  It was nice getting a bit more back story on All Might! Though parts of his past have still yet to be revealed. I'm also loving seeing all the characters grow in their abilities. Overall another solid volume!

  The story is slowly taking a darker turn. I like it. Well i am intrigued now so i'll have to keep reading it :)

  Actual rating 3.8 stars.
  About time I started this manga back up!
  I’m so glad I watched the anime to re-familiarise myself with this world and the characters. Though, there were of course some variations.
  
  This volume included the conclusion to the Hero Killer arc.
  I’m not sure how I feel about that ending. Stain had fight still left in him but then he just stopped? There’s an explanation however, I felt a little unsatisfied.
  
  I really like that experience allowed Ida, Todoroki and Midoriya to become closer.
  Really great moment when Todoroki (kind of unnecessarily) stood up for them.
  
  Back to normal with the students' internships over. Now it's final exam time!
  
  Before that though, we learn more about when society was first introduced to Quirks and how one man took advantage of the chaos. Plus the origins of what is to be known as ‘One for All’!
  I wanted to know more about the two brothers. Hopefully we get more information later on.
  
  The final exams consisted of Class 1-A going up against their teachers!
  Midoriya and Bakugo are paired up. Simply because they’re on such bad terms…
  The teacher they’re up against… All-Might of course!
  
  This volume is called Katsuki Bakugo: Origin but it’s only a very brief flashback into Bakugo’s childhood and it doesn’t explain why he’s so insistent on being the best. All we learn is he once admired All Might.
  
  That cliffhanger though!
  
  I forgot how good the art is! The splash page with Stain, Ida and Midoriya was amazing. So many details!

  Ok, finally reached a volume I didn't love. I'm also worried that a summer camp arc is coming up and I hope it's not predictable and/or boring. And why was it so easy to capture the Hero Killer? I thought for sure he'd last longer. 😕
  
  3.5 but I can't round up because I found parts of this slightly snooze-inducing. I might take a break and read something else for a bit and come back to this series later.

  Solita premessa: il mio giudizio potrebbe essere in parte condizionato dal fatto che abbia visto prima l'anime e solo in seguito letto in manga.
  
  Deludente. Lo sviluppo della trama è deludente. E il fatto che le azioni scene più interessanti siano spezzate tra un volume e l'altro non aiuta a viverle al meglio.

  Another perfectly solid volume that dishes out some more backstory for a couple of characters. As a whole, it’s a slower book, but what story there was was still pretty exciting, and the ending was a tease, as usual.
• 
  Maria

  Here are the highlights:
  Final exams!!!
  Students vs teachers battles!!! 👊🏼
  THE PRINCIPAL IS A SAVAGE
  Uraraka likes Midoriya *fake exaggerated gasp*
  GRAPE JUICE KICKS A S S
  Katsuki & Deku vs All Might!!!!
  (Character development status: skyrocketing)
  Bonus: a few things about the origin of one-for-all get explained

  Wow Bakugo's a real jerk in this volume, but yeah most of this volume was focused on Ida and Stain instead of Bakugo's origin. It starts getting into him and his insecurity towards the end. I think Bakugo will be an interesting character the further I read, but he still just doesn't jump out to me. I do really love these tests and battles when the kids team up and use their quirks together. It's fun.
  
  *Original Review 11/13/2018*
  It says this is Bakugo's origin story, but it's not mentioned until the very last chapter of the book??
  
  I really like Kohei Horikoshi as an author after reading his little side notes. He really likes to delve deeper into his characters and come up with backstories even for super minor characters. I really like this series and I'm glad I finally decided to give it a chance. ♥️

  Love the originality behind the latest exam and how each battle has a purpose. It's nice that they give us a bit more insight into the mysterious backstory of All Might and further develop some of these characters with a serious tone.

  My face after I finished reading this volume:
  
  I am so angry right now. Those assholes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHY WOULD THEY DO THIS???? THEY ENDED THE VOLUME ON THE BIGGEST FRICKEN CLIFFHANGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  
  But yenno other than that this was a great volume, like always. The last chapter is titled “Katsuki Bakugo: Origin” but it didn’t seem much like an origin to me, but whatever. What’s actually going on is still pretty cool.
  
