I love that when the heroes start to get separated Aizawa's first instinct is to just GRAB Midoriya, he's like oh no I am not letting you out of my sight for a SECOND you problem child
Rappa is such a freaking Chad this episode. I love how, despite wanting to beat them more than anything, he recognized that all of them were too messed up to continue fighting, so he let Fat Gum and Kirishima patch themselves up. That's something a regular villain would never do. Rappa kinda reminds me of Inosuke; he's got the same kind of simple-minded will to win and improve.
@@nico-v113I think that’s fitting based on what fat gum tells him- it’s the “real world”- there is no second chance, he’s a villain and he lost and now he’s going to jail for a very long time.
(At 7:30) This is why I like Rappa, because he's almost as understanding as Stain… in his own way. That and surprisingly a lot more "cooperative" toward the heroes after losing with his arms in pain.
The League of Villains may have been truly introduced in season three, but season four onward is when the show really starts to flesh out their characters. They're a compelling, and at times oddly likable, group of antagonists.
I can see that Muscular and Rappa is very similar. But where they are different is when Rappa see someone that have given them all, but still lost he wants them too continue living so he can fight them later. But Muscular wouldn’t hesitate to kill them.
I get what Montana is saying about Rappa. He would never be a hero for moral reasons, but he could be convinced to team up with heroes to help take down a particularly impressive villain just so he could fight them. The kind of fighter who the heroes feel comfortable releasing Rappa on because they're on a whole nother level anyway. Like some villains in later seasons.
i can't find a way to connect this fact to the episode except overhaul playing the game with shigaraki but ... FUN FACT spinner and shigi canonicly play league of legends together
@@carlbowen7965 Pretty sure Shigaraki was using gaming terminology before the League became a thing. He was calling people "players" and "bosses" before the Stain thing, and that's the event that drew most of the members to him to begin with.
Characterizing villains as more than just evil enemies almost always makes for a far more interesting story. Toga and Twice's friendship makes people view them in a new light and shows that they're people who are still capable of caring for others despite being the antagonists.
Ye but they feel more like thugs.They don’t feel as menacing as dc villains or villains from like other animes that use their intelligence and actually scary.All for one was kinda close to menacing as he is intelligent to some degree.
@PeakSight-kv6wi first of all , all of this villains are incredibly smart , that's ironically enough the point of this episode, that shigi has some brain and puts thought into his plans and so does twice and toga second: being a menacing villains isn't being a good villain
I really love the fact Kirishima's character is representing the meaning of manlynes, but not in the toxic way. From the other hand, there is a representation of toxic masculinity in this show and this is so so great. I love perspective of how it impacts lives and what's the difference
(At 9:55) Now this story of Rappa, got me a little worried. Because we get to hear how he became so much more bulkier against someone who overpowered and one shot him, repeatedly. Did you noticed how small he was and his muscles were compared to then and now?
Chisaki might have had something to do with that (Rappa + some steaks + Overhaul -> bulkier Rappa), though I doubt Rappa would've been OK with "cheating" that way, so it's probably just training (or Chisaki made him a little bit stronger every time he rebuilt him, without Rappa noticing). Another neat thing about Rappa is that his quirk isn't super strength, or speed, or endurance, or anything like that. He's got slightly more articulated shoulders. That's all. So while that might help him punch a bit faster, or stronger, his strength is 99% due to training and skill (and maybe whatever extra muscles Chisaki gave him). (Toga's also similar, in that she mostly uses stealth and martial arts, which have absolutely nothing to do with her quirk.)
@@mbpoblet not to mention on Vigilante (spin off which is mostly Canon) he was involved in Mirko's backstory, going up against o'clock/Knuckleduster who was undercover by the name "The Ripper". While back then, Rappa during the time went by the name "The Rapper" (as lazy as that sounds).
istg it there's one thing mha is ( imo ) superior in compared to other shounens , it's the chemistry between the villains, they're not just a bunch of random people who forcefully work together for a certain goal, they really feel like a fond family who care about each other and each other's goals and work together and FOR together, which i REALLY REALLY LOVE
What's more, that's connected to some real concerns within a society and WHY they're villains in the first place, all while not quite making them rebels or anti-heroes. It's really impressive.
