Holy poo poo, not only was the episode a clip show, they even made the ED a clip show. It's, like, metatextual or something.

So they decided to put this year’s clip show episode in the middle of the series instead of right at the start, that’s weird

Giving everyone an individual moment at a max rate of what seems to one per chapter does kind of grind the entire story to a crawl. It also is just tiring. If every week I'm like "Oh look, it's that guy who turns people into meatballs, he got revenge for his Nazi dad or whatever", its just very who gives a poo poo.

Now I want to read a MHA where the characters all have the magic powers from Dorohedoro.

Edit: Deku inherits the powers of All Might, who can turn people/objects into mushrooms.

Though I guess a character with a weaker version of this actually already exists.

Theres probably enough to make a fair few episodes. Muscular, Nagant and then the class knocking some sense into him.

If animated well it could be interesting to watch at least.

And then we get to wait for the shitshow thats going on now.

I still love with all of my heart that the entire drama with Nagant was utterly loving pointless because the information she heroically sacrificed herself to impart turned out to be a fake troll by AFO that literally no one mentioned ever again.

I legitimately can't remember how much more of this "arc" there is before that, though. I feel like it's like four chapters away, hilariously.

Would be kind of funny if they just added a filler episode or two about Deku's solo journeys. Feels like with the way the plot moves from this point forward, it's about the only place you could fit something like that in.

What was the result of that fight? Didn't she hamstring AFO/Shigaraki for like two panels just for them to do their patented "nah I just decide that doesn't work on me" and then making it all a waste of time?

Let's go do some hero shit!


He took New Order from her, but she'd changed it so it was incompatible with other Quirks. This led to AFO losing a bunch of Quirks, though the impact is questionable at best because we don't really know what he lost and he only used a few Quirks so far anyway.

Yeah, it would have been a lot more noticeable if she had destroyed a quirk like his super regen or even Decay, but instead it was an unknown number of random quirks.

Losing Decay would've been so cool. It'd show that, with all All for One has done to him, he's not even really Shigaraki anymore. If you do go with "I need to save Shigaraki" as your endgame, you could even have him bust it out at the end to show that he's back to being himself.

I can't wait for All for One to suddenly go "Oh no, if only I hadn't lost (Quirk I've never used before)! I'd be able to win in this situation! drat you, Star and Stripe!"

This is the only possible outcome of that entire thing because of how unspecific it was.

Would've been a cool effect if the outcome from that was something like: forgot all the quirks he has or can't combine two quirks together.

I still love how incredibly, pointlessly mean and spiteful it is to hand out the "literally poo poo your pants constantly" quirk to a child as compensation for his parents selling out to you body and soul.

AfO was really good when he was just an rear end in a top hat puppetmaster instead of whatever he is now.

Scholtz

Zorchin' some Flemoids

Is the "shitt yr pants" aspect part of the actual quirk or just a side effect of forcing a quirk into a quirkless body?

e: yeah it's the latter


(Ch. 337)

It's also pretty heavily foreshadowed in Chapter 168

I think it's a mix of both, where you'd have to learn not to poo poo your pants with it, and not being born with it might make that harder.

I'm too cool to be extinct.

Little dude had a normal human body, and then was given a quirk that shoots a laser out of his bellybutton, without any of the adaptations that should’ve come with that. Like the original owner of the quirk probably had some sort of laser organ down there.

Of course he shits his pants all the time.

Can AFO take heteromorphic qualities? I guess he can but quickly offloads them to Nomus instead of going around as a winged frog with a giant tail.
Thinking about if maybe the original laser guy had been born with like diamond abs and guts or something, and he just didn't give that part to Aoyama because he only promised a gift of one(1) quirk.
