I was a bit confused how it was more a heavy Todoroki episode than a Hibiki one, but I really like the no-nonsense attitude towards powering him up. He doesn't need any fancy gadgets, he trains and he gets stronger. Just awesome.

I'm still not really enjoying the Asumu stuff (I get the point of it, but the fact he's such a dull and charmless character does not make for good watching) but the rest of Hibiki has really hit its stride for me now. Sucks that the writing change is coming up soon - when is it again? 32?

Episode 30 is the start of the Inoue era. It's the first episode to do away with Asumu's introduction and it debuts the new douchebag character, Kiriya.
