    Sad to lose Midnight like that... to some rubble from Mr. Compress...

    I do enjoy the scenes for the rescue ops frantically trying to piece together and salvage as many lives as possible. Not because of the destruction itself, but because Horikoshi's writing style handles these sections much more thoughtfully than his fight choreography, making these scenes hit just as hard emotionally as the screaming special attacks and set pieces do. I've always appreciated that worldbuilding and attention to detail.

    I was surprised at the Hero burnout scene. Most of the series highlights hero incompetence, society's distrust/reliance on them and heros' aim to be the top. Didn't expect them to cover the "This is too hard and a shit job" aspect.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    It's not a shit job though. It has in fact, been a super easy and cushy job for a long time now.
    Up till now, they've been fighting bank robbers and purse snatchers in a world that had a Superman in it. It's just now, all of a sudden, all of them are expected to actually DO their job, and they aren't up for it.
