John Forces Nelson to Watch Anime
00:00:04
Speaker
Welcome to Weave Along. I'm John and I'm forcing my friend Nelson, who doesn't like anime, to watch and discuss different anime. Thanks for tuning in. Let's get started.
Introduction and Episode Overview
00:00:16
Speaker
Hi, everybody. Welcome back to We Belong. My name is Nelson here with me. As always is John. Say hi, buddy. Hello, that's me. It is you. ah Yeah, we're continuing with our My Hero Academia watch this
Excitement for Episodes 5-9
00:00:30
Speaker
week. We did episodes so five through nine. ah So it was our biggest block of season one and shit's finally kicking off. which I think is pretty
Shift from Exposition to Action
00:00:42
Speaker
neat. Yeah, it makes me happy that you think that shit is kicking off when it hasn't fully kicked off yet. No, but things are doing well. Yeah, things are happening like it's less expo dumpy and a little bit more action. Deku got his costume and we didn't have to watch an entire arc about his mom making it. Correct. So I like that. I like that a lot.
00:01:06
Speaker
Like we had different things for the most part happen in every episode. Yeah. Yeah. Which were who? No useless bullshit. Oh, yeah.
No Filler Episodes
00:01:18
Speaker
You know, my hero has very little filler. So there's 144 episodes currently out. I believe that of those, I think like for our filler. I thought you were going to say 10. So four is a much better number. Now, there's even one where they open and then they even have like Deku and all my talking and they're like, oh, yeah, when did this happen? And it's like, I don't know, but it's a fun adventure. Where it's really just a little filler adventure. That's incredible.
Hinting at Future Villains
00:01:51
Speaker
I like that. Yeah, it knows what it's about. And done I like that. And also, you know, it's just got good stories. So it just goes. I'll take your word for it because I'm not there yet. Correct.
00:02:05
Speaker
Like I know eventually shit pops off, but like I don't know when and I don't know how.
Deku's School and Quirk Assessment
00:02:11
Speaker
You've had villains teased, but you haven't actually had like actual villains. Yeah, that's that's an accurate statement. Mm hmm. But I guess anyway, without further ado, why don't you start us off with episode five? Hell yeah. Episode five. Deku starts school at U.A. and gets to meet some of his classmates and his teacher as they are put through a quirk. assessment test. But yeah, we open up with the pros talking about all the different candidates in the exam ah with Bakugo being the leader of it. I think he had like 75 points or something like that and he did. 76, don't short him. 76, oh my gosh, so sorry. But yeah, 76 points, not a single one of those being rescue points, all of them just you know killing bitches. Yeah, kill points. Yeah, being fucking sweaty.
00:03:02
Speaker
And then we also see a majority who want to be in seven who didn't have any million points but had all the rescue points which is what a hero should have exactly exactly and that's why he's our protagonist hell yeah.
Deku's Merit-Based Acceptance
00:03:19
Speaker
It's season two and for the rest of the show it just switches over to the point of view from Bakugo being like wow this guy fucking sucks and then we hate Deku for the rest of the show. Could you imagine? That'd be awesome. We get a whole noggy movie.
00:03:33
Speaker
ah
00:03:36
Speaker
But yeah, we go from that, then we go to the night that Deku got his acceptance thing, running to the beach, meeting up with All Might, where All Might reveals that he didn't actually have to pull any strings to get Deku in, and he was actually able to just get in on his own merits and how he acted during the exam. Everyone was very impressed with him, so he should be, you know, feel good about himself because it wasn't- Be proud of yourself. Yeah, he's not exactly a nepo baby, so that's good.
00:04:07
Speaker
Without even being related, that's a really good Nepo baby. Uh huh. You know, tries his best. It's like Maya Hawk. There we are. Also a Nepo baby. Yes. Yes. ah My favorite thing about Maya Hawk is that she's a Nepo baby for Ethan Hawk. But in her Twitter bio, it says daughter of Tony Hawk, ah which makes me happy. You do realize her mother is also like super famous, right? Yes, but her name escapes me right now, so I was breezing over it. I believe
U.A. Students' Quirks and Introductions
00:04:36
Speaker
it's Uma Thurman. Oh, hey, there we are. Yep. And I don't suck oh my firm and shut the fuck up and keep talking about my year. I don't bring Fall Out Boy into this. Listen, not even good Fall Out Boy. But yeah, Deku and all men are talking. They start discussing one for all. And there you go.
Quirk Assessments Begin
00:04:56
Speaker
Got you.
00:04:57
Speaker
And I may or may not have written it down one for all. So that way I didn't flub it out. Yep. I'm sure I still will, but oh a hundred I didn't. Uh, they talk about how Decca needs to learn how to control his output because, uh, he still hasn't figured out it's either too little or too much. Um, so he needs to think of a way to make that happen. And then he can really start making the quirk. his own. After that, next day starts. Deku goes to his first day. His mom sees him off. He arrives at UA. We find out that there were two classes of 20. So a total of 40 people in coming class. And of those, I think four people were ah given off of recommendation. Yeah. Didn't even have to do the entrance exam. So they already talented.
00:05:49
Speaker
We need to meet a couple of them early, which
Deku's Struggles and Bakugo's Anger
00:05:52
Speaker
I like. Yes, we get to meet. ah There's two in class one a and two in class one B. Yeah, it's what hot and cold and then ah dress code. Yeah, it's it's McGee. ah Yeah, you're also.
00:06:08
Speaker
But yeah, ah they make it in off of ah recommendations and stuff. And that's ah pretty fucking cool. I'm excited for you to get to know them and see more of their shit because they are some cool people. He walks up to the door. he's like, oh, we got a whole bunch of people coming in. Oh, yeah, maybe that Eda and Bakugo, although there's two classes, maybe they're in a different class, open the door immediately. They're also immediately fighting with each other as well. Bakugo has his feet up and Eda's like, you fucking miscreant. You're delecting this establishment. Yeah, you degenerate fuck.
00:06:45
Speaker
My soldiers do not put their feet on the tables. They rage. And Decker's like, fuck. And then Edith runs off and is like, you knew that you were supposed to take out that thing because people were watching. So you must be very smart. And I'm sorry that I didn't think that you were smart and sort of apologizes, but not like 100% backhanded apologies. So it's a little backhanded. It is also a giant fucking nerd. No. Yeah. We get to see in episode seven during the villainy. year Yeah. Villainita is bestita. Probably my favorite so far. Uh huh. Like that. That is, I think my favorite moment of the show is Villainita. Villainita is great. We'll go motor him in a little bit.
