A non-OFA Deku could have joined the police and been pretty good at it. Deku was in more danger of getting himself killed by his propensity to jump to the rescue first and think later than becoming disillusioned and abandoned by society.

He was specifically told by All Might he could become a cop if he wanted to help people as a quirkless civilian. That was pretty crushing and I doubt he would have taken him up on it since it's really not what he wanted out of life. Deku may really want to help people at an almost pathological level, but he also idolizes heroes to the point where he has books full of notes on every aspect of their moves, costumes, fights, etc. Deku that didn't get One For All would eventually get some office job his talents at book keeping and studying would be suited for or MAYBE even take the UA test despite All Might's warning and come out even more crushed when he got a literal zero score against giant robots. Both of those would lead him to a depressed life that would only be different than Gentle's by aspect that he wouldn't be living in a shed eating weeds, but the more banal despair of watching everyone else act out his dream on TV while he also lives a life of obscurity like the average person.

It's not definitely what would have happened with Deku but it's a potential path his life could have taken, especially as we were shown all his classmates laughing at him applying to U.A.

I like that Tokoyami is just a bird. And Mineta is totally just stuck in Eraserhead's hair.

It can't fly, and is otherwise exactly like a normal cat, but just with the head of a bird. Does anybody have that piece of fanart where they remove Tokoyami's beak and it's just a really receded normal human mouth?

He was also told by All Might by the end of the first chapter that he could become a hero. And the important bit about that is that's how chapter one ends. He, and we, don't learn about One For All until the next chapter. Hell, the initial plan for the manga was to leave Deku quirkless, and was only changed because the editor suggested it. So it's very likely, in an alternate universe, someone is reading a version of MHA where Deku never gets a quirk. And he'll still be a hero.

The only happy I can find in this ending is that Deku will at least have his lunch money stolen and be given a wedgie for breaking his new gloves already.

the stakes for this arc do not at all match how hot blooded these battles are. and deku knew based on gentle's past videos that the end result of the crime would have been very mild it would have only been interesting if gentle had won (though i guess he was partly successful). school festival arcs are also always mediocre. please end soon bad arc!!!

Under normal circumstances, sure, but under the current ones his success would mean the instant shut-down of the school festival. That carries with it the wasted efforts of all of his classmates as well as the ruin of Eri's one day of freedom and their attempt to show her that the world can be a fun, good place. Imagine that- She gets out of the hospital for one day and a villain breaks into the school and the whole thing shuts down. She's a child and she already blames herself for Mirio's loss and Nighteye's death, in this state she would definitely blame herself for that too. I understand liking Gentle and La Brava, but people who say Deku is in the wrong for trying to stop him and that Gentle's success would not have caused any trouble are not thinking beyond the page in front of them.

Anyway i'm proud of Deku. Dude used a kick and also didn't break any of his bones. He's learning.

Xarbala posted:But yeah I actually care a lot more about Gentle and La Brava than the festival right now, whether I'm supposed to or not Yeah, I have to be honest, that might be the only "failing" (If you can call it that) of this arc. Then again there's any number of directions this can go so from here that the fault might even be negliable. A "Youtuber vigilantie" could have easily been the most scumfuck chracter in this whole comic and almost no one would have bat an eyelid given the real world situation. The restraint to not go there is commendable. ConanThe3rd fucked around with this message at 10:27 on Apr 20, 2018 |

I’m excited for the newest member of the school staff, Gentle, to begin his teaching career along side his trusty TA. Media presence is a big part of hero work.

I'm afraid I also don't care for festival arcs, mainly because I don't much like festivals in real life. I still like seeing my favourite characters goof around though. Hopefully next week Deku will come to their aid, maybe say that he was chasing them to warn that they were inadvertently trespassing and that no fight ever happened. Which obviously won't fly in itself, but it might if he says that he'll swear blind that that is what happened to Hound Dog and co.

If Deku wants to be a real hero he needs to save pure souls like LaBrava and Gentle from themselves.
