Iida's mind is hella clouded rn :( sad he can't see clearly and only thinks of vengeance atm that he didn't even care to save Hero Native ;~; but I'm glad Todoroki's overcome his problems and is stronger now without any chains holding him back. Deku and Todo bettuh talk some sense into him :P

Even Stain deems Deku worthy enough to let live. ANNDDD Gran said All Might chose a good one to inherit his powers. That's telling you something, Iida. You better bounce back quick or youse gon eat Deku dust lololol

With that being said, Deku is one lucky motherfucker lmfao. Thank Mama and Papa Deku for giving you blood type O xD he's smart too, to be able to figure out things based on observation and facts mid-battle. Little moments like these make me accept him more as the MC lolol cuz otherwise, he still got a lot to learn before he can carry the world like All Might ;3

Man, Todoroki's dad stepped in ;/ I hope Gran gets more spotlight in battle soon. I get that he's rusty and all, but ch'mon, gramps! I'm rooting for ya! >;D

I thought the tournament arc was better than everything before it by a decent margin, so I was worried that I wouldn't enjoy the show as much after. Thankfully, this episode was awesome and gives me a lot of faith.

Hosu City has turned into Nomu City. Good to see Endeavor doing heroic deeds.

Iida's older brother is a hunk. I'm sure Iida will be just as handsome. He's already handsome but still young.

Damn, Deku came in like a badass.

LOL at Todoroki's profile, he likes soba (the kind that's not hot) even through his food he hates his dad.

Wow, even Hero Goroshi acknowledged Deku's potential. That's pretty awesome

Also, Deku was clever enough to figure the connection to Stain's quirk and blood.

Good thing my other fave character, Todoroki appeared. Glad to know his mother apologized and gave him strength to move forward. Also, he and Deku were there to show the stupid Iida-kun how dumb he was being and what it means to be a hero.

Damn, Todoroki gained a lot of sympathy points from me this episode. His character really improved a lot since the beginning of the tournament. But that hero killer is hella strong, they definitely need a pro there. From the preview it looks like it might be his dad? Wonder where the old man is though.

no, she isn't???

if i remember the flashbacks correctly, she loved shouto to bits and pieces and always tried to protect him and teach him that he could be whoever he wanted.

she never disowned him. the conversation we heard her having on the phone was her asking for help because she couldn't take the abuse from endeavor anymore. she never said she would not be his mother anymore, she simply confessed she didn't think she would be able to keep raising him well if things stayed that way. you know, sometimes love means knowing when to ask for help and when to take a step back to get better before coming back.
and before you mention the scar she gave him, i don't really believe she did that on purpose or out of hatred. she was startled by him being there at that time.

she may not had been the perfect mother, i do agree with that. but i see no reason for him to hate her when she was, as you yourself mentioned, the only person in the world he trusted by then.

That was a really grisly fight they all had with Stain. It's definitely the bloodiest fight in the series so far thanks to his very effective and intimidating bleed build. If it weren't for Deku coming in with an assist and Todoroki following shortly after thanks to his intuition sensing something wrong with his location update, Iida and Native would've been another addition to the Hero Killer's kill count. Ingesting the slightest drop causes paralysis but I sometimes wonder if he cuts his tongue licking a katana that's that rugged-looking. Even if he has a point about unworthy, selfish people taking up the mantle of hero for all the wrong reasons, killing them because of that just goes too far.

Endeavor and the other pro heroes are against the Nomus and they're handling them pretty well.

This show is straight badass. No other way to put it. The way Deku radiates green electricity, so cool. I'd say it's cooler than Dragon Ball and the aura of their transformations.
EDIT: also Todoroki has to have the coolest quirk, second to Deku's maybe, but I can't see anyone else rivaling his. He's a beast, and he's somewhat likeable especially compared to Bakugo.

This episode is so intense!

It is easy for Stain to defeat Tenya.



I love Deku's surprise attack! His ability is improving!



Shoto's arrival is so badass! He finally unleashes his fire power! I love his character development. He realizes that everything can be simpler for him. Thanks to Deku's words of wisdom, Shoto finally opens his eyes, becoming a better version of himself. He is dedicated to protect his friends.



Deku and Shoto can build their own empire/hero company. I love the way they fight against Stain. They will do anything to protect Tenya and others, while trying to defeat Stain.



