Well, unless you do something explosively memorable, then you get a buncha different nicknames and not a few.

Isn't that right, Mr. Shigaraki!?

Early on I expected All Might to joke about how in the early generations his predecessors thought it had to be some big ritual where you drink their blood from a goblet and that the hair thing was a major improvement.

Yeah, she's pretty cool looking and I want to see what she can do, what little characterization she as had so far makes her look like a really fun character.

She seems really jazzed and happy about everything and that's cool and rad. I also like Creation girl a lot though really.

Urarakais probably at the bottom end of characters I like, but I still like her, this manga just has a lot of really good and interesting characters. The only one I flat out don't like is probably Bakugou and even he is kinda interesting I guess.

Poor All Might. I mean he's not the best-looking dude, but I can't help but feel sorry for him now that you've brought that up.

I actually find Todoroki pretty intriguing, if mostly by implication. Kid's the obvious one to watch out for, effortlessly outclassing pretty much everyone, yet for all his prowess comes off awfully subdued, taciturn. Not that unusual in and of itself, but in light of certain comments he's made (his "Casual" knowledge of necrosis, his concern for classmates caught in his range), I wouldn't be surprised to learn he's got some real horror stories behind that quirk of his. When he was younger maybe, when his powers were still developing.

Probably holds a low opinion of Bakugou's impulsiveness, if not Bakugou in general.

I believe the method of power transfer is ingestion only. So he can still get it on with the ladies... just not that one way.

Kinda hoping he at least learned how to control his power a bit here. The whole schtick where Midoriya has to barely scrape over the lowest bar needed to move on since he can't use his powers is already getting kinda old.

(Although my silly quirk guess is that Icy-Hot's mother has costume makeup powers and she when she's not using them on set, she makes her family look cool or adorable as she desires. Icy-Hot doesn't have her powers, but he has inherited her fashion sense.)

I think his flashback will probably focus on the burn on his face, and why his hero suit covers his fire side with ice.

We have seen it a little, he melted the ice he made during the first test All Might held, after getting the 'nuke', to free the other kids from it.

We finally saw the first sign of the Hawk-boy's powers. Looks like something involving shadows, although I'm still wondering why he needs to look like a bird for that power.

We've actually seen him use them a few times already, but its always been in the background, I think

Huh, just noticed that the weird kid from the non-hero class, the one with the dead eyes and wavy hair, seems to have some sort of mind control quirk or something. After Todoroki goes and freezes everything over, his method of getting away from it is sitting atop a bunch of other students who are holding him up and having some very odd, somewhat empty expressions on their faces. Nasty if that is what I think it is. I think we've got one of our big student antagonists right there.

So far the characters that seem to get the most screentime in the class are like, Tsuyu, Frostburn, Ashido, Creation Girl, Grapeboy, and Hardening kid? Besides the obvious Uraraka/Ilda/Bakugou/Deku.


That's a pretty big 'main' cast though. Ashido probably doesn't count, just for some reason she always seems to be present in like all the group panels and stuff.
