Excellent episode! I really liked how Midoriya's hardworking nature is expressed through this episode. This episode spans over ten months of montaging Midoriya's training. I love to see a perseverant MC! :D The serious nature of Midoriya's inner monologue combined with All Mights "eat this" made me laugh. The scene were All Might discovers Midoriya is overworking himself could have been made more emotional, especially the line where he says "I have to work harder than anyone else!" I feel it could've been stronger and lasted a little longer. I love how it emphasises that even though he's gone through a lot of intense training, he's still the same nerdy fan boy. Midoriya is very loveable.

Season 1 Episode 3 of My Hero Academia was the episode that made me start rooting for Izuku Midoriya even more. After seeing how powerless and insecure he was in the first episodes, this one finally gave him hope. Watching him train so hard just for a chance to enter U.A. High showed how determined he really was. Even without a Quirk at first, he still refused to give up on his dream of becoming a hero.The best part of the episode was definitely the relationship between Midoriya and All Might. All Might pushing him through intense physical training while also encouraging him made their mentor-student connection feel genuine. The beach cleaning training montage was simple, but it showed Midoriya’s hard work and growth over time. Seeing him slowly become stronger felt rewarding because the show spent time showing the struggle instead of making everything easy for him.I also liked the emotional moments in the episode, especially when All Might finally told Midoriya that he could become a hero. That scene felt powerful because it was something Midoriya had wanted to hear his whole life. The ending, where he receives One For All, was exciting and emotional at the same time because it marked the true beginning of his journey.Overall, Episode 3 was inspiring and motivating. It focused less on action and more on hard work, determination, and self-belief. Even without major fights, the episode still felt memorable because of the character development and emotional payoff.
