I wonder if we'll ever see anyone with a venom/symbiote type quirk. It'd be interesting to see this series' take on the black suit Spider-Man arc. You know, as long as they don't have Deku reinact Spider-Man 3.

So Dabi definitely has to be related to Endeavor right? The anime just started the League of Villains attack on the summer camp and seeing his powers animated just deepens that connection I wonder if a later arc will play this up more

he could be but just having a fire quirk doesn't prove anything. if he had some connection to todoroki, you'd think he'd have mentioned it

Hell didn't Horikoshi say somewhere that Deku's dad can breathe fire? I doubt he's also related to Endeavor.

In a twist, the "breathing fire" quirk just means he can breath in fire around him and not actually shoot any out of his mouth.

I feel like the combination of a 'fire-breath' quirk and a 'pull objects to you' quirk would be the ability to inhale fire and put it out, a very useful ability for a rescue hero.

I just got caught back up on the anime and for anyone not following it closely, next episode is titled "My Hero" which is the name of the chapter where Deku vs. Muscular ends. If they're putting the whole thing into the next episode it'll be covering three chapters, so it should be a pretty crazy one.

I really enjoyed seeing all their quirk training getting animated, especially Tiger's boot camp. CAT PUNCH! I wanna see Deku train with him again, we could call them...Tiger and Bunny.

Chapter was extremely good and it was really great to see Deku pick up a win without nearly dying or having to go beyond his limits or w/e, really really cool. I also liked Gentle and he really finished things up super well. Glad as well that the academy were actually on point for detecting intruders. e: I'd expected Yuga to show up

Yeah, I'm glad that Deku was able to do something without exploding. Shows that he's grown a lot and also he's freaking strong, like drat man, basically any other character from class A would have had a lot more trouble with Gentle than Deku did. Also, I just had a thought; what if Gentle's next video is on Deku? They were filming during his fight, and it was pretty brutal, like even people in this thread pointed out that Deku is going pretty hard on the guy. What if that's how Gentle spins his next video, on the idea that UA are training their heroes to be overly violent and destructive, starring Deku, the guy who can throw a steel girder like it's nothing. I'm thinking this because that's one thing UA hasn't been given poo poo for yet, how they train their students to be heroes. They're under fire for letting the students get involved with villains way too early, so any more of that would just be more of the same, but the question of what kind of training students were undergoing wasn't brought up at all and I think that is exactly the kind of question to get UA into even more trouble under the public eye. Plus it'll probably be Gentle's most viewed video, and I would not mind in the slightest if he becomes a recurring villain due to wanting to get even more popular via more fights against UA.

That feels like character assassination, which I don't think Gentle would go for.

Gentle's probably going to jail now(though hopefully with a lighter sentence since he surrendered). I figure that either La Brava will get away with the camera so she can upload it herself, or it will get confiscated by UA staff, who will watch it and realize what Midoriya did for them.

Ehhhh, the entire fight left me feeling cold. In a shonen manga when battles are clashes of ideal what exactly did Deku do to justify his victory? The story explored Gentle and La Brava histories but whenever it came to Deku's part of the narrative it simply was 'but eri' repeatedly. Full disclosure I don't care for Eri or anyone else from the Yakuza arc, which may taint my views. The entire fight was about Gentle and La Brava history and relationship, from showing why Gentle started to wear heavy eyeliner to the climax where it is shown Gentle original desire to be a hero. By contrast Deku went 'but eri' in varying pitches every time he was on the backfoot and instantly turned the tables by overwhelming pure strength, it's a super boring resolution to the fight and meta-narratively wise feels incredibly cheap. Like, Gentle channelled the metaphorical power of love and Deku just steamrolled over it with the exact same beat be did for all Gentle's previous attempts to gain the upper hand. Maybe the next chapters would turn my view around but currently it feels like Horikoshi wanted some chump lowstakes villains to show Deku's new powers and accidentally gave them backstory and characters without retuning Deku's investment in the arc.

His stakes in the fight are twofold. Deku knows if anyone breaks in the festival will shut down and Eri will be sad, which is bad. Deku is extremely justified in wanting to make sure that a severe trauma victim is able to have fun for the first time in her life. He also knows that if UA has to take another hit to its reputation by having a security breach, that best case his Mom probably still pulls him out of school, and worst case the whole school gets shut down.

Maybe it's about Deku's heroic ethos, and how he wants to be able to not only rescue people but also to put a smile on their face and hope in their heart? And here we have a little girl whom he rescued and who desperately needs to learn how to smile and how to hope again, and he's fighting hard in order to do that. I don't think this is meaningless show.