And it's a part of the plot. There's a certain sentence from a certain character in one of the latest manga chapters that really drives that home. And i love it.
oh btw you can read more about rappa's tume in the underground tournament in the spin-off manga : vigilantes pretty cool series even as a stand-alone , totally worth a read
He's a man!! Toga Himiko is my second favorite character. I would join the League over the Yakuza. With Shigaraki, he takes his peers thoughts into consideration. They're a team of players in this big video game.
Plz do not skip the endding theme songs to EP 6.3 6.11 there is one more but I can't remember it ! Plz do not miss out ! The changes doing the ending there of 6,3 hit hard and have much more of an important
Oh my, that next episode is coming fast. So many mixed feelings about it but Mirio is such a force when he gets motivated that i cant wait to see it again
Idk if they are full if themselves but you have a point, there's a lot of pros that should get access to them that could use them, like Rocklock and Aizawa this episode, even the police at the place has those vests on,and I get why the students wouldn't get access to them yet, but still
@@arielmartinez94 Especially funny in the case of Aizawa. His scarf is made of a special, highly durable material! Have Hatsume slap that stuff on a vest!
@@arielmartinez94I can see the argument in the case of Rocklock, but Aizawa's main form of offense is reliant on stealth, agility, and mobility. The added weight of Kevlar would interfere with his fighting style. This is the case with most heroes we see actually, the vest would just be a hinderance in most situations especially in Japan where guns are rare and most villains would be reliant CQC and their quirks regardless.
This episode is weird to say a brief wind down in the Overhaul raid if you ask me but it’s also mainly setup so who am I to hold it against it being stuck between two BELOVED episodes in this arc. I have nothing against this episode other than it just has a rough role to be where it is. Overhaul hasn’t gotten away FULLY thankfully but he’s found time to set the stage for MORE waves in this number whittling method to come front and center. And somehow has a cooperative TOGA AND TWICE there to cover for him. Which we can put on hold for now. Overhaul knows what he has can derail all of society and is happy to throw all those loyal to exclusively his boss to the wolves because all he needs is himself and the Yakuza boss to keep the Shie Hassaikai alive. Not that even some of his CLOSEST MEMBERS don’t seem to notice or care how much is being thrown aside as garbage. And I know it’s villains but JEEZ is it rough to see so little value or appreciation for his minions although not perfectly, ARE doing what has been assigned of them. Fat Gum is left with everyone in the room being absolutely TRASHED from the fight last time. Rappa has broken arms and likely many other injuries, I have no idea how the likes of Tengai SURVIVED when Rappa took the same hit and is BUILT for this level of combat while he is not. And Kirishima once again is just SHATTERED after all this and has managed to beat Deku’s broken bone record. (Let’s say as beat up and unresponsive as he looks, that’s STILL censored. He had holes blown into his arms at the BEGINNING and then dove in to stall for Fat Gum at THAT level of injury cost) Which as we saw in the Todoroki battle and Muscular battle ESPECIALLY that record is not one you want to be CLOSE to much less hold the crown of a record like THIS! Fat Gum gives Kirishima all the validation and concern that he deserves for everything he’s done, and it makes me SO HAPPY to just be in the moment and put everything into being proud of him, acknowledging his accomplishments and also just being UNHOLY levels of concerned holding a kid with a shattered skeleton. And I just think SEE?! Aizawa, All-Might, Gran Torino, Sir Nighteye, and EVERYONE OTHER THAN URARAKA, THAT is how you validate heroism, the feelings of the selfless, AND giving true care for his wellbeing in a non destructive fashion! Why can’t DEKU get this?! Also while reflecting on what he’s become he talks about pestering Amajiki into submission. He seems to have ALSO forgotten that Amajiki deliberately invited him to speak about work studies AND intended to introduce him to Fat Gum. (Likely after Kirishima called Mirio “Unrivaled”) Both Amajiki AND Kirishima said that Kirishima made demands of Amajiki, and Fat Gum is the only one that says it like it really happened with the official invite. Rappa is STILL up. Surely he’s going to fight while broken to insure that the fight ends on a satisfying note! Nope! He COMPLETELY breaks the expectation says the fight is on hold because none of them can fight anymore and that means they can’t fight to the absolute finish. So better to patch themselves up and try again for a more