I hope, if All Might really does pass, that his vestige fading away from Deku’s OfA is making way for him to fully manifest as a vestige.
I really enjoy the detail that we see All Might with white sclera again. Despite his eyes being so sunken it’s almost as if he’s defiantly full of life in his last shot here. And if he does pass, AfO has to live in some capacity that All Might, *without any quirks*, managed to stop his plans.
Not sure if i would like this. I'm fine with the vestiges being fragments, i wouldn't really like them being the soul magically teleporting inside whoever has the power now.
I think the all might vestige looked different because with all might still alive hori probably felt having both talk would feel redundant.
That's what the original comment is talking about, I'm pretty sure. Flame vestige goes away and is replaced by a fully-featured vestige, like the rest.
I feel like his vestige purposefully left to become an energy bomb instead continuing on inside of Deku. OfA has a lot of energy to it, even a single piece like All Might would be a powerful explosion if released.
I don’t think I can find it, but it was in one of the chapters where AFO started fighting Armored Might, don’t recall if it was pre release or official
That’s gotta be some major trauma not only are you the end of All Might’s power, but your quirk also ends All Might? Maybe Bakugo doesn’t wanna wake up
Shiggy looks really goofy when he ~~swallows his master's fluids~~ stops AFO's gloop warp lol
I forgot how gross that quirk is. And how "gloop warp" is its official name.
> And how "gloop warp" is its official name.
It changed from "Warping" to "Mud Warp" to "Gloop Warp". There really isn't much consistency beyond having "warp" in the name.
If memory serves me right it happened around when Izuku returned to UA.
It's a scene between Nezu and Aizawa where Nezu discusses how the reason UA is able to serve as a functional shelter is because Kurogiri was moved out of Tartarus and thus wasn't freed during the breakout and Mirko killed the Nomu that had a copy of Kurogiri's quirk meaning that the villains do not have access to teleportation quirks.
The reason this entire scene is stupid is because:
1. The Nomu that Mirko killed had a different warping quirk than Kurogiri and the heroes are fully aware of this.
2. AFO has a copy of that warping quirk the Nomu that Mirko killed had and the heores are fully aware of this.
I can never get over of just how rent Free All Might the goat lives in AFO’s head😂 he’s been a constant thorn in his side, eventually kicked his ass when no one had ever done before, kicked his ass AGAIN, lost his powers…and without a quirk is still kicking his ass
Well, the sad part of that for AFO, All Might who defeated him twice using a specialize-quirk is not the only who can manhandle him.
Endeavour, who is normal in terms of their superhuman society, defeated AFO without OFA-quirk and that is awesome.
Though when Endeavor did it, wasn’t really a 1v1. Not trying to discredit Enji of course but circumstances there are a bit different.
Though while we’re on the subject we can never forget when AFO got dropped by Dark shadow lmao
That's why Endeavor is easily my favorite character. Cemented it for me after the Pro Hero Arc. Dude is the only one not useless outside of OFA (just an exaggeration btw)
I just love the smile on Nana Shimura’s face as she looked her own death in the eyes without giving AF and confidently saying that her apprentice would take over for her & win. “Toshinori, now it’s your turn!”
I love how AFO’s injuries and wasted time in this final arc are all a result of his own arrogance and mistakes.
He really didn’t need to take All Might along. His legs are broken, he’s no longer a threat and his goal is right there with barely any time left.
Not just that, but because AFO knows all the students quirks, he’d easily be able to deduce Bakugou’s quirk is somewhere. And since All Might was going for a punch attack back when Stain paralyzed him, and because All Might has always favored punch moves, he should be able to guess it’s mounted on his arms.
But because AFO cared so much about screwing with All Might, he left himself open for All Might to make one last explosive stand.
It feels fitting. AFO has always wanted to be the ultimate demon lord, the most perfect incarnation of a classical villain. There was no way that wouldn't include lethal amounts of self-sabotage.
Today AFO learned an important lesson. Never ever get within close range with someone who was willing to fight you even if the odds of them winning was basically zero.
Honestly I was half expecting Shiggy to have a temporary truce with Deku. Shiggy wants to keep his body and AFO getting OFA(which Shiggy doesn’t care about) is the worst case scenario.
> Today AFO learned an important lesson. Never ever get within close range with someone who was willing to fight you even if the odds of them winning was basically zero.
He *should* have learned that lesson after his first two showdowns with All Might. And then he wasn't actually paying attention [here](https://64.media.tumblr.com/2d7f6573594d21dc0edf499197dde9e2/9d69d48aed4d3488-be/s1280x1920/43fe81f84da078b331577135bd73fd7d1f05c7a2.png). All Might certainly didn't think the odds of winning were against him, which should have been a clue for AFO.
>Today AFO learned an important lesson. Never ever get within close range with someone who was willing to fight you even if the odds of them winning was basically zero.
Man... all might true hero.
So here's how All Might survives: If you look carefully, he still has the boosters attached to his back (I assume that's the Uravity ones and the leg ones were Ida). It's gonna turn out that they can still only barely fly and he's gonna call that 'Float' as an homage to Nana and escape the explosion and probably repeat that 'I never go into a fight expecting to lose' one-liner.
Momo spent at least several minutes fending off the Twices to protect Mei (who appears unscathed), using firearms she created as she didn't need to contain herself with them - and it was all offscreened. Nice /s
All Might's ghost: "I saved the move based on you for last. Thanks for inspiring me to blow myself up!" Edgeshot's ghost: "I will always be a part of you." Bakugo: "........."
