Interesting note about Differences in Scans VS Official RE: chapter before last. Spoilered just in case for the newbies.

So on the way back from Tartarus, in the scanlations I believe All Might's cop friend says something like 'I wasn't allowed to take notes, but about my meeting with Stain...' Whereas in the official translation, he says 'It'll be a lot of paperwork, but how about setting up a meeting with Stain?' I thought that was a particularly interesting and big difference, the kind of thing that can really mess up or influence fan theories the way the Venom Chainsaw issue in chapter 1 did. I really want to read the original Japanese though, to see what the wording was to cause two completely different readings.

It's intentionally vague.

As a kicker, Fallen Angels translated it differently from both of them. It could be either of the three.

Korean seems to be going along the same lines as official translation version but keeps it vague by having the cop not finish the statement.



Something along the lines of "I couldn't arrange (or organize) it because of the procedures, but what should we do about the meeting with Stain?"

Only the sentence is cut off. Also what 'it' is is not stated outright, but given the sentence its probably implying the meeting with Stain.

Also the Korean version made a typo and called him Sting instead of Stain.

Also why is there a villain in your team.

I do appreciate him a lot, this is just Sports Festival Arc Deku that can't do a whole lot

Also Mudsdale had Stamina and Muscular seemed to fit with the ability (increases defense every time he's hit)

Maybe if I do another playthrough I can get a Politoed and name it after Tsuyu

Next chapter by the sounds of things! All Might told Deku to meet him at his house after the day's classes. I really like how Gran Torino helped Deku become stronger. Instead of just increasing the limit on how much One For All Midoriya can handle I thought the explanation that he wasn't using his Quirk like other people was clever. It makes sense too because All Might wasn't fighting at all like Midoriya whenever we saw him in action.

You should have named the Mudsdale Ingenium because Iida also has high horsepower.

I read the explanation chapter during lunch and I am so dumb for not working out what All for One would be. I think there is a another new reader here so I'll use spoilers from here. Really cool concept and I liked One for All being created by blending two Quirks like that. I wonder if this guy is going to pass everything on to Tomura or if he has a body stealing Quirk or something.

Yuuga probably features in most of my favourite jokes I've seen so far outside of "I have handcrushing demon inside me". I loved the headshots of all 40 obstacle race winners and he's dying of stomach cramps in his while trying to look dashing.

e: Also the volumes did a reasonable job explaining it but could anyone give a longer explanation of Deku's name. I get that it means "can't do anything" or something similar and is an alterante reading of Midoriya(?). I'm not too clear on what Uraraka says about it though. Thanks in advance!

The 'Izu' in Izuku can be read as 'De'. Deku being something like wooden doll or block (I forget), but understood as blockhead, worthless, what have you. So when Bakugou the youngest was learning to read, he saw that 'Izuku' could be 'Deku' and well, history from there.

As for Uraraka, I can only assume one of three things: one, that she saw it as a kind of ironic nickname or it's something to do with the Kansai accent and I'm not getting it. The third, of course, being that she's bright, cheerful, and chatty enough to assume that the straightforward insult want.

I've never been a big fan of Deku as his superhero name. It works okay now, but it's going to be kind of weird when he's a demigod like All Might who can destroy buildings with the shockwave from his punches. It's kind of hard to sell that as something like "an underdog doing his best", regardless of what he looks like.

this series is also ripe for manga spinoffs. they have a ton of really cool characters. like most manga has a cool character or two that would have their own story, but they legit have a lot of material to do spinoffs and 1 shot stories with this

It's silly that Midoriya got no offers other than Gran Torino after the school sports day even if like Mineta said his style is super dangerous to himself. "Hrm that kid flicked away Todoroki's giagntic ice tidal wave with one finger, lame!"

nobody wanted to be the guy getting a call when that kid broke his leg or something. they probably all just figured they could make an offer next year when he had a bit more control over himself.

That's a good point! Still though I feel he should have gotten a couple! Not a huge issue really though it just seemed a little silly.

Just wrapping up the end of year exam arc I really like how they all passed their tests so far. Deku is so great going back to punch All Might so he and Kacchan could pass together. It is shameful and disgusting tha All Might came fifth in the popularity poll.

e: The chapter mentioned an anime and a spin-off?
