A cute episode that gives more of a glimpse into everyone's personalities. You even learn a few surprising things such as Shoji being a minimalist, and Shoto having surprising interior decorating skills.
You know, besides the crazyness of him managing to do the whole thing in one day, I like that this also reveals that Todoroki is a creature of habit, like a cat, and he's not comfortable in an environment he's not already used to. "We have tatami mats at home, so I can't relax on flooring."
At this point, I start to suspect that Mineta acts the way he does partly on purpose just to get a rise out of people. He's far craftier than he lets on, so if he really committed to being a creep he'd be far more "successful" at it rather than suffering his deserved punishment for it at every turn.
This has always been one of my favorite episodes. Its fun, creative with the dorm room concept, and some really good characterization, especially with tsu. Also, in regards to mineta, I find it fun that dispute his antics, the class still treats him like family and even encourages him every now and then, their just not afraid to punch him for his bull. A cute detail to show how connected this class is
Mineta aside, this is probably one of my favorite slice of life episodes. Just a whole lot of fun and gives a little glimpse into everyone in the class.
However, I do find it really interesting and kinda nice that despite minetas antics, the class still treat him like a member of the family, even encouraging him at some points. A good detail to show how connected this class is
@@jaredtheastralartist2510 I mean the rest of the class definitely discourages him more than they encourage him, which is good... cause his behavior should not be encouraged.
@@TheJeSTeR7530 True, Pervy behavior shouldn’t be Tolerated, but I mainly talking about all the moments he has OUTSIDE that. Like one moment that happens in ep 16. Not to mention you could see the progression of how he acts season to season, as he gets less and less Pervy and more like a regular member. To the point where he hasn’t been Pervy for five years at this point. And The dude actually has some solid lines and jokes with good delivery in timing,
@@jaredtheastralartist2510 I'd also add that despite claiming he's only becoming a Hero to pick up chicks, the fact that he stays with Class 1-A through everything that happens and there being all kinds of off-ramps and that no one would think less of him for leaving in the face of it all, but he doesn't. For all his selfishness and cowardice, Mineta sticks with Class 1-A through it all and in the process proves he's a True Hero when it matters.
Just imagine Superman coming to your house and begging on his hands and knees for you to give him another chance. Such a powerful scene. for me anyway.
This is one of my favorite episodes. I just love it when the class 1-a students are just around in a group being themselves. I think my favorite part was them commenting on how unremarkable and bare Ojiro's room is and his tail starts to slowly droop with each remark
In the Light Novels there's a chapter where Koda's rabbit gets out and Bakugo and Deku try to find it, because of this we find out what Mineta's room looks like, to put it simply Bakugo's reaction was "he can go and die" There's also a story about how Todoroki completely remodelled his room
9:56 It's lines like this, that make me feel like Momo is accidentally showing off about how rich she is. I know she's just speaking her mind, but that's how I feel
"Nobody snitching" is also what the cops do for each other and uh, that's 100% a problem. I can see why that wouldn't be a good thing in the hero community.
Kirishima was the first one to apologize and hug Tsu. Because a real man shows his emotions. finding out that Rihu Sato is not just a M.U.S.C.L.E. man but loves baking changes him from forgettable extra to fun background character. Sato looks like Kinnikuman and the pink plastic toys were sold as M.U.S.C.L.E. in America
Mineta makes a lot of sense when you remember the manga was made for teenage boys in Japan, the place that has used panty vending machines. Also you should watch the first movie now. It takes place right before the summer training camp.
Not my favorite that's still to come but definitely up there. Easily top 10 it's been a while since I've watched these so may be in the top 5 or higher won't know for sure till I resee the rest
People say that Mineta’s absence would make the series better, but then he has those moments that give me life, knowing that people refuse to believe it was Mineta doing something cool or interesting
It's common for people to value personality over actions when it comes to characters. Cause you know, how a person thinks speaks and acts is part of what makes you interested in them as a person.
@@Ragingknight12 Eh. Not really. Nah, Izuku inspiring Mineta to grow from little perv to respectable friend helps the narrative of Izuku becoming a hero to others in multiple different ways.