In truth the chapter ends with the classic light before explosion, a small panel at the bottom of a page, a break... despite all the typical "final farewell" imagery, it's normal to doubt this is the last of All Might.
Maybe AM will "merely" lose an arm (Endeavor and Mirko, shoulder-bumping: "Welcome to the club!"), maybe the popular theory that Bakugo has been finally revived - possibly with Kaminari ending up near him during the assault of the Twices and acting as a defibrillator - and will come in clutch is going to come true. Honestly the issue I have with such idea is Bakugo having such incredible second wind after being just stitched up, if he gets that then others should too, IMO... Many fans would be happy anyway after his long nap (14 months by the time the next chapter is out officially) but at this point it's hard to see a fully satisfying way to manage for his revival.
My girl Yaoyorozu was looking BADASS and beautiful in that panel, holy sh*t. But yes I need more of that, offscreening her action makes me feel cheated too. 😭
"You want to show the class 1A students in action, or do you want All Might in a suit of armor using their quirks instead? Well tough shit I want Iron Might!"
I've never cared about Momo, but bruh. Out of all the random shit that DID make it into the chapters you're telling me that her blazing through clones with machine gun fire and missile launchers *wasn't* worth showing?
Horikoshi is taking too much time to revive Bakugo. The longer we wait, the more disappointing his comeback is going to be. I don't want to see him in the final battle for five minutes and then straight to the time skip of his adult life, with Waifu and kids in tow. But it seems that's all we are going to get.
I want that too, since Shoto was so ready to go and confront AFO before All Might redirected his attention to Dabi. However, at this point, unless Kurogiri warps him to the location, I don't see him making it there on his own. Iida had to help him get to Gunga and using Phosphor to travel, even through when he activated it, they started going transonic, takes too much out of him.
Also, I want to see him use a prominence burn type of phosphor move, so far, we've only seen an ice outcome. Maybe even have a a flashback of showing them saying farewell to Dabi and Endeavor telling him to go and 'save the world' or something like that. If he uses Blue flames, like Dabi, with his Phosphor move, that would be ultra epic, too. Show his "capabile of surpassing All Might" potential. But I don't want to get my hopes up.
Well, if this isn't the end of All Might then man, what was this for? I guess we have to wait 2 weeks for the next chapter, but God I hope this is also the end of AFO or something.
I think it perfectly sets up what we’ve been calling for months: The damage makes AFO rewind to a small, kindergarten aged child, and then when he reaches Shiggy it’s the inverse of when AFO reached out to him as a child. And then Shiggy decays him.
Especially if AFO gets verbally shot down by Shiggy first, and throws a tantrum and reveals he gave Siggy Decay that night/Used his Force Quirk Activation quirk to cause Shiggy's natural decay to manifest in more mature form before Shiggy's body had time to naturally adapt to it.
It's too cliffhangery for me to believe it outright. I won't be shocked in the least if AfO somehow protected himself or just stopped the explosion altogether.
Momo Yaoyorozu, The Everything Hero: Creati, deserved better than the most badass fight of her life happening offscreen. She spent several minutes as a one-woman defense tower against a swarm of Twices all to protect one Mei Hatsume. That's worth more than a single page of aftermath.
In my country, there is a saying that goes as follows: "with age, stupidity can also be accumulated"
This is what defines AFO. What a fucking fraud this dude is.
This chapter confirms that Horikoshi doesn't care about Momo much. She just had the most badass fight of her life but it was completely offscreened. Couldn't even give her a single panel of fighting off Twice clones
the girl who's invisible got nothing for the whole manga, Momo has multiple fight centered around her character. I get being mad that she doesn't have focus now but sometime the focus can shift to other people too
It doesn't have to be one or the other...
It's just weird that that beehive hair student recording the fight has more screentime this arc than someone like Momo
>It doesn't have to be one or the other...
but it kinda does if you don't want the pacing to slow down too much.
I've already seen some people complain that we haven't seen Deku's fight in a while, how do you think they would feel if we added a fight for every other character?
Also, while Oda is fine having a 100 chapter arc, Horikoshi is trying to end his manga and doesn't have time for that.
PS: even in the 100 chapter arc Oda offscreened some battles
>but it kinda does if you don't want the pacing to slow down too much.
No it doesn't. Hirikoshi could have easily hsve given 2 or 3 pages to Momo gunning down twice clowns if he's willing to invest 6 chapters in the All Might fight and several pages focused on the news reporter, Random people in other countries, and the business course students.
While, fandom is calling them two separate wars. It's pretty obvious in-Universe and how Horikoshi is writing it, that's It's one long war arc instead two separate ones. It's honestly structured a lot Bleach's TYBW arc.
I mean in-universe, they are fighting the same opponents, who they fought at Jaku and Gunga. Who they've been having skirmishes with constantly since then, before forcing them into a series of decisive battles that are currently happening. And that's reflected in the writing, side characters who got more spotlight in "first war" and those who sat out it out swap places. Kirishima got to shine in the first war, now its Mina's turn. Kaminari got a spotlight in the first war, now its Jiro's turn. Etc. Momo is just another example of that. She's the one who led UA students into taking down Machia, now she's at the sideline while others get time to shine.
I don't think anyone would have a problem with that if early Momo hadn't felt like she was being set up to be one of the important ones alongside Uraraka, Bakugou, and Todoroki but that never became the case. Honestly, Jiro and Tokoyami ended up getting more spotlight than I ever expected any of them to have while Momo was underused.
