PMush Perfect posted:Nah, but new OP and ED next week with the new cour. Hope we get another Best Girls ED. Tsuyu never made any friends because she was busy taking care of her siblings, was working towards going to UA, and people had a hard time approaching her because her face is hard to read. Which speaks to heteromorphic mutations being insanely common. Tsuyu being a froggirl didn't really gross anyone out or repulse anyone, people just were less comfortable to approach or interact with her because she's really really hard to read and that makes conversation awkward. I think her frogform-induced poker face works really well with her bluntness- it'd make sense to be more direct/blunt when you can't emote as much as other people.

The new OP is alright. That ED is great. Totally didn't expect that; maybe we'll get the kung-fu AU in the next one.

I hope if we get a season 3 that the OP for the arc is really over the top. Like, Nano would be perfect. Or MAN WITH A MISSION or something.

Deku specifically just sent his location to his entire contact list. He didn't know Todoroki was in the immediate area- he was mostly hoping someone would be around or realize that him broadcasting his location with no context might set off alarm bells for someone.

The most badly translated line in the episode is the one from the last season that Midoriya thought of when he recalled All Might confronting Shigaraki. "The eyes of you white-collar criminals burn silently." ...what? The idea I think is to say "your eyes are empty" or lacking conviction or something; basically saying that Shigaraki is mad but has no powerful conviction. But that line is poo poo and probably one of those overly literal translations. E: like here's the Viz translation, which for once isn't overly literal and dry. Still think Viz is boring though.

Moltrey posted:Speaking of, Viz is going to start putting the spin off manga on their site, has anyone read it because I've heard LITERALLY nothing about it in my circles MC is a laid-back hero wannabe with a movement quirk that is pretty decent but not super OP who wears an All Might hoodie and picks up trash/gives directions/helps people across the street; and is basically only a vigilante at the start because if you have to be pedantic he's using his quirk without registration. Basically the nicest dude on earth and a huge dork. He ends up the "disciple" of a middle-aged masked man who beats the poo poo out of street thugs while again, being unlicensed. And his third "group" member is a middle-school girl who goes by "Pop Step" and does guerrilla street performances in costume and uses her super-jumping quirk because the man wants her to use the sidewalk like some kind of chump. It takes place a vague amount of time before MHA (~2-4 years maybe) and dovetails into the manga's plot through connected characters, events, etc. There are some way more blatant comic references; middle-school thug wolverine and cyclops are recurring characters and the loving avengers show up at one point.

Gran Torino didn't really do a lot of non-AFO related heroing; he himself says he only got certed to use his quirk freely and teach All Might.

It's not super complicated why Stain was killing seemingly random heroes and crippled Ingenium despite him being a pretty good dude. Stain lost the plot. His background is sympathetic, but he's gotten so loving pissed off (probably because his murders aren't "waking society up" because he apparently never bothered to explain to the world WHY HE IS KILLING PEOPLE) that basically everyone who isn't All Might is a fake until proven otherwise. He doesn't research- he's basically sure everyone's a phony unless they somehow prove otherwise right there when he shows up. Midoriya shows up, says the right words, then puts his life on the line to do the right thing for no promise of a reward in the face of overwhelming odds. That checks all of Stain's boxes, so he tries to spare him, goes easy on him in the fight, and then later saves him. Ingenium never had a chance. He chases Stain and confronts him, Stain sees another costumed rear end in a top hat with a big flashy agency and if he knows Iida's family then it's even worse because this dude is just doing it because his parents and grandparents did it. So he carves his loving spine out. Really- if I was Stain the dude I'd kill is All Might. I wouldn't be happy about it but All Might is in fact the pillar that holds up a world of what Stain considers fakes. All Might is a hero to such a point in power/charisma he holds crime in check just by existing- and this slack lets everyone else be fake. Endeavor being #2 basically proves it- Heroism is more than just being super efficient at beating up criminals but Endeavor doesn't have to check any boxes besides "I can own mentally ill people and street muggers super good" because oh poo poo look All MIGHT has the inspirational/intimidating presence of a top 100 list of heroes. tl;dr This is basically All Might's fault; his pillar of peace thing wasn't a good idea

Endeavor is such a terrible person I wouldn't want to learn anything from him, regardless of how effective he is. His motivations drive his methods and if heroism is supposed to mean something more than being good at beating up villains and rescuing people from disasters anything you pick up from observing him is tainted right at the outset. Simply being around the guy is placing yourself in a toxic environment.

