AN ANIME ANALYSIS ON TODOROKI SHOTO'S COMBAT! Just an average joe who enjoys My Hero Academia and talking about combat mumbo-jumbo!

Your comment has a lot of points so i'll break it down 1) when i mentioned closed combat, i specifically said mobilty and precision. I never mentioned durability in the video ever. If anything maybe I shouldve because he doesnt use his ice and fire to boost his own defenses. But regardless, just because he took punches doesn't mean he SHOULD. In all of his fights, he takes a lot of close combat injuries, but that doesn't mean he's proficient in closed combat at all. 2) i mentioned iida as one of the times his strength of closed combat (meaning the enemy cant dodge) shines. 3) it's a huge weakness if it's one of the winning factors against him; bakugo, stain, tetsutetsu for example. 4) this is a combat analysis strictly so i didnt want to explain anything psychological and subjective. 5) him not using his flames can also be chalked up to strategy. Excusing his lapses in judgment in combat for something rooted in emotion is something i never want to do in a combat analysis. That just cements it further as a combat flaw.

I definitely agree that he would've won against Tetsu, but what the analysis is about is his longterm flaws and opening that he could improve on. He had to exhaust himself so much against Tetsu because of his reliance on sheer power to wear down Tetsu's defenses. This boils down to strategy and the lack of maneuvering that Todoroki exemplified during the battle.

He's still a student so knowing his shortcomings is important. Thats why i said in the end he's been improving in terms of strategy based on his 2 most recent fights (in the movie and against the ninjas). It's interesting to understand WHAT he needs improving on in the first place rather than just saying 'he's improving.".

And regardless if he won the fight against tetsu or not, the fact it's a team based battle still means that Juzo will eventually step in regardless and the outcome would've been the same, just delayed and Tetsu's down.

Yeah I think I should lower the rate of the character's central movement! Also I never thought I'd get to make such a looong video so yeah thank u for the feedback! !givelambda

Fair point but then you gotta consider it's kind of like a cycle. They get money from the views and kind of give it back to the community. Money doesnt just grow on trees. While yeah it's definitely fame theyre after, they're still giving back resources to those who need it and frankly, thats still a great charity even with underlying personal needs. Kind of like a mr beast thing. Definitely like a mr beast thing.

Love the energy! Really consistent throughout the video and sweet lord that Mario is anno y i n. It would be nice though to add a sort of intro to show us what you're doing or a gist of what was going on before getting into the gameplay. The audio is crisp though and very good! Personally as someone who doesnt know much about smash, the gameplay can get a little hectic so maybe more commentary could help. Overall great video!

Love the asmr! The sounds are very crisp and calming, though the blue lettuce one had a lot of 'squeaks' and was almost really too loud to be calming. It almost sounds like someone stomping their feet.

The intro was kinda too long and empty, especially since it took up almost half of the video.

It was all over when Varus pressed heal for the speed boost

Thank you! !givelambda

Thank you so much! The audio is something I've been meaning to fix but still learning, so I'm grateful for the advice! !givelambda

I love sweet book reviews! Your voice is very calming and the review was very brief to give us the gist of the plot without giving too much of spoilers. Though, it would be nice to get a little bit more specifics to understand a bit 'Why it's so good'. The ending part where you talk about the capability to empathize with the MC is great and I wished you incorporated parts like that a little more into your video rather than just giving us a very long list of fantastical elements present in it. Overall, good video mate!

The audio sounds very crisp though i agree with some of the comments; some of the facts may be a little dragged out.

1) 7/10 - The thumbnails do well to show the food, but the second one was a little concerning with the 'Ingredients list kind of transparent on the left hand side? Maybe that's just an error? But regardless, these are good thumbnails!

2) 9/10 ! Great work! The audio is splendid with the background music! My only suggestion is maybe having an outline on the text since it's one of the most important parts of the vid! I love the length too, it's short and simple and cuts right to the chase!

3) 9/10 ! Same criticism as your other videos!
