How My Hero Academia RUINED Its Final Arc 

Chapter 365 Update: Yeah it's bad. - Edgeshot pulls a bubble out to sterilize his body - Somehow plans on jump starting a dead body - Edgeshot uses his Quirk to sew up Bakugo, but the second he deactivates his Quirk or dies, the thread should come back to being Edgeshot's body... making Bakugo explode? - Shigaraki felt fear so now he's weaker I guess - Shigaraki felt fear over a kid he killed in one hit, btw - Mirko is kicking the ass of the strongest dude on the planet with 1 limb Nothing about this arc makes sense man this is insane lmaoooo

my favourite part was when dabi copied shotos ice-fire move with only fire and that somehow restored him to fighting strength despite his fire resistance being worse than shotos

Imagine in JJK Shibuya instead of Todo coming to aid Yuji against Mahito, Nanami just shows back up in perfect fighting condition with the only explanation being, reverse curse technique. That is how that moment felt.

Bakugou's death would've been so impactful if it actually stuck when Deku showed up. Bakugou is Deku's image of victory, so imagine how impactful it would've been for Deku to see the literal embodiment of victory lying dead because he allowed himself to get separated from Bakugou. It would've been the perfect way to encapsulate the running theme of even heroes like All Might not being able to save everyone, that heroes are just flawed people like everyone else, that no hero (not even All Might) can live up to Stain's impossible expectations. Imagine if Deku blitzed passed Shigaraki faster than he could react, causing Shigaraki to flinch as he expects Deku to attack him, only to notice Deku kneeling over Bakugou's body. Deku could finally understand Shigaraki's rage about not being saved by a hero, because even with all of the heroes around him, they still didn't save Bakugou. It would've been the perfect way for Deku to understand what Shigaraki meant back during their chat in the mall, about the naive belief that society is perfect and safe because the heroes will always be there to protect it. Horikoshi literally set up the perfect culmination to so many plot lines in one chapter, only to shoot himself and his series in the foot.

Its crazy that this video aged better after the new chapter when they completly removed the stakes of shigarakis prime all might level of power with an asspull of shigaraki being "scared"

I am a 100% positive that Horikoshi killed Midnight off just because if she was actully still alive and fighting right now than she could potentially put Shigaraki out of commision in a few seconds. And besides couldnt Edgeshot have just entered Shigarakis body and at least knock the guy out if not kill him or am i missing something

The whole "it's just a shonen" makes me frustrated because it just whittles down the ideas, execution of those ideas and nuances created simply for week to week hype with little continuity and it's what I've been feeling since villain hunt, the subversions that this series creates due to its setting was amazing and seeing it have bombastic moments that are supposed to be tense just aren't due to the lack of proper build up

Even Shinso’s situation made sense, we actually knew that he was trying his best to make it to the top, while edgeshot was like, “ I can become an organ”. Source: trust me bro 😎

What killed this series for me, even before the final arc, is the fact that half of class 1A has no character development. Heck, we don't even know why they want to be heroes. For me, at least, what makes a good story is what side characters bring to the story. I really like what horikoshi did with kirishima. Would've liked to see it with the rest of class 1A students

This final arc is being hard carried by how good Endeavour and Dabi are and the cope of Deku vs Shigaraki

I really hope Eri doesn't heal all the top heros who fought in the war. Eri being limited to how frequently she can use her quirk was a great writing choice from Horikoshi & I hope he keeps it that way otherwise it would just feel like their was no consequences to them fighting in the war. Obviously, people like Midoriya or Bakugo will get healed but to me, it would be better if a vast majority of them kept their scars as a testament to how hard they fought. It also shows how many sacrifices they made just to barely win in the end.

