Shigaraki is just cool as hell lately. Our boy's come a long way from being bothered by his untreated eczema.

So the big bad villain that's been hyped for something like two and a half seasons shows up at the scene. But then Almight punches him in the chin 3 times and he falls down on the ground and the crowd joins in cheering and it's all over Did not expect this

All Might vs. All for One ends anticlimactically for All for One's first outing, but it's a pretty good "All Might's last stand" situation, so I get why people like it. Still cannot find it within me to enjoy Deku vs. Muscular, though.

I kinda like how the league (other than Shigaraki who isn't really himself anymore anyway) just look completely burned out, like, they're mostly complying, but they didn't sign up to follow All For One specifically and even Spinner is just doing so out of inertia. It's an interesting villain dynamic, that their victory doesn't feel "earned" and their leadership just feels completely usurped.

Hmm, this is an interesting setup Hori has going here. It seems pretty obvious that Star is doomed, but I have a hunch that Spinner's going to get her Quirk (by way of AFO). And Spinner might end up being in a position to suddenly turn onto AFO at a critical moment. We all know how much Hori loves Star Wars, after all.

All for One was heavily crippled in the same fight that All Might assumed had killed him, and of course we already know what All Might’s situation is. That said, it still takes every last bit of juice he has to put All for One down for the count. It’s really about All Night’s last stand more than anything

It's an interesting villain dynamic, that their victory doesn't feel "earned" and their leadership just feels completely usurped. Genuinely sort of more invested in Shigaraki's outcast villain squad than the heroes. The switch in focus to the main villain threat being AFO, the Liberation army, the escaped criminals, and the Nomu does a good job of managing to make the original villains still feel like underdogs even though this is supposed to be their triumph. There's a real "What were we fighting for?" vibe, a lot of genuine tragedy even for a bunch of murderous cartoon villains.

I know people say that AFO wasn't at his best in that fight, but I'd argue that, while that may be the case, the real issue is more how he chooses to fight All Might. Beyond having his face mauled off, he seems to be in pretty good shape the whole time and could've just won by sniping All Might with those concussive blasts. But he decided to go about humiliating All Might before killing him as the bigger punch man, which put him in a terrible position that allowed All Might to one-shot him.

It wasn't really a fight to be fair, it was pretty much AFO toying with All Might and then getting punked for not taking any of it seriously. I'll admit I was hoping they'd do something more interesting with the new character than it looks like they are going to.

My only thing is: AFO is a little too excited about getting Stars and Stripe's quirk for me to think he'll succeed. I mean, completed Shigaraki with the hard-hitters leftover from the Redestro crew I think should be enough to give the good guys a good final battle. Aizawa is even more limited to flip Shigaraki's quirks off and a 70% complete version of Shigaraki was basically dunking on the entire crew. Even pseudo-100% Deku I think would be pressed.

Or when Lock Rock was giving the kids a hard time during the Overhaul raid and then it revealed he just had a kid only for him to survive the raid, as well as the huge war with the Villains despite being right there were Shigaraki was! There was also the whole Captain Celebrity arc in Vigilantes, but that's a different writer, so I'm not sure it counts.

Jen X posted:I personally expect that literally nothing will come of spinner besides him getting his rear end kicked and bringing in more random flunkies for whatever the final battle is I agree with this except I think Stain is going to personally kill Spinner for being on the wrong side and feeling "responsible" for someone clearly trying to follow in his footsteps and going about it "wrong". Spinner will get some kind of dying monologue revealing a key weakness of AFO or something in an attempt to redeem himself

My call: Spinner's big thing is going to be him asking Deku to save Shigaraki because he's his friend and doesn't like AFO controlling him.
