      I want to care about this fight, but I'm not feeling it. At least Mirko's still being her awesome self. Please, please wrap this fight up, Horikoshi. I'll take anything over this. Give me a couple chapters of Mr. Compress rotting in prison. That's fine.

        yeah, no emotional beats at ALL from this move. Sorry, Hori!

          Mirko shows us again why she's so popular. Can Stain come back now?

            Great chapter. Bakugo is meant to fight someone and Shoto winning early was an indicator. Looks like most of this was a way to shave down the professionals. Shiketsu HS have not popped up yet

                That's the only message Hori has.

                  Man, Mirio is a significantly better character than Deku and it really shows.
                  He does not deserve this treatment.

                    Reading all of this really puts it into perspective. I really wish Deku had an actual encounter with Stain during the Dark Deku arc because Stain is a really good counter to Deku, as both look up to All Might and both have the same ideals on what it means to be a hero, but go in complete opposite ways to achieve that. It would've been great, but I guess Horikoshi just wanted to begin wrappin up the story.

                        Dang, those are some juicy panels at the end. Horikoshi's always been quite good at close-ups of faces.

                        Mirio is a beautiful boy and has consistently been one of the best characters since his introduction.

                              Why bother with other battles when you can have Deku to deal with everything?

                                I'm sorry, I might be hallucinating things, was a hero in our series about heroes so ineffective and incompetent in buying 2 seconds of time that his only recourse was to present and slap his ass at the final boss?

                                And this was our lead up to Deku's epic return?

                                Lol this manga is a joke

                                  I always knew Mirio was a bit cheeky.

                                          The order of the fights in this arc is weird. Is the Uraraka fight still going ?

                                            Well, at least Deku arrived. I like the Mirio butt scene. That's part of his character and if you can't fight 'em, confuse 'em.

                                            @fana
                                            I'm guessing Hori will play the flashback game, showing us how Deku got to U.A. and then switch scenes to the other fights. Which is fine by me. I really want to see Uraraka and the AFO battle.

                                              Feels like I read 6 pages and it was over. I always wondered what he specifically did to get Nighteye to laugh. Didn't think I would see it, wow. Also Shigaraki looks ridiculous.

                                                    This was probably the least inspired chapter of mha. Anime filler padding for time type writing. Also terrible costume/design this chapter, which may seem nitpicky but really took away from the emotion it was meant to convey

                                                      I feel so disconnected from this fight. Maybe if I was younger this'd be the coolest thing ever, but I dunno. Deku and Shigaraki/AfO don't feel like themselves, it's like I'm reading about completely different people.

                                                        I read this chapter right after reading the latest One Piece chapter. Big mistake. But, I'm gonna try to be positive. I liked… the color spread. And Deku not raging out again. I dare anyone to complain about Crawler VS Number 6 in My Hero Vigilantes after reading the last several chapters.

                                                                I thought spirits would talk him out of it. I like that it was Mirio. He threw a tantrum and the chapter ended. This feels shorter than those final Bleach chapters.

                                                                I'd prefer if they switch to the other situations within the next 2 chapters.

                                                                        Ah, yes, the classic timer put on a battle. I do like Mirio being Deku's wingman but it looks like U.A.'s gonna fall eventually. Oh, and if anyone wants to explain exactly what the Second's quirk does I'd appreciate it.

Large part of the reason is probably the fact that I never really cared about Deku - Shoto and Bakugo were always my favorite characters, and Midoriya I only really found interesting when it came to his impact on them. But now you have Deku doing bloody everything, while everybody else is in the background.

                                                                          Frankly, Mirio was far more interesting than Deku, and was the main reason why I was able to actually read these Deku-focus chapters.

That is to say, All For One becomes weak enough for any ol' experienced hero to defeat but considering the circumstances it is Deku who does so.

                                                                                  This shit is bullshit and I know this has been repeated multiple times since like 5 years ago, breaks a lot of what the series stood for.

Maybe a chance to deprive Deku of his quirks and go back to what it should have been since the beginning: him proving he could be a quirkless hero.

                                                                                    But honestly, whatever. The only reason I still follow MHA is in the hopes Tsuyu appears on a chapter. Her aside, I lost interest in absolutely every aspect of this. Can’t even muster the effort to understand what is going on in half the panels.

                                                                                          I'm not expecting any good twist from Hirokishi by now, so I'm going to assume that somehow the OfA and AfO will interact and give us the flashback that is missing so that we can get an "emotional" resolution to the conflict of the Super bros.

                                                                                          Got a bit lost in the action, but it was a decent read.

Deku's doing good but I wish we'd seen him struggle more to master all this quirks. He worked for every inch of power in the beginning but Hori just stopped doing that.

                                                                                            And put me on board for Spinner having a copy of the All For One quirk. Unless he's just gonna break out Gigantomachia and he's the real Ace up AFO's sleeve.

I quite liked it, with the Modern Superhero Story Caveat that while using excessive force, the villains points are so valid that they need to be somehow addressed later or the chapter will retroactively be rendered limp.
