I hope this arc does something to resolve Monoma's conflict with 1-A, or at least advance it in some way. The same goes for Shinso's desire to get into the Heroics program. They're both plot points that've just sort of been dangling since the Sports Festival, and aside from some kicking-rad fights there's not a lot else to focus on this arc (so far). It's as good a chance as any for Monoma to learn a lesson or take things too far, and for Shinso to get his wish or alter course, so hopefully they'll take the opportunity to shake up the status quo instead of just revisiting these two in another year.

Monoma and Deku should become good friends, but he'll still hate the rest of 1A.

This is a great opportunity for Horikoshi to show either how far they've all come, or how much distance the class's stars are creating between themselves and their peers, and I don't think he'll pass on it.

A big issue with the Overhaul arc wasn't just the pacing, it was also that the fights were really difficult to figure out what was actually going on. In particular Suneater vs the trash trio and then the early stages of Deku vs. Overhaul where it's an endless barrage of linework. I have high hopes for the anime's adaptation of this arc even with my overall low opinion of the adaptation.

that's true, some of the fights were hard to follow. the anime could definitely fix that part at least it wouldn't help the pacing but I wonder if the girls' fight will get more screen time in the anime

Manatee Cannon posted:it wouldn't help the pacing but I wonder if the girls' fight will get more screen time in the anime I think they definitely will. The anime, whatever its faults, has shown a strong willingness to flesh out the rest of the class and show us what the manga implied but didn't have time to show. On top of that, Ochaco and Tsuyu are two of the more popular characters, and I imagine Nejire and Ryukyuu will also be very well-received.

I liked the Overhaul arc, at least being able to read it all without having to wait, but it certainly did seem pretty long and I was surprised later to learn it was like 40 chapters (about a quarter of the length of the series at the time of its completion!).It might just be that it was one of the darkest periods of the story, so it being one of the longest as well was a bit jarring by weighing so heavily on the comic's overall tone. I'm sure you all discussed this to death as it was happening, though. It sort of felt like they introduced a few too many new characters too, most of whom haven't really persisted past the arc (although that's better than trying to make them all regulars and bloat an already pretty heavy cast). Although this did raise the stakes somewhat by giving the Villain Alliance people to stunt on without suffering another Crushing Moral Victory at the hands of the heroes. The hard fight, high cost and mixed outcome did a good job of selling the idea that the post-All-Might world is struggling to keep a lid on newly-emboldened threats.

overhaul himself was also an exceptionally awful character for how much time he took up in the story even his Quirk was terrible - it was shigaraki's but better, with an extra helping of fullmetal alchemist on the side. no downsides, no drawbacks, he can just create anything and pop people like balloons with a touch while ceaselessly bitching about how much he hated Quirks in general his comeuppance was satisfying but just a tiny punctuation mark in a long and dreary story

Yeah his power wasn't all that cool, and kind of confused me since it seems weirdly similar to Eri's - he can break anything, but apparently put it back together again, and Eri's power is to rewind people, which seems to work the same as that second part so long as she doesn't slip up and wind you too far back. While we're at it, if she could wind Mirio back to before he was de-quirk'd, couldn't she do the same to All-Might and bring him back to pre-injury full power?

# ? Sep 2, 2018 08:06 |

probably, which is why i think the story's going to quietly put her in a cupboard for as long as possible

# ? Sep 2, 2018 08:10 |

wouldn't be surprised if she ended up being forced/manipulated into doing that for all for one at some point. could hurt shigaraki's arc if it happened tho

They miiiiiight be able to get away with One For All being a special quirk, more like a mantle being passed on, so she could rewind him to pre-injury and he'd be healthy and muscular but still not have One For All's power anymore. It might fall under the "can't be taken, only given" caveat that even time manipulation can't affect it. Or it might be like some of those specualtions about All For One stealing it or Monoma copying it where the quirk would start stockpiling from the beginning again instead of having all the stored power in it. It would make for a cool late-story moment if All-Might had some way to become combat-capable again, albeit not at his previous strength, if only to give Deku and him a chance to fight side-by-side for once. Not that it has to happen or anything, it's actually pretty interesting to see All-Might become Toshinori Yagi and try to become a good teacher rather than just falling back on punching, but there's enough possibilities open that I don't think they're written into a corner.

Eri is like 6 and her seemingly uncontrollable quirk can erase people into nothingness so I don't see the good guys making use of it. Even with the idea that she can eventually gain control of her quirk and help out Mirio I doubt that time will come over the course of the story.

Eri's gonna see Deku's room and start asking about all the buff guy merchandise everywhere, triggering a three hour monologue on why All Might is so amazing. Eri will then become a giant All Might fan as well and work on mastering her Quirk, which she'll be putting to use keeping Toshinori's condition stable while he's in the hospital.

Patware posted:not trying to come at you, legit curious: what are your issues with the adaptation? It's more of an issue with anime adaptations of manga in general than with BNHA's adaptation in particular, but I can't help but consistently notice all the cost-cutting and shortcuts they use to save on budgets for the fighty episodes. For example, yesterday's episode was stuffed full of extra-slow flashbacks and long shots of characters standing there with not much else other than their mouth moving. It's to the point where I watch the anime episodes at 2x speed and slow down for the fight scenes. The anime also frequently "cheats" by having a still shot but panning over it to make it look as if there's action. When there's actually fighting going on it's pretty good but the in-between stuff really bugs me, and sometimes they break up the fighting with the in-between stuff which kills the hype.