proper rematch challenge. This man is ABSOLUTELY evil Goku mindset. Healing your opponents while exhausted and crippled? Gotta put respect on Rappa here. Pushing Tengai down, and just saying his world is his ring. Stepping into his ring doesn’t give you his respect it’s proving to be an actual challenge. And he LOVED this challenge. Not caring about getting arrested, not about the drug operation, not apart of ANY of that because it’s ALL he wants. Seriously put the guy in the ring with pro heroes and just let them loose and Rappa would have the time of his life. (Even if no one dies on this level of combat) But it all comes at the revelation that Rappa has lost to Overhaul 5 times. I think Rappa is the fastest member of the Hassaikai period. And it’s NOT close. But Overhaul CAN just 1-shot him at a mere touch. So all he has to do is have his hand in the way and Rappa can’t get a win in. So we’re in for a RIDE with what’s going on outside this field. Rocklock finally gets his moment. To lock things down in time and space completely shackled is just a crazy effect. I can assume he wanted to use his quirk to freeze people like Overhaul in place but knows his limits can be reached quickly while Mimic is going nuts. AND he can’t even stop him entirely. Thankfully Deku is just blasting through these projectile….walls. And it’s getting thicker and thicker. If Mimic can’t keep them back, he’s forced into separating them to cause chaos. And who better than the league to do that. Toga and Twice have entered the field as the next wave. I’ll just cause them the chaotic wave. Toga has a copy made by Twice and just waits for Rocklock to commit to dealing with her double. (SUPER cool move to block the knife and lock in space so she can’t press it any further disarming her at the same time. Plus his punch is hard enough to break an arm pretty resoundingly.) And the moment he breaks it, she breaks HIM. And quickly has to commit to being an imposter. This is the exact moment that the heroes realize Toga was on the provisional license field with how Camie was acting and how her body melted the mass off her when Toga was layering disguises. (Still don’t know what happened to real Camie) Deku gets to look at his harasser/stalker in the eye this time. And this time people will believe him I’m sure. And injuring Aizawa is NEVER a good thing right before the waves we truly need him for. And Toga is JUST so happy she came. And that’s…a choice in phrasing. Also for anyone that thinks Uraraka and Deku’s time together is not as much anymore and just Uraraka just obsessing over Deku, Deku appears to be learning some basics of Gunhead Martial Arts dodging JUST like Uraraka did on camp. So it stands to reason she’s been helping him on the side like Iida helps with Deku’s leg style combat. The trio stands together. And then there’s what just HAS to be my favorite scene of the episode. Sir Nighteye vs Rappa. Twice just waltzes in to face the police squad while Toga is off spazzing over Deku and throws one of the most fearsome bruisers we’ve seen. AND NIGHTEYE DOESN’T EVEN NEED FORESIGHT TO DODGE ABOUT A MACH 10 VILLAIN. Remember when I said he has likely tested his reaction time with Gran Torino? Yeah here’s your proof he can likely handle his Mach 20 feats or above depending when he did this testing. Then he throws personal seals so hard he makes it look like he just used the FORCE on Rappa RIGHT THROUGH A SEVERAL FOOT CONCRETE STEEL ENFORCED WALL and he holds them like freaking pencils. THOSE ARE 11 LBS. WHAT THE HECK. Even Twice just looks back in complete in utter shock like he didn’t even register the throw happening AT ALL. And mind you, Twice’s copies are the same size, same weight, same gear, move the same, think the same, and last for indefinite amounts of time, provided they aren’t hit by an impact that proportionately breaks the bone of the copy. Rappa’s shoulders rotate at around Mach 10, and it took Fat Gum’s entire fat layer to go both through Tengai’s shield and break both Rappa AND Tengai. Nighteye can just flick his wrist THAT hard WITHOUT charging for any amount of serious effort. I do NOT think Tengai’s shield can hold up to Nighteye watching Rappa get blasted RIGHT THROUGH THE WALL. That is just UNBELIEVABLE. OFA correlated heroes are BROKEN. I do REALLY like how the league just like Class A is a family. Toga and Twice are especially great bouncing off one another. Twice probably at his depth doesn’t actually mean any level of harm. And it bleeds off on Toga who wants to cause nothing BUT harm. I mean, love her crushes at the expense of all else take your pick. But she actively chooses to go to Twice instead of more attacks on Deku. And finally we have one of the biggest question marks. Shigaraki SHOCKINGLY cooperated with Overhaul regarding an EXTREMELY unfavorable deal between the two. Overhaul kills one of Shigaraki’s ranks, cripples another, then