Roland Jones posted:Back on the manga topic, a comment I read somewhere pointed out something that's potentially bad news for All Might: All For One has Ragdoll's quirk now. It lets the user know people's locations... And their weaknesses. And All Might just so happens to have a horrible chest wound debilitating him (that we know hurts him, given his reaction to being gripped there by the Noumu at USJ). That seems like it might be relevant soon. Good money says that it was All for One who gave him that wound so he has to know about said injury.

He knows that All Might is weakened, but that is entirely different from knowing that he is powerless most of the time. In theory he could save his active period for personal defense, but that just isn't who he is. All Might is gonna use his time to go out and be a hero whenever possible.

Yeah, he gave him the injury, but the details of how that happened we don't know yet. We just know that, one way or another, he injured All Might; AFO could be unaware of just how debilitating the injury actually was and that it in particular is what's causing All Might to become weaker, or that it's still a problem for him. Besides, from a meta standpoint, a not-insignificant amount of time was spent on the fact that AFO stole a quirk that senses locations and weaknesses. That is almost definitely going to come into play at some point.

He still doesn't know that Izuku has inherited All Might's powers right? I wonder how All for One will react to that news.

So spoilers are out already and it looks like the previous OFA user was Shigaraki's mother, not father. I hope we get a flashback chapter with her at some point.

RatHat posted:So spoilers are out already and it looks like the previous OFA user was Shigaraki's mother, not father. I hope we get a flashback chapter with her at some point. Well All Might is hosed. That's him running out of time on the last page. Also huh, now I'm wondering how things went down there; presumably both of Shigaraki's parents are dead, since he's calling the hand on his face "father" and all, but did that happen together or separately? AFO killed the previous OFA holder, and he was there when Shigaraki was... Well it looks like the immediate aftermath of a parent's death but honestly given the lines of conversation we saw there we can't really say how long the poor kid was left alone before AFO showed up. Though the flashback panel here shows him with a fresh wound where that lip scar is, so I guess that's where that came from. Anyway, Magne's power was kind of neat, and AFO using it to have Toga drag all the others through the portal was clever. I wonder what's happening next; this chapter felt more like a standard shonen one in that despite a lot of action not much time passed, compared to the usual pace of the story. Not necessarily a bad thing, but it leaves me wanting more already.

Regarding Kirishima/Bakugou: Kirishima is a natural pick to be someone Baron of Explodo-Kills can have a healthy relationship with. His power is 'passive' enough that he doesn't threaten to outshine Bakugou, but also makes him tough enough that Bakugou can't casually bully or intimidate him. He can take Bakugou in stride without threatening his ego. Bakugou can actually manage a healthy relationship if you manage to neutralise his ego problems.

Seriously, All For One is doing the grand heroic sacrifice thing here, down to forcing his student to leave and telling him it'll be alright as Shigaraki yells out to him, making a grand last stand against his enemies. Why is the worst villain in history so cool? He should not be this cool.Vengarr posted:Mt Lady is a big deal! Yeah, Mt. Lady's interference was pretty great. Poor Mt. Lady.

Another cool thing that's been noted about this chapter: The 7th One for All was Shimura Nana-- nana = 7. All Might's last name has the character for 8 in it, and the second character in Izuku can be read as Kyuu, which means 9.

So is All for One saying he wants to be some kind of benevolent dictator for the good of humanity and All Might and his predecessors are the real bad guys for standing in the way of that?

Radish posted:So is All for One saying he wants to be some kind of benevolent dictator for the good of humanity and All Might and his predecessors are the real bad guys for standing in the way of that? I think it's more that All Might built his reputation on crushing people who were his friends and comrades. He may or may not be making a higher-minded point about it, but he's basically saying "you hurt people I like and got famous for it, so gently caress you", if you want to boil it down. Anyway, this isn't looking good for All Might. Besides being at his limit, there's a lot of people up and about thanks to the commotion and the buildings being crushed. If he doesn't just get killed here, he could be seen like this, the way he almost was at USJ. And this time, Cementoss isn't here to make a convenient barrier for him.

MangaStream translation is up already. Edit: Also, something interesting: "Nana" is also "seven" in Japanese, and she was the seventh holder of OFA. All Might's real name, meanwhile, is "Yagi Toshinori" according to the data book, and "Yagi" has the character for "eight" in it apparently. Then we have Midoriya Izuku, the last character of "Izuku" being the same as that for "nine". ...And we just so happen to have a "Shimura Tenko" as well. (Probably meaningless but someone pointed it out elsewhere and I felt like posting it here.) Roland Jones fucked around with this message at 20:26 on May 19, 2016 |

I have the feeling that he can't kill the current holder of OfA or take the quirk from them, while it's being transferred. The same would go for whoever the quirk is being transferred to. It would probably gently caress up the process somehow and simply destroy the quirk outright.

Fabricated posted:The mood will probably be sadder/darker for a period of time but what with this being a shounen and given Horikoshi's writing style I doubt it'll really get that grim for the kids. Until Jeanist's possible death, I think the only death thus far was the winged Noumu (that may or may not have been Bakugou's childhood friend) getting part of its brain carved out by Stain. All Might probably isn't making it too the end, though, and All For One might bite it too actually, so the death counter might start counting up a lot faster soon. Gran Torino isn't in the best spot either just by virtue of being so old in a shonen series, really. As for the students, apparently Jirou and Hagakure are still hospitalized due to gas exposure, though I don't think they'll actually die from that. I wouldn't be surprised if none of the students died by the end, though at the same time I wouldn't be surprised if some did too. It could go either way.

The awkward situation with the nature of Midoriya's powers is that he pretty much requires mastery (or close to it) of OfA in order to combat the Big Bad (since the Big Bad, whether it's AfO or Shigaraki, needs to be a threat to hero society as a whole), but mastery of OfA also renders pretty much every non-AfO villain trivial (and that's given a weakened All Might!). It'll be quite a while until that ever becomes an issue, though. And there are definitely conceivable powers that could prove dangerous to All Might, even though we haven't been shown any other than AfO (or stuff made by AfO).

i dont think that the AfO/OfA conflict can sustain a 400+ chapter mainstay Jump behemoth. and shueisha is pinning its future on MHA. they want another big drat series. you can always introduce a stronger villain, and its gonna happen eventually imo
