I liked it less than the previous few, but there were some funny bits. I liked pretty boy Bakugou and the part with the time guy.
Okay but can we please see That endeavor class become a real scene in the season 5?
Because it was gold.

A weirdly fitting end to MHA Smash. Gets extremely meta at the end, but probably the best volume in the run.

(I received an arc copy of this manga in exchange for an honest review)
I'm a fan of the main series, and anime, but I have to admit I'm quite behind and haven't read the previous volumes of Smash!!, but I am involved in the online fandom enough to have seen quite a lot of previous chapters online and in fan theories.
I really enjoyed the villain chapters because I'm a big villain fan, but it's not often we actually get to see them having fun. It was cool to see the class 1-A kids having lessons and training that we don't really see in the main series that's actually quite important to become a great hero.
It was nice to read the same characters but in funny situations with less stress and real-world consequences of being heroes/villains. I especially enjoyed the League of Villains bonding chapters because we don't see that in the main series since it's focused on the hero class, but it adds a little more to the relationships between them.
I found it interesting to see what the characters would be like in another dimension, and it was funny too. A nice little side story to the main series, even if it's not technically canon, it still had some 'character development'.
I like how the author, Hirofumi Neda included a little story about himself in the back, explaining that he injured his hand and why the quality of some volumes is a little different. It is sad to hear that it won't be continued, but it might come back for an anniversary thing so that could be good.
I will definitely have to check out the first four manga volumes of Smash!! now, and since I don't know anyone in person who reads manga, i would recommend to all fans of the main series, especially the anime fans who enjoy the fun, goofy episodes where nothing plot-heavy really happens.

Smash as an overall series was pretty great honestly. A lot of crude humor, but the way Neda recreated the characters and gave them specific personalities that carried on through the five books was rather entertaining. It was funny to see Midoriya as the obsessive fanboy, or Ochako as the hillbilly poor student. Neda did a great thing by highlighting each characters already funny personality and making them 10x bigger. There were plenty of moments where I physically laughed out loud by how stupid the jokes were, and that’s telling something for a 4 panel manga.
This last book wasn’t as funny or entertaining as the previous four. The Isekai special was kinda random and didn’t really feel like “smash” but still enjoyable. I liked seeing more of the LOV in this book. The LOV really grew on me. And it’s just fun seeing shigaraki in a funny light. Stain was a winner in this book as well.
Overall just a nice series. And I’m sad this series is over.
