All Might became so American that he Nuked Japan

Just remember this is both All for One and All Might in a weakened state

All Might using Deku’s “destroy my arm” strategy to get the edge on AFO is so freaking fantastic

Endeavor's emotion hit me the hardest. Because to him, he gave up EVERYTHING... his morals and the trust and love of his family. And seeing All Might depowered like that made him feel like all the shit he did, was for nothing.

Everyone who reacts to this episode forgets that they had to take the bullet train to another city to get to the villain hideout. No one at UA can get there. Yelling at Aizawa (who was specifically left behind to trick the villains by appearing on TV) because he can't make it to the Kamino Ward in Tokyo from whatever suburb UA is built in is unfair.

Fun fact: Nana is the 7th holder of One for All. Nana is the Japanese word for seven.

If one state isn’t enough, throw the whole country in there. *United States of Smash*

“Now it’s your turn” is the only line in this show that’s brought me to the verge of tears. It replaced “you too can become a hero” as my favorite scene thus far.

The music leading up to the United States of Smash, as the power is shooting from holder to holder, really makes the whole thing easily one of the most epic moments in anime.

The "I didn't put my back into it that time" and the "United States of Smash" were so goddamn amazing!!! I love Chris Sabat. What an amazing job he did!

At least you guys heard United States. Blind wave was already yelling and completely missed it.

I thought the emotions wouldn’t come but I got choked up again watching this. Damn this show is awesome.

I would absolutely love if they made just an entire movie about the History of One For All that shows us an abridged journey of the quirk and all of its successors, starting with the younger brother and ending with All Might. I just personally feel there’s so much potential there.

Marketa going through the 7 stages of grief was actually me after this episode.

Delaware or Oklahoma? Nah, he’s bringing all 50 states

9:21 - It hurts the most. When villains make sense.

All for One is voiced by John Swasey, whom you might recognize as Hohenheim's voice actor from FMA:B

"Creator?" Yes Rana. All For One unintentionally made One For All. It was explained in season 2 episode 20.

Ever since Ep 14. "I'm gonna *Do My Best!* " "Midoriya, I'll *Do My Best* to defeat you." "All I want to hear from you is that you'll *Do Your Best!* " "Todoroki! Don't give up! *Do Your Best!* " "I know you didn't ask for any of this but-" *"I'll Do My Best!"* "You *Did Your Best* , Mt. Lady." And now... " *Do Your Best* , Toshinori."

Came for Rana's reaction. Stayed for Marketa's understated grief at 13:15 onward. Never seen her like that.

yall yellin at the other heroes to go....there is literally nothing any of them can do lol the power difference is too huge

The "UNITED STATES OF SMASH" part is something I can never get enough of!

I think it's really moving how All Might's final move as the Symbol of Peace is something inspired by his successor. Since gaining his power from All Might, Midoriya has been learning from him how to use and control his power, and how to become a good hero. Since obtaining his power, Midoriya has finally learned something that came naturally to All Might: how to use his power across his whole body, rather than focusing it all in one location. And now, in the final moment of All Might's time as the Symbol of Peace, he uses what Midoriya originally used (but which wasn't natural to him) in order to best All for One: placing all of his power in one location rather than across his whole body. In this sense, it symbolizes that although he was the teacher, he has now learned from his successor, and I believe it represents the passing of the torch from one Symbol to the next. I love this moment, because even if it's not as poetic as I think it is, it still feels satisfying, like some sort of closure in the passing of power from All Might to Deku. In his final act as the Symbol of Peace, All Might uses something he learned from Deku, the next Symbol of Peace.

"Remove his head from his body and put them in different oceans" 😂😂😂

“PUT HIM IN THE FUCKING CORE!!!” One of the best reactions to that move I’ve ever heard!

Mickey was so stressed out lmao. xD Cant blame him

I see this episode completely differently after season 4 episode 4.

its crazy how my hero has such a realistic world despite almost everyone having super powers

12:08 When the OST started in sync with the United States of Smash it was over for me and everyone else watching. Music is such a key factor in making the best scenes turn out so well in any anime.

It is really annoying having them yell for the other heroes to help.. it shows they really didnt realize the gap allmight had over everyone..

