If Overhaul had decided to cut loose, the streets could have been littered with the corpses of school children trying to get home… Mirio was a real hero there. Quick on his feet, able to assess the situation and react in a way that would shield both his partner, the girl and innocent bystanders from harm. Ok, Deku has more of that blind idealism thing that’s going to get everyone killed going on, but Mirio was amazing. I thought wow, Mirio would have made a great successor for All Might. Irina, what did you think of this moment? In fact, Mirio had almost disentangled them from the situation when something happened that would force Izuku to make a choice.Īs Izuku tried to stand to follow Mirio away from this confrontation, Eri grabbed his shirt and, in an utterly terrified voice, asked him not to go. Nighteye had warned them not to make Overhaul suspicious, because he was under surveillance. Mirio’s goal was to get away as fast as possible. Mirio tried to dissemble, too (and he’s really, really good at it!), saying they were sorry they’d run into her. He showed some of that discipline when he said Eri was his daughter and they were having a little father/daughter dispute. We also know how disciplined he is, and that combination makes him deadly. It was almost like skipping a week increased the tension - because we know just what Overhaul’s capable of. In an instant, both Izuku and Mirio/Lemillion recognized Kai Chisaki/Overhaul. Now that you mention it, it did seem more practical… Wait, now I’ve lost my train of thought. You know, now that Irina mentions it, Mirio’s costume is a solid, practical costume! Easy identification, too! I wonder what Edna Mode would say about the cape, though… Capture from the Crunchyroll stream. Honestly most of the MHA characters manage to not look completely ridiculous in their costumes which is an achievement but Mirio looked down right at home. That’s when Eri crashed into him.Ĭan I just stop you for a second there to say how goods Mirio’s hero costume is. Izuku/Deku was worried about what Nighteye had told him he wondered why Toshinori/All Might hadn’t clued him in. This episode starts just a couple of minutes before that as Izuku and Mirio were walking down the street. You remember how the previous episode ended, right? Eri had bounced off Izuku while he and Mirio were on what was supposed to be a routine patrol. This 26 minutes of nothing happening non action felt like 5, tops. I had to go check to make sure they weren’t rolling in the middle of the episode for some reason. Was watching this episode and thinking, boy nothing really happened did it? Non action is right and then the closing credits stated rolling. I’m going to just throw my closing thoughts out here. I’m going to change it up and do something craaaazy. Before we dive in, do you have any opening thoughts on the episode, Irina? All while building on the ideas of hero-dom that Irina talked about in our review of episode 66. It starts with about seven minutes of the most effective non-action thrills that I’ve ever seen in anime, followed by the setup for the scenes that took last week’s previews and went in a completely different direction. This episode was something that only a long-running series like My Hero Academia could give us.
