While the intentions might have started off good Hagakure is starting to show her weakness. I can't even remember if she helped out in the last act of the movie or if she is even part of this raid.

Horikoshi has mentioned at some point in interviews that he has some back story/story focus stuff for some of the less featured class members he hasn't gotten to yet- and Shoji was one who was named specifically. Part of the reason I think that thing are going to go extremely not well here is that Horikoshi also mentioned in the omake stuff for the latest volume in Japan that the one girl from the 2nd year class who got a page or two to talk about Aizawa expelling their class will actually have a real role in the story in the future. If I had to guess- the heroes get their ranks cut down really hard and the students have to step up to take over; and that logically would include the 2nd and 3rd year classes.

Prediction: the doctor was able to copy Eri's quirk by reverse engineering the bullets Shigaraki gave him, and gives it to Shigaraki. When he wakes up, he'll use it to de-power all the heroes at the hospital(but will pass out before he can kill too many because he was woken too early). This will cripple the hero world while still keeping people like Endeavor and Aizawa around for character moments. At the mansion, Gigantomachia will wake up and tear through the heroes there, forcing them to retreat, but not before the Liberation Army take some serious blows that will keep them from immediately taking advantage of the chaos left in the wake of the heroes defeat. Deku's group will end up having to fight the remaining nomu/high ends that escape from the hospital and while they manage to win and prevent any civilian casualties, it's a hollow victory considering the crippling blow done to the Hero Society by Shigaraki. This'll set up the time skip as society falls apart, villains are on the rise, and everyone is just waiting for the League to make their next move.

My guess is that this will be a qualified success for the villains. They will prove that they are able to stand up and push back against the heroes there will be enough confusion and damage that their next stage of the plan will be pushed back.

The next stage of their plan involved getting that one politician member of the Liberation Army elected into office, which is probably out the window now that he's been exposed.

Have none of you been applying lemon juice to your manga pages? Hagakure's been basically carrying this comic with her physical comedy and hilarious facial expressions this whole time. You can really tell when an artist has a favourite character to draw.

Yeah I meant just any consequences that aren't immediately hand waved away. Something that shakes up the story a bit because so far it's tonally 2 different stories that occasionally overlap and the main kids' plots are just kind of there. Even when things go south it's not them paying the price or dealing with the consequences it's a whole new subset of cast we made just for this (The Cat 4, Sir and Lemillion, Hawks now.) A lot of the character arc and story kind of happens At Deku and it feels incredibly wonky given how close and personal the villains and Adult heroes' stories can get. But I guess that means I lust for child death.

ImpAtom posted:"Let's kill off a bunch of side characters to show THINGS HAVE GOTTEN REAL" is a bit too uncomfortable DC/Marvel for me even in this heavily DC/Marvel inspired manga series. On the other hand, if nothing is even going to happen to any of these characters why are we even focusing on them?

I agree that a lot of the minor pros are gonna get wiped here to bring in more second and third year students we haven't seen any second year hero students so I imagine Aizawa's "expelled" class will come into play if that comes to pass

There's a reason why they're keeping the kids removed from the action/fighting/death unless absolutely necessary: THE ADULTS DON'T WANT THE KIDS TO GET HURT. I didn't know that the adult heroes not wanting the newbies to get hurt was bad storytelling.

Cool, that makes logical sense in universe and has literally nothing to do with narrative structure like I'm talking about. It even only explains the current event and not the larger trend in the narrative I was talking about, lol. ZenMasterBullshit fucked around with this message at 23:59 on Mar 25, 2020 |

The thing is that we've gone so long without the implication that anyone from the main cast of kids could die that people will be pissed if it does happen to anybody the fans care about. Imagine if the kids shown on the front lines so far all died at once.

I don’t think anyone’s suggesting the kids need to die. Just that maybe they should be involved more heavily in what’s going on beyond taking out grunts and defeating past villains over the course of 3 panels. They just need something to do seeing as how they’re the main cast.

Personally I really like the trainee heroes being treated as trainees by the pros, kept safe and given jobs specific to their current talents instead of forced to step up. It provides an excellent sense of world building and realism. It will also make the eventual shattering of Hero Society much more meaningful as all those precautions and safety nets are ripped away and the students have to step up beyond anything their teachers or superiors ever expected.

It’s funny cause to any hero without Hawks’s intel Re-Destro is a loving nobody. For all Tokoyami knows he took out a relatively tough guy and that’s the end of it.

i'm pretty sure almost nobody's going to die(maybe hawks but i'm not sure), the villains are gonna have to break out shiggy early with an incomplete afo and no doctor to spoonfeed him quirks and they'll retreat with gigantomachia covering them the villains will then be on the run again trying to get powerful quirks for shiggy

Re-Destro only "lost" because his prosthetic legs couldn't handle the force he was up against. If he still had his real legs, Tokoyami might not have been able to force him back. He also might not actually be knocked out. He just got knocked over and the entrance way collapsed, he might dig his way out of there later on.

Re-Destro has to store stress right? He used up an immense amount against Shigi. Stands to reason he hasn't stored the same amount. The point about the legs is also valid.

Yeah, he did seem pretty content up until the attack started. Hell, his stress might have actually been decreasing over time since Shiggy took over. The power of job satisfaction. Edit: I’m not saying that my boy Tokoyami is weak, but this was basically the best case scenario for him, so it’d be a bit much to jump to immediately scaling him to Shiggy’s level. girl dick energy fucked around with this message at 04:12 on Mar 26, 2020 |
