To be fair, there really isn't
But we knew it was going to happen anyway

Aizawa had to factor into her care somehow, unless I have forgotten other quirk removing people. The other alternative would be to have her like All for One, which might be one of the reason we are seeing the parallels with people with extremely powerful quirks.
The school environment, with kids, would also be better for her than a Quirk institute surrounded by doctors. Psychologically.

Anyone else think the reporters were right on the mark in saying that Mt. Lady and Kamui are dating? They always appear together, very plausible. And imagine their kiddos!!! Giant tree people! And that is how the Ent race was born in the MHA-verse.
I ship it.

There may be others involved with quirk removing powers, or other ways to neutralize quirks in young children. I doubt Eri is the only kid with a crazy powerful ability, nor do I imagine that Aizawa would need to be her sole caretaker, else he'd basically be her legal guardian at this point. Also, this is a high school setting rather than kids her age, and in particular it's a high school that's basically been bug light for villains to come assault them.
But, it's a high school with the main characters, so it'll have to do

Yes, Midoriya vs. Bakugou part 2 is almost certainly where this season of anime will end. It's a capstone to Bakugou's character arc this season, coincides with the beginning of the new school term, and allows Bones to tease Mirio and Overhaul for next season. The actual fighting portion of the License Exam arc is relatively short so there should be a good 3-4 episodes at the end focused on the fight and some other character stuff, like All Might's chat with All for One.
-
Considering the scare that the bullets were, how no one suspects Quirk transference, and the effectivenes of Aizawa in combat, I seriously doubt that there is another quirk eraser in japan.
Super powerful kids with uncontrolable quirks is the scare of the quirk singularity that was namedroped a few months ago. Someday little Ice9 will freeze every liquid on earth, or little miss black hole will just suck up half of earth.
-
hmm..are we supposed to care about the hero rankings?
I cared because I always wondered who number 2 rank was. And just to see at least top 10.
I like speculating who the kids would wind up as sidekicks with or interning under. Like. I'm 90% sure Bakugou wouldn't work under Best Jeanist. But now that I see Hawks maybe under him would be cool. Momo with Miruko? I just like thinking about possibilities and how pros that high in the ranks would act and look.
-
hmm..are we supposed to care about the hero rankings?
I think it is an interesting worldbuilding detail. It shows the commericialized side of heroes that Stained complained about and that we haven't seen often in the last fifty chapters.
However, I don't think it deserves the amount of panel-time it got (half a chapter). Since no one form 1-A participates in the rankings (and won't for a ver long time, maybe not even until after the series ends), it feels tangential to most characters and isn't that engaging as a result. The introduction to the new characters is also very bare-bones: just a character design and a couple of lines. That's fine when used for a single character, but feels insubtantial if your repeat it several times in a chapter. -
I would have aprreiate if the ranking was being done in the presence of the kids and we had their commentary.
-
^That would've been fun. Thinking about it we don't know who the students admire except for Deku, Bakugou, Iida, Todoroki, and Kirishima.

I wanna see what the top heroes are capable of power wise. Are they Captain Marvels and Thors or are they Falcons and Iron Fists. Was All Might truely a Superman in a Captain America world?
-
Reading some old shonen thread(mostly the reborn that resurected) I was reminded of something.
Usually manga's start slow giving you little stories to let you discover and get to know who will be your main characters. Reborn had the shoot you with naked bullet routine, Negima had his school sheningans, Naruto have the training period, Ippo has the time before the first tournament, Seven deadly sins has finding the sins period, HxH is the hunter exam etc… Then suddenly shit hits the fan, we switch gear and it's full on until the finish line.
Do you feel the exploration period was inexistant or too short in this manga or do you believe it was uneeded or done well enough?

Maybe Americans have more Flashy heroes but as far as Japon All Might was an anomaly(which isn't to surprising when it's the combined power of multiple generation). Their number 3 was a flyer and #4 was FiberControl. So it's more skills than super overpowered in this country.
-

