Hi hey hello Happy Thursday We're almost at the weekend
Anno
Boku no Hero Academia Dragon, Ie wo Kau Episode 5-8 Fruits Basket Episode 5-8 Ijiranaide, Nagatoro-san Episode 4-7 Isekai Maou to Shoukan Shoujo no Dorei Majutsu Episode 7-8 Shadows House Episode 6-7 Super Cub Episode 6-8 Tensura Nikki - Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken Episode 4-8 Zombieland Saga
Anno
We won't have Bang tonight, since the only thing left we've been watching with him is Shadows House, and he thinks he's dropping that one anyway So we can probably watch it whenever
I do think Class A needs a win here They got really beat down in that second match and that third match went pretty poorly aside from their best attempts to draw
Unrelated but the fact that this arc is totally gonna run through the entirety of the current season is gonna be annoying Class B has some particularly insufferable people in it
Anno
Wow look at Bakugou being cooperative
Anno
That is a really bizarre Quirk Probably good for scouting
I think Bakugou will win this one and show how much he's grown
Anno
Yeah, I think there's a good chance of it He's still a pretty solid dick about it all, but it does seem like the previous arcs have evolved his perspective about being a hero
Anno
It also feels like the B team is underestimating the rest of the A team
Anno
Oh yeah hah hah Because the volatile compound Bakugou uses to make explosions is his sweat So in the winter he's not sweating as much, so he can't get to his strongest as fast as usual
The A teams so far have been a little weak or disjointed I think this is the first match with someone as focused as Bakugou
Anno
The other members are really pulling their weight too though Jiro's scouting and offensive capabilities are actually seriously good And Sero is showing some pretty solid thinking on the fly The sugar guy ... well he was the muscle they needed hah hah
Anno
They really blasted through that round though I guess it both helps show how competent Bakugou has become And also on a meta-level helps them move this arc along
They're spending a bit more time on the strategy phase before the next match than I was expecting I wonder if they'll leave the episode on the starting buzzer or if we'll see a bit of action before the episode is over
Anno
Yeah hah hah They've got like three utility Quirks and Deku on this team
Oh I forgot This is the first time he's really used his quirk since he was visited by the previous users
Anno
On top of that, the first time we saw the previous users, even if they were nothing more than shadows, was when Deku got brainwashed by that one guy during the athletics festival If they try to brainwash him again, it might activate it once more Plus I could see the obnoxious Class B guy copying Deku and getting one of the Quirks of the other users instead of One For All
Oh sorry for the spoiler then I Thought I watched the movie with you between seasons I must have watched with someone else
Anno
Eh no worries I generally don't care too much for shounen movies since they're one-off and often barely even canon Hero Academia's movies are written by the mangaka so they're more canon than normal, but they're still basically entirely isolated things By "I never got around to it" it's more "I don't think I'll ever get around to it"
Anno
Momiji what the fuck How did he grow like two feet in the like two or three months we haven't seen him during
Anno
I think most of the younger Soumas have grown up a bit Hiro and Kisa both look older than they did than the last time I think we saw them
Lots of character growth lately but it also seems like everyone has lots left to grow
Anno
Especially with this final season being one-cour, they're probably gonna cut a lot of the stuff with the older Soumas, aside from maybe one or two As we move towards the finale it'll probably focus on Kyo, Tohru, Akito, and Shigure
Anno
It must be rough hearing your mother talk to you like you're just a friendly acquaintance
wow these girls are gonna get him but they may actually let him have feel
Anno
The one with the twintails seems to have like zero braincells All her voice lines are like two-word echoes of what the other one says If not just animalistic sounds
Now he can never look at premium anpan the same way ever again
Anno
She makes a very reasonable point
Anno
I don't think that's entirely accurate But I do think the kind of people who are reticent to compliment and praise people are often the kind of people that don't receive earnest praise anyway
Anno
>Why does Nagatoro want me to keep drawing her Geez dude I wonder
He really is one of the most dense people on the planet
Anno
In a bit to his defense, a lot of what she does is really mean Or at first, at least Even now she's still regularly kind of tactless and excessive in her teasing of him But at least with how she acted when she first met him I don't entirely blame him for getting mixed signals
Anno
Oh we missed the episode of Isekai Maou we were gonna watch Want to do that now?
It seems like we might see more of his original harem this episode I think that's another reason this season has been kind of less impactful than the first They built up a bunch of characters and then just dipped on like half of them to pick up a brand new, totally unrelated plot thread with a bunch of brand new, totally unrelated characters on the other side of the world
Anno
Well if it's the only time he's ever had Of course it would be the best
The actual Maou talks more intelligently than I was expecting She's been all "Yay, biscuits!" that when she starts sniffing out Diablo as a poor imitation of a Maou and stuff, she sounds older than you'd think
Anno
These racketeers sure picked the wrong cafe to demand money from
Anno
Even the weakest person in this set of four would probably be enough to exterminate this criminal family from the city
And they're all a bunch of murderhobos aside from Diablo
Anno
Oh i guess I blinked and they got back to the original city Diablo was operating out of I was wondering why all the main characters were showing up in that other city he'd travelled to.
Meiji Era! She really made for a lovely geisha when she was alive
Anno
Though this is a good look too
Yuu
densetsu
Anno
Looks like this is why Yugiri is so sweet on the Necroducer He reminds her of a different man who was trying to revive Saga Though it also looks like a lot of the cast have similar faces in this time period
Anno
This really is a lovely setting though I'm not one for wanting to travel back in time or anything But being able to immerse myself in a recreation or simulation of an environment like this would be nice
Anno
Tae!
Yuu
japanese truck
Anno
Is your Internet okay Rika
Anno
Also that was a rickshaw not a truck!
Yuu
yeah im just in bed
Anno
Wow aren't you lucky I guess that's why you're always passing out towards the end of these nights hah hah
Anno
She was very lovely when she was alive There's something about her right now that feels a bit different from when she's even dressed up to look human
Anno
This is the old man who we've seen once or twice He runs a bar the Necroducer sometimes goes to And totally has actual necromancer vibes to him
Yuu
oh gramps knows necromancy
Anno
Makes sense Who he is in present Saga seems to be who taught Necroducer the dark arts too
Anno
And there's Saki and Lily Now we're just missing Sakura
Anno
Her Kansai-ben is nice It's not as pronounced as most, but what's there is pleasant.
Anno
Oh huh it's a two-parter Didn't expect that Or well I think last week's PV did say it would be part one
Yuu
i guesswe will see how she dies next ep
thanks for anime
Anno
Yup yup, thanks for anime Have a nice weekend, if I don't see you around, Rika
