My Hero Academia (TV Series) Climax (2017) User Reviews

A Stain on his name!

[randreww · 8/10 · 16 June 2019]

A great episode but a little drawn out at times with flashbacks, which never impinge the present moment! The animation is very detailed in this one. And the native voice acting is superb!

You feel for stain at the end. A man delivered to himself for the one thing he scorned Iida for... Revenge. Without a doubt one of the finest Villains of the show. Sad to see him go out in an abrupt manner like that. But I suppose it wouldn't have been a "Climax" if he returned to beat down again!

A great episode I couldn't wait to watch!

Anti-Hero

[yhcbqfhrp · 10/10 · 18 November 2023]

The hero killer is the true definition of an anti-hero. This person carries a message of great meaning and fights with all his strength and courage for this message, which is a world without false heroes and without villains who use their powers to oppress people. The hero Stein died defending this principle. It is a masterpiece I have seen. At the same time, we see Midoriya carrying the spirit of a hero that led him to boldly defend his friend and hostage, and he implemented what his teacher and hero, All Might, told him (interfering in what does not concern you is the true essence of a hero). When Stein heard this sentence from Midoriya, he admired it because he was sure that Midoriya is a true hero like All Might, so he decided to let him live after paralyzing him.

CRINGE

[kaidenhoff · 7/10 · 14 May 2024]

I'm not much of an anime guy but I love this show! It's completely different from every other anime. However, I didn't exactly feel this way during this episode. One thing MHA does well is having that one amazing episode every season. I believe this was supposed ti be that episode since it's literally titled "Climax." But I did not get the same sense of enjoyment that I did from episodes like "One for all" or "Todoroki: Origin". What really ruined it for me was the cringe dialogue. Every word they said made it seem like they put a 5 year old in charge of writing the episode. I couldn't help but cringe when they said things like "if I just use my arm." I mean who would actually say that, ever. Whatever, I still love the show in general this episode just kinda let me down.
