Guys they explain why they were able to defeat stain. First, he wasn’t trying to kill Deku or Todoroki, and was making mistakes/fighting frantically to kill Iida and Native before the pros got there (like Todoroki said)
Exactly...that was blindly obvious....even for blind people
Not to mention, as shown he could have escaped and blitz one of them to death if he truly wanted to.
that and the fact that his fighting style is not suited against multiple opponents for an extended period of time, that's why he tends to ambush heroes alone like Native and Ingenium
Pretty sure only person stain saw as a hero was deku...everyone else he didn't see has a hero including shoto
And native was out the fight the entire time ..so he made rapid mistakes trying to kill ilda and shoto not native
damn it Normies
Stain never said he was a hero not once. Calling people fake heroes was what Stain did and he had a reason to every single time. Don’t get me started on how y’all got to the conclusion that he licked his own blood. What literally happened was said in the episode.
It's hilarious sometimes how off the mark they get
You'd think with 6 people 1 of them would get it.
They tend to miss things like that all the time lol
At least they eventually read the comments and are corrected.
@@Tetraf0rce true
He did went to heroing school with the intention of becoming a hero, but he dropped out after being disgusted by the whole system.
Yeah, again, just to nicely clear up anything's you guys may have misunderstood:
1)The flying Nomu was indeed bleeding from Endeavor's god-like fire bolt (so dope), causing the woman to be covered in its blood, allowing the Nomu to be paralyzed by Stain.
2) That weird red/glowing aura around Stain that made everyone seemed to be paralyzed was nothing quirk related, but just his pure vocal conviction. Stain in-universe is a very commanding, endearing, and charismatic figure, easily able to have his words carry meaning and gravitas. Everyone freezing in place was out of pure trepidation and unease thanks to his mere presence. I mean, the guy's been killing and paralyzing heroes left and right, of course, people would fear him.
3) Stain does not consider himself a hero and does not do his job killing people in order to tell people to also kill heroes. You might just learn a little bit more about his motivations in the future to help clear things up about his goals and ambitions. Just understand that he wants to create a more just society with fewer heroes doing hero work just for fame and glory. (He considers the likes of Endeavor to be the prime example of a hero not truly embodying what it means to be righteous and to serve your fellow man.
4) Stain freezing in place had nothing to do with his or anyone's quirk. He literally passed out standing up from the pain of his rib piercing his lung. Internal bleeding was probably present, but it's not like he literally had his power turned on him accidentally. How long could you stay conscious with one of your organs pierced after having your ass kicked in a bit?
5) Stain was defeated because he was outnumbered while making some sloppy moves to wrap things up fast, and because he was not trying to actually kill Deku and (questionably) Todoroki, just Iida and Native, as he considered them fakes.
Nice! Tho i don't think they read comments if your not paying them. Patreon.
Also Midoriya is quick witted fighter while Shoto is one of recomended people to a hero course for a reason. They werent pushovers.
@@HanRaph he did pay though? this comment was a month ago
@@mordredvonumbra154 Yeah, plus they all go to one of the top hero schools in the country
@@OriNyte your right.
The thing that needs to be remembered about Stain is that he only cares about true heroes and making a society where more people strive to be true heroes like All Might and Deku.
Iida's brother is a hero not because he has a deep desire to save people, but because it's what is expected of him and it's the right thing to do, this comes through in everything he says to Iida in the flashbacks.
To Stain, this makes him a false hero, like probably most of hero society as they're generally heroes for every other reason than simply to save lives, if your sole driving force is not to save people above all else like Deku & All Might, then you need to stop being a hero, or just die.
This means, someone like Endeavor, who is undoubtedly a great hero, is a huge target for Stain's hatred because ultimately all Endeavor cares about is surpassing All Might. Which makes him anything but a true hero. As far as Stain is concerned, if you aren't by default a "true" hero, you'll never be able to become one.
I know it's easy to be like "YEAH FUCK HIM UP". But the point of the Stain arc is to make you start wondering about the nature of Hero society, if you haven't already given it a thought.
We've had hints here and there all throughout the series up to this point including the issues with how students are judged to be suitable for UA, the Hero society being deeply flawed, selfish and shallow has been a constant thing in the background up to now (For example the number 2 Hero having a history of abusing his wife and child).
So, while Stain is undoubtedly flawed in his beliefs. Is he evil? Is he right? Is he wrong?
Well Stain is still a clear villain because even if the heroes have other motivations, they still save lives. So killing those heroes or disabling them only makes the world more unsafe, while also punishing those who are saving lives.
Imagine if someone decided you should die because you go to work to get paid and not because you genuinely like the job you're doing. That's definitely a villain.
@@rafz9147 naaahhh....hes a 100% villain. He still kills perfectly good people, more of the people he goes after are like tensei than endeavor.
Iidas brother is a noble guy who enjoys saving people and has a good heart, but he apparently deserves to be crippled for life because being a hero wasn't his number one unhealthily all consuming passion like all might or deku? To stain, heroes aren't allowed to also be people which is like....waaaay wrong. He wants them to be all give and no take which doesn't work when you are an actual human being with human needs.
