The sports festival is honestly one of my favourite arcs in My Hero Academia, I always prefer when there aren't major villain battles and it's mostly just focused on the UA students. This volume also introduces one of my FAVOURITE characters ever, Shinso Hitoshi, so maybe I just have on rose-coloured glasses.

This book is so many things I can't find the words for. I don't remember when I became interested in learning more about the Mother and Baby Homes, but I knew it was what I wanted to do my history project on, which was why I picked up this book, and honestly, I think all Irish people should be required to read this. Such a dark part of 'history' is kept silent, or still greatly misunderstood, and it is our duty to never let people in power be capable of such things.

Thank you, Catherine. For this book.

My Hero Academia is one of my favourite animes, so I've been looking forward to reading the manga for ages! It's hard to just judge one volume of the manga alone, I'm pretty sure this volume only covers 6 episodes, and since this is relatively just set-up, that's why my star rating is just at average. But I'm planning on trying to complete the entire manga, and most likely my rating will go up as we delve into the dramatics.

Also manga Deku is just,,,, gorgeous ;;
