...Hey Nick, hate to break it to you but Hot Wings is the shipping name for Dabi and Hawks. It's a perfectly acceptable mistake to make, considering Hawks is hot and he has wings Laughing

For anybody wondering how long the Todoroki soap opera will last:

spoiler[It's still going.]

Anyways, I always appreciated how the series immediately disclosed that Hawks was a double agent, I hate when writers try really hard to make you believe the obviously not-a-traitor is one.

As if Monoma didn't give me enough reasons to hate him. I was hoping in the back of my mind that Aizawa would choke him until his head popped off of his neck.

I quite enjoyed this episode even though it was mostly some more setup. I still can’t get over One for All’s actor being the same as Keiicha Maebara from Higurashi. I’ve heard varying opinions about this arc with the fanbase seeming split on it. I can kind of understand because we get a intriguing mystery setup with what’s happening with Deku’s quirk only for it to get kicked to the side for some more school tournament stuff. I’m really enjoying Shinso being added to the group and I hope he gets into the Hero Course, homely class 1A so we can see more of him on a regular basis. The bit I really liked was how his speech about how he isn’t here to make friends, but to win and surpass everyone, they all politely clapped start praying his attitude. His personality seems to be a mix between Bakugo and Aizawa so that’s pretty interesting. But yeah this episode just flew by when the episode ended I was surprised because it didn’t feel like I was watching for that long.

We all love the fights in these series, but this fight between class a and b seems to me an excuse to fill in and do some recap.

Recap involves something we have already seen before. We have only had glimpses of 1B and that is only surrounding TetsuTetsu, Kendo and Monoma. We don't even know a single thing about the rest of them.

Heh, Uraraka's eyebrow twitched when Deku talked about Hatsume.

Was just me or they used the excuse of Tsuyu's semi-invisibility to animate certain part
of her anatomy extremely well this episode?

That angle of Froppy was awkward and I did not like it. I doubt that type of angle would have been used for a male character.

Froppy was talking and they decided to show her butt instead of her face. Weird.

^Relative to these comments I find there are a number of artistic changes this season and especially in Ep92 so maybe those are part of that? Does anyone know if the studio changed this season or maybe there is a new crew?

It's still done by Bones. Same directors and screen writer.

These types of scenarios tend to be used to introduce the audience to characters that haven't been very involved that will factor into a future arc involving the overarching bad guys of the series. The audience might not feel invested in the stakes of some character they barely know fighting a villain, and dumping it right before a confrontation tends to fall flat since it seems like a last minute attempt at characterization.

the power of decay as an extant for of life

I assume there's an extra word in there, but since I don't know what this power actually is, I can't tell which word is extra, or even what the sentence means. Both "decay as an extant of life" and "an extant for life" sound like nonsense to me. Confused I'm also unfamiliar with the use of "extant" as a noun rather than an adjective, which confuses me further.

Actually a lot simpler than that. I missed the m on the end of "form"