Stain doesn't even know idas brother. He crippled him because idas brother stumbled across him, not because stain did background research on him.
@@ashleyjohnson9651 Stain is anti villain or chaotic neutral. These labels describe him best because in the vigilante manga we see that in the past Stain used to kill villains and then later went to killing/injuring heroes with no sign that he stopped killing or fighting villains. He has a good intention sort of but horrible methods, so personally I go with chaotic neutral for Stain
And what about someone like uraraka who is a genuine nice person but is only doing the heroing stuff for money. by Stains logic she is part of the problem in his eyes regardless of reason.
midoriya: A quirk didn't stop the hero killer.
Chris: He tasted his own blood and that stopped him.
Damn it normies.
A pierced lung won't knock you out fam, Chris is right. Also Midoriya was referring to the five hero's standing directly in front of them with the quirk line.
The quirk line is also only in the anime it's not in the translated manga
Los
He didn’t lick himself buddy, they literally explain what happened to him even without the quirk line.
What do you mean a pierced lung can’t knock you out?
medlineplus.gov/ency/article/000087.htm#start
@@meat2023 Uh yes a pierced lung will knock you out man. Stain alter is activated on command so why would he paralyse himself?
Los If fucking getting too scared or being shock can knock u out, a pierced lung can fucking knock u out
@@meat2023 He wouldn't be able to fight decently in hand to hand combat if getting his own blood into his mount was enought to paralyse him. You dont think he started bleeding inside his mouth after getting smacked multiple times in the face by Midoriya?
How do 6 of them all come to the same wrong conclusion lmao
If one guy start with the wrong theory, it'slikely the other will follow, chris had to fight to make them understand stain licked the nomu's blood lol.
Probably because there ARE 6 of them.. they tend to talk over each other.. and are just not very keen on observation..
Sheep mentality
It's not just them. For whatever reason every reactor I've seen gets confused at the end of this episode. Either about the part where he puts out the killing intent that makes everyone freeze in fear (everyone always seems to think he's doing something with his quirk that is physically immobilizing them) or about why he stops (they don't realize that he just passed out from the pierced lung)
@@PatsDynasty q
6:52 Suraj, in Japan, people address each other on a Last Name, First Name basis. First names are reserved more for Family and Friends, though I'm sure there are exceptions.
Tsuyu Asui encourages people to call her Tsu, an abbreviation of her first name, to encourage familiarity and help her make friends, as she has difficulty communicating her full extent of feelings due to the way her Quirk affects her face features.
Well she actually just has them call her tsuyu. The whole shortening it to tsu thing is just an English localization.
Gunner Osborn I watched the sub and I’m pretty sure she said tsu
@@GreenHooper The subtitles do say "Tsu", but the actual Japanese talking voices say "Tsuyu-chan". She's always saying "Tsuyu-chan tte yonde" which means "Call me Tsuyu-chan." So Gunner Osborn is right, it's an English localization that the subtitlers threw in.
It's Tsu in English, because you can't translate well honorifics like -chan. But that's true - in actual Japanese and sub it is Tsuyu-chan.
The version they are watching gives option for two different translations.
The dub + sub is actually just dub with written version of dub.
But in proper sub version translation is much different, as they translate it more properly.
You can see it especially when Bakugo talks, because dub is slightly off with him and subs often give him totally different meaning.
"Define fake."
To Stain, any hero who isn't acting out of sheer altruism and selflessness to save people (fame, money, or any arguably self-serving motive) is a false hero. It's why he has admiration for All Might, who is a hero in the truest sense. (Let's face it. All Might inspires a lot of people)
What did iidas brother do than
@@hayamaged7059 Stain didn't target Ingenium, Stain just took him down because he tried to arrest him. Doesn't excuse that Stain is just an insane moron though.
Can’t believe she asked that even after he explained it multiple times
I know this late, but I never understood Stain's qualms about earning money doing hero work. I mean, heroes still have bills and wants. And it would be difficult to be a full time hero if you have to dedicate a chunk of your time with a regular job. Now letting the fame get to you or being self-serving, I get that, but everyone needs money.
@@GloomEater Money is very often a major source of corruption. There are a lot of reasons to have qualms with motive when it becomes about profit. The real world is proof enough of that.
If they dont understand this. I'm afraid of when we meet the big bad guy and they won't understand what he is.
"Is that Darth Vader's dad?" - Nahid
@@mesacboy7939 you know I wouldn't even be surprised if they said that.
because they only care about money
Really? @ the comments here, lol.
They're not that bad. Some of them had a good read on Stain. And they help each other understand. Also, they clearly care about MHA.
@@rinkusan978 Ok I can see that sometimes. But with some other shows and with Stain they didn't really understand his motivations (might be using the wrong word), and didn't figure out the reason he stiped was because he basically died when his lung was punctured.
