DEKU VS CLASS 1A | My Hero Academia Season 6 Episode 23 REACTION

[@StruckByBelz]

What an amazing Episode of My Hero! Truly one of my favorites to date! That Bakugo moment hit us right in the feels 😭

[@hardymonty]

I agree with you two. Anybody who says MHA isn't one of the greatest modern anime's... hasn't been paying attention. This show has action, character development, story, and heart. MHA sets the standard for what it means to be a hero... and not from some corny perspective. Izuku Midorya as a character... is completely and totally selfless. His perception of self... is that he exists to save others. It's what Bakugo has come to recognize... He... like many others... has been inspired. And not by All Might. Bakugo has been inspired by Deku. His body... much like Deku's in previous seasons/episodes... has learned to "move on it's own". Deku as a hero... is improving hero society in real time. He makes the characters in the show want to be better heroes. And he makes us... as people watching the show... want to be better human beings.

[@golden_eye2156]

Bakugo's apology was perfect. No excuses, no "but I'll still beat you", no screams and no insults, and his voice was very soft spoken! All his growth throughout the show led to this amazing moment 🔥

[@djaafardjaafar7381]

I mean after all that shit and suffering...why the hell will he even think like that

[@hayday2917]

And in the manga (they left this line out of the anime, and god knows why) he said "You don't have to accept this apology, I just want to do this" Maybe not his exact words, but it had the main elements

[@saymou7773]

@@hayday2917 he did say that in the anime. he said 'this wont fix anything but hear what im about to say" then he apologized

[@hailbryceexperience3496]

Completely rewarded fans that have been watching from the beginning. That was a perfect episode.

[@yohannlangton-attang5090]

What made Bakugo's speech even more touching is that was the first time he called Izuku and not Deku 😭😭. This episode was 100% in the feels.

[@craazyae]

A lot of people tend to forget Iida was Deku’s very first friend at UA besides Uraraka. It’s very poetic that at Kamino Ward, both Deku and Bakugou wanted to save each other but knew they couldn’t be the one to do it so they got the closest people to that person (Kirishima and Iida respectively) while using an ice ramp from Shoto 😂

[@playtuber9239]

Yeah yeah. This is at Kamino again?

[@mystical_grace]

@@playtuber9239 Yep. The All Might statue is a memorial to the disaster, and All Might's final fight.

[@JoeMama-sd2kl]

also a great parallel is Iida being the one reaching out to Deku at the air when back then when Iida tried to fight Stain, Deku was the first guy to reach and help him out. Both are being stubborn, telling each other it's not their problem to meddle in.

[@soshikun]

Ice ramp ftw 😂

[@jaycienlovelace3123]

Iida's part was my favorite since hes been there already, he wanted to push away his friends from his revenge but now he's doing for deku what deku once did for him "meddling where you dont need to"

[@collfreeman6883]

Todoroki talking about crying takes me back to Endeavor shouting that succession bullshit at Shoto and we see that single tear roll down his cheek. This whole episode I was tearing up.

[@ShadoRegalia]

dude hearing bakugo's apology just made me tear up so bad

[@mattheffelfinger8263]

Notification squad 💯 I love the impact Midoriya had on the class as a whole and how it takes everyone to make him open his eyes.

[@BasedNate]

Everyone except Aoyama and Hagakure...they did nothing and had no 1 on 1 moment shown. They could have at least done Aoyama seeing as him and deku had almost an episode dedicated to their connection. Edit: I just spoiled myself on something relating to both of those characters in the future. I really need to stop reading anime wikis and other blog posts, I am too curious for my own good 😞

You guys notice that in both the manga and anime that Bakugo, Ida, Ashido, Mineta, and Sero aren't wearing their masks/helmets when Class A was trying to get Deku back to U.A. Even Koda and Kirishima took their headgear off mid-battle.

[@asad_0112]

First AOT made me cry with their latest episode & then this 😭 bakugo apologizing, old ost, animations, voice acting... everything was on point. It's a great episode.

[@apacolypz11]

Yo the VA for Bakugo absolutely nailed the apology! Perfect genuine confession of ones true feelings. Calling Deku Izuku for the first time! Bakugo's growth during the entire run has been handled spend idly. This is exactly what you expect of a partner, rival, friend and Hero! When Class Pres threw back Deku's own words of wisdom back at him also broke me after Bakugo's apology. Just wondering callbacks to again showcase the growth between the two. Amazing Amazing episode, truly brought the pages to life!

[@jalapeno84_25]

The fact that Bakugo called him Izuku for the first time... that tells you everything you need to know

[@AlexDevillord1]

Those who tell MHA is mid - cant see it's cooking. All the seasons, all the arcs lead here, to this moment. Can't wait to see next season already.

[@PainCausingSamurai]

Not only does Iida reach Deku by repeating his own words, but this is the moment where he claims the name 'Ingenium'

[@danielestrada1271]

This is truly a goated episode. I've been waiting for the scene with Midoriya and Bakugo to be animated for a long time and it did NOT disappoint.

