Even if Redestro’s power resulted in a differently flavored Strong Guy, I’m really enjoying how he’s slowly become more grotesque and physically warped as he releases his power.

having a simple or reused power is fine as long as it's presented well

I love this arc so much i wouldn't even mind going back to libertarian ice climber again but theres no way this wont be finished within 2-3 chapters please allah and all might dont give me more slice of life after this unless momo gets poo poo on one last time

The slice of life is some of my favorite parts

Slice of life as an interlude between action stuff is good and comfy. Unrelated, but I can't wait to see Kirishima and Tamaki's fights from the Yakuza arc animated. Also a lot of the stuff that kinda suffered from Hori being super sick at the time.

on page 11 the scanlations darken the chairmens face while the viz version shows all the detail and it has to be the scanlators 'cleaning' up the art by shading in anything that looks blurry from rips edit: the viz version also gives iceman a real name too drjuggalo fucked around with this message at 21:39 on Jul 7, 2019 |

drjuggalo posted:edit: the viz version also gives iceman a real name too That's still Viz leaving his name untranslated; "Geten" means "Apocrypha", and Viz has consistently used the former where scanlators have consistently used the latter. We've discussed it a few times in this thread because not everyone agrees with the decision.

I'm starting to think Horikoshi's going to give us the exact opposite of "You can be a hero" here -- what Shigaraki needed to hear from his family, who apparently tried to help him cope with his abusive dad by distracting him and telling him how he could avoid getting hurt and drying his tears after things got bad, was "You don't have to put up with this," or "You don't need to grin and bear it," or even "It's fine if you just use your power and get rid of him." "You can be a villain," basically. And then OfA presumably intervened and turned what could've been a bog-standard villain origin story into the birth of his protege.

It's the little things, but the face Re-destro makes at the end, I can really tell that he's thinking "this is going to put my hairline back another centimeter"

It just seems to me that if your primary memories of your family are times they comforted you after your dad made you cry, your dad probably made you cry a lot, or at least more than "unsupportive jerk dad" would suggest on its own.

Shigaraki's dad got abandoned by his hero mom so that may color his response to his son wanting to be a hero.

I mean, in those vague flashbacks from before, we have an adult male looking enraged/horrified down at the viewpoint character (Shigaraki) and the bloody arrow(?), plus Shiggy has kept fairly close to being a corrupted version of his proto-self from the Tenko manga, in which his father tried to outright murder him, so I'm betting on his father being a poo poo.

Looking closer at Re-Destro's design, I appreciate how the 'black mold' creates the look of him smiling, while it's actually drips over his actual mouth.

I think one of the things that really helps make all of Horikoshi's stuff so outstanding is the dynamic poses on hands. A lot of mangaka have hands as fists or open and not a lot in between unless it's the focus of the panel, whereas with Horikoshi you can look in that page alone and see almost everyone's hands doing something different. Hands are incredibly expressive and so it gives a lot of PLUS ULTRA to the characters.