*looks at Ochaco
Yea, it definitely could've been better/longer…
I don't think I would say it's 100% needed or anything though. After all, Naruto is an example you gave, and yet look at what ended up happening to its extended cast, namely Naruto's classmates. It's just really a matter of bothering to actually focus on the other characters when all is said and done. (And not breadcrumbs like what Jiro recently got.) As far as main characters go, I would say it's relatively clear who matters most: Deku, All Might, Bakugo, and Todoroki. The only one I'm skeptical of nowadays is Ochaco, who despite seemingly being the female lead, frankly hasn't really given off that vibe in forever. Unless you count whenever they remind us that she has a crush on Deku. I used to put Iida on here when I first began reading/watching, but he hasn't done jack since his encounter with Stain, so eh.
Anyways, considering the setting, it's hard to really picture what exactly could've been done all that much better than when we saw them applying to attend the school. Really if anything, my personal issue has often been the length. Many seem to be perfectly fine, or outright love that Horikoshi has arcs that usually are quick and short. But I dunno, sometimes I wished they were a bit longer. But then again we had the sole outlier in the Yakuza arc, and now I'm thinking maybe it's best this way after all. :ninja:
-
Rereading I kinda want Bakugou to work under Miruko lol. They both seem like the angry loaner type and that could be pretty hilarious. Tokoyami got some panels and now we get to see Hawks. So maybe he'll work under him.
-
hmm..are we supposed to care about the hero rankings?
Considering they were introduced in the manga in the beginning and this is the first time we are seeing how the ranks are correlated to the placement having more to do with approval ratings and popularity than overall strength; yes. Given how many of you complain about the lack of world building in this manga to see people still complain when it does do it is kinda ridiculous.

more than complaining..it just came out of nowhere and an entire chapter was dedicated to it, so i just wondered if it had some kind of direct repercussions on the story that we knew of. basically,the characters in the story make a big deal about it, but should we? or it's just a little wrinkle of "world building" like you call it?
-
Do you feel the exploration period was inexistant or too short in this manga or do you believe it was uneeded or done well enough?
Good question. Of all the examples you listed only Ippo and Seven Deadly Sins didn't feel like a complete waste of time in retrospect. Reborn and Negima had to completely reboot themselves so essentially nothing that transpired during the early portion of their respective manga were relevant to what they eventually became. Naruto just outright forgot what it established in Part I or didn'tt bother to develop its own setting and cast that were there since the beginning. In Heroaca's case I think it was fine enough just for the fact that it did a good job establishing the cast and who are the most important players with the most common complaint being the lack of world building (but I feel this is Hori avoiding the same pitfalls as Kishimoto) and Miro not appearing earlier.

I think that we can further divide the examples you are giving:
- Reborn and Negima go through a total genre change form SoL/harem comedy to shounen action. In Reborn's case it never goes back to what it was (my theory has always been that it was due to bad rankings before the change), while Negima alternates between action and comedy arcs. You may also add series like Medaka Box in this category, or even comedy series with serious arcs like Sket Dance or Gintama if you strech the definition a bit.
- The rest don't so much change their genre but rather up the stakes of the action after accomplishing an initial goal: now that the protagonists are hunters/ninjas/in the Grand Line, they can tackle more difficult challenges and make a bigger impact in the world around them. Some other series like SDS are not so clearly separated, i.e. we don't reunite the dull seven sins until after the enemy has changed from the Holy Knights to the even more powerful Ten Commandments.
I personally don't think BnHA has had a moment like this yet (and if it ever does, it will be of the second type). Even if the students now have provisional hero licenses, the main enemy is still the League of Villains, and while the retirement of All Might has been important for the world at large, the daily lives of our protagonists haven't been too affected by it.
However, I don't think that the lack of a moment like this has negatively affected the story, at least not for the moment. BnHA so far has been closer in structure to Harry Potter (school daily life with occasional interference from outside evil force) than Naruto (continued upward movement through the ranks with the goal of becoming Hokage). I believe that the series will stay like this until the LoV is defeated and then we might get a new story with the characters as actual heroes if the sales are still good and Horikoshi wants to continue the series. -
This episode reminded me that we've seen the heroes from the latest chapter before. MHA really does have a massive cast.
The whole commentary about society is still really good. Really on point stuff by addressing that the 5 are going against rules and the villains' strategy of undermining the proper order of society. They are taking advantage of the negative traits of the people and of the media.
Good stuff.
-
This chapter, how should I put it… The timing couldn't be more accurate.
-

