Kaminari is doing the left hand rule. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fleming%27s_left-hand_rule_for_motors

Jirou x Kaminari has been hinted at for a while. Look at how lovingly she looks at him in the cat drawing Horikoshi tweeted!

Edit: oof, not a good snipe. I mean that he’s not doing the MLA sign in the panel everybody quotes, he’s referencing electricity

The anime at least mentioned that Shigaraki got the summer camp's location from All For One, which is why I think there's probably more to the traitor subplot than something as simple as "one of the students/teachers is secretly a villain". It also makes me think that Shigaraki probably doesn't know how AfO got that info either.

Once every two months, but it doesn't seem to get translated often. The most recent issue was all about Melissa Shield from the first movie having a contest with Hatsume to see who could make the better support items, with poor Deku being used as the guinea pig

Oh my standards for an anime movie going experience are definitely way lower than a normal one. At least I wasnt squeezed in between 2 guys that never heard of showering this time, unlike with Two Heroes.

Chimera deserved more screen time imo, and while the doctor said 9 could steal 8 quirks and use 9, I think I only counted 5. Also lol at the kids just totally murdering all the villains except Mummy. Deku and Bakugo really pushing that Goku/Vegeta dynamic hard this time around.

I forget, Mirko hasn’t shown up in the anime yet has she (I can remember if she appeared early on or not)?

Also in regards to the movie, did they ever explain how OfA suddenly went back to Deku at the end? I understand the real reason of course but I can’t remember if they bothered to make an in-canon explanation

She has shown up, but only as an unvoiced still picture in the end credits.

It's going to turn out that one of Deku's new quirks will be the ability to temporarily share his power with another person. Now we can get 18 more movies that end with him sharing One For All with one of his classmates.

Hopefully not Iida. Pretty sure if his powers were boosted, he'd lose his legs. Like, they'd rocket off his body.

I liked the movie well enough. It was certainly better than the first movie for giving the rest of the class time to shine and the action not involving the big bad was good.

On the other hand, I did not like the big bad or the final fight. Nine being yet another dude tied to All For One is lame, we already did that last movie and making him all but All For One (Again) and expecting us to believe children could take him down was really stretching my suspension of disbelief. I'm sure Deku and Bakugou Both Using OFA At 100% sounded cool on paper but it was utterly incomprehensible to watch and falls apart with even the slightest scrutiny.

Like I was ready to deal with if the kid used his powers to power them both up beforehand and let them survive it because they end it in an instant but nope they just are able to sustain that kind of power because reasons. Also, Bakugou's power uses his sweat. How the gently caress did he manage to produce explosions strong enough to melt huge landmasses and not end up a dried out husk? They even purposefully broke both of his sweat tanks so there's no "he burned everything he had saved to do it" excuse.

Again it's fine as a shonen movie and most kids won't be bothered by that but it was impossible for me to just turn my brain off when the manga does its best to be much more grounded. At least the first movie had the sense to have its wild-rear end finale involve THE All Might and gave Deku a plot device to allow him to believably use 100% a limited number of times.

Chimera, Slice, and Mummy were all OP too but at least they bothered to write out understandable ways for the kids to get the upper hand on them. Nine was just bonkers. It was overall a real good movie up until that final fight.


That's enough words complaining about a kid's movie. I give it an Overhaul/10- looked cool at the time but I don't want to see or think about it anymore.

Because that's not how his quirk works. Because One For All is an enhancement quirk alongside all its other benefits

Well we don't know where Gigantomachia is right now and I don't think we've seen Re-Destro or Trumpet yet either. Toga and Skeptic's advisers are also unaccounted for(except Slidin Go, who was nabbed in the city, so the other's might be there as well).

I'm placing my bets on Gigantomachia attacking from the rear so he can run into Kirishima and Ashido and get a callback to Kirishima's flashback from the Overhaul arc.

I figured the story would follow the usual flow for this sort of thing.

1. The good guys start winning, maybe with a bit of difficulty but not much
2. B-plot plays out, bit players get to look cool
3. When it really looks like the good guys are gonna win some massive shoe drops and the fight gets flipped on its head.

I'm assuming Gigantomachia is at the mansion. The people hitting the hospital are a murderer's row of the top heroes vs high ends, so I imagine more heroes than Miruko will get roughed up but they'll clean up the high-ends just in time for Shigaraki to wake up and do... something? There's too many people there with name tags I think for him to just kill everyone.

Gigantomachia already has shown he can handle a city full of people with good quirks they know how to use...WHILE tired. So if he wakes up and is at the mansion it'll be interesting if anyone can even stop him.

People keep expecting the heroes to be incompetent for some reason. As the original rescue of Bakugo showed, they're not the ones that are going to get caught flat-footed. Only unknown factors are going to throw them off.

This is why I don't think Machia is going to do as much damage as folks think. He's a known factor, not just from Hawks, but Tsukauchi and Gran Torino both already knew he qas with the league.

I wouldn't be surprised if Gigantomachia is off sleeping in the forest around the mansion right now(he's lives in a mountain for years, he's probably used to it) and that's why I think he'll end up attacking the heroes from the back or side instead of charging their front line.

There's also the third location where Deku, Bakugo, Todoroki, and the rest at evacuating the city, someone has to attack there too to give them some fights.
