Anime is an odd medium watched by odd people. Millions of people enjoy watching anime. Just as many are willing to say "This show is trash!" To a normal person, this statement would create the impression that they dislike the show and elect not to watch it. But in all actuality, the anime fan making… Continue reading What is Anime ‘Trash’?
This episode is cathartic as hell! After roughly thirty-two episodes, we finally see our boy Deku rise up and surpass most of his classmates! Shame that the moment is so short lived.

While this episode does have some good world building and character moments, it is entirely an episode for cooling off. We just got through a major plot point; now, we need… Continue reading My Review Academia S2 E18: The Goodest Boy
