Would not say a great series. MHA had a nice start and started downward spiraling fairly quickly imo. Either he or his editors had no clue what direction they wanted to go with this series, or just became burnt out and started pandering to character popularity. Deku was always going to be a...

The worst thing about it is that Hori tries to pass it off as being justifiable/logical to some degree. Civilians randomly criticizing Endeavor (not to mention the randomness of them losing faith in heroes after the people that were in it for fame/heroes that lost their will to fight quit)...

You get that MHA as a whole is a really shallow series, right? Two of your main villains are manchildren with huge daddy issues, upset that their father didn't support their dreams of becoming a hero when in reality, that never should have been a deal-breaker in the first place. A character's...

I don't feel like it's ignored that much, tbh. The flaws of MHA have been increasingly obvious for a pretty long time, but I guess right now they're most apparent since the series is ending. IMO, outside of AFO, these guys really just aren't good endgame villains because their motives are...

Hori's made the effort to portray Midnight as someone that has a lot of faith in Momo, so imo. it'd make way more sense for Momo to avenge her. Mina generally has strong reactions to a lot stuff. She was in tears over the traitor situation as well. I don't really care too much about this in...

Hopefully this isn't all she does and when things go south, she does actually battle. She more than any of the other kids should be avenging Midnight, but it wouldn't surprise me to see Hori just gloss over that. He hasn't done a great job with her imo. Whole dynamic so far seems to be that...

Are you being intentionally dense? No, it's not. It's not like that at all, holy shit. A person's actions can be malicious without that person themselves being malicious as whole. I never separated his bullying and cruelty from his character. Not explicitly, nor implicitly. I never fucking...

Read what's actually written rather than what you think is written. I did not say "he wasn't purely malicious". I said as a person, Bakugo is not purely malicious. First impressions do not set in stone who a person is and I hope I don't actually have to argue this point.

Where did I say otherwise? My point is that he is not a character that is purely malicious; I never said Bakugo has never done or said anything that doesn't have malice behind it. None of these things are hot takes, nor are they controversial (at least imo). Bakugo as a character isn't fully...

They aren't actually. Reread what they wrote if you didn't understand or just admit you're arguing in bad faith. I don't really agree with their interpretation but it's not out of the realm of possibility. It's certainly possible that Bakugo's bullying was his way of telling Deku he's not cut...

Is that even the point of the fight? It's not supposed to be a way for us to gauge the strength of the class. They're fighting him because they don't see eye to eye and Deku isn't willing to hear them out. Well, yeah that's what villains do. Restrain the civilians with Black Whip and then...

None of the characters come off as likeable villains imo, except for Twice who was quite likeable. They have stories you can sympathize with initially, but their actions do a really good job at killing any sort of sympathy I have. Dabi, imo. is probably the most egregious because he's...

Well, I don’t think it’s necessarily that. Working other students into certain arcs doesn’t require that they face someone like Stain. Even something like giving a couple more of them motives could certainly be appreciated. Admittedly, this is a lot harder to do when you have a lot of characters.

Agreed, but I also feel like interactions between the students has been really limited in this series. It’s hard to remember any memorable dialogue between most of the students or even the students and Deku. They’ve for the most part been terribly underutilized.

Best chapter in a long while imo. Prior to this chapter, I was going to note that Nagant would have been way better as a standalone villain because she's actually presenting an issue with hero society that isn't just "someone did me wrong, so I'm taking it out on society" or "some heroes are too...
