Daaang, Kirishima looked amazing here! We finally got his backstory, and it intertwined perfectly with the fight. Fat Gum and Red Riot’s dynamic was insane—such a badass moment!

Seeing Kirishima with black hair was unexpected—I thought red was natural, lol. This episode really added depth to his character. Let’s go, Red Riot!

Episode Context

Following episode 8's showcase of Tamaki Amajiki holding his own against multiple enemies, episode 9 continues the pattern of splitting the raid team and giving individual heroes their defining moments. This is the second consecutive character-spotlight episode during the Shie Hassaikai operation, deepening the emotional stakes before the group pushes further toward the arc's central confrontation. It bridges the early raid skirmishes and the larger battles still to come in the season's back half.