Not killing bakugo is a big wasted opportunity

It’s just so unfortunate because everything up to the war was so hype and some of my favorite times in the community, in particular the leak weeks during the first War. Now My Hero has become a series I dread learning more about week to week as I’m seeing Horikoshi tarnish his magnum opus simply because he wants to be done

Mina hearing some random dude who just happens to be Midnight's killer who just so happens to talk about killing Midnight months after is so funny to me

"The very foundations of the finale of My Hero Academia are not built to last." Yes. Exactly this. This is what I mean when I tell people that I just can't really enjoy this final act. Yeah there are some good moments but everything from the War Arc onwards to build up this "new" conflict is just... lame. And bad. And bad. And lame. Deku continues to become more and more generic. Character arcs that have been running since the beginning hold no wait in any of the actual resolutions. Plot conveniences and contrivances coming out of fucking no where. And worst of all... All For One hanging over any and every thing that's left. It sucks. So I can't really care when Shoto defeats Dabi in such a satisfying way (which is undone in the most recent chapter anyway), I can't enjoy the glorious evil displayed by Dabi, I can't enjoy any badass moments Shigaraki('s body) gets. The return of the Big 3. Or Endeavor's introspection. Because they all just feel incidental. Little sparkles in a black void of despair.

I think Horikoshi is tired and just wants to be done. honestly I think the story would be improved if he had been able to stop for a few months. maybe a year, and plan things more.

My hero had so much potential but it just crashed and burned. It’s a shame

Honestly my only problem with the arc so far is that they didn't commit to Bakugo being dead

I understand the pros for Bakugos "death" but what I find really flawed in its execution is it's placement in the battle itself. It's in the middle of both Shigaraki's and Dabi's fight so it not only feels anticlimactic in that sense, but also that it's a moment that accomplishes nothing. It wasn't a suicide move to win the fight or take out a vital part of Shigaraki's kit, it was just another regular attacked that completely failed. It feels shoved in for the sake of needing an emotional moment without proper planning, and just ended up as unnecessary bait.

I'll throw in my two cents on the current arc and the general issues that lead to it: In my personal belief, I truly think AFO shouldn't have been the final boss (including him essentially turning Shigaraki into his meat puppet). Now I understand sort of Horikoshi's end game is for Deku to "save" the little Tenko within Shigaraki/AFO. But I honestly think Shigaraki "moving on" from his mentor would have been a amazing parallel to All Might's relationship with Deku. It would have been amazing to see AFO who tried to control Shigaraki for his own selfish goals ends up dying to his own student because he couldn't let go of his "title" to be the ultimate villain. Had Horikoshi done this, a lot of the events happening would have been more impactful and understanding. Also, a majority of the Villains wouldn't have been immediately sidelined since the story could continue to focus the fundamental structure of "society failed on it's very citizens". As for Bakugou's "death". When I first read it, I thought to myself, "Holy Sh**....Horikoshi has some huge balls killing a fan favorite character." But then as I thought to myself, I realize this is a amazing way to show just how much the hero society failed on the people (until that a**pull of a "revival"). Bakugou's "death" as you mentioned, clearly shows the severe consequences that came with the hero society. With many "heroes" that initially became one for fame, money, and power, the large majority that retired showed that they were incredibly flawed. Now the "true heroes" have to resort to children fighting an adult's war. By having the students risking their lives for real this time, it highlights further major changes must be done. The death of a student would have also created the groundwork that "from here on out, none of the students will be safe" in the future chapters. Edgeshot also has absolutely no relatioship with Bakugou. And the fact that we don't really have much development on his character further makes this particular "revival" have no feeling. He doesn't actually NEED to have a relationship with Bakugou. If Horikoshi had given us some time prior to the war arc about Edgeshot's beliefs on the next generation of heroes should be better than the current ones, or that he views the current generation he is in should be the role model for the new ones, then this particular moment would make a lot of sense. Because by exploring more into Edgeshot's character and beliefs, we would understand why he choose to give his life for Bakugou's. If we had seen this, then it would connect the "sacrafice myself for the new generation" much more strongly. I completely understand the message Horikoshi is trying to show us. But the execution of it and the lack of any development on other characters just shows how much of a clusterf*** the final arc currently is.

