Fair enough. I was just going by more than one person saying the 1st didn't have a quirk to pass on, since I figured they knew more about that than I do.  I guess the key word would be "new"? He will have 7 total, but only 6 new ones, and only 5 yet to be acquired?

Lighten the hell up.
 It was a good episode, and the puny purple pervert's actions weren't atrocious.

Mineta is an annoying pervert who we're supposed to believe means well, but it's really no different than Bakugō, who remains a hot-headed jerk and outright mean and dismissive towards people he thinks of as inferiors even as he's gotten slightly better, Monoma, or any of the other parade of highly flawed kids. Bakugō is arguably worse since people seemed to love him even as a jerk, while the show does nothing to portray Mineta's actions as any better than Monoma. (Separate from issues like Endeavor.)
Some of the kids are jerks. |

Damn. The reviewer really has a hate-boner for Monoma.

And so ends an arc about a bunch of characters who are almost definitely never going to be relevant again, a thing a series that already has a problem managing its massive cast really didn't need.
That said, we're on to bigger and better things soon. |

That is quite the assumption considering the manga hasn't ended yet. |

Mineta is a walking slapstick joke, we are meant to love to hate him so we laugh when Zero tangles him with his tape or Jiro stabs his eye. The show is quite transparent with this, that's also why when it was revealed he is top 10 on grades Kaminari told him "Characters like you are only likeable when they are fools" |

I just wish he were, on some level, funny. Superficial slapstick perversion somehow doesn't feel like much of a gag.
Not much else to say about the latest episode, really. Still think Deku becoming multi-power-man is an uninteresting direction for the story, and, separately, that this arc was bottled, unnecessary ennui. Hopin' the next arc's got more main-plot energy; has been a while since I've been genuinely excited about MHA. I think I actually have been looking forward mot to DragonQuest: Adventure of Dai this season than MHA, which I never expected. |

Personally, I find him funny but obviously, not everyone finds that kind of humor enjoyable. I just love the absurd amount of effort he must have put in to not only get himself into a position that he could block the shot but also have himself get pushed back into Mina.
Trust me everyone felt this way when it happened in the manga but thankfully they do a good job making it work moving forward.
Yeah, this arc is definitely a low point for the series but thankfully it does pick up after this. Honestly, I wish they could have just rushed through this arc but there are only like 2 or 3 more completed arcs before they catch up the manga so I get why they stretched this arc out to fill the entire cour. |

I've enjoyed this arc a lot, these types of competitions are engaging than the big fights against the League of Evil. Uraraka was the best in this match than I've seen her in the entire show up until now. I like how determined and single mined she was, as so far they've never really done much with her to this degree.

This arc took a bunch of superpowered teenagers and smacked them into each other and was thus Good, Actually. Too many flashbacks, but that's just the Hero Academia anime for you.

Pinky giving Mineta the Ludovico aversion therapy (Clockwork Orange) was funny. But...what was she showing him?

Studio BONES rearranged scenes around in this episode.
Nothing that's too concerning mind you, although with where this season ends off it makes sense. Especially with the 3rd movie taking place during the events of the end of the season. |

I suppose they moved this mini arc since the next movie takes place during this time frame and would be confusing for anime-onlys.
Not a huge deal but, as the reviewer says, kinda out of place, specially since this is the spoiler[final "Happy" episode so now we will have more dark stuff pilled together without a break] |
