I just had the worst thought about a future anime adaptation. If it had come out in a time when 4Kids could license it, they'd probably make Tsuyu French, being a frog.

So they're trying to ice All-Might because He inspires people to be heroes? or was that just something Deku thought and dismissed (IE: "Like I'd know!")?

He's a shining example of a hero and also a hero who has never been beaten. Other heros look up to him and also know if they ever went villian they'd have to fight him.

Well, they keep calling him the "Symbol of Peace"; maybe they're trying to shatter the peace he keeps. He is a deterrent against crime and a major factor in the current state of the world all on his own, after all. Multiple people, himself included, seem to believe his death or his reputation being taken down a notch would result in really, reallt bad things happening.

Actually, Grapeboy's powers are the best. I love weird powers that are surprisingly versatile even though they come off as seemingly useless at first glances -- that's what was fun about Hunter X Hunter's nen powers sometimes.

Grapeboy's hardcore. He threw so many grape balls his head started to bleed, just like he said it would. Very metal.

He'd likely be pretty seriously dangerous in close quarters, give or take a bit of martial-arts training. If he tags someone in the face with a ball, they're blinded and probably about to lose the use of one of their arms as well (because who wouldn't try to get sticky purple goop out of their eyes when there's a superhero beating on them?).

I wonder, considering his idolization of All Might, if he is just picking state names at random to name his powers. I wish he got more elaborate with it, though. "Washington Crossing the Delware!" "Idaho Mash!" "Nevada Roulette!"

Delaware is shaped kind of like a finger I guess. It's long and thin and Deku's attack had similar properties.

It's delaware because it sounds cool (and it's funny to have all attacks named after US states/cities) you giant spergs.

Otherwise I fear the Florida smash.

Considering it's Florida, it should include a hint towards dying a natural death.

I like Tsuyu way more than the supposed heroine. But then, I like pretty much all of the side characters more than the non-All Might main cast. Bakugou is annoying, Deku is a cliche, and Uraraka is boring. However, I do like it when people point out how Bakugou is actually acting like an idiot child all the time and wasting his natural talent.

Obviously, that's why it'd be the name of his farewell attack.

Although it could lead up to him then living out the remainder of his time in his normal body. With a different name. But the same (more or less) hair.
