I believe that the word you were trying to think of is "rubble"

Another good reaction, Zamber! :D I'm a long time fan of yours, and I'm glad you're enjoying one of my favorite shows of all time! There's another reason that I come out of my *quietly watching contents* cave though, and it's actually about a difference between the English and Japanese version of this episode. I would like to preface that I actually completely neutral about the whole dubs vs subs thing for this series. They both are good in their own ways, and the meaningful differences between the two keep getting smaller as the show goes on. But one thing in this episode made me want to chime in, especially since that part gets a reaction out of you. The part I'm talking about is when Bakugou was about to fire off his gauntlet. In the dub, he said "He will be fine as long as he dodges it!" On the other hand, in the Japanese version, or at least the sub, he said "If I don't hit him, he won't die!" While the two lines are similar at first glance, they actually gives quite a different reading on Bakugou's character. In the English line, by saying that "He will be fine <b>as long as he dodges it</b>!" English Bakugou, intentionally or not, places the responsibility for not getting hurt on Deku. While he might have not intended to hurt him, the one who ultimately will have to ensure it was Deku. On the other hand, by saying "<b>If I don't hit him</b>, he won't die!" Japanese Bakugou placed the responsibility of ensuring that Deku won't be blown to smithereens on himself. Thus, regardless of whether Deku can dodge it or not, he will personally ensure that, at least, Deku won't die. These differences are exacerbates by the fact that both Bakugous have a low opinions on Deku's ability, so one definitely came off as more uncaring about Deku's survival more than the other. There's actually a lot more interesting differences between the two, but I won't write down anymore since this comment is getting long. A youtuber named Explanation Point has a number of excellent videos that discuss about this topic, but I can't recommend you to watch them at this point since it contains some season 1 spoilers. Maybe when you finish season 1 later? :D Anyway, thank you Zamber for another amazing reaction! I'm near-uncontrollably excited for your reactions in the future, keep up the good work!
