Nonexistence posted:This summarizes much of this series since incomplete Shiggy woke up but man has it felt more acute lately I actually like some of the recent arcs. In particular, all of the heroes wailing on the Shigaraki punching bag right after he wakes up makes sense because dude was still incomplete and had no time to adjust to his new power set, and was being limited by Aizawa. I want to see Deku yo-yo smashing the gently caress out of him animated. I'm invested in that. Loner Deku and Lady Nagant were strong arcs with some cool and fun fights as well, 1-A saving Deku from himself was also super compelling to me. This, though? I don't know what the gently caress this is or what the point of it is.

skipmyseashells posted:lady Nagant was just as bad as this I'm still reeling over Nagant, because the ending to that arc was so hilariously terrible. Nagant is convinced to stop fighting by Deku being so gosh-darn heroic. AfO detonates his trap bomb. Nagant heroically gives the heroes information despite blowing up(which she survives, somehow). The heroes follow Nagant's information...and it was absolutely nothing but a bullshit deadend troll trap set by AfO that ends in a big explosion that kills/injures none of the investigators, provides no leads or story advancement, and renders Nagant's dying heroism completely pointless. In a competition for "why did we do this again?", it's really fighting with the current arc pretty hard. Kanos fucked around with this message at 20:20 on Nov 5, 2021 |

I at least found that compelling as making All For One out to be an effective villain and massive rear end in a top hat. Probably better ways to go about it than just mulching yet another new character but so it goes with this series.

We had that stuff done better, in Kamino, where AfO clowned on a group of pro heroes effortlessly and judged them not even worth his time, revealed that his entire Shigaraki Raising plan was specifically something he started on a whim solely because he knew it would devastate All Might on a personal level, and then nearly killed All Might despite deliberately handicapping himself to a punchman fight because he thought it would be funny and ironic. That arc even did it without introducing a brand new character to build up and then job, too!

Deku mutilates himself multiple times an arc so maybe he just likes mutulation without any gender qualifiers

Yeah but he hadn't done it to Deku specifically yet, Deku wasn't even party to any of that. I think the whole point of that span of Deku on his own was to give him some sort of investment in the whole One for All vs. All For One legacy beyond just being told it was something he had to do. I'm not arguing it wasn't a poo poo lot for Nagant, it was and it's the biggest problem this series evidently has: introducing new characters for a one-off arc is basically the unified version of every complaint anyone ever has about this series. It's the root issue of every problem with every arc from Overhaul to A vs. B and beyond. The series is much, much better when it focuses on the recurring cast and the established conflicts, I agree.

I think it's more accurate to just assume that Horikoshi likes body horror and violence in general.

The big thing is that Shigaraki is touching her but also that she's touching Shigaraki. So hopefully something is done with that.

her limitation with her quirk is mental, probably because she thinks she cannot surpass all might. it's why the one aspect where she can compare herself directly to him, she always comes up short, despite training significantly. if there's a last twist to this fight, it'll be her overcoming that barrier

The chapter was good. I don't think the fight is over since it feels like there's more backstory incoming and fights run on narrative not damage. Wild speculation: She's gonna say "New Order has unlimited rules" and totally whoop Shigaraki into running away but the strain kills her. Wishing for more wishes is a classic!
|
# ? Nov 5, 2021 23:51 |

she's gonna lose her power but her last rule is going to be something that nerfs Shigaraki and he's going to discover to his horror that while New Order lets him create and change two rules of his own, her rule is grandfathered in and can't be changed anymore

I think a lot of series fall prey to that, especially when they present themselves as an ensemble cast but make the ensemble irrelevant very fast. Yu-Gi-Oh GX immediately comes to mind.
