All might

whats so funny about the training matches is that half the time its attempted murder before something swoops in to save them/they dodge😭

mina

i am pretty excited for season 5, especially the later half!! can't wait

wadad sk

Monoma is honestly my top 5 characters in the show, can't wait for you guys to get to know him more, he's so silly to me

Liptrouski

Cannon spitting facts, Cars is peak

Fatipapi (Endeavor’s Wife)

😂😂

Fatipapi (Endeavor’s Wife)

Iida was definitely mvp for putting one in jail and saving others tooo

Fatipapi (Endeavor’s Wife)

45:15 carter just zoning out for a whole minute 😂

JoLen

Btw Cannon i hope you know it’s a bit 😭

JoLen

Cannon knowing Nik is so funny

Gabriel Tierra

wheres todays vid boysss

V STAN

Only thing he was wrong about was him being on JJK for the Mahoraga fight. As that was Vincent Chansard a Yutapon inspired animator so I can see why he would mistake it

Nic Lichtner

Pretty sure they mention in an earlier season that the pony girl from Class B is an American transfer student so her Japanese isn't great which is why she has a weird accent, she isn't a native speaker.

Vera

I’m excited for the next few eps tho

Vera

I’m not gonna lie, I totally forgot about the animations in these last two episodes damn

Limini

At least Mirko is still an actual human 😅 I don't think anyone would consider you a furry for liking Mirko in a world where people simp for gang orca

John D. Acebes

I ain't no furry but Judy hopps, lola bunny, and miriko got me reconsidering

Donduh343

+ on both Zootopias

m1gz

Ok some important notes the placement of the movies is such as such 5x12–> second movie, 5x25 -> third movie, 7x4-> fourth movie. (This is the definitive order) As for filler episodes EPISODE 16 IS FILLER now it’s not terrible filler it’s a quick wholesome ep that slightly eludes to the third movie but thats about it nothing of real importance too the plot. if you were to do a triple drop this season I’d maybe put it there or you can skip it I don’t think many people would really care. Now this is REALLY IMPORTANT season 6 and season 7 EPISODES 1s ARE NOT FILLER after 5x16 there are no more filler episodes in my hero, so please remember NOT too skip 6x1 and 7x1 as they are very important eps :))))))

Limini

unicorn?

Niko

Carter nailed it, the cubes are a specific animator named Yutaka Nakamura, and the cubes are an animation classic now, people call them Yutapon Cubes. He did a ton of Work on MHA, but now he kinda just bounces around to different Bones works and sometimes does freelance stuff for other studios. Definitely one of, if not the most, influential Animator in Recent Japanese History!

Bisky

Imagine if AFO took recovery girls quirk and just started kissing all the homies

Takopi (Anime of the Year)

Good call by Cannon. The unicorn girl is basically Walmart hawks.

Alex Ruple

That cube technique is a style called Yutapon cubes meant to make animating action scenes easier, a lot of modern animators use it. Personally I respect that it lightens the workload but I see it sooooo often it does get a little old

Jackson D. Carter

I mean, it was the most jenglish things I’ve ever heard so it was really hard to tell 😂

Tivy

Wait but wouldn’t Movie 4 fit perfectly after Season 6? My memory could be totally off but I can’t see how it would make sense being placed after Season 7 lol

Beeg

How you perceive her english is basically how jp ppl perceive japanese spoken by foreigners LMAO

JevCor

Tell me when Sanji does a prominence burn that blows a hole in the side of a mountain. :p

kai

that iida scene lives in my head rent free the animation was SO GOOD

Sasha (Sanji is the real Flame Emperor)

Why is Jack talking about her own language when it's literally just Japanese with US accent. Or maybe not but some English accent at least sounds like that to me. Well she does include some English lines there too so I guess it's confusing but the own language😂

Sasha (Sanji is the real Flame Emperor)

Crazy how Endeavor has less fire than Sanji when they're both angry

Jenny D

This was a great battle despite it having to be a draw. They all did well. I believe Todoroki said the things hanging off him are filled with first aid supplies.

Izaya

Lol. Pony girls speaks both japanese and english. She is American so she speaks poor Japanese. Bt she speaks english several times here. Its not her own special language lol

Dub_quinn

The animation and story in Mulan, Treasure Planet, and Prince of Egypt classics stay in my brain at all times. Cars is also enjoyable no matter how old you are, so they killed it with that one

Sasha (Sanji is the real Flame Emperor)

Cars is most likely the best cartoon movie I've seen along with Kung Fu Panda and Inside Out. Honorable mention to Mulan which has the best musical bits in any cartoon movie.

Josh Knoebel

I love the random episodes around each movie release when ya boi Yutaka Nakamura gets the call. When hair starts blowing in the wind and the cubes and rainbows come out, you know it's gonna be peak.