  We got some actual backstory on the origins of One For All which was cool. We got lots of hints about things to come, like how things are going to go downtown and the Villain’s League/Association/Whatever-it’s-called is going to start wreaking havoc, so that’s going to be fun. This series has a good balance of hardcore high-stakes fights, humourous moments, and laid back scenes.
  
  Is so good. So very good. But I’m still mad about how the volume ended. So cruel. QnQ

  watched the first 2 seasons of the anime last month and quick read the next few volumes!

  The book was pretty good. Every time I finish one I wonder what the next book has to offer!
• 
  Victor The Reader

  After facing the notorious Hero Killer, Midoriya and others learn that being a hero also comes with the law trying to stop you and as their internships come to a end, their next lesson include a tag team battle against a hero and Midoriya’s unsurprisingly paired with giant hothead Bakugo. A- (91%/Excellent)

  Wing Kee

  Solid character development.
  
  World: Solid art and strong world building that loves the story forward. The follow up of the Stain arc which give us a lot of character world building pieces.
  
  Story: The action is less until the exams but wow the quiet moments were great. It's a bit different to the show and I like it. The time we get with characters is needed. I really also enjoyed the pacing and the lighter tone to allow for readers to breath.
  
  Characters: Great depth and new info for All Might and Deku but not just that. Bakugo gets some depth but that still doesn't make me like him all that much. Just strong moments for characters throughout.
  
  Solid.
  
  Onward to the next book!

  Ce tome est comme les précédent très drôle (le passage avec bakugo chez best jeanist m'a fait hurler), on y apprend aussi l'origine du one for all et donc de son associé le all for one, j'aime beaucoup le fait que l'un soit dérivé de l'autre.
  Comme toujours, le passage à la fin du combat avec Bakugo et Deku est plein d'émotions.

  Some of the darker stuff is getting revealed. The origins of the One-For-All talent and the All-For-One, especially.
  
  What I thought was most interesting was the final exam time: All-Might against the worst duo. Too funny.
• 
  Sam

  Another great installment in the series. I'm getting close to catching up to where the anime has reached for now. It'll be really interesting when I start reading stuff that I haven't seen before. Oh, and I absolutely love the random pages that have background on the characters or their outfits or behind the scenes details about the series. I just think it adds a rather cool element to the reading experience.
  
  Oh, and I read this as part of the Manga Madness Readathon.

  Again, great volume and I loved it from start to finish <3
  
  In this volume, the battle with Stain (who seems to be a little of an antithesis to All Might?) is concluded, and our heroes get away with minimal injuries (whoot!), before the aftermath is dealt with. There's also a little more hero training followed by a final exam for the first years; with a written test and practical test to see how they've progressed.
  
  I loved getting to learn some of the background behind the creation of One for All, and how it connects to a villain known as All for One, and also getting to learn a little more of why Bakugo is the way that he is.
  
  I look forward to the next volume, which should have the conclusion of the practical exam - especially the one for Bakugo and Deku which I'm sure will be GREAT.
  
  Chapter notes below for reference:
  
  
  Chapter 54.
  Looks like Iida’s having a bit of an identity crisis, poor guy 8’D
  --
  And he’s over it, whoot! All because he refused to let his friends be further injured as a result of his crusade c:
  --
  Teamworkkkkk. Combining all their abilities (both quirk and physical), both Iida and Deku (with the help of Todoroki) were able to get an AWESOME hit on Stain!
  
  
  Chapter 55.
  Huh. Gran Torino’s ability is similar to Iida’s… Iida’s is basically like a powerful (car) motor engine, whilst Gran Torino’s is more of a “jet” - allowing for not only top speeds, but also really long jumps and such to the extent that it might seem like he’s flying. Wonder if there’s any relation… after all, there tend to be similar quirks within families, right?
  --
  Looks like Deku overdid it again - but not to the extent of a broken bone, PROGRESS!
  -
  Teamwork beat Stain, and they even have him all tied up! :D Didn’t even NEED saving by a pro - whoot! And just in time for the pro backup to arrive ;D
  --
  MIDORIYA’S BEEN ABDUCTED BY A NOMU :O
  --
  ...A nomu that was just killed by a rather pissed off Stain, thus rescuing Midoriya. Didn’t see that one coming.
  
