Soft strings play – and increase in power – as the sun sets and a golden glow frames the two protagonists. The majority of this second half, however, is a phenomenal emotional rollercoaster of a tête-à-tête between Midoriya and All Might. Though not nearly enough – this season so far has failed to give us any time with Bakugo, Iida, Ochako, or Todoroki (Todoroki doesn’t even get a single line here, and yet we have to suffer a waste of a comment from worst boy Minoru). Here's everything we know about S4 from the manga:Īs for the episode’s second half, we get a tiny bit of time with the rest of Class 1-A. Still, for all the wisdom demonstrated in the episode’s first half, it’s still a shame that Bubble Girl’s outfit is so ridiculous. Mirio’s astute judgement proves correct in the face of Deku’s urge to run headlong into danger when Sir Nighteye joins them and warns Deku that “haste makes waste.” Here we can see not only the wisdom in Sir Nighteye but the ways in which Mirio has clearly taken his lessons to heart – something that Deku must also quickly learn to do. We see here so much intelligence hiding behind that grinning Tintin expression. He isn’t proud he is willing to seek help. He knows when to retreat, how far a hero should pry, when a situation is more dangerous than it outwardly appears. Mirio knows the importance of wearing his mask. It’s a great way of solidifying the difference between the two heroes in a single second, and also shows a side of Mirio that is far more savvy than the happy-go-lucky boy we’ve mostly seen up until this episode. As Overhaul attempts to explain the situation away, there’s a critical and tense moment where Lemillion, the more experienced hero, attempts to dispel the tension created by Deku, but heart-of-gold Midoriya is clueless to the sensitivity of the moment and becomes naively righteous at the wrong moment. She has already appeared in the OP and now Overhaul is here to claim that she is his daughter, and that her trembling terror – as she clings onto Deku and won’t let go – isn’t due to anything malicious. The encounter between Deku, Lemillion, and Overhaul begins with the abrupt introduction of Eri, a character who will go on to be a key player in this season. His whole aesthetic is a hodgepodge of ideas that shouldn’t work but very much does, nonetheless. And the gold trim on his plague doctor mask is so ostentatious compared to his cheap-looking jacket and sneakers. ![]() The purple fur collar juxtaposes so campily with the black shirt and white tie. Overhaul’s outfit (can we call it a costume?) still looks so good in the anime. ![]() It starts off the episode on an adorable note. It’s also delightful that the first split-second of the episode is a shot of a quirked hetero couple – him with cat ears and her with dog ears. ![]() And all this before the OP, the happy melody of which all of a sudden comes across as far more jarring than exciting. It’s not an explosion of fists but, instead, it’s a shock moment that sends a palpable chill down the viewer’s spine. Deku has gone from seeing a photo of our new villain in profile in Episode 3 to coming face-to-face with him on a crowded street at the start of Episode 4. In the second minute we’re blindsided by the appearance of Overhaul from the shadows of an alley. One million is what he considers doable and respectable. He knows he’s not perfect he won’t shoot for the impossible but he has standards and he vows to do his best. It’s a clever way of communicating to the audience Mirio’s grounded nature. Before completely falling apart, Twice apologizes, and Toga thanks him for saving her.The costume and name double down on his philosophy of keeping one million people safe. A hero catches Compress and Toga, but Twice’s last double saves them. Despite this, Hawks manages to defeat Twice. Dabi even calls Hawks by his real name, surprising him. Dabi attacks Hawks and Twice tries to escape. He says he never trusted Hawks in the first place. Shortly after, Dabi appears and attacks Hawks. Twice decides to fight back, but Hawks’ feathers are too fast for him. Tokoyami learns that they have a lot of information thanks to Hawks. Dark Shadow informs Tokoyami of a “monster” in the group, but Fat Gum tells him the monster won’t make a move. Meanwhile, Tokoyami uses Dark Shadow to help Fat Gum seal off Re-Destro’s group. Hawks offers to help him start over, but Twice says he’s protecting his friends’ happiness. ![]() Twice has flashbacks from Overhaul and gets emotional. Meanwhile, Edge Shot, Midnight, and the others continue moving forward. While waiting for the others, Re-Destro learns they are under attack.