@OtomostheCrazy let's agree to disagree. Cause they kept him the pervy character for 5 seasons, and there was zero change. I haven't seen Season 6, so I can't say anything about him in season 6, but in 5 seasons he is the same creepy pervy guy with zero character development other than he's a perv and everyone knows it. Obviously, the manga is further ahead, but since I know a little of what's happening in the manga, it takes those current events to change him and not the countless others? I don't want any spoilers mentioned cause that is an absolute dick move to do, but 5 maybe 6 seasons and Mineta is still considered the pervy character.
@@Ragingknight12 That’s mainly because the fandom tends to hold on too tightly to Mineta being a super perv in the first season to notice how he gets less and less pervy throughout the following ones. Yes, I’m caught up with the manga, so I know how he turns out after the latest season, but you can’t deny he’s also been growing with the rest of the characters. But yeah, it seems we’re going to have to disagree on this
There is a little spin-off manga that doesn't get animated about uraraka's day to day life, beeing honest i don't remember the name, but it's sooo lovely and you see her thinking about what she should buy and everything
There's two things thinking back on this episode now that I'm rewatching it with you. First, the author had a chance to write out unlikable characters by using the plot pretense of the parents not approving them in the dorm. Yet he chose not to standing by his character choices. Which I think is ultimately a good thing by not bowing down to audience or other outside pressure. Second, there's a "prequel" manga My Hero Academia Vigilantes that takes place a few years before this in which the teacher Eraser Head plays a role. Which comparing that to his reaction about the students breaking the law and taking rescuing Bakugou into their own hands obviously plays a role.
Great in Episode in between arcs that is used to give us some easy to understand character development. My favorite moment (Probably because Kirishima and Kaminari are my favorite characters) was definitely Bakugo pulling Kaminari aside to help everyone loosen up because he feels responsible for the tension and then paying back Kirishima. Bakugo likely considers Kaminari somewhat of a friend because there are a lot of moments where Kaminari acts in a very similar way to Kirishima towards Bakugo so it's nice that Bakugo used someone where there is mutual respect to make everyone cheer up. Also great addition that the girls all think Kirishima's room is a red flag except for Uraraka who is now really into Martial Arts!
This episode kinda made me feel that while we have powerhouses like Deku, Bakugo or Todoroki, Tsuyu and Mina are like, the heart and soul of the class.
I love Deku’s reaction to Tokoyami’s room and geeking out over the sword. They’re both just a couple of nerds. It’s funnier in the English Dub because he just goes “GEEET OOOOOOOOOUUUT!!!”.
Episode: *emotional reminder* fun times..fun times..fun...*EMOTIONAL GUT PUNCH*. I do like this episode a lot, you see everyone's personalities from it and it's well done.
I love everyone's dorms! :D I also love the fact that EVERYONE just IGNORED Minato and walked past XD Honestly, I don't blame them. I don't even want to KNOW what horrors that perv has in his room
there's a running theory that Shoji is a Buddhist, his minimalist lifestyle runs with the theory, some Buddhism follows with you only need things that truly serve a purpose, his bed (for sleeping) and his desk (for his schoolwork) everything else is just excessive and not actually necessary for living, he gets his food from the dorms common area or the school canteen, if he has need of entertainment its likely exercise, meditation or the schools library or dorm common room
Mineta is the villain of the slice of life episodes, even more so than the normal villains (who have some sympathetic/tragic backstories or intentions), the fun is in hating his fucking guts. Oh, and sometimes he has moments of almost growth, mostly he's just there to hate though, and take schadenfreude in when he gets his comeuppance.
I don't know if this was ever confirmed but I remember reading that the reason Mineta exists is because the author of My Hero likes that type of humor. Apparently they decided to put it all into one character instead of having several people be pervy because they knew that kind of character is really unlikable. Basically, they wanted that type of humor in the manga but didn't want to make other characters bad by spreading it out, so Mineta exists. While I don't like Mineta at all, I'd rather him being the only one like this rather than several of the other boys also having that sort of nasty behavior.
