I guess that is true. When the reporter was narrowing down suspects he didn't mention her but from what I remember he didn't really mention anyone outside of Bakugou, Midoriya and Todoroki as by that point he had already figured it out.

He only talked about the Top 4.

I think that was an oversight. The manga never shows him eating and stuff like that.

I'm sure that the rest of the season is basically going to be Deku having to track down Eri to say "I'm sorry I didn't rescue you sooner" and he'll grow from it, but seeing All Might's 2 favorite proteges have an abused child in their arms and give her up by walking into a dark alleyway with a notorious criminal is just :psyduck:


yall are superheroes not cops, rescue the drat girl even if it makes the trail go cold

Another part of the problem is that they don't have any proof that Chisaki is a criminal.

Deku is pretty dang fast. I feel like just because you can see him coming doesn't mean you can move your body fast enough to dodge!

Nighteye compared him to a slower Grand Torino.

Also most quirks are pretty small and lame.

Also the 80% refers to the general population. Pretty much everyone that is born now has a quirk, it's the older people that don't have as many quirks.

Yeah iirc All Might mentioned that quirklessness was more common when he was younger, and the impression I get is that quirks are not a recent enough phenomenon that he could be referring to people born before quirks started appearing.

He said while it was not as rare nowadays it was still pretty uncommon.

Quirks have been going on for I think 5 generations now. As Izuku's mother was a 4th generation.

A lot of this is tied up in the fact that as far as we know even in the manga you need a hero license to use your quirk outside of private property or for work.

Ochako mentions that part of her desire to become a hero is to get licensed so she can also help her parent's business.

No that's for being a Hero. You can get a normal license for using your quirk in work related things. Her parents told her not to concern herself with that and to focus on her own dreams.

She wants to make a lot of money being a hero to give her parents a good life.

So Suneater's just a shapeshifter with a gimmick! A fancy Animorph. I don't really get the hype other characters have for him, seems like that's a relatively common quirk.

Cause of how he can freely mix and choose characteristics.

Normally with a shapeshifter you just turn into thing. He can turn his hands into thing the rest of his body into different thing, and freely mix and match creatures traits and even merge them.

I guess if you desperately need someone to reach inside of you and move your heart *slightly to the right* and then remove their hand without introducing any foreign matter or actually taking anything out of you, Mirio's your boy.

Plus he can't see in side so any overlaps will just make his hand shunt out.

For fun little facts we have actually seen the big scary guy in the flashback before. He was shown after Stain's defeat along with the other new villains like Toga and Dabi. He was listening to the radio in the woods.

There is a difference between predicting that you need to dodge and then punch a guy so hard he flies into a wall and being able to actually do it through.

As for Toga, I just accept she's going with knives in the same way Eraser is good with his wire things.

He did not punch him. He tossed three 10 pound weights into his gut.

ninjewtsu posted:

What I really like about the miro fight is you get to see the effect of his tutelage under nighteye, and it seems like subtext to me that this was a substantial part of why he was able to fight overhaul quirkless. He spends the entire fight 1 step ahead of overhaul and two other powerful villians and the only reason he doesnt completely curbstomp them is because he also has to juggle protecting a child on top of the 3v1. And he's doing it by reading them, predicting their movements, and quickly finding the most efficient action he can take, which is also exactly how nighteye has been shown to fight. Nighteye can beat opponents many times stronger than him just by predicting their moves: he's effectively quirkless outside of that, and mirio put in the same position performs pretty well himself.

There were four villains.

This was kinda funny until I checked and apparently this is basically a redraw of the disastrous Seven Deadly Sins season 4.



lmao

Appearntly the fight before it, did not make good use of its budget either.

There's significantly more wrong with that fight than just it's animation, but I suppose part of that has the source material to blame.

I kind of liked the source material until a little before that point. But eventually every fight became one sided a blowout always in favor of one side or the other next to no inbetween. Even that terrible fight shows a bit of it. It's utterly one sided for one of them, until it's suddenly one sided for the other guy.

Giran seems to be pretty good at finding people in general. Well, outside of Muscular and Moonfish- who were just people who wanted to murder with impunity and got in because they were strong.

Outside of them it's pretty clear he selected for "criminal whose beef is very specifically with hero society/society in general, inspired by Stain"

Magne seemed to be a one th exceptions who was just a vet who had no issues joining but was not an unstable nutcase.