I love and hate this channel so much at the same time. The reactions are great but the comments made and discussions can be so frustrating. 1) Stain is a villain, he never called himself a hero. 2)Deku literally says why he went unconscious. 3) Missing that Stain licked the nomu blood (good catch by Chris). It's disappointing when reactors miss key information.
It's why I prefer group reactions, at least one of them (thanks Chris) can talk some sense into everyone else. Yet somehow, almost most of the time, every single one of the Normies present all get the wrong idea, even with a show as simple as this.
Stain is NOT a villain. He’s neither a hero. He’s just a guy that believes in true heroes
@@TheFiddler69 if someone goes around killing innocent people then they are villains. Lol
Mehran Sakib Stain never even denies being a villain. He is one of the most prolific serial killers in history, and it was his intention for All Might to end his reign of terror. Even in his own eyes, Stain was a villain. A villain serving a higher purpose, but a villain nonetheless.
Chris Schoenthaler he never called himself a villain. In his eyes he is a divine judgement bestowed upon the sinners. Those who he deems unworthy are justified in his eyes to be killed. I know he’s a serial killer,but in his own twisted way he is also right about his beliefs. And from his viewpoint none of those guys he killed were ‘innocent’
I think you guys should re-watch the episode 16 & 17 again, purely for the dialogue the 2nd time. The visual & actions of the episode is throwing your attentions off cause I have no idea how you guys are hearing Stain calling himself a hero. Stain has always been called a villain/ hero-killer. He's ideology is what make him a likable villain since he's not completely wrong that their hero focused society is flaw, but he's too much of an extremist in his action.
Probably the crappy dub was throwing them off
@@ManuelFresh100 pretty sure they just weren't paying attention to the dialog and just focused on the fight. There's nothing wrong with the dub.
He kills people because they want fame and fortune that so stupid
@@ManuelFresh100 they've literally said in their episodes that the dub is done well, you're a moron if you seriously are having that issue
@@hayamaged7059 no he kills people because they’re glorifying and honoring people who save others for the wrong reasons. Like what if a fire fighter told you they wouldn’t put out the fire on your house if they didn’t get paid. Now of course it’s their job but you would think they’d at least do it cause they genuinely wanted to. And heroes are an even a greater personification of altruism. That’s what he’s getting at
You guys miss all the dialogue because Micky and Suraj try to be a comedian and make quips the whole reaction.
It happens a lot in most of their anime reaction videos, sad.
Welcome to the Normies! :D
Yeah we gonna eat en all out in the comments
I like Micky and Suraj a lot but I kinda have to agree lol. I don't think they should sit in silence and pay complete attention at all times or anything. but sometimes little unfunny comments in an attempt to be funny aren't necessary. Especially in an episode like this with a specific type of mood and tone.
Dude your everywhere in this comment section. Get a life
You guys should turn on the subtitles when you are watching as a group, the talking is causing some of you to miss important context (e.g. Nomu's blood getting licked by Stain). That way you won't have to worry about talking over important points since the conversation is why people watch you.
And subtitles is always nice for non native speakers, even if I saw the show already it doesn't require as much focus if it's written,
Subtitles are also good for anime reactions because the volume isn't so high sometimes
Or watch SUBBED cause dubbing is ebola.
@@Nipponing I can see the benefit of watching a dubbed show when you are trying to react to it, but subtitles would still help them overall so switching could be an option
@@feign31 This switching over talk is pretty funny because they just posted the last episode of season 2 on patreon and they were talking about switching because they might have to go to sub for season 4 and they said some of them said no they will keep watching dub until they get to that point.
I've never heard anyone theorize that Stain licked or consumed his own blood at the end of the episode lol . Deku literally explains why he froze.
Alright, let's just glance at the comments before watching- yikes
yeah i was curious because of the decent amount of dislikes...
The Japanese have a great sense of cultural admiration for _competence._ By highlighting Endeavor's competence as a Hero (a net positive to society), it contrasts and weights against his abusive conduct in his private life, to the point where they almost balance each other out to create this conflicting character. I find interesting how a lot of Western fans bemoan the fact that the author of the series seems so 'lenient' on Endeavor, and I believe this might be the biggest reason. If Todoroki's father was a bum in society, an incompetent and useless weight who contributes nothing except to the alcohol industry, this would be a very different story and tone, especially amongst the Japanese audience.
I think it’s more funny that people give Endeavor crap with the author taking his redemption to far. Yet many of them are ok when a franchise like Dragon ball redeems a evil mass murder like Vegeta.
@@brandonlyon730 It's because to a Western audience, being a great hero doesn't counteract his abusive domestic violence. There's no yin/yang balance to being an abuser. It's the same idea as a man that beats/cheats on his wife but he also works really hard so she doesn't have to go to work so he should be forgiven.
Even then I figure people would be less forgiving if a author tried to justify a redemption to man who has mass murder people including the elderly and children. And yet people out there still love Vegeta with his redemption arc despite the fact he has done far FAR worse then what Endeavor did yet he is not give as easy of a pass as Vegeta.