Sero might be your favorite character on this episode. Because on 23:07 you can see Sero (tapeguy), Deku and Kaminari (shockguy) as well as Mineta (Grabe boy, the shorty, the perverted one, annoying one, the "😒" person) are on picture....but Mineta seems to be mummified and been dragged by Sero. Mineta got what was coming to him.
On the subject of Froppy, I wonder what your reaction to her best friend from Middle School and the story of how they became friends will be. I believe there's an episode or special with them doing a joint training excersise with that school.
It's just a culture difference. Remember: you are watching japanese shows, these Mineta scenes are funny in Japan and the same happens with a lot of animes (Hisoka from Hunter x Hunter is another example, japanese women love that creep lol).
7:30 he found out the cost from Denki 11:37 i love when he says it like this 13:30 hehe aw I never looked closely Petting Koda's bunny while wearing Tenya's glasses hehe
I can’t wait for her to find out who the leak is. She will never guess it in 1 million years. I don’t think there was a single person in the entire MHA community who suspected who it ended up being😂
26:50 amidst an emotional moment Iida never ceases to make me (and JP/honorific understanders) laugh with his "Tsuyu-chan-kun!" -san -sama -chan -kun ; common honorifics. Asui Tsuyu prefers "Tsuyu-chan" i.e. address me cutely like we're already familiar/friends. Izuku calls boys -kun and females -san (except when saying Tsuyu-chan). Iida calls _everyone_ -kun. Midoriya-kun, Uraraka-kun. (as general student pattern I mean). Iida calls everyone -kun, but Tsuyu wants to be called Tsuyu-chan. So he calls her "Tsuyu-chan"-kun 😆
Im having a problem. Im starting to enjoy Mineta, because of your reaction to him. So when whenever he starts doing/saying anything im finding it funny, because of how much you hate him.
Bit late here, you might not see this, kinda binging these at the moment, but I've always wanted to like Mineta. Emphasis on WANTED, having an unlikable little creepis fertile soil for character growth and an arc about respecting women/boundaries, and going from being someone who has to try to be liked, to someone who deserves it would be cool, and you can even see them toy with the idea in the exam with the teachers, where he talks about his classmates not being cool because they're heroes, where it's a status symbol that MAKES them cool, but being heroes because they're cool, where being genuine, cool people made them want to become heroes. He used to phase me a lot less because I grew up with characters like Master Roshi, Kon from Bleach, Jiraiya from Naruto, and so on, but they all had a different thing going on that (theoretically, results may vary) made them being perves a good joke. Like Master Roshi's whole bit is that you expect this wizened old man, legendary master of the martial arts, to be in complete control of himself, to live up to the legend. Him being this rumored hermit, martial arts master leads you to expect like, Mr. Miyagi from Karate Kid, but then you meet him and he's just comedically disappointing. Kon is like, a stuffed animal buddy, so you'd think he's all cutesy and lovable but actually it's just the whole Seth Macfarlane Ted bit, where the kids toy is a foul mouthed asshole. Mineta...does not do anything like that. What you see is what you get. MAYBE it's that he's in the Hero course, and the contradiction with him essentially being a sex offender in spite of that is the joke? But I dunno, if that were the case you'd think the story would communicate that better though. Like, they introduced Bakugou as a vicious bully who told the protagonist to kill himself, I feel like if they really wanted to, they could get something really cool from Mineta. Not caught up on the manga, so as far as I know they HAVEN'T, but still.
In the early seasons I tolerate Mineta because he gives creates situations for our cast to demonstrate their personalities and powers. Each time he goes off on something pervy we get to see how various guys respond and try to stop him, with only Mr. Aizawa having consistent success, so then the girls get to respond and use their abilities to punish his attempt. By the time any fights with real stakes start happening we already know how strong most of our cast is both morally and in terms of their combat abilities because of Mineta. By the end of season 3 that purpose has been served and it is no longer valid.
I've been watching this anime for probably the 4th time now and I forgot about Asui. Oh, the dam has let go. The water has flooded out. We have a flood. For some reason, I am emotionally more involved and I care more when I watch an anime for the next time. Or maybe it's just that the older I get the more emotional I get. ---------------------- Supposedly, such things are the domain of women. Nonsense. It's a matter of inherited traits. I inherited a lot of traits from my mother and grandmother. And that's why I don't behave like a typical, stereotypical guy. And that's a good thing. Long live emotion and diversity. Where are my handkerchiefs?!
