The Silver Age was a weird time for DC. Also, yeah. That Vigilantes chapter was bad. Even when this stupid fight is over, it's not over.

Main series Dabi looking really rough in that last panel. Seems like they could just wait him out and he would finish burning his own face off.

He's always had this last quirk to reveal, it's not an asspull. I've enjoyed every quirk he's gotten so far and they've been used in cool ways so I'm giving Horikoshi the benefit of the doubt here.

Honestly, it's weird seeing people not just be super negative but often super negative in ways to contradict themselves. "Hagakure is the traitor? Wow, what a nothing character. At least Aoyama HAD set up even if he's a minor character" "What it was a fake-out and it's actually Aoyama? Wow at least Hagakure was an out-there pick, now it's an obvious decision." It's not that you can't be disappointed or like... dislike the manga, but consistency people.

The main problem is that, while it has been established that Deku is going to get another power, it hasn't been established what that is, nor do we have any clues. So even though he intended to let Deku pull something out of the bag for the finale, he could be making up the specifics right now for all we know, for when Deku reaches Shiggy again (or whatever timeline the manga's release schedule runs on, but you get what I mean). Doesn't mean it won't be good of course, might as well stay optimistic! But conversely we don't have any way of predicting what it could be, since it's another person's completely random superpower, so there's not a lot to get hyped for.

It turns out the second user was actually the Luminescent baby all grown up and Deku is going to go super nova.

Theres a difference with a 2nd quirk still to reveal itself and Deku knowing what it is, hinting that its a super powerful pretty much one use only thing so now every time Deku gets into a point where it looks like he's going to get beaten thats always at the back of your head. It removes tension from the fight immediately.

I thought both characters were lame picks for the traitor since they were both just gag characters. I guess Aoyama did get a bit of set-up beforehand about his insecurities, but still.

Honestly, ever since Twice went down, I've found that the villain I'm enjoying the most is actually Dabi. He's hateable and unrepentant but clearly having fun with it and he isn't bullshit overpowered like Shigaraki is. He has one of the better villain origins and while it's undeniably tragic we aren't expected to sympathize with him. He feels like a legit "successor" to All For One, in that he has the same obsession with Endeavor that AFO has with All Might and every scene is him just gleefully being villainous.

Yeah like, I have a harder time believing Dabi can be "saved" than I can Shigaraki or Toga just because of how much of an rear end in a top hat he's been this entire series, even with his tragic backstory.

dabi puts all his energy into being a horrible little bastard man and the story actually treats him like a horrible little bastard man that latter part is very important, way too often the "we must save the bad guy" schtick creates a grating dissonance where the story tries to contrive more and more sympathy for the villain even as they become more and more vile i'm still traumatized by melon from beastars

Oxxidation posted:dabi puts all his energy into being a horrible little bastard man and the story actually treats him like a horrible little bastard man Wow, this sums up my feelings almost precisely. Like I feel there's a limit to how much empathy you can expect a reader to have for someone who continually does terrible, awful things and doubles down on doing those terrible, awful things on a continual basis. Dabi is a victim of his circumstances just as much as the other LoV members but the manga feels a lot more hardened and committed to him being a fuckhead, instead of an agency-free victim who needs to be saved. (I, too, am traumatized by Melon) Kanos fucked around with this message at 14:05 on Mar 28, 2022 |

Dabi is the best part of this finale. He's failed his entire life and even as he's closer than he's ever been to his goals he's failing so hard he's falling to bloody chunks. I love him. If his fight with Shoto turns out to be more focused on keeping him from burning himself alive it'll be the most interesting match up of all the final battles

ThisIsACoolGuy posted:Can I get a spoiler tag on what happened with bestars, I saw season 1 and thought it was good and just kinda fell off with it on my 'need to get back to eventually' list the very short version is that the author created a villain who was a) furry joker, b) an inadvertent argument in favor of eugenics, and c) very clearly the author's newest crush, so the last 50-60 chapters are all about this leering invincible rear end in a top hat who kills people and maims himself initially because his wacked-out genes make him incapable of finding pleasure in anything else, but then the story very abruptly (probably because of the eugenics thing) blames it all on his parents instead, so that it's shaking its finger at his mom and deadbeat dad while he's still laughing like a maniac and ripping people's skin off. he commits suicide, lives, commits suicide again, lives again, and is finally seen in prison literally smirking at the reader over a huge pile of fan mail. the manga ends three chapters later
