    The rational in real life is that you make sleeping more frequent in order to shorten overall duration.

    Here they shorten duration and make sleeps less frequent. The dude looks half dead anyway, so whatever.

    The real life situation is indeed interesting and I attempted it for a while, but my life doesn't run like clockwork so I can't be guaranteed sleep at a moment's notice.

    For the Vendée-Globe and similar individual boat races, they also fraction their sleep but with longer naps: 2 or 3 hours from memory.

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

    This is so bad.

    Introducing another evil organization just so the author can give the usual villains a hero-moment? Flashbacks to evoke sympathy? Fucking give me a break! These are murderous asshole villains who don't deserve any sympathy. EVERY villain in every fictional story ever has a tragic past of sorts, but it never excuses the villainous actions in the present. These past 2 episodes feel like the author is that close to making the villains join the heroes, at least he's preparing for that bs.

    Fuck Toga, I don't care what she went through or about any "determination" she's showcasing during battle. She's a psycho killer and all I want to see is her locked up or killed in battle. Same for all the other villains in Togarashi's group.

    Also, it needs to be said for once: They artstyle of this anime sucks. ALL characters look like children/have child faces, so whenever someone is supposed to be an adult, it's SUPER weird how they're just a child face on a taller body. That was very irritating this episode with th blue-skinned woman. But it's also an issue with al the heroe students, and all female characters. I'm not one of the pro-censorship idiots who can't discern fiction from reality, but I just hate how there's hardly any difference between children and adult faces in this series' character designs. Bad artstyle.

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

    I don't really see how Toga's past is supposed to be tragic or evoke sympathy. It pretty much just shows that she's always been a psycho.

    Shigaraki though, yeah, he definitely had some tragic shit happen to him that's been wiped from his memory.

    This is s portrait of the origin of a broken mind. Nothing more or less. She didn't get a hero moment, she got a bit of development with the a bonus power up. No one's calling her a hero, though she is a popular character. If the Joker happens to defeat/kill Two Face, no one is suggesting he is a hero even if he did something inadvertently heroic.

    Mfauli, for the character designs, that is almost pure personal taste you are complaining about. I think you want more angled character designs as you associate rounded features with childlike features. Horikoshi's art is a big draw for the series, actually. He has some pretty good character designs (though costume design I would also criticize) and a good sense of paneling to make the most of it, which the anime reproduces very well consistently.

    Shoto and ice manipulator guy would make a good team if they were on the same side.

    Looks like Shigaraki got an AOE upgrade.

    I was pretty happy to see Ochako's quirk being shown to be absolutely lethal.

    Though, the same could be said for having blood explode inside you.

    new episode:

    Yeah, I still don't give a shit about the villain's feelings and story. They're murders and they don't deserve any sympathy. Baffling choice to go forward with the plot. But it's probably testament to how shallow the heroes are.

    They are fighting to survive. Their stories don't have to be heroic- just interesting. Twice getting his trauma cleared up by having a bone broken is a neat free powerup and even the clones fighting Redestro boss were a cool scene, as was the tower crumbling. If you don't understand why long-standing villains are getting backstory during a time of duress, all of your previous comparisons to Naruto fall flat. This is shounen 101 story bite to accompany a fight; save animation budget, pad time, and flesh out the world. At this point, I don't even know what you are looking for here because your standards seem to shift constantly, so MhA probably isn't the show for you.

    Arc still feels rushed, and I can now confirm scenes were omitted, which is too bad because I think the MvA could have taken the rest of the season and been a hype way to send it off.

    It's the villain's training arc man. They're all powering up.

    I think it's weird Twice's clones seem to, have the powers of the people he's copying? So that's two of them now that can suddenly copy people's powers?

    I agree that it shouldn't happen because now everyone is everything.

    Twice did it first, when his Dabi Clone flame blasted Aizawa at the beginning of of season 3, during the villain attack. Toru's is apparently a power up, and that guy from class B also straight up copies powers with limitations. It is becoming a bit too saturated now as a power concept, I agree.

    episode 111:

    - why is he superhumanly fast?

    - how did he survive the big guy's attack?

    This fight feels like such an asspull, lol.

    Yeah, Shigaraki suuuuuucks.

    Toughness training? I didn't really understand the explanation for how that attack actually worked anyway...


    ----


    So...I was watching an older clip of MHA and...isn't the doctor that tells Deku he's quirkless the mad scientist that works for the League of Villains?!

    It's definitely him! He's got the same weird glasses! Wtf did he do to Deku?!

    So, why was Deku ever sad about being quirkless when you can just train yourself to be a super hero?

    I didn't remember his power could travel through matter and transfer to other objects and then people.
    Pretty gore episode by MHA standards.

    The new physical abilities are from fighting Gigantomachia for two months; plain old shounen 'all abilities+' buff from his mini training arc. You're a bit late to start complaining about that just now. There have been groans about characters having generic toughness and speed not applicable to their actual quirks since... Stain?

    Spinner really does look like someone who can't get stuff done. His TNMT cosplay is even inferior to Stain's.

    Shigaraki has, apparently, the absolute worst luck/timing for discovering his quirk out of all characters in MhA. Felt especially bad for the dog.

    I assume he was one of the people complaining.

    And as always, the counterargument is...this is a shonen series. Your magic powers are never your only powers.

    Crap argument, but if that's your iq level, ok.