I wonder if Alicia realizes how some of the stuff she says would come across if she was a short, pasty Mineta. ;) No one thinks Mineta behaves well, but he is to horn dogs as Bakugo is to hot heads. If you really don't see _anything_ about yourself reflected in him, you're a saint or you're lying to yourself. XD
Yooo fuckin horokoshi did it again, yo why does Kaminari have tissues on other side of the table by the bed ………….. yeah you know what he be using them for 13:40 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
"Who even relates to this character" Me 😁✋️ When I was a teen, I liked girls from a young age. The difference is that I was more shy, so no one knew about my perverted nature til much later. I am also amused by the japanese trope of "perveted character".
Foolishness Alicia, FOOLISHNESS, you can't watch this show and not tear up if you are as you put it and I quote it "A hormonal bitch" I usually don't get emotionaland I get feels with this show. They are all (at least for the most part kids that are making a new family out of this group, they always will get emotional)
the issue of a spy at UA was not delt with in the manga until after season 5 was finished. No voice actor or animator knew if there was a traitor or who it was in an episode you will see for a long time. Kirishima is rich. he would need a huge allowance to save up that much at 15. In the manga during a dark point, he destroys the punching bag in his room and casually orders another online.
That whole moment with Tsu crying actually makes me angry whenever I see it… Because I know it’s supposed to be portrayed as her being sad and feeling like they ignored her… But the way it’s shown makes it feel like she’s sad that they didn’t do what she said, and it’s like “I’m so used to being listened to that the one time I’m not it hurts my ego”…. So even though it’s not SUPPOSED to be interpreted like that it’s the only thing I ever see
Really? It didn't really feel like either of those to me, it's always felt more like she felt bad about what she said to them and was worried they thought she hated them now or that they hated her. In the hospital she literally said something along the lines of "If you do this then you'll be no different than villains" and that's a pretty harsh thing to say to your hero-aspiring friends, even if she was correct from a legal standpoint. It was probably weighing on her mind anyways, but then she heard that they went so she probably felt even worse. She just didn't want them to resent her for saying what she said basically
Hey, i hope its not rude to ask, since you are already doing a lot of anime at the moment, but do you plan on reacting to the MHA Movies? They aren't all that canonically important, but some of the fights are so budget breakingly beautiful, that they may as well be a must watch. But i totally get it if thats too much lol.
@@chocolateworshiper6765 yeah that's why I said "arent excactly" they could have feasibly happened but none of what happens in them is ever really referenced later (apart from the mid gauntlet) and the characters don't really change so its effectively the same.
Mineta isn't necessarily meant to be funny. He's meant to be hated. But his character IS at least realistic. He's a horomonal teenager who refuses to learn boundaries. He goes way too far way too often, but i think we all knew a guy who did in high school.
He's definitely meant to be funny. The author is clearly very fond of his character. He guys more screentime then tail dude. But he's just an anime character, you're allowed to enjoy him. It's not that serious
16:35 i'd normally defend mineta by saying he's a teenager with raging hormones, some teens hormones are stronger than others its not their fault..... but this lil nigga just has no moral compass😭 i cant back him up
Who is Mineta for? Really? You're asking that about a character in a shounen manga/anime series? For boys clearly. Whether it's his natural or planned intention to act pervy, he's practically every teenage dude with raging hormones. I find him funny because he's very direct about his feelings to the point that he rightfully either gets punished for his bluntness or blocked from succeeding everytime. I'd much rather have Mineta instead of somebody equally as pervy as him but is silent about it (it's easier to trust the danger in front of you compared to the danger you can't see). Now that's actually creepy. Also, I do enjoy seeing folks who hate him in disbelief when Mineta does something truly useful because whenever he is useful, it can't be ignored or glossed over.
