English Dub Review: My Hero Academia “Izuku Midoriya: Resolve”

Overview:

After the Quirkless Izuku Midoriya meets All Might, he becomes the successor to All Might’s Quirk, One For All, which means he must eventually go up against All For One and Tomura Shigaraki.

Our Take:

I’ll make this short and sweet because I love this series but HATE recaps. I understand why they’re doing it, it makes sense. They’re about to catch up to the manga and this season will be a lot of fight scenes so I get that they need to pad some episode length but I still hate that they do this especially when it’s going to be four episodes of recap.

One thing I do like about these recaps is that they show off some of the best moments. Perhaps you wonder if the Deku vs Muscular fight will still send chills down your spine? Wonder no more! I can’t speak for everyone but I still got goosebumps watching that fight. Six years later hearing Justin Briner yell “One for All, one million percent!” still hits like yesterday.

There’s good and bad to be had from recaps but I’ll put it this way. If you’ve kept up with the series up till now then I don’t think this is necessary. So check back in four weeks but for now we will plug along down the recap track.
