Omg, these names were all diamond. Froppy! Uravity! I enjoyed this episode a lot for some reason. I especially love the smooth transition into the next arc. I'm ecstatic to see how Midoriya will grow and how Iida will overcome the incident with his brother and Stain.

Surprisingly loved this episode more so than the previous!

Some names are so hilarious especially the first, Aoyama lmao I burst out laughing when he presented his hero name lmao.
Then Jirou teasing of Kaminari's name is also hilarious.
And of course there is Bakugou lmaooooo "Baku Satsu Ou" | "King Murder Explosion" REALLY BAKUGOU hahaha.
I thought he came up with a less villainish name, he looked like he is doing much erasing and rewriting on the board. But instead he came up with "Baku Satsu Kyou" | "Lord Murder Explosion" LMAO he only changed the friggin last kanji hahaha
BUT IN THE END HE IS THE ONLY ONE WHICH HERO NAME LEFT UNSAID I'M SO FRIGGIN CURIOUS TILL THE EP ENDING.

But then I came to this forum and someone pointed out his official hero name which is supposedly put in a spoiler tag???? I mean maybe they are meant to be revealed at a later time?

Speaking of clever name, Kirishima's also clever~

Aoyama: "I can not stop twinkling" "Can't stop twinkling" (okay still weird, probably he will change it later?)
Ashido: "Alien Queen" "Pinky"
Tsuyu: "Tsuyu Iri Hero: Froppy" | "Rainy Season Hero: Froppy"
Kirishima: "Gouken Hero: Reddo Raioto" | "Sturdy Hero: Red Riot" (Reddo is from kanji [Retsu] [Fierce] and [Do] [Rage], Raioto is from kanji [Rai] [Reliance], [O] [Male], and [To] which has no literal meanings)
Kaminari: "Jamming-way" "Stun Gun Hero: Charge-zuma" | "Stun Gun Hero: Chargebolt" (-zuma is from Inazuma which means Lightning Bolt)
Jirou: "Hearing Hero: Earphone Jack"
Shouji: "Shokushu Hero: Tentacole" | "Tentacle Hero: Tentacole"
Sero: "Taping Hero: Serofan" | "Taping Hero: Cellophane"
Ojiro: "Butou Hero: Tailman" | "Martial Arts Hero: Tailman"
Satou: "Kanmi Hero: Sugarman" | "Sweets Hero: Sugarman" (his name, Satou means sugar)
Hagakure: "Stealth Hero: Invisible Girl"
Yaoyorozu: "Manbutsu Hero: Creati" | "Everything Hero: Creati" (the kanji [Man] is also the last kanji in Yaoyorozu name)
Todoroki: "Shouto"
Tokoyami: "Shikkoku Hero: Tsukuyomi" | "Jet-black Hero: Tsukuyomi" (to quote Midnight, Tsukuyomi is God of Night. I think it's a cool and fitting name for Tokoyami!)
Mineta: "Mogitate Hero: Grape Juice" | "Fresh-picked Hero: Grape Juice"
Kouda: "Fureai Hero: Anima" | "Petting Hero: Anima"
Bakugou: "Baku Satsu Ou" | "King Murder Explosion" "Baku Satsu Kyou" | "Lord Murder Explosion" (for supposedly a smart character, he is shit at coming up with names lmao, he is the only one whom hero name hasn't yet revealed in the anime)
Uraraka: "Uravity"
Midoriya: "Deku"
Iida: "Tenya"

I thought Iida is going to use his brother's hero name "Ingenium". I think he will. But not now eh? I bet it's gonna be when this arc ends.

Deku is using "Deku" as his hero name is totally unexpected. I think Deku sounds lame. But he is trying to change the insulting nickname Kacchan gave him into something good. But then it means that name will forever be a reminder of his terrible history with Kacchan? What does Bakugou think of Deku using the name he came up with as an insult to be his hero name instead?

Also I loved the fact that Aizawa got his hero name from Present Mic! Aawww

TINY IZUKU IN ALL MIGHT ONESIE IS THE CUTEST THING EVER.

Uh oh Iida no, he probably going to seek revenge!! Don't go into that dark path Iida!

Also, which Hero Agency Todoroki and Bakugou choose?? HYPED. I'M ALWAYS HYPED WHEN IT COMES TO THIS TWO.

It's seems like Gran Torino suffering from dementia? lmao.

See you in the final episode! (For real this time, I'm binge watching this show damn it)

PLUS ULTRA!

Bakugo made me laugh again.
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

Froppy is the best code name. Bakugou code name "Lord Explosion Murder". I think he should be allowed to keep it.

Iida at the end. Got a bad feeling.

Anime-only's have no idea what's coming their way. Buckle yourselves in for one hell of a ride..

Episode was a nice cool-down from coming off the end of the festival arc, and we got to see the hero names revealed which amused me in the manga.

All Might being scared of Torino was even better than in the manga as well.

Remember guys, NO EPISODE NEXT WEEK. Anime returns July 8th with a new OP and ED.

That's fair I guess. Normally I would but since they said the name already in the 2nd cour trailer I thought it was okay but looking back I guess it isn't too easy to hear what Midoriya is saying. Editted.

This first cour was unexpectedly amazing. As someone who doesn't read manga, light novels, and the like, I had no clue what to expect. Boy am I glad that I didn't watch any trailers, because I was in for an amazing ride. While I do think that season 1 was great, this first cour of season 2 has blown that out of the water.

