    Exactly. Good posting. 👍

    I thought Batman's (in this example) logic was that unassailable boundaries are what separated him from the supervillains he fought. To kill one would mean he 'stooped to their level', and is no different: doing something he is not authorized in his legal power as a vigilante to do. That the justice system who handles these criminals are both sympathetic enough and inept enough to incarcerate and again lose them again is more in service of the story; if the Joker is a good villain, why kill him?

    All for One being alive could be because we was not killed in the arrest. For all we know, he may be on death row. It's been only about a month since the battle. Trials can take months or years to set into motion, and he surely won't be killed while awaiting trial, unless someone took things into their own hands. Due process. You can argue that 'special circumstances' should skirt it (kill him now), but who makes that call, and is that person willing to take responsibility for the legal and criminal consequences? All Might had the best chance to kill him during their fight, but only could muster enough strength to incapacitate him, and the media was watching closely so none of the first responders had a chance to 'accident' him to death, which would have required pre-meditation to begin with.

    Clearly the authorities feel confident in his incarceration (auto-guns, brainwave monitoring, ect), so there is no need to kill him if there is any possible usefulness to him being alive like information or the benefits of studying him.

    ^ all of that.

    Of course, he WILL get out. Because story. But that's the best explanation in-universe.

    Special measures are taken all the time, only covertly. The people on top (or around there) make the call. You'd be naive if you think everything in the world revolves around due process. Even normal people cheat very often (pardons, assassinations, kidnappings, etc.). Just tell the masses All for One died from the complications of his injuries and experimental Frankenstein body.

    As for the Hero Academia world, the only reason All for One is alive is to escape later on. He seems as confident in escaping as the authorities are in keeping him locked up.

    I mean, are they even sure machine guns can kill him? What if he has a quirk that allows him to turn to smoke? What if he's there to break the other inmates out? Did the authorities not think of that because it is so unimaginable and impossible (except Joker, etc.)?

    Also, I never said or even suggested One for All should kill him. Of course he wouldn't, but is the rest of their government so stupid and justice-obsessed too?

    I'm pretty sure you could kill All for One by turning off his life support.

    That guy looks like he needs it.

    You'd think a regeneration Quirk would be one of the first things he took. I mean survivability is important

    As the fight comes down to predicting his prediction, Izuku should have a good time against him once he gains more combat experience.

    (though.. you know... if you can't breathe while permeation is active, then you shouldn't talk while your face is emerging from a wall. On the other hand, I greatly enjoyed how his verbalised, named attack was the total fake-out.)

    His quirk makes no sense either way. How can he partially permeate his body without royally screwing up his blood flow?

    Weird place to end the season, but okay.

    I assume he's able to have permeation not active on his whole body at once.

    But to talk you can't permeate your thorax.

    To a point I can bend the rules a bit about bloodflow since it's kind of his body, but he doesn't "own" the air in his lungs

    More nonsense from this show.

    How is a body blow from some dood who can pass through things knock out Izuku? He is tough enough to resist Bakugo's explosions... No human body can be built enough to compare. Also, why didn't hardbody dood, uh, use his hard body? A body blow would be meaningless against that...

    It's like everyone just forgot to use their quirks just because.

    Bad writing.

    SIGH.

    My bad explanation, with my bad hypothesis:
    Permeate your fist some distance into your oponents body. Then un-permeate it when at the right depth.
    You get the forward impact deeper, passing through hardening and muscle barriers.
    Possibly you get something else from the quick rejection the guy was talking about when you un-permeate inside a solid.

    I know it hasn't been explained that way, or explained at all. And no image could lead to what I wrote.

    Back to something else: he said he's blind when in permeate mode because his eyes can't bend/capture light anymore.
    I'm pretty sure he should also become invisible.

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.

    Exactly. And completely soundless too. He'd be the perfect assassin, assuming it's even feasible to move around like that, which it apparently is...

    Bakugo is NOT great btw. He's like a shallower Ranta. At least Ranta was never a bully.