says I’ll tell you my plan in compensation, AND THEN demands not 1, not 2, BUT 3 LEAGUE MEMBERS to join his ranks to be used. Shigaraki withholds Kurogiri sure so he can do his own thing, but Shigaraki SHOCKINGLY complies. (Does anyone else find it weird that Dabi is not at ALL under consideration? Compress and Spinner I get from Overhaul’s perspective but not Dabi?! He’s the uncontested strongest member outside Shigaraki himself!) Neither Toga OR Twice want ANY part of it because BOTH cared a great deal for Big Sis Mag. And then question if they are just tools to be used by Shigaraki and their own loyalties as a result of such an unfavorable decision. Shigaraki states he is doing this for infiltration and knows that he can’t let them off the hook. And Toga and Twice are just so chaotic and see the “tools” of the Yakuza they just know not to stick around anymore. So what do they do? Decide to mess around with the villain Mimic who has been the single biggest obstacle so far. If he messes up, the heroes have near free rein. And I love how this all connects to the game Overhaul and Shigaraki play where you can take and use the other players pieces. And while Shigaraki may be new at it, he’s a gamer through and through and wanted to turn the table when it came time. And Mimic is NOT having any of this. This episode isn’t lacking and it’s not like it’s not fun. But it is between 2 episodes with maximum hype levels. It’s like an 8/10 between 2 10’s. And we all know what we’re waiting on for next episode. This arc just rules to me.
This is not the first time Rappa and FatGum were in the same place. There was an incident with instant villains drugged with trigger during an underground mma tournament. Rappa was helping a pro hero take down a villain while FatGum who was patrolling the streets outside tried to stop escaping villains. FatGum was notably slimmer in his early days and wanted to get bigger when he saw all might handle a bunch of villains with ease. Also Rappa had a more wrestler mask compared to the one now with a beak. He's not completely unreasonable. He's only being forced to help overhaul so that he can fight him again. Against the drugged up fighters losing control of their quirk, he was asked not to go too hard on them. At the end of the day, he's someone who wants people to live to their fullest and give it their all. If he hadnt been taken by overhaul and taken by someone like FatGum, he couldve easily been a hero
Rappa is forreal one of my favorite antagonists in the series. "Evil Goku" is right; if you five him a good fight, it doesn't matter whose side you're on. You have Rappa's respect. I'd like to see him come back later on the side of the heroes. I think it's within the realm of possibility.
@tobofu5978 Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't Rappa also meet a certain rabbit hero in that spinoff? I could totally see the two of them being chummy, despite being on opposite sides.
@@tobofu5978 I know I write Rappa off as a villain, but he’s more like chaotic neutral. Like he takes the side of most resistance not least at every opportunity. I think Fat Gum might just be my favorite pro hero that’s not All-Might. All-Might for his various nuanced complexities win out for character, but I’d LOVE to work for Fat Gum. I’d probably pick Fat Gum as my mentor if I were to choose one.
@@HaydrogenBombit actually seems more SANE he spares his opponents than when Goku does it. BECAUSE he’s a villain. And that’s hysterical. Because it’s easy to respect Fat Gum and Kirishima for standing up to him. And then you look at who GOKU spares with little to no issue or resistance and people STILL question the decision to this day.
Kenny, the 2nd movie is actually set between ep 12 and 13 of season 5, If you watch before the first arc of season 5, Montana might get spoiled on some big things
I don't know if you see this comment but I would like you to take into consideration the anime Clannad and its sequel Clannad After Story. I love seeing your reactions and as a couple I feel you will love this series, it changed my life. Support me with a Like so they can see my comment.
The more flashbacks they show, the more overhaul keeps chopping the branch hes standing on. He underestimates or doesnt comprehend the crazy of LoVs members. Hes just a businessman dealing in drugs which is frowned upon by older yakuza. Their evil bar is very low compared to LoVs members.
Imagine having the ability to disassemble and assemble a person, like it was an object. The way you want it, just by touching that person. It's reasonable to think that Overhaul would lose his humanity. You will realize, in time, that a Quirk Society is not sustainable.
Intensely disagree. It's all a matter of how one uses it. Overhaul could've been an amazing doctor or medic. Instead a group of amoral criminals found him and enabled his worst personality issues.
