I lol'ed at Twice randomly asking Toga to marry him. I love twice.

Yeah I think it's the translation that made that last part confusing but they're purposefully angering Mimic('s possible clone?) so he goes Berserk on everyone for some reason. Also Nighteye doesn't gently caress around and I loved how Deku immediately figured out it was Toga back there at the exam.

The VA is totally intending to sabotage the hell out of these losers, first by getting the floormaster to snap and get himself caught. You know if Overhaul just exists to give contrast to the new Shigaraki who has learnt of the power of evil friendship and evil trust i'd be ok with that I think.

This arc better end with Shigaraki disintegrating Overhaul, it kinda feels like the most appropriate thing.

I wonder if he'll try to trick Overhaul is fixing Compress's arm first.

I wonder if it's possible for him to bring Magne back too. That guy Fatgum fought talked about how Overhaul could blow him into pieces and bring him back over and over.

This chapter has made it really seem like the VA actually genuinely like each other. Even goddamn Shigaraki seems like he likes the rest of the VA. Little guy's growing up and learning that having friends is cool and good.

I don't think any of the bad dude crews have actually understood friendship until after Luffy decks them. They usually have a limited and rudimentary understanding that is rather selfish.

I think we'll look back on this arc with this in mind--it was less about the Yakuza, more about further character building for the VA (and to expand our view of the heroing world a little). There's been lots of neat bits in this arc, exciting new information, character building and so on. It just hasn't felt that cohesive/compelling when we're doing it week-by-week, which is a shame.

re-reading from the start deku's character growth is incredible

remember how he used to be a tiny crybaby

e: also they foreshadow shoot style with gran torino way earlier(deku looks like he's about to tag gran with a kick but bounces off the ceiling and tries to use his arms instead which lets gran dodge it)

this is a p. good manga

One thing I admit I miss is the great lil' gags like Deku crying so hard he buries into the ground or Uraraka's parents running like baboons at her but I'll bet we'll get more if the next mini arc is more lighthearted.

The official translation is out and it's understandably much better, most importantly is how Twice refers to Irinaka and Rappa. He doesn't say "Irinaka's/Rappa's Brother" he says "Big Bro Irinaka/Rappa", so even though the Rappa was a clone that doesn't necessarily mean Irinaka is. Also to burst some bubble's Twice doesn't say "let's go out" he says "let's stick together" and then later says "..my soulmate" not "be my wife".

Specifically he's calling Irinaka and Rappa "aniki" which means big brother but can be used in the yakuza to refer to an immediate senior or superior, so my guess is Twice is using it in a mocking way since he's "playing yakuza"

For Chris, now that we're into the second season, how has your understanding of All Might as a character grown, and how do you feel about him now that you've been performing him for a while.

Sabat: It's funny. I felt that I really came to understand All Might at the end of the first season. For the first half of the second season, All Might hasn't had a lot of participation, but I've gotten a lot out of the lighter, more delicate conversations that he's had. His lines have a lot of foreboding to them. Something is happening, I don't even know exactly what yet.

Twice is borrowing a yakuza affect, which apparently doesn't come off in the Mangastream translation. FA is behind right now- I think they said they were waiting until today or even further into this week to release their version of the chapter.