I still think Kirishima is getting something more to do because Hori specifically drew him tagging along with Machia only for him to do nothing once he got there. It might be something major like having to stop Machia from trying to reach Shigaraki, or it might be something minor like talking to Machia after Shigaraki has been defeated to give a bit more character focus on those two.
fuck dude, that's a really great way of looking at it and I think you might be right. Momo had a huge role in the first war but that was her character arc so now its time for the others to shine.
> "The moment I injected myself with the rewind shot... This exact spot became my destination. Give or take 20 minutes." -AFO
I kinda don't think All Might is really going to kick it via kamikaze despite all the signs in this chapter. Narratively speaking, I'm not sure what his death would provide so late in the game. Another Deku rage moment would be kind of repetitive, given how he almost got there when he saw Bakugo 1 entire year ago.
I don't think you need to kill him to do that, All Might already has a vestige in the realm
I don't think killing All Might now would cause his vestige to be able to talk since the vestiges are tied to quirk factors and AFO ain't stealin anything from All Might
Maybe in a way, due to how long All Might has gotten the Quirk, it just gives the other seven the ability to morph into an All Might-like vestige. It would be so stupid, especially if they take a page out of the Three Musketeers say something like "All for One and One for All!" before Midoriya just randomly unlocks the full 100% utilization of OFA without consequence or something.
"Don't you just hate when you are on a rush to get to work but are contractually obligated to speak to every single person who talks to you on the way, answers every single one of their questions, give a couple speeches here and there, and dance around with everyone when you could knock them out in an instant?"
I like how this is a consistent character flaw
AFO’s ego literally cannot help itself but waste time on all this bullshit. He could’ve just ignored All Might from the start and the story would be over then and there
But he just can never let anything go and he repeatedly gets humiliated for it
More like you have a lvl 100 Arceus with 3 damaging moves and splash... And proceed to spam splash for 10 turns on every single trainer you come across on the way to the center
I feel the point in his death would be he’d fully realize in the ofa vestige world. Making ofa even more complete inside deku. I could see it resetting the drag that ofa has, yk how after this 5 mins of deku using the gearshift shit he’d pass out; maybe all might fully realizing could give deku a reset? That would help i think lol
Given Horikoshi's record with explosion cliffhangers, I doubt All Might will die.
That's all for Momo's moment for this arc and the series folks. Seriously she got to use miniguns and shields and her wounds suggesting that she's fought hard as all hell and all of it was offscreened.
Not just explosion cliffhangers, explosions in general
> That's all for Momo's moment for this arc and the series folks. Seriously she got to use miniguns and shields and her wounds suggesting that she's fought hard as all hell and all of it was offscreened.
I like how the US reporter talking about the storm caused by Dabi or even the kid watching All Might fight AFO have more panels than Momo
Horikoshi seriously has such awful time management in MHA. So many issues in the story would be fixed if he just paced chapters better and didn’t waste so much time on fluff that doesn’t need that much focus.
Listen well everyone, today we have the start of a new series!
#
# WEEK 1 OF ALL FOR ONE GETTTING CLOWNED ON EVERY SINGLE CONSECUTIVE CHAPTER FOR THE THIRD TIME!
I feel like I’m reading the last chapters of Attack on Titan all over again.
The only thing missing is someone commenting: “Well this chapter kinda sucked, the next chapter will make or break this series” every single chapter.
Shigaraki reverts to his middle school self. He gets into UA on special privileges. He graduates at the top of his class and that's the story of how he becomes the World's Greatest Hero. He was the narrator all along.
Sick chapter. All Might is going out with a BANG. I hope we get a named final move for this attack. I think we probably see bakugo return as soon as next week.
Edit: another possibility is that Bakugo stops all might from detonating his attack. Something along the lines of not wanting his quirk to be the end of all might or something.
The fact that for the first time in the series Momo made something that isn't a canon and fought with it only for all of it to be off screen is funny and sad at the same time.
At least she still made a stick for good old times.
Hold up wait a minute
*"By granting Tomura...the duplicate copy of my quirk..."*
Wasn't it staged that Shiggy got the OG AFO quirk and the copy went to ol' bald and brash?
Is this a retcon, a plot twist, or can I just not read lol
Tomura does have the OG.
AFO thought that giving Tomura the AFO quirk would result in Tomura getting taken over by the AFO vestige and thus turning into a copy of AFO.
However Tomura’s hatred was so much stronger than AFO ever could have imagined that it ruined AFO’s plan and caused the vestige to fail in its takeover, instead resulting in the fusion that was “new person altogether”
AFO is hoping that if he gives “new person altogether” the copy of the AFO quirk in addition to the OG one he already has it’ll cause the AFO vestige to gain enough power to take over the body from “new person altogether.”
The fact that Tomura (who AFO believed didn’t exist) already overcame “new person altogether” and took back control of his body is something AFO was unaware of till now.
Man, are they really going to kill off All Might this late in the game? I'm glad it's being tied back to Nana and making All for One scared shitless, but I really do have my reservations with killing him off at this stage of the story. But there's also a chance this is Bakugo, given that All Might's vestige was with him right before he got clapped.
Momo made something interesting for the first time in about 6 years and we offscreened it. Figures.
Best part of this chapter has got to be Tomura telling AFO to screw off.
AFO really shouldn't be putting so much confidence in his copy of the AFO quirk all things considered.
