That actually annoyed me because even if he's fun individually as a character he's basically filler-lad as far as I'm concerned

Nah. I mean, he stuck around past his intro arc and it's a good thing, which distinguishes him from basically every filler lad ever. If anyone deserves that shade it's probably Nighteye.

It's moments like the school festival arc that really makes me fall in love with this series. I mean the action and more serious arcs are also really good. But I just love seeing these kids goof off together.

It's like how everyone's favorte DBZ episode is that one filler one where Goku and Piccolo learn how to drive cars. It gives us insight into the characters as humans.

The baseball episode was one of my favorite episodes from Super.

filler should 100% of the time be lowkey stuff or slice of life stuff if it can't use author notes to focus on an unspotlit character or draw from omake sections

we already have plenty of content of the characters fighting a villain in the base material every single time. give me a heist movie

imagine if all filler arcs were outlandish nonstandard situations

Mirio isn't filler, he's the greatest Hero of his generation.

At least, he is where it counts.

whereas nighteye was just a self-terminating prick who added nothing except pointless conflict and some weirdly fetishistic moments

Anyone not in Class 1-A or teaching 1-A OR part of the Villain Alliance trying to kill Class 1-A is a pointless filler character. I know how stories work and should be written because I am very smart.

I enjoyed Mirio, in particular the juxtaposition of his ambition to save a million people and his willingness to sacrifice himself to save just one (Eri). I thought the whole plot about whether he might've been a better bearer for One for All was good, too, because the obvious resolution would've been for him to either fail some moral test Deku passes that shows Deku was the right pick all along or else die to show worthy bearers of One for All are a rare and high-risk breed. Instead he comes through alive, morally intact and friends with Deku - the story is comfortable just letting him be there. Could he have inherited One for All? Eh. Probably. He didn't though, and that's okay.

It helps that he's also just pretty fun and odd, the flashbacks of his dorkier early years learning how to use his power were funny and he's a good as part of Eri's caretaking team too.

Shinso is cool but man it's great to see 1-A working together.

Froppy dominating out here is making up a little for her lack of doing anything in the Overhaul fight. Hopefully Uravity gets a chance to shine in round 5 too even with Deku there to pull the spotlight.

EDIT: Also that chart is terrible. First of all, har har Mineta sure, but Deku goes gaga over Uraraka on the reg. Swap him with Kirishima.

I hope we get to see the full fights for round 2, 3 and 4 as well. Hopefully we didn't get to see this one just because Shinsou was in it.
