The Failures of Deku's "Vigilante Arc" 

exactly, it was just too short than I thought it was gonna be

Yea

It had unnecessary hype.

Yeah honestly it is one of the best arcs, not sure what tf this guy is talking about.

I feel like most of the complaints for this arc are just very nitpicky or they just blatantly ignore the context of the story at the moment for all of the issues they have not being addressed. When I see people bring up the lack of consequences for Endeavor or Hawks I just question the readership. Who the fuck is going to hold them accountable for their crimes in societies' current state? You could argue Hawks' lack of apprehension towards Endeavor is a little weird but Hawks is inherently biased towards him but he is also capable of seeing the man he is now isnt the same as back then. I dont have an issue with the power progression at all it makes sense given the context of the story and still comes with adequate risk even fueling deku's self destructive tendencies even more in this arc which was the best part, even if the finish wasnt as good as it could've been. I've had to argue with way too many people that cant suspend their disbelief over the top two heroes not being indicted amidst societal collapse or how they clearly get plenty of pushback especially Endeavor for their sins, ala Dabi and failing to keep the public safe. We're literally shown society turning its back on its protectors so hard even the heroes we thought were legit like Death Arms hung up the suit.

Bakugo had got killed again

​@@Boruto-cooks I hope he stars dead this time at least

​​@M Y T H I C A L N O V A the proof is in the manga He isn't really confirmed dead but not alive eighter

@M Y T H I C A L N O V A no joke he not lieing he dies again like die die

I keep calling it the Vigilante Deku arc, but only because Dark hero arc sounds more like the hero turned into a villain, but that's just me.

Vigilante sounds cooler deal with it 😁

@@vg-_-universal8283 also not canon. Real name is Dark Deku.

@@shirokane0153 🤓 “also not canon heh”

@@vg-_-universal8283 Horikoshi came up with that name...so...you can blame him for it. Vigilante Deku like Cremation is a fan name. If you've read the spinoff manga, calling Deku a vigilante makes zero sense as he has a provisional lisence.

it highlights it but actually doesn't do anything with it. The characters or even Deku himself never adress it

​@@thefull9746 what do you mean, dekus tendency to hold the burden by himself was said by tsuyu and shoto, telling him they were strong enough for deku to help him shoulder said burden.

@@nikamoreillus661 that's not the type of thing that is supposed to be fixed just by another character saying "We can help you with it". The issue deserves more (it's litterally Deku's biggest flaw, the crux of his character)

@@thefull9746 ochaco's speech helps deku to understand that he can't hold this by himself and to not put his class in such a low regard acknowledging that it's not just him that's going to become the greatest hero but everyone in class 1a. Then allmight was supposed to die because he kept on pushing himself the limit eventually burning out ofa in the process and almost died and it's the same with deku, he pushed himself too much and got some z's midbattle fr.

⁠​⁠​⁠@@nikamoreillus661you’re missing the entire point. Deku needs to solve Deku problems. In Naruto, Naruto needs to solve Naruto problems. In bleach, Inchgo needs to solve inchgo problems and in One Piece, Luffy needs solve luffy problems. Getting help is fine but Ochaco can’t solve Deku personal problems for him, Deku needed to say something for himself or recognize his own problems and he never really did. Also the problem doesn’t end in one conversation. Deku is a good hero because he pushes himself and actually cares about people, so the story applying that part of him is just a bad thing sorta goes against Deku entire character.

That's One of my biggest issue with shounen

That's a pretty frequent occurrence for most media aimed at middle schoolers.

Yeah Horikoshi shouldve pulled a Tatsuki Fujimoto

This is why Aot is my favorite anime

@@ihave40wins63 I'm honestly too scared to watch aot in case I get attached to a character that dies :(

Glad you likes it now, because it'll be like this never happened, he goes to the way he was before when Horikoshi actually puts him in the story instead of 101 new and side characters, and he never has and growth, thoughts or internal consequences to his month long, self destructive rampage

It's barely darker than Overhaul, what are you talking about?

People call it dark but he just beat up people while looking dirty with a mask. Nothing “dark” happened. Even vigilante Deku isn’t right because he has a license and is right now publicly known as the strongest hero. Better name is lonely Deku arc.

The issue is that after Nagat fight we don't see him beating other bad guys AFO send after him before Tyrant comes in. It felt jarring how we got from Nagat dropping important plot point, only for Deku being rushed to get back with the class and then Stripes comes in to be the most bizarre in manga filler.

@@egbertmilton4003 1: that's the name of the arc and 2: Deku's in a darker place and looks dark what are you talking about?

its a great concept but horrible execution

Deku is still too good for me i want him a little more realistic.

because this series is trash

@@raydygonzalez5714 its a shonen..

