Avis de la communauté (4)
Like season 4, season 5 is another example of a fairly weak season that really picked itself up towards the end. Generally speaking, the class a vs class b training felt pretty boring and unnecessary, though it was very interesting seeing some of class b's quirks, and while it was intriguing to go further into the messy family situation of todoroki, i felt like the way it wrapped up felt a tad forced. however, the my villain academia section was some of the best stuff i've seen from this show, with shimura's backstory episode being by far my favorite episode in this season, possibly the entire show. this series also seems to be building up to a look into how people treat those with "bad" quirks. where shogaraki is essentially avoided at all cost because his quirk is so dangerous. if this goes further, it could either go really well, or become like the house elf slavery plot point from harry potter, i'm just holding my breath to see which is becomes.
Ngl, i kinda want My Villain Academy real
Why does he say carousel like that in the intro!? :/
Probably the weakest season of MHA. I think that for a few reasons. I am mainly attracted to this show for the hype moments. Characters "breaking" their limits. Yelling loudly while destroying villains or themselves. It's a good time. The slow character progression in the students and villains is a bonus. But this season barely had any hype moments. There's a couple of breakthroughs for the plot - like Black Whip and the evolution of the league of villains - but the filler in-between is so boring that it felt like a chore to get through. It's not offensively bad but it's such a step in a different direction that I am pretty disappointed. I hope next season picks up and is a lot more interesting from moment to moment. And they better have cooler hype moments.
