----------------------------------------
Welp we're on our penultimate episode of season 2 and the time has come at last for Young Izuku to face All Might. And unfortunately he has to do so with Bakugo, imo the douchiest, most obnoxious character in the series. But hey, let's see WHY young Bakugo is such a douche. Oh, what's that? Absolutely no good reason at all? Okay then, sure. Well I did at least get an enormous amount of pleasure from seeing All Might make him spew. That was awesome, we need more of that! :D Well anyway young Izuku was able to shine either way, and All Might did show off some appropriately nice feats of power. So even with Bakugo tainting it I'd still say this was a good episode. And hey, they passed! Now only one week left though. Already beginning to feel sad at the long wait before what I hope and assume will be season three next year.

This episode showed once again why Bakugou is such a great character.

All Might's power is insane! Poor Midoriya and Bakugou got completely destroyed.

I like how All Might noted how Midoriya and Bakugou were keeping building damage low with their big plan.

I hope we get a season 3 so we can see more of her.

The fight endly how i imagined, but it was full of surprises, although the character i more surprised me was Bakugo, if Deku is advance in this hero "race" (to be a great hero), Bakugo walk to the same rythm!!!! how power, how feelings!!!!

10/10 for this episode!!!

IMO the fight itself felt kinda underwhelming. I expected a bit more to compensate my staying up overnight, but oh well. I'm glad we got an introduction to some of the new villains though, and as always, I'll be hoping for a s3 next year.

The animation was honestly a bit of a disappointment but still a nice episode. Besides, I got what I was waiting for.






Midoriya vs Todoroki was the highlight of the season. Here's hoping for season 3 as it would adapt my favorite arcs and fights.

Probably because the season is ending and they have to prepare for Blood Blockade Battlefront & Beyond next season. Can't just pour all your animation resources into 1 show now can you?

No, that was the 5% punch. Nothing indicated that it was more than that. Pretty sure All Might can't tank a whole lot of 100% punches in the state that he is in, and this one only moved his face

Great character in the sense that he's really good at making you absolutely hate him, sure. But he's completely irredeemable. Everything about him screams villain, and I'd be pretty disappointed if he doesn't turn out to become a villain himself a la Stain.

Whooo! that was intense I'm sweating!

First of all I would like to say, All might is so damn brutal! LOL! Deku and Kachann had it rough compared to the other students!
Even with the weights on, All might's power is just too overwhelming!

-Smol Kachann admiring all might! who would have thought he's an all might fan too!!!

-"One small step for a man but a giant leap for kachann" XD Well it was expected that Kachann is gonna be a pain in the ass from the start but this episode proves us that HE IS “Bakugrowing” little by little.

Kudos to Deku for putting Bakugou to his senses and not leaving him! But, I gotta hand it most to Kachann on this test, He worked out for a plan and cooperated with Deku! He put so much resolve and has exerted all his energy taking down all might, and got knocked out in the end just to let Deku escape. For a character like him, he did an AWESOME job!!!

and notice the veins on bakugou's arms!!!

-GOOD TEAMWORK MY BOYS!

TOGA AND DABI at the end. oh boy!

Dude what are you smoking, it was established from the very beggining that Bakugou wants to become the greatest hero, and it's being brought up over and over again. There is literally no way that he'll become a villain.

All Might went hard during this exam, totally wrecking Bakugou and Deku. Even with his powers weakening, they could still barely do jack shit against him. That final punch from Deku didn't even move All Might, and the only reason they made it across the finish line was because he couldn't continue. The teamwork between Deku and Bakugou wasn't pretty, but their skills are improving, and hey, at least they passed.

It really sucks that we're approaching the final episode so soon, hopefully season 3 comes fast so we can see more of the 2 new characters at the end (as well as the epicness of the next arc).

I think it also has to do with the source material not being nearly as good. Didn't read the manga tho, so I'm not sure.

There is a scene that surpasses Deku vs Todoroki by a lot which will happen in Season 3, definitely the highlight of the manga so far. I expect it to cover 2-2.5 episodes of Season 3, but these will imo be by far the best episodes of the anime once they air, as long as the animation stays the same as during this season. Plus the recent events in the manga are also slightly above Deku vs Todoroki level, they come close to what will happen in Season 3, but they won't happen in the anime until Season 4.

I was pretty damn convinced that we all watched the show just for "the Bakugo moments"!

All the other characters are just made to make Bakugo shine more.

Midoriya and Bakugo really had it rough with their exam fight against All Might. I'm glad that All Might didn't hold back, but seeing him landing heavy punches on the two of them made the fight even more intense and savage.

