Watch the thing be overhaul apologizing to Eri, who rewinds his arms back on so he can fix whatever needs fixed at the end.

Deku didn't bring him expressing remorse for whatever he did to Eri for nothing.

I think Overhaul suddenly pulling a complete 180 on being an entirely self-absorbed murdering child-torturing monster dickhead because Deku tried to weakly lecture him is a terrible enough idea that it might fit into the way the manga has been going for a while. :haw:

Well, Overhaul is completely mindbroken because he had his arms torn off which means he cannot ever fix his father figure he at least at one point was planning to wake up once he restored the yakuza- so he might be willing to change

She's not confirmed dead yet, and in general, if the cliffhanger has a protagonist getting thrashed rather than having people yell out that someone's dead, they've still got a chance.

This is probably not that different from the time Bakugo got stabbed in the gut, but it's still pretty lame that Mirko has been absent from the story for a good while now and immediately gets two of her limbs ripped off before she does anything.

She’s physical DPS in a raid battle where the boss has a death touch, though, sooo… hope she has ranged attacks.

Can't believe Mirko died before she got a chance to kick something to death that didn't seem possible. Like an earthquake or explosion.

Mirko should learn how to kick air projectiles. Like the MC who has about a tenth of her practice and experience :nallears:

They said they had a countermeasure for Decay so I assume death is not on the table yet.

It's probably gonna be something like the extendo-limbs aren't actually considered direct parts of his body and so the decay has to travel down them, giving her time to escape/somebody to cut them away from Shiggy but yeah if she gets jobbed to ash after ten panels it'll be funny at this point.

Why are we thinking she got hit by decay? Eraserhead and Monoma are both disabling Shigaraki quirks. It didn't work for his weird, freaky arm transformation for whatever reason (probably some bullshit connected to the whole "Shigaraki is perfected now" thing), but they still suppressed his Air Burst, so Decay is probably out of commission too, until we see Shigaraki using it while they are staring directly at him, at least.

Lol at anyone thinking Mirko is dead or that this attack is going to do anything but set her up for a cool moment.

I am interested in how this is happening. Maybe instead of being a "quirk", this is just a good old fashioned regular mutation. That would be a fun twist 'btw people can become supervillains now without quirks even being needed, have fun!"

Shigaraki reveals that All for One cut a deal with Disney and allowed his likeness to be purchased, allowing him to change his identity to an X-Men mutant. This change in status causes Aizawa's Erasure to no longer affect him.

Ok, but there is a specific quirk-gene, right? So a different kind of mutation that didn't rely on the gene may not be affected by a quirk that specifically affects quirks. Just like how it doesn't do anything to Shigaraki's ridiculous super strength and toughness because it's not technically a quirk making him that strong.

This is something that has already happened with his body being made "naturally" super strong. I wasn't saying anything about the writing, I was just speculating about how this could be happening.

I think it's one thing to do it at the end of the second act to set up the scope of the threat of the final confrontation. Doing it during the final fight? Doesn't work so much IMO

ngl caught back up last night and the set piece for this fight is really cool. its all absurd of course but a floating death cage, built to keep the worlds most dnagerous man locked up just long enough to try and kill him is kinda sick. i also like that deku isn't in there rn, think we might get some cool bakugo moments
