One thing I think Tokoyami could be criticized for was not stepping up to take charge once the rest of the team was separated from Momo. Before her care package dropped in, they were just standing around not knowing what to do. And lord knows the other two weren't going to step up.Mulderman posted:Gotta make sure she doesn't stand out for the TRAITOR reveal. Honestly, this is probably the only reasonable excuse for her being so useless. If she's not the traitor than oof.

Momo and Tokoyami are fairly blameless, the entire enemy team made their entire plan about separating Momo and throwing her into her absolute worst matchup and Tokoyami nearly defeated two of them. Hagakure and Aoyama have no excuse really

We are going up against a guy who can merge with black objects. We have a guy who can shoot a bright laser. We have a girl who can refract light. Kuroiro should have been a non-factor the second they discovered his quirk. They failed hard and the manga needs to acknowledge this.

Hagakure entirely exists for the one joke Horikoshi keeps using her for, which is fine, but he needs to stop putting her on panel in situations that lead to the expectation of her becoming anything other than a joke if he's not going to actually follow through on that.

Rouncer posted:Actually each team was supposed to treat the other team as if they were villains. Trying to capture them but working under the assumption that the other team was trying to harm them. Under those conditions her decision to strap herself to kendo is completely illogical and eraser dad should be lecturing her about it but wont cause her personality is too fragile. Villains don't always go in for the kill. If they did, class 1-A would be down a Bakugo, at minimum. If you know your opponents want hostages, then it makes sense to take advantage of the fact they don't want to kill you yet. Momo assumed (reasonably) that she'd lose in CQC because that's Kendo's whole schtick. Given that, and that her teammates were going to go down without her help, prioritizing the overall situation made sense. She could either win the battle overall (if Aoyama and Tooru had pulled their weight) and have hope of rescue, or (maybe, it would be a longshot at best) win her fight, get her teammates captured or killed, and have to handle everyone else by herself. It's a sensible choice. Not her fault it didn't pay out.

If the premise of the battle was "you should treat the other team as real villains and hold nothing back", Momo failed utterly because her response to being attacked was to IMMEDIATELY assume she'd lose and go for a self-sacrifice play instead of even attempting to defend herself. If Kendo were a villain and this were a real situation, that might end up with Momo getting killed or horribly injured. It's pretty clear by everyone praising Momo that "treat the other team as villains and burn them to the ground" isn't the core intent of the training exercise.

It would be funny if Momo was still unconscious in the next chapter and poor Kendo spent the rest of the arc tied to her.

If Mushroom Girl gets the ok for choking you out with mushrooms in your throat then Momo should have just worn a gas mask and just started spraying sarin everywhere when Kendo approached her instead of wasting all her energy on a useless lovely cannon E: to clarify it's ok because it's non lethal as long as she cancels the effect with her quirk (by making an antidote injector) Eej fucked around with this message at 02:42 on Oct 12, 2018 |

Someone earlier mentioned that Hagakure should have snuck up and put Manga in a choke hold instead of just punching him. On paper, that sounds like a decent plan, but given his weird comic panel head, is it even possible to choke him? How does he breath? The whole biology of his head confuses me.

Just thought of something. So the rope was still attached to Momo. Doesn't that mean she could literally create attached armor? So she could take a lesson from tanks and build herself some attached reactive armor (so when she got hit it would explode outward and cancel the force on her). Her power has so much potential and is so under utilized. Just need to get her and Hatsume together to probe the limits of what she could create.

momo needs to understand how the thing works and there's probably limits to how much she can actually make at once (tho if there is, there's been no indication of it thus far) she prob couldn't make anything bigger than her either since the stuff she makes comes out of her body

Yeah, I was blatantly wrong. If it's not Dabi at this point, I will be loving surprised. Yeah, it's a little much. At this point there is almost no way for the reveal to be satisfying, it's either obvious or an unnecessarily convoluted twist. -->EDIT: I suppose the kids reading it will be happy and feel smart having caught babby's first foreshadowing so maybe that's his angle, but it's unfortunate as an adult reader. As for the chapter, well. Koda got a reflection panel last time but we're just gonna move on from that second battle like there's nothing to talk about. Sure. Endeavor's plan makes less and less sense the more they let him yell about it. Like, All Might would be loving psyched if he was somehow healthy and active when suddenly an 18 year old Todoroki showed up to help out at the top. What satisfaction was Endeavor hoping to gain? Horikoshi really should have quietly buried this silly "breeding a successor" thing and let both Todorokis develop on their own. That said, I hope he lets Todoroki get taken out quick while he's brooding and have the other three clean up. The last thing this manga needs is three more cool characters jobbing so Todoroki can find himself and wipe them all out with daddy's Prominence Burn or something.

I think I'd also enjoy if Todoroki can take the back seat for this fight and let his teammates shine. It feels like of the main characters, Ida doesn't actually get much attention - when was his last big arc, was it Stain? A fight which everyone assumes will rotate around Todoroki instead focusing on the other three could make the round an interesting underdog fight. This is also probably the only round of the five where the outcome is actually up in the air, so enjoy it - if team three wins, team four will lose, and vice-versa. Unlike poor, jobbing Momo, I think both Todoroki and Bakugo have enough fight-cred at this point that either of them could go the "loses but learns a lesson" route plausibly enough, but I don't know if it'll be another "Todoroki angsts about his dad and becomes distracted" or "Bakugo refuses to work with others" lesson.

And we're on break next week because Hori is dying again. Three weeks of 12-13 page chapters are kind of a giveaway that he's sick or overworked again. The lack of post-fight chat is a bummer but it was kinda nice to see All Might and co taking the weird ghost stuff and potential loss of control seriously instead of just kinda not thinking about it.

You mean that the plan created by a heavily-aggresive, completely obsessed to the point of destroying his own family, absolutely warped barely-hero, may not really work?! Jesus, you've opened my eyes to Horikoshi's terrible writing! Seriously, I don't think Endeavor thought it that far. All Might defeated = he wins. He's utterly incapable of understanding that All Might doesn't share his obsession with the Nš1 slot - well, he may understand it now that he got it, but definitely not before.
