She sniped from the hospital guys. Girlie got up out a hospital bed to make a crazy shot from I think 200 km away

[@ZenAki]

Snipe-sensei did say in an interview that if it was a match between him and her: he would lose. And this is proof that that claim. She shot the wrist from 200 km. That's insane!

Same, man. This was SATISFYING.

@@mtai9528 I mean, at least (most) people know what they were saying anyway. Its a pretty common phrase. Coulda been way worse

[@DetroitSmash]

*Gentle and Lady Nagant. Their journeys started with wanting to be heroes, and they really pulled through and proved how truly heroic they are. Not to mention powerful. Gentle did so much work behind the scenes and I can’t imagine how hard La Brava must be working too! Same for Lady Nagant. She’s hospitalized, but still landed that shot perfectly! Even now, they have the hearts of heroes.*

[@اميرمادرا]

I agree with you here am happy my boy shigarki back here have nice day❤

[@CorynSilver]

And at its core, that's what the show is about. Its not about super powers, its about having the heart and soul of a hero, even if you dont have powers. Deku showed us that Episode 2 of the whole series.

[@technote5124]

​​@@CorynSilver "it's about having the heart and soul of a hero" trust me, keep those words in high regard. A certain someone is going to embody those words soon

[@HaydrogenBomb]

The fans who actually liked Gentle's arc in season four: "HE'S BAAAAAAACK!!"

[@Omasisi]

So many people disrespected the gentle criminal arc but its low-key so underrated and so important to the story of MHA

[@shadowwordpain3138]

So many of us want to think we'd be Deku when it would be easy for us to end up like Gentle or La Brava instead

[@HexanTronic]

They were so focused on the music I think they didn't even notice the mention that thanks to Gentle, his prison has NO Villains escape.

[@blackangelohhh]

[@HaydrogenBomb]

Forreal. I don't know which is a bigger flex.

[@StruckByBelz]

Naa we caught it. I think I even said he kept everyone from escaping.

[@IvLixer]

They caught it for sure.

[@HexanTronic]

@StruckByBelz Ah, must have missed it.

[@natsuotodoroki]

It’s great to see Gentle, Nagant, and La Brava coming back and be the heroes they’ve always dreamed of being. Also, it’s time for Touya to get the attention he deserves.

[@gr8atness]

This was so hyped when it dropped in the manga. Two former enemies have joined forces with Deku. That is too dope.🔥

[@Gamerjrpro23]

This episode was absolutely peak, the music, the animation, the quality.. everything was on point… Also about all might you are all not ready for what’s coming for him.. he’s going to try to fight a certain someone..

[@nightsxgames]

I cant wait for that fight - This season has been much more than expected... amazing job.

[@Lc-Anders]

Please don’t be telling them he’s gonna fight again. Like no one is expecting that since he’s out of commission so this is just a big spoiler in itself even if you’re not saying who it’s against

[@xanspows3095]

@@Gamerjrpro23 all for one and stain helps him

[@sammy0493]

My hero really used their characters cast really well and you can see it clearly in this war, with Yaoyorozu create the spare, Kaminari as living battery, Shinsou and Monoma for splitting the villain (well this one backfire now) and Monoma copying Aizawa quirk and this episode we saw three villain being used, LaBrava for her quirk and knowledge to counter Skeptic hacking, Gentle to make sure the island stay afloat since the levitation system broke down and finally Lady Nagant as sniper. You really love to see all these characters come together to defeat Shigaraki and the others.

[@Hemlocker]

It's Best Jeanist's "threads of fate" monologue. It sums up the entire show.

[@blackangelohhh]

all I gotta say, my jaw was on the floor the whole episode 🔥So much shi is happening man. like I forgot to breathe at some points 😐 As an anime only… this is PREMIUM 🤌🏾✨ and the fact they played “MightU” as the background music for Gentle Criminal 😭

[@tasbeerahmed5765]

Gentle Criminal ❌ Gentle Goat 🐐 ✅

[@GhostHn_504]

Gentle's story line is so good. In this world with quirks you're just one bad choice away from going through the wrong path. He redeemed himself due to Deku and the love he feels for La Braava.

[@max_mojo4917]

@@GhostHn_504 The funny thing is that what gentle did wasn't wrong just like Deku he too acted without a second thought to try and save someone but he was unlucky and it bit him hard

[@mediumtext8038]

@@max_mojo4917 The only reason why Deku didn't become like him was because Deku didn't have any quirk, so he didn't violate the quirk law, thus not getting punished.

[@pariah1165gaming]

I cried at the Gentle moment at the end! 😭 Gentle and La Brava are genuinely in my top 5 characters in the show. Their hearts are so sweet and I love how they're written and I NEVER expected they'd come back as more than a filler arc but I'm SO happy they did! 🥹 PS: Also yeah big ups to Belz for remembering all the returning characters names! There’s a ton to remember in this show! 😂

[@max_mojo4917]

It ain't filler if it's in the manga tho

[@bdiax]

This was one piece levels of call back 😂 this is the best part of long term anime. If they do it right the call backs impact so much harder

Honestly Seeing Gentle and Lady Nagant coming to Deku’s Rescue after their Tango from S4 and 6 is Honestly WHOLESOME as hell.

