I love the progress in this episode, both for the characters and the story itself. Bakugo, Midoriya, and Todoroki’s character developments here were just amazing. They’re gonna be an indestructible trio, honestly.

This felt more emotional because I’ve already seen Vigilantes. The story progression was quite amazing, though. The mystery is still there, and rather than giving answers, it just leaves more questions unsolved. And that’s how it should be.

This episode was really deep and emotional. This family drama is really complicated, but I’m here for it. I really love Endeavor’s redemption arc so far. It’s slow, but the progress has been really good.
