^ She's been missing for 3 weeks (or was it just days?) I doubt the serial killer that wears people's skin that she's killed has her just nicely tied up or beaten up somewhere. Also I'm not sure if I should put this in the anime thread or here but I find something hilarious how anime watchers are reacting to Stain. In-universe it talked about how he had youtube videos made glorifying him and whatnot and it's what attracted Twice and the rest. While I could buy it for a story, I find something just funny about how it's happening on the actual website now that it's aired. My feed seems to have at least 2 videos up at all times talking about how amazing Stain is and how his ideals are fantastic for the setting and whatnot so it just strikes me as amusing.

Vigilantes had Stain as almost worse than when he was the Hero Killer. It was sorta funny,

If Toga grabbed Camie solely for the operation -- i.e. business, not pleasure -- she might just be chained to a wall with some blood donation equipment stuck in her arm. Didn't seem like the Camie form lasted all that long. Knock on wood, I guess?

I wonder what happens if someone gets a blood transfusion and then Toga drinks their blood. Does she get a little bit of time available to turn into both of them?

Not as good of an origin IMO if he had just started with killing fake heroes after his street preaching failed but better than I was expecting when I realized it was him in Vigilantes.

I meant more that "three days of pretending to be Camie" doesn't necessarily correspond with 72 hours straight in Camie form -- she might've reverted during her sleep, for example. Of course, the most likely result is that Camie is super dead, but not confirmed quite yet.

Killing a character we never actually met, offscreen, is a fair bit different than watching Mirio or Iida or someone get splatted by a villain.

I'm really hoping the offscreening fight is because he wants to save at least one of the big three's power reveals for later on. And you know, she's the Bleach character so she's gotta have the slowest rear end reveal ever. (someone is going to tell me we've seen her powers and it's so bad I don't even remember it at all, sigh)

that reminds me, doesn't it feel like Hori has eased up on the throttle a bit? everything from the start to All Might vs. All For One felt really fast paced compared to a lot of other manga, while the story in the year since has only covered two arcs, one of which hasn't finished yet. It's not like, Bleach or Naruto pacing, but it feels a bit less breakneck than it did before.

Overhaul's Kazilik Bey doesn't really have to be aimed though, just point in a direction and the spikes probably stab something.

I think I've said it before, but I suspect this arc is partially him stalling for time while he plans out the next one. He's already blazed through a bunch of Shonen plots, and you could arguably end the series after the AFO fight, so he's gotta make sure he keeps his momentum. Edit: Unrelated thought. I feel like there was a missed opportunity not having Deku's smash versus Muscular be 110,000,000%. Okkusenman is used pretty regularly as a short hand for "infinite", so (hopefully) you'd have fewer people trying to dissect that moment like the name/number was 100% (  ) literal.

Horikoshi commented offhand I think somewhere that this particular arc was going to be a long one. Also, he has had the skeleton of the overall story prepared since starting- like I think around AFO vs All Might he said we were ~20% through? that of course, can always change. MHA hadn't fully exploded then. Also fanart:

Speaking of which, I really loved what Rock-Lock's deal turned out to be--that he was a new father feeling protective of the U.A. kids. That one panel gave him a ton of character. "He's got all of your genes and none of mine!"

I hope whatever the next arc is it deals with the traitor thing because it's bizarre how much of a non-issue it is. They raised it up, gets mentioned time to time then it just vanished and hasn't been brought up ever again to the point I almost wanna guess the author forgot about it himself.

Having watched some of the anime I ploughed through the rest of the manga and I'd like to take a moment to express my love of this series. I love how it embraces what would be asspulls in other shounen series to drive home what being a hero is meant to be versus how their training is initially presented as working. In something like Naruto where our boy might fail a specified test but get though on some weird technicality because 'Dammit, he had heart!' it's far more believable in this kind of scenario where doing the right thing at cost to ones self is actually the whole point. it dos a great job of keeping Deku as an underdog (early on at least) while having his ability to advance not feel contrived. Whats more is that it doesn't belittle the other characters who don't advance via these methods by making you doubt they'd actually do the 'heroic' thing when in an actual crisis. As with all shounen the supporting cast is solid (minus a certain creep who... well you guys have talked him to death) and I'm glad Kirashima has been getting a decent share of the spot light in this latest arc (though I'd gladly trade him for Mina, Tokoyami or Jiro). I just hope 1-A don't all get Picolo'd. So far though it seems like they're keeping up decently and it's nice that if only in brief moments some have been able to shine just as brightly as the main kids. (I'm thinking Tokoyami destroying Moonfish in seconds or even just Shouji or Sero having vital if understated roles in some of the victories.) I feel bad for Hakagure and Kouda though. So far they seem to be the most left behind with only a few panels each showing their power or having any kind of notable moment. And this is without talking about those outside the 1-A kids. Shout out to Fat Gum, #1 with a gum. There have been so many moments in which this series has taken me out of my more cynical late-20's self and back into ultra hyped 12 year old self, slapping my thigh and smiling like an idiot. Probably the best being when Bakugou got kidnapped and of doing an Sasuke and joining the darkside just tells them to gently caress off. It would have been easy if out of character to have him join them and I was slightly expecting it to happen but I was so glad he stayed well and truly in character. There's more I'm sure I wanted to say but for now, gently caress yeah, Boku no Hero. Really glad I finally got on board with it.

Been thinking a lot lately about AfO putting together a punch of Quirks to make a huge shockwave and All Might cancelling it out with sheer punch power and how loving dope that is. Also Mirio is a perfect boy
