This latest episode actually introduced Kota to the series by having the enigmatic young boy make a truly standout first impression - by punching Izuku right in the crotch after Midoriya tried to introduce himself. Kota's reasoning for his surly attitude towards pro heroes has deeply meaningful roots that will be revealed later, but for now, he's giving Class 1-A hell, and we're loving it!

Kota eventually has an inevitable run-in with the unscrupulous and insatiable Mineta, while the men and women of Class 1-A are enjoying hot springs baths, with the genders separated by a large privacy wall. Mineta's realization that only a mere wall was separating him from so many Class 1-A girls in skimpy bathing suits, inspired him to scale that wall with no hesitation. That unstoppable force eventually collided with an immovable object: Mineta got to the top of the wall, only to find Kota waiting. The surly young man promptly scolded Mineta for his immoral ways, and kicked him right off the wall!

We may be living in the era of "#MeToo" and "#TimesUp" - but there's one pervert people still seem to enjoy!

...We may have spoken too soon. Some people are certainly coming from a SJW perspective, when it comes to Mineta's behavior. Kota got a lot of props for standing up for the ladies!

Certain fans of the manga are just happy to see Kota finally appear onscreen, and seem to (initially) be happy with how the anime depicts him.

Then there's this piece of crap kid, Kota, who's against heroes. I think there's more on that next week. #MyHeroAcademia pic.twitter.com/mZPAEPfDzB

Given his rough and somewhat violent introduction to the Class 1-A characters, it's no surprise that some My Hero Academia fans who have only experienced the anime, don't have all that favorable of a first impression of Kota.

#MyHeroAcademia Season 3 is off to a great start, but I already feel bad for Kota and I just hope that everything will be okay for the poor kid in the end ? #BNHA #anime

While the anime gave Kota a very humorous introduction, fans of the manga already know that a more serious and tragic backstory for the character is about to unfold. ?

In brighter news Deku and Kota is a storyline that could bring some strong character work into play for Deku. That will be good to see IF they handle it right next week. #MyHeroAcademia

Here are a few teases that fans in-the-know are already dropping. In the meantime, take this piece of advice about love, and life, that My Hero Academia has inspired:
Find someone who looks at you the way Bakugo looks at Kota punching Deku. #MyHeroAcademiaSeason3 #MyHeroAcademia #BokuNoHeroAcademia @CliffordChapin pic.twitter.com/Ruua7I9SKb
