ZepiaEltnamOberon posted:Does All Might have a hero office? The first time you see Shiragaki in the bar he's reading a newspaper that says All might shut down his hero office to work at UA for a while. At least in the anime. I don't remember if you can actually read the paper in the manga.

What did All Might's agency even do? Take care of All Might's PR? Store all his fan mail?

All the active professionals we've met so far are part of an agency--wouldn't be surprised if they encourage that and discourage "lone heroes". It's easier to send the bill for all the damage if there's an office number, after all.

I would imagine that being tied to some sort of agency is a requirement for heroes simply for liability reasons, yeah. It's really hard to regulate a bunch of masked, costumed vigilantes without them having a registered point of contact. People like Ingenium and Endeavor leverage these mandatory agencies to recruit sidekicks and probably do endorsements and sponsorships and stuff; All Might lived out of his agency and never took any sidekicks or anything like that so he probably just used it as a glorified PO box.

People admiring Stain isn't that weird. Aside from stuff like people thinking dudes like Kira and the Punisher have the right idea, people have admired horrific serial killers in real life because of their charisma or weird philosophies.

From what has been seen most people even if they thought Stain was cool don't agree with him. We have only seen 4 followers of Stain. Dabi seems to believe in Stain's ideals. but we don't know too much about him so why he admires Stain is unknown. Spinner spouts off Stain's ideals, but appears to simply be a fan boy who thought Stain was cool. Mustard does spout a bit of Stain related stuff, but he mostly seems to be bitter about his lot in life, rather then believing in Stain's ideals. Toga does not give a poo poo about Stain's ideals, and became one of his fans purely because of his appearance in the video and her insane fetish.

stain's message was essentially "gently caress the system, man. oh but that one guy everyone likes is cool". then he was caught on video saying that stuff while being a total badass. dude was a complete nutjob, but in a way that would appeal to dumb kids.

Roland Jones posted:Yeah, like, Stain is a no-joke murderer. He was murdering heroes for not being heroic enough. He tried to kill Shigaraki when they first met and seemed to be planning to finish the job after he was done in Hosu. There's nothing stopping him from murdering villains beyond him being in super-ultra-high-security jail where he seems to be not even allowed to move.

Not off the top of my head, but killing indiscriminately sure, Lobo comes to mind. Stain's gimmick after all wasn't simply murdering heroes, so it doesn't fit to narrow the thesis to that degree.

Most people are unaware of the Marvel hero Gunisher, an anti-hero who went around killing vigilantes like the Punisher because they were giving heroes a bad name.

Stain likely has a weird relationship with villains, after all, you can't really have "Heroes" without them.

Psychologically Stain could especially hate flawed heroes due to hypocrisy and whatever tragic backstory he probably has. But he could rationalise it to himself by saying villains aren't important right now compared to heroic corruption, and the remaining problem will solve itself if we can get better heroes.

Darth Walrus posted:Marshall Law and Lobo? I looked up Marshall Law. He hunts down Heroes who have gone Rogue and become evil and such. I can't really consider Lobo an Anti Hero as the dude is a horrible person, who is more often a villain then he is an ally to heroes. Even then he still fights bad guys because he is more or less neutral being a bounty hunter.

Bakugou calmly accepting All Might's refusal to tell him the secret about Deku is at least as dramatic as All Might and Deku crying together.

Dekumom is the best mom  The fake out with Deku running away was perfect. He got his first fan! I can't wait to see Kouta show up for his first day at UA at the end of the series.

The discussion in this chapter didn't really make a lot of sense to me. It just came across a little flat. In particular the line "Things at UA are clouded in insecurity... and at the moment we are powerless to change that. However, we heroes are doing everything we can to change that!" bothers me a lot. Like yeah the easy answer is "mangastream gonna mangastream" and I know that's a sentence that can be fixed with some different wording but the way it reads is really contradictory and uninspiring, even disregarding the awkward phrasing. All Might is essentially saying "Don't worry we got this. Trust us. No really, we super got this for realsies." and she's like "well okay i guess"

She's saying alright because she loves her child and realizes that there's nothing that could make him happier than being with his personal hero, who in turn is speaking as if Deku is the greatest thing since sliced bread

TriffTshngo posted:The discussion in this chapter didn't really make a lot of sense to me. It just came across a little flat. In the Korean translation, All Might emphasizes that the fact that people feel insecure about / have trouble trusting 'the UA of the present' is an unavoidable fact, and that the heroes of UA are seeking to make changes because they realize the current situation is unacceptable. The Mangastream translation makes it sound like the school itself is in disarray, while the Korean translation is more about how people currently perceive UA, what with the many scandals it has undergone. He's saying that it can't be helped that people currently don't have confidence in UA, not that this perception (or the school if you follow Mangastream's translation) can't be changed. So he's asking her to shift her perspective from the UA of now to the UA of the future. When in doubt, blame Mangastream. It's not her just going "okay", there's a lot more gravitas in what All Might is saying because he is pretty much the greatest hero in the world and a living legend. His words carry far more weight than most, and the dude's bowing down before her. And like other people have said, she's doing this for her son, and Deku's heartfelt words reached her as well.