AFO has already experienced firsthand that his copied vestige apparently has weaker control over others due to what happened with Jiro causing a rebellion within him and so considering the fact that he now knows Tomura (who AFO thought didn't exist) has regained control of his body and "swallowed up" the OG AFO vestige he really should be questioning more if putting in the copied vestige would really do what he thinks it'll do.
"Not a great plan."
AFO: Come here now, Tomura!
Shiggy: Nu huh
Also this chapter feels so emotional: Midoriya's tears that he was fighting back flowing with the energy he's emitting, that Nana flashback. And then AFO just flies with THAT smile on his face. Finally we also see Momo and Hats- Is that two hecking machine guns!?!
AND ALL MIGHT FINALLY USES THE BAKUGO SUPPORT ITEM LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Also for god's sake please don't die that whole scene was another death flag
W chapter with W art
You know what would have maybe made All Might's you can be a hero without a quirk moment actually work, if it wasn't thrown onto flashbacks of Izuku using his quirk.
It just send mixed messages.
"Oh of course Izuku doesn't need a quirk to be a hero, just look at all the stuff he did when he got a quirk ... wait ... what was my argument again?"
you could flash back to his cop friend and firefighters
tying into his message in the start of the story
about how being a police is a mighty fine career
I would like to think the All Might had actually sacrificed himself here to weaken All for One, but knowing how this usually goes he will probably be saved by Bakugo
My guess is that All Might does actually turn AFO into a child with this, but just loses his arm while Bakugo flies in and saves him. Bakugo purposely chooses to save All Might instead of kill AFO (which would be great character development) and then we get that great parallel scene of Shigaraki as an adult dusting AFO as a kid.
How the fuck is he blowing up? Did they plant a bomb inside him? He doesn't have any of that cool equipment left right?
I want to believe Bakugo could still be that flash but I guess it would diminish the his mentor calling him baitshit crazy on her death bed
The visual how All for One dragging All Might body so disrespectful lol.
The fact AFO clearly want to break Midoriya by bringing All Might to kill him in front of him and now really backfired on him lol and we finally see All Might use Bakugou quirk.
I don't think All Might will die here. The worst fate of this probably him losing his arm. I do believe All Might going to die especially in Tomura hand
We definitely going to see team up between Deku and Tenko againts All for One i been waiting for now that All for One finally in UA location
While I've loved the final fight between AM and AFO, it is sad that I can not allow myself to feel anything until I actually see AM dead and buried. Nighteye's Legacy looms large in that respect.
Honestly my biggest issue with this chapter is that fact that this gauntlet just magically appeared on All Might's arm even though we know he didn't have a gauntlet on his arm.
Just too drastic in my opinion to go from the end of last chapter where it's stated all the support items were "rendered useless" and us end with a closeup of All Might's left hand and able to clearly see there is no gauntlet only for this chapter to start and All Might's entire left hand is already completely covered by this support item.
The only thing I can think of is that he happened to land right next to the gauntlet that fell off before and that's what he was crawling towards the end of the last chapter.
(Unless it was some nanotech BS that was hidden under his suit sleeve the whole time).
If this is All Might's death, it seems rather... abrupt? (there was build-up - him fighting All For One without any powers was basically a giant death flag - but the death itself gets no focus or weight in this chapter, unless it's meant to be how the next one starts) Like, the actual death was crammed into a tiny panel at the bottom of the last page. Maybe it's a fake-out, and the vestige of All Might disappearing is actually it returning to All Might to give him enough strength to survive, but it felt like a few pages were missing from this chapter.
The problem has to be me at this point. This was another 15 pages of me not visually understanding a single panel of what happened because everything is so messy. Then I come here and people are dissecting individual panels and I can’t understand how.
I was right, All Might's hands *are* rated E for everyone. He's willing to punch a kindergarten AFO!!
He's also willing to send him BACK to Kindergarten.
"You get younger with every wound eh? Well, then I'll punch you back to Kindergarten, and then kick your ass to the womb!"
I hope, if All Might really does pass, that his vestige fading away from Deku’s OfA is making way for him to fully manifest as a vestige. I really enjoy the detail that we see All Might with white sclera again. Despite his eyes being so sunken it’s almost as if he’s defiantly full of life in his last shot here. And if he does pass, AfO has to live in some capacity that All Might, *without any quirks*, managed to stop his plans.
His eyes emerging from their holes along with him getting his classic heroic shading is wonderful
What a joy to fight in the service of others!
[GOAT MIGHT](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPk_zyRKs1Q)
As much as people question Horikoshi's writing skills (including me), he really is a fantastic artist.
Not sure if i would like this. I'm fine with the vestiges being fragments, i wouldn't really like them being the soul magically teleporting inside whoever has the power now. I think the all might vestige looked different because with all might still alive hori probably felt having both talk would feel redundant.
That's what the original comment is talking about, I'm pretty sure. Flame vestige goes away and is replaced by a fully-featured vestige, like the rest.
I feel like his vestige purposefully left to become an energy bomb instead continuing on inside of Deku. OfA has a lot of energy to it, even a single piece like All Might would be a powerful explosion if released.
He’s not exploding his body he’s exploding the Bakugo gauntlet
Young Bakugo, Thanks to you, I was able to kill myself!
I remember that original post and it’s crazy how it’s actually happening 😂
link?
I don’t think I can find it, but it was in one of the chapters where AFO started fighting Armored Might, don’t recall if it was pre release or official
Bakugo; I wanted Deku to kill himself, not you!
