Like sure pretty much anything will come to his aid, but if my power were reliant on the right animals being around, I'd bring my own.

I think that was definitely the best Illegals chapter yet. Iida's brother had great chemistry with Crawler so I'm actually looking forward to the two interacting more(and the eventual...well, you know). I was kind of "Ehhh" on the spinoff until this chapter, it really sold me on it if they can keep this up.

Nah, if he briefly got over his fear of insects he could make them crawl into robot joints or whatever (and insects are basically everywhere). Though the fight against sound guy seemed to imply it was his first time getting over his fear of them (and it's a little morbid to kill robots by letting this squish up a bunch of insects in their joints).

Those robots are large and have lots of gaps. He could simply ask mice to chew up wires from the inside. There's no need to ask them to mulch themselves.

He thought he had to limit himself to bike speeds because he couldn't stop himself all that well so he was scared to really push it because of that. As a mobility quirk, it might just be incredibly overpowered; he's already maneuverable as hell, and if it turns out he can go exceptionally fast, he could be one of the best speedsters out there.

Kyte posted:I'm not saying that's wrong, but it's about he perceived it. And in that lens it wasn't a great power. Going fast without having means to control it isn't very useful or heroic. And the goofy pose he has to take means devalues its cool factor relative to his standard of heroism. Oh yeah, definitely. What I like most about his character is that he's the reverse Deku since he started off with a quirk but he's just so unheroic in every sense that he never really does anything with it, nor get anywhere near using it effectively, despite wanting to be a hero. But now we're seeing him slowly start becoming more and more heroic, and it'll be interesting to see where he ends up.

You could do a really sad story with Hagekure where she somehow becomes visible temporarily and she suddenly realizes she has never known what she REALLY looks like, and she doesn't want to become invisible again but inevitably must.

Hagakure has to go undercover to infiltrate the villains. The only way to do this is to become temporarily visible

My personal idea is that her actual qurik is the light manipulation but she has a body that doesn't refract light for that in the same way Bakugou has unnaturally tough palms so he can actually use his quirk.

Stallion Cabana posted:I'm pretty sure she's only invisible because she wants to be because she likes being naked. I don't think Hagakure has ever talked about herself, much less her quirk, minus minor lines like wanting to stand out more. That said I want this to be the case just because it'd be so drat funny for the gag to have gone on this long only to have been a choice the entire time. The only part that makes me wonder if how early she decided she wanted to live that way, since to be able to keep her quirk active and herself invisible even while asleep has to take a considerable amount of effort and practice.

Hagakure is actually too small to be seen with the naked eye & makes use of her powerful telekinesis quirk to give the impression she's full-sized but invisible.