  Chapter 56.
  Stain is a surprisingly idealistic killer tbh. Reminds me a little of Itachi Uchiha… only far more messed up 8’D
  --
  DON’T GO LOSING YOUR COOL (...heh) ENDEAVOUR. DEKU’S IN THE WAY.
  --
  Huh? Is Stain a former hero? o.O
  --
  ...Is the dog chief of police also a animal that gained a quirk, like the headmaster of U.A? o.O
  --
  “Congrats on defeating the Hero Killer. You’re all in BIG TROUBLE for using your abilities to fight a villain in public though. BIG TROUBLE.”
  ….what?
  --
  Basically, if you go “public” and say how the Hero Killer was apprehended, Deku and co. would need to be punished according to law, but so long as it’s kept private they’re good? Weird.
  
  Chapter 57.
  News stories showing Endeavour as someone who “apprehended Stain when he was confronting several heroes and teenagers” 8’D
  --
  OH MY GAWD, LOOKIT KACCHAN. Best Jeanist is trying to make him RESPECTABLE *guffaws loudly*
  --
  Iida might have permanent damage? :o And it seems he’s going to purposely not let it be properly healed until he “succeeds in becoming a true hero”? Brave, but will there be unintended consequences as a result?
  --
  “One for All” is back again? Who’s that? Some polar opposite to “All for One”? o.O
  --
  Looks like we have a new League of Villains incoming. DUN DUN DUN. These ones all look REALLY NEAT too, so I’m excited!
  
  Chapter 58.
  Huh. So Deku DID fracture his arm. Still, better than usual.
  --
  I would be reacting EXACTLY THE SAME to Bakugo’s new “look”. It’s AMAZINGGGG. Doesn’t suit him at ALL.
  --
  Oh wowie, lookit Uraraka o.O She’s definitely had some fire lit under her.
  --
  NO IDA. YOUR ARM IS STILL INJURED.
  --
  “Now keep the destruction of property to a minimum!” *points at Bakugo*
  XD
  --
  Ooh… Midoriya vs. Iida vs. Ashido vs. Ojiro vs. Sero (5-way race ;D) to see who can “rescue” All Might first. I love everyone taking bets on who will be first… ‘cept Bakugo who just says that Deku will be last. I feel that after his training with Gran Torino he has a pretty good shot though!
  --
  WHOO! GO MIDORIYA! Granted, he kinda tripped up at the landing and ended up coming last (...I think), but he’s still made a lot of progress!
  
  Chapter 59.
  I completely forgot that Stain had injested Midoriya’s DNA… aka the DNA of “One for All”, the way that Midoriya got his ability. Good thing the ability can’t be stolen! 8’D
  --
  Waitttt… so the Nomu are people who were given quirks by “All for One” and couldn’t handle the ability in some way? o.O
  --
  Huh. So the All for One quirk came about by the One for All guy giving an (unwanted) “power stocking” quirk to his younger brother, who already had a quirk that allowed him to pass his quirk on to others (...which by itself, is a completely useless quirk XD), thus creating the rather super powerful “All for One”. Neat!
  --
  So All Might “destroyed” All for One… only he didn’t do it thoroughly enough so now the guy is back, and the hidden figure behind the League of Villains.
  --
  “Probably… when that day comes… I won’t be here for you anymore.” (/thought, not said - as it SHOULD HAVE BEEN)
  Saw THAT coming.
  --
  OH MY GAWD. All for One looks creepy AF.
  
  Chapter 60.
  hehe. Yaoyorozu is the top academic student with Iida second? Makes sense. Pretty impressive that Bakugo scored higher than Deku though o.O
  --
  Kendo seems awesome! :D She’s the 1-B president, right? o.O
  --
  Bakugo’s back to his old pissed off self, yay!
  --
  Oh look. Rather than battling robots as expected for their final exam… they’re battling their teachers. All of whom are pro-heroes. Have funnnnnnnnn guys :P
  --
  And Deku & Kacchan are paired up together against All Might. This is going to be AWESOME.
  
