HellCopter posted:Is this forest technically within school grounds? Maybe it's not trespassing yet? I just want Gentle and La Brava to be okay Regardless they've committed a bunch of crimes including robbery and attacking professional heroes. They are definitely criminals and won't be treated well if they are caught. I'm hoping Gentle's gambit isn't how it resolves since him going to jail and LaBrava getting away is probably going to result in his prediction that she will keep going and I want them both to be happy.

In a non-surprising twist, Gentle was considerate enough to bounce Deku back to where he left the rope.

The only bad part about this arc is it's going to be like 3 years before I can see it animated  . I love these two goofs and this is one of my favorite arcs.HellCopter posted:Is this forest technically within school grounds? Maybe it's not trespassing yet? I just want Gentle and La Brava to be okay So far what are the charges for what they've done? Unauthorized quirk use, small-time robberies, and some vandalism? But getting into a knock-down fight with a hero in training, hacking into the school's security, and trespassing would probably carry a heavier sentence.

Every fight that Gentle has been in has seemed to be self-defense on his part, as Heroes don't tend to solve their problems without violence, and given their "defenders of the status quo" role in society, even committing a minor crime to expose massive corporate malfeasance is probably met with any Hero being introduced to the situation throwing down immediately with the "criminal" in question (hell, Gentle even just outright started calling himself that at some point, they acknowledge it themselves). Even the "non-violent" Heroes that have some subdual/restraining method, you either have the choice of letting them catch you and going to Japanese-style jail or fighting back, so long as you don't have a really OP travel quirk to make a getaway with (and Gentle's elasticity quirk is pretty sweet for making those bounces, but it's not exactly teleportation or fast flight or super-speed or whatever). I'm not saying he hasn't engaged in violence, mind, I'm just saying, he hasn't really set out to beat up Heroes specifically (though he probably didn't mind the potential likes and faves result he might achieve when they came to him, sad as they kind of were).

I hope Gentle gets shown no leniency and they throw the book at him. But due to the low stakes of their crimes he gets 3 months probation and she gets 80 hours community service.

He did totally decimate those five pro-heroes that tried to stop him robbing that convenience store (where he left the money anyway). Even when you are defending yourself, fighting agents of the state isn't something the state is going to deal with leniently.

Yeah, Gentle's not going to supermax to hang with AfO and Stain. Best case, he and La Brava get a couple months in minimum security and end up doing community service teaching media studies at UA. UA isn't closed; everybody dances; Eri smiles for the first time in her life; we get more Gentle and La Brava on down the road. What a horrible arc!

Mercury Hat posted:The only bad part about this arc is it's going to be like 3 years before I can see it animated I dunno, if season 3 is going to get us through AfO I could see this being in season 5 unless I'm forgetting something big. Overhaul arc is substantial enough for season 4 in itself and I'm sure they'll clean up some of the pacing issues. Season 3 came out only 7 months after the end of season 2 and they seem to be wanting to capitalize on MHA fever while it's hot. Out of curiosity, anyone here have grade school age kids? I'm curious how this is being distributed and taken by its actual target audience. I could easily see it being like what Pokemon or Dragonball Z was to 90s kids.

Assuming Deku makes it in time, I wonder if some of the more perceptive students like Bakugou will notice that he's been in a fight.

All Might vs AfO is gonna be the mid-season climax for s3 with Deku vs Bakugou 2 being the season finale. I can easily see Season 4 covering up to the end of Overhaul, and I can see this being the end of cour 1 for season 5.

So, on the one hand, you've got a pair of idealists who don't fit into society and are using their extremely strong quirks to try to carve out their place. And on the other, you have a group of people who actively prey on talent like that. I suspect Gentle and La Brava are going to get recruited by the League of Villains. They're exactly the patsies Itchy Hands Bad Touch Man likes to push around.

Mystic Mongol posted:What if the alternative is La Brava dying in jail? All For One, literally the single most dangerous criminal in Quirk history, was not executed despite being very, very dangerous. La Brava is, at worst, getting a small sentence, she'll be fine. This isn't a horribly grimdark manga, thankfully. Also Gentle wants to be famous, sure, but not feared. He wants to be admired. Fear and admiration do not go hand in hand, and considering how he's a GENTLE Criminal, being feared would go completely against his persona and ambitions.

Tekne posted:Hero society isn't that dystopian, yet. Imagine a man and his accomplice. They are charming people, but they are also performance art criminals. They have a few dozen youtube videos of their crimes, which fall pretty much 50/50 into two catagories.
How long do they spend in jail? Besides, the Society of Villains could use some members who can get turned to the light. I like Toga, but there's no way she retires to running a small store and helping guide the next generation of society.

The show is only about 20 chapters of content away from OFA vs AFO so they'd really have to drag the Summer camp stuff out to not include it.

Gentle's fear that she would do worse crimes without him there seems to open that possibility, and she's emotionally vulnerable enough that she could be manipulated. It would be a pretty dark turn, though.

La Brava joining the Villain Alliance in return for a (potentially false) promise of help in breaking Gentle out of prison would be an incredibly sad and dark but plausible outcome, especially since even if her quirk only works on Gentle, she's got a skill set that is incredibly useful for doing incredibly bad things. I mean, poo poo, their plan to infiltrate UA involved her cracking open its security systems on the fly.

I just went back and re-read the chapter and really just have to say the art is amazing. Everything from the small details like Deku's crumbling gloves to the big spreads where they're grappling and the St. Louis smash. Horikoshi has a talent for presenting action in a way that's easy to follow with keen attention to detail. As for the chapter itself, I don't think Deku's just going to give up on it there. He seemed genuinely taken aback at how upset La Brava was. He might still help them out somehow.

Gentle is a true gentleman, so manly in the traditional sense. Kirishima and Tetsutetsu would love him I feel that both parties win here, as it'll look like Gentle and La Brava were just like trespassing on UA. I want to see more of Gentle as we progress, maybe in a more positive light also Deku's gonna make it back on time and that owns

Someone mentioned minimum security earlier and I'm wondering how you even do minimum security for someone with a quirk like Gentle's. Minimum security for him might resemble maximum security for a regular guy.