First off, we got a freaking TOURNAMENT ARC! Wow. Just wow. The whole tournament was full of excitement, ingenuity, and badass moments from the get go. With Midoriya flying over the competition in the first leg and Mineta's idea of using Shouji as a shield in the second, I just didn't know what I'd see next. Then they came out with the freaking 1v1s, and HOLY SHIT were they awesome. Some, of course, were glanced over because they weren't as important to the story or whatever, but full-out fights like Uraraka vs Bakugo and Midoriya vs Todoroki were just so fun to watch.

The introduction of characters from other classes and their quirks and personalities was really cool too. They'd previously mentioned that there were "lesser" classes, but it wasn't until now that we got to see them in action. Hatsume and her "babies" were funny, Hitoshi and his brainwashing made for some epic drama against Midoriya, and Tetsutetsu with Kirishima was very comical.

Though I do feel the final episode of the first cour came to a rather slow and uneventful conclusion, it definitely leaves a lot on the plate about what to be hyped for in a few weeks. I honestly don't know how any of this is gonna play out, but I'm sure it's gonna be epic.

Definitely one of the best anime this season.

Side notes from episode 13:

  • Froppy❤. Another reason why Tsu is probably best girl (still can't decide, kmn).
  • Uravity is one of the cutest freaking names. Gah, Uraraka's so cute.
  • Iida needs to get his fucking head out of his ass or he's gonna get himself killed and end his family's lineage. You have a freaking legacy to uphold; don't dishonor your family of heroes, you moron.

Ultimate Score: 11/10
Would recommend to a friend.

P.S. - This cour's OP and ED are better than season 1's. Fight me.

The episode was just ok, it was a nice cool down after the energizing sports festival arc.

I was really excited to see what names people came up with but found myself a little disappointed with a few of them. Maybe its just because I fully expected Tenya to be EMERGENCY EXIT, and Uraka to be INFINITY GIRL.

I'm pretty sure the names they chose will grow on me but I'm still and probably will continue to be disappointed that ALIEN QUEEN wasn't acceptable but PINKY was.

I liked the segment of the Hero Name choosing.A hero name will be the id everyone will know them by so it was very important but compared to Ida's personal vendetta it feels superficial
The kid's eyes in that last scene were cold and full of a killer's instinct.I am still so curious to see why Midorya said he will live to regret his decision.I hope he will not die.
But is ALSO STUPID AND SUPERFICIAL for smb so on point as Ida is to lose all focus when it comes to Stain.better heroes than you were put down,what will you do?be able to resist longer,to what outcome,because in the given circumstances all I can predict is DEATH.

probably because it's associated with the antagonist of the series Alien. In the manga they say "Ridley Hero: Alien Queen" So I'm guessing that's why they weren't specific on that because of copyright.

Kind of an uneventful episode this week, but it was fun seeing them come up with names for themselves. Poor Bakugo, didn't get to be King Explosion Murder. Still, Red Riot and Froppy are probably the best names to come out of this class.

Iida looks like he might be turning into Sasuke. Uh-oh.

Also, calling it now, Midoriya's motto will probably be something along the lines of "You can do it!" or "I can do it!" etc. etc.

Ah, this was a fun chapter in the manga and it was fun to watch it as well. Pretty chill episode with everyone coming up with names. It's always great to see Midnight too. I lol'd so hard when Bakugo tried with his names all involving "murder" in them.

Feelsbadman for Iida about his brother not being able to recover from the damage. The post credits scene with Deku meeting Torino had me dying.

and also for Shoto, did he really use his name? he could use better aliases, for example "Climate hero: Cold Burn", which contain both cold (ice) and burn (fire).

I think he doesnt name himself based on his quirks cuz he doesnt want people to remember him as the son of endeavor, or the hero who has endeavor's quirk, but rather as just shoto, as who he is.

Best code name choice was Froppy ImO. Her ability is more the kind of utilitarian ability that save peoples during disasters (natural or not) with her swimming, climbing, jumping, catching ability. She nailed it with an easy to remember, on point with both her appearance and ability, and easy to like name.
Uravity was clever, but lacks compared to Froppy due to what I wrote above. Uraraka is aiming at the same kind of hero as Froppy from what she says, yet her name while clever sounds more of the cool kind than the "likeable" kind

You might have missed it cuz uraraka doesnt want to become the same kind of hero as froppy. She chose a combat based company because instead of aiming to save and rescue, which is the most obvious and easiest choice for her due to her quirk, she doesnt want to limit herself and want to challenge herself to more things.

So Iida and Shoto are stuck with their real names? I hope that changes in the future. Iida should be called as Ingenium 2.0 or something and an even more cooler name for Shoto is what I'm hoping for. Deku is probably the most fitting name for Izuku, afterall I'm already used to Bakugo and Uraraka calling him Deku xD!
This Gran Torino guy is really eccentric, but even All Might is shaking in his pants, wonder what made him do so...
"Deku" means "Good for nothing" so it probably will change.

Bakugou with his names XD; imo Bakugou is an interesting character who has the potential to be grow more and more as a hero.
Tenya needs not to go down that route :/

Here's a quick quote from a quick google search.
Izuku's nickname, "Deku", was given to him by Katsuki when they were little. "Deku" is another reading of his name 出久, and Bakugou uses it to mock Izuku, as "Deku" can mean "one who can't achieve/do anything". Later, Ochako finds the nickname very inspiring because "Deku" gives off a feeling of "I can do it".

You conveniently missed her first sentence when Deku said he thought she would aim for the same type of hero as 13.
She said that her final goal is exactly that, then she proceed to explain why she still choose something different right now. I did use the word "aiming" and it's correct here, her aim is the same type of hero as Froppy.
