| Definitely the most intense episode yet! I was cheering for All Might for the whole time. Soundtrack was absolutely perfect and the fight scenes are extreme. One of the beat up villains looked very much like an alien from Parasyte :3 |

SchwartZero said: I like how All Might went ''Do you not know how to hold back?'' And then afterwards, he punched a dude 300 times and sent him flying into the stratosphere. Well, Nomu has just aimed a punch that sent All Might straight into a wall, against a young teenage kid. It would have been like aiming a full smash attack at Bakago's head. That was why he commented on the villains not knowing how to hold back, even against a kid. |
BLmatsu said: ouriel said: I've seen GITS before so I understand what you mean. Ofc, GITS's animation is far superior. (It's a film too, so more budget.)But the director is directly responsible for how a scene will play out, the way a scene will be shot and the way they'll use the camera in order to deliver information, without to be confused about what happened or just to look cool for the sake of looking cool. This a well directed action scene, you have enough visual information to see what's going on, with clear cuts, wide angle use and steady cam. Another good example is this one, altho not utilising the use of wide angle shots, but the delivery of information is quite concise. Now compare these scenes and tell me which one is better. :) I'll show you the final fight in Kekkai Sensen (also animated by studio BONES). The scene uses the same weird shaky cam effect we saw in this ep of BnHA :/ (Tbh, I have no clue what is going on in the fight lol) And this is one of the better choreographed fights in GBF. There's no wide angles or steady cams, but you can clearly see the animators tried to make the events that happen in the fight clear. And they don't use the shaky cam. (Fun fact, GBF has the same music composer as BnHA as well) So yeah... it doesn't really feel like this director's doing. Maybe the episode director, person in charge of storyboard, or animator. The Gundam scene is certainly better, and perhaps using such approach would've been better, however, in the end, I think this scene received the reactions needed, the feel of epicness, altho I would've liked it if it was more clean animation, but that's my personal nitpick(or annoyance, because of how often action scenes are choreographed in anime). :D |
 |
| Whooooa.... All Might shows how awesome he really is. That fight scene was intense and kudos to Bones for that nice animation. Can't wait for the next episode. :) |
 |
| "this power is....IT´S ALL MIGHT" This episode was the best by far,if i could id rate it 6/5. that fight was a great representation of how to be a hero,i don´t think they´ll be needing more lessons lol. |

| Holy shit this show just keeps getting better and better! All Might is a fuckin BOSS!! 6/5 |
| Damn that was amazing. I'm usually not a fan of repetitive strikes like that (because it's kinda boring and unimaginative) but this was fine I guess. The overall fight totally compensated for that. I'm really curious if All Might can hide his weakness from his students. I actually expected him to pop back into his "weak" form before landing the final hit against that monster. |
| I had to rewind to understand that fight scene. That was amazing 5/5 |
Me while watching: |
 |
| so what is so good about this generic fight. The boring flashback? The boring generic worried lines? The generic JoJo OraOra fist fight (I don't hate JoJo though but in JoJo this is the norm, nothing special)? The generic shounen power up (fighting someone stronger than you? no worries the author will just give you a power boost or new tech if you're in shounen)? The theme music power up? The Nomu/Team Rocket is blasting away again? The face palm guy trying to be menacing by face palming himself while slow villain generic talking that just makes look like an emo teen chuuni? The usual generic shounen villain explaining their plans and ability to the heroes? The clunky cartoony animation? The shit choreography? |

Also All Might didn't obtain some random power boost, he already had the strength to overpower the Nomu and his Shock absorption, which does have a limit. |

| Wow...This show is fucking awesome! I LOVE this shit! My heart was racing the entire episode, I can't remember the last show that had me this excited. Felt like 5minutes xD. Really sad theirs only 1 episode left, but i'd rather it end now for awhile and pick up again next year or so rather than having filler bullshit like Naruto & Bleach. |
| No ! Only one episode remaining... This episode was awesome, All-might was badass when he saved everyone and even more incredible during the fight. Some camera angles were weird during Nomu vs All-might, but it was epic the most of the time. |

| Aikawarazu ne, Punk Hazard shounen. He helped All Might without sweat, he should be a pro already with those OP quirk. Bakugou, although still cocky, was willing to teamwork with Midoriya shounen and others. Nice..!! (*´～｀*)b |

|
| That Plus Ultra though goddamn This episode was epic. Those last few minutes were the best! |
| can anyone tell me, the words in japanese when he says, go beyond ? |
| Wow, enjoyed this episode. All Might remains powerful as ever; even if, don't have the strength that he used to have before. |
 |
| This was good! No, it was amazing!!! All Might fought with his whole power and kicked his ass! |
 |
| Deku better have a one for all moment next episode. I was hoping he would this episode but Kaachan and todoroki came which was pretty cool |
| damn I'm definitely going to cry if All Might dies (If he does die, I have a feeling he will) |