00:07:39
Speaker
But as they're talking, then Uraraka, a.k.a. gravity girl, shows up behind him and he is like, oh, shit, a girl. And then he starts getting flustered because, you know, middle school boy. Yeah, that'll do it. Yep. I'll do it. I'll do it. I'll do pig. I'll do pig. I'll do it. But yeah. But after that, we get a little flashback. we get to see the point where it's announced by their teacher that ah Deku and also Bakugo are going to UA. And we find out that Bakugo is not happy about that. He wanted to be the one and the only from that shitty fucking
Bakugo's Frustration and Teacher's Intervention
00:08:25
Speaker
shikua to go. And he's like, you must've cheated or some shit, how dare you?
00:08:30
Speaker
and then deku grabs his arm and looks him in the face is like listen you gotta get used to it somebody told me that they believed me and they think that i can be a hero so i'm here whether you like it or not i'm like look at each look at deku standing up for himself i'm very proud of him yeah especially because i believe he stands at a whopping like four foot two yeah so to do that to bakugo you know it takes some stones and good for him Let's see. Izuku Minidoria. Look at that. I'm learning names. Mm hmm. Height. He has five five. Five five? Uh huh. So basically four foot two. Got it.
00:09:14
Speaker
Yeah. um Wait, how does Parker go? That's what I'm looking for right now. That's ah the
Aizawa's Quirk and Role as Teacher
00:09:21
Speaker
Fred Flintstone to Barney Rubble height difference. it yeah but to from the doubt a bit knew and knew me ah We'll have a gay old time! with and better but but boom boom boom boom boom boom Um, it is five ten.
00:09:48
Speaker
And it is the tallest one. No, but there's like a there's like a three foot difference between Deku and Eda. Yeah, no, there's a five inch difference, apparently. Oh, yeah. Maybe but by number. No, it's not. like So, OK. Yeah. Cool. but ba Yeah. um After that, we also go back to the present day. We get to see the teacher arrive. Mr. Aizawa arrives, wrapped up in his sleeping bag, being a sleepy motherfucker. Aizawa, also one of my favorite characters. Great guy, cool character, cool quirk, the erasure quirk. um And for these- Okay, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Real quick, I just need to jump in.
00:10:30
Speaker
Yeah, I looked up. I simply googled my hero academia, Deku and Bakugo. Mm hmm. And you know how it goes to like. Oh, God. Also, it's. No, I went to I went to just standard Google. And the first question under people also ask is, are Bakugo and Deku in love? Yeah, ah that's like um so like I feel like you got a Tumblr answer right there. ah It said, no, that's a false notion pushed by shippers who are pairing Deku with Bakugo or Deku with Todoroki or even all three is a gay couple. In reality, there's nothing but delusion.
00:11:19
Speaker
Yep, that'll that'll do it right there. Yeah. The best way they could have worded that, I think. All right, go ahead and continue. I just needed to get that out. Oh, yeah. So I saw one shows up in his sleeping bag for this first season. I saw what is voiced by Alex Oregon, AKA Lloyd Forger from Spy Family, which is cool as fuck. All I can hear. Yeah, I was going to say made it very weird they hard to hear anything but Lloyd ah waiting for him to just yell at on here or something like that.
00:11:54
Speaker
On the first day, he's like, well, we gotta, you know, measure quirks. Let's do a quirk assessment test. And so he has Bakugo step up the line and throw a ball and he goes, cool, not do it with your quirk. And then he does it with a quirk and throws the ball. 705 meters. 0.3. Yes. And so that happens. And they're like, oh, that is funny. He's like, oh, you think this is fun? Guess what? Last one, uh, who ranks the worst is going to get fucking expelled. So, you know, If you're good enough to be here, you're good enough to be here. Don't fuck it up, bitches. And so they do some shit. ah They do some sprints. We also get to hear what Deku thinks of whenever he's trying to, you know, control his power so it doesn't overflow and doesn't underflow. He thinks about baseball. No, he's thinking and about an egg about to explode in the microwave. But you think about baseball for boners.
All Might Observes Students Secretly
00:12:48
Speaker
That was the joke, buddy. All right, whatever, keep going. My head was just shaking silently. Gotta think about baseball. What's that from? What think about baseball? Yeah, honestly, pretty much everything. I always heard any any like coming of age story where it's like an American pie type thing where it's like more adult comedy. Whenever boners come up,
Eraserhead's Limitations and Combat Weapons
00:13:18
Speaker
it's think about baseball, think about baseball.
00:13:20
Speaker
never heard that. really never that's insane i've heard i mean i've heard like think of like your grandmother or think of like dead dogs or something like that like something super sad like the ending of old yeller or something like that but i've never heard baseball if you type in Think about baseball on Google. The first thing that comes up is think about baseball to last longer. Really? Yes. Confirmed? I'm doing it right now. Yeah, go ahead. Think on sexy thoughts. Yeah, apparently it is a TV trope. Yeah, it's a whole trope.
00:13:58
Speaker
Wow. Ball Durham. See, overview. What is baseball about? What is so great about baseball? It says nothing. Weird. Odd. Yeah. Nutty, though, right?
