Nomu is a PROBLEM | My Hero Academia Newlyweds Reaction | Ep 11, "Game Over” 

All of Season 1 and season 2 episodes 1 and 2 posted to Patreon now in their full length forms! patreon.com/lettsreact Also episodes 11-14 of Code Geass and all the way up to ep 2x9 of Demon Slayer!

Everybody gangsta until all might stops smiling.

If you notice on Momo’s outfit, she actually has a spot to hold a book in case she needs to look something up for creation.

Todoroki is real hero material not just because of his quirk, but also his quick thinking. He figured out a lot of things pretty quickly and is able to keep a cool head (heh) in a fight.

It’s a small detail but when Shigaraki goes for the kill on Asui the second time, Asui try to save Deku from the Nomu instead of trying to get away

I just love the little detail of Shigaraki(handy man) constantly talking like a gamer. He thinks of this as a game. When he thinks they'll lose, he says it's "Gameover". When he thinks they've got a shot, he says they've got a "Continue". Like when you get to restart in a video game. He seems very immature. But at the same time, he also pays a lot of attention to details. Noticing a small detail about Aizawa's quirk and immediately making a plan to counter him. He seems to really think Aizawa is cool. Which, if even a villain thinks you're amazing, you're definitely doing something right. Such an interesting character

Tsu being inches away from instant death and aizawa managing to stop it at the last minute is probably my favourite moment from s season 1

This episode completely sold me on Aizawa. I’ve fallen out of the fandom in the last few years, but I never stopped adoring this character. He jumps into a pile of villains (definitely not his preferred method of fighting) without hesitation, to keep his students safe. He’s broke. And bleeding on the ground, his arms shattered and his face smashed to the floor, and he still finds the strength to keep going to save Tsu. He’s one of my favourite characters of all times.

Carolina Smash is a double chop (2 states), Oklahoma Smash he rotates his body to make a tornadoes (has one of the highest rate of twisters a year).

I said it before but from the first moment we see Aizawa in his sleeping bag he was INSTANTLY my favorite. Then after his reaction in the last episode and seeing what he does in this one… he’s an absolute badass.

Love Aizawa so much this episode he really shows how determined he is to protect his students (kids) ❤ at any cost !!!

i have wondered how Momo discovered what her quirk is, seeing as how most people develop their quirk before they're even 5 and she needs to know the molecular structure of the item to create it. Maybe they thought she could just make water or something at first, since that would probably be the first structure she learned.

I really like the way that the show builds up all might, when he arrives in that scene everyone in the audience always has such a feeling of happiness and calm knowing that he is here now to help. Which I think is impressive as it really makes the audience feel what the people in the world do, he is literally the ‘symbol of peace’ and in this scene the audience feels what that means just as much as the people in this world. I don’t think there are many shows which is able to make the audience feel the exact same way about a character arriving as the characters in the show.

Delaware is also a region that naturally has tidal wetlands, so I think it was also name for the tidal nature of the attack. I believe at one point all might does a spinning attack and names a state known for tornados. So yeah, I think the location chosen also has a lot to do with the "vibe" of the attack as you put it

I’ve been watching them for about 2 years now and it’s amazing how spot on Montana is with her analysis of situations and characters. Like she got shigaraki so spot on that I can’t wait for her to see how that plays out

I liked all the "she is my wife" thank you, i'm married now" thing, you two are so cute 🥰

I started watching my hero academia for the first time when you dropped the first episode so that I would watch your reactions on it. Now I am on season 6 and God!!! It easily became one of my favorites shows of ALL TIME!! it's just amazing. I am so glad I started this master piece and so exited to re-watch it with you guys through the reactions videos.

It's a little thing, but I love the voice acting on "BEGONE". It always gives me chills. Also, Aizawa is the best.

