マクミランさんは僕のヒーローアカデミアを見る
I am once again watching the new season of Boku no Hero Academia, and a new story arc has started. I read the manga, and I know this arc is somewhat infamous for being "filler", or in other words, not very important to the story overall. In this arc, Deku's and his classmates prepare for their school festival, while his rivals Shouto and Bakugo attend a remedial class to obtain their provisional hero licenses. This episode focused on Shouto and Bakugo as they worked with other students in their remedial training. They are tasked with reigning in a group of unruly kindergarteners, and they struggle a lot. The episode ends on a cliff-hanger where the children start to attack them with their quirks (super powers)!
The school culture festival is a very Japanese event, and there really is no comparison with in United States. Since U.S. high schools do not have "classes" like Japanese schools do (where you have the same group of students attended the same classes together) there is no event on the scale of cultural festivals. Another aspect displayed of Japanese culture in this episode is through a new character introduced "Camie" whose gimmick is that she talks in an extremely trendy way and excessively uses slang terms. Even characters in the show joke about not being able to understand her, which sort of makes me nervous that I won't be able to understand the Japanese used by young people and teenagers! Hopefully by actually visiting Japan, I will be able to pick up slang we do not learn in the classroom
