No those are a type of mushroom that can grow in your throat and lungs. (And any other place in your body.) They are not toxic, their spores can just grow there.

I uh, do you know anything about infectious diseases? Because an uncontrolled fungal infection in your lungs is Extremely Bad. This is about as bad as if you had telekinesis and you used it to pinch cerebral arteries to knock people out.

Kaminari doesn't really have that much output either, he definitely wouldn't last long enough to keep a single household going for one day before running out of juice. If anything people with useful quirks would probably do something like what firebenders in Korra did, get paid to do a couple shifts at the power plant zapping capacitors in your spare time.

Isn’t that literally part of his plot in the first Avengers?

People can be forgiven for not watching any of the Avengers

lol at the implication that tetsutetsu tetsutetsu can ever lose

Considering these school fights are operating under "punch people in the head so hard they go unconscious rules or else get choked out by foreign objects in your windpipe" I think he's got this one in the bag

Aoi Yuuki is a frog and a pony I think asking her to be also an english is a little much

Kaede Hondo played her before and she was recast probably because it's an incredibly minor part and they already had Aoi Yuuki on hand plus who knows what it's like to wrangle a VA for a couple lines during Covid Times. Also it's probably cheaper to just get Aoi Yuuki to do it.

It does make sense that Izuku Bakugo and Todoroki would all be with Aizawa. Each of them is dangerous enough that having the no quirks now guy around during all their training sessions is pretty mandatory.

As for why Bakugo can keep up, remember he’s been training all his life for being a hero and his fighting style involves exposing himself to high power explosives point blank. The toughness of humanity in general seems to have gone up and Bakugo in particular uses explosions to fly.

Also Bakugo is a literal genius

yeah for how powerful bakugo's quirk is in combat, i did really appreciate when they spent some time going into how it's also really hard to use, bakugo just makes it look easy. all of those precise midair acrobatics bakugo does require having a pretty well ingrained sense of physics and also a lot of control over the strength and angle of his explosions, if you gave a bunch of people that same power very few would be able to do half the poo poo he does. hell that he manages to make a safe landing more than 40% of the time is probably pretty remarkable in itself.

honestly if the show wanted to get into it (it definitely doesn't) there's probably some decent parallels between bakugo and lemillion there

The main difference between Bakugo and Mirio is that Mirio had to work hard to get his quirk to a place where it is dominating but Bakugo is a natural so he already started ahead and he's a hardworker which is also kind of why Deku pisses him off. Bakugo knows he's talented but he's been working his rear end off since day 1 to be the strongest despite how a lot of people would rest on their laurels and out of dumb luck this kid he knew is surpassing him.

It falls under the same weaknesses of AfO, like how Best Jeanist's quirk is useless to AfO because it takes a lifetime to master it.

The most logical ultimate move for him to develop would be Quirk Synthesis where he merges properties of copied quirks together, like if he could mix Todoroki's ice with Bakugo's explosions to basically make plastic explosives.

Mindz doesn't even work as a Hero name. It's pretty clearly Mines because every impact he makes in an area turns it into a proverbial minefield.

Well he also did make some pseudosciencey link between a quirk influencing one's personality so in this world having a stress quirk predisposes you towards it etc
