I loved this episode when it aired. So thrilling and bone chilling ending with Deku realizing it was his turn to do the heavy lifting. This anime honestly reminds me of the Amazing Spider-Man so much sometimes. Looking back at episode 4 when Deku fought Muscular it reminded me of when Peter Parker gets crushed and calls for help but ends up realizing he is a hero and needs to do his job. So amazing. Love Deku’s character and the voice acting and animation is always top quality, especially when it matters.

Oh my gosh... So many things in this episode just got to me. For a moment, I actually felt like I was there amongst all those civilians, getting teary-eyed and crying as we watched All Might fight with all he had...

Man, this has got to be the best episode in this season of MHA.

This is probably the most emotional episode of anime I have ever seen. Bones did a phenomenal job in conveying that emotion. Top notch animation and sound design. Miyake Kenta brought All Might to life. Episode 12 and 49 really fleshed out All Might's character in the best possible way and the whole fight is an overwhelming emotional narrative for All Might's character. This is how you do an OP character correctly for this fight was so nail bitingly intense. This episode alone brought the whole season up to 11.

All Might's final fight against All For One was packed full of raw emotion and I couldn't help but get overwhelmed by it multiple times throughout the episode. From All Might despairing over finding out that he couldn't save his master's grandson from defecting to the path of evil to the people still rooting for him to win as the Symbol of Peace even when his secret's gone out, I've teared up so much and that UNITED STATES OF SMASH was too glorious to watch without feeling anything.

Can't believe that I didn't feel this much feels when I first read the manga. It's the end of All Might and only Deku knew who his last message's intended for.

I've been completely rewatching My Hero Academia in preparation for the fourth season literally since the day season three ended, and I've been waiting for this episode the entire time, and it was so worth it. It's the perfect time to watch this episode too, as it has been almost exactly one year since it aired. This episode, even upon rewatch, holds up just as amazingly, if not more so, than it did when I first watched it. Everything about it is a masterpiece, from the voice acting (I watch the sub), the animation, the soundtrack, everything. This episode managed to make me more emotional than the likes of A Silent Voice and Your Name.. I'm sure I'm in the minority with that opinion too, but I believe this is one of the best episodes of My Hero Academia, Shounen, and anime as a whole. Truly beautiful. This kind of emotional power won't be topped for a long time, althoug I suspect the...
...will get pretty close.

I love when I rewatch something and it is even better then I remembered. This arc is officially one of the best executed arcs I've seen in anime alongside both arcs from SNK S1, Hunter x Hunter Chimera Ant final battle and SNK S3 part 2. I easilly can give this part a 10/10. It is indeed so sad the next arc was a 6/10, and it's even more sad the director won't give too much focus on S4 (S4 will have 2 directors now because Kenji Nagasaki, the director of MHA so far, will focus on making the new movie, so in order for him to focus on that, they hired one more director for S4).

Also, maybe this arc is the reason why I hate this current obsession and absurd praise KnY is receiving. The show did not have a single moment (not even on episode 19) that could reach even the slightest quality of this arc from MHA and right now, it's getting the praise this arc should have had. Kind of makes me think if animation is the only thing people care in this website

I feel like this fight holds up to Third vs Orochi. It has similar emotional impact and now creates a ceiling to surpass for the main cast. The animation was especially good this fight; every impact frame delivered huge blows with the intensity of the situation and physical strain on the combatents being executed flawlessly aided by heavy, gashing strokes across the momentum carried.

Definitely a top-tier fight!

I never have any fear for Deku's life because we get told at the start of each episode that he becomes the strongest hero, but the tension and stakes are there for everyone else to potentially be a red shirt.

This was super well animated, and All Might really toughed it out. I can't deny I got a bit emotional.

"Now it's your turn..." uhh, right in the gut

This fight is my favourite fight in anime period. Sooo many emotions all in one fight and the huge meaning behind the importance of this fight makes it all the better. Everything I love about MHA was in this fight. One for All, All for One, Epic Smash moments, emotional AF scenes. My Hero Acadamia is my favourite shounen/action anime because of these things and this right here is the pinnacle of My Hero Acadamia. (At least so far and probably for a long time to come)

But shit, that final scene makes me cry like a bitch everytime. Like it is right now. Its such a sad scene. All Mights done, his career as a top hero is over. Deku will never be able to fight alongside him and he'll never be able to protect people like he once could. Such an emotional scene and it REALLY hits hard.

Since this point MHA has never reached this level. But I guess thats understandable. How do you compete with All Might the strongest Hero ever Vs All for One, the strongest villain ever.

This fight is the reason season 3 is a genuine 10/10 for me. And all the smash moments too. But holy shit the soundtrack!!!! GODLY SOUNDTRACK!!!!

Holy shit, what an epic episode! It's rare that I'm rooting like crazy for one of the main characters and this fight couldn't have turned out better. The composition of animation, art and sound was just superb, definitely one of the best fights I have seen in anime so far. That last powerup was also hella epic, "United States of..." Wait, he won't say America, will he? "...SMASH!" Daaaaaaamn, so good. Most likely the best BnHA episode thus far and there are a lot of great ones.

Really intense episode!

It's too bad All For One survived, surely he's done enough evil over the years to warrant an automatic kill on sight for all heroes.

All Might has no power left. At least he survived. It's kind of crushing though, we never saw him in action much and we won't get to hear his theme play anymore. Midoriya needs to step it up and start mastering his quirk, All Might can't ever save him again.

When it started I thought Izuku will be the best of all but now I see that All-might was really great. Toshinori's starting was like Izuku but he had a plan to make the society better. He wanted to complete the emptyness society had. He fulfilled it and kept doing it. This episode was the best till now. He did his best and further just like he says - Go beyond plus ultra! At least All for one should die in shame that he was trying to kill such a great man. Good thing is secret of One for all is safe and also Toshinori is alive. The symbol of peace lives.

So I was correct. Tomura shigaraki or Tenko Shimura is Nana Shimura's grandson. It went worst and painful. But there is some story left. The story how Tenko beocme Tomura and what made him. I hope Izuku can save Tenko from Tomura.

Absolutely beautiful.

All Might's weak true form was revealed, but the public, other heroes, his students, colleagues, friends - even Endeavour - accepted him for who he really was. A hero.

By far the best episode in My Hero Academia and one of my favourite episodes in all of anime. So many emotions in this episode. I cried from joy when All Might channeled One For All and won the day, and cried from sadness when the aftermath came. Re-watching this and it still gives such strong emotions.

Toshinori Yagi. What a hero. ALL MIGHT!!!!!!

A hero has many things to protect....indeed

I’m in tears. Fucking brilliant episode. Seriously. What the flying fuck was this episode. It was insanely immersive, I felt like I was there.

And seeing Kacchan that expressive for the first time, in that way. Wowie.

I cried with Deku too. I am so afraid for him. That’s way too much responsibility for a kid. He’ll have All Might with him but he’s going to shoulder literally everything from here on. I can’t even begin to fathom how he feels. Those tears.......I think even Kacchan knew something is up.







but i’ll probably remember over and over again

Fabulous, outstanding, amazing, I don't know which word to use. This episode was just brilliant! All for One's face is unsightly. That modified arm he made was hideous looking. Great to know about AllMight's master and young Gran Torino. The action was just amazing. Looks liked they have now managed to restrain All For One and now the League of Villains is separated from him. AllMight may retire now, since he doesn't hold One for All anymore. I'm curious to know how did One For All know Deku is the successor of One For All?? Does he have some mind reading quirk too?
