It would be cool if Deku also using gadgets to increase his versatility in the battle.

ch 101 is already out and we get a lot of focus on invention-girl

i like how she doesnt give a fu about the whole "boy-girl"-BS that is usually used in mangas,
she also seems like a prodigy if it comes to gadgets :O

i was kind of suprised to see deku in a total exoskelet, it reminded me on the people who complained about the story since they thought it would be quirk-less deku becoming a batman like figure in the story XD

still, he finally found his style, he isnt a person to use his hands, seems like his control is better if it comes to his legs, that means he will now focus on moves that are centered around his legs,
it was interesting to see that one-part of dekus special-move library consistet of AMs feats and kacchans feats (he really sees bakugou as someone he wants to overcome XD)

shadow-boys way of using his ability reminds me on the way this rashomon-user from bungou stray dogs uses his ability, in the manga he has a similar move, something like "Rashomon Demon Armor", he takes rashomon and bends it around his body in order to improve his fragile body, shadow-boy does the same, plus, we got a "profile page" of him, seems like the most weakened stage of dark shadow is even weaker than a cockroach :O

todo only had a single panel like most of the class, mineta does something with his balls,

and bakugou seems to have invented a concentrated blast instead of using his whole palm, mostlikely like a armor-piercing attack, the problem seems to be the need for both of his hands and that it doesnt have a big range like his explosion-blast, but in close range, if he hits, he will be able to do massive damage,
oh yeah, according to AMs words bakugou even invented several special moves :O

Uh.... maybe it's just me, but I swear that Mineta's grape-rope basically looks like giant anal beads, lol.


Anyways, fun chapter! Nice to see Hatsume get more focus. I actually hope this means we get to see more focus on the kids from the other classes too, particularly Shinsou (the mind control kid). Anyways, I guess Deku intends to pull a Sanji for the time being and restrict the use of his arms? At least, it seems he'll be relying more on his legs until the condition of his arms improve. Plus, kicks are technically stronger than punches anyway, so....


Also, I'd actually find it kinda cool if Iida decided to keep that arm booster upgrade for his suit. Imagine throwing punches at mach 2 speed!

This is Mineta we're talking about. Do you really think that was unintentional?

Anyway, looks like Deku's got armor on his legs too. Hopefully it includes some kinetic dampening as well, since he's still entirely capable of breaking his legs when overusing OfA.

I'd be willing to bet there is dampening in both the arms and legs armors. Rather than learning martial arts, It seems as if Deku may create his own martial art to control his massive power. Not sure about sticking with the smash move names though. I mean I understand that it's a tribute to All-Might so it's kinda ok but I'd also like to see him alter the names to express his individuality in it.

btw was that kick one of Iida's moves? was wondering if that was what he wanted Iida to teach him.

One thing of note, Hatsume was great. From back in my days of turning wrenches for a living I understand that working in shop conditions you wear what keeps you cool and comfortable without worrying about appearances. Lots of skin shows but after doing about a week of 12 hr shifts everyone only cares about getting the job done. Her outfit makes perfect sense to me from that standpoint it would be weird if she was too buttoned up. Maybe they could have used a T-shirt instead of a Tank top but whatever works in the situation so it doesn't really matter at the end of the day.

I think sticking to the smash naming convention is fine. All the more so since All Might is effectively retired. His personal choice is wanting to honor his idol as much as he can without limiting his ability and that's working out ok here. He wants the costume to stay in that state as much as he can, likely both to honor his mom and also All Might.

He can be creative just by leaving the borders of the US for his Smash names .

I'd guess he just wanted some tips from Iida on using your legs for fighting and maybe also for controlling high speed movements.

I like the idea he came up with. Make more use of his whole body. His legs might be able to take more of a strain than his arms anyways. Until he reaches the point where he can fully handle all that power, this should be an effective upgrade.

I don't think using the state names for smash moves will be a problem. As long as the moves themselves are unique and show Deku's influence in them, it's fine. He could also branch out by using different states or a different naming convention.

...Tunguska smash?

[Random14]

Huh, easy to forget about Deku's legs considering All Might usually just punches things (or swipes at them super fast). They broke early on too (like when he was rushing somewhere), but as long as he's careful, hopefully that'll give his body time to adjust to OFA more.