We need a Shiggy simp for Aizawa counter

Dadzawa risking his life for his kids🛐🛐

BRO Kenny’s face when Montana started talking about Shigaraki’s hands made me lose it. She has no idea how close she is lol

9:50 About Momo's quirk, I always feel like her power is deeply underutilized. If really she can make anything as long as she knows the molecular structure, y'know? Ice: It's just water in a solid form. Fire, it's air molecules at very high velocity. So that's Todoroki's power right there. Nitroglycerin: Just look up wikipedia. She could make Bakugo's power. The pink girl's acid, she could make that. The tape-dude, she could do that as well. She can't copy all the powers, but in theory she could do many of them. But all she really does is build tools and weapons. Which are really great, don't get me wrong; I do think that even used the way it is right now she has the most versatile power, not just of the class, but of all characters in the show (I can only think of one exception and even then that'd still be up to debate). All I'm saying is, she could do so much more, too! :p

This episode has a lot of great moments: Aizawa being a certified *badass* ™, students fighting against villains. Even Shigaraki & Co., while terrifying, you can’t deny they’re doing well. And then among the blood, screams and chaos there’s Tsu casually drowning the Grap*st (deserved). Glorious.

You two are so cute together. Also, yeah Aizawa is so awesome, I've definitely got a soft spot for him in the series, I love how protective he is of his students :)

Your love for each other really shows, I wish you guys the best in this new chapter of your life.

Nomu is underrated as a villain, I'll say it first!

Montana figuring out what the quirks are is my favorite thing ever.

My thought was that All Might's Smash names were mostly size based, but also some themed to the location. Like when he does an Oklahoma Smash, he sends enemies flying in all directions. I took this as a reference to tornados. (Though I guess Kansas would have been better suited.)

This is actually how you're supposed to experience such a good show.. sharing thoughts.. immersing in the story itself.. enjoying the show.. (If she managed to catch the fly, quirk confirmed maybe?😅)

I'm the same as Montana in that I work well under pressure and when I HAVE to. It's what made me a good EMT, because when everyone else is panicking, it makes me able to focus and stay calm somehow.

Good news you two! The Attack on Titan English dub for the finale special 1 comes out September 9th.

Well this epeisode we see something new for Midoriya. The force of the smash he hits Nomu with is actually way over exaggerated. That was his first time managing to hold back so he doesn’t break his arm. Though it’s easy to misunderstand the situation due to other factors so I’m sure people are going to tell me I’m wrong despite this being referenced as his first time actually holding back and it’s forever his frame of reference for how to reign in his power

13:08 Mezo Shoji doing work counter: 2 (Why 2? Because 1 was when he managed to pin down Sero (Tape Arms) and Mina (Pinky) and keep them from being swept away by Kurogiri's warp gate.)

recently found your channel, watched the aot reactions (semi-finale dub is out btw) now watching your mha reactions and I love the psychoanalysis you give instead of just "mmm yes cool show" (also you 2 are really cute together)

Fun fact.. Todoroki's japanese voice actor also voices Eren..