Honestly, the funniest part is that we all thought edgeshot was dead for real

Honestly it started going down hill for me the moment Deku just randomly got Access to the rest of his quirks while beforehand we where seeing him progress slowly and understanding each quirk as it came along, we don't know the other users as well as we know the guy with black whip, and that's a massive thing to rush, especially when you plan on closing out the story.

When bakugo died I was hype. Not because I disliked bakugo but because I could just imagine deku's reaction and we get that raw fight we want between him and shigaraki. But instead deku isn't even there and edgeshot just thinks he can bring people back from death using his own body (crazy) that was the big thing for me

The worst thing about the MHA manga is the crazy MHA stans who act as if nothing we say is valid criticism/points about the state of the manga...that we too once enjoyed so much. If you say anything they tell you "You just have reading comprehension problems" or "This totally makes sense, you are just dumb" i guess thats what you get when you cater towards kids who want a safe space and refuse to look at anything objectively.

"A shōnen never kills its most popular character." Death Note: Hold my apples. To be fair, Death Note kind of went to shit after it killed off said popular character. But still, why waste time on bullshit fake-out deaths when you could, I don't know, develop your fucking story more.

this may be a coincidence, but man one of the editors for horikoshi that was swapped in right before villain hunt was notorious for being the kiss of death for a lot of jump series including one of kishimotos new works one of his interviews had him state that he admires spectacle and action over anything else when working with other mangakas i'm not saying hes the sole reason for mhas decline, but goddamn is it hard to ignore

Watching this as a hard core MHA fan who follwed the series since the school's sports festival this was refreshing. I really hope Hori turns this around because even I myself have been feeling bored by with it recently, and all due to what you said regarding poor execution. Take my sub good sir!

The reason why my hero has deteriorated is because the villains arc wasn’t well received in Japan. A lot of people in Japan don’t like the idea of empathizing with villains so he’s just become more detached from the story. I don’t blame him

It sucks to see a series I love so much make so many completely weird and nonsensical decisions. Horikoshi *has* made seemingly out of nowhere decisions that end up paying off (Twice and Hawks becoming friends before the betrayal) but these recent decisions happen way too fast for the payoff to feel earned. Stuff like Edgeshot reviving Bakugo feels completely out-of-nowhere and out of tone for the series. PLW had a few of these moments too, but most didn't feel nearly as egrigious as Act 3 has been.

Horikoshi: Don't worry. There's a madness to my method. "You mean method to your madness?" Horikoshi: I said what I said.

Horikoshi gave Bakugo not 1, not 2 but THREE fakeout deaths, two of which in the face fucking arc.

I knew Horikoshi didn't have the balls to kill off any major characters all the way back when All Might survived the fight with AFO. Funny and sad to see that that fact hasn't changed. That was around chapter 100 I think, when I dropped the series.

Good god… New season just started and they immediately reminded us about how much the MC cries… over virtually everything!

These videos are good, I like em. Keep it up. It's crazy to think that I was impressed endlessly when the series was still somewhat new and then always being excited for every chapter since the Culture Festival. Though after the War, I barely kept up with chapters. Now, I haven't read a single one since the traitor revalation. That's half a year of chapters and it now feels like I'm not missing anything. LOL.

And to add insult to injury, he gets more power when he comes back to life

Damn, you really put this into perspective, especially the Bakugo part. Didn't realize how much weight his death would have carried, I mean sure he's a liked character and all, but thematically that does make sense, the boy who couldn't proceed onward because of the mistakes of those who came before him. That's pretty cool, in concept.