I just see Mineta as an unfortunate price of this good show and also result of weird anime humor. Like pervert characters are common in anime and I don’t get why since they’re always hated or just tolerated. I sound terrible for this but it might be a Japan thing or something because even comedic Manwhas don’t have this character often or as creepy as this.
A cute episode that gives more of a glimpse into everyone's personalities. You even learn a few surprising things such as Shoji being a minimalist, and Shoto having surprising interior decorating skills.

Since you can't do everything with just power alone...
I guess that's what makes a great class - balance and bonds of friendship.
It's fun to have a character just to universally hate
When they have something going for them perhaps, but Minetta doesn't
Yeah, Monoma IS fun to hate... wait you meant Mineta, nah he's just annoying.

Yeah Mineta is the punching bag. Just dump all the cliché bad traits of "teen boy life" on him and call it a day.
Mineta is like the outward manifestation of the part of himself that everyone teenage boy tries to either keep hidden or suppress
Even if Mineta himself don't make us laugh or smile, at least you reacting to him, made it 😆

Basically, they wanted that type of humor in the manga but didn't want to make other characters bad by spreading it out, so Mineta exists.
While I don't like Mineta at all, I'd rather him being the only one like this rather than several of the other boys also having that sort of nasty behavior.
Sero might be your favorite character on this episode.
Because on 23:07 you can see Sero (tapeguy), Deku and Kaminari (shockguy) as well as Mineta (Grabe boy, the shorty, the perverted one, annoying one, the "😒" person) are on picture....but Mineta seems to be mummified and been dragged by Sero. Mineta got what was coming to him.
On the subject of Froppy, I wonder what your reaction to her best friend from Middle School and the story of how they became friends will be. I believe there's an episode or special with them doing a joint training excersise with that school.
It's just a culture difference. Remember: you are watching japanese shows, these Mineta scenes are funny in Japan and the same happens with a lot of animes (Hisoka from Hunter x Hunter is another example, japanese women love that creep lol).
7:30 he found out the cost from Denki
11:37 i love when he says it like this
13:30 hehe aw
I never looked closely
Petting Koda's bunny while wearing Tenya's glasses hehe
It's so funny how they were showing all the students on their way to school, and Iida's already in the classroom sitting lmao 🤣🤣🤣
20:22 "Food is the way to the heart": after all, Cooking is already an act of love in itself
About Aoyama, I like to think the mirrors on the bed are there so he can shoot his laser from any angle and melt away the alarm clock
Oh, there's actually a movie that takes place inbetween season 2 and season 3.
Man you're really good at predicting what's gonna happen with this show, it's actually pretty incredible to witness.
I can’t wait for her to find out who the leak is. She will never guess it in 1 million years. I don’t think there was a single person in the entire MHA community who suspected who it ended up being😂
There were actually a lot who suspected it but then they got convinced otherwise
26:50 amidst an emotional moment Iida never ceases to make me (and JP/honorific understanders) laugh with his "Tsuyu-chan-kun!"
-san -sama -chan -kun ; common honorifics.
Asui Tsuyu prefers "Tsuyu-chan" i.e. address me cutely like we're already familiar/friends.
Izuku calls boys -kun and females -san (except when saying Tsuyu-chan).
Iida calls _everyone_ -kun. Midoriya-kun, Uraraka-kun. (as general student pattern I mean).
Iida calls everyone -kun, but Tsuyu wants to be called Tsuyu-chan.
So he calls her "Tsuyu-chan"-kun 😆
Im having a problem. Im starting to enjoy Mineta, because of your reaction to him. So when whenever he starts doing/saying anything im finding it funny, because of how much you hate him.
The "could you take out the trash in the freezing cold?" got me so good. XD My spicy hot cheetos in my throat-ass right now-
When I binged the show myself, I had a dream of an episode where the entire class just beat up mineta, it was awesome
what you said about food is 100% true, good food is the basis for a great relationship.
Still mad to this day we never saw mineta room I wanna know whats in there
Jiro-san's room is, like if , Spider Punk, and characters, from _TEEN TITANS!(2003),_ started a band together.
