Now I'm imagining all sorts of YouTube/prank shenanigans that would happen with Quirks. Can you imagine Jackass with Quirks?

Man, Gentle is easily my favorite 'villain' in MHA and I wish there was a spin-off based on him.

Gentle's backstory is basically what would have happened to Deku if he hadn't have met All Might. He would have run into a situation trying to be a hero and gotten people hurt (and probably have gotten himself killed in the process). Hell, he did that very thing in episode two. All Might being there is the only reason he''s not a corpse already.

I love how the contrast between Gentle and Deku really makes it clear that the whole "absolute determination" thing is creepy and scary even when it's from a hero. It just shows how important All Might's smile is, no one is going to be inspired by a hero who looks like he wants to rip and tear even more peaceful criminals. Very good arc.

Shinjobi posted:Gentle rules Gentle hosed up his own life even before he got that guy hurt. He was an under achieving poor student (even though we see that when he actually puts his mind to it he can be very capable) who couldn't be satisfied just learning to do a regular job instead of continuing to fail in his hero course in school. And now he's willing to ruin the efforts of other school children, who have actually put in the work that he wouldn't when he was their age for the sake of a dream he'd forgotten until a classmate didn't remember his face. Gentle's and La Brava make for a great story arc and great characters, but as a person? Gentle's a poo poo.

I love how Gentle gets almost exactly the same power-up Deku got in the last arc.Doctor Reynolds posted:Aww, I was hoping Deku would convince Gentle to try to break in on a non school festival day. That would still be a very bad thing and only make the festival look worse in hindsight.

He didn't just fail at theoretical tests, he failed at practical application (he took the provisional license exam four times and failed all four). And then he gave up on his "dream" anyways, until he got mad that someone he went to class with was getting famous and didn't remember him. He then set himself to the task of learning how to use his powers in an effective way after he'd already screwed up. Which he could have done at any time previously, but didn't. He didn't then go on to be a hero constrained by society's requirements for how one becomes a hero. He didn't try to take a licensing exam and find himself barred because of his past mistakes. He decided he'd be just as happy being remembered as a villain and went on to be a Jackass. As in the show. He didn't even have a particularly noble dream. He wants to be remembered. So do all of us. Most of us have lines in the sand we're unwilling to cross to achieve those dreams. Grown rear end man Gentle, however, says in no uncertain terms that he's willing to crush the efforts of a bunch of children and a little girl who didn't know how to smile to achieve those dreams.

EDIT: Also he says himself he's perfectly aware of all the turmoil going on at the school due to the attack during the summer training and Bakugo's kidnapping. UA is publicly on thin ice.

It's hard to judge Gentle because we don't have enough insight into his highschool life to know what he did and what he was going through.

Gentle is a dipshit. He's still a fun character, though! Also this sorta reminded me of a Tiger & Bunny episode involving the ninja kid.
