Twiddy posted:So because of the Square-Cube Law and how it relates to Spiders and Spider-Man, does Frog-Girl just have a moderate, but not significant, boost in strength and stamina? I hope the answer is yes. Or hell, just give her spidey-strength boost. Who cares. The Square-Cube Law has never existed in comics and double especially doesn't apply to super powers. She's probably going to be powerly related to frogs on a ratio only slightly more stringent than Spider-Man is to spiders.

Fabricated posted:I kinda hope Midoriya gets a decent looking transformation or simply doesn't transform at all when he starts properly controlling his power. Him becoming the weird shadow-silhouetted hulk with a chiseled face would kinda bug me. Isn't Midoriya unable to fully access to All For One right now? My understanding is that All Might still has most of the power but is slowly losing it to Midoriya. Midoriya is just so weak, compared to the power, that even the little bit he has is too much for him currently. The total body transformation probably only comes after you master limiting the amount of power you're using.

RatHat posted:All Might was originally going to look for All For One candidates in the school so I kinda doubt it can only be used by quirkless people. And no, he never said he was quirkless. His original quirk is being able to transform into the body of a Superhero, but the transformation only gave him the form not the power.

Dr Subterfuge posted:He says "I'm used to using this quirk now" as if he had acquired it recently. Seems like he can use other people's quirks somehow. Or maybe that's reading to closely into the translation. It seems that he's saying that he's become proficient at using it. If it's a mind control or action compulsion quirk it's likely that he only recently gained something approaching full control over it. An inability to fully control such a quirk would most likely cause you to fail the entrance exam, just as Midoriya would have if he didn't get in off altruism.

Dr Subterfuge posted:I dunno, everyone else seems pretty comfortable with their power, given that they have all had them since kindergarden. And lots of people can't fully control their quirk. Randomly being able to hock acid loogies is pretty powerful, but if you can't do it on command it's not all that useful.

Dr_Amazing posted:Is it even possible for him to win. With the way the points double each rank, his headband is worth twice as much as the next one which is worth twice as much as the 3rd place one, and so on. So he has to get every single other headband to match whoever gets his. His is worth more than all the others combined. The doubling of the previous value is only true from nez t to last place through second place.

Interesting. Between their quirks and gadgets, couldn't Deku's team just float above the fray and just use either grappling tech or shadow reach to grab other team's headbands? Other than of course team Anger Bomb going completely mental over getting their headband.

Countblanc posted:Other teams have quirks too though. Sero could just launch tape ribbons at them to pull them down, Bakugou could basically have his team rocket jump after them, Tsuyu obviously has her tongue, etc. I'm sure the gravity thing will be useful, but I can't fathom it being gamebreaking, even before you calculate in the "this has to be interesting as a story and not just an accurate portrayal of how it would work" factor. Given what the team has though, they essentially have team flight. It's way harder to hit a moving target going, apparently, at jet speed. Also gravity canceling clearly works all the way into outerspace, so just hovering at a great height would work.

Ytlaya posted:I'm guessing that Midoriya is going to lose the headband. Otherwise there won't be as much tension for later matches. Either that or he's going to be forced to use All for One. The optimal solution is that Team Deku loses their headband, grabs someone else's and the Deku headband keeps changing hands before the final attempt before time results in no one being in possession of it. Team Mount Erebus ends up the only team to retain their own headband, Team Deku has the highest single headband, and Team Bakugou has the most headbands.

gnome7 posted:I don't think they've mentioned it, no. I have no idea what he's doing, the comic isn't really showing how he's stealing everyone's headbands. I have no idea how he got Mineta's, the dude is inside a living fortress with Tsuyu personally guarding him. They should've been as safe as you can get in this contest. Seems like he got too cocky. Class B would have been better off not speechifying about how dumb Class A is, or at least wait until the end. Now instead of focusing on Deku's team they're all going to be focusing on him and the rest of the teams who retain points. Though he does seem to be flaunting the rules, wearing headbands around his neck instead of above it. Unless he's a tiny man riding around inside a smug robot shell.

Ytlaya posted:I'm guessing that whatever he's doing isn't going to work and he won't get the headband back. I'm not sure exactly why, but I'm just not feeling like it's going to happen. Either he ends up with the headband of team Endo-Ectothermic or in the struggle both headbands get destroyed. I'm betting on both headbands getting destroyed and Bakugou destroying all the others in his rage attack. With everyone at zero an alternative scoring method will have to be used. Copycat pushed the envelope way to far, Bakugou ain't the type of guy you needlessly taunt.

Ytlaya posted:I wonder how his quirk allowed him to steal from people without them noticing. It's certainly an extremely powerful quirk (even if you acknowledge its downsides it still allows him to put up a good fight against almost anyone, especially if he's in a team with other heroes who he can borrow from freely), but I'm not making the connection between it and people mysteriously losing their headbands without noticing. It's probably the quirk of someone on his team, which he or they can use mostly at will. If he wasn't such a gloating rear end about it he actually would have succeeded in creating maybe the strongest team and outright winning. He seems to be the Bakugou of class B, with everyone else in his class currently wishing he hadn't decided to be so showy about showing up class A.

The whole thing with him and Deku is that having to compete with the kid he picked on since they were 4 is one constant humbling experience that he super hates but has clearly learned from. Loosing to Deku is enough for him without Copycat entering into it.

I want to know how the second bearer of All Might's quirk got it from the first bearer. Was he a barber who accidentally got the first guy's hair in his mouth or something? It had to take a passing of the quirk or two before it's abilities even became noticeable.

If One For All is literally the accumulated power of all previous hosts it could be that at least a portion of their quirk is passed along as well. At the very least One For All currently includes super strength, transformation, and some degree of super endurance. Unless transformation is simply All Might's own quirk.