@@ClavinZKL And your point? Just because it's a Shounen manga, it doesn't mean that the hero/protagonist cannot be "realistic" or break away even a little from the standard mold.

I think that you meant that it was too short in which case I agree with you. Seeing him more in the background would've definitely been nice. Like they tease him being in background with the rumors circulating and all but that sort of loses it effectiveness when the audience is still following him as a protagonist.

@@TheAluvisify Twas a typo and has been fixed. Thanks!

I literally said to my gf that this is the first time he’s really been the main character!

Honestly he still isn’t even the main focus he never gets to talk about all he’s been through he was discriminated against for something he had no control over for year’s physically and mentally and no one ever talks about it not even him

How is it a deconstruction when it doesn't say anything. As someone who has read a lot of comics the only thing that screamed anti hero was his costume getting jacked, nothing truly happened. I don't get how you can call it a deconstruction.

"Deconstruction" has become a buzz word. Every single show that is pretty good is called Deconstruction these days

@Jamal Hartley "Deconstruction" may not be the best word, but it seemed the best fit for an arc that simultaneously pays homage to and critiques an era of comics generally defined by loner anti-heros, x-treme aethetics (animalistic poses, torn clothes, accessories, claws, etc.), distrust of authority, and general nihilism. The story has been building up the cracks in hero society for it's entire run, and it finally comes to a head with the formation of the PLF, the failure to stop Shiguraki, and Dabi's public address. Midorya is then seemingly set up to fall into the life of a solo vigilante after his encounter with Lady Nagant, where he'd eventually be forced to gradually lose his humanity and resort to more violent means. The intervention of class 1-A not only pulls Deku out of his downward spiral, but also refutes the very notion of nihilism and solo anti-heros. And they do this not through some saccharine speech about hope and friendship, but by drawing on their shared experiences, acknowledging the failures of the hero society, forcing Deku to see his actions are driven by fear, and demonstrating how much more affective they are working together. It may seem a bit rushed, but I felt it was efficient and effective.

@@PainCausingSamurai I get that since this the first arc where Deku actually acts like a super hero 😅 so I get why some like it. Although violent? Nah. The only thing edgy about Izuku was his costume. He saved a guy who tortured a little girl aka Overhaul during the Nagant fight. So I didn't see that downward spiral you talking about. Would've been cool if we got that though! Plus that edge in the 90s was so short lived because it can't last. No one wants to read that every issue so it's focused onto characters who can carry that like Daredevil, Batman, Punisher, and the like.

I would say it's more of a subversion of 90s edgy antiheroes. Midoriya has been adamant and diligent in fighting villains and saving lives. So diligent in fact, he has begun to neglect self care and has isolated himself from his friends, family, and eventually All Might. He seems to act more like Batman, always vigilant, always out prowling the streets. He looks like a monster, but his actions are quite heroic, leading to mixed rumors in the masses.

This is a good thought, but I don’t think a character needs to die to explain the change. Bakugo sacrificing himself to protect Deku was enough to explain the transition. Deku actually sees and knows that everyone would sacrifice for you, because you are the savior. This is a heavy burden to bear. To me, that was more than enough to explain the transition.

Well, there is a reason why Deku had an entire change of character. This was supposed to give a darker and scarier version of Deku. For about 10 years now since MHA released, a lot of the anime community are always complaining about Deku's crying. They always complain that he is a crybaby and that he cries too much. What I also find ironic is that when Deku eventually went out and changed into an entirely different person, people were now switching up and hyping up Deku acting like he is the best new gen MC of current anime. Also, yeah I do agree with the killing of person. But the problem is which character do we kill off because it has to be a person that Deku extremely cares about.

I mean is it really fair to both complain about this being too short, AND not warranted enough? Which would be better? Deku's Mom dying and the arc still being short? That wouldn't make sense. Or maybe the arc being ten chapters longer? What would we even get out of that?

​@@leritykay8911 At least it would explain the drastic change... These are two pretty unrelated issues so I don't see why one has to exist without the other.

@@rato_o6841 Well I'm just saying, duration of a change also affects how drastic it is. Like if someone is very hungry and becomes agitated until he eats, that's not a drastic change. But if someone becomes agitated and angry for a few weeks straight, it IS. So the way I see it, it follows that if Deku didn't have a huge reason, then the change wasn't THAT drastic. He was putting on that mask for what, a week?

His character has no rizz though.

​@@egbertmilton4003 He literally does

​@@offensiveGame-Ing he has fake rizz. writer wanted deku to get bitches so he just wrote it in. deku still has no rizz.

