"It's illegal to make anaesthetic and put them to sleep"
The fuck lol.
First responders do this all the time.

I think it may have been the use of anesthetic on an unwilling participant, but yeah; a strange thing to take time to mention when killing is not off the table as far as I know. Maybe it just serves to demonstrate what people who play by rules have to navigate in real time.
I think Darth is right here, but I'm not sure what kind of "license" these kids have.
Isn't there this rule where you can't do actual hero work without a license unless it's just support or something?
I think killing IS illegal. That's why it was such a big deal that Hawks did it anyway.Originally Posted by Netflight

You're missing what I'm saying. When she says "It's against the law", she's not saying it's against the law to use anesthesia on a villain, she's saying it's against the law for CREATI to use anesthesia on a villain. Because she's not a licensed hero. It's against the law for her to be fighting ANY villain without special permission.
That's why Midnight is telling them to do it anyway.
The situation being dire doesn't magically make it legal. It's STILL illegal. It's not like they're acting in self-defense. Midnight is actively sending them to engage Gigantomachia.
She might get in trouble for it later, but the situation is such that she's willing to suffer that punishment later.
It's also possible the law will look the other way, like they did with Stain. But, again, that still doesn't make it legal.
Episode 121:
This is so fucking dumb. So fucking dumb. You really must shut off your brain 100% to get through this anime :/
EVERY TIME slowmotion will save the day. Every time.
And, ofc, only Shigaraki can throw his item so fast that nobody can dodge. And why did all the students throw all the boxes simultaneously when one is enough? Could have had many more chances.
And Shigaraki just can do whatever the writer wants him to do apparently. Did he really take a 100% One for All-punch and not even flinch?
"She's the only non-loli girl in the show, your honor!" will be my defense in court
Nomus can take a fuck-ton of them, so yeah.. The fact that he caught it in his mouth is funny though.And Shigaraki just can do whatever the writer wants him to do apparently. Did he really take a 100% One for All-punch and not even flinch?

I think what we need to remember is that even All Might at his 100% did not easily subdue villains. He still had a tough time and didn't really OPM them all.
Since this entire story is weird in that physical training can make heroes with non-physical toughness related quirks become actually tough, I can accept villains being tougher for reasons.
Peace.
Ep 122
----------------
Really cool ep, starting with Eraser being determined then Deku going all out. They better explain why AFO can control Shimura though. That keeps popping up and it'd be annoying if it's explained by "because he's powerful and has lots of quirks"
Todoroki cooling Endeavor could have been drawn better. If you wanted to cool someone as long and as much as possible, wrap him in ice. A hand on his back looks like nearly zero effort.

:/
It's such a lame cliffhanger when 99% chance is that Bakugo survives this. It WOULD be awesome and emotional if that attack had killed him, but this series hasn't earned the benefit of the doubt here.
And Shigaraka just withstanding ALL those 100% power punches as well as Endeavor's sun-like uber-temperature attack is just bullshit.
This whole fight WOULD be great if the writing wasn't so in-your-face braindead.
"She's the only non-loli girl in the show, your honor!" will be my defense in court
One inconsistency I did not appreciate was that Deku's arm is still getting wrecked. Deku managed to land a 100% hit on the first black Nomu during that Themepark Rescue bit really early on, and I thought the whole reason was because that Nomu had Impact Absorption. If Shigaraki is basically a Nomu now then the same rules should apply.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
It may be that he doesn't know how to use that quirk yet, if he has it. He was searching (his mind, I presume) for a quirk to break free from the beatdown and seemed lost until AfO somehow got to take over.
Impact absorption sounds like a passive quirk that doesn't require you to activate it prior to every punch like a parry. Like Regeneration.
From a plot-POV it sounds like something introduced once so that OFA could have a proper fight, but then they had to delete it so that other melee fighters can have a chance once OFA retired.
