I think it was specifically mentioned early on that if she touches all five of the pads on her fingers to a thing, it will stop being affected by gravity. So, yeah, it's like Shigaraki's power (or rather, Shigaraki's is like hers since we knew about hers first and she was what people were comparing him to when they were speculating about his power), but with levitation instead of destruction.

That's from the title page of chapter 22. The translation says she "can" remove the gravity, but I dunno if that's the correct translation or not. What does the official Viz translation say?

She deactivates it by pressing all ten of her fingertips together. I don't think there's any mental component to her power what-so-ever.

No but all her murder victims were drained of blood I think, so something to do with that.

It appears she is going to target Deku. Because he just met her creepy fetish of being beat up and covered in blood.

It's worth noting that it happened right after she drained a bunch of blood from Ochako. Given her repeated talk of becoming the people she loves it's possible the blush is related to her quirk.

She's probably interested in Deku because she's a Stain fangirl and he saved Deku's life. Also, I was hoping that fight would last a little longer. :(

Oh, and Shouji can talk out of his tentacles. That's kind of freaky.

Kaito Kid is a little outgunned here, it'll be interesting to see how he intends to play this. And a pre-emptive :lol: if Deku manages to take out three villains this arc.

I think we can safely give him partial credit for Moonfish too.

That could actually make her more dangerous depending on what her Quirk is. Putting her in a submission hold was the safer choice. Losing concentration was where she messed up.

Ever since he was introduced, I've wondered if his power is really based on teeth or if it's bone. It makes a sort of sense, if you think about it. Say you have a power that lets you manipulate your bones so you can do the stuff Moonfish can. Well, you wouldn't be able to do much without cutting a lot of muscle. Unless you limited it to your teeth, which is the closest thing you've got to exposed bone.

Dunno, dumb theory. He'll probably never show up again.

I really hope this whole plan backfires horribly. Bakugo's a poo poo head but he's still a hero. They just took Baron Explodo-kill back to their base of operations... That's not the best of ideas.

and maybe also put Tokoyami in a dark space... not the best of plans. Bakugou is an rear end but he's still a hero, and the villains will find out, hopefully soon

Still not aboard the "Bakugou may be a jerk, but he's still a hero" train, but I do think/hope there's enough to him that he won't be easily swayed by whatever the bad guys have to say.

Yeah I'd be pretty disappointed if he was convinced by anything on their side. If anything he strikes me as an antihero in the making since he seems to have his own internal sense of justice or whatever even if he doesn't conform to how he's supposed to act to be considered heroic. I could see him saying "gently caress all y'all" at some point and just doing his own thing.

What's I'm most worried about is him getting stripped of his powers by AfO. He's got an ego and it would be appropriate for him to lose his powers as a humbling experience but he doesn't have much growth to his character, really just the one fight he and Deku had with All Might. Without his quirk I can't see a place fore him in the main story without somewhat changing the tone and focus.

Bakugou hasn't done much of anything to convince me he has any sense of, understanding, or appreciation for justice, but the kid's got aspirations. He wants to be the best and he works himself to the bone to be better than everyone else.

My thought is that he'll recognize an obvious con when he sees one, someone attempting to "Use" him, and say nix to that. He'll climb to the top on his own power, thank you very much.