@@mulanomula If Deku is getting bïtches then that means he has rizz bruh

​@@egbertmilton4003 Deku pulled Uraraka without trying, how does he not have rizz?

I dont fully understand saying "I'm disappointed in the overall arc while being happy with what I got."

​@@dflaming1371disappointed because its short, but good while it was there

Literally what twists? He got broody for like 10 chapters and then he wasn’t anymore.

It didn't deliver what could have happened. Just an average arc at best.

The way I see it in the case of Deku's self-destructive personality stemming from his years of systematic verbal and physical abuse at Bakugo's hands is best illustrated is when he's on that rooftop being told by All Might that he can never be a hero, literally vindicating EVERYTHING that Bakugo had been telling him for the majority of his young life, and further vindicating Bakugo's words that if Deku wants to be a hero then he should just kill himself and hope in his next life he'll have a Quirk. Just imagine that every horrible, uncaring word that you've been told your entire life was just echoed by the hero you've loved and respected your entire life... what would you want to do next on that rooftop? Now imagine that after that, you FINALLY got the Quirk, the POWER you've been longing for your entire life to give all the hardships you've been through over the years meaning and purpose... well, you'd want to keep that feeling wouldn't you? You would never allow yourself to not live up to the expectations of those who gave you such power, to prove people like Bakugo wrong in saying you are worthless, who gave you the power to continue the fight against villainy and evil... even if that meant rending your flesh, breaking your bones, tearing your very body to bloody shreds... because if you did, then you would be back on that roof wouldn't you? Reminded that you are a worthless human being... That you should never have been given this power to begin with... That everything you endured to reach this point was meaningless... That ultimately the best thing you should've done at that moment was take the leap and hope that next time will be better than this one... That IS what Midoria's mindset has been throughout the entire series and the person who started all of this was Bakugo. Just because Deku got over his bullying and abuse doesn't mean he's over the trauma of it, of being forced back onto that rooftop facing down his inadequacies every single time he fails to meet everybody's expectations because he wasn't good enough to win and wonder if what's on the other side is the better deal. And so in order for Midoria to finally get over his self destructive attitude, he NEEDS to face its ultimate cause... and the apology wasn't that. What should've happened is that after Bakugo said he was sorry for what he did to Deku, Deku should've then dumped everything he felt back at Bakugo. The years of abuse, the agony of trying to befriend and stand by a boy that would never allow it, the soul grinding of being told day after day that he was, is, and will never be a human being in the eyes of the people around him. It is only when both Midoria and Bakugo are made to face the consequences of their actions can Bakugo truly say sorry for what he has done to Midoria and Deku can truly forgive him for it and begin to lay the pains and inadequacies of his past to rest... so that both can finally begin to walk the same path together than Deku had always wanted his entire life... Now take this little opinion of mine and compare it to the apology we got in the manga and anime... do you still think that that moment was earned and helped to repair their relationship?

Good take. you're making a lot sense than most of these people in this comment section.

@@white0thunderwhite0thunder71 I still kinda think that version we got was earned, but I do like your take. At the same time though, I just don't think that deku is the type of character to dump everything that he's ever felt on to someone. This is a most likely wrong take from me since I just don't remember him doing something like that. That's all I have to say now, so have a nice day.

@@white0thunderwhite0thunder71 I agree with your comment but I think in my opinion that deku shouldn't have forgiven Bakugo yet because it was 10 years to late for that

@@QTRemnant Guess I can't argue too much there, I just think that just because a person doesn't like to unload on other people doesn't mean that keeping things bottled up is healthy, even for a fictional character going through the mother of all rough patches. Anyway, nice day to you too.

Well, the thing is I absolutely agree with you. Don't get me wrong, I personally love Vigilante Deku and he looks awesome. But the only problem I see with this arc is Deku VS Class 1a because it arrived way to early in the story. I wish Horikoshi actually gave more time to develop this arc so Deku can finally be developed into his own character. Seriously though, we got some cool action fight scenes and it felt good seeing Deku become an entirely different person than he was a couple of seasons ago. But the problem with this arc in general is the wasted potential of Deku as a character. At this point, Horikoshi just wants to be done with MHA and nothing more.

As a manga reader it wasn't any better there either. I have no idea why some people were hyping it up.

