown a lot in her own ways! She also had a move without thinking moment which we can all appreciate (made me think back to Deku in season one right before he was acknowledged by All Might). Excited to see where it goes now as someone who hasn’t read the manga yet! |
 |
| Uraraka kicking ass while still being super cute, what else could I ask for this episode. |
| I had quite the thrill watching this episode. Now that the Joint Training Arc is over, I'm super excited for the next arc in this series. Izuku using blackwhip like that was very nice to see animated, and it definitely looks better than how it looked in the manga. Shinso's transfer to t he hero course is definitely going to be interestig. |
 |
| The 5th battle was so freakin' awesome. If One For All hadn't gone out of control, Deku's team probably could've ended their battle with an impressively quick victory just like Bakugou tbh cause they beat Class B real quick! I was blown away by how well Deku fought without really relying on OFA that much. The thing that stunned me most this ep though was how far Uraraka has come; she took down Monoma so fast on her own and then showed the trust in her teammate to be able to see their plans to the end, assisting Mina & Mineta perfectly. |
 |
| Still an underwhelming fight that had a couple good moments. Too much emphasis was placed on Midoriya and Shinso that the outcome of the entire match didn’t seem to matter. This whole arc was mediocre, but I’m glad we are getting to the “best arc” now. |
| Amazing episode! Last fight was okay. OST was good. And Class vs Class arc finally ended. Can't wait for the next arc. |
   “You yourself have to change first, or nothing will change for you!” ' |
| "Joint battle arc" ends at episode 99! Wait a minute, there is one more battle coming up as BNHA turns 100!! They never fail to show us how much of a weirdo Mineta could be at moments!! |
 |
| Everyone look super cool in this ep!....including Mineta o,o" BUT he protect Mina from that attack tho but if hes not a pervs it would be better...Uraraka and Izuku are ADORABLE! !@#%$# mostly Uraraka she nailed that move against Monoma and other two,, poor Shinzou got cut off by Aizawa-sen! |
| That was a nice end to the arc. And the next arc is meta liberation army which is an amazing arc. |
| I was expecting a bit more out of deku... but I guess this is a origin story.. something that we don't see often when we see how powerful a hero is from the end result. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| The battle ended quicker than I thought which was nice. Midoriya controlling that grabby grabby quirk was great |
 |
| You know, Shinso is right when he says that people like Midoryia will continue to move "forward" and that no one else can catch up to him because this dude gets ridiculous power-ups. In one scene, Deku couldn't control his whiplash and in the very next scene, he got it down without an issue. Talk about conveniences. |
Bananton64 said: Kinda dissapointed with this episode to be honest, the class B team looked so promising but then they sorta just gave up. Monoma's "last contribution" did absolutely nothing to Deku, and the part when he copied his quirk was so anti-climactic. I have a feeling Shinsou will just be put completely aside for 2 seasons now that he's given Deku a bit of development. All in all i'm really dissapointed with the direction the show is heading, MHA has so many good side characters, but the only characters that are focused on are Deku and Todoroki. Pretty much sums up my feelings lol, I actually liked the arc, but it wasn’t because of the constant praise and development for Class A, but it was because of Class B and Shinso’s presence and what they did in this arc, I found them much more interesting and now that the arc is over I only want to see them more lol. I really hope these characters aren’t forgotten for 2 seasons like you’re saying, I hope to see them sprinkled in here and there. But yeah, overall I enjoyed this arc, I liked it more than the first arc of Season 4, but I really wish we could have gotten another win for Class B, that would have made me like it a lot more, and maybe less Class A focus, but that’s asking way too much Ik lol. |
| I hope the next arc won't suck cuz this one sure as hell did (with the exception of ep 10&11) |
| Waiting for the stone ocean 3 anime |
| Not gonna lie, some part of me really wanted Monoma to use OFA and get his arms fucked or something. Quite simple yet entertaining arc overall. Uraraka was the MVP of this fifth match and seeing Shinsou again sure was a delight. Hopefully, he won't disappear for other two entire seasons again. |
| I liked that Midoriya even if it was only for a moment was able to use/control his new quirk. He definitely has to train hard in the future to be able to use it's full potential. And this is only 1 out of 6. Even with the fact that Midoriya only used 8% of OFA he beat Shinso pretty easy. Hearing the summary at the end was interesting and I'm happy for Shinso he passed this test. Like Uraraka and many others he grew as a person and I'm sure he will work even harder than anyone else. Seems like there will be a lot of conversations in the next episode. For a lot of people this might be boring but I personally look forward to hear what All Might, Bakugo, Todoroki and some others have to say. |
 |
| Damn, it was worth it, what a fight! Watching Midoriya getting OP as hell is one of the best things in bnh. And the whole Uraraka scene ahahaha so good man! Impossible to not ship them. Can't wait for the new arc. |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| It was fine I guess. It's no surprise that class a got the win so congrats to them. Shinzo has definitely been the mvp imo for this season and the screentime that he's receiving is rather nice to watch. Based off preview, next episode doesn't really seem to be the type that I'll like but who knows. |
 |
| ITS OVER! i can actually start caring about watching this again |
 |
| Seriously class 1A win is such bs. Izuku SUDDENLY was able to control his brand new quirk when he was in a pinch? Wow what a coincidence!! And uraraka and mina took down the 2 class B kids that easily?? Uraraka i can understand but Mina? Took out the twin guy with a punch? Seriously? As if class B guys don't train in physical combat? Honestly I've never seen any other series where the protagonist and his friends have such a ridiculous level of plot armor. Both times izuku fought shinso and won, both times were due to deus ex machina. First time he broke out of brainwashing when no one has ever done that before. How? Cause OFA decided to do its own shit. Second time, suddenly can control black whip and stop shinso's attacks. How? CAUSE HE'S THE PROTAGONIST THAT'S HOW!! smh |

| That was...fine. I guess I expected a bit more considering how much they were hyping up Deku vs Shinso, but the fight itself lasted like 30 seconds. It shouldn't be that surprising since no matter how much he may have improved, Shinso stood no chance against Deku who has had so much experience since their first encounter. But it was nice to see Shinso get into the hero spirit and get accepted into the course, and everyone had their own little moments to show off. However, due to the focus on Deku and Shinso, the rest of the classmates and the fifth match overall felt less important than expected, like it was almost an afterthought in the shadow of the Black-whip revelation. Match 3 probably still has my vote for most exciting match, thanks to the back and forth nature of it and stellar animation (who would have thought that Iida vs Mudman would be the best fight this season). But overall I'm glad this arc is done with, it was mostly just alright with some great moments but ultimately dragged down by the non-existent stakes and annoying padding. Bring on the next one! |
| Are ya winning, diners? |
Jpl79 said: This arc had some neat moments like the ending of the third match. And the entire Bakugo fight, But it just felt to much like filler to me. This show hasn't managed to wow me ever since the United States of smash scene. I heard it gets better after this arc and I sure hope so. At least with this arc done I can watch the second movie with no spoilers. I'm pretty sure you only need to watch the fourth season to watch the second movie without spoilers. Nothing that happens in this specific arc is related to that. |

| Boobs and butts in tights everywhere... Can't focus on the plot |
Low resolution drawings portraying the final result :D |
 |
| Ugh... Class A won again!? LAME!!! 2/5. |
 |
| Okay Deku will get more quirks with that? He was OP to begin so he is now another mainstream protagonist, I am out. I don't drop series but after this finish I probably will not watch the rest. I loved all the battles except this one, so I feel bad about it. |

| 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. |