I wish we got to know Edgeshot more before he essentially sacrifices himself.

so nice to finally come across a video that articulates properly the issue we MHA fans have with the current manga. I’m a huuuuge fan of the series and will defend it from other mid anime watchers, but this current arc has just been… lackluster? Horikoshi spent all of the war arc setting up so many things for the Endgame arc, the Dark Deku arc was pretty much PEAK MHA- so to go from all that traction, to whatever this has been, is a slap to the face to the characters he spent so much time building up throughout the series. I understand he’s tired and wants to just finish the series and I totally respect that, but it’s still disappointing at the end of the day for us fans. Twitter has been a cesspool of shippers calling anyone who disagrees with the Bakugo revival “antis” or “dudebros.” thank you for highlighting all the good points! 🙏🏽

Speed running to get nowhere is a perfect way to describe this act tbh

Hori watched Guardians Of The Galaxy way too many times, and was hellbent on putting a Groot sacrificing himself by expanding his body type scene in there

Istg when Edgeshot stepped up I was hoping he would just carry Bakugou’s body smwhere else so that he could get a proper burial after all of this… ofc that was being too wishful on my part

Todoroki's are carrying this arc for me. I love all the moments with Shoto and Dabi. Even Endeavor. But too bad random bs undid it all.

I want to remind everyone that Bakugo’s heart exploded. Meaning his heart has been leaking every ounce of blood out of it. Edgeshot is going to stitch up Bakugos heart. The heart that has suffered catastrophic bloodless. Assuming that this would even work, what happens to the edgeshot sutures once edgeshot dies??????

I dont really agree with Shinso's quirk upgrade being stupid since most of his development happens offscreen and under normal circumstances its been setup thats a major weakness of his quirk but quirks change and evolve so much across the story him being able to do slightly more complex brainwashing is believable even if a bit convenient for when it was needed in the story. I 100% agree with everything else you said, very well thought out and relayed points here. Its been an uphill battle arguing with the defenders on twitter over the very things you've cited that have burdened this entire final act but the Bakugo bit was the cherry on top and it just fucking sucks all around.

The whole thing started going down with that timeskip when Deku reveals his Quirk to his classmates in a letter. (That whole thing was also disastrous)

You should do a series on "How I would fix MHA" when the whole story ends. I would love to watch it. As a casual manga reader, i am unable to notice the inconsistencies and wasted potential. Youre videos are very interesting and I can see that youre really passionate about MHA! Keep up the good work!!

I get why they’re saving bakugo, I get the whole “saving the future” , it’s just the execution. Tbh I’m going ignore that and see how things play out. But I understand peoples frustration😭

I haven’t gotten to the final arc yet but I’m a little skeptical over wether or not it’s actually bad because I see a video like this every single a time a manga is in its final arc. Can’t wait to find out !

i 100% agree....the mha is just a SHONEN so u need to expect this bs prove that ppl need to read more shonens...an example is naruto even tho its popular af...kishimoto had the guts to kill jiraiya,arguibly the most loved and popular character in naruto after naruto himself and nonetheless it was one of the highest peaks in naruto...idk if u know d gray man...the manga has literally 0 deaths but aleast doesnt fake out like this and when u have a big moment there will always be a huge drawback(lenalee after fighting a lvl 3 akuma literally lost everything) but its still one of the best shonen out there....btw i think that one of the many problems of this last arcs is the fanbase itself...horikoshi stated that he wanted to finish mha in like 30 volumes max but he had to do the family friendly arcs with the classes bc japanese fanbase hated the villains and thats why he even changed the whole ending of the forest arc...also the aoyama reveal was intented to be in volume 11...and after all this 8 yrs of writing caused a burn out to horikoshi, in facts rn hes taking many pauses and chapters usually have 15 pages max but atleast we have some of the best arts out there....he shouldve taken a 3 months hiatus like tabata did so he couldve prepared everything for the final arc without rushing everything...he could even do it rn bc there will be the new season with the best arc in the manga and a new volume coming out so there will still be content for 3 months

Oh yeah, just watching the last part of the video about Bakugo and Edgeshot It's hilarious that Edgeshot didn't even die anyway

Remember when this series was about kids going to school to become heroes? How much school time did we exactly cover again? This is why I like Welcome to Demon School so much more, because ideas are so much better executed there... villains should not just be beaten by partially trained kids unless those kids are of much higher grades/ranks... in MHA, they are just 1st/2nd years for crying out loud...

