To each their own, but I really liked the name. Tsuyu seems like she wants to be a more disaster oriented hero than a villain fighting one so I guess a name that sounds more fun and like something that kids would be fans of was probably what she was aiming for.

Alien Queen was so cool. Midnight pls!!!!

I take back what i said about the Hero Killer. The guy actually killed a lot of people and injured a lot more to a point they can no longer be heroes just like what happened to Ingenium. I'm fine with that even tho having Ingenium killed would make much more impact. Anyway, this seems to be an arc to develop Iida's character and it looks promising.

[Random14]

These are some of my favorite chapters just for the name parts. Yay for Deku! Young Midoriya was so adorable in his All Might costume. And Bakugo's names are so... him. Only he would think King Explosion Murder could be a hero name.

I don't remember that flashback to how Aizawa got his name in the manga, although I haven't read that chapter for a bit. Still funny to see Present Mic like that (so their dynamic went all the way back to high school, huh?).

Poor Iida, he's really shaken. And if Stain's already killed or crippled several dozen heroes, Iida is way out of his league if he's going to try take on the hero killer.

Looking forward to Gran Torino. Deku could use another teacher as so far All Might hasn't got much ideas on how to help train Deku. And what the heck was All Might's training like?! Was it really that traumatic? At least they didn't delay the ketchup gag until next episode.

[Ultragunner]

To be fair, it would have been fine had Bakugo omitted the "murder" part , "Explosion King" sounds rad af haha

[Random14]

But then it wouldn't have that Bakugo-ness about it. His hero's name got to have kill or die or murder in it somewhere. He even says it while brushing his teeth after all.

Leave it to Tsuyu to zing Sero with the "you tried" comment, and Froppy sounds cute too. Though I like the Uravity pun too. Tokoyami is cool and powerful enough to get away with his name. Even Kaminari came up with a good name I thought (well, if can ever get over that weakness he'll do better). I wonder what Bakugo settled on. If "Can't Stop Twinkilng" passes, almost anything goes. Well, anything that doesn't sound ax-crazy.

[leongsh]

It is so Midoriya to use "Deku" as his hero name. I was guessing what name would suit him and when it was revealed, I thought it was a brilliant choice. He seems to be all about turning things around by changing perspectives. Go, Deku.

They are hinting that the next season is going go dark with Midoriya regretting not being more emphatic with Iida. Does this mean Iida would be taken out or crippled? I don't think they would kill him off but maybe put him out of commission is a possibility.

From what they highlighted for Todoroki, does it mean he may go intern at his father's agency?

I'm of two minds about this. It would be good as it would be one of the best places for him to train his fire side.

And yet, it hasn't been that long. I'm not sure if its too soon to go right into the fire of having to deal with your father all the time like that and the emotional trauma that comes with it, especially on your own. Also, with his father being such a jerk, I would fear that he would put Shoto through things not to train him but to punish him for not conforming to his will or something like that.

I mean, it is something Shoto will have to deal with eventually, but I'm just questioning if now was the best time or not.

There's a scene after the ED this week, by the way. Just in case anyone missed it.

Cute and straightforward, just like Tsuyu.

Yup. There'll be a break for a couple of weeks now, but after that its back to more adventures.

[Irenesharda]

I'm thinking Shoto and Tenya are going to need new names eventually. I think Tenya just didn't feel he was worthy of his brother's name and also that he's still very raw after everything. Shoto, in a way is the same in that he's still trying to find himself.

What kind of names could they have?

Shoto, could I call you "Song of Ice and Fire"?
(I mean, if "Can't Stop Twinkling" can be a thing, I think you could use a much more beautiful and meaningful phrase. )

And Tenya? Well, "ingenium" is a Latin word meaning "natural capacity or invention". If Tenya is going to be the same and yet a secondary version of that, you can use the Latin prefix for "again", being "re-" and he can call himself "Reingenium"?

It is possibly one of the best places for him to train and see what being a hero, and running a hero agency is like. His father, Endeavour, for all his obsession in one-upping All Might, is the 2nd highest ranked after All Might. Effectively, he is the best in the market now with All Might down to just doing teaching.

I don't think his father would punish him but he would probably be giving Shoto tougher tasks for an intern. He still wants Shoto to be better than All Might. Wasting that week on punishing Shoto would be counter-productive.

I mean, it is something Shoto will have to deal with eventually, but I'm just questioning if now was the best time or not.

It is better that he deals with it now to find his path. He does not need that pressure of avoiding his father building up again.

[Dengar]

Not sure if it was the right thing to not be more pushy with Iida, however, I wonder if it would have helped.

You know, because there's one thing I know. When I consider something to be my problem, and no one else, and someone else insists on butting in on my problem... I would punch them in the face until they left.

Not saying this is good or rational or anything. I'm just saying.

I hope you're right. I guess it depends on the person. Some people need more time to heal emotionally after such a harsh wound, before trying to face back against the fire and tackle demons. I mean, like a person who's been horribly burnt and then going back immediately to confront the person that burned them (who is not in the least bit apologetic), it could be therapeutic, but it also could be traumatic. I guess it just depends on how Shoto does.

I think it would depend on the person in trouble and the friend knowing the right approach. Some friends would have known when to leave you alone, but others would have taken the punches until you got tired and was finally ready to talk. It depends on the situation and how good the friend is.

In this case, I think Deku should definitely have brought it up. He knows Iida and he knows something is wrong, but he is hesitant because he's not sure of himself. However, what Iida is doing is tantamount to suicide, whether that be literal or career-wise. He's obviously going out to get revenge, and he's a 15-16 year old kid pumped with anger trying to go after a serial killer. He's throwing away his internship and could be expelled. And that's IF he's not killed!

I know Deku might not have thought about all of this, but he does know that something is really wrong.

I also think that Aizawa should have also have taken Iida aside and talked to him about his choice. I think he too has suspicions of what Iida is going to do. I know that's not Aizawa's style, but as a fellow teacher, I feel that it's a duty of a teacher to at least approach and talk to a student about his choice.

There are things I would not bother my friends with, even when they want to be bothered by it. And if they keep insisting, then they're not really friends, just meddlesome busybodies.

Again, not necessarily rational, but you have to understand how this works.
