Kirishima's obviously the traitor with those evil eyes
but we don't know Hagakure's eye color either
she could have like super villain eyes -

she could have like super villain eyesLol. Part of me has been thinking Kaminari could be the traitor. He's gotten more focus than Tooru. It would definitely hurt more. But another part tells me that would be too similar to another series with a likable moderate perv being a traitor of sorts.
-
I just realized that Hagakure will face the team with the guy with the Black Quirk and if his quirk is turning black anything as people says it does, I guess we'll finally see how Hagakure looks like.

! Yah lol. I wasn't sure if I should be vague talking about a plot twist from another series.

Is she actually dressed or just naked?
Could you put in spoiler please. Someone might be just be discovering the manga and not be aware of that part.

You should spoiler yours too since you quoted. I adjusted my post.

Good idea. I took care of it.
High-end is Doomsday from "the death of superman".
I am trying to read and catch up on my DC knowledge(Flash is easy and New super-Man is interesting in how they fold asian notions and lore into it) and that got me thinking about other comics I read. And thinking about the bunch of superman in the world now(I don't like that) it got me thinking about last time there were multiple superman(worked because it was about picking the legacy) and I ended thinking about the death of superman.
In it Doomsday appeared without much build up(It was the first time he appearded, mauled down the justice league of the time, and just became the guy that killed superman(in time where resurection wasn't really a common thing). Big Monster appear without any build up, create the biggest crisis where no one but our top hero can take him on and end up living a permanent scar on his record(everyone know Doomsday as superman's killer and Endeveor got the scar).
Of course both stories have reedeeming factor. Doomsday and the resurection are bs but I love the character of superman in that story and how is death is handled in-universe and the Endeveor fight seems to open interesting storylines.
But back when I first read the story I didn't know that Doomdsday was a new thing. I just believed it was from an old comic I didn't know. And I just love that countdown. Later I learned it was his first appeareance and could somewhat understand that it was a bad idea but couldn't really feel it. Now with High end random appearance but massive impact on Endevor I can finally properly feel the frustrations and problems with the lack of build up for such a big milestone.
-
Hmmm. I guess High End seemed a tad sudden. But we have been given snippets here and there of the LoV in between other stuff. I mean I guess the Nomu product isn't that random. Just the encounter felt a bit weird. Timeline wise it definitely felt weird cause we were shown the Top 10 broadcast then this meeting. It sorta felt like they watched this the day after. In general that whole Endeavor mini arc seemed a bit strange. But maybe I just need to re-read a few chapters ahead of that to see how it all fits. Weekly it definitely stood out like a sore thumb.
Side note. This seems like some music that's gonna get played in the next episode? Or the one after? I love it so much. I have high hope's lol.

Vol. 20 Omake scans (raws)

! Hagakure is bald. That's amazing! Seriously, bald women might be the rarest thing in manga.

Mor likely that…[hide] her hair is also invisible. Maybe she is using clothes woven with her hair as her hero uniform and we wouldn't know.[/hide]

In the link posted above they also showed what horikoshi fixed from the golden week, chapter 182. Looks a lot better obviously once all the sketches were fixed.
-
Here's the updated Ch. 182, if I'm allowed to post it here. Uses the JB translation.
-
I didn't notice before but Dark Shadow is playing the symbols lol. I kinda had forgotten that this was a partially sketchy chapter. Definitely nice to see it fixed up.
Mirko is much shorter than I would have thought. She seemed kinda Amazon-ish.
I also like the detail of the uniforms being slightly different depending on departments.
-
I love Mirko's buff physique. Reminds me of Wonder Woman.

Oh. That makes sense. Too bad, it would've been awesome.

