I read the first five chapters of vigilantes and it did nothing for me

Same, the early chapters are pretty much nothing.

But the later chapters do become pretty neat and I started to enjoy it. It's not about death defying action, it's closer to slice of life, and once it finds that niche it starts to work, at least for me.

It wouldn't be for the sake of a twist, it'd be because their romance is so perfunctory that averting it would almost be a relief. Plus Horikoshi's averted shonen tropes before like "getting injured just makes you stronger" and "the mentor dies" (maybe)

To be fair, getting himself injured is making him stronger right now! And he has needed to injure himself for like half of his major fights in the series.

That's basically what OFAFC100% + Eri is. A fighting style where you constantly break everything and then it auto-heals so it's no big deal.

Yeah MHA doesn't really subvert tropes, it sometimes acknowledges them but nothing really happens besides someone saying please don't do that again.

Someone in the thread pointed out earlier that Iida at least consistently doesn't use his injured hand anymore and does all of his weird hand movements with his other hand now. Which is legitimately neat because I thought that bit was just completely forgotten about.

Deku still does as Deku does though

I won this avatar on a technicality this thick.
I was reading Vigilantes and I had a thought. Koichi's power requires him to make at least three points of contact with the ground and he does this by using his hands and feet. What I'm wondering is if he can use his knees as well because if he can, then he could be called the Kneeler.

I'm uncertain of this, but I was under the impression the three points of contact was just the only way he could reasonably expect to keep his balance.

I don't expect Bakugo and Uraraka to end up together, but if it does end up happening I'd at least be cool with it because the one big interaction they've had left Bakugo with some respect for her, and that's already leagues better than how Sasuke and Sakura were handled in Naruto.

Naruto is basically a banner case in how to give female characters the short shrift. Also apparently being essentially a stalker is rewarded.

I assume you are talking about Hinata but that isnt really what happened. Calling her a stalker is huge stretch.

The big bad is literally a woman who doesn't speak so most of her plan is relayed through her son tho.

Hello, yes! Is being very good day for posting, no?
How would you even remotely make that work, though? Like, maybe it's been too long since I've flexed my 'fanfic logic' muscles, but while Toga has a thing for Deku (insofar as she can actually love someone and not just experience a serial killer-style obsession), she's still a mentally unstable serial killer. Even beyond the problem of "She is going to jail and/or a mental health facility, what would draw Deku to her? Don't get me wrong, I love batshit fanfiction pairings, so please outline a way to do it, I just can't see it on my own.

I think she just wanted to kill him. But she is a female character in Naruto so she couldn't pull it off.

She was gonna kill him but that part of the arc had her change her mind like 5 times and she never even comes close to succeeding.

The easiest way imo would just have midoriya straight up be attracted to her and have this interfere with his ability to seal the deal when they have a direct conflict, and then build from there when you inevitably have them interact in a non-combat situation. It'd be fun because you could use this to flesh them both out in interesting ways you wouldn't expect such characters to go, since heroes rarely positively interact with such characters and stalker characters very rarely actually get the object of their affections.

I should also note that I fully think this is a terrible idea, and I only would want to see it happen out of morbid curiosity for how it would play out doing something so buck wild in a mainline Jump series.
