Hiroshi Kamiya’s voice might honestly be one of the reasons that really pulled me into this episode. He’s such a good VA. Not just him, though, of course. Nobuhiko also did such a great job. They’re both so good at portraying the characters’ emotions, making this episode even better. I love this episode so much! So peak!

Finally, some character depth for All For One. And honestly, all I can say is that maybe I was wrong about villains being made and not born. That doesn’t really apply to AFO.

I love the connections between the stories from both the past and present. The way it was shown here was amazing.

THIS!! This episode was too good! 😭 Everything fell into its rightful place, like puzzle pieces finally coming together. This was absolute cinema, y’all! This was all so worth it. DO NOT SKIP THIS EPISODE!

Wow ini membuat motif All For One menjadi lebih dalam, heartbreaking, namun tetap saja mengerikan. Hubungannya dengan Yoichi juga sangat menyedihkan. Baguslah kita bisa melihat masa lalu mereka dengan lebih jelas di episode ini.

Some backstories of AFO and OFA when they are just infant which is shocking that as AFO even as just an infant is already very greedy. Bakugo fight with AFO is amazing with Bakugo's quirk is getting stronger along with the creative way of using it.

This chapter perfectly illustrates the “origin” of why All for One is who he is. It reveals the essence of the villain that has been latent since his birth, but also that of the hero within Yoichi.
To wrap things up, Bakugo continues to push himself beyond his limits.

Mixes action with a deep look into All For One’s past. It’s dark, emotional, and explains how he became the villain he is now. While Bakugo’s fight really feels like the result of everything he’s been through. You can see how much he’s grown, not just in strength but as a person.

A gorgeous jump into the backstory of All for One. It's great in the way that it doesn't necessarily make you want to sympathize with him completely, but illustrates that he's been like this his entire life. Finding that Bakugo has been haunting him in a way, by reminding him of how he lost his brother. On the other side of the battle, Bakugo proves that, yes, he can truly be stronger and more powerful than All-Might. The animation in this fight is truly some of the best! The lights and colors and the sheer visual power from both sides of the battle, make it so awe-inducing to watch.

EPISODE CONTEXT

Coming off the momentum of episode 3's climactic 'The Final Boss!!' confrontation, this fourth episode narrows its lens onto Bakugo's pivotal role in the escalating war against All For One. It serves as both a character showcase and a narrative bridge, deepening the stakes before episode 5, 'History's Greatest Villain,' shifts focus toward the antagonist's origins and motivations. Positioned early in this 11-episode final season, the episode signals that the series is holding nothing back in its endgame.
