I could care less about them not making the national team, not all of them could've made it anyway due to the limited number of players allowed. The thing with the ego just made me cringe, especially because football is a team game anyway and they have to work together with the other players to win a match. It's why I don't call it a sports anime (neither did its author), it's a cringe battle/survival shounen.

    I think that the more 'cartoonish-style' (as the boys called it) worked in favor of My hero Academia in the first season. Because it was so over the top that it kind of felt like a parody of western comic books. But this style got toned down as the story got darker and somehow the show never got the tonal shift right. It just feels stuck between a cartoonish comedy (which could work if done right) and these dark stories that get hold back by the inconsistent tone. I feel like Horikoshi (author of MHA) wanted to combine too many things together and it just didn't work as intended.
    (Btw I'm aware that this comment will most likely get lost and never seen by anybody but I just had to let my opinion out as I was a MHA fan back in it's peak and often think about this topic.)

I know they didnt have that much material to begin with but not going the movie route and making the season 3 was artistically a better choice. I understand connor is about the pee pee poo poo gamer brain fast action and prefers things getting done quick but imho mob psycho works better in slow pace.

      If you're expecting the typical ecchi or shonen it might not be for you. But if you like an actually interesting rom com then Kaguya is a great show in comparison to other romcoms. Just don't expect it to be what you want it to be because this show likes to challenge tropes.

    So many good anime brought up in this episode that never gets talked about, Golden Boy got me jumping in my seat, it’s such a great show that no one ever talks about because of the perverted aspects but the aspect of the unlimited potential for Kentaro to learn and become the best at anything he’s interested in just because he can and then moving on to the next thing is such a great dynamic and I know that’s a semi common trope in anime but you really get the feeling that he’s an idiot but that he genuinely puts in the effort and really cares about whatever he does. Just gushing at this point but this really opened my eyes to how much effort went into anime from the 80s 90s and 00s, especially with the last episode going into how they actually made anime in those days. So good
    Edit: Not sure if it’s been talked about before on the podcast but since Golden Boy was brought up, I recommend Great Teacher Onizuka, brilliant for a lot of the same reasons as Golden Boy, with the perv meter turned down a bit. Another old anime known for the reaction faces and clips but something I forgot about until rewatching it recently was the soundtrack, it’s simple and repeats itself but you never really get tired of hearing it

    The Gentle arc in MHA was amazing, up to that point all villains were just "evil just for evils sake", gentle was the first one to show the "dark side" of hero society, how someone that has all the intentions to do good can get screwed over just by having bad luck, you know how they always mention that every hero has that "i moved before i even realized it" moment where they save someone they get a pat in the back and start their hero career? well gentle had that moment, but his bad luck got him into jail and he was pretty much forced to become a villain after that since society didnt allow him to follow his dream. Lets not forget La Brava, she has literally the power of love, thats some main protagonist quirk, normally that powers always wins but here it got pited against another big hitter the power of friendship, that fight was hype AF, i understand why Connor couldnt get it, but im dissapointed Joey and Garnt couldnt get the not so subtle symbolism.

    @alexinator-hh5fe Před rokem +11

    I personally don't agree with any of the My Hero takes. Gentle was not a filler arc. It was a low stakes arc. The objective of that arc was to make a traumatized child feel good and free her from the mental clutches of the guy who ruined her life. To make Eri smile. Having an Overhaul or Shigaraki style villain wouldn't have worked in that arc because the idea of said arc was to have a wholesome conclusion and make a child smile. Even then Gentle's arc still had moments of darkness because we learn that his attempt to save someone ended with them dying. With everyone telling him that he couldn't be a hero. Which gives him parallels to Deku because everyone, even All Might(at first), told him that he couldn't be a hero and that he should be realistic. Gentle is who Izuku could've been if he'd given up. Just because an arc doesn't have a ton of action at all times doesn't make it filler.
    In regards to Bakugo, I could understand if you were in early S1 or 2 and thought he might've been a person with questionable morals, but it's made very clear in S3 that he's not going to be a villain and it culminates in him venting to Deku and them becoming proper rivals. He isn't a bad person, much less a bad character. In fact, I find it ironic that Connor loves Endeavor so much but hates Bakugo when they pretty much have the same character arc. Although, Bakugo is on a much lesser scale because Endeavor did way worse than him, but still.

