But it adapted the Endeavor arc before that, so we're basically right before the big assault on the Paranormal League.

I think the anime should be after the part where Deku fights the guy that kidnapped Natsuo, since that was moved before MVA for some bizarre reason.

I think season 6 is going to entirely be the Paranormal Liberation War.

Did the anime at least end on "on that day all the heroes vanished"? Cause that's like the perfect cliffhanger spot.

I stopped near the end of the class fight because of how poorly they were handling the season. Then moving the endeavor stuff around, combined with reaching about the low quality of the villain arc just put me off the anime entirely.

Same, although I finished watching the villain arc, just out of inertia. It's kinda wild, My Hero Academia went from one of the best shonen anime adaptations to being worse than One Piece anime in span of a single season. (or season and half, 4th season had a lot of rough spots too)

Is there a character that could possibly defeat - even TOUCH Shigaraki Tomura? Keep in mind I’m talking about Shigaraki Tomura with All For One, infinite regeneration, magic hands, his own personal headmate, and the world’s deadliest high-fives.

I can't get over how Star and Stripe still feels mostly pointless in terms of impact. Shiggy doesn't even feel particularly nerfed from the Quirk poisoning or whatever she did before she died. I guess her fight led to the current state of things, but still. What a bizarre character. It's like she was introduced to weaken Shigaraki, only for the apparent weakness inflicted to not really be shown or have any impact.

The second is kinda necessary imo. There are better ways to do it probably but it's a contemporary setting where the rest of the world clearly exists still. It really would be weird if the rest of the world was just like "man that's hosed up. Good luck" as Shigaraki sinks Japan into the ocean.

TBH I think he just wanted to draw her and couldn't figure out another way to work her into the story.

Just replace the opening and ending with appropriate villain versions (which the Manga did), use the villains for voiceovers etc. literally treat it as a hostile change of the show to about Shigaraki and his friends instead of Izuku and his friends.

Iirc there were indications, with stuff like animators posting completely different storyboards and prelim animations compared to the final product on Twitter + a few Star comments, that MVA was heavily censored or otherwise hosed with by people above the animation team.

I suspect this is why Horoikoshi wants to just end it, he's probably sick of how his story's been abused too.

Yeah I remember seeing someone on Twitter posting their work for toga's scene (shifting to uraraka) and comparing it to what we got and it was like night and day.

The climactic cut of Shigaraki dusting the city was really good, even if they flubbed everything else.

I remember an overly well animated scene of Redestro flying through the sky, but the actual destruction was just standard dust clouds. edit: rewatched it. Some of the buildings cracking were alright too but then they interrupt it with Machia standing motionless and such. oh jay fucked around with this message at 22:32 on Mar 10, 2022 |

The punch manga must escalate. Deku's final quirk will be something that's like ki but not entirely fully ki. The Shigaraki fight will be concluded with a Kamehameha that kills his and AFO's souls, leaving a harmless vegetable Shigaraki behind. Deku will grow up to be a cop and name his son after Shigaraki and Hawks, nothing about society will be improved.

Deku's last quirk lets him amplify another person's quirk, used in tandem with the boost from one for all, he supercharges Eri's quirk and rewinds the world itself back to when young shigraki's quirk was about to activate. Deku saves him and changes the timeline. Back in the present, All Might and his successor, the New Symbol of Peace Tenko Shimura help class 1-A take down All for One.

There are some shonen arcs that fare better when you can read them all at once. I read most of joint training all at once and it's not fuckin one of those, lol. It's just a bad arc. It was even miserable with anime pacing.

Joint training was truly the arc I think most people realized that the majority of the side characters were going nowhere, and Horikoshi really didnt know what to do with the school setting with regards to the plot. Happy page 1337

Joint Training showed that somehow Horikoshi had never read a manga with multiple 1v1 fights happening simultaneously before because there's no way in hell anybody who had written one of those once would do 5 of them in a row
