Boku no Hero Academia

[Buffalobiian]

Camie being part of that group made it all the more enjoyable.

What's strange was that we never even saw the Quirk of the leading kid. He might as well have been a quirkless snob for all we know.

[neflight86]

Being edgy is its own quirk?

Aoyama might be my favorite character I expect to die.

[shinta|hikari]

I hope Bakugo dies.

Shoto <3

[DarthEnderX]

I wonder if Uraraka's body is also incompatible with her quirk, since it gives her nausea.

[Buffalobiian]

I think it's all relative, but Laser Boy seems to have it the worse. He's actively leaking out laser without his belt.

The other guys experience side effects from their quirks, which limits their use to some degree.

-Gravity Girl gets nausea.
-Kakashi gets dry eyes.
-Shoto's ice freezes himself without fire to balance it out.
-Bakugo's glands in his hands get strained from too much use.

There's the "The more I use my quirk, the more negative effects my body suffers" type of kid, then there's "I can't store up my laser without this belt, and after I shoot too much I get diarrhoea" dude where his quirk actively makes his life worse without equipment to keep it in check, let alone use it properly.

Kinda like the difference between, say, a Spider-Man, and a Cyclops.

Oh yeah, this is that Earphone Jack content I crave.

Already in love with Gentleman.

Hahaha.. "My character design won't let me touch the strings." xD

[neflight86]

At least our boy gets a harem part in the dance!

[DarthEnderX]

They shouldn't be enabling his behavior...

Episode 84

-----------------------------------------













That finger flick doesn't even do anything..

Just stick to punching or kicking people in the face. It works better.

The point is for it to be a ranged attack for when he can't reach someone to punch or kick them in the face.

But yeah, it's not huge because it's only 20%. The finger flicks he was using back in the tournament were 100%.

[David75]

It's not powerful for the moment, but it gives him a mid range weapon and evolve from close combat.

[Buffalobiian]

"realistically", 20% All Might should be plenty, and if Deku only ever gets to 50% All Might in all aspects, a 50% of All Might's top power would still flatten everybody out there.

Remember when All Might said he could have finished Nomu in 5 punches but still took 300?

That puts him at 1.6% of his former self. Deku is technically beyond that now, but I guess you can see why the author isn't making him any closer to All Might. Once you get close enough, you're good enough to win against anybody who isn't All for One.

A 20% air blast is not the same as a 20% punch.

That's not really how damage works, because people don't actually function on hit points.

One of Nemu's power was specifically impact absorption. Someone who hits only 1.6% as hard as All Might probably wouldn't do ANY damage to Nemu, so they could hit it an infinite number of times and STILL not defeat it.

Once you get close enough, you're good enough to win against anybody who isn't All for One.

Or, ya know, ANY villain who's power doesn't revolve around physical combat.

Like, realistically, if Tomura Shigaraki wasn't a known villain, what would actually prevent him from just walking up to All Might on the street, putting a hand on him, and killing him instantly?

My 20% comment wasn't at the flick specifically. Deku can activate 20% for short periods of time. Anything he does during that time should be amazing.

As for Impact Absorption, that's specifically why All Might's attack worked. All Might specifically said that he was able to overcome it because it wasn't nullification but absorption. Nomu just had a huge extra shield HP specifically for impact damage, and once that was drained it effected his own physical wellbeing.

[shinta|hikari]

Usual complaints. Too annoying to list the same shit again.

[KrayZ33]

That episode was better than most, even more so considering the relatively low stakes, the music was cool too.
I also enjoyed the fact that Deku has picked up on the whole thing relatively quick.

[DarthEnderX]

Yeah, I appreciate them not making Deku oblivious.

It's too bad the personal stakes for this are so high for Deku, because it's just a big prank to Gentleman.
