Lmao I forgot Shoto used his own name. That is adorable and somehow worse than even Deku.

Bakugou's official hero name is still Baku Go since they hadn't accepted the one he came up with.

Kaminari's hero name is Chargebolt!?!?!?!?

suneater's power is also much more disturbing since it is now apparent that cannibalism will basically make him god king emperor of the world

good thing he's too mopey to do that!

Hey! Why can't the good guy be a cannibal for once! Also im surprised that's what people got out of it. I thought he only grew a big chicken claw and smashed the crystal guy against everyone else.

I think his powers are disturbing even without that. His Chimera Kracken technique is basically him turning into Cthuhlu.

He's like if The Thing was a superhero.

Oh thank glob that I wasn't the only one. I normally have some trouble following some mangas action, but thought I might have been the odd man out in trying to understand what was happening in these panels.

Never though about it, holy shit Ms. Joke is a gender bent heroic Joker

That is honestly could intentionally since the author is western comic fan.

I would call the implied people being turned into Noumu subplot 'dark', yes.
Or the whole thing with Overhaul and Eri.

Or Twice and Endevour and "implications" depending on your interpretation
It's no HxH or hell naruto and it would likely have OP reluctance of killing except in flashbacks and backstories (well there was magne for the named characters) but it's not happy go lucky

death is rough

once you start doing death it's difficult to take back the tone of your manga, especially if you kill off a non-villain or someone who the audience gives a shit about

True, but I think Horikoshi will handle it well when we get to it.

We know there are really dark people in the world already. The Muscle Dude that killed that Sauna kid's parents was a straight up serial killer. And Overhaul is already upping the anti with how casually he kills people. Deku is starting to get introduced to the dark elements of the world.

the translations every week are usually pretty bad, but this week was exceptionally awful. they even forgot to include the last page.

the other translation is a lot better, go read that instead.

So kirishima true hair colour is black? I hope this doesn't mean he is the traitor.
Click to expand...

What? That would mean he's like Twice with multiple indentity disorder. We've seen his inner thought process, no way he is a traitor.

Why would hair color matter in the first place? I think he just dyed his hair because he admires Crimson Riot and basically follows his legacy being Red Riot and all.

I am on the verge of liking these crow dudes, they look cool, they're all pretty tough. But their personalities are soooooooo....... Grunty? I just need one interesting dude to get me in all the way.

Man, his skin cracked and you can see the muscle. That must be excruciating.

And now some of you guys are suspecting him as a the traitor? Lol it's like clockwork.

I'm starting to think this is going to be the first "Long" arc. It might still be short compared to other shonen, but I feel like the 8 Precepts deserve extra screentime given how much of a step up they are in terms of threat.

I am not saying Kirishima is the traitor. Kirishima and Tsuyu are my favourites. If there is one bit of teasing of them being traitors I start to freak ot.
Btw Kirishima was shown with black hair all the way back to entrance exam.

There are workaround theories like Kirishima is a relative/friends with one of the League of Villain member (The Doomsday guy which has a tough exterior). Kirishima could have talked about his trip innocently.

I can see a Luffy/Cracker situation with Fatgum and Red Riot. Fatgum is going to absorb Red Riot and then burst him forward to knock one or both of them out. Red Riot will learn that he can focus his hardening at one point (in this case his forearms) and that he is actually a shield and a spear.

I forgot all about that traitor thing

I also already want to see the current cast with a few years on them and interacting with a fresh batch of kids. Like a 2-3 years older Midoria practice fighting with the top upcoming talent. It would be pretty cool.

Yep if a character says one bad thing they are suddenly the raitor at this point it could be true but i don't care anymore unless something was done with it
