Fun fact: For those who remember or go back to see, Dabi's first appearance in the anime was him standing in front of a hair salon

Dabi trying to take them all out in a suicide Prominence Burn was animated beautifully

Both the sub and dub performances for Dabi did AMAZING this episode. Props to their voice actors!

Nobody's mentioned this but give it up to Endeavors dub VA when he said "I believed you were alive" it really captured the panic and despair Endeavor was in seeing his son who he thought was dead charge straight for him

The way Dabi sounded completely psychotic when he said flashfire fist was so sick, his VA nailed it completely

Props to you Normies for not having this reveal spoiled for you. The Dabi is Touya prediction has been popular with the fandom for years now, even after it happened in the manga

You guys missed the point. Endeavor didn't try to fix his family issues because he was finally #1. He tried to fix his family issues because he became #1 and realized how much of his life he had wasted pursuing something so meaningless. He saw how it didn't change anything and he felt remorseful for everything he did in his pursuit

You guys...he isn't stealing his Father's moves....Endeavor TAUGHT him everything. PS never read the Manga, but as a Dad, this scene broke me...

Apparently, in the manga (not sure if its the same in the anime) the first time you see Dabi he's standing outside a barbershop. Thats crazy.

Easily one of the best episodes in mha so far! Fun fact: when this chapter of the mha manga came out, it literally out trended the US election!

Even though we sorta knew, the revelation is executed amazingly. The way Dabi just casually greets them to revealing the secret and backstory to straight out chewing out Endavor with a reason you suck speech to straight out declaring his gonna send him to h###, it was epic, shocking, and somewhat funny. There’s no way Endavor is gonna recover after this. 😁It moments like this is why MHA is one of the best manga/anime’s in recent years.

Shiggy got the heroes in the legs and arms. Dabi got them in the Heart.

Best Jeanist doesn't just control Denim, he controls FIBERS. He has some OP abilities-it probably can't work on organic life, since proteins are fibers. But those chains that dropped down with him are probably made out of Carbon Nanotubes. OP.

11:56 gotta give it to Toya he covered all his bases 😂 he really thought it all through for this very moment

Even though I expected Dabi to be a Todoroki I was still mesmerized by Dabi's theatrics this episode

Dabi's voice actor completely owned this episode and this character! It was his stage, literally, and he nailed it!!

I love how they recognize half truths being told but forget they haven’t actually heard the Mom’s side of the story.

Fun Fact: Rana accidentally predicted the "Dabi is a Todoroki" thing waaayyyy back in their season 3 episode 7 reaction, around the 5:07 mark Edit: Another fun fact, the first time we see Dabi/Toya he is in front of a hair salon

Toga’s quirk makes her want to drink ppl’s blood which isn’t an excuse for her actions but you can also sympathize with how she was ostracized by her family and society and ended up running away at a young age and joined up with the only ppl that accepted her for who she was.

Words truly cannot summarize the pure insanity that was happening in the manga community when this chapter came out

Dabi: You reap what you sow
Endeavor: The sins of the father
Shoto: Am I my brother’s keeper

When Dabi said "Its cancelling time!" and proceeded to cancel Endeavor, its truly become one of the most anime moments of all time

The Todoroki story just keeps getting better.

the reveal in anime is much better than the manga reveal than when he starts dancing it gets even better

The va for the dub for dabi did amazing!!!

Lol man it's so funny they mentioned the fire at sekoto peak was because endeavor pushed him too hard but really its because he stopped pushing him.

Micky looked so excited to see Best Jeanist return! Loved his lil' happy dance!

Y’all's reaction from Dabi's reveal to the end is priceless!!! Can’t wait for y’all to see the rest man you guys are not ready for it

Wow it’s so interesting hearing the dub after the sub, both are completely different but absolutely amazing. MHA is killing it this season bro.

As much as I've been waiting for the reaction to this ep, I really can't wait for the episode 12 reaction as well. Awesome video as always

Todoroki screaming for his dad to help always gets me 😢Their family is so tragic.

12:42 Actually, that kid is the “Look at him!” kid from the end of Season 4 who was hyping up Endeavor when he & Hawks were fighting the Nomu Dabi sent to them.

