I'm going in this blind since I've only watched the first three seasons after my niece said she loved it (her favorite character is Todoroki) and I finally got the time to watch it.

Lunatic Sledge posted:this makes sense but still throws me off, because Toad exists in the X-men canon and is the far opposite of popular In the context of Battle shonen and the powers in it, "is a frog" is extremely novel and interesting because the genre generally takes a very lateral approach to powers and emphasizes novel uses for them or sidestepping restrictions. In American Superhero stuff, "is a frog" is a relatively lame power since superpowers are more measured on their gross ability and not how clever you can be with them. Also Tsuyu is cute and has a great personality contrast to the rest of the cast. Lord_Magmar posted:Also the entire point there is that Bakugou has changed, he’s changed enough to accept help from Kirishima, the first actual true friend he’s ever had. Someone who he can act as an equal to without his own damage wrecking it. One of the things I find novel with Bakugo is that, for all of his anger and brashness, he's about as strategic a thinker as Deku, whereas one would expect a person with his archetype and powers would just blow things up with reckless abandon (though there's some of that early on, but focused on Deku).

Nessus posted:Mirio with OFA would be really hard to write around. Like it would have been a very sensible choice but it wouldn't have done much that was interesting. It'd be really funny the first few times he Harrisburg Smashed some dude in the dick by jumping up from the basement, though. Specifically, a naked dude showing up to punch a dude in the dick

Rhonne posted:I will never stop asking for "Into the Deku-verse". I still want to see a story where Deku goes full Iron Man/Batman to be a hero instead of getting OFA, but I heard there's a spin-off character who does that or something?

Funky Valentine posted:At least, when the amount of superpowered people greatly outnumber the non-superpowered people as opposed to the other way around which is what every "Mutant registration" story was. That's the sort of crux to the whole thing. The majority being registered and regulated is an enormously different situation compared to the minority being registered and regulated paritally because of the historical context of minorities being registered and tracked and the motivation and consequences for it. It's especially relevant for the X-Men, not just because of the above, but because it was a deliberate story point influenced by the creators, Jack Kirby and Stan Lee, who were both Jewish and children of immigrants.
