    And no named character dies during ANY of that shit.

    Motherfucker holds a small NUKE in his hands as it goes off and turns up totally fine. So don't try to pretend OP has stakes that HA doesn't you hypocrite.

    It's not necessarily about dying, I mentioned that. But nothing in bnha ever felt like something bad was happening.

    Episode 44

    ---------------------














    Fuck yeah. THIS is a fight worth watching. Baiting Tokoyami into the evil guy, calming him down, and the human bullet thing were all plausible outcomes. This was a much better episode than trying to brawl with an arm, doing "what's broken can't be broken again".

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    Shapeshifting, cloning, remote control? Who knows. Remote control would actually be quite terrifying.

    WHY did the magician release Falco from the little ball?

    God, these villains are pre-schooler levels of evil.

    Because he's a showman. The same reason he prepared the decoy balls. Slight of hand is thematic for what he's trying to do, as is "revealing the trick" to the 'audience' (the students he bested). These guys are 'vanguard action squad' in name only, because they clearly have not been through any tactical or group training.

    Because Dabi told him to, because he wanted to know which one they still had in their possession.

    Besides, you act like if they'd have left him like that, he'd have just been trapped in the ball forever. I'm betting it wears off after awhile or if the Magician gets too far. So it didn't really matter if he let him out or not once they lost control of the ball.

    Well, heroes die. So MFauli has nothing to rant about anymore and others lost their feel good shonen...

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.

    8-9

    Lets see, we got an explanation for the 1Mil% smash, foreshadowing the hero's plan, and a thoughtful reflection on the feasibility of the shounen desire to 'save your friend' when there are actually trained professionals for that (even if you're training to become one of those professionals).

    I like the sleazy media looking for a story beyond serving the public confidence in heroes. Parallels could be drawn to other law enforcement, and their portrayal being positioned in pop culture by the news media, which is itself a business with a fiduciary duty to get viewership, not serve a public good.

    I liked the decoy operation of using the conference to suggest they were nowhere near an actionable plan when in reality the pizza was already en route. Best Jeanest's no-nonsense approach makes him suited to his rank, and even his words to Bakugo, some as filler I believe, were well woven into the pre-rescue scene.

    Shigaraki keeping his cool shows some growth on his side. I enjoy when major antagonists also have development and growth alongside the protagonists.

    I get the need for levity, but I wish the dress up segment had been a bit more muted and short. Maybe it felt different the manga panels, but the screen time dedicated to the humor of it actually felt like the kids weren't taking the rescue seriously, or forgot what they were doing for a moment.

    This Sasuke retrieval arc really took a left turn.

    I likes two things specifically:

    1) They used Kirishima's friendship with Bakugo in a good way to tie their plan together.

    2) The narrated plan was the happening plan. Its easy for a narrated plan that immediately goes 'off the rails' to feel like a waste of time since the viewers had to sit through the explanation of it anyway, so here I was expecting the "real thing" to deviate, but what we saw is what we got.

    I LOVED that. Deku is smart enough to know that Bakugo is too proud to accept help from him.

    I mean, he's probably not, but Jeanist COULD be.
