Definitely an improvement from the previous volume. Spoilers ahead!!

The second test was much more relevant, rescue operations is way more realistic! But I hated how so much of time was wasted on Inasa, a stupid guy with a crazy strong quirk upset that Endeavor didn't give him an autograph! And he had the audacity to put Shoto in the same bucket as his dad, this guy just annoyed me.

There was tremendous amount of team work from the rest of the class but poor Shoto ended up with petty Inasa. But through this we now know Todoroki is still reeling from the trauma his dad caused him. I was worried it was winded up in those first few volumes but now I can hope for some angst!

I knew it was fishy when Bakugo's flashy moves weren't being shown, this guy is just not built for rescue. So when both him and Shoto failed, I was not so shocked. Happy for Deku but terribly sad for Shoto.

Then comes the best part of this volume, Bakugo connecting the dots about Deku's quirk. I was going to be mad at him but dang it. Who knew he was blaming himself for All Might's retirement all this while? Behind his hard exterior, he seems to be just as emotional as Deku. But I'm glad they are finally talking it out, albeit with fists!

PS : My intuition was bang on about Gloop Girl!

The exam continues and comes to an end. It was quite a fun one, though some guys should really try to hold in their emotions a bit more. I was proud of Class 1, they got less experience but they showed they got talent.. and maybe a bit of manga magics because yeah... Just a bit disappointed about how it all ends well. I did love the various parts of the exam, that is one way to test heroes.
And next up we got a chapter from a villain's (I am guessing at least) POV. It was interesting as it showed a bit day by day life + gave info on the villains.
Next up is a chapter with All Might and lastly we got Kacchan and Midoriya chatting. Or well, Midoriya wants to chat. Kacchan just wants to fight. Geez. These two. You just got your fucking license and you want to fuck it all up? I am sorry, I just was pissed at these two.

It's has kept me invested especially now that it feels Midoriya has starting to make process with his quirks. As well as we get to see more character development from bakugo. Where the manga left us has made me want to read the next one straight away.

Found it to be alright. Funny to be how quick the first hundred pages seemed to be
