So the anime actually censored it heavily. But Kirishima actually had a majority of his skin broken in this fight and was covered in blood, bruises, and cuts in the manga. Which is why he starts panicking in the moment. Like, it was *bad*
im hyper sad that this show will continue to be censored in future seasons when it really isn’t appropriate considering the coming arcs, this is especially disappointing considering how muddy and confusing horikoshis panels have been getting as of late, the animation would’ve helped clarify alot in that respect
Yeah, the manga *really* emphasized how much damage Kirishima took from Rappa's blows. Sadly, the anime censorship really diluted the impact of the battle.... though, I think I heard somewhere that the Blu-Ray release of the anime is actually less restricted than what's shown on TV? So maybe that version shows Kirishima in a state closer to that of the source material, I dunno. Is there anyone who can confirm this? 🤔
I always thought it was weird he looked hollow when his skin fell off. I thought it was just a weird part of his quirk until now. This makes much more sense
yeh fat's quirk is that he absorbs the energy he takes in that burns the calories and he transfers that energy into a super attack, kinda like how vibranium works in the marvel universe
I absolutely love this episode just because we get to see more of Kirishima and the struggles he has had to deal with, from being scared and thinking he wasn't getting any better, to realizing he's always been scared but had never let it get in his way and showing how much resolve he has. Such an amazing episode!
Apparently they missed Fat's explanation of how his power works. When he takes attacks, his fat gets burned up and turns into an equal amount of energy he can put into a massive attack. His one punch was equal to all of the punches he took from the villain all together. Also, it is difficult to tell sometimes, but Fatgum is over 8ft tall.
Well the this does take place in the future (estimates put it between 200-300 years in the future) so maybe hair dying technology has improved. But if you think the bond between Mina and Kirashima is adorable here’s a little bit more adorable-ness, when Mina sees Kirashima’s new hairstyle she points out that he “has horns now like me.” When Kirashima disguised himself to go rescue Bakugo he put his hair back in its old style but wore fake horns as if he still felt like he needed them. Shows just how much Kirashima truly admires Mina.
exactly it makes me so sad when people arent huge fan of fatgum when he's in his fat form. But suddenly when he's slim, he looks "hot" and people like him more :(
@@penguin_forest personally I love fatgum's fat gum state more as I was a huge Totoro fan when I was young. A bit biased cause of that but still. He looks really soft and squishy, probably gives great hugs.
Awesome vid! Fun fact: while it’s pretty obvious what Tengai’s quirk is they never really say what Rappa’s is but it’s not anything insane it’s just cool. It’s called Strongarm and allows him to rotate his shoulders at crazy speeds and punch almost endlessly but he can only activate it for a few seconds at a time but that’s really all the time he needs to literally tear people to shreds with his punches.
On the topic of Kirishima's hair this is a world with quirks, someone could be working at the local salon who could change hair follicles and just give him red hair.
Shed many tears over Red Riot's sacrifice (i.e. from his perspective), jumping in front of Rappa like that, knowing he might just get pummeled to death, but doing it anyway to give Fat Gum a chance...damn. Honestly, Red Riot totally has what it takes to be one of the greatest heroes. And yeah, Fat Gum, jaw dropping
One of my fav episode of this season. Kirishima is just such a great character. That's what I like about MHA, even "side" characters are well writen, with their own problems and backstories. On a side note, it's usualy when learning about their backstory that a majority of people ship Kirishima and Mina.
wish the horikoshi made class A 10 elite kids instead of 20 mid ones , mid only cuz theres alot of characters who have no development and i question their existence to begin with
Fat Gum is my favorite hero and I almost lost it at that mean comment. Fat Gum is not just fat, he is compassionate, brave and the type of person who builds up others.
@@Valandar2 there's so many alternate ships going on in the class, you can practically make a circle around half the class. Uraraka x Deku, Deku x Bakugo, Bakugo x Kirishima, Kirishima x Mina, Mina x Kaminari, Kaminari x Jirou, Jirou x Momo, Momo x Todoroki, etc
this fight was awesome and extremely satisfying to experience for the first time. most people are starting to love Kirishima, Fat Gum has seemed pretty cool up to this point and then we get introduced to Rappa, who is pretty one-note and is extremely straightforward but his personality is so huge that I think he's pretty popular among fans
If feel like Kirishima could only bleach his hair a little bit in order to color it red, since on the first bleach black hair kinda turns red anyways. You just gotta dye it a darker shade of red, though I don't think any one can get their hair to be fire truck red like him lol
I love the comparison: Deku, the quirkless guy who run to save someone vs kirishima, the guy with a quirk that get frozen of fear. Also, you can make another one with bakugo, the childhood "friend" who bullied him and tried to make him quit vs mina, the unknown girl who (without any meaning) spired him to be better
*Strongarm* (強きょう肩けん, _Kyōken_ , literal meaning "Strong Throwing Arm") is the quirk used by Kendo Rappa. Strongarm allows the user to rotate and move their shoulders at extreme speed and power, giving them commensurately fast and strong punches. Strongarm works by constantly rotating Kendo's shoulders at superhuman speeds. Although he appears to ignore it, the drawbacks of his Quirk can tire out his muscles if overused. This power can also only be used for a few seconds at a time. In terms of raw power, it is unable to break through Hekiji Tengai's Barrier Quirk. Quirks for the Hassaikai weren’t stated this episode so here they are from the wiki.
Hahaha, I knew Sam was gonna fall for the fat man! He did somewhat explain his quirk - him having his fat built up acts as a shield, however, through force that shield can be worn down. However, the use of his fat allows him to store the attacks he received and deliver a blow equal to everything he has stored. His fat, and the energy that lies within, is the catalyst for that. However, his defense was going slower than anticipated, so without those few seconds Kirishima bought he wouldn't have been able to convert all of the force he's stored into an attack - or worse, he would have gotten hurt too significantly (because his defense lowers as his fat coat diminishes) to deliver an attack at all. When you think of it, the energy from fat does play a part for another quirk as well - Momo's quirk uses the energy from fatty acids in her body to create stuff. Edit: Perhaps easier explained, you could say that his quirk store and release with the fat acting as catalyst/storage for the energy required to pull it off. Meaning he can't pull it off as Fit Gum, only as Fat Gum.
I know there is this stereotype about dub versions not great but trust, this series has one of the best english dubs out there. I suggest ya'll try it to have a full experience.
Fat Gum was always skinny, when he first started out, he wear the same jacket with hoodie, but was super thin. During a villain attack he got overwhelmed a bit, his kinetic energy absorption quirk didn't work to well, due to being so skinny. Afterwards he ate a lot to fatten up, and he has to every day as his fat is turned to energy as he takes in hits to become a super powerful attack. Anyways that bit took place in the other MHA My Hero Academia: Vigilantes, this took place before All Might Fought AFO, the fight that crippled them both. Before everyone else were still kids.
Fat Gum’s power isn’t being fat, he has to eat a lot of fatty foods to do that, his power is Fat Absorption, which would be useless if he stayed skinny
@@jessestf221 Because otherwise what? It is clear they don't pay all that much attention. They continually miss key elements of stories or misunderstand things to the point of it throwing them completely off track, then when something happens, they don't understand it because they misunderstood or never paid any attention to, the build up. It happens all the time. Don't get mad at me for pointing it out.
Fat Gums quirk is what fat normally does but he can do it with external energy. Fat is a build up of metabloic energy from digestion. Fat gums fat stores kinetic energy in those cells and then releases them. Your muscles use up that energy and so does his. he just needs a sec to transfer the stored power to his muscles.
This assault series of episodes is really awesome, and i love how they still slip in backstory elements about some of the characters while they're doing it. Get ready for the ride, if you loved this fight, it's about to get real.
FatGum is pretty strong if adversaries are strong enough to get past his defence they'll have to face is offense, which is the entire energy of their attacks combined into one
@@obitouchiha4739 Oh yeah, people are on the edge of their seat, waiting to hear if Crimson Riot is dead or not. Because it is so important to the story as well. A spoiler isn't just any information that hasn't been revealed yet. A spoiler is information that directly affects the plot of the story that hasn't been revealed yet. Like if you hadn't seen Star Wars and somebody told you "Vader is Luke and Leia's father". That's a spoiler. However saying "R2D2 is an astromech droid, responsible for flight navigation" that wouldn't be a spoiler. That is just information.
Fat gum can absorb the kinetic energy of any physical attack using his fat. That energy gets bigger and bigger until his fat can't absorb any more. That's when he has to unleash all that energy into one awesome attack.
So fat gum makes himself fat so hes able to withstand absorb more blows, but each blow he takes makes some of his fat go away. He then uses the energy he absorbs from his opponent’s blows to do a attack
7:31 :( mh right the censored aftermath-- everything else was fine, but...always a lil disappointing and I hope someone maybe showed you the actual aftermath panels here (though alexinator helps) 20:28 pfffft he was _talking_ about it, well _internal monologuing_ heh 20:23 I love the momentary bg silence in "OTOKO" 21:06 y'all 22:14 pretty very actually I cant even remember how bad now