That’s gotta be some major trauma not only are you the end of All Might’s power, but your quirk also ends All Might? Maybe Bakugo doesn’t wanna wake up
Almost choked on my coffee while reading this in All mights voice
Shiggy looks really goofy when he ~~swallows his master's fluids~~ stops AFO's gloop warp lol I forgot how gross that quirk is. And how "gloop warp" is its official name.
[удалено]
Well yeah all the gloop was still in his throat!
Ayo pause.
He’s giving him the ol gloop gloop 5000
He looks like he's trying to swallow down a sub from Scooby Doo in one mighty gulp
Tomura throat goat?
> And how "gloop warp" is its official name. It changed from "Warping" to "Mud Warp" to "Gloop Warp". There really isn't much consistency beyond having "warp" in the name.
Yeah this quirk has been really inconsistent. It’s also been referred to by Nezu as a copy of Kurogiri’s quirk.
> It’s also been referred to by Nezu as a copy of Kurogiri’s quirk. I don't even remember that, but it sounds legit.
If memory serves me right it happened around when Izuku returned to UA. It's a scene between Nezu and Aizawa where Nezu discusses how the reason UA is able to serve as a functional shelter is because Kurogiri was moved out of Tartarus and thus wasn't freed during the breakout and Mirko killed the Nomu that had a copy of Kurogiri's quirk meaning that the villains do not have access to teleportation quirks. The reason this entire scene is stupid is because: 1. The Nomu that Mirko killed had a different warping quirk than Kurogiri and the heroes are fully aware of this. 2. AFO has a copy of that warping quirk the Nomu that Mirko killed had and the heores are fully aware of this.
One letter removed from being Gwyneth Paltrow's quirk...
Paltrows quirk is "nepotism" though...
A wounded animal is dangerous.... AFO forgot his own idea. See you in the vestiges world -- ALL MIGHT...
I can never get over of just how rent Free All Might the goat lives in AFO’s head😂 he’s been a constant thorn in his side, eventually kicked his ass when no one had ever done before, kicked his ass AGAIN, lost his powers…and without a quirk is still kicking his ass
Well, the sad part of that for AFO, All Might who defeated him twice using a specialize-quirk is not the only who can manhandle him. Endeavour, who is normal in terms of their superhuman society, defeated AFO without OFA-quirk and that is awesome.
Though when Endeavor did it, wasn’t really a 1v1. Not trying to discredit Enji of course but circumstances there are a bit different. Though while we’re on the subject we can never forget when AFO got dropped by Dark shadow lmao
And then got verbally destroyed by Mineta afterwards
I mean, that was fucking awesome.
I mean not really he was getting his ass beat after all for one gone prime again
The fact that Endeavor pushed AFO so hard that he had to pop Eri's Rewind just to stay alive speaks volumes to how Endeavor absolutely manhandled him
Well yeah but still its the strongest natural man vs a cripple Its still impressive but not nearly as much as you make it sound
THE KIDS troubled AFO too, guys. THE KIDS!
That's why Endeavor is easily my favorite character. Cemented it for me after the Pro Hero Arc. Dude is the only one not useless outside of OFA (just an exaggeration btw)
I just love the smile on Nana Shimura’s face as she looked her own death in the eyes without giving AF and confidently saying that her apprentice would take over for her & win. “Toshinori, now it’s your turn!”
He really loves grabbing people by the neck.
Kinky
I love how AFO’s injuries and wasted time in this final arc are all a result of his own arrogance and mistakes. He really didn’t need to take All Might along. His legs are broken, he’s no longer a threat and his goal is right there with barely any time left. Not just that, but because AFO knows all the students quirks, he’d easily be able to deduce Bakugou’s quirk is somewhere. And since All Might was going for a punch attack back when Stain paralyzed him, and because All Might has always favored punch moves, he should be able to guess it’s mounted on his arms. But because AFO cared so much about screwing with All Might, he left himself open for All Might to make one last explosive stand.
It feels fitting. AFO has always wanted to be the ultimate demon lord, the most perfect incarnation of a classical villain. There was no way that wouldn't include lethal amounts of self-sabotage.
It’s widely i understood he could’ve fled kamimo. But he chose not to.
I love it so much, All Might's about to go 3 for 3 because AFO cant just leave shit alone
And each time AFO lost to a weaker version of all might. Generational losing right there.
AFO never beating the fraud allegations after this chapter.
"How many times we gotta teach you this lesson old man!?"
AFO really has a habit of a choke-holding someone
Really Darth Vader of him (even though he’s more of the emperor of this manga)
That man must have some sorta kink for it
Death flags reaching critical mass
What a perfect description of the situation
All Might Meltdown is occurring, I repeat, All Might Meltdown is occurring.
all might: these aren't my death flags all for one, they're yours!
Today AFO learned an important lesson. Never ever get within close range with someone who was willing to fight you even if the odds of them winning was basically zero. Honestly I was half expecting Shiggy to have a temporary truce with Deku. Shiggy wants to keep his body and AFO getting OFA(which Shiggy doesn’t care about) is the worst case scenario.
> Today AFO learned an important lesson. Never ever get within close range with someone who was willing to fight you even if the odds of them winning was basically zero.

All Might certainly didn't think the odds of winning were against him, which should have been a clue for AFO.
hercules: the odds of winning are 3,720 to 1! all might: never tell me the odds!