  Chapter 61.
  I love that all the pairings were decided to put the students at a disadvantage… as if fighting against pro-heroes wouldn’t ALREADY do that XD
  --
  So either incapacitate your opponent by placing the cuffs on them, or escape the arena and thus their grasp. Whilst I’m sure at least some of the teams will manage this, I’m curious as to HOW they’ll do so…
  --
  Asui and Tokoyami make a good team, they’ve got their strategy and communication down pat. That’s a good sign c:
  --
  Yep. Deku and Bakugo are at a DISTINCT disadvantage, solely as a result of their personality clashes. There’s no way in HELL they can get through this and succeed without learning how to work together. Which I have a feeling will take a WHILE.
  
  Chapter 62.
  ”You’re not the boss of me!”
  ...Well this is going to be… swell
  --
  So Bakugo is determined to win, and be the best, at any cost… whilst Midoriya sees All Might as his idol and doewsn’t feel they have even the slightest chance against him in battle. Sounds about right.
  --
  I love these flashbacks to a young Bakugo. He 100% idolised All Might <3
  --
  HAHA. GO DEKU. PUNCH BAKUGO INSTEAD OF FIGHTING ALL MIGHT. THIS IS *GREAT*
  --
  “The strongest heroes… always win in the end.”
  That honestly explains a LOT about Bakugo and his refusal to ever give up, or let anyone be better than him.
  --
  WHOOOO TEAMWORK. WELL *DONE*

  و اینم از جلد هفتم مانگاmy hero academia...
  این جلد ادامه فایت دکو و شوتو و ایدا در برابر هیرو کیلر بود که در همون چند چپتر اول به پایان رسید و بعد از اون وارد پیش نمایش هایی برای یک ارک جدید شدیم یعنی ارک اردوی تابستانی که پیش نمایشش امتحانات ترم یو ای هست که هنوزم ادامه داره و فکر نمی کنم که تا اخرای جلد بعد تموم بشه و توی این جلد تنها امتهان عملی رو که کاور میکرد دکو و باکوگو در برابر المایت بود که اون هم هنوز به پایان نرسیده و امیدوارم فایت های خوبی در جلد بعد در انتظارمون باشن....
  آرت بسیار خوبی داشت و همچنین توی این جلد با بسیاری از حقیقت های وان فور آل اشنا شدیم که فکر کنم مبحث رو در جلد های دیگه بیشتر باز کنه و این جلد و جلد بعد به احتمال قوی فقط مقدمه هستند و در کنار اینکه خیلی موضوع مهمی رو کاور نمی کنن اما جذابن و داستان من رو به خودش جذب می کنه.....
  این مانگا رو از دست ندید....

  The first time I watched the anime, I found Bakugo's origin episode to be a bit underwhelming. But when I rewatched it, my brother pointed out a different way of interpreting the episode that is super simple but adds a completely new layer to it -- the flashbacks aren't the point.
  The "origin" stories of the characters aren't to show how they got to where they are now -- each "origin" episode is the character's starting line for who they'll become.
  
  And that makes this volume -- specifically the last issue -- so brilliant.
  
  I feel a bit stupid for not noticing this before, since it seems super obvious now, but anyways. I love it.
• 
  Christine

  As a fan of Stain, I’m sad that he ended up not being main villain.
  
  As the students continue with their studies, Deku and Bakugo are forced to team up to defeat All Might. This leads to Bakugo refusing to team up with Deku.
  
  This volume is frustrating for many reasons, but the main reason is Stain leaving the picture and Bakugo treating my baby Deku like garbage.
• 
  Mehsi

  New background story, ominous going-ons, battles, broken bones, some humour, exams, and much more. This was such a great volume! I really enjoyed it and I cannot wait to read some more of this series (and pray that my library adding up to volume 10 (+ another library also having some random volumes) isn't a jinx but means they may actually add more + also other series).
• 
  Chelsea &#x1f3f3;️‍&#x1f308;

  This volume was mostly exposition. It covers the aftermath of the fight with Stain, the Hero Killer and then it's mostly explaining the origin of the villains trying to kill All Might.
  
  So, not the most entertaining for me. I am curious about the cliffhanger it ended on, though.
  
  If I ever met Mineta, I would kick that perv in the face, to be honest.
