I'd say on the whole that MHA is better than Bleach but that could also be attributed to Soul Society arc being so strong the rest of it is kinda bad. Kubo also died like Hori is dying now for the back half of the series.

I think this is pretty cool actually. I'm more invested in this than in another big fight going on at the moment.

I figured this was a given for literal years since the insanely conspicuous page in Shigaraki's original flashback when he fought Redestro showing the mysterious suit/hat guy bringing him home one day. Can't say I like the twist but eh, it kind of works either way even if I'd have preferred Shiggy being a mutant like Eri since I think that works much better with the narrative. Eri's power could've easily turned her into a psychologically hosed up villain, but she wanted to be saved and was. Shiggy wanted to be saved, but he wasn't. Saving people's lives vs saving people's hearts, etc etc.

I think the thematic issues are basically covered by Tenko admitting that even if he let go of his hatred he still wants to be a "hero" for the "villains" (hilarious that Magne wasn't there though). Even if AFO engineered him getting Decay and that caused all the horrible poo poo that happened to him, it still happened. I'm not sure what acknowledging AFO's presence here adds because Tenko is still Tenko and he still had a hosed up life; vanquishing AFO yet again brings us back around to Tenko still wanting to be a hero to HIS friends. I'll consider this something of a failure if the end is just "uhhh yeah the league all died so we don't have to think about what would happen to them afterward" or "they're thrown into a ultramax but they kinda feel bad about what they did now so they're cool with it". I can't imagine Horikoshi not at least signaling in the ending that the world changed in the way that ordinary people wouldn't let someone like Tenko suffer on their own again, but who knows.

The spoilers are mostly foreshadowed like a lot of other stuff. I was wondering when some stuff would get a callback.

At lot of this makes sense and was foreshadowed forever ago but the thing that makes it annoying is that it's turned up to 11 when the basics would've been fine. AFO giving Tenko decay, where he got decay from, and basically letting nature take its course would make sense. He also had a bunch of potential replacements on hand in his orphanages like Dabi and Overhaul. Him trying to manufacture an heir and finding it in the one that'd torture his biggest enemy the most would be perfectly fine but having 90% of it be AFO's doing is lame?

It's kind of funny how little effort it would take to do these same twists but make it work better. Have AFO have nothing to do with Kotaro- just frame it as AFO finding out one of his shell companies employs Nana's kid and him thinking it'd be loving hilarious to get a successor out of him. He thinks about doing his plan with the girl, but decides against it when Kotaro mentions he has another kid on the way. He steals Tenko's quirk, gives him decay, and just lets nature do its work. Have AFO sell it as "Hey, I know hero society is a hosed up wreck underneath. I didn't have to do anything but give you a dangerous quirk. I knew your dad was bitter about his mom, all kids want to be heroes because of hero society, the arguments would always start around when you started to get your quirk, I knew Decay would probably manifest with you killing someone in your family, and I know society is rotten and wouldn't help you. I just set the pins up, but your beliefs about what knocked them all down was correct." Reemphasize that AFO had a lot of irons in the fire as far as manufacturing someone hosed up enough to be his successor, but Tenko worked out beautifully.

AFO being an instant gratification guy when it comes to quirks is fitting (he takes, uses, and discards them like trash) but is another thing you'd kinda want to spell out.

The slugfest between Shigaraki and everyone on the floating UA building went on way too long. Everything else was pretty alright IMO. I liked armored All Might vs AFO a lot.

I think the "Killing yourself is bad" thing is still present given that the the idea mentioned a few times is that Deku doesn't give you the "Oh he's gonna take care of it" feeling that All Might did, but rather that he makes everyone want to help.

Bullets seems to be at either end of the lethality spectrum in anime/manga. They either basically do nothing, or being shot anywhere by a bullet of any caliber makes you fatally bleed out in 2 minutes.

The thing with Shigaraki and Spinner is that Shigaraki was trying to say he went down trying to destroy the world that made Spinner so miserable. The whole idea behind most of the mainstay League members was that they wanted to tear down the world/status quo that created them, and Spinner was probably the biggest proponent of that.

Ywach hasn't really been outdone as a bad villain IMO. Madara is really bad because he's in an arc that is basically 1/3rd of the entire manga and they have a big gamemaster anthony party for like 30000 characters being brought back from the dead, including ones that were only passingly mentioned and never actually seen- then he was subsumed by Kaguya- it's essentially the whole of it all that kinda sucks where Madara at least has some good moments individually.