Sasha (Sanji is the real Flame Emperor)

Zootopia and Dune reaction when🤔

sleepymiffi

mckay’s utter confusion with the crazy animation iida scene was great😭😭😭

sleepymiffi

S5 GETS SO GOOD ! i really love the rest of this season, i was so emotionally invested in it, I’m especially excited for you guys react to the things they’re going to touch upon, and the characters that are gonna get more fleshed out👀

Zaptozz88

watch zootopia its rly good

Benny

This

Limini

If you liked zootopia, beastars is a good show that handles more the themes more maturely

Kayanolive

Episode 8 was a sakuga fest holyy😭

Vextipher

Ida definitely is a runner and a track star.

Poragami

The horn girl speaks engilsh with a heavy japanese accent and speaks japanese with a english accent, she doesn't speak her own language lmao

Navri

speaking of narnia you guys should watch the otwer 2 movies. They're not as good but still a fun watch

Moon

Here's the obligatory reminder for the watch order! Also, I updated the last movie's position because I thought it might be too jarring to interrupt S7 with the movie. MHA watch order goes (ideally + reasons): Season 5 (Ep 1 to 12) ->Movie 2: Heroes Rising Season 5 (Ep 13 to 25) -> Movie 3: World Heroes' Mission Season 6 -> Season 7 -> Movie 4: You're Next Something to note is that Studio Bones messed up the order of the arcs in the second half of S5. So originally, the last two arcs should have been in the opposite order from what is presented in the anime. Just for you guys to know, movie 2's events are supposed to happen after the last arc in S5 (which was supposed to come before the second arc of S5). And accordingly, movie 3's events are supposed to happen during the second arc of S5 (which was supposed to come after the last arc of S5).

Moon

I keep forgetting how good the third match is despite knowing the general direction and the outcome of it WBJEHBWEB A match with Todoroki and Iida is always going to be something to look forward to, but damn does this fight show how powerful a seemingly simple and not powerful quirk can be. Honenuki being a recommendation student just like Todoroki immediately places him in a slightly higher category than most other students in the hero course. The recommendation students are like early/special admission students who apply because of special circumstances or because they have particular talents that are valuable or powerful. From my understanding, Honenuki is pretty powerful in an actual fight, but in a 1-on-1 fight or individual test, he might be overlooked due to how his quirk needs to be applied to shine. Which is why Todoroki ranked higher than him during their recommendations test (if you rmb, Inasa the wind guy from Shiketsu Academy ranked first, followed by Todoroki, which makes Honenuki and Tokage, the 2 Class B recommendation students, rank below them). Anyway, it's super interesting to see how Class B uses their quirks overall. I loved exploring their new quirks, because they're all so different from what we already know of Class A's quirks. Which is also why I'm crazy excited for the next few episodes. I can't wait for you guys to see Katsuki in action!

kai

endeavor messaging shoto not knowing he’s blocked is hilarious

Lexzc

Monona the goat,pulling the strings 🗣️🔥

Limini

seriously, the punch to the stomach is what always triggers his flashbacks. Enedeavor starts talking about taking shotos opinions more seriously and demands to text him back while shoto is thinking about how endeavor burned and punched him until he puked at 5 years old...

toshio heng

waiting a week for these episodes were still a slog

Limini

What Pony is saying to Tentacole is kinda crazy in hindsight.

Marcus D

All the class B people you’re seeing in this arc were all shown during the sports festival arc in season 2. I was surprised when I was rewatching it with you guys but they were all planned from the start.

jblakk

As a former hater of this arc I'll say something. I read the manga, I did not watch the anime at this point. The anime makes this a lot more fun. The music and animation helps. But waiting a week for 15 page chapters was a slog.

Studio gek Podcast please

YANXI

him constantly ragebaiting class 1-A always gets a good chuckle out of me

cozo

i cant wait for s6 were finally almost there... peak is coming

Gestrid

She speaks English in the English dub. It's incredibly difficult to localize something like that, but I think she actually uses more English slang in the parts where the Japanese VA had to speak English. Example: When Tetsutetsu is smashing stuff, she says, "Oh, geez, you're gonna goddamn blow it for us, metalhead!" To which the other guy says: "You hear what you're making Pony sound like? Is this what you want?" As another quick example, when she gets burned by Todoroki's flames, she says, "Ouchies!" instead of just "Ouch!" like the Japanese VA said.

Cannon Andrus

My elbow has been cooked for over a year now :(

stako

Horikoshi remembered Iida existed 🔥🔥

imgd

they are going to watch it before s2 drops

Meel

Hey loving this but is there a reason you guys havent watched Frieren yet? Its the #1 ranked anime of all time by FAR, and only a few seasons of shows have even touched #1 briefly, being Attack on Titan, and FMAB for the last 15 years up until when Frieren released 2 years ago. Id be surprised if you guys have yet to hear of it

Marcus D

She was speaking English, the voice actress just has a very heavy accent, I had to concentrate to understand it lol.