@@YuSooKey Well, the comparison you made is not very good, because this is not just about 'he works hard', it's really because of his competence at _this_ particular job, which is, _to save lives and keep society safe,_ not to mention the _celebrity status_ that comes with it. One may be a really good office worker, but it's not the same as what I said. Not trying to insult, but the comparison is just a little flawed and needs adjustment.
@@MayannHanna The thing about Endeavor is he has yet to be seen as repentant. You can't have a redemption arc if you've never changed your ways or acknowledged what you did in the past was wrong. If Endeavor were a great surgeon, world renown for saving many lives, and people learned that he abused his wife and children in the past but he never had to answer for what he did, that would be closer to Endeavor's situation. He's like a sport's superstar that gets charged with domestic violence but everyone still loves him for what he does for them.
Being a phenomenal human being doesn't excuse his past actions. Endeavor has never grown so far as a person, only as a hero. He hasn't once even apologized for what he did to his kids and wife. On the other hand, Todoroki's mom did apologize to him and they were able to move beyond that.
I can not help but be amazed at the Normies' ability to misunderstand things.
Things are explained literally, and they invent an explanation from nowhere.
6 people 12 ears 12 eyes... 1 functioning brain
I watched them so long that i know why this always happens. The others are insecure about their cognitive abilities so they never try to ask or try to discuss stuff. Except Chris. He is the guy who talks to most and they seem to adore him as the alpha in the group. So when he says something happend the rest will believe him and think they themself got it wrong.
@@kc_h7hSO Chris is the alpha dog
How can they be so stupid.. jesus.

But Endeavor is such great man, dude.
The comment section on the scanlation site of the manga is outraged each time Endeavor does something nice to redeem himself.

He's dead now.
Ain't that a spoiler..I don't think anime only even know that those nomu were people
@@pickmeup95 It was explained that the nomu that fought All Might used to be a person at the end of season 1.
@@pickmeup95 bruh
Oh i thought you said yeet
I don't know why it only just hit me now after all the times I have watched this episode but I just realized Stain's "Only one hero can kill me. All Might is worthy." is clearly stating Stain's overall plan. He knows he is a villain even though he also think his actions will do good in the long run so he totally had it in his head that one day All Might would show up and put him down and he was satisfied with that. He is so interesting.
Before now I just thought he was saying no hero is capable of killing him but All Might but no he actually wanted to die at his hands.
When the Normies over analyze something that was literally explained in the show. 🤣 Never fails
"That was too easy" kids almost died and it took a massive effort to knock em out. Easy indeed 🤣🤣
they're 6 but they share the same 1 brain cell lmao its okay tho, we get used to it haha hopefully they will focus next time (but again its the Normies we're talking about)
makes me a little angry
The thing is, people give them crap, but those people watch it alone wherever, try watching...any anime with a group of people and tell me if they're silent the entire time
I’ve never commented on what they’ve said when it comes to shows/anime because sometimes it’s not fair as they haven’t watched it in a while because they do binge sessions or first time watching it or the fact it’s easier to pick up things watching on your own rather than watching it with a group but omd sometimes I’m actually shocked how they can get the simplest of things wrong
Y’all don’t give stain the respect he deserves it annoyed me lol
Stain deserves no respect. I admit they don’t fully understand him though
@@kamronspencer4910 stain as a person may not deserve respect, but the way his character was written does.
2047Rook oh he’s an amazingly well written character because he was written in a way that despite him having no point and being nothing but a murderous lunatic he was written so well people somehow still think he had a point and fall under his spell.
@@kamronspencer4910 I mean, he did have a point though. When Shigaraki saw the impact Stain's ideologies had on the public, it spurred him to develop convictions of his own.
2047Rook that’s different. Stain was dedicated to his convictions no one is denying that and seeing what someone dedicated to their convictions can inspire made Shigaraki find his I’m not denying that either. I’m saying his convictions and ideology were absolute shit no one should agree with but stain is so charismatic he tricks people into thinking he’s deep and has a point anyway. He has no point about hero’s he’s stuck in the past trying to cling to the definition of hero from when it wasn’t a real thing instead of realizing that once it’s a real job it’s meaning has to change. He has no point and he never gives any evidence as to how “fake” hero’s hurt society because their is no evidence. In the end despite his convictions and what being so dedicated can inspire Shigaraki is right all he did was destroy what he didn’t like, he was just so dedicated to destroying those things and worded it so well he tricked people into thinking he was deep
Something that was missed translating is that Endeavor showed great respect towards Gran Torino, just as a note
Also, you truly nailed it. He might be a douche, but he's the Number 2 Hero for a reason
Yea y'all need to pay attention more to the villains. They're the more interesting side of this anime( especially right now in the manga). Sure they're bad guys and y'all just want to see the good guys win. But at least pay attention to their character development/motivations when it happens(especially Shigaraki). Cuz the villains imo is why this show is great.
I also wish y'all watched subs.
Yea, reminds me of the DC universe. Only the villains make me interested.
Based on their reactions to other shows and stuff their still going to not like the villains.
