I wonder, would both of them reconcile after the All Might "fight" or their relationship will remain love-hate relationship to the end.

It's gonna be a love hate for the rest of the series with maybe some mutual respect I don't see them becoming fast friends.

That is what i wanted actually. It felt lame if they became friends in next few upcoming chapters.

Maybe they should ended like All Might and Endeavor relationship?

where one is fully immersed in his job (and has no other life than that) and the other one became a piece of trash for the sake of feeling superior?

Deku has Ochako at least.

So he's not going to be exactly like Toshinori, who sacrificed everything to be "All Might" 24/7.

It's kind of poetic really, although sad.

The fact that the wound he received from "AFO" will probably kill him as soon as he loses all of OFA really nails home the point that Toshinori really is nothing without OFA and his "All Might" persona as when both of those go, he goes as well.

who knows, deku showed interest in girls but this doesnt mean he wont become like allmight :/ his dream was always to be a hero

yeah, exspecially since he is a really good guy,
i cant wait for the anime, imagine the FEELS

really awesome the way allmight was made right (i really hope they will do this for real and not troll the fans, even if chars die, if the author makes it correctly they can become more popular than most of the "surviving" chars

Anyone else see Navel Lazer right before the students were gonna spar with their senseis? Horikoshi's got some jokes man.

[marvelB]

BTW, there was something else I had meant to bring up earlier: I wonder if we'll see the principal take part in this test? Though even if he doesn't, I hope we get to see him in action soon enough, because I doubt he'd be made the principal of a hero school just for being a talking rat....

[marvelB]

And now it's time for spoilers:

Spoiler for 61:

First of all.... MATCHUPS!

Spoiler for matchups:

^Heh, I totally called Mineta being pitted against Midnight. And nice to see the principal taking part when I JUST addressed that in my post above.

Anyways, looks like the test will be held in a city, with all matches taking place at the same time. The objective of the test is for the students to either handcuff their opponent or to escape the battlefield through a hidden exit within 30 minutes' time. Basically, the point of the exam is to test the students' teamwork abilities. Todoroki tells Momo to stick close to him, which dissatisfies her. Meanwhile, Deku wants to find the escape route since he knows he can't beat All Might, but naturally Bakugou is being an asshole and wants to take on AM head-on. He punches Deku out of the way, saying that this will be his victory, and rushes towards All Might. The teacher himself says that such a poor demonstration of teamwork is a sure-fire way to fail the exam, and prepares to make his first move....




Welp, no surprise that Bakugou's being an ass as usual. Let's hope All Might beats some sense into him, eh?

[The One Above God]

^Time for some All Might-y asswhoopin'

[PrimeWhitebeard]

Spoiler:

Dont know if it was this forum but I remember some people claiming that bakugou, actually being really smart would cooperate with Deku since he knows he can't beat all might.

Evidently they were wrong, and bakugou is going to get one-shotted on the first page of the next chapter

He IS smart, but at the same time he's also really arrogant, impatient, egotistical, prideful, etc.

You can be really smart but an idiot at the same time.

Uh.... yeah, that was me, lol.

Spoiler for 61:

But note that even then, I already acknowledged that the chances of Bakugou cooperating was paper-thin, anyway. So it's not like I'm the least bit surprised by this development.

[Somethindarker]

Sure he's book smart and is a natural at fighting but when it comes to tactics or the greater good he's an insufferable idiot.

I'm calling it he's either gonna be suspended after this fight or straight up expelled, he's already in Eraserheads' crosshairs, being a hero means you have to represent the best of humanity if not you're just a thug who gets paid to hurt people. Stain wouldn't even target him.

So.... what does that make Endeavor, then? You know, the abusive dad who still managed to take the #2 hero position? I know someone else mentioned that he kept the domestic abuse under wraps when I last brought this up, but does keeping a few skeletons in the closet truly represent "the best of humanity"?

Again, Endeavor.

You missed the point. Stain is a psychopath who was killing heroes who were , in his eyes, not acting like heroes(and he DID go after Endeavor btw). Endeavor IS the most successful and prolific hero that we know of and was targeted by Stain but it doesn't change the fact that he's an amazing hero in his own right. Endeavor is two faced, acts all heroic to the public but behind the scenes he's calculating, vindictive and will do anything to get what he wants, he's a hypocrite which fits Stains M.O. Heroes are supposed to be selfless like All Might but most are like Mt. Lady who just want T.V. time and publicity to expand their business, that's not saying there aren't selfless heroes or genuinely good ones.

Bakugou on the other hand doesn't act like a hero at all he attacks his comrades, he's cruel and acts like an all around scumbag(which he is). Like Eraserhead said he's only getting worse with every passing day he's seeing everyone around him getting better and better and improving themselves while he's just stuck in a rut, and instead of looking for others for help or looking at himself to ask "how can I get better?" what does he do? He gets more and more belligerent with out caring about how other people view him thus Stain wont go after him because he's a scumbag and doesn't hide it so he doesn't fit the M.O.

Thug that is paid to hurt people? I thought it was consensus long ago.

See that's the thing for all we've seen and know of Endeavor he's actually an amazing hero who is, popularity aside, more accomplished than All Might. He's not a "thug" or like Mt. Lady an "attention whore" he runs his hero group well and protects innocents in fact aside from creating and training Shouto isn't as scumbaggy as everyone makes him out to be. He just got carried away.

[marvelB]

@Somethingdarker: I'm not ignoring the fact that Endeavor is an expert in his field. I mean, he's the second-ranked hero for a darn good reason, after all. But I still say that those aforementioned skeletons in his closet make it hard to see him as the model hero that society claims him to be. Bakugou may be a total prick, but at least he's honest about his dickishness, as unpleasant as that fact may be (and something several characters have called him out on already, at that).


If I had to make a (very) loose comparison, I suppose I'd say that Endeavor is like Ozymandias while Bakugou is sort of a Rorschach (again, this is a very loose comparison). One is a two-faced opportunist who appears "perfect" in the eyes of the public, while the other is perceived by everyone as a violent maniac (which he in fact is, lol), but at least he DOES know what the heck he's doing when it comes to fighting crime, even if said crimefighting methods prove to be rather..... unsavory, to put it lightly. So I guess my ultimate point here is that Bakugou still could be recognized as a hero (or at least a vigilante), despite his vulgar attitude.... after all, aren't anti-heroes popular, too?




Oh, and yes, I already know Stain had Endeavor in his target list. In fact, that was the reason why I brought him up in the first place.

Stain was going to kill Iida because he was too hell-bent on revenge to care about saving lives. Who's to say he wouldn't target Bakugou for similar reasons (ESPECIALLY considering that guy's violent nature)?

ähhhm, actually, did you see the #2 of the heroes?
he brought his wife to get a mental collapse, if anything, the heroes in BNHA dont represent the best of mankind, they have flaws and this is good...

"got carried away" doesnt describe close of how much sh*t he did...
if #2 can become a "hero" with all his seflishness, and if midnight becomes popular and a hero too, and if others who simply work for the money become heroes too, than what makes kacchan different than them?

btw, i remember somewhere in the first few chapters kacchan denied to smoke a cigarette because it would go against the law (underage etc), so, he is still more "heroic" than the ones who dont do anything (normals) or outright do wrong things (villians)...
expelling him from the school could actually result in a typical "revenge-seeking-char" nobody wants that XD

PS: im curious about the things eraserhead said to allmight, mostlikely it concerns kacchan (afterall everyone else is rather "finished" (ok, momo deserves screentime, she needs to show what she can do, imagine that she creates guns/bombs and uses them...actually, her quirck is really powerful if it would be used in the correct way))