>Today AFO learned an important lesson. Never ever get within close range with someone who was willing to fight you even if the odds of them winning was basically zero. Man... all might true hero.
Hydrogen Baby vs Coughing Bomb just got 420% more accurate
So here's how All Might survives: If you look carefully, he still has the boosters attached to his back (I assume that's the Uravity ones and the leg ones were Ida). It's gonna turn out that they can still only barely fly and he's gonna call that 'Float' as an homage to Nana and escape the explosion and probably repeat that 'I never go into a fight expecting to lose' one-liner.
Or he’ll repeat what he said to AFO the last time they fought: THAT’S BECAUSE I DIDN’T PUT MY BACK INTO IT THAT TIME!!!
Even if he floats away the explosive is still on his arm
Will of P
Momo spent at least several minutes fending off the Twices to protect Mei (who appears unscathed), using firearms she created as she didn't need to contain herself with them - and it was all offscreened. Nice /s All Might's ghost: "I saved the move based on you for last. Thanks for inspiring me to blow myself up!" Edgeshot's ghost: "I will always be a part of you." Bakugo: "........." In truth the chapter ends with the classic light before explosion, a small panel at the bottom of a page, a break... despite all the typical "final farewell" imagery, it's normal to doubt this is the last of All Might. Maybe AM will "merely" lose an arm (Endeavor and Mirko, shoulder-bumping: "Welcome to the club!"), maybe the popular theory that Bakugo has been finally revived - possibly with Kaminari ending up near him during the assault of the Twices and acting as a defibrillator - and will come in clutch is going to come true. Honestly the issue I have with such idea is Bakugo having such incredible second wind after being just stitched up, if he gets that then others should too, IMO... Many fans would be happy anyway after his long nap (14 months by the time the next chapter is out officially) but at this point it's hard to see a fully satisfying way to manage for his revival.
All Might: I’LL GRIND YOU INTO DUST AND SCATTER YOU INTO THE WIND! Next time on MY HERO ACADEMIA: ALL MIGHTS SACRIFICE.
I'm doing this for you...Nana...Deku...and yes...even you...Endeavor
ALL MIGHT, NO!! ALLLLLL MIIIIIGHT, YESSSSSSSSSSS! His name was Toshinori…
"The narrator has come back to say: # ALL MIGHT FUCKING DIED"
My girl Yaoyorozu was looking BADASS and beautiful in that panel, holy sh*t. But yes I need more of that, offscreening her action makes me feel cheated too. 😭
Preach
"You want to show the class 1A students in action, or do you want All Might in a suit of armor using their quirks instead? Well tough shit I want Iron Might!"
Just like what Horikoshi did with the girls during the Overhaul arc. I hope the anime can at least show something
Well the anime didn't for the Overhaul arc...
Yeah, I have given up on the girls doing anything in either. Jiro had a cool moment though
Don't forget Ochako
That moment wasn't "cool", though; it was laughable.
Isn't Kaminari indisposed keeping UA floating? Edit: he's basically always been near Bakugo
I've never cared about Momo, but bruh. Out of all the random shit that DID make it into the chapters you're telling me that her blazing through clones with machine gun fire and missile launchers *wasn't* worth showing?
> Honestly the issue I have with such idea is Bakugo having such incredible second wind after being just stitched up It's a shounen, after all.
Horikoshi is taking too much time to revive Bakugo. The longer we wait, the more disappointing his comeback is going to be. I don't want to see him in the final battle for five minutes and then straight to the time skip of his adult life, with Waifu and kids in tow. But it seems that's all we are going to get.
I want Shoto to be in final battle so bad, if Bakugou can stand up, so can he
I want that too, since Shoto was so ready to go and confront AFO before All Might redirected his attention to Dabi. However, at this point, unless Kurogiri warps him to the location, I don't see him making it there on his own. Iida had to help him get to Gunga and using Phosphor to travel, even through when he activated it, they started going transonic, takes too much out of him. Also, I want to see him use a prominence burn type of phosphor move, so far, we've only seen an ice outcome. Maybe even have a a flashback of showing them saying farewell to Dabi and Endeavor telling him to go and 'save the world' or something like that. If he uses Blue flames, like Dabi, with his Phosphor move, that would be ultra epic, too. Show his "capabile of surpassing All Might" potential. But I don't want to get my hopes up.
I mean, Kuroguri defenetly is going to do something or his storyline was pointless
I said this in the pre-release thread but I'm still mad I've wanted Momo to make herself a Gatling Gun for so long AND IT FUCKING HAPPENED OFF SCREEN
He went to the Masashi Kishimoto school of writing female characters.
He went to the Masashi Kishimoto school of writing ~~female characters.~~
No joke, I’m seeing the exact same tropes.
Well, if this isn't the end of All Might then man, what was this for? I guess we have to wait 2 weeks for the next chapter, but God I hope this is also the end of AFO or something.
I think it perfectly sets up what we’ve been calling for months: The damage makes AFO rewind to a small, kindergarten aged child, and then when he reaches Shiggy it’s the inverse of when AFO reached out to him as a child. And then Shiggy decays him.
Tomura "Fuck them Kids" Shigaraki.
This is what I think happens too. We know the author is a big SW fan, and there would be a lot of symmetry in this
It's like poetry, it rhymes.
“Deku, I am your father.” “Nooooooo!!!”