I am pretty annoyed how poorly they planned the last bit of the arc and how awful powerscaling has been. Momo could knock out Gigantomachia with anesthetics, but no one tried any type of drug on Shigaraki?

Biggest positive of this arc is just that Nejire Hado is finally getting some more screen time finally (ik it’s a manga but still)

I hate Bakugou's death, because it broke me, but bringing him back is the worst thing they could've done.

Well after reading the last chapter of the war arc I can definitely say this arc was indeed a complete and utter failure

Todorki family be putting the entire series on their backs recently

He turns into a heart. Funniest shit I've ever seen.

one of biggest MHA's weakness is lack number of villain (even though most of them are well written). The lack number of villain costs a spotlight for other class member (even Tenya Ida) and make the story burnout quickly, this fault also happens in final part of Naruto Shippuden's war arc where thousand people just fighting 2 enemies. In MHA's case, they actually introduced many interesting new batch of villains in the shape of Paranormal Liberation Front (Re-Destro, Geten, etc). But, for some reason the author just throw them away by making them arrested, and stick to the original League of Villains member. This ruins a lot of story potential and many character screentime for me.

9:35 *F* in the chat, everyone.

I read the manga on the VIZ website and whenever I read a new chapter I look at people's comments and many have been complaining, examples: - The final battle started out of nowhere, all from the heroes plans, they tricked AFO as if he hasn't mentioned before that he makes his plans years in advance, yeah that meant nothing. - When Shoto used that ultimate move on Dabi, that was hype as hell but at the same time it felt too quick and easy, case and point Dabi made a complete 180 and still returned...so the hype was for nothing. - When Bakugo was killed, everyone was saying "Izuku is going to show up in the next chapter and turn complete berserk again like in the previous battle" NOPE, here comes Edgeshot(a cool side character btw) and started fixing Bakugo... Izuku shows up later, goes berserk for a few seconds and Mirio snaps him back into control... so Bakugo getting killed so far meant nothing. - Some chapters are spent within seconds, sometimes the story hardly moves forward at all in a single chapter, like in the latest chapter for example, it was just Izuku being shocked at all the damage and hurt heroes and going berserk for a few seconds. Yeah, what the fuck were those fingers shot out by Shigaraki, since that couldn't have been a quirk because both Aizawa and Monoma had their eyes on him using Aizawa's cancel quirk, they said it was Shigaraki's body finding it's perfect form... that was just unnatural and wasn't even a quirk... it was weird. And Yes like you've pointed out, where is Izuku's recoil damage from using 100%? When he battled Overhaul he had Eri's quirk reverting his body to normal so there was no recoil, ok, that makes sense, but last 3 arcs? Nothing. And that was one of the biggest themes in the whole manga, sure Izuku is getting stronger and more used to OFA but still... Also I have a question, how are none of the heroes quirks accidentally turned off by Aizawa when they are fighting so close to Shigaraki and Aizawa is watching from so far away???

Unpopular opinion: Mha writing has always been sub-paar and now that it's even worse than mid finally the fans are catching on

Love your content keep going💪

To me, a lot of unfortunately stems from Horokoshi not really having much to say, but rather he has had a lot of cool ideas for a long time

I am disliking mha it feels like none of the characters are getting fleshed out

2:09 Worst part is, the Toga thing goes pretty much nowhere anyways, as Deku essentially boils down to saying that she’s delusional, which causes her to lose it, and then Ochaco and Toga fight while Deku takes flight for too many chapters.

Bakugo section had me in tears man lmaoooo

MHA worked so hard to distinguish itself from the shadows of Naruto and Bleach just to copy them almost to a tee by the end. Obito Part 2 with Shigaraki let’s gooooo.

