There's no reason we wouldn't. It's going to be the capstone to the season.

When the gently caress will THIS play? Are we getting the mall confrontation I guess?

It played when Shinsou brainwashed Deku.

Jet Set Run https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EeRuRyJDLqw and Just Another Hero (theme of Endeavor) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EgIdizdNIKo

are quite awesome. Though Endeavor's theme sounds like a bit like a Deku or All Might theme.

Yeah that would be correct. The other song is also considered one of his themes cause it first played when he was being a badass against the Nomu's

Spoilers dropping.

Like, real spoilers. Black bars.

Ya'll were right. Neomata was aiming at Eri and Mirio takes the dequirking bullet for her, then gets hosed up by Overhaul just in time for Deku to burst in. For some reason I just kept thinking the framing of the last chapter's final page had Neomata aiming at Mirio.

Well, It's that anime "randomly stabbed all over" kind of thing which normally results in no real damage. If he got full-on impaled maybe.

Also I'm gonna be super disappointed if next chapter isn't just twenty pages of Deku slow-motion punching Chisaki in the face.

There's gonna be some real irony there if Mirio ends up fulfilling Deku's old dream of being a spectacular Quirkless hero.

even that's rarely enough to actually kill people in anime. especially ones with super powers like this. hell, in bleach it gave the main character a power up

called this entire situation entirely, down to deku showing up at the end of the chapter when mirio's on the ropes. feels nice after my recent one piece predictions, even if this was the most obvious way for things to go :v:

There is no way his quirk is just gone forever. I bet Eri can use her quirk to nullify the ability of her own quirk or something. This would be the equivalent of Rock Lee ending up in a wheelchair for life after his Gaara fight. Wayyy too brutal for a shonen character.

Why not? MHA already has a huge cast, and Mirio isn't even a main character. From a story telling perspective, this is a growth opportunity for Deku, and it would be squandered if everything just turns out hunky dory in the end. Not much different than Ingenium and Ida, IMO.

eh, all might was deku's ingenium situation. he barely knows mirio so idk that they need to recycle that plot point. they could keep mirio quirkless but I'm not convinced they will, and especially not for that reason

My favourite gimmick of this manga is when characters that don't have direct combat quirks (+ Deku) end up just punching the poo poo out of dudes because they had to build their strength to keep up with villains anyway.

Also, i feel lile we keep forgetting, but these are power cancelling bullets.

It didn't seem lile suneater was hurt that badly, no, but the implication is that eri's blood/skin/whatever is being put into their body. With a bullet.

He was still shot.

I dunno, it looks a hell of a lot like a dart to me. If they want it to stick in and deliver its payload instead of like shattering and just splashing the anti-quirk fluid, it must be a low-velocity round, at the very least.

Yeah it's very obviously a dart gun shooting a syringe of Eri's ~substance~ be that skin, blood, brain matter, whatever.

tho tbh, just shooting mirio would probably have worked a lot better than robbing him of his quirk

they could have just straight up killed him with a real gun. he couldn't stop the bullets from hitting him because otherwise eri would be shot instead

In fiction you can take a gun shot to the shoulder and shrug it off. I'm guessing it's just narrative thing that in a super hero comic taking away a super ability is more effective than a wound.

It's step 1. He's a lot easier to kill now that he's not flying through the ground and the walls at hundreds of miles an hour.

Manatee Cannon
Aug 26, 2010



step 1 would have been a lot easier if they'd just unloaded a full pistol clip into his back and head, killing him

yea I know they wouldn't actually do that but it does stick out to me more than it normally would when their plan is to put him in a position where he can't dodge, then shoot him

Are we sure about this? It looks like he's tanking the hell out of what Chisaki is throwing at him

ChronoReverse

This being manga, Mirio would have tanked a regular bullet and then phase destroyed them. Making him take a quirk-destroyer at least slowed him down a bit.