Deku's Progress and Assessment Safety
00:14:09
Speaker
Nutty. Oh, yeah. Oh, not indeed. he's Yeah, there it is. Oh, no. Think about baseball when you won't be. Mm hmm. But yeah, so we get the whole egg in the microwave analogy and ah Yeah, doesn't want to overcook it, doesn't want to undercook it, and here we are. Almighty was says, pretty boring analogy, but okay. ah And so we move on, we go to another test, grip strength, doesn't do well in that. Long jump, doesn't do well in that. Side steps, doesn't do well in that. Then we get back to the ball throw. We get to see Uvaraka throw. And she has the ability to, once she touches stuff, make it float. So infinity is how far she flows it, throws it. so There you go. yeah
00:14:58
Speaker
Yep, yep, yep, yep. So that's cool. She gets a little infinity thing going on. Uh, then Deku gets up there. He's about to fucking just yeet that shit. Uh, and then he goes and his quirk doesn't fully activate. And you find out it's because Eraserhead was like, hey, fucking no. He's like, I saw that interesting exam. If you do that again, you're going to fuck up your body. And no, it's impractical. You can't do that because, you know, if you get injured, in the middle of a fight, you're injured and now people have to save you. So don't be a fucking burden. So about that. Yeah. Throughout this entire thing, Isawa has been nothing but a massive asshole. Yes. That's a pretty like nice thing for him to do. I mean, at the end of the day, he is a pro hero. He's a pro hero, but he's also a dick. why Yeah, that that could have been like you could
00:15:52
Speaker
Take that as a teachable moment. Correct. Of OK, you fucked it up here. Did he learn anything? Breaks his body on the ball throw and he's like he could easily turn that into all you had to do was throw a ball and you fucked that up. Yeah, but I mean, the pressure was on to not be last because he's currently in last. So I felt like if he told him just don't use your quirk, then Deku wouldn't have learned anything. No, no, no. He would have had him use his quirk, but fuck up his body in the process.
00:16:24
Speaker
Yeah, but then he wouldn't have made the effort to try to not use 100%. Yeah. It's like it's giving that test of seeing like if he can have enough restraint to try to do that because it's real that like so nobody gets expelled because it's a twist. all But Aizawa was definitely planning on expelling someone. So I have a feeling that if Deku did not show that restraint and did not actually just make it go down to his fingertip as opposed to his whole arm and not fuck up his whole arm, then he 100% would have been expelled. Yeah. So I think that it ah he did it more as like a character test as well to see what Deku was and like as his morals and all that shit as well. Okay.
00:17:16
Speaker
ah But yeah, he eats that shit ah the same distance as Bakugo, which makes Bakugo a little kiss boy ah who is very, very angry. um And so he goes to fucking fuck up Deku. And then as I was like, fucking don't, bitch, ah wraps him up in the scarves and then end. day one also ending episode five we'll open up episode six with you sir so you called uh bakugo a piss boy yep which is also how i have it written down in my description is it really yep it literally starts with bakugo becomes a piss boy
00:18:05
Speaker
God damn it. We're great. We're in sync. We see our cycles. I'm ready. I'm excited. All right. So episode six, believe it or not, Bakugo becomes a piss boy. Weird. But we do a little bit of self-reflecting and then it becomes fight day. Going back to the beginning of the episode, yeah Bakugo is mad as fuck because for all these years Deku has never showed any signs of a quirk. He's always been a quirkless loser. And now suddenly he's tying his score.
00:18:42
Speaker
It was exactly seven oh five point three, the same as his throw. And naturally, the only thing to do from there is bull rush Deku to try to go fuck him up. Absolutely. Only makes sense, right? Yeah, it's only only natural thought. Yeah. When when I think about all the times that somebody was my equal, I went, hmm, I should go fight them. Yep. Yeah, that's going to go well. Mm hmm. And i good thing we have Isawa's quirk with the. Erasure. Yeah, eraser of quirks and all that. Yeah. And then he also controls.
00:19:26
Speaker
He has a scarf that he's it's like a combat weapon where. OK. Yeah. Is it like a telekinetic thing? It's got like metal and shit, so you know how you can like bend metal a little bit and then it sort of makes other stuff go sort of like. Yeah. Yeah. Okay, it's anime it's cool. I mean, it's I'm not our own I'm not arguing that. I'm just like, is he also telekinetic? No, he's not. ah Just don't think about it too hard. Perfect. Wonderful.
00:20:00
Speaker
Uh, but also only tiny spoiler, uh, excited for the next couple of episodes. Cause we had to see eyes all went into action and dude, what the hell? Yeah. Oh yeah. No. Cause having villains pop up at the end and having him gear up for battle is definitely, Oh no. I wonder what he's going to do. yeah I thought he was going to put all that stuff on and be like, okay, everybody run away really quickly. you Fucking book it. Uh, Let's cheese it guys. Yeah. ah Get him stuck in a corner.
00:20:36
Speaker
ah But yeah, getting getting back to the non telekinetic ability. Uh huh. But yeah, he reaches out and. traps Bakugo so he can't go and I don't know murder Deku. That's always nice. I always go in the protagonist lives. Yeah. Like I said, season two went on just the Bakugo show. Just Bakugo. And all this time All Might has been watching from around the corner. it
00:21:07
Speaker
I, which is weird when that is a absolute mountain of a man. Yes. i Having those chip Skylark ass teeth that reflect any kind of light. So I don't know how he stayed hidden. He's.
Product Frustration and Character Development
00:21:24
Speaker
Yeah, sure. ah So is an elephant. But. But I was I was like, Hey, you guys got to quit doing this bullshit because I get dry eyes every time I have to use this stuff. So we get to see him put in a little eyedrop. So I don't know to what extent he can like prolong a fight before it becomes. Yeah, I'm fucking sure. Yeah, I'm fucking sure I will. I am also I'm excited for us to just keep on going with the show. It's such a great show.
00:21:55
Speaker
And the way that they just like build up their cast, both in like getting to know them and also seeing their quirks evolve as they're growing as people is very, very well done. You're taking me from this to Naruto.
New vs Old Generation Anime
00:22:12
Speaker
Yeah, yeah. We're showing you know, I know you're showing me like how pacing is different between new gen and old gen. I'm just the differences between shows. But Jesus Christ, you finally got me at the end of our Naruto watch being like, OK, maybe it isn't so bad. Mm hmm.
00:22:32
Speaker
And now I'm going to go back to it and be like, dude, fuck this. Can we go back to literally? else Let's say I would rather be watching spy family season two, just the filler episodes. Really? No. Oh, because I was gonna say, I mean, I'm trying to do it so you can appreciate both. So that way, as we continue going on with shows, you're not a crying little baby bitch boy whenever we have to watch something that's old gen.