The art style at the end was stain's bloodthirst/intensity also i think his fighting style is a necessity as he needs to draw blood
"FREEZE HIM!" "KICK SOMEONES HEAD ACROSS THE WORLD!" Normies about to learn the heavey toll of the law and right to be a superhero next week if they think that way.
“He’s a good hero but a bad person” yeaaah Chris pretty much summed it up. Imo Endeavor is a picture perfect personification of the kind of people Stain set out to “purge”
He didn't paralyze himself. If he did (and if his rib hadn't punctured his lung) he would still be conscious.
Stain deserves more recognition. The first time I watch this season I was mesmerized by stain’s ideology. The show really doesn’t hesitate to talk about issues that are very similar to the real world. I don’t know how you guys didn’t get it 😂 and I don’t know how you managed to not get the picture
I hope you know (at least in the manga and anime universe) his ideology is supposed to go over everyone's heads, so they're just playing into the point without even realizing it
Tamaki Amajiki Tamaki Amajiki Damn this comment was from a year ago so I don’t remember much but........yeah I mean ofc, they didn’t realize what he did untill he did it. I mean there’s a reason why he didn’t get followers untill He died. But at the time felt like the normies and some people weren’t listening and getting what he was saying. He kept dropping hints about his beliefs. And I was very disappointed. Cuz it was very interesting to me how people could view being a hero from two very opposite sides of a spectrum. I really appreciated stains arc and what in brought to the my hero academia world. Stain gave me a new perspective on heroes. Anyways I might have been hasty with my comment😂😂 are you rewatching their reactions? Or are you just now watching them?
@@Violowrown I'm rewatching lmao, I completely forgot all the comments were from a year ago lol
God, due to the poor assessment at obversing the episode expositions, it make me wonder how bad they will get it wrong with the "origin" episodes that will come in a few episodes after this one?
Even Blindwave were more on point than all of those lots were!
the difference is: Blindwave actually TRY to pay attention
Stain was a masterfully written villain. The society of my hero academia is one where the true meaning of heroism has been lost. Being a hero is doing what is right simply because it's the right thing to do and I think most of us would agree with this sentiment. However, in their world, it's merely a means to an end: an occupation where you can make money, I title that grants you status and fame. Stain despises this and what's it to change. He wants to restore the meaning of what it is to be a hero. Stain is only a villain because his method of bringing about that change is killing those who he sees as frauds. Those who pervert the meaning of heroism (selfless acts of good). In stains mind tenya is a fraud because he sought his own vengeance rather than trying to rescue native. Had he succeeded, Tenya would have been praised and regarded as a true hero because he captured a murder and undoubtedly made the streets safer. However that isn't why tenya wanted to beat stain. His motivations (while justified IMO) were completely selfish. He wasn't acting as a TRUE hero. He was fraud and therefore must be purged. Stain respects all might and deku because they are true hero's in his view. Time and time again they both act for the sake of good regardless of the risk to themselves for no other purpose than to make the world a better place.
Then there's the 'endeavor dynamic. I love how most of you saw endeavor working, and went "yah, he is a hero" because this perfectly demonstrates why stain is against this society. People see endeavor killing the nomu and saving pedestrians and just like you guys, regard him as a hero because these actions are good. But what kind of hero exploits his family and mentally abuses them to fulfill his own ambitions? Endeavor isn't a hero because he wants to help people, he's Just in for the glory, to be the number one "hero". He doesn't save people because he cares about them, he doesn't because it'll boost his status. He's no true hero at least I'm the eyes of stain and is undoubtedly on his hit list. But, despite the fact that Endeavor is a terrible person, and his motives are completely selfish, his actions ARE a net positive on society. I mean he stops bad guys and saves lives, so what's the problem right? This dynamic is what makes Endeavor a Great character, and the world of my hero a fascinating one.
Stains final moments were absolutely stellar. There was a bunch of pro heroes on that street, but the one who came to dekus rescue was Stain. Everyone was caught off guard and therefore hesitated when the nomu came and took deku. But Stain immediately recognized the situation and sprung into action. Without a moments hesitation he acted for the sake of good (saving and innocent) regardless of the risk to himself and despite his critical injuries Just like deku did with bakugo and the sludge monster, and Just like all might did with the first nomu at UA. Now I'm not saying this makes stain a good person, he's still a murder, however in that very moment while the pros stood there gawking, Stain was a hero, a TRUE hero. When this reality set in, it shook everyone to there core as was brilliantly illustrated by the intense crimson aura radiating from Stain. From there his final words before passing out hit them so hard they actually fell to the ground. In those lays moments while the so called "pro heroes" lay there trembling, the hero killer, the monster that is Stain, was the only TRUE hero standing there, in body and spirit.
P.s. he wasn't paralyzed by his own quirk 😂, Tenya broke his rib with that kick and it punctured his lung. He lost consciousness while still standing
So why did he attack Tensei?
The stuff surrounding the heros was just the hero's killer intimidation just shown visually
Stain was never a hero but if you ever get around to reading off the spinoff manga (My Hero Academia: Illegals) you do see him before... this. And a bunch of other characters!
