Larryb posted:Has the anime ever shuffled manga events around before? Because up until now as far as I'm aware it's more or less just been a straight shot for the last four seasons. They also did a fair amount of little trims on Part 4 but Part 4 was made well before this entire model of anime. e: Oh, I think they reorganized the order of things during the Overhaul stuff but that was more like going from 1-2-3-4-5-6 to 1-3-4-2-5-6 for better flow and was usually internal to the handful of chaps in each episode.

Plus as has been mentioned, MVA probably works better as a season finale anyway since that’s the point where poo poo really starts to hit the fan as far as this series is concerned.

the season 6 opening recap episode can actually be one from the story, I think around Chapter 255 where the kids show off their new Super Moves?

I'm betting we don't get it at this point and it will come back up when it's relevant. We'll probably still get the scene of Hawks giving out the books and maybe Endeavor taking a look and getting shocked before cutting away.

Im really baffled by some of the choices they've made in the set up and recent arcs if this is the end stretch to any degree now. Introducing UA as a three year course but only seeing the first year before everything breaks down is a disappointment. Having Shinso's big test leading nowhere is weird too. If they needed more Midoriya/Shinso interactions to establish the AfO stuff, teasing Shinso as a hero course student that never ends up materializing is weird. I wonder if this was planned very differently but changed recently.

New chapter is out in the usual place, phoneposting so I can’t link  I’m getting a real “Wolverine in Madripoor” vibe from this. Pretty soon he’s gonna be telling everyone to call him Patch. I do like All Might’s tiny silhouette in the background. He looks so sad

something i've noticed about deku is that the one thing about all might he's really never been able to replicate is his smile and everything it represents in terms of lifting the spirits of those around him. now i'm not sure if that's something he'll never fully achieve, because a single pillar holding up all of society is stupid, but i really hope it's addressed in this arc, because whooo boy i feel like he's about as far away from that smile as he's ever been

Stain will attack Deku because he is an absolute poo poo who has already previously thought that the hardest working hero was the worst of them all, just because he looked mean (Endeavour).

Yeah, I mentioned the other day how ironic that is. The thing Bakugo admired All Might for the most was being the guy who wins all the time and he tries to live up to that always. But Deku always admired his ability to smile and has never managed to get close to having that comforting presence, aside from the moment with Eri. And even that ended with her nearly killing him with her powers, which probably unsettled her to a large degree afterwards.

I personally think it'd be hilarious if Stain was the one who got Deku back on the less-self-destructive path, somehow. I'm not sure how he would do it. maybe the idea of a lunatic like Stain idolizing him might be enough for him to step back and re-assess?

I still feel like Stain would be happy to talk to All Might, and it would probably gently caress him up to hear All Might lament his many failures. So I hope we do get a legit conversation between the two because All Might is in the position that he can't really just cut off conversation with "Gasp! I must stop you, escaped villain!"

Translation errors happen. Hopefully it gets fixed before being collected into a volume. Unlike that time they printed a line translated as exactly the opposite.

So something that's been bugging me since the Nagant fight—how did Deku originally mean to get intel from Nagant, and how does he know the second guy didn't know anything? Torture? Because that's the implication I've been getting, but it... doesn't really make any sense either, even with how Deku's been acting post-timeskip. Or does Deku have some kind of interrogation quirk now, like one of Overhaul's goons...?

All-for-One was betting on Deku getting to have the heroic save people moment... so he could laugh in the kid's face once it all blew up. Deku probably figured this guy didn't know anything since All-for-One was giving an intentional invite last time. If the assassin didn't spill anything, there was no reason to tell him it in the first place.

I'm hopeful that this is explicitly addressed soon, and this last chapter makes me feel like it will be. I always got the feeling before that the contrast between All Might being a larger than life, positive superhero who smiles and rescues everyone and the constant self injury, brutal fights with lasting scars and consequences and clear 90s comic edgy art inspiration was a kind of unintentional jarring clash of Horikoshi trying to marry two separate superhero inspirations in his world. It looks like we might see that fully engaged with with Deku's current state which will be nice.

We complain so much about Deku not getting swole in his spare time, but really, he should have been taking improv classes and learning street magic all along, if he wanted to be a hero who makes people smile.
