Did we actually see Stain kill someone (honest question I don't remember) and not just try? Also the new girl Himiko is said to be a serial killer. I don't think they've said if Shigaraki has killed anyone but the writer could easily say that he has if he needed to.

So yeah couldn't they just say that Shigaraki killed so and so if he needs to be a killer? It certainly seems like he has no real issue doing so if he was going to murder those two recruits just for being annoying. Also that doesn't seem fair that Sero failed when he saved his partner with a quick reaction and then his quirk was instrumental in allowing him to succeed (unless that was just included as a comedy bit)...

When it comes to failing a class or a test, a 50 is for all intents and purposes virtually indistinguishable from a 0.

Ytlaya posted:I think Shigaraki's strength comes more from his skill than his quirk. Like, the fact he managed to catch Aizawa means that he is incredibly skilled, and having great skill combined with his quirk makes it far more dangerous. Oh, yeah, I was talking about his quirk alone. Physically the dude's probably one of the most fit we've seen, not counting (or in some cases even counting) people boosted by their quirks. Stain was one of the few who seems even more fit, though Stain actually being armed might have helped their fight too as well as Stain probably being vastly more experienced, being a vigilante serial killer versus a weird hikikomori crime lord. As for whether he's killed anyone, that's hard to say, but it's certainly not for lack of trying. I mean, he would have destroyed Tsuyu's face if Aizawa hadn't stopped him, among other things (like, most recently, trying to kill Himiko and Dabi). Stain and Himiko are both confirmed murderers meanwhile, as people said already. Radish posted:Also that doesn't seem fair that Sero failed when he saved his partner with a quick reaction and then his quirk was instrumental in allowing him to succeed (unless that was just included as a comedy bit)... I still feel bad for him there. He only got caught getting Mineta out, so had he not done that Mineta would have failed, by the standards they're applying to his grade here. They're basically saying that he should have let Mineta get taken out so he could have beaten Midnight himself. That said, I think he should be able to catch up. I don't remember where he placed academically, but he's proven to be pretty capable physically; he did well in the tournament until Todoroki froze half the arena in a fit of emotion, and he won that race the class had. He should be able to pull himself up out of the hole he's (rather unfairly) been put in. Roland Jones fucked around with this message at 20:07 on Nov 24, 2015 |

Rereading the series made me appreciate Sero a whole lot more. He may be a designated support character according to Kohei's notes, but he seems like a real fun guy.

Bad Seafood posted:It's not a perfect analogy but you probably understood what I meant. I didn't, but I probably misunderstood the context. I thought you were talking about the test in conjunction with the written test in passing/failing the class or getting to go to the forest lodge. I was thinking they might have noted Sero's power use and evaluated him better even though he failed to meet the actual goal. But I missed that he is still in the group that is going to receive harsher training for failing, so you are right.

Thinking about it, is there anything that separates Sero from just being a very specific and under-powered version of the creation girl?

He is probably going to be highly trained in the specialized use of his one creation, which he already has a suit to accommodate for. Whereas creation girl is going to be more versatile but won't be able to do the type of specialized stuff with any given thing she creates.

I imagine he can create the tape way, way faster than Yaoyorozu can create material. I doubt Yaoyorozu could create stuff so fast that she could Spiderman around with it. edit: also Sero seems to be able to project his tape, while Yaoyorozu just seems to be able to make stuff come out of her body (but not shoot it out).

She and Todoroki got in on special recommendation without having to take the entrance exam because their quirks are hella OP and they're both top of the class so presumably they did well in their previous schools. Yaoyorozu's quirk is probably one of the strongest in the series, theoretically, but it all depends on how it's used. Sero's has significantly less going for it but it's still a useful one to have, for sure. TriffTshngo fucked around with this message at 20:49 on Nov 24, 2015 |

Something else to consider: Sero placed 17th in the class on his written exams so he really needed to knock the physical portion out of the park.

Sero is like spiderman but he shoots out of his elbows and presumably can't by himself stick to walls. Man, I bet handy probably accidentally disintegrated his folks. Or purposely. I dunno. I forget how powers manifest in this world.

Present Mic was born with his and caused his parents and the doctor delivering him to bleed from their years. Kirishima got his when he was a kid (3, I think?) and that's how he has his scar.

You'd think Bakugou would be a tad more curious that Midoriya suddenly has a quirk after correctly realizing that him suddenly having one made no sense.

Does anyone other than the Midoriya family and their doctor actually know Deku shouldn't actually have a quirk? Otherwise they can just claim extremely late-bloomer.

sero shouldn't have lost to midnight so easily. iirc, she wears nearly nothing cause the sleep gas exudes from her skin, and sero's tape is relatively air tight, so he should have tried to wrap her up immediately to stop the gas from escaping her prob why he failed

I don't know if he has the level of control to wrap someone from the distance necessary or without taking a single breath. Wrapping someone in airtight adhesive is also probably not considered heroic.

Sero could've used his tape to avoid breathing in Midnight's sleeping gas the same way Mineta did. I mean, not indefinitely, but he could certainly cover up his mouth and nose, attack, retreat, tear off, re-apply, etc.

By that measure, I'm surprised that Uraraka/Navel Lazer didn't fail since they only succeeded because #13 wasn't actually trying to kill them and shut off his ability when Ururaka got sucked in giving her time to CQC him into the ground. But that might be too harsh a criteria at that point.

He wouldn't even need to wrap her completely to reduce her effectiveness. Remember, she used to go naked (or close to it to maximize the effectiveness of her quirk). Just by covering her more he reduces the effectiveness of her quirk. Combined with Mineta's ability to pin her down and he is her worst nightmare in a number of ways.

Hell, sero could have tried to throw her like he threw mineta. There really is no excuse for him getting in range of her gas attack either, since nothing they had seen of her quirk beforehand indicated she had any ranged abilities at all. Basically, midnight was at a huge disadvantage to both sero and mineta's quirks, and sero was effectively "killed" during the test so that's why he failed