Yeah I was expecting so much from vigilante deku but when I got to it it just felt like a kid ran away from home to the nearest playground then got picked up by his parents 4 hours later then went to bed

Hopefully one day I make a video going over my issues with the arc

I enjoyed it at first but when you actually watch it properly there are many holes

Personally I loved the start of the arc, but it just ended in a way that was so unsatisfying. I still like the arc, but man I really wanted some deep introspection from Deku and we just didn't get it :(

@@chromulus2225 I understand how u feel tbh and I hate how there is a lack of acknowledgement from the rest of the cast as students see their teachers DIE IN FRONT OF THEM

Idk what the anime did differently seeing as nothing was changed or added into a lot.

@@Dr._Atom what disappointment? These arcs were amazing.

​@@jeffali5157 Yet people loved it

I like it to because for me now that I think about it deku never really faced any real psychological conflict true becoming the new all might was something he had to go through but I don’t really count that and I feel the Dark Hero Arc was Deku’s true Physiological conflict because he’s at the lowest of the low he abandons everyone even all might and in a way abandons the identity of Izuku Midoriya becoming a shell of the person he once was and even though it is for a good reason to see them all happy. So in also another way the Dark Hero Arc was Deku’s Daredevil season 3

@@mickwoodfield9980 👍🏼

he's not saying he doesn't like MHA, he quite literally giving a constructive take ( could we call this scrutiny???) on a arc. Simply put it, if you like it base on how you feel that's fine but going through from a narrative perspective will always take precedence. As much as i myself enjoy this arc, one thing ill not regard as good is the abrupt and erratic switches in time and lack of detail given to him improving his innate abilties and character. No inner conflict, growth in ideology or nuance to how he is developing ( side characters aside) as he is, just a radicalised altruistic hero who wants to remove everything to save everything.

​​@Roberto The Super Mutant What? I'm just giving my opinion. That's all

​@@famousfox6318 Yeah I know bruh

your* also i see you dissing one piece on your channel L

I couldn't agree more on the Midnight take. Midnight was one of my top 5 favorite hero and, yes, a little bit because of how they sexualize her but it's because although she is sexualized a lot, she actually does her job of being a hero. She's a hero that likes showing off her body but when she needs to be a hero she acts like a hero. Midnight will definitely be remembered for me but I full on agree that she would be more remembered if they gave her a moment where everyone mourn over Midnight and even a few other hero's that lost their life.

@@AgentNero9 I'm glad to know :) with that, you bring a smile to me as well

Ehhh, I keep seeing the comments just defend Deku and one or two comments say: "Finally, I agree", but I just think, personally, that the War Arc and the Vigilante arc is just bad/rushed writing. I'm not saying this to be mean or to discredit people's taste in anime shows. People can like what they like and I say this as someone who will finish MHA when the next season comes out. However, when I look back on both the war arc and the vigilante arc, I just see both arcs with bad writing. Sure, there are good points to the arcs, but, as an average anime goer that has invested time into MHA, I can point out the flaws that really bug me greatly in both arcs and I honestly believe that is just bad/rushed writing. I don't blame Horikoshi entirely, he could be on a rushed schedule, but I am allowed to look at something I enjoy watching and say: "This could have been done much better."

I agree, I love this arc so much I wish it was longer :(

It's not completely MHA's fault. MHA has over 400 chapters and the story has been dragged out for way too long. Honestly, MHA used to be peak but the series began to fall off when the war arc premiered. It honestly fell off when Stars And Stripes VS Shigaraki occured.

What do you recommend?

im sorry but i don't think that you could possible agree with and acknoledge all of his points and still think this arc is the best, without thinking the rest of the series is total dogshit

@@themcdonut9602 actually you can

@@themcdonut9602 agree might have been the wrong word more like understand? I agree with most though. this arc simply kept me interested the most and I finished it not satisfied but content. i enjoyed it. even if.it has all these flaws I still enjoyed this season alot maybe it was because these aren't a big deal to me or maybe I just didn't notice them but I enjoyed this season more then all the others. plus as a anime only(now manga I started reading it) I have been excited for villginte deku for years. season 2 was the best and my favorite before this. however after finishing this season I came out happy with what i watched. sure the season may not be perfect but I enjoyed it so for me it's the best. you can agree with others and still have ur own opinion

And you've hit my point in the head. Mha is officially riding on big, flashy, emotional MOMENTS because we love the story and characters build pre s4. Everything in between is empty, flat, and noncohesive

@@dflaming1371 can't tell of ur agreeing or not but I agree with this stayement

I didn’t. MHA felt like fast food served at a sit in restaurant and prefer to enjoy a savory homemade meal.

@@geigercourtier And you’re fair to have that opinion, I thought it was fun, it had flaws don’t get me wrong but I wasn’t really invested anyways so the problems didn’t matter to me since I just kinda watched it to watch something.