Yeah, I love how Dabi's just like "Look at this 'hero' stab a guy in the back!" when they had to show a freeze frame because they had to edit out all the blue fire that was burning Hawks XDDD Also, pretty sure Best Jeanist is using carbon fiber cables to restrain Machia and the others.

Fun fact: Dabi's voice actor is the same guy who voices Zeke from Attack on Titan and Qrow from RWBY Volume 7 and 8. I freaking love his performances.

I was spoiled about this last year. Tbh what Dabi said about fire quirks being common is why I didn’t see it coming. I didn’t expect him to release it to the public the way he did, that was crazy

I had the Dabi reveal spoiled for me, which was totally gutting when I saw how they did it as such a massive thing. It was great to see your reactions as people that were totally unspoiled, so thanks guys Also, I thought they did a good job of explaining that Endavour didn't assume Dabi was dead. The fire crew told Endevour that he was probably dead, and that his bones had burnt to ash, but endevour refused to believe it and kept looking for him, only accepting it after they couldn't find any further trace of him

20:52 We literally see the scenes where Endeavor learns how All Might really is and their conversation about what it means to be number one. Marketa makes it sounds like he started changing out of selfish gain and not a shift in mindset. 😅

This is the first time shoto called Endeavor his dad

The thing about 3rd party facts is that there isn't really a 3rd party everyone in the Dabi situation would be biased in the view so pretty much theirs Dabis side and endeavors and Dabi got his story out first so damage has already been done.

Jeanist’s quirk is Fibre Master btw not jean or cloth control. The cables he came with are Carbon Fibres (which are durable as all heck).

Dabi's Prominence Burn would have turned Shoto and Endeavor into Ash 100% Edit.: Well Dabi would have also turned into Ash but I dont think he cares about this.

21:36 That's such a disingenuous take from Marketa. Because of the way the story is told, we've constantly had access to Endeavor's internal monologue and thought process from the moment he took center stage back in season 4, so we know for a fact that his desire to better himself comes from a place a sincerity, and we've seen exactly what was it that made him want to change.

This arc has had its ups and downs, but I still looked forward to seeing how the anime would adapt Dabi's Dance from the manga, and it did not disappoint. Dabi's voice actor went absolutely ham this episode.

Micky's love for Best Jeanist makes me... so happy 🤣

My sub watching ass just stood up and applauded for such an amazing dubbed episode👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Dabis VA did amazing, sounds like he could use something to drink

So, a couple things. Endeavor did love his wife, as we've seen hints to that, but he did have kids with her for the purposes of quirks, but also they have said it's not all that uncommon for quirk marriages to happen in that world.

Endeavor earned his second spot by putting in the work. Despite never beating All Might in the roster (most likely because of the popularity poll) it was said in one of the earlier episodes of the show that he had the highest rating in villain take downs which means higher than All Might’s. He got the job done. Was he an absolutely terrible father and in which made him a terrible person(at the time)?? Absolutely, however, that did NOT and tbh SHOULD NOT diminish the lives he’s saved and the villains he’s stopped. Most of the Top 10 heroes are in there from popularity. Heroes like BJ and that Wash hero don’t have the power level to take down so many top dog villains BUT they’re good with people and get a huge boost from the popularity poll. Endeavor made second being one of the most fearful and arrogant and rude and not very liked heroes out there, he was not carried by the popularity poll, he simply got the job done better than anyone else and made second place then first when All Might stepped down.

I love when surge clarifies things in discussions. He’s so good at that ❤

I love the deep conversation you had at the end! Keep up the good work!

Idk if anyone else noticed this. But when Dabi was heating up and falling towards Endeavor powering up his attack. He was burning so Hot, That he was melting the ice that shoto put on him, to keep him cooled down.

Endeavor had a moment of clarity when he almost died fighting that Nomu. The episode His Start. Best Jeanist can control fibers lol

Killing a villain is still illegal in this world. That's why there's so many rules with becoming a hero. Why the students go through so many training arcs.