00:23:04
Speaker
All right, this boy. Yeah. That makes sense, especially because what's the defense here? I'm ready for it. No, that makes sense. There are a couple of shows that I've been wanting to watch on my own. the Our old gen one piece yet. No, I got you. It's a fuck off. No, I was going to go watch Neon Genesis, but I'm like, I'm scared to go that old. Yeah, well, like, um. Naruto is I think the oldest one that I have fully seen. ah Because I think Code Geass came out just after that, but it was like pre new gen animation and stuff like you can tell that it's. ah After Naruto before this, one of the regulars at the restaurant I used to work at tried to get me on ah
00:24:01
Speaker
Trigun, a which I guess came out in like the 90s. Yeah. Something like that. Yeah, you'd you'd appreciate that. And I'm like, no, I wouldn't. But thank you. I'm good. Solid. I appreciate you, though. Thanks, Austin.
Deku's Struggles and Instructors' Insights
00:24:19
Speaker
But yeah, getting back to my hero. Yeah, getting back to the show. Uh, we then go to the test results. And John, I don't I don't know if you can believe this. Yeah. Deku actually came in last. Weird. Who would have thunk it? Who would have only used his quirk once? and even last quick assessment tests yeah And broke his finger in the process and had to do all the other tests with a broken finger. But, uh, yeah, that is when I saw was like, Hey, remember that expulsion thing?
00:24:59
Speaker
I was just memeing you. Mm hmm. That's not going to happen. Yeah. Pulled the Kakashi pulled the Kakashi, except for the fact that Kakashi actually did expel everybody. Yeah. Until, you know, are, of course, the one the show's named after. Well, I saw his ill entire classes before as well. Exactly. ah Yeah. Yeah. Well, I don't know if I'd still put it up to Kakashi level, though. I mean, it's the same ruse, but slightly different. ah Yes, it's the same, but different class ends. ah Deku goes to recovery. Girl, thank you, Sherry, for making him better. And all my goes and talks to Isawa and is like, hey, man, you must see what I see. You think he has potential and.
00:25:48
Speaker
Good, because that makes me not insane. Correct. School, the the first day of school ends. We go and Deku's like, oh, shit, wait a minute. I have friends and that's pretty neat. Yeah. So he yeah he kind of has that little moment of like, ah I'm not hated here. That's that's cool. Yeah, he walks up with what, Eda and Uraraka? Yeah, we got a little like friendship three. Yeah. And it's it's at least three likable characters. Yes, like that's good. That's very sad for you to meet more because most of them are very seven other plus teachers.
00:26:27
Speaker
it i It's going to be a lot of fucking people. The next day we go back to school and we go to the class that all might is teaching and we're doing combat
First-Time Costumes and Critique
00:26:38
Speaker
day. a lot, they get to wear their costumes for the first time. And some of them better than others and some of them. Not wearing very appropriate ones. Yes. um We get this whole thing of the whole class walking out and seeing everyone's costumes and it's cool. ah You weren't a huge fan of Bakugos. um You said that he looks stupid. And then you also had this very raw reaction to Deku walking out in the costume that his mom bought him.
00:27:12
Speaker
The fuck you look dumb, which he do be looking down, but he's shit. He really does. Why does he look like a rabbit? He looks like a little green bunny boy. Yeah, he looks like. um Was it the the rabbits? from like Rayman stuff. Yeah. Oh, my God. Very like just cartoonishly over the top. Similar. Yeah. Well, like so it's supposed to have those two those things because it's supposed to be like the hair that All Might has, but it sort of looks more like a rabbit instead.
00:27:47
Speaker
and then he has that thing over his mouth because it's supposed to be like how all my days always smiling when he saves people so his inspiration it for the entire cause is just supposed to be all my i've never seem to that hard over anything in my life. You need never modeled anything with your body over something that you've really enjoyed or like gotten something like augmented on your body for it. So get back to the show we have. Weird.
00:28:18
Speaker
Get back to the... Looks nervously at Game of Thrones tattoo. yeah Listen, you just really like going to get your registration updated. That's it.
00:28:32
Speaker
This fucker has DMV tattooed on his chest.
Heroes vs Villains: Deku vs Bakugo
00:28:37
Speaker
Uh, because not it doesn't just say DMV though. No, it does. You just really like waiting in line. It's the symbol for the faceless man. Yeah. That's also what they call the people at the DMV. fit
00:28:58
Speaker
A girl does not have to update the registration. A girl does not need to smile when she takes her picture.
00:29:08
Speaker
Name three names now with your emergency contacts. A girl does not need to drive. ah Getting back to my hero. Yeah, that whole thing. ah Oh, Jesus Christ. So we have a Heroes versus Villains 2v2. There's a new kid in a building on the training grounds. We get team. Was it Team A versus Team D after everybody split up? So we get Deku and Uraraka facing Bakugo and Eda. Look at you already knowing names of characters. Proud of you.
00:29:46
Speaker
I wrote them down. a I needed to disease because I always forget Eda's name. I feel like he's got the shortest name, though. He's got the least amount of syllables. That should be the easiest one. You would expect that, but because it's so short, I forget it quicker. Mm, okay. You're like, what are all these con... Actually, well, yeah, the only consonant sound that's in there is a D. Other than that, it's just vowels. It sucks. Mm-hmm. Only the D, huh? Mm-hmm, just the D. But anyway...
00:30:20
Speaker
um Yeah, Bakugo's super fucking excited that he gets to beat the shit out of Deku, because they're allowed to go however far they want, as long as they don't kill each other, but if it gets too bad, All Might's gonna step in and be like, not today! Yeah, pump the brakes, bitch! And everything begins, Deku is leading Raka around, and he's determined not to use his quirk, because he doesn't want anything to happen. happen, and then Bakugo just appears, throws a punch, ends up fucking up Deku pretty decently, but he dodges most of it. Yeah, he just catches the costume off. Yeah, he burns off part of the costume. Thank God. Yep. Which is then being like, you know what? We know it looks like shit, so. Yeah. ah Deku tells Uraraka, hey, I'll handle this. You go get the nuke and.
00:31:12
Speaker
He's like, wait a minute. I've been watching this dude for years. I know how this works. Bakugo throws a punch. Deku just kind of sidesteps him and flips him over and is like, you think that you could beat me, but you can't beat me because I know everything about you pussy. Right. He's like, he's going to throw a right hook because that's how he likes to open up fights. And then he does predict wild way to open up fight. Yeah, that's a. That's a follow-up punch. You don't start with a right hook. Well, I mean, hey, if you can, you know, just lay them out. I mean, if you can cause explosions. Yeah, that'll help. I guess that works. But yeah, Baka goes pissed because he's like, I fucking hate this kid. You know what? I don't care what anybody says. I'm going to kill him. And then the episode ends. Yeah.