Rana: Yo All-Might hit him back though! AllForOne: Impact Recoil... Rana: Oh fuckoff!

and this is my favorite trope reconstruction in this series. The Tomura-Shimura thing. Because in many media the heroes, who already met someone as heroes keep it secret or leave the person without explanation to protect them bc distance=safety. Because I guess villain will not go after the loved one, bc the hero is not visiting them? But like being away doesn't mean you DON'T CARE. and bad guys go after loved ones not because they're physically close but because of emotional impact. A clever villain would/could easily see that the hero leaves because he cares and would attack then. For even greater emotional impact. Because here the hero is smug and proud they're sacrificing themselves and protecting their loved ones. But then loved ones get attacked regardless( and due to being defenseless and since heroes in stories often don't give the real reason for leaving also don't know what to look out for) and all of it is in vain. Hero did so much and it was pointless. That's guaranteed to destroy them. And this is what AFO did. He targetted Nana's direct grandson, even tho AM never met him(bc protection) and turned him into a villain and weapon against AM. It's angsty AF but SUCH A GOOD DECONSTRUCTION. I love Horikoshi for this stuff.

I always took the “now it’s your turn” line as All Might talking directly to Deku, telling him that he now has to take over as the next symbol of peace.

10:06 "But you were there, kiddo."

Mickey didn't drop the remote this time YESSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Since the first episode I have been waiting for this episode. And especially 12:00.

i always get choked up and teary eyed every time I hear "Now its your turn" XD

“Throw that dude in a volcano “ lol he don’t want no BS

"He looks like a skeleton" *Megalovania plays in the distance*

My dad: why the hell are you crying so loud!? Me: Good bye One For All

Rana says “GO” like people can just teleport lmao, police irl can’t just show up in NY if they see something happening even in Long Island or some shit, traffic would be cheeks, people panicking etc

How fitting that in MHA Nana Shimura and All Might are Teacher-Student, while in another anime (FMA), they’re Elder Sister-Youngest Brother

The roughest thing for All Might letting go of One for All is that not only was it everything that made him a pillar of justice, but it was the last piece of Nana Shimura he felt connected to. But as he said, there is nothing more heroic than self-sacrifice

I see a lot of people missing the symbology that’s in Eastern Media because they aren’t quite as “Spell it out for me” moments: AllMight sacrificed his arm BECAUSE he saw Deku do similar strategies with Todoroki. Meaning he’s learning from his student as much as he’s teaching him. This is a large tenet to two societal structures that Horikoshi reveres: the American Soldier and the Japanese Samurai. They are the most “You learn from teaching” theorists in human history.

To anyone who watched this episode the first time: did you think that All Might would die after he defeated All for One, cause I did at first.

I guess I'll be the one to appreciate Marketa's silent admiration for All Might. Such an amazing character and sometimes words don't need to be said.

"GO!!" ... What made you think they are in the same city? Its literary a train ride away.

get up and show them why youre better. i love this moment so much. exactly like a vegeta moment

I read the manga long before this came out but I literally can’t watch this or the muscular fight without my breath hitching in my throat and tears welling up in my eyes

The first time I watched this episode I was an absolute emotional wreck, just sobbing. I was genuinely scared that Dad Might was gonna die

this episode always makes me emotional, and the first few times i watched it + now after season 4 started, i cried a ton

United States of Smash is easily in the top five best moments in anime.

You think Bakugo ever gets swamp ass and destroys chairs accidentally?

ITS FINALLY HERE. BRB watching the reaction

its been a while since i last watch this episode and i started chocking up with the emotions

The music when he says United States of Smash makes me tear up every time bro. Wow. All Might is the greatest ever!

This has been the episode I've been waiting for y'all to react to since y'all started watching the series. My personal favorite fight in the show and United States of Smash is my personal favorite scene. The animation, the score, my sense of patriotism; all boils over.

I haven't seen Mickey so visibly shooketh in a while lol

10:05 The anime voice actor who voices All For One is John Swasey, who also voices Van Hohenheim from Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Lord Death from Soul Eater, the Undertaker from Black Butler and Zara Ideale from Black Clover. :)

Everytime I watch this episode, I always try to hold back my tears. Can't help it.