Marcus D

Although he does also voice Gunhead(Uraraka’s work experience hero)

Marcus D

McKay, Tetsu Tetsu’s VA isn’t in anything else you’ve watch besides a random assistant in solo levelling. He does sound like Gilgamesh though so I don’t blame you finding it familiar.

Enma

Surprised no one mentioned that the key animator of the Iida scenes, Yutaka Nakamura, also was a key animator for the Saitama vs Boros fight.

suzuki

I just love Monoma, his character is so villain coded but I'm glad he's on heroes side😭😂

Vernus

That’s Pony’s gimmick. She’s from America so she speaks half Japanese half English. She sounds weird because that’s the actual Japanese voice actress trying to say the whole sentence in English. I don’t know if they do the opposite for the dub but you can imagine how odd it would be for a English speaking person to try to speak Japanese

Trandon

I believe they already watched it on their own

Swish Mix Productions

Movie NEXT MONDAY WOO

Swish Mix Productions

*Until the end of the show

Yam

Wth i didn't remember that animation scene of lida that was amazing

Swish Mix Productions

If u liked it so far, u are in for peak from here until the end of the show

mina D. one piece glazer

iida animation always cooks 🥹

Chance Henderson

Fantastic as always. CYBERPUNK EDGERUNNERS NEXT!

Vernus

Cannon, what happened to your elbow? ;(

botanbutton

Really unfortunate they couldn't get a Japanese VA fluent in English or another VA for the English. 😅

Trandon

Studio bones animators must be Iida fans😭

Mitch

This was def one of my most hyped eps of the season, they cooked so hard for ida and finally gave todoroki another peak moment after so long.

IQLou

Great reaction Geks! The animation did go crazy here lol. I think Shoto was about to do Enji's "Flashfire Fist" before Mudman sunk him. I'm pumped for the next batch!

Vernus

Watch zootopia!

JevCor

Fun one, would be different from most other shows, really heavy on the fan service though.

Creed ⟢

These first few batches of episodes were a blur when I first watched them but great character development nonetheless. It’s a roller coaster from here on out.

Yoshified

Which episode????

JevCor

Yes, I also hate character development, so lame.

mellie

next batch of eps gonna be crazy

JevCor

Honestly from these two episodes on S5 cooks, a little too many flashbacks but other than that the plot is great.

Dontsop Keran

Off topic but Yall should watch gurren Lagann

Vincent S Deluca

Those Cubes you were talking about are Yutapon Cubes. It’s not a single animator that uses the technique, many have adopted it. It did originate from a specific artist/animator though, Yutaka Nakamora who does work on A LOT of the high profile fights you see and really brought it into the limelight. He may have been the one who did it in this ep I’m not sure He’s pretty much the reason you see cubes and know the animation is about to cook

Vincent S Deluca

Next few eps cook so hard

Frizen

The animator you're talking about is Yutaka Nakamura. However since he is the GOAT and so influential just seeing blocky debris isn't enough to identify him as so many animators do it now. He did do the IIda scene this ep but did not work on the Mahoraga fight or has ever worked on a Mappa production.

JevCor

Iida going absolutely crazy

rue

lmao love monoma

Sam Davis

& Shoto with the Fire move sounded like a jet or something powering up but Tetsutetsu held his own through out that fight Class B shouldn't be underestimated

Sam Davis

Seeing Tenya being the absolute powerhouse he is makes me happy

Sam Davis

Next eps are 🔥🔥

Sanji

Wow

Kyle

damn that was way better than I remember

Yutaka Nakamura fan

I just learned he also worked on mob psycho and one punch man

Alex Ramirez

Pony is from America. She speaks Japanese with an accent/she speaks like a beginner speaker. Unfortunately, her voice actress doesn't speak fluent English so her English is broken too lmao.

katsuki’s wife

Geks, there are spoilers below, don’t scroll through the comments yet! I honestly don’t even know what to call these selfish people who just drop spoilers without thinking for a second. Be considerate, seriously!

humbleandkindness

we're so close to one of my favorite episodes of the season,, imagine me rubbing my hands together and laughing evilly but quietly, that's how I feel rn

Tivy

I see the vision

1999

Imagine Carter dressed as Mineta for Halloween

cara

the cubes will forever be the only way i can ever identify any specific animator lol. for sure underappreciated shoto and iida moments in these episodes woww. i’m so excited for the next drop 🙏

Jasmin☆

NEED THAT ZOOTOPIA REACTION

Dub_quinn

I spy Lemillion 👀🌟

Jackson D. Carter

This season has been good so far, had some great character moments!

Jackson D. Carter

So down

Kevin

I agree with you, as much as I love Soto he is not very well versed in up close fighting f rom what we have seen. He needs to go train with Tailman!

