They could have given Mina OfA in that but of course they flubbed it.

Electro Froppy. Super Chuuni Todoroki. Dark Flame Tokyami. Timid and useless Bakugo. Badass Momo... I would love a mini-episode or one-shot about every single character in that spread.

So, I'm a big dumb nerd who likes power levels and who can beat who discussions, at least when it comes to stuff like this. I only watched up to the Overhaul Arc and I need to finish the rest of Season 4. But I do know of the High End Nomu fight with Endeavor. watched it already per request of a friend. So the difference between All Might/All For One and everybody else is vast. But Endeavor was still the #2 Hero and the Nomu took him for all he was worth. Is High End stronger than USJ Nomu? Is he the strongest non-AFO antagonist we've seen?

Flies, regenerates, doesn't give a poo poo about pain, shapeshifts - even if you assume that the USJ Nomu is more physically resilient thanks to the shock absorption, you'd still probably rather be dealing with it than High-End.

Total cases solved (Endeavor was apparently #1 at that), merchandizing, glad-handing, generally being inspiring, there's a ton of politics that goes into the rankings. But yeah, High End was crazy strong.

And in terms of raw combat prowess, Endeavor probably has as compelling an argument to being the strongest non-All Might hero as anybody - which of course is not to say that he was at all in All Might's league.

For all we know High End did have shock absorption, it just never came up. But yeah, it's certainly stronger than the USJ Nomu.

USJ Nomu is also kind of an idiot. Planning and logic in the High End model? Yikes.

I think in terms of pure physical specs, USJ Noumu is stronger, since it was literally made to fight All Might, and even after All Might went beyond the limits of his remaining OFA to beat it, the thing was still physically fine. Even in his nerfed state, All Might was still the strongest hero around by a long shot, so the fact that USJ Noumu could trade blows with him says a lot about its strength. The Highend did do more property damage which makes it feel more destructive, but I feel that's more a case of the two Noumus fighting different opponents in different locations. All Might's fighting style is pretty much taking any blow that the enemy tosses at him, so the USJ Noumu didn't really need to target anything else, whereas Endeavor was flying around and fighting in an urban area with buildings and poo poo. On the other hand, USJ Noumu was dumber than a sack of bricks, and only managed to hurt All Might because Kurogiri was backing it up. Meanwhile, the Highend was capable of thinking, and actively sought out fights due to its battle-hungry nature. So I'd say that USJ Noumu was more powerful, but Highend was far more dangerous.

One of the characters in Vigilantes is just a really buff quirkless dude who uses knuckledusters to beat the poo poo out of criminals. There's even a bit where (early-spoilers) he gets into a fight with Aizawa about being a vigilante who realises he doesn't have a quirk and just lets him go. Because I guess regular vigilantism isn't something heroes can deal with if its not involving quirks or something?

I haven't read any of the spinoff, but given the world building the Heroes system seems like it was designed when quirks were just starting to become a thing to prevent an X-Men situation. Heroes deal with quirk crimes, search and rescue, but they're not the police. Licensing, training, promotion and merchandising all come along with the agreement to not overstep boundaries and get in the way of (at the time) the majority of normal people. Generations later, quirks are the supermajority of the population, but the same traditional divide exists.

The implication I got from that scene was heroes aren’t really intended to fight crime, per se, just either use their quirks for assistance in emergency relief or act as a hard counter for criminals using their own quirks. Regular crime, like a dude who just goes around beating the poo poo out of people with normal unaugmented human strength, is not part of their job because they aren’t actually law enforcement.

I agree. You never see a hero stop a purse snatcher or whatever. There’s no friendly neighborhood Spider-Man here. Gentle got attention, as did those four guys who robbed a convenience store, sure, but by using their quirks, they escalated to the point where heroes were allowed to intervene. I mean, Deku and Lemillion ALMOST intervened to save a small child, but stepping in against obvious child abuse and stepping in against a bar fight or some guy are very different.

The parallels to X-Mena are many but the important difference is MHA has progressed passed the Mutant/Quirk Pogrom Stage. In fact, Professor X was right is the message of MHA. It makes MHA stand out a bit. I wonder if there was ever a Quirk Magneto.

The thing about MHA's world that's funny is that it kinda proves that registration is not that big of a deal.

Funky Valentine posted:At least, when the amount of superpowered people greatly outnumber the non-superpowered people as opposed to the other way around which is what every "Mutant registration" story was. That's the sort of crux to the whole thing. The majority being registered and regulated is an enormously different situation compared to the minority being registered and regulated paritally because of the historical context of minorities being registered and tracked and the motivation and consequences for it. It's especially relevant for the X-Men, not just because of the above, but because it was a deliberate story point influenced by the creators, Jack Kirby and Stan Lee, who were both Jewish and children of immigrants.

e: nevermind lol wonder when in 2021 we're getting the new season... or if. It seems more and more of the stuff we previously were getting next year is getting pushed back further these days. I also gotta read vigilantes one of these days, where in the story does it start/continue into? I'm kind of just fine waiting for the anime to continue the story and I don't want to pick up the manga itself for the main series yet.

So an earlier poser reminded me that the Hero Rankings aren't just about power which is a fact I often overlook because the relationship between All Might #1 and Endeavor #2 is explicitly all about power levels. That said, I'm fairly certain Endeavor is absolutely the strongest Pro other than All Might, isn't he? Then again, some of the kids in MHA are so absurdly strong that they might surpass almost all the Pros we know of. Who could have taken down Overhaul like Izuku did with his Infinite 100%? I know it might be cringe to reference Naruto but it's a good contrast here because in Part 1, even the best ninja kids were only on par with maybe a fodder Jounin. The "Pro Ninjas" were all in a different league from any of the kids, even monsters like Gaara or Naruto. In MHA, the kids are already way above many of the adults.

Even excepting the people like Todoroki and Deku with completely 1000% busted quirks, I'm pretty sure it's said in-universe at some point that Bakugo's combat prowess is on a pro level. He's just got a lack of experience and, uh... other issues he needs to work on. (Also he's like 15 and it shows.)