I unironically think that as he's written, Stain would not be on his crusade if the job had any title but "hero". He's absolutely obsessed with the purest definition of it.

Kaubocks posted:ok cool, it was just a lot to take in and try to parse the "rules" of All for One on the fly. it helps a lot too to understand more what One for All actually is which i realized when talking with a friend. i was of the understanding that One for All was a collection of quirks that kept growing, like for example first OFA gets passed to someone with flight, then when it get passes to a guy with super strength that guy also has flight, then when it gets passed down to a guy with xray vision he can now fly and be super strong. my friend corrected me that One for All is more a power in its own right, something that just started out super weak and the more it gets passed down the more it evolves and gains power. All For One himself has no powers innate to himself other than to steal the powers of others and either use them, or distribute them. One For All has no innate power either- his quirk isn't to steal anything. His quirk can only pass itself on, and only when he wants to. All For One cannot steal it. It merged with a Power Stockpiling quirk that was forced on him by All For One (either out of pity, or as a means to control him). Thus you now have a quirk that stockpiles super strength slowly with the benefit of being able to be passed on from user to user. All For One is insanely loving dangerous- if it isn't insanely clear from the explanation he creates the Noumu. He steals quirks from other people, then modifies victims to be able to handle the burden of multiple quirks. Well, "Handle the Burden" by fixing their bodies/brains just enough that they can fight and follow orders- the person they were is utterly dead.

I don't really care. Like at all honestly. Especially given the series' contemporaries in the magazine. E: I just rewatched the episode real quick and I didn't really see anything to the degree of what people are talking about. Ya'll got brain worms. I guess everyone's dropping the series next season when one of the few actual fanservice moments shows up. Fabricated fucked around with this message at 23:19 on Sep 10, 2017 |

The Lord of Hats posted:While the shot is definitely bad for the fanservice, what bothered me more in the moment was how bad her running form was. She's training to be a pro hero, she should be able to do better than "stereotypical unathletic girl run with flailing arms". I get that she was panicked, but come on . The dumbest part of Momo's outfit IMO are the high heel boots. Even from a height perspective they're dumb because she's like the third tallest person in the class.

Moltrey posted:The locker scene with Mineta is probably the worst for me as Jiro is sad and embarrassed that she was the only girl Mineta wasn't trying to perv on, implying she would've felt better if she DID get creeped on, ending the scene with the notion that Perving On Women Is Good Because At Least It Makes Them Feel Attractive which hooooooly poo poo what. like it's the the intent probably but yeah that's probably been the worst for me Jirou actually acts like an average teen- she's arguably the least physically developed of the girls and has some body image issues because of it (partially because she's friends with Momo who basically looks like an adult woman standing at 5'8" where the rest of the girls barely make it over 5"). It's like one of the few instances where the kids act like kids instead of proto-adult heroes. Kaminari and Jirou actually are about the most normal kids in the class- Kaminari has trouble focusing on classwork, less creepily sideeyes girls with Mineta, and (unsuccessfully) macks on every chick he meets (he makes a move on Uraraka right off). Mineta gets out and out owned immediately when he peeps which kinda softens the scene- him groping Tsuyu (twice) was more gross IMO. The "Uraraka has PMS" joke was something I 100% would've heard in high school so ehhh. Fabricated fucked around with this message at 11:58 on Sep 12, 2017 |
