THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Mora's quirk isn't really impressive imo.

It looks like Uraraka remembers about Himiko since their previous encounter. Not sure how I feel about the comedy this episode as it feels a bit underwhelming. However, I will say this was an okay development episode. It's super obvious that Uraraka has feelings towards Deku by this point.

Bakugo is still amusing to watch as usual. Lol, Mineta misunderstanding about Deku and Cammie. It'll be interesting to see what Deku wil do next time as a hero. Also kinda interesting to see Gang Orca show up.

Lol, Mineta and Denki were so funny.

I hope the ship between Uraraka and Midoriya won't disappear.

A pretty meh episode until the introduction of the "villains", but it's interesting to see the different things needed for a good rescue.

Let's see how it goes next episode.

That was good. The little bits of extra content for the other characters was a nice touch.

But filler next week? Why? We're in the middle of something here. They even limited it to so few characters...

A very mediocre episode but it really couldn't be helped when the only thing heroes did would rescue 'citizens'. I'm not blaming the writers for including it since it makes sense for heroes to undergo rescue exercises but it isn't entertaining content.

Atleast now with the heroes having to also fight villains whilst rescuing citizens, now it should be bit more interesting when they get back to this.

Mineta and Denki were pretty funny when messing with Deku regarding seeing Camie naked.

Next week is a filler episode, not excited for that shit at all tbh.

Always liked those H.U.C. guys, they are hilarious how they suddenly dropped the act to critisize the students rofl But Bakugou was hilarious as always there. Mineta and Kaminari are overly jealous of Deku having "moments" with Camie lol Also, love Gang Orca's entrance and especially the villainous design he has. Anyway, I'm not excited for a filler episode next week. Feels quite random right now and I guess this is where we will see that anime original guy in the OP's beginning I guess.

Really good episode as always. I liked how they expanded on the tasks of a hero with the various procedures that need to be undertaken during a rescue. He haven't seen much of a hero's responsibility other than just fighting villains. It'll be interesting to see how the students will apply these knowledge in future arcs.

Great Episode!

It’s a little different from all the previous episodes, as it focuses on an Winfrey different theme, the act of Rescuing. I must say, though, those professionally trained dummies were hilarious to watch. Deku had to face one peculiar one, but at least it helped him snap back to reality. Bakugou is just not cut out for this kind of an exam, so I can only imagine he’ll jump right into action from the get-go. Villains appearing in the end, and Gang Orca’s entrance, was pretty cool. I especially loved how the commentator made sure to add that he’s third among the heroes who look like villains. Comedy of the episode was on point too.

Next epsiode seems to be like a Special Episode, what a time! Lol, I’m still looking forward to it nevertheless.

Filler next week, not a fan therefore will skip. This arc in general (so far) feels very underwhelming after the events of the previous arc. Another thing i would love is if this series would at least try to distance itself from the arc formats it has used ever since its conception, namely the training and tournaments arcs.

Why did they have to put a filler next week.. I was really looking forward to the rest of the test. Knowing how Deku instinctively helps others and makes good decisions in dire situations, I'm sure that we would've gotten an epic episode where Deku shines, outperforms Shinketsu High students and wows the other participants and spectators. That's just my speculation though, I haven't read the manga.

This episode was quite boring though as some have said already. Nothing really happened here and the only exciting part in my opinion was the "Villain Attack" at the end. I was disappointed with this episode. Well, at least there will be AoT tomorrow lol

I didn't expect there to be this much focus on Uraraka's feelings towards Izuku. I wonder if it will play an important role in the future.

Oh, this is getting exciting. I expect some nice action scenes to play out, especially with Gang Orca. It's a shame that we'll have to wait until episode 21 though. Tbh, the next episode looks very boring.

This episode did drag on a bit, but I don't think it's as bad as some other users here are saying. Mind you, I haven't read the manga at all, so my opinion probably won't have much weight to it, I guess. =/

The pro victims sound pretty stingy for their constant points deductions, but they did have a point about the best approach to rescuing a victim and how efficient a team needs to operate to waste as little time as possible. However, Bakugo seems to be the exception to that, telling the victims his team are rescuing to 'Save Yourselves!', which was funny, but when they deducted points for his attitude, that only got Bakugo more pissed off. His reaction to that was really hilarious! XD

Gang Orca's arrival as the 'villains' for the test looks to be really exciting. Sadly, next week will be a filler episode instead and by the looks of the preview, it doesn't seem to be as promising of Tsuyu's filler episode last season. I'll watch it, of course, but it probably won't be as good as I hope it'll be...