I love the scene wherein Shoto motivates Tenya to look properly at who he wants to become. I can really see that Shoto is a great friend.

Tenya, on the other hand, reflects on himself. It is a good thing that he finally starts to realize the essence of being a true hero.

I love this episode. ♥

I could say this is one of my fave episodes so far. I didn't expect for Todoroki to care about Iida and it was nice to see that he reconciled with his struggles and his mother. I clearly understand that Iida was shrouded with anger right now, but I hope his friends will help him recover. This episode is too intense I can't help but to jump from my seat a lot of times

I hope he doesn't stand up and start attacking. It would completely undermine the message they're claiming to be trying to send. If they actually want to stick with the message, then he should stand up, grab Native and run so that the other two can also retreat.

That was quite a episode. Deku's entrance was quite dramatic and heroic. He came just in time and that punch was cool. However that shows that the hero killer isn't totally a bad guy but he has a distorted brain. He doesn't likes fake heroes and that is why he is trying to eliminate them. Unfortunately the guy has a wrong definition of hero. Though he recognized the hero inside Deku. The guy got a weird quirk. But another amazing thing was Todoroki's entrance. I should've knew that if Endeavor is here than so do Shouto. Good thing they showed the scene of Shouto talking to his mother. Shouto was also keeping an eye on Iida. Lucky him. I didn't thought Iida could go dark. However now he needs some training on his being hero. And sure next time it will be amazing to see.

This fight wasn't as awesome as I hoped it would be, but technically it hasn't finished yet so there's still hope.

Hopefully they work together and beat Stains ass.

SO many emotions in one episode & I’m so proud of Todoroki?????? His development is really fleshed out, when he acknowledges that his bitch of a dad has good judgement & how he can actually learn from his dad, he has made peace with the reality & accepted himself & is moving on. I love seeing Deku & Todoroki working together & seeing Deku being able to fight properly just makes me so proud! They have worked so hard to get here & will only keep getting better.

That was so lulzzzz when Todoroki was like uR msGs gOtTa hAve moRe deTaIls mIdorIyaaaaaaa

Iida tho, I wonder what he is going to do....it was nice that Todoroki noticed what Iida was going thru, he could relate to him.

Epic epic epic!!!!! Anyone else going to join in the fight?? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

The city is in chaos. Endeavour comes saves the couple. Gran Torino also sees him. Shoto And Deku fighting together was so intense! Stain's quirk is hard to master/use but if used correctly, it's very potent! C'mon Iida get up and show him your skills!

I was expecting a solo fight, but this works too.

All that "training" came to use. Finally, he can fight without breaking himself.

Even though endeavor is an asshole.I hope that his fight expanded in the anime.
ALSO MORE OF FULL COWLING IS ALWAYS APPRECIATED. Hero killer is really strong even if he is only fighting students he is tanking 5% of one for all punches and cuting through todorokis attacks like nothing.Todorokis internal monologue was great.

Wow Iida got a backup from Deku and unexpected Todoroki coming too to fight against Stain, which surprisingly had an interesting stain quirk. Endeavour can work as a decent hero too, huh?

The climax is after this, so yeah, let's skip the unnecesary, not even saying plus ultra, and be back to the action again for the next episode, shall we?

Such a great episode this one. The city is now overrun with the Nomus and quite frankly I think they might be a little stronger than the initial one from season one. Deku is finally putting Full Cowl to good use seeing as Tenya got downed by Stain really like how with Full Cowl it makes Deku extremely fast, pretty good reflexes and the like. And that smash to Stain’s face? Oh that was just satisfying to me plus it was a surprise attack as well.

So yeah Stain’s quirk is quite interesting. The blood curdle quirk. Basically whoever he’s come into contact with, he can use your blood type against you and can leave you paralysed for amount of time it could be a short or a long time depending on what your blood type is. Hell yeah Todoroki’s joined the fray as well! Let’s go! And it looks like he’s also made amends with his mum as well which is great to hear considering what the both of them went through in the past. I honestly wasn’t expecting him to show up when Deku sent his distress signal but I was genuinely surprised when that happened. And man they make a great team as well facing off against Stain like that. Come on Tenya, ya gotta get up and join ‘em! You can do it!

Stain is a really cool villain, but felt kinda underutilized this episode. I expected a really good fight between Stain and Iida but Iida was laying on the ground for 75% of the episode. Midoriya finally using One For All was really cool tho.
