Damn there were alot of things in this episode I would like to talk about.
First off the part about Uraraka's backstory, was it new? Because I can't remember the scenes from the manga.
And the sports festival is finally happening yessssss. This season is 25 episodes huh *~*

Recap lasted kind of long, but other than that I'm exited to get back into this show's way longer second season!!

When I first watched the OP, didn't like it as much. Watched another 10 times after that aaand yeah, I'm starting to like it now.

Iida's over the top hand movements. Amazing XD
I'd say they are just as over the top as the manga.


Baby Ochako is adorable <3
Alright, so next episode, near the end of that anyway, we'll finally be starting the tournament.


I just hope this season ends at around Chapter 70, which mean basically 2 chapters per episode.

Truly disappointing first episode. Nothing happened. Almost half of it recap.

I like the new opening, with everyone stretching and looking up to the sky. It's kind of cliche but charming. The whole OP completely embraces the tournament arc, I wonder if it will really last for the entirety of the first cour.

Uraraka getting more attention is always nice, and it seems like Deku will be forced to up his game even more.

I heard that the animation is even more expressive than in the first season, and I can sort of see it. Urararaka and Iida are definitely even more visibly energetic.

While it's true that a significant part of the episode was recap, the reused cuts were mixed in with new ones, and they came up naturally through conversations, so there was still effort put into it. On the other hand, perhaps it's better to consider this episode as the "0'th" of the second season.

Nice reintroduction to the show, I really needed it since I haven't started the manga yet. The OP song is a bit lame IMO and I liked the previous season's better, but the ED was very heartwarming and enjoyable. The animation quality is very nice and smooth and I hope it remains such for the rest of the season.

Aah so hyped to watch this :D Good first episode.

So I've just realised something. All Might originally meant to pass his power on to someone at the academy. But you need a quirk to get into the academy right? So is this a mistake, or can you have more than one quirk? Or does it just simply overwrite the old quirk?

Well this season sure starts slow now doesn't it? I guess we couldn't expect them to go all out straight again after the huge finale of season 1.

Aside from that... OH YIIISSSS it's going to a tournament arc and I freakin love those!

And also... the new oepning sucks so much balls.

So i was waiting for the 25 episodes to be aired because well, i knew i would love to binge watch the latest season of one of my favorite shounen anime.

Not that i'm a big fan of the shounen genre, but this series doesn't disappoint.

So we are getting the school vibes with that sports festival setting. Bring it on! :3

Awww loli Ochako was soooo cuuuuute! >w<

Sport festival sounds a lot like Chuunin Exam arc in Naruto, which was easily one of my favourites, can't wait to see creative and fun fights in BnHA as well <3

Other than that too much of a recap, but it's a first episode so I don't mind that much. Didn't really like new opening/ending though :/

Ohh how the series have grown! I remember disliking the beginning of the manga, and then the anime, but remember growing fond of the latter parts, and now it's becoming really good. Moments like the end of this episode is why I watch shounen, it's for that really cool scenes where the protagonist claims the moments as his own.

Excited for the UA sports festival.

Omg I missed it so much and I finally got time to watch the second season. Great start. It got me directly back into the Boku no Hero World.

A lot of interestings things we saw and heard. I really want to see the master of All Might and what kind of a guy he is. Can't believe Aizawa-san isn't in bed and instead came into the class and talked about an sports festival. That seems to be interesting especially because everyone has a chance of getting attention of all the pro heros.

Young Ochako was so cute. She has an pretty honorable goal even if it's way different compared to the goal of Midoriya and Co.

Poor All Might. He just has 50 Minutes left per day to be a hero :(
And it's true. A lot of villains know about this. So it's definitely time that he gets replaced by someone. His speech to Deku at the end gave me chills, even if Deku looked super nervous and uncertain what I can't blame him for.

Can't wait to see what will happen at the sports festival. PLUS ULTRA!!!!!!!!!

Edit: I like the new OP and ED. Both are pretty catchy!

Why does Ochaco tend to spit up milk when she's excited or something like when she said "That's adorable!" when All Might offered her to eat lunch with him. lol I watch the dub I odn't know what she said in the sub.

Ochako's reason for becoming a hero is actually a great one. So this will be a tournament arc, very interesting. Those are usually the best ones in shounen anime :3

op is nice, but i laughed at the "everybody stretching" sequence. liked the day better, but this is nice too.

the all mighty letter was a nice touch to the obligatory first episode flashback and the episode felt like an introduction, but it's the first one after a year the first season ended, so i don't know why people complained so much about it.
ua tournament, come come.

First of all, I love the new OP better than the first season's. And the ED is just beautiful and makes me want a HeroAca spin-off with just the girls.

One of the strong points of this show is all the various, interesting characters in Deku's class and their interactions with each other. I don't really care much for Ochaco's character (I much prefer Tsuyu and pink alien girl), but I love that we got to see some expansions on her character. It's kind of heartbreaking to think that she mainly wants to be a hero to save her family from an agonizing, exhausting work life.

I'm curious about this upcoming sports festival. I bet it'll be in the form of a tournament or something, like we see in the OP. But this tournament already feels exciting because it's a big-time opportunity for the students to progress in their future careers. (Reminds me of how, say, in college basketball, the teams that make deep runs in the end-of-season tournament are more likely to get noticed by professional scouts simply because they're in the spotlight longer).

The second season started immediately after the first one and it was spectacular and I can tell that I'll definitely enjoy this as much as I did when I read these parts in the manga for the first time and very possibly even more so this time around.

The teachers were assessing how much of a threat the League of Villains are to the safety of their students and came up with the conclusion that Facepalm Man is just a manchild gone bad. Even with the whole USJ incident, they can't afford to cancel the prestigious UA Sportsfest that's essentially the most useful hero recruitment drive out there. All Might's real name being revealed and the first appearance of his old master made me very excited about seeing their past together.

As usual, I loved the playful character interactions with each other. Ochako's reasons might not have been as grandiose as what people usually think about hero backstories but the sentimentality of it was really touching and admirable, adding to her comical determination earlier.

I'm gonna have to warm up to the opening but I like that the ED is a waifu gallery.

The OP and ED are good, just like the first season.

The OST is also awesome. I have some goosebumps in certain scenes due to the background music.

The episode is great.

We get to see Ochaco's backstory. She plans to become a hero for the money due to financial problems. Her motive may not be impressive, but it is great to see that some heroes are pursuing realistic goals.

Ochaco is cute.

Episode was amazing, the ending really shined for me.

All might telling Deku he would have to become the hero of peace, man its only Deku first year and he already has to become the protector of the world, wonder how that feels?

Everything else was also well done, I like the new OP, the ending song might not be my cup of tea but its alright.

Little Uraraka was so kawaii! And she seems so fired up. The reason why she joined UA isn't as flashy as others, but it's still admirable. I wonder how will the sports event will go.