Bit late here, you might not see this, kinda binging these at the moment, but I've always wanted to like Mineta. Emphasis on WANTED, having an unlikable little creepis fertile soil for character growth and an arc about respecting women/boundaries, and going from being someone who has to try to be liked, to someone who deserves it would be cool, and you can even see them toy with the idea in the exam with the teachers, where he talks about his classmates not being cool because they're heroes, where it's a status symbol that MAKES them cool, but being heroes because they're cool, where being genuine, cool people made them want to become heroes. He used to phase me a lot less because I grew up with characters like Master Roshi, Kon from Bleach, Jiraiya from Naruto, and so on, but they all had a different thing going on that (theoretically, results may vary) made them being perves a good joke. Like Master Roshi's whole bit is that you expect this wizened old man, legendary master of the martial arts, to be in complete control of himself, to live up to the legend. Him being this rumored hermit, martial arts master leads you to expect like, Mr. Miyagi from Karate Kid, but then you meet him and he's just comedically disappointing. Kon is like, a stuffed animal buddy, so you'd think he's all cutesy and lovable but actually it's just the whole Seth Macfarlane Ted bit, where the kids toy is a foul mouthed asshole. Mineta...does not do anything like that. What you see is what you get. MAYBE it's that he's in the Hero course, and the contradiction with him essentially being a sex offender in spite of that is the joke? But I dunno, if that were the case you'd think the story would communicate that better though.
Like, they introduced Bakugou as a vicious bully who told the protagonist to kill himself, I feel like if they really wanted to, they could get something really cool from Mineta. Not caught up on the manga, so as far as I know they HAVEN'T, but still.
Mineta is just an in for the writers and artists to give fan service while also pretending they’re condemning it by making him the butt of the jokes
Mineta is my spirit Animal.
Mineta is pretty much that one guy that you love to hate in every anime
The way to a person's heart is throught their stomach.
Mineta is just the face of the people that complain about him without being relevant enough for half the class being alive.
21:40 pov sanji post timeskip lol
In the early seasons I tolerate Mineta because he gives creates situations for our cast to demonstrate their personalities and powers. Each time he goes off on something pervy we get to see how various guys respond and try to stop him, with only Mr. Aizawa having consistent success, so then the girls get to respond and use their abilities to punish his attempt. By the time any fights with real stakes start happening we already know how strong most of our cast is both morally and in terms of their combat abilities because of Mineta. By the end of season 3 that purpose has been served and it is no longer valid.
love getting to see all the rooms
I've been watching this anime for probably the 4th time now and I forgot about Asui. Oh, the dam has let go. The water has flooded out. We have a flood. For some reason, I am emotionally more involved and I care more when I watch an anime for the next time. Or maybe it's just that the older I get the more emotional I get.
----------------------
Supposedly, such things are the domain of women. Nonsense. It's a matter of inherited traits. I inherited a lot of traits from my mother and grandmother. And that's why I don't behave like a typical, stereotypical guy. And that's a good thing. Long live emotion and diversity. Where are my handkerchiefs?!
I wonder if Alicia realizes how some of the stuff she says would come across if she was a short, pasty Mineta. ;) No one thinks Mineta behaves well, but he is to horn dogs as Bakugo is to hot heads. If you really don't see _anything_ about yourself reflected in him, you're a saint or you're lying to yourself. XD
The songs were right. It really is all about that cake.
Question for comment section: "How would _you_ design, _your_ room?"
Yeah sometimes the "joke" about the joke character is the fact that their universally hated
Yooo fuckin horokoshi did it again, yo why does Kaminari have tissues on other side of the table by the bed ………….. yeah you know what he be using them for 13:40 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
I think Kaminari's room is a mess because he's like a magnet just pulling everything to him... cuz electricity
Mineta is 90% of the complaints i have about this show lmao
Alicia thinking Mneta is weird while i m a girl and was rooting for him so hard in this episode
Kaminari always making Jiro laugh
world trigger is an interesting anime whether this comment goes unnoticed or not is fine by me
If My Hero was fantasy anime, then the sword belonged to Izuku
"Who even relates to this character"
Me 😁✋️
When I was a teen, I liked girls from a young age. The difference is that I was more shy, so no one knew about my perverted nature til much later.