You know, the worst part is not even that he comes back. It is a Shonen manga, people coming back for flimsy reasons goes back to Dragon Ball, this is neather unheard of or that unexpected (It is still very lame for these very reasons). However, the real bad part is that Deku. Does. Not. Even. Sees. It. Imagine the massive emotional moment of Deku rushing to fight and "save" Shigeraki, only to see all hero's bloodied and beaten and Bakugo, a character who he had such a deep and nuanced relationship with, dead on the Floor. With Shigi even taunting him about it, reveling in his loss. But no, we don't get that. Of course we don't, otherwise Deku's "I will save this child" thing might have consquences and Layers. Not to mention, he does not care about Shigi (just like the Plot no longer does after the Stupid AFO merge), he cares about the baby Personallity that is disconnected from all the bad stuff Shigi did. Convieniently removing moral complexity even more. It is not like their is much left anyway, I am just waiting for AFO to be behind Quirk-discrimination and the flaws of the Hero System, somehow.

I have the feeling Horikoshi really just wants to end this manga and just goes ape shit with the plot and lost the ability to care at this point

Also so many characters have been sidelined to infinity Ochako has done nothing, Lida has done nothing, we haven't seen kirishima or mina do anything. Every chapter is AFO trying to get back to shigaraki but oh no hero come stop him or deku punch shigaraki and shigaraki punch deku. It's gotten so boring and dull.

I will NEVER understand abilities that only activate on the death of the user. How do you even find out that you have an ability like that? How do you strengthen it? Outside of those rare instances, like being told explicitly that you have that ability (which in itself can be really contrived and stupid), this is something that always gets me heated. The moment Edgeshot did his nonsense, I honestly dropped the series. It's such a damn shame. :/

If my hero academia keeps doing fake deaths they will cash up to dragon ball levels of characters deaths meaning nothing I still don't know how to feel about bakou fake death.

I’m very mixed on the final arc. Like you put it, there’s a lot of emphasis on individual cool moments rather than a consistent progression in the story. However, while this arc has a lot of issues, I actually like the 336 reveal quite a bit, since it felt properly built up, and it’s the kind of twist that can lead to you rewatching earlier scenes thinking “oh…. Oh god.” Same goes to endeavor’s overall character progression, which has also been really satisfying to see. I just wish there was more buildup for the rest of the events in this arc. Overall, I feel really bad for Horikoshi. He’s a good writer, and he definitely could have set this up better, but it’s clear he just wants to be done with it at this point, which I can absolutely understand. Burnout is a very real problem, especially for manga writers. Honestly, it’s kind of frustrating to see people paint him as a terrible writer because of this.

Banger as always

Mha rn is just a bunch of buffs and overcomes with no meaning at all

MHA's War arc is basically the Buu Saga from DBZ. All spectacle but little substance and meaning. A flashy ending rather than a purposeful one.

It's been in decline for a while but here's some things wrong with the series. - power creep (and this is a massive problem) made shigi way to powerful too early on before anyone else. Ruined the end of the war and his first real fight with deku. - all for one's character. Until the prison break he was fantastic an S Tier villain.....then he busts out of prison in a chapter and his grand plan is to blow it up.....since then throw him in the trash. -stars and stripes....... sigh - shigi is AFO!!??? (trash) -character deaths?? Hot take but all might should've died in his clash with AFO dekus mom, grand torino(who should also be dead), or eraser head could've done all of his scenes since. Plus with the vestiges his mentor role is worthless anyway. And obviously bakugo.... I could go on but it's bad. Really bad

I love your content from what I've seen so far, but while all you're saying is correct, I still want to give Horikoshi the benefit of the doubt because considering the conditions weekly manga are made in, I'm surprised that any of them are good. But you're right. I haven't even read MHA in over a year, when Deku became a vigilante in the US. I put all my WSJ reading on hiatus as it was so troublesome to keep up with like 14 series while depressed and burned out, but even then my love for the series had been fizzling out. I do plan on going back to finish it, hopefully before it ends.