Alright we have arrived at my 2 favorite episodes of the season. This finally gets kicked up into a higher gear I have been waiting for some time. Now while it is true that I find the narration at this point in the show to be a tad unnecessary, at the very least it doesn't last TOO long in it's more heavy handed form. I do like the fact that Deku never gets a big head over successful plans as he goes. He has an incredible mind and is capable of locking down 20 or so people at once in a move and he STILL thinks he underplanned. When someone builds up such a track record with such an overpowered force at their fingertips it's easy to fall into the trap of getting arrogant with the plans. Good on Tsu and Mineta to keep his concern in check though. Don't let him go in headfirst, but also don't let him beat himself up. Meanwhile, Todoroki is just over here quietly just pushing borderline war crimes. While he is containing them, as he knocks them over and pushes the ice into their skin, threatens to suffocate them, and just manhandling everyone easy, I guess you could say he's acting quite cold. (And I am almost not sorry, but that was still terrible.) Funny because Tsu is ACTUALLY committing war crimes on Mineta. Not...that many of us can blame her. Hands to yourself Mineta. PLEASE. We got 3 new official powers and all 3 are really great side characters. Kaminari has electric powers, and is essentially pikachu with friendly fire. And a LOT more understanding of electricity. That can easily be one of the deadliest quirks in the show because every human body runs on electricity, but he has no pinpoint at all. But he does short-circuit everyone including himself. Jiro has an untouchable sound shockwave that busts rock and overwhelms the senses while able to boost her own sensory awareness. And Momo is essentially an alchemist from FMA but only transfers from her own body. If she had spread to other objects, she would be among the most broken students. I really like these because there are very clear upsides and downsides to applications and if you aren't completely focused and in tune with yourself it's hard to use these. Momo is the most right now and you can see why she got a recommendation on her intelligence. That is a LOT of molecular structures to memorize. Shigaraki is honestly a very fun villain even if he is bratty. Just because you're a villain doesn't mean you don't geek out about heroes like everyone else. And I love how he is such an Eraser Head fan. Shigaraki is DEFINITELY a sadist though. And it really leaks into who he is as a person. I love his raspy voice. Maybe it wouldn't be that way if he didn't scratch his own neck so much. Most villains have no real official training but Shigaraki DEFINITELY does. Keeping pace and withstanding olympic heroes is no small feat, and being able to catch not just Aizawa's tells but also counting how long on average his quirk is in use is actually some crazy discipline. And his quirk is also horrifying. Ripping off flesh like tree bark off a tree. And while the effect is cut off by Aizawa breaking free fast, imagine what happens when he keeps his hand on him for lengthier times. That's not pretty to think about. And Aizawa can just keep on going against STILL over a dozen people at once and keep going. But is quickly interrupted by the Nomu. I think it goes without saying 13 is based on Apollo 13. The rocket started malfunctioning on it's way to the moon and survived by a miracle despite being so beaten up on the way back. 13 consequently early into the conflict has her back ripped open. And just to put any thoughts to bed, 13 is a person in armor, not just hallow armor. Her backside is MESSED UP. And while Kurogiri remarks being a rescue hero makes her not very good in battle, it's more because she is wearing bulky armor that doesn't let her turn her head easily. Which is a strange oversight, but as he said, not really much issue when you aren't focused on fighting. I won't deny I am curious how she even uses her quirk to save lives. Does she use it on fire, rubble, and whatever hazard is around? Just food for thought. We get to see the lovely drawbacks of the kids having no inner monologues, the villains even call them out a number of times for it being REALLY dumb. Iida likely would have an easier time escaping if he wasn't screaming his head off on the way out and the kids warning Kurogiri they have hands on him. I have no idea why Kurogiri has his NECK of all things exposed. Seems like a really bad idea, but we actually often never get full details on villain quirks and their applications because the element of surprise is often all they have. While heroes are registered and licensed and can have their quirks researched not just by looking them up but watching them on TV. They are public officials after all. Nomu is INCREDIBLY problematic. It's an unidentified creature with a melted skull from the looks of it. Aizawa can't even cancel it out because it's so "naturally" jacked even if there are zero things natural about it. He completely breaks down Aizawa in such a way I am genuinely stunned Aizawa's limbs remain intact with how we see them bent. THAT IS NOT HOW ARMS BEND. And Aizawa STILL finds the energy to stop Shigaraki from attacking the kids one last time. And Nomu can even prevent OFA from being completely unleashed. Make no mistake, that was a maxed punch with that shockwave. And it IMMEDIATELY clicks in Deku's head what is meant to be used on All-Might. Who walks in right on cue. Next episode is the easy favorite of season 1. I know it's mine. Plot armor may not be as strong as we originally figured in this show.

Todoroki isn't calm because he is cool under pressure. Todoroki is calm because he is emotionally detached due to… I won't spoil it. Did I mention that these characters have lovely character arcs? I love the tail guy. All he has is a muscular tail. Most of his combat prowess comes from martial arts skill.

17:38 - 17:42 "My arm doesn't bend that way! MY ARM DOESN'T BEND THAT WAY!! ( *CRACK* ) OH NOW IT DOES!!"

I knew Montana would love Momo. It would be really interesting to see her cosplay as her. I feel like she could embody the character really well.😏

I always found it so amusing how iida is supposed to be very fast and yet he takes firver to go through that door 😂

oooOOO I can’t wait for next week’s episode!! i *know* Montana is gonna love the upcoming fight! :^DD

WAIT WHAT- English VA of Borritoo is the same as Todoroki!? NO WAY! Even I didn't know that-

Montana i hope you find some good meds or something 🙏 I've had GAD/MD since i was a kid. The pandemic (especially where i lived because people believe in every conspiracy theory) had me so incredibly anxious, paranoid, scared. I had my medications changed and then suddenly the weight was off my shoulders

'Destroyed your elbow? Is that a critical component?' LOL

You guys are being so cheesy it's adorable! 😂❤❤❤ I wish you always be happy together.

