Try harder. Jeez, Izuku broke his fingers TWICE for crying out loud!

Well...it didn't get interrupted, but what I said about the rest of the tournament not mattering now that Midoriya is out seems to have been spot on. 6 matches in one episode?
Hopefully the finals at least will get something substantive.
They were short, but i would still call them serviceable matches; at least better than a flash forward or, like you said, an interruption. Good to see a new villain and a loss to 'the heroes' to keep the stakes high.
The Hero Killer looks cool as fuck, hopefully he delivers.
He's a fucking tryhard edgelord.
A person carrying multiple blades but not taking care of them in the slightest isn't too cool in my opinion. His sword was totally wrecked. He's just an ignorant savage.
I don't mind the quick fights. That's just how fights go when one side isn't suited to fight the other. Only a fool (like Deku) would try to stretch a fight for no purpose whatsoever.
I don't feel like that was the case with either of the girls. Plant girl should have been able to do much better against Iida. And acid girl should have been able to to better than nothing again against birdguy.
I mean, for Christ sake, a girl that could literally root herself into the ground let herself just get scooted out of the ring.
It's not like I wouldn't understand your pov, but an abnormally high speed is one thing that many would have a hard time dealing with, unless she had had the wits to fully plan her actions beforehand (like Deku would do) and then be able to execute the plan. As we saw in the ep, she didn't do what she should have done and instead tried to attack immediately. She had no chance of connecting that attack.
What exactly would the acid girl do against the shadow?
She beat a guy...with LIGHTNING POWERS! If her vines are faster than lightning, then they're faster than Iida.
Same thing she did against the laser guy. Skate around and dodge it until she could attack the guy.
This is the problem. Not that they lost, but that they were both much more competent in previous rounds, and in this round, they just stood there and didn't do anything.
I'll be sure to let Kenpachi know your thoughts on him.

It's not really a sword with Kenpachi. It's a "living" (or whatever they are) being with the shape of a sword. He can't maintain it. I haven't read the Bleach manga, so I don't know if he learned how to communicate with it. Of course it's possible this dude is the same, but somehow I didn't get that feeling. I might be totally wrong.

Well, that was disappointing. Fighting Midoriya was supposed to fix Todoroki, but it seems to have just made him worse...
4:54 Did that song just say "fucking superstar"?
Anyway, there were a bunch of funny scenes after the credits, which this show doesn't usually do, so make sure you don't miss em.

Sucks that Todoroki stayed in pussy-mode, so I fully empathize with Bakugo.
Was it ever explained how Recover Girlīs "distribution" is organized? We see Lidaīs brother in critical condition ... something that Recovery Girl could easily fix.
"She's the only non-loli girl in the show, your honor!" will be my defense in court

Todoroki taking time to think about shit makes sense. Instantly getting over a lifetime's worth of trauma and hatred from one kid's advice would be the more unrealistic outcome. What I don't get is why their mother is in hospital for so long. That simply doesn't happen.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Well...If you were planning of creating and raising the ultimate hero the most promising one got attacked by their mother....How would you react? What do you think Endeavor did to her?
When he said hospital, I assumed he meant "mental institution".
Todoriki is Endeavor's best chance of realizing his goal, and his mother basically went nuts and attacked him. He basically used his influence to have her indefinitely committed.
He probably didn't even have to try that hard. Having a breakdown and pouring scalding water on your child is probably a pretty reasonable reason to be committed.
I'd rather say Todoroki giving up made sense. He realised that competition was meaningless for him. It's not like Izuku would have healed him. Izuku merely made him think, get out of his old, tepid, unproductive groove. His conclusion was that he needs to fix his relationship with his mom, save her, if he wants to really become a hero in his own mind. Winning that competition would have done nothing for him, in fact if it was what he previously wanted to do, it would be better to drop it. It's not his priority anymore.
It quite funny how Bakugo is so empty. Maybe he's actually sensing it himself and is trying to mask it with his violent and noisy act. He has got not troubled background, no uphill climb, nothing bigger in the background that would drive him forward more than competitions like this. If you give your everything to win a contest, but some other public favourite can drop it suddenly without a second thought, it's going to piss you off. Of course a whole bunch of the students are like that, but he's not really paying attention to most of them.
I'm actually really psyched about finding out their hero names next week.
I'd say pretty much everyone EXCEPT Todoroki is like that, even Midoriya. Winning the contest is just a symbol of your determination and resolve to be a top hero, which is what all of them want.
Todoroki refusing to fight at full strength is more or less shitting on their determination. Because it shows he's not resolved enough to give it his all himself.
It's why Bakugo is so pissed off. Because Todoroki was willing to fight Midoriya at full strength, but not Bakugo. Which means he acknowledges Midoriya, but doesn't Bakugo.