He already does?
-
This was a great episode, but it's also where I started to dislike Iida.
He should have made a big boy decision and snitched, rather than display a total lack of leadership abilities for his class president position, resort to physical violence, and then get sucked into the plot anyways.
Horikoshi could have set it up so though he tells the heroes and they still end up in the precarious situation through some mismanagement, and Iida is able to stop them from fighting still.–- Update From New Post Merge ---
Edit: Take a shot everytime this series says society
-
As far as main characters go, I would say it's relatively clear who matters most: Deku, All Might, Bakugo, and Todoroki. The only one I'm skeptical of nowadays is Ochaco, who despite seemingly being the female lead, frankly hasn't really given off that vibe in forever. Unless you count whenever they remind us that she has a crush on Deku. I used to put Iida on here when I first began reading/watching, but he hasn't done jack since his encounter with Stain, so eh.
Funnily enough Iida is actually more relevant than Bakugou and has contributed more to the story. Bakugou spent one arc as a mcguffin and then was pushed to the background not really contributing to anything. It best to conclude that Horikoshi doesn't label whether one character is more important than one and just go through a rotation of the cast one after another obviously some characters are going to contribute to the narrative moreso than others but that doesn't mean they're going to take up focus from the rest of the cast. What you consider "breadcrumbs" are the basis of character development (getting to know the character and how their pasts tie into who they are now) not necessarily a complete change in character which is something One Piece has been doing for the past 20 years in fact one of the more consistent complaints is that the Strawhats don't get a whole lot of development barring Robin yet we know a lot about them through their backstories and general interactions between one another. Quite frankly compared to characters like Shino and Tenten who weren't even given backstories to the point where the anime had to actually give them personalities. In regards to Ochako its obvious that he hasn't forgotten her role and has been setting her up through the course of the story, really this is just impatience than anything else.

This still makes me laugh considering Food Wars just completed an arc that lasted 128 chapters, how everyone One Piece arc lasts 2 to 3 years top yet the Yakuza arc which clocked in at 40 chapters and lasted less than year was considered "too long".

I don't know how anyone could genuinely say he's the more relevant character. Horikoshi makes it very clear that he loves to develop Bakugo and give him moments, regardless of whether it has an immediately visible effect on the plot. He even allowed him to learn about All Might's secret. Hell, he literally just got an arc alongside Todoroki.
And I never asked for a complete change in character, so I have no idea where you got that from. Jiro's backstory IMO was weak and borderline random (the content of said backstory, not her having a backstory), and her role in this arc didn't amount to much. I didn't need her to fight or anything, it's just that she didn't have any real internal conflict or what have you either. Kust got over her brief bout of nervousness and put on a good show.
As for saying I'm impatient, we're as of now 184 chapters in, so you'll have to excuse me for rolling my eyes a little here.

1. I dropped Food Wars because said arc was awful.
2. I find One Piece to be a looooot more enjoyable compared to MHA, so yea, you definitely are far less likely to see me complain about the length of its arcs.
3. Your assumption is wrong to begin with, as I wasn't taking a jab at the Yakuza arc's length, but rather its quality. If that's what I can expect from his longer arcs, then I can see why people prefer him to stick to what he normally does.
Also where are you getting "too long" from…
-
I don't know how anyone could genuinely say he's the more relevant character.
Because Iida has been involved in more plot related struggles than Bakugou. This is just a fact.
Horikoshi makes it very clear that he loves to develop Bakugo and give him moments, regardless of whether it has an immediately visible effect on the plot.
And that's why he was absent from the manga for nearly a year? And that's why he didn't have any substantial dialogue during that arc yet Iida did when he encouraged Deku?
He even allowed him to learn about All Might's secret. Hell, he literally just got an arc alongside Todoroki.
That arc wasn't even about him that was more about expanding on Endeavor's character and he played an obvious bit role in all of it. He has not been relevant in this manga for two years now and you have the gall to still call him more relevant than Iida?

We've known about Jirou's interest in music for a while now its been sprinkled all over through the course of the manga from his parents being rockers to her having music sets in her room. She was also the reason that Class 1-A could get their presentation rolling because the arc was centered around that very thing. Once again your definition of character development is different from the actual definition.
As for saying I'm impatient, we're as of now 184 chapters in, so you'll have to excuse me for rolling my eyes a little here.
But you are being impatient. I'm not sure how you sat through One Piece waiting for Robin to be other than a walking snark machine until her arc finally came about. If Ochako was the main character then maybe you would have something to complain about but now you're just wailing that she isn't getting focus when it not needed at the moment.
2. I find One Piece to be a looooot more enjoyable compared to MHA, so yea, you definitely are far less likely to see me complain about the length of its arcs.
Okay you're just biased.
3. Your assumption is wrong to begin with, as I wasn't taking a jab at the Yakuza arc's length, but rather its quality. If that's what I can expect from his longer arcs, then I can see why people prefer him to stick to what he normally does.
That's subjective as hell. An arc's length have nothing to do with its quality. There's people who like the arc just as people who hate it you trying to push it to suite your own narrative is just really misinformed. But given your own false definition of character development I'm not surprised you came to that conclusion.
-
He already does?
I mean as an actual side kick? I don't think these intern things are permanent and we didn't see Tokoyami do anything since that arc was taken up by other stuff.
-
He has not been relevant in this manga for two years now and you have the gall to still call him more relevant than Iida?
Correct.
We've known about Jirou's interest in music for a while now its been sprinkled all over through the course of the manga from his parents being rockers to her having music sets in her room. She was also the reason that Class 1-A could get their presentation rolling because the arc was centered around that very thing. Once again your definition of character development is different from the actual definition.
No lmao, I'm not referring to her interest in music, we obviously already knew about that. What I'm referring to is her decision to become a hero over a musician. It was just information that really wasn't necessary to know at that exact point in time. But more importantly it gives us a conflict that has already been given a resolution, so I can't help but illicit a mere "Ok." after reading it. If it were something along of the lines of us getting to see the conflict play out entirely, where we got to gradually see the build-up to her decision sprinkled throughout this arc, I think that would've been really neat. What we got instead is frankly nothing to write home about as far as I'm concerned.
But you are being impatient. I'm not sure how you sat through One Piece waiting for Robin to be other than a walking snark machine until her arc finally came about.