I am also amused by the japanese trope of "perveted character".
he's out of line, but he has a point
Foolishness Alicia, FOOLISHNESS, you can't watch this show and not tear up if you are as you put it and I quote it "A hormonal bitch" I usually don't get emotionaland I get feels with this show. They are all (at least for the most part kids that are making a new family out of this group, they always will get emotional)
As someone who watches highschool dxd kanokon sekirei and sora no otoshimono at least once a year, i find mineta hilarious.
the issue of a spy at UA was not delt with in the manga until after season 5 was finished.
No voice actor or animator knew if there was a traitor or who it was in an episode you will see for a long time.
Kirishima is rich. he would need a huge allowance to save up that much at 15. In the manga during a dark point, he destroys the punching bag in his room and casually orders another online.
That whole moment with Tsu crying actually makes me angry whenever I see it… Because I know it’s supposed to be portrayed as her being sad and feeling like they ignored her… But the way it’s shown makes it feel like she’s sad that they didn’t do what she said, and it’s like “I’m so used to being listened to that the one time I’m not it hurts my ego”…. So even though it’s not SUPPOSED to be interpreted like that it’s the only thing I ever see
Really? It didn't really feel like either of those to me, it's always felt more like she felt bad about what she said to them and was worried they thought she hated them now or that they hated her. In the hospital she literally said something along the lines of "If you do this then you'll be no different than villains" and that's a pretty harsh thing to say to your hero-aspiring friends, even if she was correct from a legal standpoint. It was probably weighing on her mind anyways, but then she heard that they went so she probably felt even worse. She just didn't want them to resent her for saying what she said basically
Hey, i hope its not rude to ask, since you are already doing a lot of anime at the moment, but do you plan on reacting to the MHA Movies?
They aren't all that canonically important, but some of the fights are so budget breakingly beautiful, that they may as well be a must watch.
But i totally get it if thats too much lol.
Didn't it just get announced recently that the movies were canon?
They are not relevant to the main plot at all, but they are very much canon
@@chocolateworshiper6765 yeah that's why I said "arent excactly" they could have feasibly happened but none of what happens in them is ever really referenced later (apart from the mid gauntlet) and the characters don't really change so its effectively the same.
@@BeanMann Nine is shown for exactly one panel in the manga
Bout to hit them with the hottest take: I like Mineta
The chat begging for help at the beginning of the video made me laugh
Mineta isn't necessarily meant to be funny. He's meant to be hated. But his character IS at least realistic. He's a horomonal teenager who refuses to learn boundaries. He goes way too far way too often, but i think we all knew a guy who did in high school.
He's definitely meant to be funny. The author is clearly very fond of his character. He guys more screentime then tail dude. But he's just an anime character, you're allowed to enjoy him. It's not that serious
Y'all are focusing on the anime I'm focusing on the chat
16:35 i'd normally defend mineta by saying he's a teenager with raging hormones, some teens hormones are stronger than others its not their fault..... but this lil nigga just has no moral compass😭 i cant back him up
making fun of hats now huh? making fun of me as a teenager is thats whats going on now
this was a great video
Who is Mineta for? Really? You're asking that about a character in a shounen manga/anime series? For boys clearly. Whether it's his natural or planned intention to act pervy, he's practically every teenage dude with raging hormones. I find him funny because he's very direct about his feelings to the point that he rightfully either gets punished for his bluntness or blocked from succeeding everytime. I'd much rather have Mineta instead of somebody equally as pervy as him but is silent about it (it's easier to trust the danger in front of you compared to the danger you can't see). Now that's actually creepy. Also, I do enjoy seeing folks who hate him in disbelief when Mineta does something truly useful because whenever he is useful, it can't be ignored or glossed over.
How insidious that laugh sounds. 20:01
I just see Mineta as an unfortunate price of this good show and also result of weird anime humor. Like pervert characters are common in anime and I don’t get why since they’re always hated or just tolerated. I sound terrible for this but it might be a Japan thing or something because even comedic Manwhas don’t have this character often or as creepy as this.
I was waiting so long and it final game
