She was clearly saying it on the phone - she didn't feel like she could be Todoroki's parent anymore, because she knew what was happening to her and that she was becoming mentally unstable around him.

one fun thing is that the size of the arena constantly shifts throughout the battle lol. dramatic licence! i don't care though because the end result is cool.
todoroki's fire blastback is insane. endeavour is an abusive wanker who deserves some serious jailtime, but also it turns out literal eugenics works eventually. lmao.

Cool, cool. I guess my ballpark of
episode 13 being the end of Volume 5

Yep that really helps make the scene in both of these fights. Fantastic OST with great animation.
Come on now man, 100% power level Todoroki would wipe the floor of Bakugan. Dual quirks with synergy to counteract each other's drawbacks/side effects. Bakugan has one quirk and he isn't even using his grenade hands.
If Bakugan wins it would have to be through cleverness or sheer will or some plot device/armor.

Far from it. He has combat prowess they made that clear hmm now I've talked myself into him winning...ugh
Now more than before, the experience gap between Deku and the other potential top of the class picks is really really apparent. I can definitely see the need for an upgrade.

He just comes off as being so brutish.

He does but he is far from stupid, he might be easy to rile up but he does posses a good amount of 'sense' for battle, not to the same level as Todoroki or Deku but it's there.
Old Bakugan would have easily lost to Zero G girl. All she had to do was touch him. He zoned out her out with precision and didn't go all out as to not straight up kill her. Bakugan has grown as a character since he lost to Midorima in that training exercise.
Good thing for Bakugan is that it's not a straight fight, he can win with ring out. If he is under heat from Todoroki he can quickly accumulate sweat for a powerful knockback concussion attack.

This very episode highlights that bakugo isn't a brute, he's sitting in the stands analyzing todoroki during the fight and correctly assesses that he has a physical limitation to his quirk.
Based off he himself having a limit outside of the suit he designed.
Eh, sure I do ... *conducts google search*
She may have a bad match up with explosion kid if they were to meet though.
Fantastic episode! Just... wow. I can't stop watching the end.
Count me as one of the people that expected the Mom to be evil. Either way I expected Endeavor to be the main reason he was messed up anyway. I really like how they spliced the flashbacks in bit by bit, instead of hitting us with it all at once like most shows do. Both this and Attack on Titan are fantastic when it comes to handling flashbacks imo.

What??? The only time he was simple minded hothead was against Midoriya in their first test, bakugous many moments since then have showed hes one of the more capable and calculating characters, even his ochako match when the teacher explained what Bakugou was doing for Ochako, and this episode when he was having his inner monologue about todoroki.

What? Did you suddenly forget the massive assault Bakugou unleashed against Ochako sending rocks even to the stadiums roof and not getting tired at all??? Or forget how mobile Bakugou is??? Im not seeing how Bakugou can even be considered a gram of an underdog here.
It's insane.
I'm usually a "the manga is superior" type of dude, but man... I can't imagine reading this or AoT anymore after these past few episodes.

Iida's going to run away with it all.
Got to go with the underdog, Kirishima.
I like his chances in arm wrestling if he can force some more draws.
I am thinking the same.
First thing that came to mind when Midoriya lost was "ugh the rest of that arc is going to suck now"

Im still thinking about this episode.
Its probably my single favourite episode of an anime ever or atleast super up there

Nothing about this season has been mediocre. I could understand it if you said that about the first season, though I'd still disagree. Even with the problems it was still an above average shonen adaption.
My general rule is: "Anime is always better than manga... until it's not."
I'm going with a character.

If it weren't for All For One's origin I'd feel like MHA is Objectivist propaganda.
I feel in 100 episodes Deku will master All For One and talk about how much of a self made man he is, and how people just need to work harder to be Number 1.
It's kind of asinine that Deku suggests everyone is striving to be Number 1. I sincerely doubt that. Like there's literally no way someone like "tape elbow" dude or "frog girl" could seriously think they can compete with Deku/Todoroki/Bakugo. If they truly are striving to become Number 1 they are striving in vain. The nature of quirks makes society so inherently unequal that its laughable how often the narrative seems to suggest "JUST WORK HARD" is enough to become a contender for Number 1.

Let's not get carried away...
I'm pretty sure Hunter X Hunter 131 is still the reigning king.

Deku's ability is One for All.
lol I don't know what show you are watching. Deku has always maintained that he has gotten where he is because of the help of others. Didn't we just have a flashback two episodes back where he said the same thing?
Deku's belief is that no one is half assing trying to become a hero so not being completely serious is doing a disservice to their fellow classmates.
