It's interesting to see the different in philosophy which you can see from what they admire in All Might
Bakugo loves All Might because he's the strongest hero and never loses
Deku because he's a hero who saves lives and watched videos of him saving people
You can even see it in the exam when pushed come to shove he stopped to save Bakugo when he could have escaped
Bakugo was more concerned with winning The whole time

Episode went by way too slowly, could have easily condensed much of the 2nd half, actually some of the first half too. We could have had way more time with Shigaraki Tomura.
Bakugou once again proved he is the most heroic in the class, sacrificing himself to let the weaker one his teammate escape. Midoriya ought to take time to think of the big picture.
Midoriya carrying bakugou two times though, very pleasing.

Man All Might is broken as hell in motion. Deku needs to learn from Bakugou on how to be great.
No one can stop him if he was
except maybe Aizawa
Like he changed the weather by punching really hard
God damn, All Might is scary. I really want to see what he would be like at full strength uninjured/handicapped like he was this episode & against Nomu.
Thought it was a great episode, especially for the reasons caliph pointed out about the difference in philosophies between Deku & Bakugo.
Also, League of Villains!
Also, DO NOT watch the preview if youre not a manga reader. Heavy ass spoilers. Not sure why they would show that much.

Why would you want against Nomu, what everyone should be wanting is seeing All Might v antagonist who even gave him his injury, that would be something awesome to see, and all might going out against an actually relevant and interesting person.
I woudn't cal Noumu a person, not anymore.
Not even what I was saying but ok.
I do want to see All Might vs the person that fucked him up though, youre right about that.

I was really banking on development for Bakugo being more unrealistically quick so he can stop being such an aggressive turd but I suppose that wouldn't make much sense.
I did enjoy watching All Might beat the crap outta him mind you.

Yeah, thank god One For All cant be taken by force.
Still, the fight was as awesome as it was gut-wrenching.

Awesome time to watch best boy Bakugou get his origin animated.
This scene was crazy:
You gotta love that boy alone for his immense will power.
To be fair they shouldn't have really called it his origin episode since there was literally nothing new here. Unlike Todoroki's origin which showed and revealed a lot more.

Love how everyone is a closet all might fanboy. Keeping waving those death flags on all might. Was a important episode for bakugo. He got the todoroki treatment.

True but to be fair I would hope Todoroki gets more revealed about him because we barley knew anything about him, since he only started getting a lot of screen/panel time in the festival arc. Either way I really liked the Bakugou Katsuki: origin chapter in the manga.

More like an origin point for him being a less shitty person.
You can hear Bakugou's mom at the end of the last episode of the festival.
In the manga yes.
We heard his mom voice telling him to be quiet when he was killing germs
Nothing yet
Ah okay i was just asking maybe i missed something in the anime.
Ah yeah that scene was hilarious.

His mom yelled at him for brushing his teeth too loudly after the sports festival
Also,
they make an appearance in the manga. Most of what we know about them comes from supplemental material which isn't in the story proper, and probably won't get animated, so it's kind of fuzzy if its really spoilers

Holy shit I finally caught up with the exam arc.
1) I loved the Aizawa fight with Yao and Todoroki but the fanservice was a bit too much for me. I'm glad her self-esteem problems were finally dealt with.
2) I honestly think Mineta is funny and don't hate him. He's a terrible guy, but his English dub voice and just his design is just so funny to me. Regardless of his antics.
3) All Might was really going ham on these kids, like, HOLY FUCK. Like, take it down a notch man you need to chill. It's not that serious. Don't cripple your student bro.
All in all I liked this arc but not more than the previous two this season.

All Mights beating up 15 year olds and Endeavor was terrozing a 6 year old.
Endeavor is an asshole & All Might isnt.

Uhhh.....Recovery Girl........I guess. When All Might broke Deku's back I thought that was too far. Didn't Jet Bootsu say that All Might was a bad teacher? He was fucking right.
Not feeling Toga's voice.
How did they not do this shot.
They made one huge mistake tho, this exact scene was not in the anime.
Too bad i really love that shot.
How did they not do this shot.
Todoroki was younger, this wasn't done on a daily level, not in a home setting, and no Recovery Girl.
Recovery Girl also said that he was really close to inflicting permanent damage, she can't heal that. Yeah, All Might is definitely not fit to be a teacher.
Ikr? it pisses me off, it was a huge page in the manga for a reason goddammit... they really fucked this up.
Lmao really
All Might being a savant who's terrible at being a teacher because of it is fantastic characterization throughout the series.
All Might has a huge history with the villains, he knows what they are capable of so he doesn't want to babysit his students, he needs to prepare those kids as best as he can for what's to come.
A villain wants to kill and won't play around and this is what All Might is trying to teach here.
That was because it was the last page of its chapter. It wouldn't fit as well in the anime unless it was before the break in the middle of the episode.
Don't defend this bro... i wanted that shot so badly in the anime, it's badass af.
It's the whole reason he decided to take Deku under his wing for a week. Even All Might realized he fucked up Deku's training as soon as he saw that invitation. Plus there was Recovery Girl who kept saying he was doing a terrible job as well.
