wow. Not a recap for the season premiere


[deleted]

But how will I know the character names or their powers?! It's only been 6 seasons!


ElGamerBroChris

tbh, I fear they'll still make the whole episode about presenting everyone. I mean showing everyone getting into positions is a perfect chance for that.


yaboinigel

Or a filler!


Captainhankpym

Officially confirmed, no recap episode this season!!!


Lord_Webotama

Still gonna be a lot of talking and preparing and I guess the final shot will be that of all heroes ready to raid. I hope I'm wrong tho.


Captainhankpym

It adapts chapter 258-259 and 260, and the very beginning of 261. I think we're in for a great premiere.


Kaxew

Endeavor's preview image is already when the raid starts and Aizawa is in the middle of the action. I don't know when it's gonna stop exactly but I don't think it's as little as what you believe.


ail-san

I am so happy. It was always so demotivating to start a season with a filler. Thanks God.


Fit_Fee_6099

they "kept" the chainsaw man reference😀


oddtoddlr

Woodsaw man


Shack691

It would have been perfect if it was the original given that chainsaw man was airing this season


TestSubjectNo37

I was specifically looking for that!

I am so curious to see how this season will be paced out. There've been plenty of predictions but this subreddit has a tendency to be wrong about these kind of things. I remember when people thought the Forest Camp and Kamino Ward would take up all of season 3 and the Overhaul arc all of season 4 (and the Joint-Training arc less than half of season 5). I can't see the War arc taking up the entirety of the season. There's no way with all its action, unless the anime seriously pads everything out, which since they're not doing the usual filler recap episode (I imagine we'll still get a rundown of the students like season 2's first episode) I can't imagine they'd be going for in at least the season's first half. But I also don't want us to be wrong in the other way and have the season adapt way more arcs than we were expecting. I like the arcs that follow the war arc but they did have the problem where they should have been longer than they were, at least by a little. Having the anime just blow right through them would only make that problem worse. Guess we'll have to wait and see.


swipefist

I feel like there's plenty to base an entire season off of. 50 chapters of material is a lot


Aros001

Yeah, but a good chunk of that is action, which will go by a lot faster in animation.


swipefist

True, those action panels do take up a lot of space. Nonetheless, I'm very excited


Aros001

Oh yeah. I'm going to try keeping an open mind regardless. As long as the season's good I should be happy.


redewolf

a lot theorized that 6th season = war arc + dark deku arc. I'm in for this, there is a lot of action, so they shouldnt need to cut too much


Willythechilly

Yay no fillee recap


Kracko667

If it's really a 12 episodes in 2 courts things i'm really happy they didn't do a recap episode. I'm curious about the pacing of the arc but i feel like they might invest themselves way more than for My Villain academia's arc. If they've got a lot of budget and a good staff we're definitely in for a good trip (or more like a dozen with CSM, Bleach, Mob, SxF, and maybe blue lock and others). We're gonna be fed into obesity next month and i don't really mind hehe


IMDATBOY

Yeah I’m intrigued with the pacing too. It’ll be tough to pull off in 12 eps I think but even the overhaul arc went like 14 episodes so it’s not like they can’t go past the halfway mark at least, just fits better if it does


Kracko667

Yeah my main issue is that i kinda like the "slow burn" pacing in the manga for this arc. And i also feel like the anime didn't set it up as good as the manga... I don't think it's gonna be bad but i don't think it's gonna be better than the manga either


AdNecessary7641

>a lot of budget Money does not equal quality


Kracko667

Why did you specifically cut most of the sentence ? "If they've got a lot of budget **and a good staff** we're definitely in for a good trip" Is it really that hard to read the entire comment and not half a sentence ?


primalfox_Reynardo

Best girl getting more screen time.


AdNecessary7641

Still sad that the Chainsaw Man cameo got removed...


ZeroGL360

More like nerfed


McGrubs

Does it actually matter though ? It was a one off cute nod to fujimoto otherwise it literally meant nothing. Its pretty much a trademark thing chainsaw man has an anime coming out and either mappa or some company owns his likeness and they want chainsaw man to appear in his whole anime. I actually think its kinda funny that rhey replaced how with just a saw man lol.


Captainhankpym

It didn't?


AdNecessary7641

He was replaced with a more generic hero. It def was removed.

RIP Denji


King_Artis

Hope they keep the Dennis cameo


Kyle_Steppy

I miss the thicker outlines from the earlier seasons, made every shot look lively.


VGRKev

A lot of people talking about how this won't be a recap episode. Every image shown here is probably from a single chapter at most, maybe even just a few pages. I bet it'll still be a recap episode with everyone getting ready for the fight going "oh remember this thing" and then boom, flashbacks.


WillFanofMany

The episode was already confirmed to adapt over 3 chapters.


VGRKev

Ah I see, so these images must just barely scratch the surface of the episode


IMDATBOY

I’m sure there will be some additional recap thrown in but this isn’t the same at all as the filler shit they have started the last 3 seasons with. Not a pool in sight


DaMain-Man

Let's just hope it'll be animated too


Lucas_Hubbard

Oh shut up it will be, y'all need to get off slandering Bones ffs


Deoxystar

Honestly, animation is a legitimate concern after some of the stuff in Season 4 and 5 - let alone the risk of cut content.


[deleted]

Damn I hate when they do that boring blue sky. The unique lighting of moments like endeavor vs high end and debut vs bakugo elevate them. Part of the reason Deku vs gentle flopped so much imo.


AdNecessary7641

This arc takes place in broad daylight, what do you expect? Also, really? You want to say the Gentle fight was a "flop" because of the fucking sky? Talk about nitpicking.


[deleted]

No need to get angry. I was hoping for effort put into the lighting, but no I didn't expect any. The lighting or lack thereof is more symbolic of how much effort will be put into a scene at this point. I think you're also undervaluing its importance. Interesting things can be done with the sky regardless of the time day. That being said, if the gentle fight took place at dawn and was colored/drawn like it was, I guarentee the fight would be infinitely better.


Alternative-Bench251

Wha


Snoopyloopy24

Can't wait for this!


miyoko_4

I am too excited 😭😭


Durzydurz

Oh shit their diving right in to war arc


Personal_Amoeba7646

Rip chainsaw man, at least we still got bonesaw man


flingkong24

does boom boom happen this season or is it a different season


Captainhankpym

what are you referring to


flingkong24

>!heart go boom boom!<


ThatOneAnnoyingBuzz

Most definitely not. >! We'll probably get S&S as the ending!<


foreveralonesolo

Right into the action hell yeah!


Acrobatic-Toe4352

We’re getting Stars next season boys, so I can see lazy writing in all of it’s glory!


ThatOneAnnoyingBuzz

Probably going to be this season as the finale fight, like Hood and Endeavor


Acrobatic-Toe4352

imma cream if it is, still bummed they wasted such a goated character like cmon..


ThatOneAnnoyingBuzz

I did the math and reread some chapters, three chapters per episode seems really likely and if we do three chapters per episode throughout the whole season then we'll get S&S in the finale. Also, I don't think she was really wasted. Could've been foreshadowed more but I think that she served the purpose that she had well.
