I feel that this Todoroki arc was handled extremely well, shout out to Horikoshi for showing the multiple range of possibilities when it comes to abuse (one who rejects atonement completely, one who believes everything will become normal, and one who is trying to differentiate multiple aspects of that person's character). At the very least Endeavor is aware that he's never going to be forgiven, and he's just trying to make up for past actions A deep dive into the origin of One for All is gonna be really good, especially with chapter 200 coming up. It'll be funny if Midoriya somehow has a stronger connection to the Quirk than All Might

Vengarr posted:I like that "Can't You See?!" is an immediate in-universe meme. I also like that that became the meme rather than, say, Endeavor's victory pose. It's still supportive of Endeavor, but it has some resistance built into it as well, since it acknowledges there are people that don't see. Also I was definitely surprised that Endeavor's eye made it. I can be bad at guessing what's going to happen in general, but my track record for this series in particular is atrocious.

This is entirely secondhand knowledge, but from what I've read and watched that's actually supposed to be both respectful (shows appreciation or something, unless I'm thinking of a different behavior that's considered rude here, and also, well, see the following for why it might be disrespectful not to slurp it) and actually the right way to eat ramen; it's supposed to be servedhot, and good ramen noodles will basically dissolve in minutes if left to sit in hot broth like that, so you slurp it down to eat it without burning yourself. No wasting time and noodles, you eat that poo poo now. Not sure if or how that still applies to other noodles; I know soba can be served cold, for example. But, that's what I've heard at least. Meanwhile, on the topic of the chapter, yeah, I'm going to say that I'm pleased with how the Endeavor stuff is being handled. It's rough stuff, but Horikoshi showed that he grasps it fairly well and managed to get to this point without SJ's editors jumping on him. (Though I'm curious how he managed to get this far while AssClass and others did not; is it because Endeavor is still a hero and/or was set up as being headed for, well, not redemption exactly, but atonement perhaps, while in the others the bad parents were outright villainous?) Also, on the topic of Dabi being Todoroki Touya, besides all the heavy hints we've been getting, I'm going to say that something someone said is a sign that he's not a Todoroki a chapter or two ago is actually possibly evidence that he is: The blue fire he makes. The person (can't remember who, sorry) said that since Endeavor has normal fire, they're probably entirely different fire quirks, but what I'm thinking is, Endeavor wanted to combine his quirk with Rei's to make an even better hero quirk and all that, and prior to Shoto all the attempts were "failures". So, what if for one kid their quirks did at least partially fuse, but instead of a super-quirk like Shoto's, the fire and ice made... Blue fire. That'd likely be a pretty enraging failure to Endeavor, a cosmetic upgrade to his own flames rather than something better. (Or maybe it just manifested as regular fire at first, before developing, since that's a possibility too, and someone, possibly the same poster I'm thinking of above, made the point that if Dabi is Endeavor's son it seems like he and the others should have possibly made the connection between the blue flames and Touya. We'll see, I suppose.)

I think we need to make a new category for MHA filler that is basically the creators stuffing in scenes that the author just didn't have the time to include in the original chapter.

I have a feeling that when Dabi's quirk manifested it was so powerful that it engulfed his body and that's why he has skin stapled all over him. It would probably be something that Endeavor was ashamed of. Or who knows, maybe Endeavor was so frustrated that his first child didn't come out the way he wanted that he burned him, though that possibility is so dark that it would once again make Endeavor completely unredeemable.

That'd likely be a pretty enraging failure to Endeavor, a cosmetic upgrade to his own flames rather than something better. Natsu mentions this chapter that Endeavor deliberately kept everyone in his family separated from Todoroki and so they didn't know anything about him. Endeavor's view of Dabi was obscured by his annihilated eye and extreme combat fatigue, but Todoroki got a very good look at Dabi before he vanished into Kurogiri's portal. If the other siblings were deliberately kept separate from Todoroki then that'd explain him not recognizing Dabi -- either that, or Todoroki was too young to remember him when he was driven away from the family / presumed killed by Endeavor. That's if Dabi is Touya, anyway. Zebia posted:I have a feeling that when Dabi's quirk manifested it was so powerful that it engulfed his body and that's why he has skin stapled all over him.

I'm curious to see what the other translations are of that panel where Endeavor reflects on him ending a person's future. As another possibility, Touya could have gotten fed up with Endeavor, tried to fight him, and got scorched.

Even instant ramen doesn't get soggy unless you leave it out for like half an hour.

Like I said, I heard the opposite while reading up on and watching things about different Japanese food, that instant, crap ramen will stay solid but good, fresh restaurant ramen in steaming hot broth can melt quickly or something, due to being overcooked by the hot broth, which can also affect the taste of the broth itself. It admittedly was... About a year ago, now that I think about it, that I was looking into that stuff, though, so maybe I'm misremembering. Or maybe I was lied to. But I definitely remember that, which made slurping important for two reasons: It helps you eat it before that happens, and it'd be disrespectful to the chef to let it happen. Also apparently slurping it actually makes it taste better? Not sure how true that is, but some Googling on the subject is telling me that as well.

I think what's happening is that someone who eats ramen every day of their life can tell the difference between fresh noodles and 10-minute soaked noodles, and most like texture of the former better. Then they massively overstate the case when explaining "The One True Way To Eat Ramen" to the uninformed. And yes, getting air into the broth by slurping both cools it and lets you taste it better.

I wonder what the significance of Deku's hand being the only solid part of his body in that dream/vision is. All Might is wispy/smoky which I think speaks to that he's not dead yet and not fully part of the One For All collective. The other holders of OFA are fully solid and in clear view, and I don't remember where it was said but I'm pretty sure everyone prior to All Might is dead now. Deku's hand is the hand that he wrecked almost to the point of uselessness, so does that mean that the power from that hand is now fully integrated with the OFA collective?

I thought maybe it was supposed to represent how much control Deku has over OfA. He's only mastered a fraction of it, so only a fraction of him appears in this dream.
