Roland Jones posted:They could also conceivably improve, though; what if, rather than "attract small amounts of fire", the quirks combined to become proper pyrokinesis? It's still the essence of both abilities, and there's no reason the quirks have to get worse necessarily; after all, Todoroki's quirk is superior to Endeavor's and his mother's. The quirks may get weirder, but that doesn't mean they're going to become meaningless or bizarre over time. For everyone, at least; obviously some people will wind up with lackluster quirks, or none at all, but that's how it is already. while it is possible to get a mutated improved quirk i do believe the doctor said that quirks were getting weaker in general each generation. but yeah i like the idea thathad deku inherited his quirk he would have gotten pyromancy or maybe some ability to create rad fire armor.

She looks a lot like Todoroki's mom and uses her power very similarly to Todoroki's ice armor he sometimes wears, along with her quirk visibly giving her frost over her hair + skin while using it like Todoroki's does.

Rewatched that scene, and there wasn't any kind of indication of quirks getting weaker. He just asked if Deku's mom was a fourth generation quirk haver. Probably because somebody who came from a line of people with quirks would be slightly more likely to know that the early research showed that people with quirks didn't have the two toe joints. And could also easily verify it (if it still held) by looking at herself and any family with quirks.

If two quirkless people have a kid, is the kid quirkless? Quirks suddenly started appearing in children one day, so the resulting kid might get a random quirk, or be quirkless, or maybe being quirkless is a condition that suppresses a quirk rather than remove it entirely and they'll inherit a quirk from their parents that was simply not activated.

Quirks are X genes and the world of My Hero Academia takes place in the far future after Professor Xavier succeeded in getting homo sapiens sapiens and homo sapiens superior to live in harmony. Remember that the world of quirks officially starts with a baby born glowing, which doesn't mean people didn't have non-obvious from birth powers before.

Quirks seem very much like the X-Gene, in that two supers can have a super baby with either, both, or neither of the parents' powers. It's all very fuzzy and story-driven, in the "son of Reed and Sue Richards being a godlike reality warper apropos of nothing" sort of way. Forget it, Jake. It's comic books.

gnome7 posted:
I'm not sure if it's frost on the hair or just a weird aspect to the mutation. Todoroki's mom has pure white hair while his sibling's have flecks of red in their white hair. Todoroki himself has half white and half red hair signaling him as the "perfect" synthesis of his parents powers.. It seems to be a mutation derived from the quirk. It's preferable to being a skin-rock monster like Kouda, anyway.

ConanThe3rd posted:I always thought it was just Homo Sapian and Homo Superior? Regular humans are Homo Sapiens Sapiens, however in general use the second sapiens is dropped for redundancy since we're the only Hominid around, let alone Homo Sapiens. However if you're talking about 2 different hominids of the Homo Sapiens family, you've kind of gotta use Sapiens Sapiens.

Kouda looks really freaky and his quirk kinda sucks for heroics. He can't even use it for search and rescue because he doesn't communicate with animals, he just commands them.

For real though, it probably wouldn't kill anybody to hold off for 24 hours while we wait for the actual translations to hit. Not a huge deal but something to consider. We've had weird tangents before where worried speculation informed entirely by Korean scans was proven false once the English version came out.

Nah, it's an issue I've been meaning to address for awhile. I get that people are hyped and can't wait for the next chapter, but it can be a bit off-putting. Still ultimately harmless though so I'm not gonna slap anybody for it or anything, I'm just suggesting we could do to move away from it.

So Hands is going to try and steal Bakugou's quirk? Also, All Might just pulled in someone even closer to retirement than himself. Be careful Gran Torino. He's totally going to die in front of Deku while All Might dies in front of Bakugou.

There are comparison panels where the two of them wear similar clothes and have similar builds (which is to say average adult male). Also the fact that he's besties with All Might would give him an "in" as the spy that's been feeding the villains info. That's been the popular theory, anyway.

Twice's quirk is ridiculous so it probably has some major restrictions. Like it probably has a range limit.
