True signs of a twisted, evil person. I bet Kaminari plays D&D too.

The two strongest clues are both not actually in the manga itself: the sketch of his first design (a villainous character) and the Jekyll/Hyde face.

The only author I know that took note of fan theories to try and surprise even the most obsessive members of the audience was Andrew Hussie of Homestuck fame and it, uh, let's say it didn't go very well.

Conspiracy theories being right is fine. The way the twists happen is a lot more important than the twists themselves.

Yeah, it took me a moment to realize it. I'm trying hard not to think about how he would use it in combat, because there's really no pleasant answer to that question.

Possibilities for Tsuyu's new, more frog-like special move:

• Puking up her guts, and stuffing them back inside to paralyze her opponent with disgust
  
• Shooting baby frogs out of grotesquely swollen skin folds in her back to paralyze her opponent with disgust
  
• Eating a mouthful of bugs right in front of her opponent, to paralyze them with disgust
  
• frogs and toads are super gross you guys
  

Personally I'd like the exam to be seemingly straightforward, but actually very difficult to coordinate in practice. Save the passengers on a sinking ship, or burning building; foiling a bank heist with hostages; save the widows and orphans picnic from Terminator inflitration... Kinda like the early exam with the fake nuke but way, way more complicated. Bakugou and Todoroki would both be at a serious disadvantage in any situation where preserving noncombatants is the priority.

Heck, Stain could be argued to still be a hero in an ideological sense, if a zealot, and I doubt all these villains embracing evil is really what he wanted to inspire with his actions. I suppose it will have to depend on how he handles aqll these people turning to villainy because of their "hero."

The restrictions on the use of quirks seems to be a double edged sword. Yes, you can't just have people X-Mening all over society willy-nilly. However, the restrictions do make it tough for kids with odder or more esoteric quirks to really develop their powers. As a result, people's powers have a greater impact on their personalities than their personalities have on how they use their quirks.

Especially since the only people that society "deals" with are those who either use their quirks for heroics or those who try and break the law with their quirks. There's probably very little support for someone who has x-ray vision but doesn't want to be a doctor or work in another field where such a quirk would be allowed. Which in turns pushes kids towards quirk appropriate fields via the uncaring force of societal bias.

Twice had a duplicating quirk, but since using it to duplicate yourself is outside the bounds of societal norms, there was no support for him to deal with the results. Hell, considering how everyone gets differing strengths and levels of versatility in their genetic quirk, it's possible that Twice is the first one in a long while or ever to be able to fully duplicate himself. Everyone else with a duplication quirk might have only been able to make a Simulacrum instead of a Duplicate, which meant that they never had an existential crisis made physical.

Toga is similar. She probably has generic mimicry powers and only discovered the power of someone's blood by accident. Maybe she was in an accident with someone, or got into a fight and as a result ingested some of their blood. Maybe she had a younger sibling who got hurt and she kissed the boo-boo to make it all better. Whatever way she found out, there's very little likelihood she wasn't either initially or permanently shunned by others when she first manifested the power. Which would drive her down a more villainous path. Especially when she found out how Stain's powers worked and what he did.

With Deku and All Might being the only people we've seen to gain power after their personality was fully formed, it's interesting to see how they shape their power as opposed to how others are shaped by their power.

The whole point of that exercise was that the teachers represented villains and some got into the part more then others. The closest we have seen to anything unbecoming of a teach was her gushing over the formation of the manly friendship during the sports festival.

Am I talking about Zarbon, Dodoria, or Jeice, or the purple guy who's so unimportant that I don't even remember his name?

Mr. Fowl posted:

Another possibility for why Uraraka got the better of Toga while she's giving Aizawa trouble here: She seems like the type to play with people, and might have underestimated Uraraka. Additionally, I'd be willing to bet her focus is the hit-and-run. In a straight one on one, Aizawa would win, but tired as he is and with the environment favoring Toga...Well, you see why they're in this spot.

Or it's a manga and levels of strength and skill are inconsistent, I dunno.

I don't know how she can combine that with her gravity powers to make a finisher though

Fabricated posted:

I'm not sure how Eri getting shot up with her own flesh and blood would harm her quirk, which is that her flesh and blood destroys quirks. I guess the finished bullets might do something depending on how they work but whatever quirk-destroying antibodies or whatever the hell it is she has I dunno if even a concentrated dose of it really makes a difference?

The bullets definitely don't do DAMAGE physically- but I could imagine Mirio not wanting her to get shot with ANYTHING could play into that.

Ytlaya posted:

Honestly I'm not exactly sure how Mirio survived 5 minutes without his quirk. Like, all Overhaul has to do is shoot a bunch of spikes all around him; you can't exactly dodge that or continue moving around once you're surrounded by a forest of spikes. Or, heck, he could just form walls around him. I get they wanted to show how badass Mirio was for lasting so long quirkless, but 5 minutes is a downright absurdly long time.

But when I talked about him dominating, I was referring to before he had his quirk removed (which only happened due to a trick).
