I wonder if anything will come out of Ochako being told Deku was going to die by Nighteye. I think I know the answer to that though.

They'll have a mature discussion where their mutual feelings for one another are expressed. They'll date for two years, and then at that point realize the relationship has reached a point where it's just spinning their wheels. The relationship will end sadly, though amicably, afterwards the two continue on as friends into their adult lives. Or 300 chapters of will-they/won't they. Either is good.

Same but instead due to social pressure they'll end up in a loveless marriage they fake being great for publicity

Deku and Ochako's love will lead to a love love sekiha tenkyoken for a new generation, and all villains everywhere will surrender. All Might will shed a tear in pride.

Shigaraki shogi usually doesn't work by joining a game that's ended and beating on a king that's already been defeated, but you do you I guess. I'm glad he's still going to disintegrate Overhaul and then steal all the cool yakuza mans for his own lovely gang. All 2 of them.

I think this arc is going to be dope in the anime but it was a little drawn out with too many new characters, even if most of them were good. I love the villain stuff though.

He even speculated that looking at someone's future set those events in stone, which is why he refused to use his power on allies. So things are still up in the air a bit. This is obviously leading up to Toga dying while morphed as Deku in order to Fulfill The Prophecy

Like many predictions in fiction I think it was broken because "The future can be changed. Nothing is set in stone. Do not give in to the inevitable." If only because the concept of an inevitable unbreakable fate isn't exactly a thematic component that fits well in an upbeat passionate story of heroism.

Honestly, the most likely explanation is that Nighteye just didn't have a full understanding of how his power works.

The action was difficult to follow in this.

Was it? It was just Deku punching and throwing Overhaul around like a ragdoll and then exploding.
|
# ? Nov 11, 2017 10:10 |

The only bit I found hard to parse was Overhaul's last attack. The panels of Deku whipping him into the ground had cause/effect shown separately so they worked just fine. I liked Froppy finding a bit of agency in aiming Eraserhead, since he was still stuck in slowmo or immobilized. Not a huge fan of the bit of anti-climax regarding Nighteye's prediction, but I'm guessing there's probably more to it? 100% ready to see Shigaraki play shogi at this point.

I'm glad that both Uragravity and Froppy got to do something before the end.

One for All is like....seven different souls or whatever at this point, right? 100% of that is sure to tinker with causality, in my expert anime posting opinion.

Say Nothing posted:The action was difficult to follow in this. Deku bodyslams Overhaul and lands past him, Eri goes haywire, Overhaul reaches for them and Eri's power splits him apart from his henchman again, then Aizawa turns Eri's power off. I think Hori literally doesn't show enough action IMO. He does a lot of starting motion->end motion which is either an effort/time saving device or a stylistic approach. I kinda prefer the more slow choreographed stuff myself but it can eat up pages. Hori needs to read The Breaker to learn how to do choreography IMO.

Me, either. The lines of action on the last panel imply he was moving the opposite direction from the one the panel layout implies he was.

Terper posted:Maybe I'm stupid (I am) but I can't follow that at all. Same here, I have no loving idea what is happening in the top left panel and have hard time imagining what motion the guy did in transition to mid left panel. (although I guess at least the follow-up from mid left to bottom left panel is clear?) EDIT: Actually scratch that. Did he do a roundhouse above that flying guys head so that he could axe-kick him in next panel? What? Why would he do that, instead of just roundhouse kicking him? Lt.

I kinda prefer the more slow choreographed stuff myself but it can eat up pages. Hori needs to read The Breaker to learn how to do choreography IMO. There's problems with this choreographed style too, especially this particular page. The composition is kind of a mess: if you read left to right top to bottom, the white face of the dude on a black background is going to pull you off the page after you read the first panel without letting you get to the one below it. Right to left your eyes get pointed to the bottom panel by the way the kick'd dudes head is pointing, which implies that the sequence of panels on the left is read bottom to top. Which makes sense except all of the action lines and dust effects used to show impact imply the sequence to be read top down. The more intensity that happens, the less clarity there is. I disagree that it's not enough action either. Starting motion -> end motion is perfectly fine for this format since your brain is designed to and supposed to fill in the blanks. I do think that Horikoshi puts in a bit too much intensity when it comes to Chiasaki though, in the form of 'suddenly he has two more arms' or 'he gets huge and has even more arms.' The motions remain fairly simple and the composition is consistent but his character doubles/quadruples in complexity which makes it harder for our brains to parse what he's doing and what is happening to him.

I feel like this arc's going to be a lot better in the anime. Kirishima and Sun Eater's side plots will take one episode each, Sun Eater and Mimic's fights should be easier to follow, and maybe Overhaul won't be so nothing with some movement to him. As is, I'm glad its finally over and excited to have the manga move on to literally anything else.
