Overview:

Preparing for Narufest proves to be a challenging task. Will teamwork be what gets everyone to the finish line?

Our Take(Spoilers):

I’ll get the minor silly things out of the way first. Koichi is pretending to be Pop-Step’s manager to be her emotional support for the event. She might be regretting that choice now because Koichi can’t seem to keep his foot out of his mouth. There is a band leader and a dance captain who fell in love at first sight, and the dance captain decided to cut her hair. The band leader was waiting for the right time to say something to her, but Koichi just opened his mouth and said the first thing that popped into his head.

Meanwhile, Knuckleduster is continuing the search for his daughter. It seems like that search is over. It turns out that Hachisuka is his daughter, which only raises more questions. Is she possessed by something? Did her quirk suddenly manifest, changing her attitude? I have no idea, but it does make the plot a lot more interesting now. The fact that she’s working with All for One means that there might be more opportunities for crossover with characters we know. We got a sample of that with Present Mic and Midnight showing up for the Naruhata event.
