Dammit Deku you totally had the chance to say "Because I'm here!" and you don't take it?!

Still though, yet another good chapter. Actually kinda curious about the setup here, since its deliberately trying to nix Deku's options from when he fought Stain, whilst also giving him a roughly 'level' opponent (ie, another super strength user with seemingly few other gimmicks). I'm left wondering if it'll be a matter of pure skill, or if some clever use of the environment'll be necessary.

It'll probably be the kid hulking out which in some way teaches Deku how to access a new level of All For One.

The interesting thing is that outside of the 3 dudes we apparently didn't see yet, Midoriya is stuck fighting the only one with known kills on pro heroes.

And this guy killed TWO in one go.

I read MS and WSJ side by side and one thing bothered me.

On the last page, Deku is doubting whether or not he can win against the villain and protect Kouta at the same time, then he looks back and sees Kouta crying. In MS he says "I am so hosed!!" while in WSJ he says "No, I have to!" I'd have to read the original to know which is true but the WSJ one is certainly better for Deku's character.

EDIT: Obvs MS being bad isn't news, but it's the stark difference between the two that stood out to me.

Pretty sure it's the later. That first translation doesn't sound like Deku at all.

Freaking great chapter. Pretty much every series in Jump this week was really good.

I fee like one way he could win is to somehow do something that challenges his opponent in terms of pure strength and releasing more of OfA's power after fooling him into thinking he's weaker. That being said, I doubt this will happen since it looks like Deku's done with the self-harming use of his power.

It just lacks some of the character scanlations have given it. All Might isn't as boistrous, Bakugou's sailor mouth is obviously a little less severe (understandable but still unfortunate), everyone just comes across ever so slightly more boring.

Also while he did not get too much attention. Monoma is hilarious.

Spoilers and stuff seem to be coming out at the usual times (late Wednesday/Thursday) again, which is cool. :toot:

Short nondescriptive spoiler if Chinese summary is right: Midoriya owns. In Non-Midoriya things, there is a very grim implication for one of the students/teachers not accounted for yet.

Shouji's limbs don't regenerate as far as I know. He can just turn them into different parts of his body. Also he's huge and his arms are webbed together.

The villains are definitely not loving around with this attack, especially if that arm actually belongs to someone. Interesting that besides Deku, Bakugou seems to be the highest priority target. Maybe it's because he was the winner of the sports festival?

Also looking forward to a full power One For All blow next week.

I'm being hopeful that there isn't going to be any reversal to this. Deku's plan was pretty good given the situation, and even if a 100% OfA blow misses just the shockwave would probably still do damage from that distance. More importantly, Deku will be useless after this, so it kind of has to work unless he's going to rescued by someone (which I doubt since it explicitly had him thinking about how no one will come to rescue him).

the severed arm was pretty morbid, and a bit further than I was expecting this to go. wonder if it actually is one of the kids' arms or if there's something more to it, like maybe one of their quirks is regeneration/it's a prop/it's something that villain set up to unnerve them

They said the guys ahead of them were Tokoyami and Shouji. The latter has spares. Prepared to bet he sacrificed one (or several) to Cenobite-dude so they could flee.

That guy is going to lose his head and Deku's arm is going to come off.

I will actually be kinda annoyed if this is true.

Yeah, there's like no scenario where this ends well for Deku because I'm pretty sure he'll either kill the dude and totally mess himself up because of that or he won't and then the dude will do something very unpleasant.