00:31:59
Speaker
ah Which brings us to episode 7. In this episode we see Bakugou and Deku face off as the practical quick assessment test starts showing some of their history and insight into their dynamic. We find out that Deku and Bakugou go way back to when they were itty bitty kids. They got a little flashback of that. ah You see Deku just following Bakugo around and that sort of you know it sets up the dynamic a little bit. ah Deku and Uraraka decide to split up to, you know, Uraraka find the weapon while Deku sort of handles Bakugo a little bit by himself. Bakugo starts switching up his moves because he goes to keep on attacking.
00:32:41
Speaker
Deku and Deku goes to the capture tape and Bakugo's like, ah, fuck no. And then um Deku does what Deku does. He ah runs away. He gets a little space to think because overanalyzing is exactly what he does best. And then he comes to realization of like, well, Uraraka finds the weapon. It's going to be her versus Eda. If I get there, that'll help. But also if I get there, Bakugo is probably just going to chase me. So I got to take care of him first. So I got to take down Bakugo. So then he makes a decision. I'm a square up. We get to see some flashbacks of Bakugo and Deku growing up. We see Bakugo getting his powers for the first time and how the entire class is like. In kindergarten. In kindergarten. I think that they present when you're like five or something like that. Oh my God.
00:33:28
Speaker
Yeah. So I would hate to have a five year old like in my class that I was teaching. Then like I now have to worry like one kid flying. Right. Problem that kid can blow shit up. Yes. I need to worry about that one more bad temper tantrums and then we're fucked. Um, yeah, that would be awful. Yeah, I we could not imagine the teaching in how many days you would need just for like personal days. Yeah. Like here's Bill Nye days. Do you have? Oh, all my kids broke my arms. Mm. Weird. Nubs. Nubs McGee over here. Nubs McGee.
00:34:11
Speaker
But yeah, ah we get to see them in kindergarten. Everyone's like, Bakugo, you're so cool. And then we see that sort of starting to build him up for a superiority complex. And we even get to see as they're going and doing stuff together, as they're going throughout stuff, Bakugo's like leading the way for all the guys. ah And he's going across his log. He slips and falls and goes down into the creek. And Deku runs up to offer him a hand up. So deck it was one person who is like i can recognize that box goes strong and while everyone's like oh he's got this deck is the only person who'd be like oh you're strong but you still need help and i can try to help you. You're never too strong to ask for a hand exactly.
00:34:55
Speaker
But Bakugo takes that as a, oh, you're offering me help, you think I'm weak? Go fuck yourself, I hate you. Fuck you, bitch. And yeah, go feral, feral fuck. And yeah, that is why Bakugo hates Deku so much, which is a choice. ah A wild thing to just jump to hatred for. Yeah, it's like you're too much of a nice person, fuck you. Yeah, how dare you give me a hand when I fell off a bridge? How dare you give a shit? How dare you? Yeah. But then we get to see Uraraka and she finds the weapon and sees Eda thinking there going a little through like inner monologue and then he's decided I'm going to embrace villainy. hu And we get to see villain Eda, and he's fucking phenomenal. amazing He's so ridiculous that Uraraka can't help but laugh, giving away her position. He's like, ah, hero, you're here. boom Get fucked.
00:35:55
Speaker
ah
00:35:59
Speaker
Yeah. ah And so that Ruckus like hey Deku I got I got got i'm I'm spotted so if you can get here get here He's like, okay. I'm trying to fix some shit with Bakugo. I'll be there as soon as I can and We find Bakugo has found Deku and they square up against each other and Bakugo's gauntlet goes ka-ding and we find out why he has these giant fucking grenade looking things on his hand that look impractical. But we find out the shit they look I don't care if they're useful. They look so dumb. Listen.
00:36:36
Speaker
Listen, Linda. No, don't listen, Linda, me. You're going to tell me that you look at that and go, yeah, that was a good decision. It grows on you. So does a tumor. Yep. And grows on you. My God, it's not going to. It looks so dumb. It can't grow on me. I can. Every time I see that, I'm going to go, wow, he looks stupid as shit. it's ah It's a that you just get accustomed to over time. Getting accustomed to and it growing on you are two different things. and I think that they're the same thing. I don't know. Growing on you makes me think at some point I'm going to be like, you know what? Yeah, maybe it's not that bad. And getting accustomed to it is thinking it's stupid as shit all the time, but just getting used to how fucking stupid it is.
00:37:28
Speaker
I think it's good we're on ya, it's fine. Don't worry about it. Okay. It becomes useful, fucker. Calm down. I'm not questioning the usefulness, I'm questioning the aesthetic. Calm the fuck down right now! I'm here! ah ah yeah was ah oh monoy
00:37:59
Speaker
We got a shout out to dick laser during my episode five as well. So that was fun. Um, the clays Yep, you got to me tell me how it should be it. Oh, no, it'd be like it do be do we do we do?
00:38:19
Speaker
But yeah, ah we found out that Bakugo's Quirk stems from his sweat.
Bakugo's Quirk Explained
00:38:25
Speaker
He like sweats natural glycerin or whatever the fuck it is. And it's highly explosive. So the gauntlet store up his sweat and then he can pull a pin and shoot a sweat missile, essentially. Gross. Yeah, but you know what? It gives him range. So it just shows that he has put a lot of thought into his costume and he really wants to be a good hero. Or I don't know about being a good hero, but the best hero. We'll go with that. The most famous and richest hero. Yes. Yes.