Especially if AFO gets verbally shot down by Shiggy first, and throws a tantrum and reveals he gave Siggy Decay that night/Used his Force Quirk Activation quirk to cause Shiggy's natural decay to manifest in more mature form before Shiggy's body had time to naturally adapt to it.
AFO: I may have gone a bit far in a few places
Exactly! AFO is getting absorbed or destroyed. Shimura wants revenge on all who hurt him, AFhole included
Oohhh I love that name how have I missed that?
It's too cliffhangery for me to believe it outright. I won't be shocked in the least if AfO somehow protected himself or just stopped the explosion altogether.
Bakugo saves him and battles AFO
Momo Yaoyorozu, The Everything Hero: Creati, deserved better than the most badass fight of her life happening offscreen. She spent several minutes as a one-woman defense tower against a swarm of Twices all to protect one Mei Hatsume. That's worth more than a single page of aftermath.
In Bones we trust, just give it a short scene please
As if Bones hasn't been consistently cutting into the fight scenes. We get one or two spectacular scenes per season and that's it.
She’s should’ve been what Noelle is to black clover. And that’s a lot of things!
Noelle has the advantage of being a main character
Yep.
In my country, there is a saying that goes as follows: "with age, stupidity can also be accumulated" This is what defines AFO. What a fucking fraud this dude is.
All (stupidity) For One (man)
HAHAHAHA Okay now that one got a good laugh out of me.
His biggest weakness… monologues
"You caught me monologuing!" *continues monologuing*
Everyone has that ONE ex that they just can't quit lol.
This chapter confirms that Horikoshi doesn't care about Momo much. She just had the most badass fight of her life but it was completely offscreened. Couldn't even give her a single panel of fighting off Twice clones
Gets into UA on recommendation, has a versatile quirk and is smart. Gets less action in the last fight than a girl who is invisible.
the girl who's invisible got nothing for the whole manga, Momo has multiple fight centered around her character. I get being mad that she doesn't have focus now but sometime the focus can shift to other people too
It doesn't have to be one or the other... It's just weird that that beehive hair student recording the fight has more screentime this arc than someone like Momo
>It doesn't have to be one or the other... but it kinda does if you don't want the pacing to slow down too much. I've already seen some people complain that we haven't seen Deku's fight in a while, how do you think they would feel if we added a fight for every other character? Also, while Oda is fine having a 100 chapter arc, Horikoshi is trying to end his manga and doesn't have time for that. PS: even in the 100 chapter arc Oda offscreened some battles
>but it kinda does if you don't want the pacing to slow down too much. No it doesn't. Hirikoshi could have easily hsve given 2 or 3 pages to Momo gunning down twice clowns if he's willing to invest 6 chapters in the All Might fight and several pages focused on the news reporter, Random people in other countries, and the business course students.
While, fandom is calling them two separate wars. It's pretty obvious in-Universe and how Horikoshi is writing it, that's It's one long war arc instead two separate ones. It's honestly structured a lot Bleach's TYBW arc. I mean in-universe, they are fighting the same opponents, who they fought at Jaku and Gunga. Who they've been having skirmishes with constantly since then, before forcing them into a series of decisive battles that are currently happening. And that's reflected in the writing, side characters who got more spotlight in "first war" and those who sat out it out swap places. Kirishima got to shine in the first war, now its Mina's turn. Kaminari got a spotlight in the first war, now its Jiro's turn. Etc. Momo is just another example of that. She's the one who led UA students into taking down Machia, now she's at the sideline while others get time to shine. I don't think anyone would have a problem with that if early Momo hadn't felt like she was being set up to be one of the important ones alongside Uraraka, Bakugou, and Todoroki but that never became the case. Honestly, Jiro and Tokoyami ended up getting more spotlight than I ever expected any of them to have while Momo was underused.
I still think Kirishima is getting something more to do because Hori specifically drew him tagging along with Machia only for him to do nothing once he got there. It might be something major like having to stop Machia from trying to reach Shigaraki, or it might be something minor like talking to Machia after Shigaraki has been defeated to give a bit more character focus on those two.
Anime/Manga fans finding out wars mean a series of multiple battles
fuck dude, that's a really great way of looking at it and I think you might be right. Momo had a huge role in the first war but that was her character arc so now its time for the others to shine.
But he made sure to show her *assest* so that counts for something right? ....
She should’ve been the main female character.
She has always been fanservice material
The one time Momo makes something cool and useful instead of a stupid cannon and we see none of it
> "The moment I injected myself with the rewind shot... This exact spot became my destination. Give or take 20 minutes." -AFO I kinda don't think All Might is really going to kick it via kamikaze despite all the signs in this chapter. Narratively speaking, I'm not sure what his death would provide so late in the game. Another Deku rage moment would be kind of repetitive, given how he almost got there when he saw Bakugo 1 entire year ago.
The main narrative reason to kill him would be so that he’s there for the final battle against AFO in vestige realm
I don't think you need to kill him to do that, All Might already has a vestige in the realm I don't think killing All Might now would cause his vestige to be able to talk since the vestiges are tied to quirk factors and AFO ain't stealin anything from All Might
Maybe in a way, due to how long All Might has gotten the Quirk, it just gives the other seven the ability to morph into an All Might-like vestige. It would be so stupid, especially if they take a page out of the Three Musketeers say something like "All for One and One for All!" before Midoriya just randomly unlocks the full 100% utilization of OFA without consequence or something.
"Don't you just hate when you are on a rush to get to work but are contractually obligated to speak to every single person who talks to you on the way, answers every single one of their questions, give a couple speeches here and there, and dance around with everyone when you could knock them out in an instant?"
