Saw the 3rd movie the other night and I gotta say it took its sweet time to get up to full You Say Run mode.

Pretty cool that this movie is getting more than just two dates for run time. Thanks Demon Train, you helped give anime movies an actual box office run.

Well, movies that aren't DB Super and Ghibli that is.

I think this is also partly because theaters and Hollywood are still recovering from last year so they're willing to do longer runs just to have something running on the screens

Absolutely. But hey I'll take it however it gets here.

The movie was extremely clearly where all the budget and good animators went instead of season 5. There were some cool bits but it's pretty annoying that they ruined the season for a flashing light fest that has no bearing on the story at all.

How is Deku going to get the ultimate PUNCH GOOD/SMASH power and not win by punching all his problems? :colbert: That doesn't seem very Plus Ultra of him.

Deku can SMASH the original All for One after he saves Shigaraki. Best of both worlds.

It's pretty classic superhero storytelling to present the hero with a problem they simply can't solve by punching it. I wouldn't be at all surprised if physically overpowering Shigaraki For One is off the table.
This brings me to a proposal. All in favor of changing AFO’s name to All For Shiggy?

I have so many questions. Why is Deku so angry? Why do the sparks look so dumb? Why is Deku's foot already behind the blue guy? What the hell is going on with blue guy's left forearm? What the hell is going on with blue guy in general? Bones and... portals? What kind of theme is that?

For that matter, is the blue guy supposed to be someone in particular or just a random villain made up for this drawing?

Hold that pose.
I've gotta get something.
Did this start out as art for something else and the guy decided to use it in this project instead and changed it to Deku? There's no punch or kick being wound up here, just sort of a leaping tackle or something. No sense of motion at all.

I guess this makes sense why there's no punching or kicking? I dunno, still doesn't seem like a great piece.

He's the leader of a humanity-first cult that believes quirks will lead to the destruction of the planet so he tries to kill everyone with powers with some Trigger quirk bombs IIRC

His quirk is always active and reflects everything, even emotions, making him unable to connect with others and unable to even kill himself.

World Heroes Mission has a pitch-black dark start, a warm fluffy middle, and a breakneck kinda scattered ending, but it’s good.

Yeah, I saw it last night, it's a fun movie. I came in looking for fun action and cool quirks and that's what I got. The new movie buddy is also a fun character and I liked his dynamic with Deku.

One big nitpick I have is that they only wear those cool stealth suits that showed off in all the ads for like the first 5 minutes of thr movie and never even fight anyone in them! What's even the point of having them if you're not gonna use them!

Out of curiosity, do any other characters make a major appearance besides Deku, Bakugo, Todoroki, and Endeavor?

Most of the other class are in other parts of the world tracking down the terrorist bombs and get little scenes of them doing stuff near the end, though there are a few who spend the whole movie at the dorms doing nothing(including Mina, let her do poo poo dammit! :argh:).


Funny thing about Bakugo, Todoroki, and Endeavor, they only really do stuff near the beginning and the end of the movie, the majority of the film is following Daku and the new movie character while they're on the run after being framed for mass murder.

Huh, weird that Bakugo and Todoroki were front and center in most of the advertising for the movie then.

The other stuff sounds similar to what they did in the first movie honestly (and yeah, Mina is awesome and deserves to be allowed to actually do things)

I mean Todoroki and Bakugou still get more screentime than the rest of the class, and they both get big epic fight scenes at the end, but the movie is very much not about them.

Actually, encasing him in ice had failed like twice earlier so what he did was flash freeze him from the inside, with emphasis on making it as cold as he possibly could. He absolutely killed that dude but because of shounen magic he was okay and got arrested instead.

The problem with Todoroki's quirk being so crazy, is that whenever he faces someone who pushes him to his limit, it's hard to believe anyone can survive his strongest attacks.