00:38:53
Speaker
But yeah, he unleashes his blast and then Almighty's like, don't do it. And then he's like, he'll be fine if he dodges. And then Deku does not fully dodge, um gets blown through a couple of walls and shit, and fries the rest of his, ah you know, cowl or whatever he's got going on for his costume. And I think it takes off like an arm of his sleeve as well. So yeah um he sort of dodges it, but also still gets singed. All Might realizes that if he wanted to, Bakugo could have nailed Deku, but he gave him the warning. to Yeah, he gave him the warning that he'll be fine if he dodges, like telegraphing, like, hey, you should dodge so I don't kill you. ah But I also really want to try this out. And so he does. And All Might's like, all right, well, since he's not trying to kill him, I guess we continue the fight. But then he also
00:39:46
Speaker
Announces in bakugo's ears like hey you do that again Match over you lose. He was like fucking wise like well, it's impractical You would be destroying your own fucking stronghold or hideout and no one actually fight like that So keep this real and how it actually would be don't be a dumbass. I think bakugo would actually fight like that Oh, yeah, just no holding back. Just like yeah, yeah I don't think he has the forethought To actually go. Hey, wait a minute. Isn't this my house? Hmm I'm excited for the future, seeing how characters grow and shit. car Currently, yes. Now he's a feral animal. Yeah. Yeah. Although, oh, yeah, I'm just excited to get to season two with you as well. Season two is so good and I'm excited to get back to it. So let's just skip Naruto and go into that. ah Anyway, you are a hero. You're welcome.
00:40:41
Speaker
ah but Yeah baka go and goes up to deku and he goes to go do some stuff and i was like cool i'm a counter and then baka uses his blasts to changes to direct trajectory in the air to get behind deku to then attack him from behind showing that ah you know yes why did. good skill, pretty competent usage of his quirk in order to be able to do that and also just really good battle sense as well to have those instincts to go along with it. Deku comes up with a plan of like how they can still win
Match Climax and Next Episode Hints
00:41:15
Speaker
it. He squares up against Bakugo. They both take big old shots against each other. ah Deku directs his up.
00:41:22
Speaker
ah Just like he saw All Might do with the fucking goo monster and ah the ceiling and everything fucking explodes. And it goes all the way up to Uraraka's floor, who does an improvised special move, takes a pillar, makes it super light, and then hits a whole bunch of rubble at Eda to distract. And then jumps through the air lands on the weapon winning the match for the heroes and Then we got a little thing of deco admitting that he's not able to fully control his quirk and that's why he hasn't used it in the past and that he wasn't trying to hide it from him and that he Has always respected Bakugo as the strongest and that's why he tries so hard is because he wants to be strong Just like him.

00:43:37
Speaker
So the episode opens up with all my talking to the four who just did the trial and declaring it the MVP of the event because he got so into it. He did his job and he embraced villainy yeah because he is MVP. He's fucking great. Yeah, I'm excited for you to see a season two arc. I'll tell you that. Oh, no. Yeah. That makes me worried. No, he
Todoroki's Power Display
00:44:05
Speaker
just gets more. There's a little concern about a spotlight that goes on him. And good yeah, some shit happens and I'm excited for it. Hell yeah. It's like the first thing that like actually happens in the show and you're like, oh.
00:44:19
Speaker
Oh, he. Yes. Gotcha. The show's bridge builder arc um is very. It is centered. I'm excited for you to see that. I'm good for that. Yeah. We then get to learn what happened with Deku fucked himself up again real bad. Mm hmm. He done fucked up like like real bad. ah So he has to go to recovery girl, but we will get to that. Uh, we get to see everybody going in next. It's next was what I think it was Todoroki and. ah ah But, but, but, but, but, but, but. Seto. Yeah. Versus, um, Tailman. And also, uh, Hikakiri, AKA Invisible Girl. OK, cool. For some reason, I thought it was a dress code.
00:45:12
Speaker
But ah no, she breaks down the whole fight, though, and explains why it was MVP. And you get to sort of see that she is super fucking smart and good at analyzing just like Deku. But, you know, ah not as anxious and more revealing. Yep. More tits. And then we get that little pervy guy just staring at her the entire time. Yep. Manetta. i I want to punt that thing to the moon. um I don't care who voices them. I want to punt him to the moon. But yeah, Todoroki and the other guy go in and Shoji. Shoji. That's his name. Yep. S.H.O.J.I. Shoji. Gotcha. Are you just looking at your Funkos? But nope, I looked at the ah height list of the entire class. but
00:46:04
Speaker
Uh, but yeah, Shoji is like, I can tell you exactly where they are and finds out that they're, I think the middle
Recovery Girl's Challenge and Class Reaction
00:46:11
Speaker
of the second floor is what it was. Yeah. And Todorogi's like, Oh, sick. You might want to go outside real quick. And he's like, OK. And then Todoroki proceeds to freeze the entire building solid and then casually just walk up and get the bomb and then defrost the bomb and everybody else. The fucking thing that he says.
00:46:37
Speaker
ah It's not your fault. We're just playing at different levels. And it's like, oh, it's such a cool just like get fucked lying. No pun intended, but that shit is cold. Yeah, it is. It is brutal. Todoroki, so fucking cool. We also get a lot of him in the future as well, and I'm i'm very excited for it. Todoroki, of course, voiced by David Bontraga. Mm hmm. Which is a voice actor for, you know, the various voices in Gate. Yeah.
00:47:12
Speaker
And nothing else. Yeah, no, nothing. That's it. That's his claim to fame right there. Yeah. obviouslyly Good for him. Going from gate to this. That's a pretty good jump. Yeah. The got a definitely but not nothing else. No, never. No, no. But after all that goes down, we cut over to Recovery Girl in the nurse's office trying to get Deku better. She can't fully heal him because his injuries are extensive because he is fucking doing this to himself. Yeah, in between hurting himself and also Bakugo or hurting him as well.
00:47:52
Speaker
Yeah, all Mike comes in and starts talking to recovery girl about everything and she just casually throws out. Oh, well, you shouldn't have given him the one for all then. Yeah. And he's like, can you fucking not? Can you fucking stop talking, please? and beer There are three people that know about that. And I don't want you telling more. Mm hmm. After all that goes down, we go back to the classroom with Deku walking in and he's fully expecting to kind of get roasted. Yes. But everybody comes walking up to him and was like, man, that was so cool. You're so cool. Hey, man, did you know that you're kind of awesome?
00:48:32
Speaker
And he was like, wow, I have friends. No, you have fans, Deku. Wow. You've made it. You've only got fans. Some might say only fans, Deku. Only fans heard. Only fans, only heroes. Here we go. Oh,
Episode Nine Recap and Class Rep Election
00:48:48
Speaker
it's like that episode of The Boys. Oh, God. Was it Crimson Crimson something? I think she was running a a page for Seth Rogen. Yep. That shit was fucking funny. No.
