EPISODE REVIEWS

I like it :)

I loved this episode! Studio Bones is so good at making anime-original content that it genuinely felt canon to the manga. This episode was hilarious, interesting, and entertaining enough to keep you watching the whole time.

The Big Three might actually share one brain cell because why were they so funny and a little unhinged? 😭 I kinda felt bad for Amajiki here, the poor guy just wanted to go home. This episode was really entertaining and surprisingly good.

Episode Context

Season 5 kicks off with a high-energy palette cleanser after the brutal Endeavor vs. Nomu clash that closed out Season 4. Class 1-A runs through an emergency drill that doubles as a reintroduction to the full roster, Midoriya, Bakugo, Todoroki, and the rest showcase their Quirks while the Big 3 (Mirio, Nejire, and Tamaki) raise the stakes as upperclassmen opponents. The tone is deliberately lighthearted and fun, leaning into humor and team dynamics rather than heavy drama. Expect snappy action sequences built around creative Quirk combos and plenty of personality clashes. It functions as a warm-up lap: reminding you what everyone brings to the table, re-establishing class chemistry, and generating momentum before the season shifts into higher gear. A solid runway episode that rewards familiarity with the cast.
