My favorite bit of foreshadowing in this series was with Toga's really weird and creepy rant when she first showed up about wanting to kill Stain and become him. Now that her quirks been revealed it makes sense and its so crazy.

If someone says it one more time I'm having Florina show up as a corpse. I'm not even kidding, I was pissed off with people doing that shit back in 2010, and I'm not dealing with it now in 2016.

On top of Her talk with Ochako, about how it's not enough to simply imitate a person, you need to become them

So is she actually supposed to be naked? I figured it was some kind of wetsuit and they were just being weird about it. She seems to be pretty much the same as that girl with the needles as far as her interactions with Deku go, so I can't say I'm particularly excicted about this character.

Just so perfect

Why Bakugo so eager to lose to Midoriya, if he admits his suspicions are true he has to acknowledge he stands no chance

Deku is not nearly as strong as All Might right now and Bakugo is well aware of that fact.

Giving up and acknowledging somebody else as stronger than him is kinda 100% the opposite of Bakugou's whole thing

Peace through overwhelming determination
I think Bakugo low key wants to get his rear end kicked so he can accept the fact that he's weaker/on an even level with Midoriya and the other classmates and humble himself.

It's like someone who can logically work something through but wont accept it as true until someone defeats them? I dunno. I hope they aren't expelled for this.

Nope! We only have like, 3 episodes left and I doubt they'll show up in any of them either. It's worth noting that those guys weren't in the manga either. I think they were meant to be other students the kids fight during the first part of the test, but were eventually replaced by the ninja school and tea girl at some point.

Deified Data posted:

Here is why Bakugo will not fail: what Todoroki and Inasa did was far more disqualifying than being mean to a couple disaster victims and the genre dictates that neither of them would fail alongside Bakugo. Unless he fails and they pass arbitrarily, which is not outside the realm of possibility but this show is usually written better than that.

One of these three failing would have a good narrative punch, all three failing is impossible. If Bakugo is the one that fails that would be stupid as hell. Their inability to put their argument aside literally put more people in (real) danger than there were already.

Turns out they both failed.

Huh I just realized they cut the line were Tsukauchi said he wanted to get them a meeting with Stain, I wonder why. They also cut the scene that showed he was in the same prison as All for One in an earlier episode.

It's not manga stuff so much as stuff that should have been in the anime already.

While it may indicate a change in direction of the narrative since the manga was written, there's still room for it to make it to the show. There's a whole chapter that's been skipped that we're definitely seeing in the last episode or two, so it may get packed in with that.

Haha yep, I eat my words with relish. This is exactly how it should have went down and I'm glad the series went there. At the same time I'm glad that all three have the chance to catch up so quickly. Those eps would make for some great filler if we didn't only have a couple episodes left.

chiasaur11 posted:

He's my favorite but no I don't, I don't think he can really conceive of how vastly he's outclassed by Midoriya and if he manages to win it will be because Midoriya was forced to hold himself back to prevent permanent harm.
