The HERO We NEEDED!! My Hero Academia - 7x12 - Those Who Defend, Those Who Violate

[@TheReactPack]

Hey guys!! This video kept getting hit so we had to chop away at a lot! Full video is available on our Patreon!

[@Mnkeys]

Left this comment on all these reactions but I LOVE that Edgeshot isn't quiet and solemn. He's furious and he's pissed. His sacrifice hits harder than Bakugo's death (even when I believed it) tbh...He isn't old, just 33 years old. And he refuses to accept the reality thats been thrown infront of him. Someone screaming to keep fighting and putting his body through the worst hell out of spite? Yeah, theres nobody better suited to be Bakugo's heart.

[@seandonnellan5980]

Well said, buddy. Well said

[@RayGainbows]

Tbh i was more upset with Bakugos death than with Edge Shots sacrifice when i read the manga. It was cool and all but it didn't hit right. But here in anime format, Edge Shot made me tear up hella bad. This was so well done.

[@albaosherwint.8280]

ALMIGHT had his last puch: Oh no! MIRIO loses his quirk: Oh no! ENDEVOUR loses his hand: Oh no! JIRO loses her ear: Oh no! BAKUGO loses his heart: Oh no! EDGESHOT sacrifice: Oh no! While mirko: We used to that.

Is it just me or are all females in mha are badass. This show has given my daughter so many great characters who actually stand for something good.❤

[@getoffmygrass4857]

Bakugo should’ve died, I can’t take this show seriously 😭

[@Certid]

@@frostydinosaur8187 You can't just kill off a character of that caliber just like that. The Bakugo and Deku dynamic is what makes the show.

[@hkaayaakuu]

​@@frostydinosaur8187I agree. As people say, nobody dies in this show

[@James-wv3kq]

@@Certid in my opinion, if they weren’t gonna keep him dead, it should have never happened to begin with. I was frustrated in the manga when he wasn’t even dead for a few chapters before they were like “yea we can bring him back” and it felt even less impactful here because he was gone for not even a full episode before they were saying he can come back. That’s my opinion

[@yasho9313]

​@@hkaayaakuu Bro really said nobody 💀

[@itzmehDevi]

Some people say Edgeshot saving Bakugo is just plot convenience..But I disagree. The adults made literal kids fight in a war. They should take responsibility even at the cost of their lives. Edgeshot did his duty. He is amazing. Not all can do that..despite it being something they should do.

[@Okkotsu86275]

Mirko continues to show why she is one of the top ranking ladies in MHA, but in anime in general. That lady is a pure beast. These villains need to stop taking her limbs!!!!!!

[@CheezburgerSub]

Mirko is not only one of the best ladies, she's the #5 Hero

[@Lonewulf321]

Mirio Double cheeked up on a Tuesday

[@blazedj]

You gotta love Miriko for her tenacity. I have to take a moment if a digit or limb even bends the wrong way a little too much, but here she is tearing her body to pieces with hardly a flinch. I really do believe if she actually did end up as just a head, she’d still roll with it and try to bite her way to victory.

[@RayGainbows]

I smashed my finger a bit at work and it bled through my glove. I had to sit down because i was feeling nauseous and got pale and clammy. It took me like 5 min before i could look at it. dude... it was literally a wound 1/4" long on my pinky. I could never be as badass as Mirko. 😭

[@midoriya-shonen]

Didn't realize until today that Miruko's "If only I'd been a little faster" inner monologue is especially sad because her motto has always been to have no regrets 😢

[@narukunn5152]

Shiggy, Dabi and AFO are prime examples of why you shouldn’t underestimate the villains of mha

[@youngleon7539]

“Oh no he’s hot” the EXACT REACTION. Even funnier because he’s naked and when Squidward said this line he was imagining Squilliam in his underwear

Yes your ritht here he loook dripy too have nice day my❤

[@derick_ab]

That seriously was my reaction too when I read that manga chapter lolol

[@slowflowsen498]

1:51 I think Sam is trying to say the build up execution of Bakugo's death wasn't _explosive_ enough

[@coco-sh2ny]

