I have my doubts that (My Hero Academia and Chainsaw Man spoilers)

the most popular character in the series would go out like this without accomplishing anything. Even Chainsaw Man brought Power back for a touching final scene where she saves Denji after killing her unceremoniously, and Chainsaw Man is a series that loves killing characters.

I considered talking about Attack on Titan instead, if it makes you feel any better.

And it's more that Chainsaw Man is one of the Jump series most willing to kill characters, so if something feels too far for it, then My Hero Academia, which is closer to the One Piece end of things most of the time, is very unlikely to off someone under similar circumstances.

Kaioken: The kaioken blows your body up, so Goku was trying to master super saiyan instead.

Spirit Bomb: The Spirit Bomb is usually only pulled out in desperation moments where all else has failed, and Goku thought he had everything under control with his "make Gohan surpass SSJ" plan until basically the Cell Jrs. were kicking his face in.

Because The People's Hero Hercule Satan didn't need to use fancy gimmicks like that to beat a low down jobberino like Cell.

He only resorted to the Spirit Bomb when he fought against Kid Buu, because he knew the good people of Earth would want to feel like they had a hand in saving the day after going through the trauma of everyone dying.

Using the Spirit Bomb against 19 would be a terrible idea, and the only time he could reasonably use it against Cell would've been after he left the ring and entrusted things to Gohan.

At first I thought that Shigaraki's face was burned from Suneater's attack, but apparently that was there before. So his attack did literally nothing? It's hard to tell from the art. Mirio punched him right before it hit or something? Hard to tell what's going on.

If the plasma cannon did nothing, how are Mirio's punches anything more than a slap from a toddler? Mirio is strong for a person, but he has no extra strength. So what is he even doing other than being a distraction?

Mirio punching Shiggy got more of a reaction out of me than Suneater's Meat Cannon, and I honestly don't know how to feel about that

You realize Naruto was there when Madara made his debut.
Plus the entire cast spent a year and a half fighting Obito before finally dealing with Madara.

Until we got to the Hashirama flashback and he turned out to be just as hungup and irrational as the rest of the Uchihas.

No, because the naruto finale sucked so much I've put it out of my mind and don't plan to re-read it. Hence why I'm joking about this feeling similar.

Aren't you lucky. I just read and watched all of Naruto within the space of last year because it was becoming impossible to discuss MHA without knowing Naruto.

Like, there's seriously three Obitos in MHA, and I have no idea why anyone would think he was a character worth homaging to.

You know it'll happen. Or at least a "Tenko was a coolest guy" moment.

I was asking seriously there, btw: Why did Horikoshi make three direct homages to Obito in the form of Shigaraki, Dabi and Kurogiri? Does he just not understand how Obito was the worst villain in the entire manga? Or does he think scenes like Madara going "Actually I planned all along for Rin to die at Kakashi's hands and for you to witness it and decide to turn evil" are such big examples of good writing that he's planning to do his own version of that with AFO and Shiggy within the next dozen chapters?

Overhaul. He's a villain that should've been a long-term issue, but the story just forgets about him because the author wasn't interested.
