has anyone realized that the repulsion quirk (the one AFO is using to fly with the rings by his feet) is Shigaraki's original quirk before AFO took it and replaced it with decay Makes it even more clear since The 7th user has a float quirk

I subscribed on patreon just cause I didn't want to trickle through seasons 6 and 7 while you're dropping episodes for 8. I told you I started following cause of your love for Zenitsu in Demon Slayer. He's my favorite character there, and Bakugo here. Is Bakugo your favorite here?

hoobity

Bruuuhhhh flexie being overwhelmed made even more anxious and hyped 😂

Isaiah L

I love the enthusiasm! Haha

Mauricio Melendez

"I'll probably break him, and he was just fixed"....awww that was just so sweet..much love flexie, love watching the show with you!

Maugrim

such a bad take

Cory Noyes

I didn’t think about this when I watched it but Bakugo just told the world “I AM HERE”

Hellguin

The thing with starting Episode 1 with a "recap" was helpful because I hadn't seen ANYTHING for a year, I didnt even REGISTER it as a recap until I just now watched your ep 21 reaction. and it then let them have a full uninterrupted fight.

Maxxy

Bakugos hero name never made sense to me.. Victory hero: Dynamight is much more fitting for what he represents, especially to deku

Lance Tetreault

Hehehe ur manifestation came true XD also lol so much of what u said before the episode was on the nose for what happened in the episode that I was just giggling throughout it, knowing what u were about to watch. ALSO AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! THE MOMENT!!!!! FINALLY ANIMATEDDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!! AND ITS EVEN BETTER THAN I EVER THOUGHT IT WOULD BEEEEEEEE!!!!! THE MUSIC!!!! THE ZOOM IN, THE BLUR OF THE CAMERA AND THEN THE QUALITY SHARPENING AS IT REFOCUSES. THE GLOWING OF THE SPARKS AND THE GLOWING OF THE TEARS!!! THE SHOTS THEMSELVES/THE LINEART/ANIMATION!!!!! UGH S8 IS SO PRETTYYYYYYYYYYY. THE DIRECTOR OF THIS SEASON AND THE ANIMATORS POPPED OFF SO HARD OMG. Also wow. Bakugo having his hand in his pocket touching that card so much just 😭 excuse me what the fuck that's heartbreaking. anyways haha fun fact, the manga readers waited like a year to get confirmation that bakugo wasn't permanently dead! It was a wild wild time. I remember the fandom collectively losing their shit when bakugo came back (counting the days of how long bakugo had been dead had become kind of a thing in the fandom too lmao)--and with such gorgeous manga panels. BUT THEY EXTENDED THE SCENE HERE!!!! ITS SO COOL!!! I LOVE THE SCENE EXTENSIONS THAT THEYVE ADDED IN S8!!! 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 loving ur s8 reactions, see ya next week!!

Six Paths Sage

Why i enjoy your reactions not just for the emotions and such but because every once in a while you'll just recall something and tug at that string like no other reactor i've seen. Right or wrong it brings some great thought exercises into the show. One tidbit i love is that when AFO talks of his "Golden Era" the visual we are given is one of the 5th OFA user, Diagoro Banjo, showing that even at the height of the chaos and evil running rampant there was still the embers of good fighting back with what they could.

Can I know who the fk is Azwa that you mentioned in 4:39 ? Never heard of him

Alex Hencher

All Might really did live one hell of an incredible life. What a cool person/character. The suffering that poor man has endured is heart wrenching, and yet he never lets it get to him. Just smiles and moves on with helping people.

Alex Hencher

I completely agree with you. It feels weird that, if the movies really are canon, that no one ever brings that up. Bakugo definitely should have been affected by the failed transfer. Plus it was such a cool plot point.

Jacob Z Mulan

I was going to read the manga to see what happens next but the animation is pretty peak so I'll wait weekly with yall.

KevinsLunchbox

Episode ended and the video still has 20 minutes to go. Oh yeah. We're FlexiejayAnime'ing today boys and girls.

Thomas Roark

this episode was freaking insane. dont even have words for the range of emotions I experienced. cant wait for the rest of the season

Fabrício Reis

all the lights in all might's path are his students and all the other ppl in his life <3

Fabrício Reis

My theory is that the vestige of All Might that Bakugo sees before he dies is an after effect of the failed one for all transfer back in the Heroes Rising movie. Which may have had an effect on him and helped him get his quirk awakening first when he got impaled defending Deku back in season 6 and then before his 'death' in season 7 when he tried to blow up shiggy. This glow is, in my opinion, his awakened quirk.

Jessica McCann

**SOBS** AAH!

Jessica McCann

Hahaha I mean they handled this at the start of the season and not half way through or somethin lol We are in episode 2!!!

Jessica McCann

Please check the schedule :)

Artychupka

WHEN I TELL YOU I COULDN'T STOP CRYING I MEAN IT. IV'E WAITED SOO LONG TO SEE THIS GET ANIMATED. Just so peak we all feeling just like you W FLEXIE AND W CHATTTT!! STAYING UP ALL HOURS OF THE NIGHT IS WORTH NUFF SAID!