Not the most eventful episode, but it set things up nicely for the rest of the arc. It's great that we get to see these students undergo rescue operations that they'll deal with later on in their hero careers, although Bakugo should probably try fixing his attitude sooner rather than later.

It's unfortunate that next week's episode is a filler, but what can you do......I'll just look forward to endless complaints, despite them having the decency to announce it ahead of time (meaning, you know you can skip the episode if you don't want to watch it).

Decent little setup for this rescue training thing, and there was some good banter with Sero and such in the beginning.

I knew next weeks ep would be filler to connect to the movie, but I hoped they would make it fit into the current story better like they did with the Tsu episode. Well apparently next Saturday is some national charity day in Japan where they cancel regular broadcasting for special programs and such. So it was either a filler ep that fits the charities theme in some way or no ep.

Great episode as always.

Mineta and Kaminari picking on Deku was absolutely hilarious. XD

Professionals who's job is supposed to be rescued, talk about jobs. xD
Bakugou is not built for rescuing, him asking that couple to save themselves was pure gold. XD

Lot of focus and shots of Uraraka and her 'feelings', I don't recall it being stressed this much in the manga but I guess it's just that the anime is making it feel more powerful.

I personally don't mind the fillers in BnHA since Bones always do a great job with them but putting the filler in the middle of the arc will definitely make it feel a little off.

Pretty interesting episode, i enjoyed uraraka's struggles but my favorite was bakugo yelling at the people to save themselves. I was laughing so hard, but yeah episode wasn't that good as the past one, i got hyped when the villians came in tho... then the episode ended. Although i really wish uraraka would do something on her own, and not inspired by deku, but i guess that's kinda difficult as the whole narrative is centered around deku himself

This is one of my favorite parts in the manga, where they saved the HUC people and how savage some of them were. People tend to forget that heroes also save people and not just fight villains. I remember Tsuyu mentioning that she wants to focus on rescue operations more than direct combat.

That one cheeky HUC kid with the headphones makes me laugh with his voice. His voice fits him and doesn't fit him at the same time. It's too mature for him but because he's so cheeky, it does. He's my favorite HUC member. He DID impart valuable advice to the heroes in training. All Might always reassures people that he's saving that everything is alright, that and his strength, resolve, etc. made him the number one hero in the past.

Speaking of heroes who look like villains, Bakugo takes the cake for Class 1-A. LOL Gang Orca looks awesome and he's just so fucking cool.

Horikoshi is terrible at writing romance so I'm not on board with Ochako realizing her feelings for Deku because it's poorly written and awfully cliche.

That episode was pretty bad. Why was everyone standing around when they first saw the injured kid? No one even said a word.
There was a lot of standing around. Class 1A is probably just shit at saving people.

Uraraka, stop getting caught up over your feelings during an exam! Leave that for later. I thought that was a bit stupid.

I was looking forward to seeing what Gang Orca is going to do but next week is a special episode, I guess..

The anime is stretching this arc out so much . It wasn’t good in the manga but I didn’t expect the anime would make it even worse . I know why it’s dragging out but still atleast make it interesting ... and now we get a filler episode in the middle of the arc like we didn’t already get a bunch of filler like 2 episodes ago . This season as a whole just ain’t as good as season 2 .

It was a good episode but I agree at some point with some comments here. This arc isn't as exciting as I thought I would be. However, with the entrance of Gang Orca, I'm looking forward to the next (next) episode. I haven't noticed it before but his desing is quite good.

Well, it depend on whether the Ovas count as canon or not. If it's yes, then they've had some rescue exercises but of course, their knowledge isn't as much as the rest of the students from the other schools. Also, they all are first year students, I asume the subjects about "rescue" would be teach in second year or so, not very sure tho.