@@relic5752 yeah but he grew up being poor and isolated. The only one who was nice to him was a Yakuza. Imagine being a kid raised that way. It's all a matter of perception

This episode is weird to say a brief wind down in the Overhaul raid if you ask me but it’s also mainly setup so who am I to hold it against it being stuck between two BELOVED episodes in this arc. I have nothing against this episode other than it just has a rough role to be where it is.
Overhaul hasn’t gotten away FULLY thankfully but he’s found time to set the stage for MORE waves in this number whittling method to come front and center. And somehow has a cooperative TOGA AND TWICE there to cover for him. Which we can put on hold for now. Overhaul knows what he has can derail all of society and is happy to throw all those loyal to exclusively his boss to the wolves because all he needs is himself and the Yakuza boss to keep the Shie Hassaikai alive. Not that even some of his CLOSEST MEMBERS don’t seem to notice or care how much is being thrown aside as garbage. And I know it’s villains but JEEZ is it rough to see so little value or appreciation for his minions although not perfectly, ARE doing what has been assigned of them.
Fat Gum is left with everyone in the room being absolutely TRASHED from the fight last time. Rappa has broken arms and likely many other injuries, I have no idea how the likes of Tengai SURVIVED when Rappa took the same hit and is BUILT for this level of combat while he is not. And Kirishima once again is just SHATTERED after all this and has managed to beat Deku’s broken bone record. (Let’s say as beat up and unresponsive as he looks, that’s STILL censored. He had holes blown into his arms at the BEGINNING and then dove in to stall for Fat Gum at THAT level of injury cost) Which as we saw in the Todoroki battle and Muscular battle ESPECIALLY that record is not one you want to be CLOSE to much less hold the crown of a record like THIS!
Fat Gum gives Kirishima all the validation and concern that he deserves for everything he’s done, and it makes me SO HAPPY to just be in the moment and put everything into being proud of him, acknowledging his accomplishments and also just being UNHOLY levels of concerned holding a kid with a shattered skeleton. And I just think SEE?! Aizawa, All-Might, Gran Torino, Sir Nighteye, and EVERYONE OTHER THAN URARAKA, THAT is how you validate heroism, the feelings of the selfless, AND giving true care for his wellbeing in a non destructive fashion! Why can’t DEKU get this?! Also while reflecting on what he’s become he talks about pestering Amajiki into submission. He seems to have ALSO forgotten that Amajiki deliberately invited him to speak about work studies AND intended to introduce him to Fat Gum. (Likely after Kirishima called Mirio “Unrivaled”) Both Amajiki AND Kirishima said that Kirishima made demands of Amajiki, and Fat Gum is the only one that says it like it really happened with the official invite.
Rappa is STILL up. Surely he’s going to fight while broken to insure that the fight ends on a satisfying note! Nope! He COMPLETELY breaks the expectation says the fight is on hold because none of them can fight anymore and that means they can’t fight to the absolute finish. So better to patch themselves up and try again for a more proper rematch challenge. This man is ABSOLUTELY evil Goku mindset. Healing your opponents while exhausted and crippled? Gotta put respect on Rappa here. Pushing Tengai down, and just saying his world is his ring. Stepping into his ring doesn’t give you his respect it’s proving to be an actual challenge. And he LOVED this challenge. Not caring about getting arrested, not about the drug operation, not apart of ANY of that because it’s ALL he wants. Seriously put the guy in the ring with pro heroes and just let them loose and Rappa would have the time of his life. (Even if no one dies on this level of combat) But it all comes at the revelation that Rappa has lost to Overhaul 5 times. I think Rappa is the fastest member of the Hassaikai period. And it’s NOT close. But Overhaul CAN just 1-shot him at a mere touch. So all he has to do is have his hand in the way and Rappa can’t get a win in. So we’re in for a RIDE with what’s going on outside this field.
Rocklock finally gets his moment. To lock things down in time and space completely shackled is just a crazy effect. I can assume he wanted to use his quirk to freeze people like Overhaul in place but knows his limits can be reached quickly while Mimic is going nuts. AND he can’t even stop him entirely. Thankfully Deku is just blasting through these projectile….walls. And it’s getting thicker and thicker.
