Becks, Kels, and Kirby are back to recap and discuss The Necromancer's Fate. This chapter is stressful one for sure as we finally get to see what Ochako has been up to, especially since it's out of the frying pan and into the fire for her. Although Dabi has been bad enough, everything gets much, much worse when Shigaraki makes an appearance. We get some insight into necromancy and what he's been planning, as well as a earth-shattering revelation on events that have already passed. 

Becks, Kels, and Kirby to (finally) recap and discuss Two Bakugous. All aboard the angst train as we explore the emotional aftermath of Bakugou landing in Japan. Poor Katsuki can't understand why everyone is being so nice to the feral version of him, Bakugou literally can't get by two minutes without being drowned by the grief of his losses, and Mina and Eijirou just want to 'mother hen' both of them. Sorry for the unexpected hiatus everyone, we'll be uploading new episodes with new chapters from here on out!  

Becks, Kels, and Kirby to recap and discuss The Quarry.  Even already knowing what happens during (and after) this chapter, it was still very, very stressful. Why can't Hawks just not be a cryptic asshole for once? Imagine all the pain that could have being avoided if Ochako just trusted him even a little bit. Character motivations are revealed, old slights are repaid, and Ochako is forced to go Plus Ultra after an undeterminable amount of time spent wearing herself thin, like butter spread over too much toast.

Becks, Kels, and Kirby to recap and discuss A Bitter Reunion. It starts off cute and sweet but gets real traumautic, real fast. To no one's surprise except for all the UA students, Prince Bakugo (or as Denki dubs him, Middle Earth Bakugo) lands in Japan after Ochako's heroic sacrifice in the previous chapter. And the rest fo the chapter is just layer upon layer of pain for all parties involved. Everyone say 'Thanks, Kirby' because she really delivered the angst with this one.

Becks, Kels, and Kirby to recap and discuss The Angel of Death. There is quite possibly one of the best action scenes in all of fanfiction when Bakugo and Midoriya fight on the glacier, and we finally get to see a bit of our favorite demigod's true power. And then... The infamous bathtub scene. Ochako takes control and slays us all (Bakugo included). It's fluffy and hot, and the perfect calm before the storm. 

Becks, Kels, and Kirby to recap and discuss A Long Overdue Talk. We get to see Midoriya process the heavy events of the previous chapter, and decide to stop living in fear of what's to come. But instead of immediately jumping the object of his affections (Ochako, we're looking at you), he decides to go for breakfast, followed by a deep convo with Bakugo, and finally, a not-date-date with Todoroki. And with that, we finally learn what happened between them before, and why Uraraka was so angry with Midoriya. It's a fun, fluffy chapter with a big heaping of angst!

Becks, Kels, and Kirby to recap and discuss The Breaking Point, and it's a rollercoaster of a chapter. Ochako and Deku discover the story of a former Marked One, and along with them, we feel her predecessor's pain. But that's not all folks! We also get a heaping dose of existential angst on top of that, which results in Ochako deciding to take her fate into her own hands and with that: THE BURN IS FINALLY OVER.

Becks, Kels, and Kirby to recap and discuss Freefall, with a very special guest! This chapter is one that Kirby has been looking forward to writing for so long, and one that she had spoiled for Becks and Kels (accidentally). STILL, even with insider knowledge, it packed such a punch. We're basically screaming the whole episode because Kirby does horror and suspense so well, and the ending! Lastly, lest this summary also devolve into screaming, everyone pour one out for the baddest bitch in Kirin. 

Becks, Kels, and Kirby to recap and discuss The Secret. Not going to lie, it was hard coping with the secondhand embarrassment as Ochako struggles to process the big reveal of Mitsuki as the goddess. Thankfully, we get some sweet Kirishima friendship moments before Ochako is forced to face Bakugo and discuss what she learned.

Becks, Kels, and Kirby to recap and discuss A Sharp Reminder, alternatively titled: Ochako and Bakugo are hypocrites and suck at communication. We're still reeling from the reveals in Chapter 28 and we get to see how all the characters are coping. Todoroki would literally kill for Ochako, Uwabumi gives us some quality roasts, Kirishima is under the impression that this is a KiriKacchako story, and we get to meet Mirio and Tamaki! In the midst of all the excitement, Ochako and Bakugo don't know how to act and it takes a super spicy encounter for them to stop being idiots.
