    My Review Academia S5 E7: Round 3 and the Weak Start

    This wasn’t all that compelling an episode, to be honest. It doesn’t look great and it makes a lot of bad decisions that ruin the pacing. It had its moments, but overall it just wasn’t that exciting. Plot-wise, there isn’t much to discuss. After the second match, the students move to a new battlefield that…

    Season one was a rollercoaster. Season two was a compelling mystery. The first half of season three was a political thriller. Each one had their own strengths and improved upon the last. The second half of season three doesn’t do this. Because it does all three at once. After Historia takes the throne, the Survey…