00:49:02
Speaker
But Deku looks around for Bakugo and he's like, oh, shit, he's already gone. And he runs outside and finds him and Bakugo is pissed. And he's like, you think I'm weak. You were holding back because I'm weak and you're a fucking pussy ass bitch boy. Fuck you. This bitch goes in existential crisis mode. You did really quickly. Mm hmm. Because, you know, hated that he was the best and now he's not. It was eye opening to him that like, oh, shit, I actually have to work harder because I am not where I need to be because people can one up me like he is very intimidated by Todoroki.
00:49:43
Speaker
I mean, yeah, that's the thing. He's the he's the best baseball player on his on his college team. And then he goes, all right, cool. I'm going to go to practice and like fucking Aaron judges their crank at four fifties. Yeah, he went from boy fish little pond to little fish in a big pond. Yeah, that was I'm sure an eye opening experience for him. But that doesn't mean he needs to be a piss boy. Nope. And all might comes out and is like, hey, man, It's OK. You'll be fine. It just tells off all my. Yeah, he's like, get fucked. Don't fucking touch me. i And that ends the episode itself. What we do get a nice little post credit scene.
00:50:25
Speaker
Yes. um Also, we we got a little thing where Deku tells Bakugo that like somebody gave him. Oh, yeah, but he inherited that. It's a borrowed quirk and that it's not quite yeah yet. And that he's going to strive his best to make it his own. And that's what gets Bakugo mad because he thinks he's lying. Yeah. Yeah, that's going to. be interesting to see how that adds up. But after all that, and we get the post credit scene, we see somebody reading a ah newspaper and talking about how All Might became a teacher and what would happen if the symbol of peace suddenly wasn't around any anymore. And then brings us to episode
00:51:08
Speaker
Nine. Nine. Our final episode for this watch. ah In this episode we see some normal school operations happen as class rep elections happen and ah we end on a field trip to the USJ where they fall into an ambush. ah leave this on a little bit of a cliffhanger going into the next one as we open up to see a whole bunch of reporters are gathered out of school and they're trying to get little like snippets of how all might is as a teacher and they keep on approaching people and it's very things of like oh yeah ah maybe and baka go saying hey fucking piss off bitch and so.
00:51:46
Speaker
They all go into school. We see that they try to pursue one of the students inside and the security that UA has in effect automatically triggers. You need to have a certain ID or a pass in order to get in. And since they don't have it, all these metallic walls just shoot up and bar the entrance. After that, we go to the classroom. I saw where we used this combat training. He gives Deco a little bit like, hey, you did your thing again. In the future, it can be good if it's useful. um So keep on working on it, but also don't fucking hurt yourself. It's stupid. Anyway, we have this other stuff to attend to like, oh, no. And then he's like, got to figure out who's going to be a rep. And so everyone is like, it's me. Choose me. And everyone wants to vote for themselves because this is very much. Yeah, because when you're a pro hero, you have your jet. Sorry. When you expect me to go West Side Story. I did it. yeah I did it. I also expected more from it.
00:52:44
Speaker
That's all I know. ah Anyway, but yeah. ah Less West Side Story, more My Hero Story. oh Yeah, snaps for you, buddy. ah um The reason that you only be class rep is because when you're a pro hero, you have your agency that you're in charge of. You usually have other heroes as your sidekicks that work under you. And so it shows that you have those leadership capabilities and really proves you as a pro hero.
00:53:20
Speaker
So there everyone's jumping at the bit for it ah is like no election let's make it to my credit jumping at the bed. Yeah chomping at the yeah yeah i know. Okay i say but i say i'm just making sure but yeah no again we've established this i talk before i think. ah Yup. But yeah, they all take a little vote. Deku gets three, Ayorozu gets two, um and then Eda gets no votes. Big sad for Eda. We find out later in the cafeteria that Eda and Uraraka voted for Deku. And so that's cool. We find out also that Eda is a legacy hero. His family is the Ingenium people. It's essentially him just, they all have that same quirk.
00:54:07
Speaker
And his brother is a super established pro hero that has 65 sidekicks that work underneath him. Insane. That's a big that's a lot of people like big ass fucking number. I know he's super rich and everything, but like holy shit. Yeah. Well, it's funny because Raraka is even like, you're rich, aren't you? I can tell. And then that's how it all comes across. I can smell it on you. Yeah. And then as they're talking and alarm starts going off, everything breaks into chaos as people try to swarm the doors, trying to figure out what the fuck is going on. Ita looks out the window, sees reporters have made it in and are trying to, again, get a little interview from All Might. Weird that they got inside. President Mike has a little aside with us. I saw why he's like, technically they're trespassing.
00:54:51
Speaker
That's breaking the law so that makes them village so we can just like take it out right. And then I thought it has to be like, no, no, they're actually people, not a smart move. ah And so that's a fun little thing that happens. Ita sees that it's reporters, goes over to Uraraka, floats up and flies to the front of the doors looking like the exit sign and yells everyone like, everyone remain calm. It's fine. Don't be stupid. Go about your business. It's just the press. Those fuckers.
00:55:24
Speaker
And yeah, we get normalcy resuming after that. Eda was able to get everyone back in order. Then we go back to the classroom after that and Deku's like, hey, Eda did a cool thing. Let's make him class rep because he's probably better suited and he wants it more than I do. So, good. ah So Eda's new class rep, Yayourozu is still second even though she technically got more votes than Eda to start off. More votes than Eda did. Yeah, making her a little salty. But she doesn't like throw a tantrum over it. No, it's just sort of like, oh, I wanted that. But yeah, like imagine if that was Bakugo. Yeah, she so she's very refined and you will find out a lot about her in the future as we get to know everyone in the class a little bit more.
00:56:08
Speaker
Also a rich kid, I'm assuming. Oh, a hundred percent. Yeah. One hundred percent. Prediction. Right. yeah Nailed it. Oh, not even going to, you know, lead your honor. I think you nailed it. ah Then we get to see a shot of the front gate. It's when as you is up there talking with recovery girl. Thirteen is standing there as well, though you don't really get to see her. And also Miss Midnight as well. A very scandalously clad. hero who What were your thoughts on
USJ Rescue Training
00:56:41
Speaker
that costume?