20:52 *Manga Reader Opinion* When All Might retired, Endeavor was the next strongest hero to replace him as number one. With that being plainly obvious to everyone, peoples faith with Endeavor as the number one was shaken knowing his personality and how he differs from All Might. Hence, he wanted to ask All Might what it meant to be a symbol of peace and he told him to look at what he wanted to protect. This, coupled with Suraj point of how he became number one led to self reflection on his actions. Honestly characters like Endeavor and Bakugo are the best parts of this series just seeing how they start and where they end up

It's really great watching you all present... and reacting to MHA... If you liked this episode, remember, there are still a couple of episodes left before the end of the arc...

its nice to see ppl actually surprised at the dabi reveal lol, i started interacting with the fandom just before season 3 came out and the dabi is a todoroki theory was already gaining popularity haha

I think you're ignoring the reason WHY he became the way he did. It was because of his obsession with all might. He didn't want to become a better person because he's now the number one hero. He wants to become a better person because the thing that he was chasing that created his mindset is now gone so he can actually think about what he was doing instead of having tunnel vision. It was about never being good enough

It always amazes me that no one figured it out before this moment.

Fun fact: while you guys were watching season 3 episode 7 of mha rana actually guessed that dabi was endeavor’a kid

Poor endeavor. He finally sees the error of his ways and starts being better and it blows up in his face. I guess it’s true that this is a disaster of his own making, it just sucks that it happened right when he started being better.

Riding at the bus near the window. With shower rain and listening to your mini podcast is the best. 😊👍

FINALLY OMFG I KEPT REFRESHING UR CHANNEL FOR THIS REACTION I love yall!!

Even watching you guys react to this episode gave me mad chills

Both VAs were amazing but personally I enjoyed the dub more.

I was so glad when I heard Rana watched them on Twitch. I've never watched anything on Twitch before, but THIS I have to see xD

Yea, I get what you're saying about heroes and villains. I think the reason these villains get defended so much is because so many of them are direct victims/results of things heroes did. They're hurting and heroes did nothing to help them. Because heroes and mainstream society are basically the same thing, it's easy for some to see the villains as more of a rebellious army against an oppressive government than real villains. Like, the American Revolutionaries committed war crimes, but of course here in the US they're lauded as heroes against against the villainous British Empire. Plus, I've seen a lot of people who relate heavily to the real life traumas these villains have. Abuse and mental illness are unfortunately very common things and people connect their own emotions to those they see on the screen. They of course feel validated by that experience and want others to understand where they're coming from, I think. Now, I'm not a villain stan. I empathize with them deeply, but I'm not going to go on defending the things I do. This is just what I've noticed after half a decade in this fandom.

Dude Chris is always spitting facts! No matter how sympathetic a villain can be it’s important to remember that they are still doing bad things. You can’t use your pain to justify burning the world. Keep being awesome Normies!

Endeavor is actually one of my favorite characters due to multiple reasons, but most of all, because he has had sooooooo much character development.

THE REACTUONS WERE HILARIOUS;;! LOL THE MIX OF SCREAMING AND LAUGHING AT THE REVEAL!!! Also ppl were theorizing a lot about dabi being touya before the release of this ep

This is a wild episode but I can't wait for the next episode!!!

Dabi being Endeavor's son was as much surprising to me as the 4th Hokage was Naruto's dad. When the entire couch was screaming I thought they did that out of sarcasm. Can't believe they didn't see that coming.

Lmao it might be silly but for me I had my suspicions about Dabi because every time he ran into shoto or endeavor he would say their full names in this tone that kinda pointed to them being the reason he joined the leauge or that they were his goal is some kind of way

Many people knew that dabi is Toya ( but they used to forget everything so i am not surprised that they never saw it coming ) but they executed this reveal in a good way that's what made it amazing

16:09 I was not ready for this explanation lolol. Was holding my sides cackling.

“We need to lock her in her cell” did you not just listen to what she JUST said? All for one revealed previously quirks have an affect on personality yet you don’t correlate her fixation of blood is out of her control because of that quirk

12:43 I think his appearance is also a reference to Natsu from Fairy Tail; he even has the same voice actor in the dub.

The kid with pink hair is supposed to be a reference to Natsu from Fairy Tail, they even got his voice actor 😂

I WAS WAITING FOR THISSSSSSSS.!!!!!!!