Midoriya and Bakugo might be the polar opposites of each other, but at last, they had some sort of teamwork going as they aimed to escape through the gate. Bakugo really went all out, but he was recklessly breaking his bones doing so and All Might did the right thing to knock him unconscious to prevent him from doing more harm to his body.

Then Midoriya came to the rescue, landed a solid punch on All Might, got Bakugo and escaped through the gate successfully. Nicely done! =D

The animation wasn't on the same level as the Midoriya vs Todoroki fight back in episode 10, but Bones still did a pretty good job overall. =)

Only one episode left and the preview for it looks happy, but also pretty tense as well. Looking forward to it! ^_^

Okay but seriously. It was everything I wanted in the voice acting and the scene spotlight, especially the young Izuku and Katsuki which was pretty vital. I'm hoping for some touch ups on the blu-rays for some inconsistent shots. But other wise 10/10.

also bakugou getting his shit wrecked 1000000000/10.

I really like the emotions poured into this episode. Bakugo's VA did a great job at protraying his character and I felt emotionally moved.

Ofc, he had trouble working with Deku with his personality.
The action of those two in the end paid off and I have to admit, the momentum of the episode was done pretty well from start to finish.

League of Villians....I really hope this means we're getting a third season announcement soon. I mean, Season 2 was revealed at the end of S1's finale so anything is possible.

We got villain league hype for season 3, and an amazing fight before this season's last episode. Bakugo's VA really showed how well he can play his character, and he was just such a freaking savage! No matter what, Bakugo will allways fight until he breaks every bone in his body. One thing that him and Deku have in common, I guess.

Also, that ending with Deku being Deku really shows that no matter how dangerous the situation is, he will allways help those in need, and I can't wait to see that in one of his season 3 fights (you manga readers know what i'm talking about).

Boy oh boy this season has been so much better than season 1. Now the million dollar question: Will we get a Season 3 announcement next week? I don't mind waiting, but it would be pretty neat.

This was a good episode, everything I expected from the match-up between Deku and Bakugo and All Might.

The only problem I have is that this show has, for some odd reason, fallen into the trap of having characters describe everything that's happening.

We have eyes, we can see it, we don't need to be told what's going on.

Other than that, still a great anime.

That was nicely adapted by Bones. Midoriya and Bakugou vs. All Might was really fun. All Might wrecking the two was fun to see. I'm glad that he didn't go easy on them. As for Bakugou, he's still an aggressive asshole, but he's not wrong about anything. He's got a whole lot of ambition (and ego) and overall, I understand his point and everything. The part where Midoriya uses Bakugou's stored up sweat to attack All Might was pure hype.

Honestly, I don't get how the animations are disappointing when it was on the same level as Midoriya vs. Todoroki. It was just the last 30 seconds that had some mindblowing animations (thanks to Nakamura), but the rest of the fight was animated just as well, if not slightly worse than this episode. Considering the large scale of the fight and the characters having more movement, animating this episode requires more effort than episode 10. For example, right after when Deku got his back broken, Bakugou glides all the way to their position and Bones really had to draw out a good chunk of background for that part (in comparison to Episode 10, where there's not much background to animate).

He let them win, just like Aizawa let Todoroki and Momo win. All Might could have easily stopped them, but he chose not to.

The fight wasn't as spectacular as I expected, but, considering how powerful All Might is (and he wasn't fighting 100% either), both Deku and Bakugou ended doing a very good job.
I also lost my shit the moment All Might hits Deku's back and he let that scream escape, it sounded hilarious.

Hope they made a 3rd season, especially to see if that villain girls is as good as people say she is.

He was also out of time that he could be in that form (as evidenced by the steam coming off of him) so he couldn't have chased them if he wanted to.

Awesome episode, animation in the second half was amazing. Bones delivering as always.

Loved how Deku and Bakugou were forced to put aside their issues and cooperate to win.

All Might's eyes are always so damn cool. xD

I love how this episode showcases the amount of conviction Bakugou has, about winning only the way he chooses and that he'll never accept something different. That moment when he murmurs that in a half dead voice while All Might is holding him is so damn powerful. I'd even call it sorta of inspirational since sticking to your convictions is one of the things you must do no matter what. Bakugou is one of the best examples of that even if he comes off as a jerk at times.

Also loved it when Deku went back to get Bakugou from All Might, his naive heroism is what I love about him the most and I always love seeing that trait in action. All Might watching the two as they escape was nice, he definitely was in a super weakened state but I like to think he let them win since they learnt their lesson.

Soundtrack was off the charts as usual and they even played 'You can become a Hero'. <3

Great roundup to the arc with Deku's little narration and now let's move onto an interesting little encounter next episode and a hopeful S3 announcement.