Its pretty obvious, but I love the detail that Nana and All Might have the same colors in their uniforms. Especially the yellow gloves! 💛

i've seen grown adults crying to this episode and I cried the first time...Naruto, Ichigo and Luffy would be pride because it's definitely in the top 3 of current animes

I keep coming back to watch your reaction. Simply because I love your videos and the episode is so good and I enjoy just watching people react to stuff 😂

I waited soooo loooong for this reaction

Yeah get hype get emotional it’s the end of an era this episode marks the end of the first saga of my hero academia everything about the story shift from here on out excited for y’all to see this change and what’s to come

I love how psychological All For One is. All Might should've won this with only mild difficulty but All For One knew all the right buttons to press.

I swear no matter how many times I watch this episode, the feels REALLY hit

Lmao. They finally got to this part. One of the most epic parts in the story to date, anime-wise. Another one will come up in Season 4.

If this was any other episode, I would have gone to sleep and seen it in the morning. But this just couldn't wait.

この回はいつ観ても最高、そしてどこの国の人も同じ感動を共有できて嬉しい。 それはそうと日本人いるかね。。

"Next...is Your turn" is the famous line each OFA holder says to their pupil/successor as the pass on the power. It's like a sign of respect & "rite of passage" for the chosen successor, as each user was given the ever so careful specific task of cultivating the power to defeat AFO in the future. Hence why specific types of like spirited/minded/hearted people were chosen & selected...for their true heartful qualities & passion to protect & self sacrifice as *"True Hero"*

How is it that Japan does Superman better than WB did in the recent movies?

I think the whole 'spirit bomb' scene was a twist on the formula, I.e the whole of this hero society is built around 1 guy, and if he's gone then it all crumbles. So it's more a moment of desperation instead of inspiration

lol the normies knee-jerk solution to every crisis is throw as many people as you can at it no matter how far away or unqualified they are for the task

I shook, screamed and cried so much during this episode. And I cry pretty much every time I see a reaction to it I cry as well.

Great Reaction. Was waiting for this. Can't wait till y'all get to the next big fight.

#4 Hero gets one shotted, normie response maybe more ppl should be on scene.

All might: "i've failed-" Normies: "Yes!!!"

Well after 2 weeks of annoyance, first with the change in schedule before the big fight and some personal issues with editing choices for last weeks' episode, I must say I really enjoyed this reaction.

People out here trying to pretend AFO isn’t well over 100 years old and is taking a United States of Smash straight to the face and somehow it shouldn’t be enough because “All Might was weakened.” Like AFO nearly died in his first fight with All Might and had been living with assistance of machines (he LITERALLY comments on All Might’s arrival with “come to kill me a second time?”). The fact that the USOS didn’t KILL him is amazing and speaks to how strong he really is.

I remember watching this and they were yelling"go"! I was like and do what!? Get their quirks taken!? Get monkey stomped!? Ummm by the time they'd get there unless they have a transporter it would be over!

*UNITED STATES OF SMAAAAAAASSSH!!!!!!!!*

this episode always gives me the goosebumps lol

the ending song is on point i got teary eyed I can't close the video 😢 that was me 4 years ago, i hope i could watch this moment for the first time 😢

*UNITED STATES OF SMASH* Ughhh gives me chills everytime

Shit I forgot how much this episode makes me sob even in the dub

Ahhh.. that's the stuff! 🔥🔥🔥 This reaction will keep me going for a while.

Everytime I watch this episode I get chills

I'm curious to see how they react to Bakugo's "speech".

DO YOUR BEST, TOSHINORI

Everybody gangsta till all might pull out the alabama smash

Finally you guys reacted to this episode it was the best one ever and I kinda wish I get to see your other reaction that you skipped. 🤜💨

You should watch the United States of Smash part in sub, Chris Sabbot made a good job but the Japanes VA went to another level to deliver that line

When you all see the dust blow away from All for one. I was waiting for one of you guys to say "YOU GOT KNOCK THE F#######k out!!!!! 😅 Just saying. 🤷

Still get chills watching that scene

Did not disappoint in THE moment, I'm so proud of you!!

When the black guy doesn't talk as much as he usually does, during the episode, you know the scene is hair raisingly EPIC!!

"All for one has to be kill" like a God says ones who decide it that?

I'm A Patreon, I've already seen this one! 😁 Great reaction guys!

Suraj's recap at the end is perfect. A small spark really created a raging wildfire, and All Might gave it all, everything he had.
