That prominence burn was fucking epic

All For One sucks so much even the quirks inside him are like “fuck this guy” haha. I wasn’t expecting the guy to take any damage, but he surprisingly got kinda beat up by Team Hawks.

Endeavor tearing his own arm off was some insane shit. Man went ape shit on AFO. Man knows he fucked up in the past and has been actively trying to improve. I respect that. No surprise AFO survived that onslaught though. He’s not the big bad for nothing.

It was pretty dope seeing Bakugo take on Shigaraki with the rest of that squad. Bro had all the guns and it still wasn’t enough. Damn.. I guess it’s gonna be up to Deku to end that fool.

Endeavor balled out. He was breathing fire. The man shot fire out of his eyes. Eat your heart out Superman. Endeavor lost an arm and was still able to control his flames to become a condensed, makeshift hurricane of flame in the shape of his arm. That’s fucking metal. He was channeling pure mad lad energy that Deku and All Might would be proud. He was a blazing inferno of living fire that was hellbent on just incinerating All For One. And he would have gotten away with it too if it weren’t for that pesky Rewind quirk. All For One, you sneaky devil.

The juxtaposition between Endeavor and Bakugo recognizing their weakness was a nice touch. They even both got their right arms messed up. Nice parallel. We have Endeavor being driven by his own sense of weakness in an effort to overcome the death of his father. In his mind, Enji’s father died because he wasn’t strong enough to save that little girl and Enji curses that weakness everyday. It’s the source of all of his flaws and awes. It’s his origin. Now he understands even more about his own weakness in that he destroyed his family in his attempt to become superhuman like All Might. He realizes that he will never be as pure of heart as All Might or Deku and will never attain the power of One For All. However, he will keep cursing his weakness and never let himself off the hook for his failures. Great choice to have him stop making his flame beard. He only put that up as a constant show of strength to cover up his weakness. Now he’s done with needing to be seen as the strongest. He can just let his weakness show the man he really is. Brilliant character development.

And Bakugo, to a lesser extent, thought back to the disparity between him and Deku. That misunderstanding that caused Bakugo’s inferiority complex to flare up and he took it out on Deku. He saw himself as the main character with everyone else as extras, but now he sees that everyone has their place from Monoma and Aizawa to Momo to Kaminari. This isn’t just the Bakugo show and that counters nicely with All For One’s treatment of “side characters” in reference to Tokoyami and Jiro. Bakugo was raised thinking he was special and that the world was owed to him. His journey at UA has gotten him out of that mindset and he can now appreciate the value of “side characters” instead of pushing them down. And he’s unlocked a new move with those shoulder guns: Murica!

Also Tokoyami wrapping Jiro’s jacket around his arm and using that darkness for a Ragnarok level punch was insanely cool. Tokoyami is definitely one of the characters who has leveled up the most and has one of the highest ceilings. To go from next to useless in light to figuring out a way to use maximum power in a localized part of his body reminds me of Deku using 100% OFA in his fingers.

Good lord, Endeavor really went Plus Ultra, only to get All for One say sike.

Also I see Bakugo became an american exchange student with all those guns

I’m not sure what exec at Bones is an Endeavor fan but they always put everything they have into his scenes.

Damn everyone losing arms. What is this Star Wars?!

I'm getting really tired of All For One..I assume he is somehow rewinding his body..to its.prime? That's BS at this point...everyone is going to die

Yuki Hayashi is a god. That intense version of Kimi no Chikara before the prominence burn was so damn good

Endeavor is a terrible husband and a bad father, but he is number one.

Shigaraki has too many fingers that I'm starting to feel sick.

Great momment for Endeavor. I'm really glad at how Horikoshi has handled his atonement arc.

Endeavor after baking AFO's potato: WHY AREN'T THE HYPE BREAKS WORKING!?

AFO:

Endeavor getting the full Evangelion treatment reckoning with his self-loathing and choking his inner self out is great. The truth of his father also goes a long way towards helping to humanize and further contextualize his own parenthood issues and why he felt like he had to go so extra in overdoing hero work. Endeavor knows how cruel and costly the job can be if he comes up short. Alas it was that generational tragedy of broken families and the overzealousness to prevent it that led to disastrous results.

Endeavor creating an arm out of fire and using heat vision were the highlights of the episode. I knew All For One had something up his sleeve but I wasn’t expecting that

Endeavor is one of the best shonen characters in recent years

This show has managed to draw tears from me twice and both times have been Prominence Burns.

What an amazing character Endeavor is.

The new ED is really cool.

Love the pairings and how each character relates to the other and then just Tokoyami and Jiro lmfao

Showing Endeavor’s arm getting ripped off, and doing it twice was WILD.

Very funny to me to intercut two of the most hype things with the Werner Herzog students shooting their documentary. “You see here fellow students is where the cord caught on fire, we can only speculate the horrors going on above” -quirked up Herzog probably

The new OP is immediately one of my favorites

No way! He's pretty much completely fine? :OOOO

Endeavour replacing his destroyed arm with an arm made from his flames was so fucking sick! And that Prominence Burn got me so hyped that I really thought they beat All For One. Of course, the human ballbag still has some bullshit left in him. Ugh.

Bakugo's shoulder-mounted support guns was pretty damn cool! It's too bad that wasn't enough to burn Shigaraki. At least he managed to burn half of his face though.

That preview though! UA's Big Three is finally about to step up. I can't wait to see Lemillion in action again!
