*Endeavor raises eyebrow, tilts head*

"It's - I'm Touya, your son, Touya!"

"Sigh...the one with red hair?"

Well again, this is either the end or the 3rd Act opener.

There's a lot of unresolved threads hanging out there, but it doesn't look like this particular war is going to get stopped short. Group #2 at the PLA HQ is likely where Gigantomachia is.

The MC isn't at either of these places, so Horikoshi doesn't have to come up with contrivances for him to survive- meaning everyone on the front lines at either location is in grave (narrative) danger.

this is a manga by a man who idolises oda this is just the wind down of the first act, also i'm gonna say that very few heroes die here if any

imo this is a set up for a big, objective villain win over the heroes. like this is the end of an arc rather than the beginning

It would be pretty loving weird for the series to end with the entire next generation of heroes still in their first year of hero school, yeah.

This arc might shake up the established status quo a lot but I don't think we're anywhere remotely near a conclusion.

Shigaraki got way too into battle royal games and really just wants to play one out IRL.

Gonna have one of nomu teleporting him around dusting bits of the island and forcing everyone to keep moving.

MHA is shaping up to be a Dragon Ball or Naruto style powerhouse franchise, there's no way the editors aren't pushing to keep this thing going as long as possible, including a timeskip like the aforementioned manga had where the protagonist grows into himself and the odds become more dire

With the anime finally introducing Gentle, I was re-reading the School Festival arc and I'm wondering when Oji Harima is going to come up again. He's one of the three infamous criminals Gentle brought up a while back, along side All For One and Destro. We've already seen how the latter two have influenced the current crop of villains, so it just seems like a matter of time before Harima plays a role as well.

I am fully expecting a gag involving Deku's dad's first appearance being behind a spooky mask with a dramatic reveal for no payoff.

"It is I, your father!!!!!" *takes off mask*

Would OFA work on the roboarm though?

Honestly they could give him a disposable device right now for 100% slug fests. Some sort of cover device that goes over the arm and dampens the impact against his own arm while transferring the power to the target. Just each punch destroys the device so you can still have some tension of "CAN I FINISH THIS BEFORE NEEDING TO EXPLODE MYSELF AGAIN?"

I mean the doctor's threat about his arms still applies and came up for a reason

Part of his new quirks could be a neat contrivance for him to be able to effectively use a prosthetic arm with One For All

I just thought it would be funny if Midoriya did inherit one of his parent's quirk, but only through a roundabout process.

Also him having to explain his new fire quirk to Todoroki.
