Boku no Hero Academia 6 – 14
「極々、地獄)」 (Gokukoku, Jigoku") "Hellish Hell" All of Izuku's narration in the A-part can be boiled down to "things are really bad".
Boku no Hero Academia 6 – 10
「僕らの中の人」 (Bokura no Naka no Hito) "The Ones Within Us" If you want an arc with event, “Paranormal Liberation War” has you covered.

Boku no Hero Academia 6 – 01
「静かな始まり」 ( Shizukana hajimari ) "A Quiet Beginning" The stage is set for Boku no Hero Academia to catch a lot people sleeping.
Boku no Hero Academia 6 – 11
「ダビダンス」 (Dabi Dansu) "Dabi's Dance" Those heroes dropping out of the sky might as well have been shoes, the way this season is going.
Boku no Hero Academia 6 – 21
「麗しきレディ・ナガン」 (Uruwashiki Redi Nagan) "The Lovely Lady Nagant" The very foundation of hero society is rooted in exceptionalism – and that’s its greatest weakness.
Boku no Hero Academia 6 – 07
「災害歩行」 (Saigai Woukaa) "Disaster Walker" It was a hell of a week at Bones Plaza.
Boku no Hero Academia 6 – 13
「ラストステージ」 (Rasuto Sutēji) "Final Performance" Among the League of Villains at least, the sense of personal loyalty is no different than it is among the heroes.
Boku no Hero Academia 6 – 16
「地獄の轟くん家 2」 (Jigoku no Todoroki-kun-chi 2) "The Hellish Todoroki Family, Part 2" Does regret matter?
Boku no Hero Academia 6 – 02
「No.5のミルコさん」 (No. 5 no Mirko-san ) "#5 Mirko-san" So far, it’s the lesser stars that are shining brightest.
Boku no Hero Academia 6 – 23
「デクvsA組」 (Deku Bāsasu Ē-gumi) "Deku vs. Class A" Who will protect the heroes?
Boku no Hero Academia 6 – 20
「刺客」 (Shikaku) "Hired Gun" There's something quite touching about watching Toshinori, formerly the most formidable hero in the land, trying to act like a parent to Deku now.
Boku no Hero Academia 6 – 08
「敵(ヴィラン)連合vs雄英生」 (Viran Rengou Bui Esu Yuuei Sei) "League of Villains vs. U.A. Students" Well, that can't be good.
Boku no Hero Academia 6 – 15
「タルタロス」 (Tarutarosu) "Tartarus" This part of the story is kind of Horikoshi’s “Empire Strikes Back” arc.
Boku no Hero Academia 6 – 19
「全力!!」 (Zenryoku!!) "Full Power!!" Now the Izuku as Luke Skywalker thing is impossible to ignore.
Boku no Hero Academia 6 – 18
「谷いずくと信楽戸村」 (Midoriya Izuku to Shigaraki Tomura) "Izuku Midoriya and Tomura Shigaraki" He’s the hero for a reason, you know.
Boku no Hero Academia 6 – 05
「破滅のボルテージ」 (Hametsu no Borutēji") "The Thrill of Destruction" Too bad he didn't hit the snooze.

Boku no Hero Academia 6 – 04
「継承」 (Keishou) "Inheritance" It isn’t always this good, but at its top end BnHA still puts those shounen pretenders to shame.
Boku no Hero Academia 6 – 06
「エンカウンター2」 (Enkauntaa 2) "Encounter 2" The odds are anything but even here.
Boku no Hero Academia 6 – 09
「爆豪勝己 : ライジング」 (Bakugo Katsuki: Raijingu) "Katsuki Bakugo: Rising" It’s all hands on deck for the hero side at this point.
Boku no Hero Academia 6 – 12
「縷の希望たち」 (Ichiru no Kibou-tachi) "Threads of Hope" A name so absurd that on anyone else it would be laughable.
Boku no Hero Academia 6 – 22
「友だち」 (Toomodachi) "Friend" Essentially, what’s critical here is not that the hero society created all the problems – it’s that it’s unable to solve any of them.
Boku no Hero Academia 6 – 25
「つながるつながる」 (Tsunagaru) No Man is an Island" Stain is utterly fascinating, this series' finest antagonist without a doubt.
