Before My Villain Academia took over, it was the fifth season of My hero academy contained a short but fairly important story arc. Following the advice of Endeavor, Deku, Bakugo and Shoto have a better understanding of what it means to be a hero and to work within the Hero Society.
The teachings of the current number one turned out to be very important, especially for the young Bakugo. Like his mentor actually, Kacchan feels second, behind his childhood friend rival Izuku Midoriya. Just like Endeavor, Katsuki is guided by the desire to be superior and the same level as Deku. to reach pursue their goals with arrogance, sheer strength and aggression.
This path was taken a few years earlier by Enji Todoroki himself, who, in order to overcome All Might, was willing to sacrifice the calm of the family and forced Shoto and his brothers to constant and hard training to demonstrate his superiority. Despite the mistakes of the past Effort has effectively become a symbol of peace, and he is proving to be a good teacher, far more so than the teachers at Yuei High.
However, the immaturity caused by age, an explosive and aggressive quirk, combined with Bakugo’s fragile and unstable character, could be a dangerous mix that could lead him to an existence of envy, commitment and sometimes desperation To try in every possible way to reach the stage that Deku has occupied. This is a sad parallel to Endeavor himself, who, before fully understanding his responsibilities after All Might stepped down, consistently backed the latter.
To conclude, we’d like to remind you that episode 5×21 is available on Crunchyroll, and we’re leaving you with an awesome All Might sketch by artist Chris Samnee.