I did remember deku said every prison had had escapees except for one when it actually happened. I attributed that to the hero’s the first time I heard it but now I dead gotta put respect on his name

[@MarvyG23]

Man, it's so nice to see Gentle, La Brava, and Lady Nagant again all pulling their respective roles in order to repay Midoriya's kindness.

Man they are not ready for the real reason All Might is leaving with his briefcase.

[@sekkobryn98]

@@AndrewTheKingOfPenguins literally no one is, I expect it’ll be season 8s opener or mid season finale

[@RectPropagation]

Another thing about this episode is Deku's reaction to realizing Gentle was there: Up until this point, Deku didn't know his reaching out to villains had actually worked. With Gentle (IIRC) he never says to Deku that he changed his mind. Deku had to defeat him physically and any regret/remorse Gentle felt was internal dialogue. It flat out didn't work with Muscular and it almost get Lady Nagant killed. This moment was the first time Deku has gotten proof a villain can become a hero.

[@hoshi32218]

Gentle soloed that whole prison all by himself, without la brava’s quirk. I guess thats why those villains are locked up lol theyre all trash😂

[@koopatroopa1316]

This episode was sooo damn good! I've been waiting for Gentles return. His arc was actually entertaining I never understood why it got so much hate. They better start calling him Gentle Hero now! Mad respect to Gentle, Labrava and Lady Nagant. So good to have them all back.

[@LimaoAzedo536]

I really like this final arc, it has so many amazing moments, I love this story !

Amazing episode one of the episodes that I have been waiting to see in the anime since we started season 7. After this episode I have 2 other thing left that I can't wait to see your guys reactions to it because "but wait... there is more!" and those are my favorite moments in the whole series.

[@shiroreborn1991]

Lady Nagant and Gentle Criminal are some of the best MHA Characters. Love them

Gentle the goat

[@hailbryceexperience3496]

I swear all characters big or small matter in this show.

[@starshipfame1]

This was definitely a redemption episode

[@nightsxgames]

Missed an important line in your edits. The 2nd tells Deku @12 minutes into the episode - "Everything that happened up until now will definitely help you." This was foreshadowing the appearance of La Brava / Gentle / and Nagant to help.

The music, animation and art was so good this episode 🔥

[@nichescenes]

Crazy how manga fans said they hate this arc and anime onlies enjoy it. Like how manga fans said AOT was trash post season 3 and anime onlies enjoyed it. Even funnier that the manga fans were claiming jjk Shyabiua arc beats or contest hxh chimera ant and bleach soul society yet anime onlies liked it but thought the pace was overwhelming. Proves to me that a series with fast pacing manga people enjoy feels off anime wise it’s best to binge manga if you get too impatient. All great series also which don’t need comparisons their all doing their strengths well and no series is good at everything. Someone has a flaw others consider a feature of their favorite series. Like how people hate yapping in jjk but I like it in hxh. Makes fights strategic and intense.

[@Nemesis10001]

YEAH LADY GAGA IS BACK !!!!

[@skyicy7383]

I was quite happy to see gentle and labrava again, but I was honestly sure Nagant died last time after exploding, so that def caught me off guard.

[@Nekotaku_TV]

I cried when Gentle was powered up by La Brava. And Deku realizing. So beautiful.

[@springdeerling7866]

I remember seeing a manga panel of gentle returning but seeing it actually happen with all the context made me cry, same when nagant appeared.

[@vc180191]

It's still mad to think that out of all of the officers, guards and Heroes that tried to stop the breakout of each prison, Gentle by himself subdued every last criminal in his, including taking down every Villain that helped break them out. He did the work of hundreds by himself without Aiba's Love power while already weak from imprisonment and did it better than any other prison with his being the only prison with no escapees. He literally slapped down roughly 1/8th of All for One's prospective army recruits by himself. Even without the Love buff man is a legend

[@MrOnetedify]

how does his power work exactly.... i feel like his potential can be unlimited... and the only thing holding him back is the shows story writing lol.

[@hectorpuente3040]

Gentle Went to my top 10 after this. I already thought he was cool but a flawless victory againts a prison and then lifting an island is a feat worthy of the top 10

[@SheldonDarianRoach]

People fault deku for crying there, but he's literally a kid with the entire world on his shoulders, and he couldn't stop Shigaraki fully and now Gearshift is wearing down on him. He probably was relieved as hell to see folks he put away heloing him out. It just shows the gravity of this situation, all hands on deck

[@jewelabyss]

One of the few anime that put a lot of writing into the side characters🔥

[@tommcburney301]

I wouldn't say that Gentle is a anti-hero. As he labelled himself as a modern day Gentleman Theif. A gentleman or lady thief is characterised by impeccable manners, charm, courtesy, and the avoidance of physical force or intimidation to steal, and often has inherited wealth. But I understand your reasoning.

[@Orangepeel02]

Awesome reaction!!

Why is Gentle so strong here? Because La Brava's love is now much stronger. Why is La Brava's love so strong? Because Gentle is happy so La Brava is even happier. Why is Gentle happy? Because he is able to actually help this time.