After how many of the other training arcs were interrupted by villain attacks, nice to all of them improving their abilities at least a little. Things are only going to get harder from here on out.

[Sixth]

It is nice that Deku is now using other than his arm, but why is Deku focusing on leg part now? I mean, he never strikes me as a good runner or some who is confident with his legging skills. Plus, how does using leg will help him to lessen the OFA effect?

Hatsume is simply endearing crazy girl. Also, it was a nice touch for Deku not forgetting his root and stick to her mother's design.

I wonder, how many special moves that Bakugou has now under his belt.

[KLGChaos]

I think it's going to get a point where he starts using his whole body more. He's used his legs in the past and they've gotten pretty bad themselves. Even if he starts kicking everything, he's going to start hurting his legs when he has to go full power against stronger opponents. Sure, legs are a bit more durable and can take more punishment, but I doubt they'll be able to handle One of All's power much better than his arms-- and instead could hurt his mobility if overused.

It's been said over and over that he needs to strengthen his base. I think he should focus on that as well as better support gadgets.

The problem with that is that strengthening his base to the degree that he would need in order to use OfA without danger is going to be the process of years. He simply doesn't have the time.

I dunno, he has the entire 3 years of his High School career. As far as I can tell, he's only halfway through his first year now.

And, depending on manga length, we might get an extra year post education to finish the series

His first thought of improving himself when he was with Gran Torino was jumping between walls. His mimicking of Bakugou's moves as well when he made Full Cowl is also making use of swift leg movements. It's just that now he's going to be using his legs as a form of offense. That would also make him less dependent on punching, thus making his arms heal a bit more. It would also differentiate himself from All Might who's all about punching.

[LevelSeven]

^^i dont think that 4 years will make him already #1, not if the author wants to keep the other students on a similar lvlas deku,

i wouldnt be surpised if after the highschool time we get a timeskip of a year or more and than we see the kids struggle in their hero-carriers,
furthermore, #2 endeavor already showed how big his lvl is, so either this will be like naruto where the main chars surpass adults in 3 or so years or we will get to see deku and co growing up to be 25 or so before reaching the top of the hero world

[Kanon]

Hatsume is seriously awesome. And from the sound of it, we're going to see a lot more of her in the future. Her inventions are a bit too much for now though.

Normally Deku would have time to get used to it... but the problem is that things are already falling apart. Look at All Might, he inherited OFA then went to UA, where Gran Torino "tutored" him in how to use it. Then he went on to become the symbol of peace and take down AFO, he had the time to grow into it.

Deku's barely had OFA for less than a year, but All Might has retired, Gran Torino is old, and Shigaraki is just going to keep becoming more dangerous and gain more followers. There's also some sort of spy/traitor at UA too. The way things are going, Deku is probably going to have to join the war before his third year.

It'd be nice if there was a bit of a time skip, say to third year, but I don't think Deku will have time to gradually increase his endurance for OFA. By using his legs to attack, at least this will lessen the strain on Deku's arms (which are already almost permanently damaged). He's getting better at 5%, just that he ran into a really tough villain which required 100% (and more). I hope Deku can reach 10% without breaking any more bones.

Guess it depends on what the structure of this manga ends up looking like. I wouldn't be surprised if the good guys won by the end of Deku's third year, he graduates, and that's the happy ending (with maybe a future epilogue). Maybe it'll even kind of end up like Harry Potter. This series is My Hero Academia after all, so I expect a graduation ending eventually.

Ah hatsume, how i do love the mad scientist types
And i can really never get enough of her eyes

The immediate problem that deku is having is the risk of injury to his arms. Because of how far he went during the camping trip his arms in very real danger of suffering from permanent injury. If Deku learns to rely more on his legs for combat, it will lessen the burden on his arms and thus make it less likely he'll suffer permanent injury

It's just like how Mixed Martial arts fighter deal with their injury, if their fist is damaged, just kick instead, the point is not being a master at kick, but to find other means of attack to lessen the damage to your main attack, it's a bit like Jab and straight in boxing. The main goal is that Deku could lessen the damage on his fist, and normally, Leg are a lot stronger than arm.
