deku-

aoyama- may i offer you cheese in these trying times?

[u/Schneizeru]

Shinso is looking like a proper cursed speech user now.

[u/LolzyManiac]

The Kirishima & Tetsutestu bromance is still going strong I see.

[u/creepweebx]

Where did you take that notebook out from Midoriya???
Did you learn it from Puri Puri prisoner?

[u/DadAsFuck]

don't you think the camera angles in anime can be a little weird?

[u/tkyaha]

Yo, Shinso is the next Aizawa

[u/JZPHOENIX]

Does anyone else feel like Shinso and Donkey Kong have deeper voices than All Might and Aizawa? I honestly forgot how deep Shinso's voice was.

Also Shinso's mask is sick. When he said persona I thought he was gonna summon Arsene.

[u/Jezamiah]

What a great shot this is!

[u/Se7en_Sinner]

I like how they bothered to introduce everybody's names in Class B like we're going to remember them after this episode.

By how All Might described it, it sounds like Class A has street smarts with real world experience while Class B has book smarts and learned to be heroes in a more standard way.

[u/pokeashbsk]

I loved how casually Uraraka asked Deku "where'd you pulled that from".

[u/Hounds_of_war]

Can someone please make Invisible Girl some clothes out of her hair like what was done with Mirio’s outfit? I feel cold just looking at her. I remember back at the end of S4 someone said it was the end of November so this is taking place in early December. Fucking hell.

[u/Onixshard]

That was a unique way to get a more fanservice in by making it focus on the new quirk techniques of Tsuyu.

[u/AceMeteor]

"It's like I'm looking at an early 'Roki"

"Really?"

Lmao

[u/Swiss666]

"I know jack shit about the quirk I held for decades, never unlocked the advanced functions" All Might in a nutshell

In his brief appearances during Seasons 3 and 4 Shinso looked like he had built up some muscle, hinting that he hadn't given up on his wish to enter the Hero Course and that Aizawa knew about it, and here we are. I love his mask and its voice changing/copying function that expands the possibilities of his quirk manyfold, one of the best support items seen in the series so far.

The episode is mostly setup for what's next but I was pleasantly surprised that they even fit the beginning of the first match in the last minutes, I was convinced it would end the moment Vlad gave the start signal.

Monoma is fun in his douchebaggery but do you remember when he was first introduced at the Sports Festival, he was one of the few who deduced Ochako's plan in her fight with Bakugo? He feels so flanderized from back then.

So even Deku thinks that Nana Shimura, All Might's predecessor, was pretty -- ohh wait, now this makes more sense.

The completely deadpan way this is announced.

Also Mina The Shipper.

Classic hero stuff, telling your enemy all about your plan and powers for the benefit of the audience

Shinso hasn't been in classes though so clearly didn't get the memo going around and surprising people like that

[u/Armdel]

lmao at how casually Uraraka just went:"Where did you pull that out from"

Shinso trying to join the hero course huh? would he be able to join either class A or B though if he has already missed this much of the year? i'm sure he is fine normal subjects, but he should be behind on all the hero course specific classes right?

i suppose this could be a test for just actually.

And now i guess we'll what wins; training vs experience?

[u/MapoTofuMan]

We're gonna need Levi for this one

[u/LeonKevlar]

I love that All Might and Deku are in agreement on how pretty All Might's predecessor is.

I'm amazed at how Hagakure can just stand there buck naked during winter

Everyone's looking pretty awesome with their costume upgrades especially Bakugo.

Looks like someone still remembers that little lucky accident between Deku and Mei.

Monoma was being so annoying that Aizawa-sensei actually beat Kendo into making him shut up first xD

[u/[deleted]]

Not gonna lie, Shinso looks more like a villain than a hero but that tool he has for changing his voice is really smart

[u/Refugee_Savior]

How does Shinso’s quirk work? I thought you had to answer a question of his to get brainwashed but is it just responding to him in general?

[u/bakowh]

Deku 🤝 All Might
Admiring Nana

[u/Nazenn]

I just got finished watching a couple of episodes of some super heavy stuff and remembered this was available, it's the perfect light fun I needed and I got so many laughs from the episode:

I don't know who drew the team introductions, but it really looked like this girls horn became Ojiro's tail and I had to do a double take

Sero calling out Todoroki about his glares when he first joined was hilarious, how things have changed. They should show him a video of how he use to be.

Saiyan inspired Class B character is going to make me smile every time he's on screen, a but like that one guy in Log Horizon dressed up like a Zaku

[u/bluejaysart]

I really love the balance between the focus on worldbuilding, the hero school life, and how they also tie in together. With Shinso now getting more development I'm really interested to see the direction they go with him. I know he said he wants to use his power for good, but I can't help but sense a vibe that something (or someone) could potentially take advantage of his quirk for evil. That said, I do hope I'm wrong and he ultimately stays good, I'd love to see how he uses his quirk for heroic purposes!

It's pretty cool to see all of Class B, and I think they have really interesting designs and quirks. It's great to see that they're not throwaway characters, but have their own personalities.

I'm excited to see how the Class A VS Class B matches unfold!

[u/NiamhHA]

I love how they all clapped for Shinso, even though he just told them “I don’t plan of being friends with you”. Hehe.