Okay you're just biased.
I repeat, it's been 184 chapters… Uraraka is ostensibly the female lead, so yea, sorry for having expectations of said focus coming in a timely manner.
Also how the hell am I showing bias when you're the one who brought (and continues to bring) up One Piece to begin with?
That's subjective as hell.
I'm aware.
An arc's length have nothing to do with its quality. There's people who like the arc just as people who hate it you trying to push it to suite your own narrative is just really misinformed.
The emoji should've made it clear that I wasn't acting as if I was spouting some objective truth. My only point was to say that I can see why people prefer he sticks to shorter arcs, because at least if he fucks those up, you'll move on to the next one sooner rather than later. I still would prefer he'd make them a bit longer, but after the Yakuza arc, I'm snarkily pointing out that that preference clashes with my now established apprehension.
But given your own false definition of character development I'm not surprised you came to that conclusion.
Oh here we go…

Vigilantes chapter 30 is out!
! Lot's of characters is this one. Didn't think about it before but I'd love a spin-off starring heroes. Not anyone in particular, just give someone an arc then move to the next. An organization alternating bodies for trigger. Be cool if this was all funded by Overhaul, but I think its another group Overhaul eventually started working with.

Correct.
Alright. A character who has done nothing for 2 years is relevant

Why does there has to be a conflict? Why can't it just be that she decided she wanted to be a hero instead of folliwing in her parents footsteps? None of the characters have complex reasons to be a hero.
I repeat, it's been 184 chapters… Uraraka is ostensibly the female lead, so yea, sorry for having expectations of said focus coming in a timely manner.
So what you're saying is that Ochako has not developed in 184 chapters is what you're saying.

Well excluding the fact that he fell ill during that arc which made go on longer than expected sure but just blame it on his inability to write.

! The stuff about tranforming the bodies of people makes me think of the Noumus though, maybe those were AFO´s tests before the Noumus were a thing. Still, AFO influence appearing in Illegals would be surprising, Overhaul also sounds good.
-
Yeah I gotta disagree with Bakugou being less relevant than Iida. Aizawa refers to both Deku and Bakugou being the two that spur the class into action, either with words or example. Iida isn't really referred to that way and Iida has been not plot relevant longer than Bakugou's absence. Iida says he thinks of Deku as a rival but he's not at Todoroki or Bakugou's level. And Deku doesn't really seem to have him under the consideration. Bakugou drives Deku.
Bah. Because I'm in Germany I can't view viz's website.

And this is just flat out wrong. So basically without the designated rival tag people would never hold Bakugou in higher standard despite being in the background for two years.

Did that Yakuza arc really take 2 years? You'll have to remind me what Iida has done since the Bakugou rescue arc. I'm drawing a blank honestly. Also what exactly is flat out wrong?

What I'm asking for is not what I consider to be complex, but alright.
So what you're saying is that Ochako has not developed in 184 chapters is what you're saying.
Nope, I'm saying that said development/focus comes once in a blue moon.

Yup.

Since becoming a damsel in distress in Kamino his portion of the exam was skipped over and after his fight with Deku was reduced to background noise then will don't see him again for nearly a year so he could star in an arc that wasnt even about him. Even Iida had a monent in the Yakuza arc .

I haven't paid close attention here, because "THIS CHARACTER BAD!!!"-type discussions grate on my nerves like little else.
Disclaimer out of the way: Even if Bakugo wasn't the focus of the arcs, he was a part of them and gained and/or displayed significant development from them, and the fight with Deku after the exam was all about him and his issues.
He's a major character in the story, even if he doesn't get major focus 100% of the time.