Also, protip to anyone reading. if you ever get stabbed/impaled by something, don't just pull the object out. That could cause way more problems than just leaving it in until medical professionals can tend to your wounds.
Yup learnt that in the compulsory national service. Damn movies teaching us the wrong things
Mostly it’s the loss of blood that happens when you pull an object out.
Stain is not a Hero, he is an Anti-Hero. He has his own set of rules that he lives by. He is more like the Punisher or Red Hood. His ideals are much more complex than they appear at first as well.
Anti-villain would fit more.
He's a textbook anti-villain. Def a bad guy doing bad things but he believes he's doing what he does for a good reason.
Stain is in no way a hero. Sorry bud.
It was from this episode that I started watching the dub alongside the sub. My God is the voice acting just perfect in both, that recipro extenddd always sends chills down my spine! Anime chills are something else
Idk opinions are opinions but the stain speech was so impactful in the sub but felt pretty weak in the dub tbh
Funimation usually makes great dubs. Sometimes even better than the original Japanese dub (in the case of DBZ and Yu Yu Hakusho).
Chris is the explanation guru in this episode
He is in all the AoTs too, GOAT.
But he still gets shit wrong. I'll give him a point tho for at least trying to understand and pay attention.
@@DeltaDrifter2201 he only got stuff wrong cause the others were making dumb jokes and having like seizures when he was trying to listen
Hes wrong sometimes..but he is the one either close to understanding or right ...even the point when the groups is yelling and asking how did stain stop the nomu, and he's literally explaining how stain licked the nomu blood off of deku lol
Tenya literally has engines in his legs. That's his quirk.
Zabuza did it better. Don't @ me.
I'll @ you. With a hearty comment of agreement!!
Both are good at their roles.
They are not the same character tf ??? You naruto stans are reaching so hard sometimes
@@ShonenVR sword guy with complex morals. First major challenge for the kids they got some parallels
@@pickmeup95 That's such a superficial take lol
9:22 "Blue fire?! That's like the hottest flame."
Amaterasu: "Ima end this guy's career."
14:13 Rena getting spooked by her own phone vibrating was hilarious
For the love of God turn on closed captioning
Guys a rip piercing a lung is a pretty big deal
Funny, I always considered it a mark of growing in maturity to have at least one moment in your life that changes the fabric of your being. Learning and becoming our best selves throughout our lives is in our nature.
Who else played ‘just another hero’ while reading chapters 188-190?🤔
Lost in translation.... That's why watch the subbed version... seriously you think he tasted his own blood and gone into shock😂😂...stain has a purpose and probably some reason to why did he become a hero killer and also he was really holding back against deku and todoroki . Mainly he acknowledged deku as a hero who doesn't do the hero work for fame. There's so much being mistranslated.
You dub haters will stretch anything for your obsessive hatred this was an issue of them being stupid ( I offense I love them) not the dub Messing up. They were told literally all of that the broken rib the punctured lung even had deku say a quirk didn’t stop the hero killer. They just didn’t hear or understand that because of their lack of focus or comprehension.
Todoroki also mentioned that stain was being sloppy and desperate. And even in the sub it’s never said outright that stain is going easy on deku just like here we have to infer that from the details we do get. In conclusion shut up.
Oliver Queen This is no way a translation thing. They legitimately just don’t pay enough attention and jump to conclusions. They barely get what’s happening on screen sometimes, let alone what’s said
@@pj_spirit That's why you force them to pay attention by reading subs.
YuSooKey They’d catch even less, let’s be honest. They’re too busy making jokes and getting mad at stuff because they don’t understand. They miss and misinterpret stuff on screen as it is and look away at each other.
What's amazing is that not even one of them got it right....I mean out of everyone I was hoping atleast one would be paying attention but nope. "What do you like about stain?"
"I like his art style"
🤦🏾♂️
That scene with the blood licking to paralyze the nomu seems to confuse everyone lol
Endeavor's power is so insane. I remember saying 'Holy SHIT" when I saw him run up the wall by melting the surface of the building. He's still a POS tho. 🤷🏽♀️
(Edit: spelling)
Hopefully yall get a better understanding of the importance of stain in the next episode. He was chaotic good. One of the best example of that i can think of too.
No he absolutely was not and anyone who thinks he is has been completely tricked by his words that sound deep but are actually stupid. Stain has no point I’ve made this argument a million times. He’s essentially their world equivalent of that dude who always complains about wanting to go back to the fifties. He’s stuck in a past definition of hero that just can’t apply anymore becuase it’s a real thing now and not an abstract concept and he never provides even one example of how so called false hero’s hurt society and that’s because their aren’t any (don’t mention endeavor becuase he didn’t hurt society he hurt his family which is a horrible thing he’s hut a private matter.
Nah stains neutral not good
Nagoya Yoshida I like how he’s a great example of someone who is both chaotic good AND a villain. As in, he’s the bad guy of our story but to him, he’s doing everything for a “good” reason, chaotically
@@DumbIdeaPresentedStupidly how neutral? He does what he does for the sake of society as a whole by weeding out the "fake" or unqualified heros.
