Yeah, for someone who will break all of his bones to save the day it's probably pretty alarming for the guy trying to keep him safe that he's just been handed constantly updating minimap showing him all the opportunities he has to do so.

Oooh that's going to be trouble.

Remember that chapter where Deku asked All Might if there was anyone he had failed to save? And All Might responded with "Yeah, probably thousands of people I never even knew about. That's why you have to save everyone you can physically see, to make up for all the ones you can't."

Now the kid can see everyone who needs help. Like Superman being able to hear every scream for help on Earth 24/7.

Hell, as an ordinary boring human who doesn't have superpowers, sometimes I have to just step away from anything news-related because there's so much awful poo poo going on I can't do anything about.

Danger sense being the thing All Might was terrified of Deku getting is way better writing and way more interesting than it just being another way for Deku to explode his bones.

He helped Mina retreat after she got knocked away.




I think the only class b guy we didn't check in with was Monoma, who was only mentioned in passing during the gigantamachia attack "You think Monoma's group is okay, Tokage?"

but he wasnt in any of the crowdshots or part of the action anywhere.

No. Hawks was a double agent, and additionally had no connection to the school.

Even if its translated differently the intent still seems to be he had surgery done on him to sell he was dead. Like they mentoined it more than jus the one bubble, it was a full thing to basically make him look dead and put into suspended animation




anyway jeanist is very cool and i love that he has a batmobile and i hope in proper scans it also looks like jeans.

Cleaner scans might show them larger, but those seem about the same size as here


Since he's still got the stumps they'll probably grow back eventually, but the left wing especially seemed real hosed.

e: Reread the highend fight to see how hosed his wings got there (not very, most of his feathers just burned up but they grew back within a few days) I wonder if Hawks might wind up helping Deku with danger sense. Hawk's whole deal is using his feathers to sense a million things going on at once...

At the same time it's supposed to be the future, just with a bit of a dark age associated with the initial unrest associated with the emergence of superpowers. So the idea of Hawks growing back his wings using medicine reserved for the plot isn't that unbelievable compared to everything else imo. Love the Jeanistmobile.

Related to/inspired by the speedscans, but not really spoilery: It feels like social acceptance of mutants improved significantly over the past couple decades in-universe, judging between Vigilantes, the flashbacks in MHA, and current-day MHA.

I'm wondering if the KKK analogue that the League slaughtered in the first chapter of My Villain Academia will resurface. Given how much distrust and disgruntlement towards heroes seem to be building up, I wouldn't be surprised if some of that energy got redirected into anti-mutant sentiment.
