That's a hell of a drop from Oct to Nov.

Where were we in the story October 2021? I genuinely cannot remember when anything was in this comic anymore because the last few arcs pacing have been so hosed.

That's cus Volume 36 (351-362, the chapter where Bakugou dies) was released in Oct 2022. Anything in Nov is presales and backlog stuff. Oct 2021 was Volume 32 (chapters 307-318) which was Dark Deku and lady Nagant.

e: Nov 2021



So a minor dip compared to last year

The one thing that would be comparable would be All Might killing himself to do one more United States of Smash on AFO. But like you say, that'd be a retread of a moment the manga's already done.

All Might kills himself using the, I dunno Milky Way Galaxy Smash or some such, and then Deku reveals that there's actually another past OfA holder (who is just very shy) and he uses their quirk to revive All Might.

Meanwhile, the anime has just hit MHA's last peak with Dabi's Dance.

It's gonna be fun to watch the fall-off after this. And also make jokes about Dabi out-trending the election all over again.

What is happening at the last panel on page 7? It looks like it's Toga drinking the blood, but that person has black hair, not blonde.

Toga shapeshifted into Froppy to confuse Ochako (and presumably other heroes) and drank Jins blood, while real Froppy was too distracted due to being attacked by Noumous and everyone else was hesitating about which Froppy is real. There are literally two Froppies on the preceding panel.

The hurt Froppy is the real Froppy. After the warp, you see that the real Froppy is hurt and doesn't have her googles. The uninjured Froppy is Toga and when she shapeshifts, all of her clothes (including the goggles) become part of the new form.

Are the Twice clones actually clones of Toga transformed into Twice, rather than clones of Twice himself? Like, when the blood transformation runs out, do any surviving clones just turn back into Togas?


i have to imagine when the transofmration runs out so do the clones. otherwise it's another stunning example of insane incompetence from afo, he could have just had toga drink a drop off to the side and store up a few of the clones before repeating the tactic whenever they got attacked

So Toga shapeshifted into Froppy for a couple panels and all it accomplishes is to confuse the readers as to what's going on.

The doctor did manage to copy Twice's quirk, but he only gave it to one of the little nomu that Mirko killed back at the hospital. You'd think he would have at least put it in a high end or something.

I feel like the fact that you could forget that the main deuteragonist and rival of the entire series died despite it happening only a month or two ago says a lot about just how hosed the pacing really is.

I could see AFO being against giving Toga his or Shigaraki's blood on the grounds of not trusting her enough with his powers. With Shiggy he has some degree of control over him, Toga is still a bit of a wild card, even if she's useful right now.

EDIT: Either that or her copying all their quirks at once would instantly destroy her brain.