If Fat Gum, Amajiki and Kirishima every got their own spinoff. I would totally watch it
Don't forget Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu

Check out My Hero Academia Vigilantes. You'll see more of Fat Gum and other really great Hero's
My hero academia : shield warriors! Lol
I don't blame Kirishima for being intimidated in his flashback, the lost big dude really looked scary tbf
Wait till you find out who he is lol!
@@Snowandfury I do know who he is, but the React Pack don't 😁

Not yet. In a few episodes there's even more Ship Tease. :D
@@willfanofmanyii3751 No confirmation, but PLENTY of tease. And if you're not a Bakugo/Kirishima shipper, you're usually a Mina/Kirishima shipper.

This episode and Deku vs Muscular are the best episodes IMO. They embody what the show is about at the highest
Ha they weren't ready for FitGum
19:45 i really love how they foreshadow that Crimson Riot di3 while sacrificing himself...
5 seconds after feeling sad for Kirishima 20:31
Sam: Fat Gum is hot?!
Me: Always has been
I love the comparison:

I don't know in the anime, but in the manga you can see Kirishima with black hair making the exam.
Bruh they weren't really paying attention to the subtitles bc they didn't even understand fatgum quirk maybe they should do dub instead
Kirishima is also the mvp here because if it is not for him, fat gum will be done and cannot release the power he earn from that punching guy dude
Fat Gum’s power isn’t being fat, he has to eat a lot of fatty foods to do that, his power is Fat Absorption, which would be useless if he stayed skinny

fatgum use his fat and convert it to energy or power. that last attack is propbably the second strongest attack on MHA after all all might's attack.

I just love the kansai dialect of japan
And maybe this world has a permanent hair dye there's heros and all types of stuff
I remember someone said fat gum looks like potato two episodes ago 🤔, I wonder who🤨.
Don't underestimate potato, it saved Mark Watney.
Fat Gum burns fat through absorbing force and turns it into power for himself
I can totally see Fat Gum being, like, a sex symbol among men in this hero society. Like how Mt Lady and Midnight are, and Ryukyu
So fat gum makes himself fat so hes able to withstand absorb more blows, but each blow he takes makes some of his fat go away. He then uses the energy he absorbs from his opponent’s blows to do a attack
Fatgum down to Fitgum.