If Mimic can’t keep them back, he’s forced into separating them to cause chaos. And who better than the league to do that. Toga and Twice have entered the field as the next wave. I’ll just cause them the chaotic wave. Toga has a copy made by Twice and just waits for Rocklock to commit to dealing with her double. (SUPER cool move to block the knife and lock in space so she can’t press it any further disarming her at the same time. Plus his punch is hard enough to break an arm pretty resoundingly.) And the moment he breaks it, she breaks HIM. And quickly has to commit to being an imposter. This is the exact moment that the heroes realize Toga was on the provisional license field with how Camie was acting and how her body melted the mass off her when Toga was layering disguises. (Still don’t know what happened to real Camie) Deku gets to look at his harasser/stalker in the eye this time. And this time people will believe him I’m sure. And injuring Aizawa is NEVER a good thing right before the waves we truly need him for. And Toga is JUST so happy she came. And that’s…a choice in phrasing.
Also for anyone that thinks Uraraka and Deku’s time together is not as much anymore and just Uraraka just obsessing over Deku, Deku appears to be learning some basics of Gunhead Martial Arts dodging JUST like Uraraka did on camp. So it stands to reason she’s been helping him on the side like Iida helps with Deku’s leg style combat. The trio stands together.
And then there’s what just HAS to be my favorite scene of the episode. Sir Nighteye vs Rappa. Twice just waltzes in to face the police squad while Toga is off spazzing over Deku and throws one of the most fearsome bruisers we’ve seen. AND NIGHTEYE DOESN’T EVEN NEED FORESIGHT TO DODGE ABOUT A MACH 10 VILLAIN. Remember when I said he has likely tested his reaction time with Gran Torino? Yeah here’s your proof he can likely handle his Mach 20 feats or above depending when he did this testing. Then he throws personal seals so hard he makes it look like he just used the FORCE on Rappa RIGHT THROUGH A SEVERAL FOOT CONCRETE STEEL ENFORCED WALL and he holds them like freaking pencils. THOSE ARE 11 LBS. WHAT THE HECK. Even Twice just looks back in complete in utter shock like he didn’t even register the throw happening AT ALL. And mind you, Twice’s copies are the same size, same weight, same gear, move the same, think the same, and last for indefinite amounts of time, provided they aren’t hit by an impact that proportionately breaks the bone of the copy. Rappa’s shoulders rotate at around Mach 10, and it took Fat Gum’s entire fat layer to go both through Tengai’s shield and break both Rappa AND Tengai. Nighteye can just flick his wrist THAT hard WITHOUT charging for any amount of serious effort. I do NOT think Tengai’s shield can hold up to Nighteye watching Rappa get blasted RIGHT THROUGH THE WALL. That is just UNBELIEVABLE. OFA correlated heroes are BROKEN.
I do REALLY like how the league just like Class A is a family. Toga and Twice are especially great bouncing off one another. Twice probably at his depth doesn’t actually mean any level of harm. And it bleeds off on Toga who wants to cause nothing BUT harm. I mean, love her crushes at the expense of all else take your pick. But she actively chooses to go to Twice instead of more attacks on Deku.
And finally we have one of the biggest question marks. Shigaraki SHOCKINGLY cooperated with Overhaul regarding an EXTREMELY unfavorable deal between the two. Overhaul kills one of Shigaraki’s ranks, cripples another, then says I’ll tell you my plan in compensation, AND THEN demands not 1, not 2, BUT 3 LEAGUE MEMBERS to join his ranks to be used. Shigaraki withholds Kurogiri sure so he can do his own thing, but Shigaraki SHOCKINGLY complies. (Does anyone else find it weird that Dabi is not at ALL under consideration? Compress and Spinner I get from Overhaul’s perspective but not Dabi?! He’s the uncontested strongest member outside Shigaraki himself!) Neither Toga OR Twice want ANY part of it because BOTH cared a great deal for Big Sis Mag. And then question if they are just tools to be used by Shigaraki and their own loyalties as a result of such an unfavorable decision. Shigaraki states he is doing this for infiltration and knows that he can’t let them off the hook. And Toga and Twice are just so chaotic and see the “tools” of the Yakuza they just know not to stick around anymore. So what do they do? Decide to mess around with the villain Mimic who has been the single biggest obstacle so far. If he messes up, the heroes have near free rein. And I love how this all connects to the game Overhaul and Shigaraki play where you can take and use the other players pieces. And while Shigaraki may be new at it, he’s a gamer through and through and wanted to turn the table when it came time. And Mimic is NOT having any of this.