@@thehoodlen yeah i just wish he was around for longer. Really badass character overall.
Stain was really strong, he held off 3 powerful "heroes" at the same time for a while.
when the anime spoon feeds you the details.. but u prefer something else
I really like this episode we get to see Stains ideology and yea Stain is just unconscious that’s it his powers had nothing to do with it lol he broken rib pierced his lung and that’s it and he was calling Endeavor a fake hero
Btw for anyone wondering, in his last moments standing, the thing that kept the heroes from moving wasn't Stain's quirk, but his killing intent and conviction. Pretty similar to the concept of the Conqueror's Haki from One Piece.
I loved this reaction! You where all sooo into it and made it fun. Don't sweat about getting some things wrong with Stain. I got confused a bit too at first :)
"this episode is called climax"
"Oh YeAh I aM rEaDy FoR tHe ReLeAsE"
I see what you did there.
People are so mad in the comments lmao it's not that serious
0:53 you know it's about to get real when the PLUS ULTRA hat gets brought out!!
Stain was more of an anti-hero. He seemed to have a lot in common with Zabusa from Naruto. Also, personality wise, Endeavor isn't better than him. Stain was only after the people who became hero coz it was cool or went after personal gain and also those who got in the way of his goal to purge such selfish people. The only problem was that he was too extreme but then, even the #2 hero Endeavor is the same way at times. And the own blood licking conclusion? I have no idea how that came up, lol.😆
Nikhil Jose Prakash he is not an anti hero and neither was zabusa. They are both villains 100% having someone you care about doesn’t make you auto good villains can have loved ones to. Stain is 120% an insane villiam
@@kamronspencer4910 yeah, you're right about that but they both are central characters in their respective arcs without evil motives. Stain wanted to purge fake heroes and Zabusa was just doing the job he was hired for. Only the ways they employed were extreme and cold hearted. Also, they didn't care how they reached the end result.
Nikhil Jose Prakash stains goal isn’t good though he only thinks it is cause he’s delusional. He never gives any evidence to show how so called fake hero’s hurt society and that’s cause there isn’t any. Having more hero’s hurts nothing and he actually accomplished nothing. Even the drop in crime mentioned is only because him showing up basically activates martial law in that town the hero’s have to patrol so much more trying to find him That other villains decide not to commit crimes until the increased security is removed. Once he’s moved on and the now smaller number of hero’s goes back to normal procedure crime goes right back up to normal. His entire ideology is nonsense and not even close to realistic for the world to survive with.
@@kamronspencer4910 you're right about what you said and that's why I agreed with you before. Then again, heroes with selfish motives are paid and looked after by the government using the taxes paid by the people. Not a good thing there. And delusional or extreme ways are part of villain and anti hero traits. 😅
Nikhil Jose Prakash how is it no good? They still save lives and capture villains and of course they need to get paid for it because they have to support themselves and their families. Why does it matter why they got into the job? Again your thinking of hero as our worlds definition because hero’s aren’t real here but in my hero’s world hero’s are basically cops (even though cops also exist) you think every single cop got into the job solely to protect people no but as long as they don’t turn dirty or corrupt it doesn’t matter why they did it cause they still keep us safe. Stain has no point in any way.
Tenya’s quirk absolutely does give him an engine in his legs. There’s a pretty cool moment in a later arc that shows crazy weird development of his quirk
This is why dubs are bad for reactions, they talk over the dialogue and can’t hear it. They should at least put subtitles on the dub when they watch.
Daniel Tenorio no, I think they’re just dumb
I dont think dub are bad, just that the reactor never really think. Also they should put some subtitle on the dub so that they can catch the words easily
That doesn't make sense. That's just like saying that's how all american tv shows are bad to react to because you could talk over the dialogue.
One of the best episodes of MHA.
Glad you enjoyed it guys
The episode, yes. The reaction, no.
Random fact that doesn't have any significance:
Iida's legs run on orange juice.
What do you mean? This is the most significant fact of the entire series. He even brought them to the recap episode of Season 3 Episode 1
Damn MHA stans don't hold back lmao
A lot of people tend to misinterpret the end of the episode but there was this small part of me that hoped they would catch it since they're watching HXH at the same time where the concept of bloodlust being paralyzing is brought up multiple times. Then again fights also tend to take a really long time in HXH (which isn't a criticism because I like the writing) and Naruto (which is a criticism because that show got boring) so the change in pace probably confused them.
Also if they feel that they must talk over plot based shows with a lot of narration, they might want to start using subtitles. You can still watch the dub and have subtitles on to not miss any information, it's not one over the other.
Pretty sure hxh pacing in fights is worse there's an episode where they literally stretch a minute for literally an episode
@@tykimikk7872 Oh yeah it's definitely ridiculously slow and the Chimera Ant arc certainly has its downfalls (don't want to say any more about it since there's definitely people skimming the comments who haven't seen that far even if it came out 8 years ago). But at least its fights aren't solved with protagonist-kun's friendship powers or who can scream louder. A hole MHA thankfully doesn't seem to be falling down since it's following HXH in actually developing its characters and as far as I remember the only conflict solved through the power of friendship was Todoroki who wasn't a villain to begin with.