Congrats, you’ve taken your first step into western comics where a guy just “needs to run faster” and heroes get out into healing comas all the time

Lmfao, he didn't have a flashback of Eri because of her "healing" he remembered Eri because if he died in the war, he would make Eri fall into depression like his friend did after he saved him and sacrificed himself. Lmfao, there's no way some people think Aizawa had that flashback because of Eri's healing ability from her quirk 😂🙏

It's not really that they hate it. I also like the arc not gonna lie it's pretty good. What he's ranting about is how this arc kinda fails to build off the loss and action that happened in the previous arc. It's just mainly been about cool sequences and moments but doesn't focus on all the consequences. I do love Midoroya's growth and stuff but it feels like they forgetting alot of things that happened in previous arcs which we were expecting to be resolved in Villian hunt.

Sammmmee idk y but ppl alway like to focus on the negative side always they won’t look on the positive side just did u enjoyed it?? If u did enjoy it then I find that it’s successful regardless of the negative things in it, and I can see that you all really enjoy it, but all you do is just focusing on the negative points, just compare the positive points with the negative ones, and you will see that the positive points are much more than the negative ones. There is no perfect series from all sides always People just like to come and spoil the series with their useless comments. What does not make any work successful is because of people's different tastes, so please be grateful for the work without criticizing it because I am sure that every writer has his own style of writing and every writer cares about people's opinions And every writer wants his story to succeed, so please focus on the positive points more than the negative ones and be more grateful for the work.

You aren’t alone in this. It’s so strange to me how my top two favorite series (MHA and Bleach) also just happen to be two of the most hated and slandered series of all time. I know they aren’t perfect, but NO series is perfect.

@@scottvgamer1163 like some ppl just piss me off with their offensive comments about the work. There are some people who do not like anything and there is nothing that fills their eyes, no matter how good the work is.

RU-vidr: Watches 6 seasons of anime, proceeds to talk about it in depth and shows that he truly cares about the material. Cares enough he wishes it was better. Comments: Wow, so negative, why don't you just talk about the positive stuff

For me, the most heartbreaking part of this arc was that fact that Class 1a came right after Deku. Like the arc was so short, we only got to see a little bit of Dark Deku. Like seriously, the arc should have been longer, and this should have been used to develop Deku as a character. The last time Deku had development was like when? I think it was somewhere 3 seasons ago.

First half was raw but the second half was way too rushed and ended underwhelmingly when there were plans for a lot more and bringing Deku back to his old self and all ok really wasn’t ideal especially after everything he went through and what happens later on really makes it all the more baffling on how this got rushed thanks to the bad editor among other things

He is gonna show up in the final war arc helping the villains, he only gets a few panels though

Alright, then elaborate. What makes this trashy arc so good? That whole point of "his classmates are growing now" is stupid, since all they do in the damn arc is reassure that deku is good, that he doesn't have to be all alone. The damn arc does a bad job with class 1A, since we never actually get an original thought from them, all we get from them is their damn support for deku. We never get any interesting pov moments from the class a characters. They've all got their own shit going on, so focus on that. But nope, it's all izuku this, izuku that, it's annoying. And for the "true atmosphere of mha" wdym by that? Is it supposed to be some take on the society as a whole? The hero commission being all corrupt is stupid, cuz if they wanted to do all that, then actually put some time into it, instead of just making a mention about it. Build it up. Shit just ended up being completely forgotten. The biggest problem with the classmates is that they're just one big hivemind sharing a single damn braincell. They aren't seen as individuals in this thing, just extensions of the damn plot. Real bad arc, worst arc of the series so far.

And also mha is much more enjoyable as a casual fan who is not paying too much attention or try to analyze things on a deeper level which is why a lot of anime fans liked it. People who are more invested and connected to the story tend to see the weaknesses more especially if everything they liked about the series before is getting butchered. As a manga reader having seen the current state of it I will forever beg for Horikoshi to never try to involve any social commentary because (SPOILER) the mutant stuff has been the absolutely worst writing in any shounen I have ever read and the last maybe 20 chapters have been so incredibly boring that the fandom is not even talking about their theories or character analysis anymore - they just talking which useless character will get a 2 chapter cameo and then never to be heard from again. Most boring arc and it's a shame never would have thought this is what we would end up with

It’s gonna be a major fuck up.

Well… who knows we might still see a little more. U never know.

Well the thing is, shonen jump isn’t rushing the series to end, looking at the popularity chart, MHA still doing real good and always gets into the top 5. The one rushing it to end is actually Horikoshi himself as he’s kind of grown tired of making manga and wants to retire (which is understandable cuz being a mangaka sucks) and so is pretty much speedrunning to the end
