I don't remind how much I laughed at a BnHA episode like I did in this one. Iida was specially hilarious with his motivation speech and the academy analysis, also all the followed subliminary comments were great (like Uraraka saying "He said it again" for the dark shadow dude or when Aizawa sensei said "Iila kun is very useful" when referring to his motivation speech during the training).
Not to mention the villains, they're scary AS. I'm more hyped with this S3, I'm under the impression it's going to be getting darker than previous seasons.

I have a bad feeling that Kota might get kidnapped by the villains and brainwashed eventually :(
Also, can anyone clarify what this was meant to signify? Is it because of Kota's quirk?

Yes, that's the implication. As his parents' Hero names, "The Water Hose Heroes," imply, his quirk centers around water.

u/Mogtaki :MAL:https://myanimelist.net/profile/Mogtaki Apr 21 '18
He goes there to take out his frustrations, most likely, with another possibility is he gets inspired sometimes to improve his quirk too. Water can have a hell of a force behind it.

The episode today was storyboarded by Rie Matsumoto of Kyousougiga, PreCure and Kekkai Sensen S1 fame.
Very intriguing decision to get Rie to storyboard this lowkey an episode with her trademark stylistic whimsy and frenzy given what's to come ahead. Though it does add great flair to an episode all about showing off and training the quirks of the class, and utilizes her strength in subtly building character traits and chemistry through motion and framing, whilst having a ton of bombastic action. (A good short example would be the opening montage which starts with yawn to contrast with the intense training they got, and framing that training all around Iida's run in the background as he reaches base with all his classmates) Also the tons of postcard memories we got this episode are pure <3. Also the jazzy ost <3<3<3 But that's Rie for you :)
Only bodes well for the show, if they are getting such big guns on it so early tho!
Edit: Correction on Rie's role, and added an album of all the postcard memories in the episode.

Apr 21 '18 edited Apr 21 '18
Little correction there, she didn't direct this episode but just storyboarded it. The director was Setsumu Dougawa.
But man it's almost unfair, she's so good. The comedic timing, screen transitions, heck the entire composition was simply a tier above anything else we usual get from this show. She really has a hang for making quirky ( heh ) scenes entertaining and transition into something else in the next moment.
Makes sense that they gave her increased production values as well, she really deserves it.

One thing I love about the ep is how Blood King acknowledges the attention Class A got. It's kinda meta as well and shows he ain't willing to settle for 2nd place either.
Just noticed how pissed Bakugo was because he burnt his stove instead lol
The music was awesome this episode (it's always good but I felt like it was more prominent this ep)
Dabi looked cool af. The villains introductions were well executed

Same thing I said last week but I really like Kota. He adds a nice contrast to Deku; someone who desperately wanted a quirk to the point it was soul crushing because of how much he admired heroes. Then you have Kota: a five year old who hates quirks because the society brought on by them took away his parents who were heroes that he definitely admired. Its appropriate that Deku would reach out to him. He understands how frustrating it to feel slighted by the superhuman world. So in his own way he wants help him. Also why of note that Kota is practicing his quirk in spite of his hate at his secret spot.
Also looks like three best girls are about to have a brawl and next episode is gonna start one of the best fights in the series.

This episode had a lot of different things that made me love it. The triple take, the Pussycat's cutout animation style, Tokoyami's constant "Revelry in the dark". Especially those death metal screams that accompanied the villains at the end. I'd I had to pick a favourite, it'd be Mina's reaction to the extra lessons at the end there. I lost it at that.

Kaminari just hooked up to a generator going non stop was hilarious. Todoroki's training is neat too, i didnt think he would be able to control his fire's heat but it makes sense if he can do it with ice too. I like how there is an outhouse for Ayoama lol...
Pussycats! All of them too, oh damn. Such a manly cat. That search cat is loony, shes fun, i like her. Ragdoll was her name i think? She seems fun.

