Onmi posted:I mean it was. From lemillion destroying overhaul and the latter only surviving from his minion reversing time to heal him Thats not what happened. Overhaul kept healing himself but he was still losing. His minion shot a quirk destroying bullet at Eri, knowing that Mirio would take the shot for her, which would allow Overhaul to beat him, which he did thought he still got punched a bunch. SyntheticPolygon posted:Overhaul got unmerged from his goons by the time Deku fought him proper thanks to Eri reversing some stuff. He just turned himself into an enormous concrete monster from nearby buildings/ and streets immediately afterward. Which made him even stronger than when he was merged. Added on Deku knew not to let Chisaki touch him in that fight.

I'll have to look those up after work! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMRsxiiCw08 Overhaul is an obvious blend of classical Japanese instruments, but with a corrupted angle and modern elements. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iEGlGe9BBnk Mirio's track literally belongs to a genre called glitch hop.

Blaze Dragon posted:No way. There's still stuff to adapt, and this isn't a forever-running anime like One Piece. If it ends up too close to the manga, it can just stop for a year or so, or give a 12-episode season rather than a 24-episode one. Seriously, I'm so happy that this show has a seasonal format and the quality's as good as it is. Besides One Piece, are there any other holdouts of the old "once a week forever" format?

We are 54 episodes in and have reached Chapter 106. If the pacing stays at 2 chapters/ep, that'll get us to 122, which will cover the introduction of Overhaul, the Deku/Bakugo fight, and the introduction of the top three, but there will be no dumpstering of Class 1A by Mirio unless they get through 124.

Onmi posted:I think you forgot how the actual fights with Overhaul went, the only reason Mirio 'lost' was because he had to protect Eri from the quirk-eraser he thought was an actual bullet, before that, he literally trounced Overhaul before the man could do anything to him. Mirio's entire ability is based around NOT BEING TOUCHED, And you think Mirio not knowing that Overhaul's power is based on touching would have mattered at all, because the guy who's entire fighting style revolved around not letting himself be touched, would have let himself be touched? I feel like the most realistic outcome (that doesn't involve Deku being surprised and exploded by Overhaul) is something along the lines of "they get Eri away, but Overhaul then loses his poo poo and turns into the big monster form and murders hundreds of people as he rampages to try and get Eri back," which isn't exactly a good outcome. It also requires assuming that Deku's ability to judge a situation like this is 100% accurate, since the darker side of this is Deku potentially abducting a kid from their parent who isn't actually abusive (or one who is abusive but creating a legal clusterfuck that ends with the parent getting the kid back due to Deku's abduction).

Also, taking an abused child from their abuser isn't in the purview of a (licensed) hero, because it's not a disaster or a villainous use of a quirk. That being said, with the knowledge that they had on hand, wanting to take Eri away from somebody she was clearly afraid of is absolutely in the spirit of heroism. Both Mirio's and Deku's instincts were right.

Going back to the nice scar line, I only just noticed that Todoroki's older brother joins in with the slurping which makes the scene so much better.

I really hope the Internship/Overhaul arc is compressed a bit, because by chapters, it's pretty much enough material for an entire 24 episode season.

Todoroki (as much as he hated it) was trained by his piece of poo poo dad. Bakugou didn't really have any mentors, and even though he did spend some time with Best Jeanist, most of that was just Jeanist trying (and failing) to fix Bakugou's poo poo personality. Bakugou seems to be mostly self-taught and yet he's still one of the strongest 1st years in UA.

A proper mentor when he was younger would probably have done wonders for Bakugou's collection of complexes.

I guess I shouldn’t have said ‘no reason’. More like ‘Bakugou was an rear end in a top hat to Deku for a lovely reason that doesn’t really make his actions at all sympathetic’. Like man, that guy was a lovely kid. And a lovely teen until recently. Glad he’s finally beginning to grow up and mature.

I haven't read the manga in the while but I got through the overhaul arc and I just wanted to say now that its come up again: - Mirio living for multiple minutes after getting shot was dumb. How do you do anything as a normal human against a guy that can instagib anyone with a touch? If I remember the author didn't even show that part, just had narration saying it, because he probably couldn't think of how either. Mirio should have died or Deku should have shown up immediately. - Overhaul's quirk is op as gently caress and I dislike the idea of it existing. I feel like he could have instagibbed any hero who wasn't specifically Mirio so why wasn't he doing more crimes or something. He had no reason to be afraid of All Might and no one even knows All for One is a thing. I also feel like All for One would definitely want that quirk and would have taken it. Thanks for listening.

All Might in his prime wouldn't have to even get close to Overhaul to totally dust him. OFA wanting Overhaul's quirk would've made a lot of sense but who knows if AFO knew about him before he got his torso punched off by All Might 5 years ago.

Captain Cappy posted:I haven't read the manga in the while but I got through the overhaul arc and I just wanted to say now that its come up again: 1) Mirio's whole fighting style was taught by Nighteye, and it can be summed up in the following words of wisdom: "Don't get hit." He's an expert at anticipating enemy movements and evading them, even aside from his power, and Overhaul's quirk requires getting a hit in. Mirio keeping up evasion for so long is a remarkable feat, but that comes with being a hero in a Shonen fight manga. 2) Again, he needs to get a hit. Even ignoring Aizawa, who would have wiped the floor with Overhaul one on one, you look at the top heroes, and a lot of them have range. At minimum, Endeavor could flash fry Overhaul without any risk, and Hawks could play keep away with a feather barrage. Hell, in 1-A, Bakugo and Shoto could have been dangerous, and they're still first year students. He's got a great quirk, but as soon as it's in the open, his counters are in the open, and then Snipe detonates his skull. Knowledge is power, guard it well, as they say.

And as you say, as long as Overhaul doesn't announce his power he's got the upper hand. He could just fake surrender then instagib anyone when they walk up to arrest him. Also I forgot that he could make those spikes come out of the ground, which kind of blows the "just use ranged attacks" thing out of the water as well. I think that's why I found the whole Mirio living thing preposterous. RareAcumen posted:I agree, Deku sucks. Make Shouji the protagonist.