@Purple:
There may be others involved with quirk removing powers, or other ways to neutralize quirks in young children. I doubt Eri is the only kid with a crazy powerful ability, nor do I imagine that Aizawa would need to be her sole caretaker, else he'd basically be her legal guardian at this point.
I am all for the world to expand and us being presented to other people with similar quirks but different applications. Like someone being able to create a "No quirk zone". Everything you stated as an alternative would be an interesting approach. Personally, I like when the world context grows in terms of technology or such.
Also, this is a high school setting rather than kids her age, and in particular it's a high school that's basically been bug light for villains to come assault them.
Even if the kids are not her age, I think it would be better than a lab institute. We also have Mirio whom is very close to the situation at hand, without a Quirk. We already saw that they are keeping each other company.
On the villains assault, I agree. If there is one other assault, I would assume it being the last, which will discredit U.A entirely. I am pretty much expecting this route, as the idea of the villain alliance kidnapping Eri seems very much alive.
But, it's a high school with the main characters, so it'll have to do
Pretty much. More than having no reasons to be there, I think it is the case of the author not expanding his world for her not to have to be there. Or showing us these alternatives, and telling us why they would not work. Unless the only other way for them to control such a powerful quirk is how they are treating All for One.

Since becoming a damsel in distress in Kamino his portion of the exam was skipped over and after his fight with Deku was reduced to background noise then will don't see him again for nearly a year so he could star in an arc that wasnt even about him. Even Iida had a monent in the Yakuza arc .
Hmm. I disagree.
To tack on with sgamer82. The exam was where Aizawa mentioned how he and Deku drive the students to be better. And also we get round 2 Deku vs Bakugou and he gets the truth from All Might. Iida isn't privy to that info. And Deku probably won't be dumb enough to tell anyone else. Bakugou and Todoroki were the main focus on the supplement classes, not Endeavor. Endeavour had like one or two things to say to all Might. But that was secondary to the training with the elementary school kids. Bakugou had a fairly decent breakthrough. After that we had him on drums working with his class. In this arc though pretty only him and Jiro got a bit more focus. But everyone other than Deku got overshadowed by Deku, Gentle and La Brava.
But again wasn't your point Bakugou was less important to plot than Iida? What exactly has Iida done since Kamino that was significant to warrant that idea? What has Iida done that makes him stand out more? Because I don't see it.

I think a byproduct of being inspired by superheroes is MHA having more attractive male characters than most current shounen. Pretty much every guy in Class A is good looking or at least have cute aspects of their personality. Some pro heroes tight costumes certainly don't hurt.

What would have been kinda neat is getting an idea for what people think of the more mutant looking people. Are Tokoyami or Shoji considered handsome? Or are people still drawn to more classically human?
It's hard to tell when we get instances like the former beauty pageant winner with her insane eyelashes, if that was a just a gag or typical.

Manga: Eri is officially Izuku's daughteru now? As for Tokoyami's apprenticeship under the guy who just happened to have been the third seat, I wonder if Horikoshi came up with that back when he was writing the traineeship and meant to delve deeper into it. But all the other stuff ended up taking presedence. It does look like Tokoyami will get some shine, which I always appreciate.
Anime: Izuku's voice actor is god.

Great point. We've seen dudes drooling over Mt. Lady and women over All Might, but part of that can be they're heroes. Celebrities/fame makes people more attractive. Then we have Todoroki. A guy considered the class hotties even though part of his face is scarred. But, he's got an awesome quirk so that might factor into it. Quirks=sexy? If that's true, what does that mean for the qurikless?

I'd think Tokoyami at least seem to be deemed handsome. He feels like he's drawn that way, although it's hard to deduce the sexappeal of a Bird Person. Shoji will probably be a lady killer on the basis of having 6 arms and being a brick wall of muscle.

Yeah I gotta disagree with Bakugou being less relevant than Iida. Aizawa refers to both Deku and Bakugou being the two that spur the class into action, either with words or example. Iida isn't really referred to that way and Iida has been not plot relevant longer than Bakugou's absence. Iida says he thinks of Deku as a rival but he's not at Todoroki or Bakugou's level. And Deku doesn't really seem to have him under the consideration. Bakugou drives Deku.
Bah. Because I'm in Germany I can't view viz's website.
Welcome to the chronicles of illegally installing the viz app to legally pay for mha one piece and others.
I don't know if still works, but if you can install the app and login with your account you'll be able to use it anywhere.
The app I managed to install it in android through the Amazon marketplace, there was an update today so at the very least I kind of still have access.