Fun fact, at first Hawks was designed to look like Takahiro from Oumagadoki Zoo (reusing the design like he did with Gang Orca), but the movie staff wanted to use the character design and Hori let them (pretty happy as well, he likes that people still remember his other series)
!
Source: [I](
) like more the current Hawks, but I like how Hori still thinks fondly of Zoo, makes me hope that Mirko will end having screentime and good fights (as well as Shiina´s moveset) Sensei Bulge gets no love though.
-
Bird people are cool and all but Hawks is too cool as he is now. Just a fabulous character design.
-
^ Agree, Hawks is way too hot now for me to want his birdman design
-
Same. Besides, if we want bird people we've got Tokoyami.
-
Wait, if he was going to recycle him, how important is he?
-
Hori really likes reusing designs from Oumagadoki Zoo, so far we had one one-scene character (Toy-Toy) and two heroes (Snake Girl and Gang Orca), also three backgrounds cameos but those doesn´t really count. I wonder why it doesn´t bother me at all, but it does when is Mashima the one reusing his designs…
Wait, if he was going to recycle him, how important is he?
Maybe he became more relevant after the re-design? Takahiro doesn´t have a bad design by all means, but it really doesn´t suit well the current Hawks position and story.
-
It is a professional ambition of getting something out of time that seemed wasted.
-
It's probably not as annoying cause Zoo had far less exposure. I still haven't ever read it. Also Horikoshi's designs are more interesting to look at. Mashima's characters all look pretty similar. With a few here and there that stand out.
-
I am not a big fan of Oumagadoki designs, to be honest, and Hawks not getting Takahiko was definitely great.
Sakamata was my favorite (both design and character), so I was really happy when he debuted on MHA as Gang Orca (yeah, I can't help but see them as the same character. Almost as if an actor playing two different roles), but other than him I think the only one I would really want to see also making to MHA is Shiina - I don't know if Mirko hurt his chances being a rabbit-person already, but anyway I think his chances are small with him being the main.
The elephant and the narwal would make good additions too I suppose. I liked their designs. No idea about the circus people, I only forced myself to go as far as the end of the Aquarium arc.

Just gonna leave this here.
From Hori's twitter, which is always worth checking:
Oh wtf!!? Did he draw that? Or was that a fan's drawing? Lol.
-
I love bird people, too, so I really dig proto-Hawks.

Another great chapter
https://readms.net/r/my_hero_academia/197/5331/1
btw, I've noticed this for a while but the JB translations have been generally not good and inferior to MS. In this particular chapter, the difference was somewhat obvious and a few things confused me in my first reading of the JB version.
-
good chapter
love me some strategic fights
-
I think that they could have countered shindo with rotating codenames. But they had little time to come up with that, beast was overly cautious and the rest not cautious enough.
-
That fucking drop kick from Tsuyu!!
So good. -
I really wish that we get all of them, but experience says otherwise.
At least we got details on beast and scales quirks. And for sure we are getting the other shindo fight.
-
God damn, I may be biased because Tsuyu, but this chapter was fucking amazing!!! That's one pure action chapter on point!
I really loved Mineta legitimately excited about Tsuyu doing fine! Hope someone notes her physical strength at some point, btw.
And now her team got their victory, I am ready to root for Class B from now on.
-
I like Shishida's hero name. Made me remember the Beast of Gevaudan from 18th century France. Totally forgot about that thing. The movie Brotherhood of the Wolf was made after it, sort of ;)
-
One thing that worries me is that I hope they don't go down the route of making shinso lose in the class B team, just to push the point of how class A is more experienced with working as a team. I also hope some of the class A teams do end up losing to their class B opponents (including maybe even dekus team)
-
I dont understand anything that happens anymore.. Like, I read chapters so many times and I struggle to understand the action ensuing.. am I just so dumb or what ;-;
-
Wait, did Shiozaki change her hero name?
I guess Maria was deemed too inappropriate?
-
@NER:

Maybe you are just rushing. But here:
! Before the action:
- Following next chapter, Class A knows where Shishida is because Kaminari's pointer is attached to him. Shishida knows where Class A is because he can pinpoint their location through smell, but since they all smell like Tsuyu he can't tell which is which.
- Shiozaki sends her vines to cover the area and arrest the enemies while keeping a safe distance since they can't tell who they are facing. Shishida gives her their location.
- Class A sees the vines coming from Shishida's location, suggesting Class B team is all together.
- Rin realizes Class A are moving straight to their location, so they must have figured out a way to track them. He notices Kaminari's pointer on Shishida.
- Before they can remove it, Shiozaki brings someone. They can't react properly until they see who it is because Asui scent on everyone.
! Action:
- Since the whole team is together, Kaminari tries to shock them all at the same time.
- Shiozaki tries to keep it from happening the same way she did on the sports festival. It won't work, though, because this time there is the pointer to attract Kaminari's electricity straight to Shishida.
- Before Kaminari can shoot, Rin uses his scales to remove the pointer from Shishida.
- Shinso uses the confusion created to sneak in and gain control over Shiozaki by copying Rin's voice. It is revealed this was actually what Class A was aiming for, with Kaminari using Class B fear of his quirk as a way to keep Shiozaki attention and vines focused on him (otherwise the spread vines would have sensed Shinso)
- Rin tries to get the exact location of Shinso and Asui from Shishida, but now Shishida is afraid of falling into Shinso's control and moves into action alone while responding only through gestures (he can't tell if it is really Rin talking to him, so he refuses to answer verbally).
- Unable to get teamwork to function, Rin tries to release Shiozaki from Shinso's control by hitting her with his scales, but Asui (who was "invinsible") sneaked in and takes Shiozaki away from Rin's range.
- Rin screams at Shishida to ignore Shinso and focus on taking Asui down, but Shishida ignores him probably assuming it is Shinso using his voice again.
- Asui takes the chance to overpower Rin while he is distracted evaluating how his team communication was ruined by Shinso just being there.
- Shinso uses his clothing to hit Shishida on the head with a pipe, but not enough to damage him. Asui throws Rin at Shishida's head, who, ignoring Rin voice again, is hit and knocked out.

You're probably just fatigued in one one way or another. Take a break from Manga for 2 weeks or more and come back. Can guarantee it will be different.

I figured it could go one of two ways. Shinso loses while on team B. Feels he has better synergy with class A and goes with them.
The other scenario is team B wins. But Monoma is an insufferable dick and Shinso finds it off putting. Decides to go with class A.
-
Nice chapter. Never thought I would use quick thinking and Kaminari in the same sentence.
Gevaudan sounds a little too creepy considering the real life, and yet it was approved but the awesome Alien Queen not.
There is no way that Ibara ain't Christian. NO FRIGGIN' WAY.
I'm betting that team Todoroki or Team Bakugo will lose their battles, and I definitely could see Shinso team B winning to prove how powerful he can be. -

I did not know about the origin of the name. That is a really dark dark inspiration for an hero name.
And that doesn't help me stop imagining that kid as 40 year old cynic drunkarrd that has seen it all and is copiing with life with dark humor and fun violence.
-
By the way, what Is Hiryu's hero name? It's actually in Chinese.
Got any idea, CCC?

…I have the answer straight from editor Yoritomi, but I shouldn't say publicly since it's not clear how editorial will handle it :P
-
…Can I say it?
I don't actually know much about this myself, but from what I can find, his name means "Dragon Curtain Child".
The Dragon Curtain refers to a type of curtain that's draped around the coffins of Chinese emperors and such. Fitting, seeing how Hiryu has dressed himself up as a Jiang Shi.
And his name is pronounced (in Chinese) Long Wei Zi. (Long2 Wei2 Zi3 for those who know how to read pinyin.)PS. CCC, I caught you on an episode of the One Piece Podcast a couple weeks back. Just thought I'd let you know I really enjoyed it and you should totally go on more often.
-
Class B has to win at least one of their rounds, otherwise they're just going to be a permanent joke that's always behind. And dramatically, they should really win about half their matches so the final round can be the actual decider.
We'll see how it goes. I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the matches get skimmed over and left for the anime to fill out… but its ideal anime filler. Something that would take months to do in the manga properly can be left for the show to fill a couple weeks with. (And if One Piece's anime was on the ball would take more advantage of such setup.s)
-
Froppy for match 1 MVP!
Yeah, Shishida had a good run but Froppy is the shizz net. Mind games and good plays won the match. Vine is a scary an AoE fighter. Props to her too. And, what's up with that stem on Mineta's hair? Guess he got a power-up.I really hope every match gets three chapters at the minimum. I don't see Class A steamrolling Class B. The law of shounen dictates it'll be two wins each then the decisive fifth battle with Team Shinso v. Team Deku.

You can say whatever you want! I'm the one with NDAs.
And thanks :P
I'm pretty shy in those settings, so…we'll see.