Shonen kills off its most popular character? That would never- *you are my special starts playing*

I dont like what he did to all might recently. Literally gave him another big fight chance. For no reason at all in a damn titan suite. Like bruh. He ruined the heart felt big moment when he fought all for one and pointed to deku saying its your turn now. Like him making all might fight again ruined that moments stain. I loved how the story was going but it got ruined nothing connects and its all over the place. Even this final fight is wack

I forgot Midnight died..

When he said “now take a 3 month hiatus” lmaooooo that so funny I feel that

My friends bugged me to watch MHA and I never got the hype for it. I dropped it cos it really never feels like there are any stakes I'm not saying horikoshi needs to kill damn near everyone like in jujutsu kaisen but why should I care about this series if it feels like nobody's lives are ever on the line especially in a freaking war. This series has one of the biggest casts ever that keeps growing and nobody ever really dies or suffers an injury that puts them out of action in a world where supervillains are as common as pigeons. The huge cast is another reason I dropped it I can't even remember every name they're just that guy who does such a thing. There's like what only 5 characters or less in the whole class that even matter and the adults make up the majority of important characters which is still less than 10. I also loathed bakugo so hearing he actually got development and dies gave me some hope but knowing he just gets brought back again via random BS killed any interest in revisiting it in future.

I'm getting into the series really hard again and I'm assuming I might wanna turn my brain off for this arc? I just finished Dark Deku and season 6 and I'm about to continue the story in the manga

What would be so hilarious is if Shigaraki manages to speed blitz to Bakugo before edgeshot can even throw away his life.

and people really wonder why readers are slowly but surely showering Black Clover Praise, while MHA are getting boos.

I would like to believe that Dabi's ability to recreate Shoto's quirk comes aspect of his quirk that is unknown to both us as the reader AND dabi. After all, it's rlly odd that the man is still up and kicking despite how damaged his body looks. Maybe he has a bigger ice side than just ice resistance or smth like that. Maybe it'll come into play later in the story. Maybe I am asking for too much.

So like, it's weird that you have only 2k subs right?

"If a nuclear weapon was dropped on any of these battlefields, i would not be particularly worried about the outcome of any of these characters" is REALLY funny to come back to now that dabi has exploded (in a supposed 5km range i think?) and i am, in fact, not worried about any of these characters' outcome. they'll be fine.

I knew from the moment Edgeshot was on panel that people were either completely on board with it or hate the idea entirely

Such a pity that such a promising series turned so bad. The current are has to be one of the worst final arcs I have ever seen. I’m nit even gonna watch the anime anymore. Once the paranormal liberation arc ended I stopped there. I keep up with the manga just to see how much worse it gets. And it’s getting worse and worse all the time. So sad to see how such a successful series failed so horribly in the end

Im just happy to see superheroes with cool character designs go brrrrrr :) Its just really fun to follow each week. Although Bakugou coming back to life is really my biggest peeve

You got to do a rewrite on every arc from my hero academia.

In my head, I believe that Gran Torino dies after handing his cape over to Deku, like how Yoda dies after some final words of wisdom. If you wanna get dark, I imagined that after saying how death is a form of salvation, Gran Torino turns his head to look at the plug for his life support machine. Deku notices this and they sit in silence for a while. Afterward, Deku unplugs the machine as a mercy kill, which is what may happen with some other villains he needs to fight along the way. Gran Torino is showing the audience by example of how it can be necessary. That would be an insane way to kick off his solo arc.

I honestly can't say that I enjoy it like I once did, still I will see it through to the end.

O thank God Im not the only one that hates this arc. Nohing matters ever at all. Every time there is a fight i just wait for it to end like...

MHA truly ended up a Green Naruto in every step of the way

I think maybe all these ideas will come together in an epic ending? I really don't know

I've never seen a manga go downhill so quickly in terms of overall quality.

My Hero Academia Synopsys: A random hodgepodge of random bullshit and unconvincing steaks. :)