The pro/adult heroes either losing limbs, or their lives one by one, but their deaths won't go in vain. I literally bawled when Edgeshot sacrificed himself, my eyes were so sore, and it's stings the moment I woke up in the morning. And seeing your reaction and this episode again, now I'm crying again😭

[@DetroitSmash]

*Lemillion’s talk with Shigaraki really stuck with me if I’m being honest. He actually tried to speak with him, and when he hurt his feelings, he actually apologized. He’s a person first, and a threat second, and he even managed to make him laugh...* *Also, Edgeshot is one of my new favorites for what he did here. Thank you Edgeshot*

[@anusaukko6792]

@@_solajs_3110 Out of every trope, cliche, and overused plot-point that MHA has had during its journey, Mirio showing his ass to throw off Shigaraki is one of the few that was executed incredibly well.

[@MrSmee-vt7cy]

I have a feeling what Mirio did to temporarily stall shigaraki was what he did to get nighteye to laugh. As much as I was in the river denial, I was sad when edgeshot gave up his life to save Bakugo but respect for taking responsibility because somewhere in these comments, someone mentioned, and I agree that these adult heroes are responsible for bringing these kids into an all-out war against highly dangerous villains.

[@omegashark1837]

9:02, yes exactly! That was everyone’s reaction to that. 😂

[@mentholnewport]

I feel like I might understand Sam's point in the beginning. If I think of Bakugo sacrificing himself or dying, I imagine him going all out and fighting like Mirko. Obviously he can't move without a heart, but him going down in one swift shot feels off for Bakugo. It's done on purpose to show how strong Shigaraki is, but I get her sentiment(I think lol)

[@MrJ4Y]

"Never give the villains time to prepare". Glad that at least shiggy knew that vigilante deku's decision to fight the villains early was right.

[@_alraz_]

[@Dlmdjjk]

LOVE THE TSHIRT SAM!!!

[@jl5574]

I’m glad that Bakugo (seems to be?) coming back cause his story felt unfinished but I feel like MHA has got into a habit of immediately undercutting every big moment. Star sacrifices herself in a badass way to seriously damage Shigaraki and take away a bunch of his quirks… and it turns out he just has to rest for a week. Todoroki has a big cathartic moment in putting down Dabi, then Dabi is recovered two episodes later. Then Bakugo literally dies and one week later there’s a weird ass pull where he’s resurrected, the only consequence is a very minor character no one cares about has to go. I feel like the author wants the benefit of creating these grand sweeping epic moments without having to actually write through the consequences. And it’s diminishing returns every time, I’m not a manga reader but Bakugo’s death didn’t hit as hard cause I kinda figured something like this would happen.

[@CheezburgerSub]

I was screaming to Mirio "SHOW HIM YOUR BUTT! SHOW HIM YOUR BUTT!!!"

[@hay_Z2021]

YASSSSSS 💀💀

[@mhs90]

I didnt really understand where Mirko bit Shigaraki to make him temporarily stunned ..or what Bakugo did that made Shigaraki “accumulate damage” .

[@CDexie]

Mirko didn't "bite" him, she kicked the shit out of him. ShigAFO believes to be in the perfect body, but it's still taking damage that can't be healed due to Erasure, but he doesn't accept that and throws his emotions into turmoil, which further weaken him. That's why he rationalizes away the "accumulated damage" to "I was actually feeling threatened?!" when it was both.

[@hkaayaakuu]

[@dhygin]

They babyfied Nighteye 😂

[@MeLlamoSemi]

In the anime they haven't explained it well, and maybe it's just me being confused with what I remember, but it's not that Shigaraki hit Bakugo in the heart, it's more that the new way Bakugo's qirk was working was putting too much tension in his heart, and his heart literally exploded in that last attack.,,,,,,,,To be fair, it's not that anyone was going to imagine that Edgeshot ''could'' do that with his qirk, it's just that this is a shonen, anything is possible with the power of the script hahahahahaha

[@yasmin2867]

Tbh one of the worst episodes of the whole series imo, the amount of nonsense and ass pulling was insane.