Fun fact: The reason Shigaraki has so many hands on him is because the mangaka, Kohei Horikoshi, loves to draw hands and considers them to be as expressive as faces Horikoshi also eventually ends up hating drawing the hands on Shigaraki because they're dead and not expressive at all

montana looks so pretty 😭 i mean she always does but i love!!

Every time Monata says "vacuum man" I HURT! Tomura Shigaraki is one of my favorite characters, together with Toshinori Yagi, Shouta Aizawa, Momo Yaoyurozu and Jin Bubaigawara.

Can we talk about how that insulation blanket was apparently a tenth of a meter? I think they meant 10 millimeters.

9:24 I feel like they neglected to mention the fact that Momo’s ability is dependent upon the amount of lipids stored in her body… or do they mention that later on in the dub. It’s kind of a key component to her ability…

2:55 ohh my headcanon for half the smashes ar about style Like I assume Delaware was because we was doing this on water. 5:50 mmm 12:40 glad you didn't get pissed since this is kinda similar timing 14:46 PLEASE no one comments on this amazing idea 24:50 I'm gonna like this 27:49 heh magic bag

You guys' reactions are the best. Also, love the wombat shirt.

I always figured it was called the Delaware smash because he did it in the water

Todoroki (ice man) also has the japanese VA of eren

Love Todoroki, He is powerful, Smart and Confident.

She did a double entendre there… “Reverse Dehumanization”, so he’s just very human🤔… She explained what she meant(I’m not criticizing) but that double entendre makes it contrary to what she meant overall… Just a small detail😁

I can't wait to see next weeks episode of Michael Keaton as Birdman vs All Might

Proffesor Kenny: excellent analysis

The creation power I feel like it's similar to alchemy in full metal alchemist

Are early reactions available for people in the $10 tier??? Or is it only for the $20 tier? Because I just joined Patreon on the $10 tier and everything is still locked 😕 I'm confused on what I'm paying for exactly.

(At 10:05) So her quirk remotely similar to transmutation?

15:50 have you tried EMDR?? My aunt had the same anxiety when waking up and it solved it for her. I have a similar thing but with falling asleep (or being unable to) and im going for EMDR soon.

The power of friendship is like an actual really valuable asset in this world and story and I adore how well horikoshi implements it Also, y’all are super cute, like the neurodivergent chemistry is so palpable it’s really nice (as a queer person who suffered homophobia growing up, I definitely went down the *very “few straight couples are healthy”over correct once I accepted my sexuality”* route and have healed enough that I’ve found it easier to love the chemistry of straight passing couples again; y’all give me hope, cheesy as that may be) Edit: also, I adore getting to show people something I love for the first time, so I love how excited Kenny is to show Montana this super fucking awesome world

Aizawa the GOAT !!

28:27 lol THATS MY WIFE BUDDY

Ah I cant wait for the next one!

Yo!!! Anxiety buddies!!

2:40 sorry to critique your interpretation but i think the name of the smash is in reference to the style of the smash. Not power scaling. Detroit = all out punch Carolina= two hand slice Texas= another punch Manchester = downward kick Wyoming = hand chop Etc......

"You're looking at a sheet of insulation 100mm thick." There's no way that thing is 10 cm thick. That's 3,9 inches for you Americans.

Kenny, brother, you do this a lot when you're excited about a show you've already seen, but you've gotta trust that Montana is watching lol. I know it's probably not intentional, but you're really trying to steer her to having the reaction you want her to have instead of just letting her react

this show is absolutely amazing and i love it.....but i still have to say my usual comment.... : GURREN LAGANNNN!!!!!!! :)

You guys are so cute omg my theeth hurt

it feels weird with the dub. I prefer the sub version, felt more like anime :v

It's really irritating to see a reaction to a show when one part is grinning to themselves all the time and in good moments knowingly start to the other part who doesn't know the show. In addition, people who know the show tend to try to point out things to people who don't know the show. I think I'll stop watching it, it's really annoying.

"A lot of people need their elbows" my god lmao

Really just skipping over deku not annihilating his arm
