Japanese Deku pre-quirk is a possibly suicidal teenaged boy who keeps himself going by fantasizing about being heroic, he's also more self-centered. English Deku genuinely believes he can become a hero and more of his lines focuses on others rather than himself.

it's a close reading of the first two episodes of the series in both the sub and the dub that provides two subtly different, but equally interesting characterizations for deku and how they contextualize some of the larger themes of the series

Seems like a good way to irradiate herself, and the stuff might not be safe/stable/properly contained/whatever while in the process of being made, so I'd say no.

If only Stain had tried to illustrate his point through means other than the murder or attempted murder of legitimately decent and heroic people and also children. If only.

He did he started as a street preacher. Then he became a vigilante then a villain.

I think she could since she was able to make nesting dolls that had flashbangs in them so I think whatever she makes comes out complete as long as she knows exactly what it's made of and how it works. A lot of poo poo wouldn't work right if she had to assemble it piece by piece or if it came out broken up or exposed before fully removed from her.

It would've been neat to see any of that or get flashbacks or something, because all we get from him is just him being extremely terrible.

We see him briefly as a Street Preacher in the video Giran showed off back in the Aftermath of Stain Episode. It's still on him that he felt that the solution to no one listening to him was murder.

Stain pre-Stain shows up in the vigilantes spin off and it fills in some of how he got to where he is now.

There aren't any anime spoilers in the spin off that I recall.

Don't think too hard about Momo because she has an infinite amount of ways to just straight up kill everyone around her. Like if she had a bad day she could just expel a cloud of sarin in every direction and there isn't anything you can do about it.

Momo is constrained by the fact she uses her own body fuel to create the objects (like poop) so she couldn't really destabilize an country's economy or make a million guns or whatever. She's definitely one of the more broken characters though.

There's a number of extremely valuable yet not very massive objects she could make. Metamaterials, isotopes, rare metals, etc.

Spend a month using the quirk to the limit every day, sell it all at once, watch prices crash.

It probably wouldn't stick long term but it'd be fun if you like to see the world panicking.

Assuming she inherited her quirk from one of her parents, it would explain why they're so filthy rich.

I think in the manga in one of the bonus pages they make the point that she is very careful about how she uses her quirk as it could easily damage the economy.

Synthesize rare and expensive pharmaceuticals!

Much like in real life, the actual synthesis of pharmaceuticals is a tiny fraction of their cost. She wouldn't be doing anything a plant in India or China already does in much larger quantities plus she would get nailed for patent infringement.

Realistically she would make an insanely good disaster relief hero since she would be able to create generators, medicine, shelter etc and her only logistical requirements would be food and time.

Actually her body breaks down her fat and reconstructs into what she wants, if anything she'd be dangerously underweight. I guess matroyshka dolls don't need that much

Quirks being tied to biology like Bakugo's sweat is what makes his explosions, Todoroki making himself too cold or too hot, or Sero's tape launchers being actual protrusions under his skin is one of my fav things about Quriks as a power system

If Bakugo's quirk is based on his sweat being combustible, would Aizawa be able to erase his quirk entirely since his costume has a separate igniter built into it?

Expect My Mom

Those grenade gloves kinda "catch" his sweat and store it and I believe have their own separate igniter once the pins are pulled so I'll say maybe. His Quirk is that his sweat is akin to nitrogylcerin and he can detonate it at will so the question is if Aizawa could just turn the "akin to nitrogylcerin" part off

It is neat, but it's not always entirely consistent. We never really get a biological explanation for Shinso's power (although it's possible to imagine one; I assume it works like telepathy in the Foundation books). Then there's people like Manga Fukidashi, whose power seems to have a slight fourth-wall-breaking component.

Here's a weird one to think about: With sufficient study, could Yaomomo, eventually create complete working electronics? "Oh I don't have a cell phone because I decided a butt like a shelf was more important. Good thing I can literally pull one out of my rear end".

She can make pretty complex objects. The dolls aren't really a joke since they're coated and have a design and everything. Printed circuitry isn't much different.