You guys are right that the villains are being somewhat hypocritical with their level of crimes. I think Dabi was just pointing out the hypocrisy of Endeavor being hailed as a hero in public, while in private he was a villain to his family. Dabi doesn’t deny or excuse that he’s done messed up shit himself. Only showed that he’s the product of abuse and neglect that his father carried out in secret. Similar to Shigaraki’s backstory. He believes heroes will “sacrifice” others for notoriety and call it heroism. That’s why he follows Stain’s ideology, because he believes Endeavor was a fake hero. Not saying he’s not a changed man, but in Dabi’s eyes the man who physically and mentally tormented his family shouldn’t have risen so high. Him being a decent dad is RECENT honestly. Hell, Endeavor was bullying Shoto at the tournament like six months ago or something.

glad Rana and micky were on the couch for this one

Chris's criticism of the villains is pretty funny in Dabi's case because Dabi is pretty self aware about what he's doing he just doesn't really give a fuck lol

I love the matching hoodies

"WHAAAAAT????" LMAAOOOO I couldn't wait for this reveal. It was so dramatic, like a Maury episode man... I was screaming just as much

Rana forgot she predicted this when Dani first appeared hahaha

I ran. Dropped everything especially after seeing Rana I can’t wait to watch the reaction 😊

I mean,between Dabi's interest in Endeavor,him sending a high end nomu to kill him back in season 4,the Endeavor internship arc, that season's ending and this season's opening,Dabi being Touya was heavily hinted at,hell im surprised anyone even got surprised by the reveal at all. That being said,it was an amazing episode and i wish Best Jeanist didnt interrumped Dabi's suicide prominence burn.

Did they notice that Shoto called Endeavor dad or were they just too overwhelmed with what was happening at that moment?

Thanks for watching this all the five, this episode deserves it

Rana called this the very first time she saw him.

All these MHA characters are developed. Which means there are positives and negatives to every character, and I always love the discussion the Normies have about all the characters, especially the different viewpoints. I don’t agree with everything y’all say, but I appreciate the discussion and appreciation for MHA and look forward to your reactions

i do be loving the there POV on the topic but as a manga reader am shock by the vary of things they have expect that be explained in the far future I will not say and this was a fun ep can't wait for the next one

And even Endeavour hasn’t found a way to prevent his body from overheating which is why there probably isn’t a way for Dabi to not burn himself while using his quirk which is even hotter then Endeavour’s

Dabi's VA popped tf off this episode. Both sub and Dub. I honestly can't decide which I like. The Raspy hate filled goads of the Dub, or the insane giddy filled taunts of the Sub.

Well we all already see this reveal coming from miles away but still WOW just WOW

Curios to compare the Dub, Dabi’s VA put on the performance of the year in the sub

You guys need to understand that if society didn't first fail these villians, they never would have become villians in the first place. This is one of the main points in the show

+1 for Todoroks Goddamn seriously. Dabi is the perfect friggin' villain, and I fucking love it.

Endeavour is the most misunderstood character 1. Dabi didn't had abusive childhood, to understand dabi equate him with the Tai Lung of kung fu panda 1, actually he had a perfect and most loving childhood, and his feelings toward endeavour is same as Tai lung had toward master shifu. 2. Endeavour neither forced marriage neither abused or forced his wife to bear kids, actually it was endeavour's wife idea to have more kids, all this idea of endeavour being abusive and only caring about his ambition comes from the shoto's perspective who suffered the most among the siblings, remember the middle siblings lived a wonderful life. 3. Endeavour wife was already in depression due to loss of Toya, thats why she blamed endeavour for lighting that thirst of becoming best hero which ultimately consumed Toya. 4. Once Endeavour saw shoto potential, he didn't wanted ir so at best he was super strict on him, its not uncommon for parents to fulfill their dream through their children, only one point where endeavour is wrong is he didnt talked, was more than strict, had no one to talk about Toya so constructed a boundary around himself, was suffering from constant inferiority complex from all might and had a rude outfront.

For a comparison of how hot 2,000 degrees Celsius is; The "roots" of the volcano Kīlauea produces magma (not lava, magma) at temperatures of around 1500 degrees Celsius (2700 degrees Fahrenheit).

Shout out to Justin Briner 🙌👏❤💕✨, Christopher R.Sabat, Colleen Clinkenbeard, Luci Christian, Clifford Chaplin, David Matranga, Ricco Fajardo, Zeno Robinson.

A thing every reactor does not catch, is that Endeavor did not ask for more children, but Rei did. She told him that more children would be better, they could help motivate each other.
