Mulderman posted:Really curious how the reception of this arc will be in the anime. It was pretty polarizing. Willing to bet it'll be at least a little better-received by nature of the pacing being less... bad due to the shift in format. Also, I think one of the manga's great weaknesses is that Horikoshi just isn't very good at fight composition, and that will probably be better as well. The actual story won't have this opportunity though, which is unfortunate. It's got some good elements but there are undeniably weak parts that bring the whole down. No specific spoilers from me.

Tsuyu was cool when the only thing I knew about her was her design but her total lack of presence or real personality beyond hurting Mineta (which is good) has soured me on the character.

The main problem with the "villains" thing was that her apology sucked and was just cowardly begging to return to the status quo.Expect My Mom posted:shonen rivals own dude. respect and admiration is inherent in A Rival Then the rival shouldn't be so loving awful that the hero's continued deference to them makes the hero look bad.

Mordaedil posted:Does it matter if one likes Bakugo or not? Do you have to like everyone for their stories to be interesting? Well, sure. But the reason Bakugo's abrasiveness is a problem is because of it I don't think his role in the story fundamentally makes any loving sense. He's pretty much omnipresent and a spotlight hog, and that means his incredibly one-note personality becomes outright exhausting as well as annoying. It's hard to really root for him because he so blatantly needs to get over his issues. And that, on its own, is fine. There are plenty of fine rivals that you can have fun rooting against in the history of fight manga. But you can't really do that with Bakugo either, because he is continually rewarded by the story, in terms of both material victories and validation of his strength as well as his perspective. He's a genius with the strongest superpower who always works the hardest, so uhhhhhhh why should I give a poo poo about his character arc if the story clearly doesn't? He's not becoming a functioning person at any appreciable speed, and the series seems to think he's hot poo poo so where's the room for him to grow anyway? I think the idea of Bakugo is really strong but the execution is just insufferable because his development, while not entirely non-existent, isn't being dramatized well. Most of his "growth" thus far has been very conspicuously crafted to preserve his ego. Expect My Mom posted:i dont get this. shonen heroes typically have giant hearts so it doesn't bother me at all here. and also there things about bakugo worthy of respect. he's not entirely all talk. with how deku nerds out over every hero, it makes total sense he would still look up to bakugo. like synth said, he's a complete dweeb. Truth is stranger than fiction. Stories have to loving make sense. Deku's refusal to be mad at Bakugo at all makes him seem like a loving doormat. Also, "Deku appreciates strong heroes and Bakugo is strong" is not some great retort because I think this series is too obsessed with "strength" in the first place.

"Having to plan around his psychology to rescue him" is an example of the kind of validation of his ego that I'm decrying. The characters bend over backwards so that he doesn't have to change. That was the entire resolution of his final exam against All Might with Deku: Deku resolved to spend even more time catering to his tantrums.

Lord_Magmar posted:If she starts when does she stop, does she commit her life to endless slavery pumping out infinite goods? Is it morally right to tell her she’s a monster for not dedicating her entire life to producing goods she would then have no control over where they go or how they’re distributed. Should she pick and choose the distribution herself, thus spending less time creating goods and having to effectively play god. It's literally that one SMBC strip

The only things it really "spoiled" for anime watchers pretty much all happened in Season 4, and they were all blink-and-you'll-miss-it.

That movie was worth it for my slow realization that the villain was Johnny Yong Bosch if nothing else

I remember really not liking the final fight. I'll watch it again this weekend, see what I think now.

NieR Occomata posted:Does anyone know why episodes 77 on of the dub haven’t been posted to Hulu yet? They were supposed to go up on the 24th but I haven’t found any information on what the holdup is. I just checked my Hulu and it looks like they're going up on the 4th now?