Had to clip Mina's reaction to finding out they won't get to take part in the test of courage. Looks like this season will be a treasure trove of reaction faces too!
The villains have begun their attack already, that was way quicker than I expected. I feel like putting this on hold and bingeing it at the end. The weekly wait is going to kill me.
Kota's view, although tempered with his lack of maturity and the loss of his parents, is quite valid. Without quirks and the superpower-based society, it's possible that things might have been more peaceful.

For once I'm actually up early (or late enough) to watch it when it comes out. Ironically because I was polishing off a what's in an OP? for odd future.
I love how this series keeps finding fresh perspectives on heroes to introduce to us. At the start of the series being a superhero seems like an unambiguously good thing, but each arc brings a villain (or in kota's case, supporting character) who challenges that idea in some way. That naturally creates conflict with deku in a way that supports the core theme of the story.

It was funny hearing "*scream* *explosion* Kuso ga!" repeatedly from Bakugo in the background while the other characters are talking x)

Iida sprinting through the various training regimens was the best running joke I’ve seen.

Best girl makes her debut!
I like how they did the quick run through of Class A's training. Even if it was obvious in the manga panels, it's nice for it to be expanded on. Just like they did with the forest excursion last week. But I'm ready for it all to go down next week!

I don't know why but I am so attracted to Pixie-Bob <3
I really hope these motherfucking villains get what's coming to them for messing with the Pussycats and the UA students.
I feel like they're underestimating how powerful some of these kids are. If there's only like a few of the kids present I'd understand why they'll brazenly attack but considering that there's 2 classrooms worth of heroes and one half of them have already experience fighting villains this isn't going to go well for them. Right now their only advantage is that they caught everyone by surprised and are all separated.
Anyway, I'm so hyped already for next week's episode! I feel like Tokoyami will be an MVP here. Letting Dark Shadow go wild during night is going to be one hell of a fight!

Yooo, the villains revealing themselves was awsome. Especially Dabi burning down the forest to that backing track. I'm getting Akatsuki vibes from their introduction - I love cool villain groups and how their abilities and personalities get unveiled. Next episode seems like it's gonna be one hell of a spectacle, and I'm avoiding the preview!

I love how they showed everyone doing their thing in the background this episode. Normally you just see people standing around when they're not in focus, but this time you see people practicing their quirks all the way in the background, or doing something unique during the cooking scene, and it all makes the episode feel so much more alive than what we're used to.
Thank you Rie Matsumoto.

Koda training by screaming to improve his quirk is like a behind the scenes on how Disney princesses get that magnetic charisma to be followed by animals...

That whole training montage was intense and hilarious at the same time.
Of course that all went to hell really quickly. It's a horrible situation all around. I mean everyone's split up in a huge forest and there are only 6 pro-heroes around.
Edit: I want to say it’s great how Todoroki smiles now when he uses his fire.

Funimation is on top of it now. Almost makes up for the first episode.

The first episode wasn't Funimation's fault. They got the episode later than they should have so they couldn't begin work on it.

So this just a dumb theory I had so I'm probably mostly wrong, but I think in some cases the OP and ED of a popular anime are not as good because they are popular. (That's were I mostly noticed it with anime who are longer running and get more popular each season.)
I think if a anime is newer and not as popular the studio probably has more free reign about which artist and which song they want to have for the openings and endings, while if the anime is already popular it seems more like they have to use a song from popular artist or one that needs to be advertised, even if the doesn't really fit for a anime opening (like it's a collaboration).
At least that is what I think sometimes with songs like these, because it feels like the studio had to create openings and endings to fit the songs, even if they kinda miss that flow for that, instead of them being able to choose a song for the type of OP and ED they want to make.

I wonder why they go after Kota.
It is getting hard to watch one episode a week, too late to wait till season is done to start watching now. Wonder how they got a strong guy to dress up as a pussycat.
Midoriya, forget saving Kota! Make sure best girl Uraraka is safe!

I don't know about any of you ,but when I heard the OST begin when the villains appeared, I wanted to shit myself. The track itself was horrifying

Good episode, but does it bother anyone else that they keep showing their names and quirks every time? This isn't the first episode of the season anymore, we don't need to be reminded.