This episode isn’t lacking and it’s not like it’s not fun. But it is between 2 episodes with maximum hype levels. It’s like an 8/10 between 2 10’s. And we all know what we’re waiting on for next episode. This arc just rules to me.
This is not the first time Rappa and FatGum were in the same place. There was an incident with instant villains drugged with trigger during an underground mma tournament. Rappa was helping a pro hero take down a villain while FatGum who was patrolling the streets outside tried to stop escaping villains. FatGum was notably slimmer in his early days and wanted to get bigger when he saw all might handle a bunch of villains with ease. Also Rappa had a more wrestler mask compared to the one now with a beak. He's not completely unreasonable. He's only being forced to help overhaul so that he can fight him again. Against the drugged up fighters losing control of their quirk, he was asked not to go too hard on them. At the end of the day, he's someone who wants people to live to their fullest and give it their all. If he hadnt been taken by overhaul and taken by someone like FatGum, he couldve easily been a hero
Rappa is forreal one of my favorite antagonists in the series. "Evil Goku" is right; if you five him a good fight, it doesn't matter whose side you're on. You have Rappa's respect. I'd like to see him come back later on the side of the heroes. I think it's within the realm of possibility.
@tobofu5978 Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't Rappa also meet a certain rabbit hero in that spinoff?
I could totally see the two of them being chummy, despite being on opposite sides.
@@tobofu5978 I know I write Rappa off as a villain, but he’s more like chaotic neutral. Like he takes the side of most resistance not least at every opportunity. I think Fat Gum might just be my favorite pro hero that’s not All-Might. All-Might for his various nuanced complexities win out for character, but I’d LOVE to work for Fat Gum. I’d probably pick Fat Gum as my mentor if I were to choose one.
@@HaydrogenBombit actually seems more SANE he spares his opponents than when Goku does it. BECAUSE he’s a villain. And that’s hysterical. Because it’s easy to respect Fat Gum and Kirishima for standing up to him. And then you look at who GOKU spares with little to no issue or resistance and people STILL question the decision to this day.
I love toga sm! I rlly wanna cosplay her
Kenny, the 2nd movie is actually set between ep 12 and 13 of season 5, If you watch before the first arc of season 5, Montana might get spoiled on some big things
"No one dies in my hero" but in season 6...
Next episode is one of the craziest... Can't wait for it.
Twice calls toga wifey and Toga calls Twice brother 😂
Eagerly awaiting both episodes next week!!!
I don't know if you see this comment but I would like you to take into consideration the anime Clannad and its sequel Clannad After Story. I love seeing your reactions and as a couple I feel you will love this series, it changed my life.
Support me with a Like so they can see my comment.
Next episode gonna hit hard
The more flashbacks they show, the more overhaul keeps chopping the branch hes standing on. He underestimates or doesnt comprehend the crazy of LoVs members. Hes just a businessman dealing in drugs which is frowned upon by older yakuza. Their evil bar is very low compared to LoVs members.
Is Twice based on Rorschach besides Deadpool obviously
Really looking forward to the next episode
The next episode is the best MHA had to offer!
The Plague/Yakuza Alchemist! Im tellin ya
I totally ship toga and twice 🥰
Silly Kenny, those aren't portals those are shields/barriers.
Can't wait for sunday
Rappa needs to meet Goku
Ah yes, "portals" 😅
temp
Hi
Next ep
Guys please give just one chance to SAO (swod art online). You"ll gonna love this show
💀
Imagine having the ability to disassemble and assemble a person, like it was an object. The way you want it, just by touching that person. It's reasonable to think that Overhaul would lose his humanity. You will realize, in time, that a Quirk Society is not sustainable.
Intensely disagree. It's all a matter of how one uses it. Overhaul could've been an amazing doctor or medic. Instead a group of amoral criminals found him and enabled his worst personality issues.
@@relic5752 yeah but he grew up being poor and isolated. The only one who was nice to him was a Yakuza. Imagine being a kid raised that way. It's all a matter of perception
@@Danicv96 That's exactly my point. His tragedy mirrors Shigaraki, the wrong person found him at the right time
@@relic5752 but Shigaraki can not revive someone or change people like a God. He can. That's my point
