If All Might really ends up kicking the bucket I could see Bakugou temporary going the villain's route.

He loving hates villains, though. In Bakugou's mind, heroes are cool and strong while villains are pathetic losers. He has never been an underdog and the very idea makes him even angrier than usual.

Don't get it twisted who your enemies are.
Bakugou rating system:
1/10 = Not blowing people up, not calling them fuckers
5/10 = Blowing people up
5/10 = Calling people fuckers
10/10 = Blowing people up, calling them fuckers.

As you can see the 10 point scale was a poor fit for this rating system but we're stuck with it for now so let's just make the best of it.

Ochako probably. I felt some sparks during that match during the tournament.

Deku can end up dating Yaoyorozu, because Yaoyorozu gives me vague Chichi vibes.

Yeah, he's like Endeavor in that he's a reprehensible piece of poo poo but unwaveringly on the side of good.

Bakugo isn't quite up to wife-beating, child-beating, and eugenicist yet.

I don't think i'd say Endeavour is unwaveringly on the side of good. Like at all.

Maybe the same with Bakugou too. He did get so mad once that he attacked someone with lethal force. It wasn't really a conscious decision, but still not a great move.

Right now Deku/Bakugou are shaping up to replicate the All Might/Endeavor dynamic in the next generation.

He also bullied Deku for years to the point of goading him to commit suicide even if he wasn't 100% serious in that. He's certainly not Endeavor bad but I think he would get there if he doesn't get better tutelage of his lovely personality. At least at Yuuei he's no longer a big fish in a small pond so he doesn't get his behavior excused so much and has to actually deal with people that are his equal.

Yeah, Bakugou is a gigantic flaming exploding rear end in a top hat, and I hope he never reaches Endeavor status. He needs to get kicked around a couple more times by his peers and be saved by them a few more than that, then hopefully he'll be less of a shithead.

Also, I can't really see anyone pairing off as of yet. Deku / Ochaco seems too obvious, but then again this IS a shounen fighting comic so who knows.

Deku/Tsuyu would be the beeeeest.

Deku x Bakugou, all the rear end in a top hat behavior was because he's a terminal tsundere :v:

Ochako x Tsuyu

Todoroki (or perhaps Jirou) x Yaoyorozu

Deku x His All Might body pillow (or maybe Mei)

Bakugou x Crushing Loneliness

Edit: Mineta x A restraining order

Mineta x Yaoyorozu is something I could see happening simply because media in general likes to stick the loser guy with the impossibly attractive woman (who may also find him initially repulsive) consistently.

She may or may not still have her quirk, though. Noumus have both a base body and extra quirks added in.

Roland Jones

On that topic, her radar quirk would be very useful in the hands of the villains; with the right power combination All For One or one of his minions could probably do something that's effectively unanswerable or at least comes out of nowhere, like a targeted alpha strike on the heroes. That may be how he answers this; a long-ranged attack quirk or something would be really nasty when combined with the ability to monitor up to one hundred people and locate their weak points from a distance.

But he can only put it in a relatively mindless noumu, right? Wouldn't that hamper it's effectiveness?

Roland Jones

"Kill all these targets" is a pretty simple command (and not everyone granted a power necessarily becomes mindless), but besides that, he takes the quirks for himself before he gives them to other people and such. If he made an in-person appearance he could just do it himself; who knows what crazy powers he's collected in the generations since he started doing this.

He can use it himself, too. I don't think a Noumu is mandatory for giving powers to either, they're just specially enhanced to take on lots and lots of quirks as opposed to just an extra one or two.

Tracking 100 people does seem much more useful for villains. Just knowing where all the local heroes (and All Might) are would be immensely useful, to say nothing of the ability to track and abduct every Yuuei student when they leave the school. Ragdoll doesn't even need to touch someone to acquire them as a target, right?

We didn't see her going around patting all the students on the head or whatever; she seemed to just be able to track them from what we saw during those chapters. Heck, assuming she was tracking them before her on-panel appearance, when the students got thrown into the forest (which seems like a fair assumption since just tossing the students into the wild without supervision would be pretty irresponsible), then she definitely doesn't need physical contact. Though that is, admittedly, an assumption. Still, nothing about needing contact was stated or shown, so I'd say "no" for the time being.

Or a Noumu is the result of stuffing too many powers into one person. We haven't seen much of All for One's face, but his lack of facial features does remind me of the Noumu a bit.

That's scar tissue. All Might blew his face off. It also looked like he blew his arms off, but a41 had arms in the same chapter as that flashback panel so I dunno.

Pretty sure All Might blew his entire head above the jaw off from what we saw.
