Bakugo's ok but he's a huge goddamn rear end in a top hat who one time got so mad he was basically using lethal force against a peer and he didn't really get punished for it. Also the school should really consider giving him anger management classes. He needs them.

I dunno if i'd say he has a massive respect for people's abilities or anything but he takes things seriously. If the person he's fighting treats it just as seriously he'll respect that (unless it's Deku). Which is a big reason he explodes at Todoroki because the guy wasn't fighting seriously he was holding back. Which when combined with the fact he fought seriously against Deku of all people means Bakugo snapped.

Surprisingly Vigilantes has stuff that is kinda relevant to this arc. There was a whole chapter basically about Iida's brother and you learn more about him in it than in the series proper, and there's a couple of other sorta significant connections to the things happening in the show now as well. Even if its set years earlier. There's only a few chapters of it so giving it a read after this arc is done probably isn't the worst idea.

Stain's a crazy serial killer who thinks Shigaraki deserved to live more than a lot of seemingly decent folk including children. He's utterly terrible and a huge goddamn hypocrite, but he does have conviction. And he does value All Might as like the ideal hero, and much like every character in the series Midoriya reminds him of All Might. Anyway Stain sucks.

AVeryLargeRadish posted:Stain's ideology is pretty obvious, if you do your heroing to save and help others and not for money you're good in his book, otherwise why the rant about "money worshipers" after he came back to Hosu? Ingenium is part of a long standing hero family, a family who has made their livelihood by being pro heroes, they are exactly the sort of people that Stain would target, part of the old guard, protecting a society that Stain sees as corrupt. He talks about how he's interested in seeing Shigaraki's conviction, that he wants to see how he'll grow and develop a creed. Then he'll decide whether to kill him afterwards based on that. It has nothing to do with Shigaraki being useful to his goals (Shiggy's the one who wants to use Stain until he decides he hates him too much), he mentions how although they both want to trash society they're complete opposites and the type of person he hates more than anyone. But even so Stain values Shigaraki's half-formed creed, and lets him live based on that. Anyway, it seems that to Stain if your philosophy as a hero meets his standards he won't kill you but it doesn't seem Stain actually researches the people he attacks or try to understand what they value or believe in. Because from everything we've seen of Tensei he's a sincerely good person. He's basically to Iida what All Might is to Deku, and a great role model to him. Stain has his convictions and his creed but he just judges people based on his own warped perceptions. He's insane.

Stain seems pretty aware that he's a villain who should be defeated by a hero, even if he thinks what he's doing is right. But he's crazy so that probably doesn't register as a contradiction to him.

I dont really think Iida's problem is how he wants to be like his brother. That's like saying Deku wanting to be a hero like All Might is a major flaw. When Todoroki saves him he does that whole "set your eyes on the hero you want to be" thing and Iida remembers his "Ingenium, that's the name of the hero who will defeat you" spiel and that's treated as the moment where Iida starts resolving his issues. Because he wasn't acting like his brother he was lying to his friends, ignoring people in trouble and fighting for a selfish reason. That's not like Ingenium, that's not even like a hero. Thankfully he recognises this and when he gets back in the fight he's not just fighting for revenge he's fighting for his friends too. He takes a knife to the arm for Todoroki and everything. He's acting like a hero again, like the brother he admires and that's a positive thing.

MHA is better than many of its contemporaries about fanservice but it's also worse than some of its contemporaries about it too. So I don't know if comparing it to other jump series is the best argument. The series is in WSJ where fanservice is common so it's not much of a surprise it has some but that doesn't stop it from being pretty lame. Especially since Momo isn't even the first character with a quirk that makes them wear a sexy costume for the readers to look at.

Kild posted:She's the emotional center/support for the whole class. Is she? I mean Tsuyu's a fine character and all but there's not really enough screentime for her to really have that important a presence in the class. The same goes for most characters though. CharlestheHammer posted:I think it's more fans clamping on to those characters and desperately pretending it's because they are deep characters. I don't think anyone thinks Mt Lady is super deep or complex or anything. They just think she's got a nice concept and is fairly enjoyable which is all you need for a bit character that doesn't really have any role whatsoever in the story.

At the point in the manga this episode covered I liked Bakugo fine but a lot of other people's views of him kinda soured how I saw the guy. I thought of him as entertaining but like a really lovely person and the general impression I got from a lot of other readers was that they considered him a bully with rough edges but deep down a sincere and good hero, but I didn't get that from him at all and I think it kinda made me appreciate him a little less. I like him a lot more now though but until some later arcs I always found Bakugou easy to like and enjoy because he can be really entertaining, but kinda difficult to like as a character within the universe of MHA because he's just sorta awful and not a good person a lot of the time.

I am saying Shigaraki's kill count is higher than it is because I bet he wishes he had killed more and I don't want to remind him that it's still at 0.

Bakugou's quirk is just the ability to make explosions and Momo can do that and more. She legitimately has one of the most powerful quirks in the class. E: And I mean powerful as in strong and can be used to beat up the bad guys. Not just powerful as in "holy poo poo, her power has so many versatile uses and would be incredibly effective in a huge variety of situations'.

I don't think Shigaraki needs 1 minute of continuous contact. Just that after the fingers touch you will be disentigrated within a minute. And he's a dude that can keep up with Aizawa so he can probably survive until whoever he's fighting is dead.

Nephthys posted:He only disintegrated the skin of Aizawa's elbow though. I probably am underestimating him but from what I've seen Midoriya had a good chance of being able to elbow a crator in his chest. Can't Aizawa cancel the affect though? Most can't stop it once it gets going.

I think Anime watchers can also appreciate Aizawa Might, main character Kendou, and evil Mineta imo. Only a couple of parts of the picture reference stuff the anime hasn't gotten to and nothing really spoilery.

Still, great power, great responsibility, etc. etc. etc. I guess, but unlike Spidey Deku doesn’t really need to learn that lesson. He’s already showing great responsibility before he has any power. From chapter 1 he’s already the most heroic person in the story next to All Might. It’s why All Might made him his apprentice in the first place. There’s certainly some similarities there and all but I can’t really see Deku as being modelled after or directly inspired by like western Superhero archetypes.