@@theatregeek299 I've never really noticed that happening in Naruto personally that's more of a fairy tail thing
@@tykimikk7872 Naruto falls more into the characters just suddenly evolve to new power levels. That's why one of the jokes is that they're ninjas that barely use ninja tools. I'd personally say that they're ninjas in name only. But yeah, fairy tail is much bigger culprit of it.
@@theatregeek299 Its supposed to be a spin on traditional ninjas not literal copies otherwise there wouldnt be powers to begin with
Endeavor vs Firelord Ozai ?
I think you're overthinking it. He passed out because his ribs pierced his lung. I think that would take most people out.
Stain could have literally killed all 3 of them if he wanted to but he clearly didn't.
Getting *real* Garou up in here.
Stain's definition of "fake heroes" applies to the heroes that have alot of hype behind their names. He believes that those who work as Heroes to collect income are unworthy of being called the name and only All Might is a true hero. They also seem to mostly care for the popularity that they have, not so much for the people they save. Some of these might include Mt. Lady and Endeavor. In their own rights, Mt. Lady and Endeavor are heroes who have the attitudes of glory-hogging braggarts and attention hogs. Just think back to when Mt. Lady was first introduced in the show and how smug she was when she took all the credit.
He believes All Might is worthy because All Might genuinely did what he did to save people. To Stain, All Might is the only true hero that exists in the society of My HeroAcademia. He respects All Might to such a degree that he says that All Might is worthy of stopping him. The same can be said for Deku (which is partly why Stain saved Deku).
"carbonised cells cannot regenerate"
Damn he's so badass
That would’ve been useful info to the Z fighters when they were fighting Cell.
"im ready for the release" WOAHH WOAH WOAH lmao
I love you guys, but I can not belive what I hear...the fight was not easy in anyway. Even without his quirk Stain was far better then the three students. Reflex, speed and had more experience in combat.
He is clearly one of the best "vilain" in that show 😁🤙🏽
“blue fire!”
*laughs in a couple episodes/season three* MY BOY IS NEAR
that standoff was way better in the Japanese version
If they don't understand this, just wait to "that talk" when All Might explain Deku the origin of "you know what"......... pls god help us...
ENDEAVOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can't wait for the anime to catch up!
But I'm WAY MORE excited for this next season, gonna be the best in my opinion!
yeah! I've already more or less marked down season five on my calender :D
STAIN IS THE COOLEST DOOOOG I LOVE HIM ALSO YALL ARE AWESOME
You guys should check out Haikyuu, banana fish, Re zero, Assassination classroom. They are all awesome
BTW, this final scene was a huge hint and foreshadowing towards the concept of 'Awakened Quirks' introduced later. It's implied Stain, under stress, unleashed an awakened version of Bloodcurdle before passing out. Awesome foreshadowing.
Damn it Chris I execpt you to be carring these reactions, and not to make these mistakes...
P.S turn on the subs if you guys won't be listening so you can at least read it...
Everyone slips up once in a while
I expected Mickey to drop the remote again right before the kick! 😂
I love you guys but do you not know what a pierced lung is? lol.
Hero Hunter Garou versus Hero Killer Stain, who you got?
Mrjay 27 Stain; Garou can bleed and gets his blood everywhere, yea you may be strong but your strength doesn’t matter if your Neurones won’t fire
Stain is a perfect example of an anti-hero he is no villain but he is also no hero
Yes, wife beater and child abuser Endeavor is indeed a hero.
Whaaat? You concluded that he was out cold because HE LICKED HIS OWN BLOOD?!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
No wonder they r called the normies🤣
I don’t think studio Bones (group C I believe) get enough credit for how amazing they make this show look. There’s a reason they exclusively work on MHA.
why people still mad? you guys(subscriber the normies) must be know this is like "classic issue" from the normies right? xD
People in this show break their bones and basically say "dID I jUst BrEak my aRm?"
8:52 I don't know the hero's name with the horns but his design is one of my favorites; he looks so cool to me.
5:14-6:04 & 7:48-8:31 been waiting on this since the arc started. Loved the reaction! Marketa's best boy Iida destroyed Stain's rib cage!!
The way I explain Stains' killing intent moment to people who don't understand it is that it's essentially the Chaotic version of the way Midoriya sees All Might. You know how we typically see the Number One Hero as this intensely charismatic figure, projecting his feelings of strength and righteousness just by his reputation and physical presence? it's the same thing with Stain, only inverted. His own fanaticism and never-say-die attitude, willing to take on half a dozen heroes (including the Number Two) with nothing more than a switchblade, combined with his roared litany of convictions, stunned everyone into immobility.
If stain was paralyzed from his own quirk which im pretty sure isnt possible, he would have dropped to the ground from all of his limbs going limp
