    I felt cheated when Todoroki didn't Prominence Burn the hell out of metal guy, but guess we'll save it for a real villain.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    The door(s) to random new power opens, and I couldn't think of a nicer guy for it to happen to. This will certainly change everything. Odd that All Might apparently never manifested any of these powers, or knew about them.

    Looks like OFA is still awaiting his trial (I remember discussing the logistics of 'keeping' versus 'killing' him a dozen or so pages back).

    Deku got to be Ururuaka's body pillow; aah, youth!

    Smells like the extra powers were an afterthought.

    The vestiges stuff has been a thing since forever though.

    why are you people using the word "vestiges" so much recently?! It started with Kumoko, now it's here. Pls dont :/

    "She's the only non-loli girl in the show, your honor!" will be my defense in court

    I call things what the subs call them.

    I don't think ANY of them knew you could do it, because I don't think any of them before Deku could. Hence the "now is the time" stuff.

    Just a (too) simple idea:
    -Deku was quirkless, so somehow it gives him the ability to use any quirk OFA has in store.
    With that idea it was never possible before to use previous quirks because all previous OFA heroes had a quirk before OFA

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

    Wasn't All Might also quirkless?

    As I was writing, I remembered that too but I don't remember the details...

    Pretty sure his body transformation was his quirk and had nothing to do with OFA. The reason All Might could use OFA so freely is because of the advantage he had with his body transformation. Not 100% positive but I think this was mentioned in S1.

    That makes so much more sense that I really wish you are right. Which means Deku can also use his body transformation.

    Unfortunately, after googling this topic, it seems he was indeed originally quirkless.

    How long ago was All Might's first fight against AFO? Not the second one that got the villain into Tartarus.
    That one basically crippled him and he went on doing hero work even though he could only maintain his super-body-form for like 5 minutes, yet no one noticed for quite a while.

    I'd say that after that, All Might couldn't possibly wield the power of OFA in any reasonable manner and thus nothing manifested.
    But he recieved the power as a teenager, so I'm not sure how long it took for him to take down AFOs syndicate..

    Thank you for confirmation, not sure why I had that assumption but I definitely thought it was a thing. Man I did like the multiple quirk development in the moment but now I kind of have to agree the manifest destiny bs somewhat undermines Deku's try hard attributes

    Nah, see, cause now he has to try hard all over again. Gotta learn these new powers from scratch.

    I think that happened five years before the start of the series. He showed Midoria the scar in episode 2.

    Some random takeaways

    Monoma pulled some weight even getting immediately subdued like the side character he is, but he was still fun to watch. As a hero, he'll be very selective about his sidekicks. Matter of fact, didn't Ururaka take down three of the five enemies this time? Without her quirk, essentially?

    I'm not going to say that Mineta is like pervert Light Yagami, but the dude knows his physics, apparently...

    Looks like Class B has the lion's share of manipulators- horn girl, reptile, and now ghost all have powers controlling floating somethings... Did they have any brawlers aside from TetsuTetsu and Beast man?

    I like that Eraserhead explains the learning curve difference in self teaching versus being taught- not everything has to be up to 'talent'.

    ...and a merry Christmas to you all!

    They pick the strangest places for insert songs, unless it is exclusively required for mid-season side stories, like the dance routine last season.

    I like Mineta being traumatized by Mt. Lady, and her interactions with the kids. These types of mini-hero adjacent administrative activities give the other characters a chance to get some spotlight and does some decent world building outside of beating down baddies.

    Do you think Endeavour's agency will count as a training arc?

    Character development I think.

    103 (s5 ep15)

    Looks like Sanji gets to be the next big bad, and Endeavor is as capable as ever. 100,000+ members? What is the population of Japan, is that over 1%? Why are Shigaraki's lackies at that table, too? Did I miss an arc?

    Looks like we're getting a continuation of the filler arc from season 2 next ep, but I don't mind more Froppy.

    Looks like that would be closer to .01%, oops.

    104

    Probably the weakest / least interesting filler episode to make it into MHA (I may have shook my head at the beach scene), but oh well. It looks like this might be tying into a movie, or another filer arc down the road? It's over and now we can get back to family trauma.
