Phew heavy stuff. That Midnight scene hurt a little more than I thought it would.

I thought the entirety of this episode was recap when I checked the discussion before watching it, but in reality it was at most maybe half of the episode so I’m not really upset about it

really hyped for the future of this show though, I like this darker tone

The new opening and ending theme was so good. The music and visuals were really good. Best opening by far

i think after all the very destructive fights we saw... an aftermath was needed, the impact was at large and seeing the sadness was really sad. as someone who's not read the manga, i rlly think deku is going to learn more about the other quirks he acquires from the other past wielders.

The first 12 minutes is all recap of what just happened. Idk if they think someone is going to jump into this season on episode 14 or what, but it was really annoying for half the episode to be wasted.

Everyone seems upset with the recap but I actually kinda liked it? It was paced pretty well, ost sounded great, integrated well story-wise (hero commission report allowed for old info to transition effectively into new info and it's very in character for Deku to read something like that), and only took up half an episode instead of the whole thing. I get that we didn't really need a recap, but if there had to be one, this is like, the best possible recap studio bones coulda done. And like other ppl have said, it is the new years, animators work super hard and deserve a break.

Endeavor's PR team must be going through their worst nightmare right now. ALSO MIDNIGHT 😭 REST IN PEACE. I'm worried about the future, I'm glad so many were arrested but Deku's depression arc + the massive damages mentally, emotionally, and physically to everyone involved is gonna be a problem (the intro was cool tho).

Still fuming when I read the manga to see that Midnight died.

That said, Gran Torino should have died, not Midnight!

Well, to each his own. I chose my path, you chose the way of the hero. And they found you amusing for a while, the people of this city. But the one thing they love more than a hero is to see a hero fail, fall, die trying. In spite of everything you've done for them, eventually they will hate you. Why bother?

new OP & ED, felt they were coming after the last ep. Both seem good and pretty much what's expected of MHA songs as of late, don't think either are particular standouts tho.

Basically a recap ep for the first half of the season. Deku doesn't mention Iida when mentioning the interns that faced Shigaraki alongside Endeavor, further cementing his sidelining in the overall story lol. So they kill off midnight and a bunch of no-names, tbh really shows a fear to touch more established characters, even when trying to show such devastation the most high profile death is Midnight lol. I get a feeling Horikoshi was likely reigned in by his editor and not allowed to kill off any of the class 1a, either that or it's his own timidity when faced with killing off his characters. Either way the whole Bakugo thing just feels like a main cast death that they couldn't commit to.

If it's not obvious from this comment my frustrations with MHA are defo coming to a head this season, if it doesn't end strong, I might have to consider dropping and not bothering with S7.

Mostly recap but whatever. New OP looks really good. Lots of cool sequences. Whole hero society is kinda gone to shit etc etc but man they actually killed off a character we know decently well (Midnight). I'm a little impressed.

  "The fact that she died off-screen wasn’t very popular with the My Hero Academia fandom, which has always been a big supporter of Midnight. MHA's anime, like the manga before it, relegated her demise to a quiet beat that got very little attention, which is quite different from how the deaths of other major heroes and villains in My Hero Academia are usually handled. When an important character dies, they are usually allowed to go out in a blaze of glory and/or get some kind of goodbye, but Midnight was denied both. What's even more disappointing is that she was hardly offered the opportunity to become an important character, either, despite her strong fan support and interesting journey. Her death in My Hero Academia will always feel unsatisfying because of this mishandled approach."

read this and I agree. the way they handled her death is kinda meh

I don't know how far in advace but not having content for this kidns of dates is common in various anime I've watched. Maybe the animators also take time off in advance? I honestly don't know.

Those injuries are so bad OMG !!! The heroes may have made villain's retreat but the heroes haven't won at all!! 

This Episode feels more like the informative type of everything that has happened and the aftermath which is not good !!

Seriously the rest of the season is just going to be more intense honestly !! OHH The OP and ED are good I like it it kind of matched the whole felling now!!

The recap felt painfully unnecessary. Especially since we already got a mini recap a few episodes. The rest of the episode was great.

The new opening felt depressing with how Midoriya looked. Definitely feels appropriate with the new direction this show is now going.

All of the devastation felt surprisingly grounded which made it all hit much harder. RIP Midnight.

So the majority of this episode seems to be a recap of what's happened, but they do a really good job at showcasing the damage that was done and it's clear that it will take time for this society to get back to what it was before...

AFO plans to break out... Interesting... I'm wondering how that will pan out. I wonder if Eri will use Rewind to restore Aizawa and the other heroes to their former selves. I guess we'll have to see.

Lastly, I love how the new ending highlights the journey that has taken place throughout the series. And what is this new outfit of Deku's?! Hmmm....

Bro I'm excited for what's to come.

Half of the episode was recap, also Uraraka said with such determination that she didn't want to be on the disaster rescue role but the combat one, and then here we are, seeing how more useful she is there

While half of this episode was a recap, it was meant to show the aftermath of what happened, which was important.

I'm really disappointed that Midnight was killed. That alone was a shocker.