Lucas Hubbard

So, I think the moment from the 2nd movie could be a factor, yes. But the full reason Bakugo is back is because of Edgeshot and some other things that'll be explained next episode!

Lucas Hubbard

The light from Deku and Bakugo's All Might cards as kids feeding into Bakugo's in the present is a metaphor for their feelings becoming one. Because it's the end of All Might's era, but the beginning of Deku, Bakugo, and the rest of 1-A, etc's era!

Mel - Sërënä

Omg... we reacted both the same way!!! 😱😭😱😭😱... I was bawling my eyes out and hysterically laughing because HE'S BACK!!! 😭❤️🤩💥 And yes!!! The card!!! It's his treasure!!! ❤️😭 I ask myself the same thing about AFO glowing, if he's the "glowing baby"!!!? 😱🤔🤯😨

Lucas Hubbard

"This episode looks good" yah all of season seven and this final season have so far lol

Lucas Hubbard

The light coming to Bakugo's All Might card is I think to show All Might's legacy and its impact

Indigo

They made us wait over a year what do you mean didn’t make us wait long 😭!?

andrzej lll

where is season 7 episode 19 - 20 - 21? i dont see,

IGoBySparky

this episode also had me in tears

Varuna

GREAT EXPLOSION MURDER GOD DYNAMITE IS BACK IN ACTION BABBYYYYY

moy.

episode 2 btw, EPISODE 2, are we going to survive this season??? your reaction was so very real, could not function normally the whole day

ZeroG

I feel you SO much on that Bakugo moment, for us who've been keeping up with the anime, we had to wait a whole year for this Final Season to come out, so we were left in purgatory for quite a bit lol. Such an amazing episode, it really feels like its only going to go up from here! The staff who've been working on this series for nearly 10 years at this point are showing ALL their love they've had for it over the years for this Finale. Bless Horikoshi, bless the animators, and bless this absolutely wonderful series!

THE GOAT IS BACK

Hvwkx

this is where watching the previous season so recently kinda sucks lol because she didn't have to wait the entire year+ to see him haha great reaction though. Also, yes Bakugo has that card on him AT ALL times. pretty sure it's mentioned somewhere earlier in the series. Horikoshi confirmed the movies were canon. especially since you have movie characters (Melissa in particular) showing up

James Bell

Bakugo can't stop twinkling.

Kenny

Flexy: “What am I looking at?” Me: My goat rising from the ashes

KyleForged

I mean Im also a manga reader and I think it could work/fits that Bakugo could have the embers of OFA in him even if its not enough to affect him in any real way. Imo you cant say "The movies have no impact whatsoever on the series" and then be like (But ignore the parts of the story that are). If Melissa and Star and Stripes are from the movies and have an impact on the story theres no reason Bakugo couldnt of had a connection to All Might through OFA when he said goodbye in S7.

Manic Lalo

watched the reaction immediately after I did. That ending...

rain_y01

The shirt for this episode was so perfect <3

leon5801

Absolutely amazing episode

Naughty Boruto

Can't wait to have these banger visuals at the end to be turned into AMV's blasting Linkin Park. Bakugo at the end with his eyes with 'Lost' blaring in the back.

MSJ

I've been waiting for this moment! Let's go Kacchan!!! Shout out to Yuki Hayashi for that beautiful ost at the end

ttyleddy

Damn near screamed on the top of my lungs and jumped when I saw Bakugo man, ts is so fucking peak man 😭😭😭

William Roberts

not only has our boy returned, but the man who "ended All Might" has a chance at redemption to become the man who "saved All Might"

sliggooo

i cried the entire episode All Might means so much to me 😭

Son of Grep

Those end shots of Bakugo and Deku were animated so beautifully

Zarrowk

To answer your "what is that" for the light coming down to Bakugo's All Might card, for me (but everyone can find his own meaning) it's just to show the legacy of All Might. You see All Might on his path, leaving some golden lights, Bakugo and Deku get one each, being All Might cards, but representing mostly their admiration for him, their love for him, and their desire to become like him (and even stronger). That's why All Might is seeing them running on their path with that light with them, and then the transition with the light rising and ending on the card that Bakugo is still holding is to show that it's what make him how he is, what fuel him to improve, and it's just like a response to everyone that is helpless to save All Might, Bakugo's here, he ran his path with All Might lights and now he has to save him. And the look Deku and him are sharing, this scene is awesome. One thing about what you say, the movie being canon and Bakugo having like an ashes of OFA, I can't agree with it cause it would make no sense for manga readers (I'm one). The movie are cannon in a way that some character are shown afterwards but the main things of these movies is they have no influence on the story line of the show (except for the american girl) and there were never any mention of Bakugo having OFA for a short time, so it would make no sense to add it now. I prefer to think that the show stays in the line of the message it's saying since the start : All Might was here to save everyone, with a smile, and to be a model for everyone. So it make more sense to see it as All Might's legacy echoing through Bakugo, than ashes of OFA from the movie. And for last, hearing you talk about all the details and the golden baby, it's nice to see you remember those stuff right now. Won't tell you anything about the details, but be sure you'll get answers that will clear your idea of the timeline.

OUR BOY!!!

Kenneth Ahluk

Of course All Might was inspired by Anpanman 😭😭😭

Maya Coleman
