![]() The series revolves around time, its changes, the sudden lack of it, and making the most of what’s left. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t rustle up some obscure covers, including one from a superhero-from-another-franchise, Jeremy Renner. But unlike Season 1, an indie deep-cut lover’s dream, Season 3 isn’t afraid to put some significant hits front and center as well as some timeless classics. The refocus on the current timeline also means a return to present-day music. Like with Season 1, Season 3 of The Umbrella Academy returns to the present day after spending all of Season 2 in the 1960s. ![]() The Umbrella Academy’s Season 3 soundtrack is basically the mixtape of bangers everyone wishes Luther would make for them. ![]() The series has certainly taken inspiration from Way’s musical background, with extraordinary soundtracks full of deep-cut indie hits every season, and the latest installment is no exception. Next arc begins the next season, but I doubt they’ll be able to get through it all given what a doozy that one was and the fact that they’re running out of materials.Before The Umbrella Academy became Netflix’s biggest superhero series to date, the comic’s creator (and series executive producer) Gerard Way was best known as co-founder and singer of My Chemical Romance. But that’s okay now that they’ve got the proper rivalry going on. But he still lost because Bakugo has always been a better fighter than Izuku. Yes, he taps in deep to give Bakugo a proper fight. He wants to surpass the image of victory in his head and that’s manifested as Bakugo. But he also admired him and wasn’t afraid to admit it. He has parts of Bakugo he hates as well, beneath the surface. The only way he was going to confess anything was in the proper shounen way of using his fist. And the person he admired for his strength had that strength taken away in an attempt to save him for being too weak.ĭo I agree with the need for them to settle things with their fist Yes, but only because Bakugo is too prideful because people put him up on a pedestal his entire life. He looked down on the boy who’d always been chasing his back only to now be the one chasing him instead. He was put on a pedestal to where he saw others beneath him, only to be subsequently humbled when he realizes he’s a big fish in a bigger lake. This, my friends, is what happens when teenagers go through some heavy stuff and no one sits them down to talk about it.īakugo’s been a bundle of issues since day one. Of course, they both get in trouble with Eraserhead and get stuck with chores as the episode ends. So he goes out of his way to explain to Bakugo the nature of One For All and the history of it to appease Bakugo and put them on the same level of understanding. The two of them need to be proper rivals to be heroes. He sees them both as carrying parts of being a hero, wanting to succeed and wanting to save people. ![]() Once that was out of the way, he came in and clarified why he gave Izuku his power: Bakugo was already strong, but Izuku needed strength to get into the same ring. Eraserhead is immediately notified that they’re out late and told to scold them by the defense system, but he abstained when All Might asked him to so they could vent their feelings. Unfortunately for him, Bakugo is a better fighter than him and still wins by meteor-dropping him into the street. Izuku even ramps up Full Cowling’s strength to 8% just to surpass him in terms of speed. The only way he can reconcile his emotions is if he fights Izuku to see for himself what All Might did.Īnd then we see where the budget went (not that its been bad all this season) as the two beat the stuffing out of each other. But when it becomes clear that Bakugo is on the verge of a mental breakdown because he’s got no way to vent his feelings, because therapy doesn’t exist, he realizes he has to take him up on it. On top of that, he blames himself that All Might lost his power. Both he and Izuku admired All Might in different ways, and the fact that Izuku’s admiration was what managed to get him the ability to basically become his successor has left Bakugo wondering if his own admiration was wrong. Picking up where the last episode left off, Bakugo’s challenge to Izuku is clarified. Here’s my Recap and Review of Episode 23 of Season 3 (or Episode 61 as a whole) of Boku no Hero Academia (My Hero Academia). ![]()
