The story is pretty good outside of a few things. Weekly readers grumbled about a good chunk of this seasons first arc because Horikoshi was dying from the Japanese flu and apparently kinda depressed for most of this arc- so us manga readers were treated to multiple short chapters, some chapters with unfinished art, and a few flat out absences. That all combined really dragged the whole thing out while also giving they impression stuff was kinda hacked down. On re-read I like it a lot more even if there are things that annoy me from a writing perspective.

Yonkou and some others have said that the scheduling for this season is very very good which generally means nothing will look like trash- even filler.

Heroes are cops in this world in that they're regulated and licensed. She wasn't wrong, and they were insanely lucky everything worked out as well as it did. Bakugou being the way he is kinda always felt like to me that he was the Zoro of the series in that he's set up as this ringer who will never lose a fight when it counts so you can't really just say "yeah he's gonna job" when he gets a fight with a genuinely top tier opponent you think the MC should be fighting. Like if you had me pick between Todoroki or Bakugou as to who could possibly die in an act 3 stinger to show that things are really serious, I'd say Todoroki is dead meat despite him generally being shown as still being stronger overall.

I thought the recap was funny because it lampshades the fact you can absolutely see something funny is going on if you look into Midoriya at all.

Nephthys posted:I kind of took this as an instance similar to meeting Shigaraki in the mall. Even if they had been able to get Eri away safely short-term, Overhaul wouldn't have let them go quietly and starting a fight in the middle of the street with a top-tier villain puts alot of people at risk and Overhaul could kill a loving lot of people really quickly if he wanted to.

The Nakamura cuts in MHA are so weirdly picked half the time. After the one solid gold one (Deku vs Todoroki), his first cut this season is that fight between the two giant guys right at the start of the episode.

Aizawa got a pretty extensive backstory flashback in the Vigilantes manga just recently that puts a lot of how he acts into context. Vigilantes is very good and I recommend it highly.

X muties can do some really wacky poo poo but that's mostly due to cape comic writing letting powers get extrapolated into insane poo poo. Cyclops went from eye lasers to shooting kinetic energy to having his eyes be portals to the punch dimension.

The doggy/cat kemonomimi girls from an episode or two back made it in but you missed out on a bipedal rooster guy. Also the mall shot from the second season was missing some fish people and a family with toast for heads if I remember right.

It was a good episode but no big twist or action, so I'm not surprised. Feels like all the lead up to the Forest Lodge attack.

Kung Food posted:I often think about how a lot of the powers are wasted on being a better fight man. Like how the guy who can turn nuts and bolts gigantic could eliminate the need for mining or the girl who can make almost anything from her body should have a higher calling than crime fighting. Worst of all is the girl who becomes a super genius when she drinks tea. I can think of much better ways to use that then coming up with the optimal strategy for stopping a purse snatcher. Ochako mentions that part of her desire to become a hero is to get licensed so she can also help her parent's business.

The way I always understood OFA is that it's a gigantic, ever-growing well of power you dip out of. All Might specifically refers to the holder as a vessel- so basically you're a vessel, you tap into OFA and fill up, and depending on how swole/good you are at controlling it you can handle different amounts of it. All Might still had whatever power he had taken from OFA when he passed it on, and that slowly dwindled until it ran out.

I guess the detailing probably would've been a bitch but Kirishima gets way more hosed up in the manga. He's literally covered head to toe in blood in it.

Another thing to note is that this is about where Horikoshi basically died drawing this arc. He missed a week, and these chapters were really short. We've covered like 4-5 chapters or so in a single episode compared to 2-3.

Horikoshi himself said he misses explaining it in the manga, but Rappa's quirk is that his shoulder/arm joints are essentially frictionless so he can throw impossibly hard/fast punch barrages without using much energy or stress on his body.

I'm sure the rest of the online discourse will be "Why did Magne have to be the one who got blown up"/why was Magne designed like that, but I like that scene because it served a dual purpose of underscoring that the League is actually a more closeknit organization than Overhaul's despite being mostly comprised of murderous psychopaths and misfits- and underscoring what a gladhandling prick Overhaul is.

There's a bit that gets lost in this section with narration but they did a decent job I think. I think they could've been a little heavier handed at the end explaining that Mirio managed to survive fighting Overhaul for several minutes while quirkless before he finally gassed out, since it looks like that all happens really quickly still- but the effort was good.

They did an okay job trying to rework everything around cutting out the narrator from the manga, but it still kinda doesn't work. The harder hitting context is kinda lost... basically Nighteye goes in and using his foresight- he knows he's going to eventually lose. In desperation he looks further into the future hoping to see where Eri is saved and Deku/Lemillion are alright and sees Midoriya die/Overhaul escape with Eri. I think Nighteye basically willingly jumping to his death in desperation is sort of lost in how they cut it up. Not sure how else you could really get that impact though. In the manga when he's getting skewered and he looks into the future only to see death I think his despair is captured better.

I heard a lot in the runup to this season about how much better the team's production schedule was this time than it was for like Season 3, and while it's kinda showing in some regards - the story boards and character art are probably as good as the show's had so far - they really haven't even attempted anything as dynamic and ambitious in terms of flowing animation as, like, Deku vs Muscular, let alone any of the show's more famous highlights.
