Boku no Hero Academia

[DarthEnderX]

Can't disagree with that one.

The degree to which this show keeps trying to humanize these complete psychopaths is ridiculous.

Like, some of them have a legitimate grievance. But the idea that the response to that grievance is mass murder is...disproportionate, to say the least.

Spinner is the only remotely reasonable one. And even his "I agree with Stain that the crass commercialism of Heroes is wrong" doesn't warrant him helping these people.

I do want to hear what Ochako's response is to her. It seems like she has one.

Sadly, as MhA goes on, the story's insistence on trying to make villains sympathetic come off as unconvincing at best, and thinly veiled nihilism at worst.

Episode 146:

I DONT FUCKING CARE ABOUT THIS MURDEROUS ASSHOLE!!11 Stop these lengthy flashbacks, holy shit. We didn't get any good fight from this because it was so intersected with unnecessary flashbacks. Fucking kill Dabi and get it over with.

This anime's author really wants to have evil villains on one hand, but still do the whole shoune-"they have a good heart, let's save them!" bs. It's staggering and doesn't work at all. That's why Boku no Hero Academia is such a shit anime, but its fanboys won't acknowledge that. Ugh.

Episode 146:

I mean, WHY would they cripple shadow bird's capability by turning him into a transportation device for sound girl? :/ He himself could have put up much more of a fight. Couldn't the support heroes have given her a jetpak or something?

[Buffalobiian]

If she's never flown, she wouldn't know how to use a jetpack effectively.

Bird is also in bright daylight so his power ain't at maximum. They're also trying to avoid direct contact, so rather than having Ears focus on both flying and attack, just have Bird focus on flying (and matching Hawks) while have Ears focus on smashing the mask with sound.
