I wonder what Deku will look like as he keeps adding power, since he's basically done something new with One for All as he's increased his capability for it. since he's up to 20% now, I wonder if the next arc will demonstrate more training to get to the next level

Well, we've seen that 100% looks like Super Saiyan, right? Then 50%? One For All... Kaioken x50!

Deku seems to have unlocked some kind of new power from that dream, his glowing hand looks different from his usual full cowl glow. Prediction, Deku's hand eventually transformers into the Devil Bringer from DMC5 and we get some stylish action.

I kept thinking Mirio constantly falling through his clothes was foreshadowing that he would take down an evil Best Jeanist. It'd be a funny fight at least.

I might have the order of events wrong, but I could've sworn hero names were picked after that, and he didn't feel like he was ready to fully adopt the Ingenium name yet. Or maybe I've missed something in the interim.

Iida accepted the Ingenium name in the middle of the Stain fight, which indicated that he had overcome the pile of negative emotions that had led him into the fight in the first place with the help of Deku and Todoroki, showing that his motivations were on the right track to again becoming properly heroic The fact that Stain didn't recognize this and was still dedicated to killing Iida shows that even though he recognized the fuckedness of some parts of hero society, he was absolutely too far gone on his path of doing murders to recognize anything less than absolute unrealistic perfection

Part of the reason Stain lost the battle was because he didn't believe people could change and improve themselves. That's one of the biggest flaws in his ideology, that aside from a few exceptions (All Might and Deku) professional heroes are just greedy opportunists and Stain just does not believe that can ever change. It's because he was misguided there that Todoroki was the one who showed up to assist when Deku called the entire class; he's the perfect counter-example to that part of Stain's ideology. If it wasn't Deku, Todoroki would've still been brooding and not working with Endeavour at all. Deku helped save Todoroki and in turn, the two helped save Iida - both literally, from Stain's attempted murder, and figuratively, from himself and his quest for vengeance. The Stain fight is so good because it's a beautifully written example for why shonen fights are really clashes of ideology and ideas just with fists instead of words. Even stuff like how it took place in an alleyway was symbolic of Iida's tunnel vision and narrow focus at that moment. It's so good

ActionZero posted:I think the fact that Stain was choosing to kill Iida at all, for the heinous crime of being a teenager who reacted badly to a traumatic event, shows that he was way too far gone, nevermind that he kept going after Iida had sorted himself out. Maybe, but you're not reading it in the language of shonen. Stain's actions were monstrous by Deku's view (which is generally shared by the viewer), but the question wasn't if we disliked his actions. It was if his philosophy held up. The fight started with Iida ignoring Native to focus on Stain, showing the self proclaimed "hero" as someone who cared more about vengeance than doing what was right. His actions were right in line with Stain's view of Hero Society, and therefore Stain defeated him easily. When Deku arrived, he played pure hero, in the mold of All Might, but that still fell into Stain's philosophy. Real Heroes might be rare, but Stain still believed they existed, and therefore Deku's intervention didn't undermine him. Stain's worldview isn't ours, but it could still be true. It was Todoroki who proved him wrong, because Todoroki started the sports festival arc as a "false hero", only doing good to get back at his old man. But he changed, something that Stain thought was impossible, showing that Deku's worldview was more valid than Stain's. Iida joining in furthered the point. These "false" heroes were suddenly as real as the real thing (Deku and All Might), and Stain's beliefs were taken apart. His battle with the Nomu provides an addendum, of course. Stain stops a Nomu to save Deku (proving that his philosophy isn't all wrong) while the pro-hero Endeavor fails to accomplish his goal (showing the flaws in hero society). It's a pretty beautiful example of fight-as-philosophical-debate that's at the heart of a lot of the genre. You want the heroes to win from the start, but they have to prove why they deserve to if it's going to be satisfying.

First of all Stain never saw the sports festival as he was too busy trying to kill Ingenium and the trio points out the fact that whilst he was only trying to kill Ida. The issue with Stain's philosophy is that it is blind admiration of All Might and how his style of heroics is the only legitimate approach. The manga has a very clear view on this matter, that while All Might and what he did was truly heroic, it creates a model that is impossible to continue long term. It is actually kind of interesting looking at how hero society reacts to Deku, for he carries the same willpower of All Might but his body just cant keep up so they are horrified to see what that type of determination looks like when it is being displayed by someone who is not at the absolute pinnacle of power in the hero world.

It isn't about whether or not Stain saw the sports festival (he didn't, you're right), it's more about what ideas the characters themselves embody. Whether or not Stain can see it, Shotou is the perfect counterexample to Stain's viewpoint, and the tide begins to turn when he--of all the people in the class Deku texted--arrives.