00:56:42
Speaker
Hold on, I'm looking up a picture of it because I honestly do not remember that much. It was Miss Midnight. It's midnight or just me. Oh, I'm for it. Yep. I figured you would be. Oh, I'm for it. More on her in the next season. But yeah, the front gate where the giant fucking metal things that pop up were completely destroyed, letting the press in. So That's who's like, you know, the press got in, but also there was an actual villain here that infiltrated U.A. and we didn't know about it. So that's spooky, spooky, spooky. That's fun. We get a little thing of all night doing some hearing stuff on his morning commute. Find out that he can't stop not stopping. So he just continuously is doing all these hero things and he starts running through his timer. There's another problem across town. Weird.
00:57:37
Speaker
a um anyway they all take a uh is that the fucking batman transition music from the 60s it would never be uh Holy shit, guy. Yeah, ugh, nailing it. As he goes jumping through town, looking like he's flying, um we get a little answer to the question that you would pose of like, hey, are there multiple almights if he can just pass on his power? No! ah We get a little thing inside of his brain being like, you know, my powers are fading even faster now that I've transferred some of my power to young Midoriya.
00:58:13
Speaker
So it is getting transferred instead of just, you know, multiplying. So that's fun. Little answer for you. Nailed it. Do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we do we Do you think that this is an anime where we're not gonna, you know, explore one of the main characters and their backstory?

It is a try hard already has like his little whistle going as I

Get in line, bitches. And we found out that Deku... That formation for the bus. Yeah, bus formation. And everyone's in their hero costumes because they're excited to go and do that. Except for Deku, who's just in his gym uniform, which is his UA thing with a couple of gloves and some pads because his costume is fucked from the fight with Bakugo. But yeah, they get on the bus. Deku gets compared to All Might by Sue, the frog person who is becoming your favorite person. Yes! Sue! But this was ah your reaction to ah Sue. I think I stan the frog.
00:59:46
Speaker
It's just so out of place. You stand, Sue heard. The boys are going to roast me to the moon. No, it's just a cool character. It's all good. I don't believe you.

I've heard him talk like three or four times now. And he sounds like I know he's from attack on Titan. And he sounds so fucking familiar. I'm going to I'm going to make a guess now and you can tell me if I'm totally wrong. Yeah. OK, hold on. I'm going to I'm going to give myself better odds here. Are they a Titan or are they not a Titan? Yes. Perfect. So my guess was Zeke.
01:02:16
Speaker
Uh, no. Is it peak? It is not. Can it be peak? Mmm, you'll find out. Uh, Zeke is in this later though. You're a bitch. Oh, let's go. Yeah. But yeah, no fun stuff along the horizon for my year and I'm excited for you to get me more, more characters. Yeah. Uh, hell yeah. Um, but yeah, they're on the bus. Uh, Sue makes a comparison in between All Might and Deku. Sue! Dun, dun, dun. ah do do do do do do
01:02:47
Speaker
um um And then Deku's like, oh shit, ah no, I'm not like All Might, it's all good. And then they're like, no, All Might doesn't hurt himself, so they can't have the same thing. Yeah, so that's cool. ah Shit on a little bit, Deku.
Fun Banter and Tense Villain Invasion
01:03:02
Speaker
Then we got some fun banter, some good talks going on. It's, you know, cool to just see, you know, kids being kids, superhero kids being kids. Like that enjoy that a little bit of camaraderie they start talking about how flashy powers are in baka go into roky although no one would really. so Support baka go cuz he's an asshole and baka go proceeds to get teased by several people they don't arrive it's easy to reach cuz you're a bitch.
01:03:34
Speaker
now anyway they get to the usj i didn't know that one uh she's a brick house but you're a bitch now is what i changed the words to what the hell is she's a brick house ah she's a brick house how old Oh, yeah, there you go. I had to put the base in there, you know, that's honestly what sold it. Get that funk. Oh, anyway, they make it to the U.S.J., which is like this big dome that has all these different biomes inside for all these different rescue operations. We see a rescue pro hero 13 who has a quirk of black hole who can suck some shit up to into a black box to make it. Yeah. Yeah. It's like black hole Baymax.
01:04:19
Speaker
um Black hole Baymax Yep, that's also another song Soundgarden. Yeah, ah we're doing my hero karaoke apparently um But USJ stands for unforeseen simulation joint. ah It has all these different from biomes. They all get ready. um They're like, oh, where's All Might? And then it turns out he used up all of his hero time doing some heroing today and is no longer able to be in his hero form. Probably not a good thing. it' Probably not a good thing.
01:04:54
Speaker
as, ah you know, the villains fucking um show up. We get Kirigiri opens up a warp and lets all these other villains in, including the same villain that was teased and also was shown lurking by the press in the front of this episode who could have potentially broken down the door to UA. Oh no! And then I was like, oh no. Oh, this is a simulation. This is fine. And then Azawa was getting ready for battle. He goes, no, these are actual, actual villains. Stay back. And then shit's going to happen. Is Azawa about to casually take out like 35 people? Oh, my guy.
01:05:36
Speaker
um There is this thing called the rule of ninjas if it's one person versus one person intense fight if it's we're not allowed to step in Exactly if it's one person versus 50 people You bet your ass he's wiping the floor with like all those ninjas then just get actually weaker the more there are So he's about to just wipe. Yes. Let's go, baby. I'm so excited for it. Oh, as am I. Oh, yeah. So other thing that I have from this is we had a little tender moment in between Deco and Araraka right before the whole Bakugo thing ah where there was like a little bit of blushing on Deco's part. And I asked if you shipped it. And this is what you think. Be her Sugawara.
01:06:22
Speaker
Do you ship it? No. Are you don't ship Deku and Uraraka? I do not. I ship Uraraka and Bakugo. Which I could because I don't know for me, I don't see it. It's just a prediction. Yeah, because I think there's going to be character growth. Yeah. From Bakugo and it's going to be a very war and peace. Yeah. Type situation. Well, you don't think that's Sue and Bakugo? Oh, God.
01:06:56
Speaker
I think Bakugo might just like blow her up before she gets anywhere near. yeah There are couples in this event. Oh, I'm sure it's a high school or it's like not official, but like, oh, they definitely have feelings for each other type thing. it's a high school of course yeah so i'll be uh interested to see how that goes going forward and seeing all the different ships uh seeing how the ships shape out you know it'll be good but yeah that's the end of our uh my hero episode discussion
01:07:30
Speaker