[@coolerplays3477]

Especially the You Say Run and animation, and even bakugo's VA nailed it in both sub and dub 😭

[@eliezerosorio2127]

Seeing how everyone was reminiscing and bringing back a time where Deku helped or impacted their lives in a way was very emotional. Iida being the one to grab onto him was fitting and I was already tearing up. It wasn’t enough tho cus when Bakugo was apologizing i geared up even more man 😭. Then Deku falling over and Bakugo catching him was very defeating cus I bawled lol.

[@SleeplessPufo]

What I like about this fight is that is not a physical one but a fight of ideals. Neither side is trying to hurt the other and neither side is going all out.

[@SleeplessPufo]

@J.A Ghoul Yeah thats true

[@amai-w8f]

Class A abbsolutely did everything they could to catch up to Deku while bro was exhausted and not fighting back

[@raec5426]

The scene for the ramp launch is a *parallel* to S3 with Bakugo rescue mission at Kamino (where All Might vs AFO 2 took place) - as they are at the same place now with All Might's statue as a memorial. Iida (not Bakugo) reached for Deku now, as Kirishima (not Deku) reached for Bakugo then.

[@wanna-be-thinker2377]

To catch Deku speed wise: Explosive Speed Turbo + Cluster (Bakugo) + Recipro Boost + Recipro Turbo (Ida) + Flashfreeze Heatwave (Shoto) + Zero Gravity (Ochaco). What a combo!!!!

[@denzel_theasian]

I’d like to point out that they struggled to keep up with a barely 50% Deku, so him saying that they can’t keep up with him isn’t entirely untrue

[@TragicPlayer1]

Yay! The entirety of Class A, who are all in perfect physical shape and were working together were able to catch up to an exhausted Deku who was also probably holding back his strength as to not hurt them. They truly can keep up with him without any help.

[@zachlee3388]

They really can't keep up with him but that's ok

You know what’s crazy? Having a show with so many characters and still being able to give them all development. Of all things I think MHA does this best!

[@coolerplays3477]

Well realistically One Piece does it the best, nothing tops One Piece in character and world developement and that is due to them having 1000+ episodes. I can agree the series drags out and such at times but not even the haters have evidence to prove One Piece having bad world/character development. MHA still does it well but at times they tend to forget about half of Class A lets be honest, and some of them are useless.

[@tobofu5978]

I like them catching up to Deku parallels how Deku tried to save bakugo in kamino. From the combination of quirks to propel them forwards, Shoto making the ice ramp to jump up, and instead of Bakugo being the one to reach out to Deku, he had Iida reach his hand out, just like how Deku had Kirishima reach his hand out instead.

[@thrilla72]

After season 3 , the deku and bakugo scene, it's this confession that made me bawl that much again 😭😭😭😭😭.. I still can't believe how much I cried 😭

[@greyworld6242]

Bakugou’s character development is beautiful!

[@kt-1144]

best thing about this episode was that it was IIda in the end who rescue deku as more than bakugou iida was the first real friend of deku. Bakugou maybe his childhood friend and rival but dekus first friends were iida and uraraka. and not to mention iida rescue deku by saying same exact words that was said by deku during stain arc. And this whole plan to catch upto deku speed is similiar to what deku planned during bakugou rescue in season 3, so bakugou copy deku idea and similiarly just like deku asked kirishima to call bakugou,bakugou asked iida to stop midoriya as he knows iida have more bond with deku than him.

[@hayday2917]

There was a line from the manga that they didn't add, but basically it was Bakugo saying he didn't expect Izuku to forgive him, that he understood why he wouldn't, but he still needed to say it

To really gauge how fast deku's faux 100% is. It took Sato, Shouji, Koda, & Tokoyami to push Them initially, then Todoroki's flashfreeze heatwave to boost them off, with Bakugo's explosive speed cluster, and Iida's recpiro turbo plus Ochaco's zero gravity just to catch up to him.

Even after all that whole rescue mission and apology, Deku still not really feeling okay to stay at UA as he said. He was brought back physically, but he hasn't been fully *"saved"* yet mentally. Like Eri after Overhaul, before cultural festival. Deku was straight up ready to leave after all that work to get him back, but Uraraka had to grab his hand to keep him there. So in the end, she will try to complete this mission so that Deku is fully "saved".

Not gonna lie, but how they managed the turnaround for Bakugo from complete sociopath who in season 1in his anger beat, maybe not a friend but still just someone who has done him no wrong, into the hospital (remember the first deku Bakugo fight where deku ended up with his arm shattered and his other arm and face blown up by Bakugo and he even tried ti seriously hurt him before when he used that AP move on deku with his suit), to this without some kind of melodrama or sacrifice. He simply watched and eventually after some minor teenage outburst cam to the conclusion himself. Well written.

[@VastoFlo13]

In every video I’ve seen of this reaction everyone says the same thing “Bakugo only one that can catch up to him.” Bro the disrespect to Deku even now amazes me.