      His complaints about blue lock not being a matter of life and death was huge L, because for atheletes playing for their country is the end goal, it is a matter of life and death, people do dope in olympics just so that can get gold medal even if it cost them a significant portion of their lives. so yeah I enjoy the podcast but I think it's best they dont discuss anime because their takes are not that good frankly but still I enjoy seeing them

    I love hearing all their thoughts about mob psycho 100! Sad that joey hasn't caught up to it, so garnt and connor had to hold back a bit. Season 2 is absolutely amazing, but season 3 has a special place in my heart. It truly is a season long epilogue, and I enjoyed every second of it. Also, hard agree on playing the opening during the finale's climax! And the message of the song thematically matches with what was happening in the scene too!

    This is the first time I hear people saying that Mob Psycho S3 was "unnecessary", an "epilogue" or "bogged down"/"padded out".
    S2 has a ton of spectacle, but if S3 makes one thing clear then it's that almost none of the plot threads were resolved by the end of S2. Neither Reigen's, nor Tome's, nor Dimple's not even the thread of S2's climax was resolved and most importantly: Not Shigeo's.
    And the third season takes enough time to resolve all of that in a well produced, well-paced way.
    Edit: Also "Please ignore the pedophilia and the incest with No Game, No Life" but then they agree Mushoku Tensei is good, even though it turns into garbage everytime it turns into a cringey "Not-Hentai" and literally has the 40+yo protagonist in the body of a 13yo bang his 15yo cousin and boasts about it one minute after it happened.
    Take that garbage out and its a solid 8/10. With the garbage it's a disgusting 3/10.

Fuck it!", and they made the main couple official by the end of fucking episode 1. No "will they won't they" shenanigans. Episode 1 ends with the main characters confessing and agreeing to date and the rest of the story is about them as a couple.

      It doesn't help that we are so spot on that couple. The only difference is that I'm more laid back and open about being a weeb, and he keeps it more under wraps. Like on the weeb side of it it's cathartic in how relatable it is. In the relationship side it's just a reminder to be more considerate of each other and communicate more. Again I think more people would remember it and be more attached if there was some more relationship progression and if it was longer.

      I mean you don't really go to Connor for nuanced intelligent takes. And I don't say that as an insult, this isn't a series that was ever going to appeal to him. So bad takes are expected. I was more surprised by Garnt saying things that were dark on paper weren't in motion. Without spoiling, I don't see many other shows, anime or otherwise, willing to show a particular breed of violence. Even doing it off screen is often too much for many viewers and MHA had the balls to do it without looking away. The only way that shit doesn't land is because you don't want it to.
      MHA is far from flawless but boy howdy do people give it an overly hard time. While simultaneously propping up alternatives that are equally flawed, if not worse. Bleach is a quick read because it's mostly vapid content, there isn't much to take in so you can blast right through it. Fun. But not remotely similar outside of genre. You know a series that has no danger to it? One piece. Is it still a great series? Absolutely.

    Concerning Re Zero S3, I think the reason it hasn't been released or announced is that most of the White Fox animators left to do Mushoku Tensei. And S3/Arc 5 contains much more action than the earlier Arcs so they need a good team to do it well. But they have some kind of announcement coming (late March IIRC) so hopefully that will be for a new season.
    As for never ending, Tappei is currently writing the last parts of Arc 7... of around 11 planned Arcs. So yes it will be a long one.

      IMO, the reason season 3 isn't coming out anytime soon is probably because it's primarily a promotion of the source material. And it kinda makes sense that pace is optimal for the purpose both keeping interest of hardcore fans and interesting new audience for years to come.
      Imagine if they hastily released like 4 or more seasons, but there is no more original source to adapt. It leaves awkward silence for like 3 years until the whole series is finished. There is no reason for most anime-only watchers to read light novel, since they already experienced most of the story, and most will not be bothered to read remaining books, i.e. it is hard to transition from watching animated series to reading it.
      If you think about this way, it all comes together (at least, in my head).