Neptunestar79

AS I SAID LAST TIME INFINITE PEAK IS ABOUT TO BEGIN NEXT EP!! ALSO ZOOTOPIA IS SUCH A GOOD MOVIE AND FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT HAVE WATCHED WORLD HEROES MISSION, I DONT KNOW MAN IT JUST GIVES ALL ZOOTOPIA VIBES ESPECIALLY RODY

Jackson D. Carter

Iida cooked!

cara

would actually go so hard

Kinx

The only thing that bugs me about Shoto, is that he hasn’t thrown a single punch or kick, since the show started. He relies too much on his powerful quirk, that if his quirk is not effective in battle, his hand to hand weaknesses start to appear. I know that a punch or kick won’t do anything to Tetsutetsu, but I’m talking about every person Shoto has ever fought. For example, his fight against Deku in the Sports Festival. Like even Shinso thew a punch at Deku, and his quirk isn’t even for fighting…

Dub_quinn

Nice to see some growth in our heroes, and excited to see Bakugo next!

Tivy

Nooo 😭

Ayoodude

Love Zootopia it’s fire

McKay Carter

Zootopia reaction?

McKay Carter

Tell em

McKay Carter

Spoiler…

Kevin

Did they change the drop day to Friday instead of Saturday?!

Dub_quinn

Spoiler!

Tivy

GEKS don’t read any comments past this one, someone said a spoiler and hasn’t deleted it 🙏‼️

Mdmarki

Bro delete the comment, it's a fucking spoiler

Belly

me too

Annie

Yess Watch zootopia 🙌

86 LilaS

Never noticed the first time around, but it’s sad how Shoto can take all these punches and still stand because he was use to it from his childhood. First with Deku in the sports festival and now this. In the end, it takes part of a building to knock him out.

jrnoodles

Thanks Geks! It was a lot of animation for the most useless fight lol

Gobbo

Watching 1 episode a week was extremely slow and the gentle criminal arc was also pretty slow

Kenny Rivera

i dont get why people hate on this season bro

Spideycain

Lmao yes they were speaking English but they accent was strong that it still sounded like they were still speaking Japanese

Nashi

Is it only for me that the anime video drops in quality a bit randomly? Like the guys are still in 1080p, even the subtitles but the anime video feels like less than 720p or something

Miguel

The next fight is pretty sick

Lori

I’m a huge fan of everything from here onwards to the rest of the season, but the second half of this season can be contentious depending on where you stand on the villains lol

Yutaka Nakamura fan

Those crazy shots of Lida were done by Yutaka Nakamura, whos also done most of the crazy shots like the end of Deku vs Shoto, that shot of bakugo flying in season 3, Deku vs Bakugo, the crazy shot of Deku vs Overhaul, and the shot of endeavor spinning and destroying the building. He also did the end of the first movie and does crazy work on all of the movies. The sukuna vs mahoraga parts you were thinking of were done by Vincent chansard, who is also crazy. The cubes breaking are called yutapon cubes, named after him and its kinda his staple.

Nasty

Yea there is gonna be alot of explosions at the very least.

QuirklessEsty

Goddamn I forget how great that battle was in EP 8. I think it's because I just love the next few episodes so much. Looking forward to peak on Wednesday!

Tivy

43:42 - Sooo true. It’s hard to explain but you know the fighting and animation is about to COOK when they have those cubed explosions. It’s a specific guy who always animates these scenes.

Zenitsu

🙌

ExiledRevan

Yutaka Nakamura cooking with those cubes!

cozo

why did ep 8 just start with the craziest animation ever for iida wth 😭

Tivy

Wait why have I been sleeping on these episodes hello

Seth Aasland

Studio Gek Zootopia reaction when??!!

Mdmarki

NEXT EPISODE WILL BE FIRE AF

cara

zootopia is goated

CastSenpai

I’m pretty sure mineta’s character design, specifically his lower half, is of a grape bowl. His whole hero thing is grape related (Grape Juice, Grape rush). Took me many rewatches before I realized it wasn’t a daiper.

Etheriell

So the thing with Pony is that canonically, she's supposed to be from the US because she's a transfer student. And she doesn't speak good Japanese. But, because the show uses Japanese VA's, her VA isn't an expert in English and has a pretty distinct accent. That's why she sounds so off-putting, she's trying to speak English but it's not her expertise. So she sounds a lot more pitchier than it's expected. But it's the same thing that happens when some English-speaking VA tries to speak in another language, their accent often very off-putting to native speakers. And I imagine they didn't think it was worth trying to find somebody who was an expert in both Japanese and English for a character who gets like 5 minutes of screen time. Funny note about Pont the character though, in some of the side content, it's explained that she's not great at Japanese and Monoma tends to teach her... But he goes out of his way to teach her like insulting things to be said against 1A, without her being aware of it.