No since users of OFA use 100% of the power without even using their raw strength and with training then you can add your strength to the already 100% of OFA. And since ALL Might is already powerful, it sorta makes sense. |

Didn't they explain that he surpassed his 100%. what is that other than the usual shounen power up. That was more so All Might having an adrenaline moment then an actual "shounen powerup" and again in the middle of the fight All Might specifically mentions how the Noumu quirk isn't Shock Nulification, but Shock Absorption. Meaning one has a defined limit and the other does not and he simply exceeded that limit. Also you can logically assume that the Villains underestimated All Might's strength, even with his declining power the anime/manga makes it clear how freakishly strong the guy is. He even says it himself that it would of only taken five good punches in his prime to defeat the Noumu rather than the 300 he threw out. |

| 11/10 would go beyond. Superb episode. |
 |
| All Might went HAM in this episode. Loved the action. |
| Bakugou is always angry lmao All might is super-duper cool! That animation was amazing, too! |
 |
| Fantastic episode ! The music and fight scenes were amazing once again. Bakugou had that crazy look in his eyes. I can imagine him joining the The League of Villains sooner or later lol. |
 |
| Had One Punch Man flashbacks. Plus Ultra punch was amazing. All Might is great. He's not Saitama broken, but by god is he a strong bastard. |
 |
| Oh boy that cliffhanger! Really intense episode! Really amazing ending, can't wait to see how this first season will end in the next episode! |
 |
| This was probably my favorite episode of the series so far. I maintain that All Might is hands down the most likable character in this series, and after having his power hyped up for an entire cour seeing it in action was pretty satisfying. Watching this reminds me of the old days when I used to read Silver Age Superhero comics, you've set up a villain who by his very nature is more powerful than the hero. So how will he overcome it? The answer this time was punch it so many times, you just launch it far away (where exactly I don't know). I'm interested in what they're going to do next time as well. All Might is at his limit and there's still Hand-man and the Gate Monster to deal with. It seems Deku, Bakugo and the other two are gonna have to step up and do some hero stuff to save the day. I honestly do just hope this is resolved quickly though. It seems like this anime is gunning for a second series, but I want a satisfying conclusion. Not a fourth episode of the characters fighting some villains I don't care about. |
 |
| That fight! Team Rocket's blasting off again! That was so bad-ass! All Might might be the best character! |
 |
| The awesome awesome OST just added to how amazing this episode was, what a way to set up the finale! |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| What an amazing fight! This episode not only succeeded but excelled this part in the manga in every way possible. |
 |
| All Might's fight was the most amazing thing I've seen since One Punch Man. Pulled me so close to the edge of my seat I nearly fell off! I was like a kid watching Saturday morning superhero shows and just couldn't resist shouting PLUS ULTRA with him it was THAT GOOD! Fantastic how he can pull off such an AMAZING comeback even while we're all worried about his injuries and time-limit. I don't care if it was another typical "I'm practically dead but somehow can do 500% of what I normally can do" cliches, it was amazing as hell to watch |
| I watched this episode last night and oh my god it is the best episode in the series ,although the show is a generic shounen but I enjoyed it a lot I don't care for originality as far the execution is good . the last thing I want to say is that all might is my favourite character in this show so far ,he proved to be an influential role model and he is willing to sacrifice himself to save others,he reminded me of whitebeard his era is about to end and he witness himself aging and weakening as time passes just like one of those professional football player when they reach their limit and have to accept the fact that they are no longer the same as they were and they have to retire ,I can predict that all might is going to die a heroic ending later in the story. in other shounen the role model that influenced the main character is absent and didn't have a lot of screen time but here they gave him a lot of screen time ,and make us to see more of him I'd like if the show would focus more on the side characters and their development in upcoming season. |

| I thought it was a bit anti-climatic tbh... :( |
 |
| All Might too fcking epic! |
TrizeptJul 15, 2016 5:30 PM
 |
| yay! all might! 💙 |
| Now, this is what I was hoping for when I started this show. It took them 12 episodes, but we finally got an awesome fighting scene. The tension of not knowing when All Might's time limit would be up + his decreasing powers made it all the better to still see him pull off a winning combo against that Nomu guy. Easily the best episode in the show. |