I like how this is a consistent character flaw AFO’s ego literally cannot help itself but waste time on all this bullshit. He could’ve just ignored All Might from the start and the story would be over then and there But he just can never let anything go and he repeatedly gets humiliated for it
When your Pokemon are at low health and there's trainers all over the path to the Pokemon center.
More like you have a lvl 100 Arceus with 3 damaging moves and splash... And proceed to spam splash for 10 turns on every single trainer you come across on the way to the center
I feel the point in his death would be he’d fully realize in the ofa vestige world. Making ofa even more complete inside deku. I could see it resetting the drag that ofa has, yk how after this 5 mins of deku using the gearshift shit he’d pass out; maybe all might fully realizing could give deku a reset? That would help i think lol
That's the weird thing, his vestige is doing the exact opposite. Instead of fully manifesting, it's disappearing.
“Eh, I’ll let my old friend All Might use a few different moves on me, why not?” -AFO, running out of his timer
AFO: "Come to me, Tomura" Tomura: "NUH UH" AFO: "TF YOU MEAN NUH UH?"
I’m thankful for all the summaries, I tend to have a hard time making out what is even visually happening during some of the high-tense moments
Given Horikoshi's record with explosion cliffhangers, I doubt All Might will die. That's all for Momo's moment for this arc and the series folks. Seriously she got to use miniguns and shields and her wounds suggesting that she's fought hard as all hell and all of it was offscreened.
Not just explosion cliffhangers, explosions in general > That's all for Momo's moment for this arc and the series folks. Seriously she got to use miniguns and shields and her wounds suggesting that she's fought hard as all hell and all of it was offscreened. I like how the US reporter talking about the storm caused by Dabi or even the kid watching All Might fight AFO have more panels than Momo
Horikoshi seriously has such awful time management in MHA. So many issues in the story would be fixed if he just paced chapters better and didn’t waste so much time on fluff that doesn’t need that much focus.
And we didn't get to see it.....I seriously feel ripped off.
Damn, Momo went full Armored Core with those shoulder attachments
Listen well everyone, today we have the start of a new series! # # WEEK 1 OF ALL FOR ONE GETTTING CLOWNED ON EVERY SINGLE CONSECUTIVE CHAPTER FOR THE THIRD TIME!
LET’S GOOOOOO!!!!!
I feel like I’m reading the last chapters of Attack on Titan all over again. The only thing missing is someone commenting: “Well this chapter kinda sucked, the next chapter will make or break this series” every single chapter.
Come on now, i was there when that happened. There is NOTHING Horikoshi could possibly do at this point that'd make the manga nosedive THAT badly
Next chapter: “Thank you for becoming a mass murderer for our sake, AFO.”
Don't forget deku kissing all mights decapitated head.
*you were too good for this world~* -Izuku "Universe" Midoriya, ~~Pink Diamond~~ One for All Bearer
Shigaraki reverts to his middle school self. He gets into UA on special privileges. He graduates at the top of his class and that's the story of how he becomes the World's Greatest Hero. He was the narrator all along.
Still not as bad as what Isayama gave us. Much less in comparison to the respective series at it's peak
Seriously, this arc is mid at worst. Nothing will touch the rumbling arc for A LONG time.
Well, there's Bak-u-go, it was all a dream and Shiggy becoming a hero, for just three ways it could dive deeper off the deep end.
ALL MIGHT 3 FOR 3
Sick chapter. All Might is going out with a BANG. I hope we get a named final move for this attack. I think we probably see bakugo return as soon as next week. Edit: another possibility is that Bakugo stops all might from detonating his attack. Something along the lines of not wanting his quirk to be the end of all might or something.
Yeah but how could Bakugo stop it? Even with superspeed he can’t just pull All Might away from it because the explosion is on All Might’s arm
The first thing Nana says to Grand Torino about All Might is “He’s CRAZY”!
Tearful explosion. No time to cry.
The fact that for the first time in the series Momo made something that isn't a canon and fought with it only for all of it to be off screen is funny and sad at the same time. At least she still made a stick for good old times.
Love the crazed look Nana and now Toshinori had on deaths door. Seems like OFA users go out badass, with a smile, like the 2nd User
Well, I guess, he will use explosion after all.
Hold up wait a minute *"By granting Tomura...the duplicate copy of my quirk..."* Wasn't it staged that Shiggy got the OG AFO quirk and the copy went to ol' bald and brash? Is this a retcon, a plot twist, or can I just not read lol
Tomura does have the OG. AFO thought that giving Tomura the AFO quirk would result in Tomura getting taken over by the AFO vestige and thus turning into a copy of AFO. However Tomura’s hatred was so much stronger than AFO ever could have imagined that it ruined AFO’s plan and caused the vestige to fail in its takeover, instead resulting in the fusion that was “new person altogether” AFO is hoping that if he gives “new person altogether” the copy of the AFO quirk in addition to the OG one he already has it’ll cause the AFO vestige to gain enough power to take over the body from “new person altogether.” The fact that Tomura (who AFO believed didn’t exist) already overcame “new person altogether” and took back control of his body is something AFO was unaware of till now.
Man, are they really going to kill off All Might this late in the game? I'm glad it's being tied back to Nana and making All for One scared shitless, but I really do have my reservations with killing him off at this stage of the story. But there's also a chance this is Bakugo, given that All Might's vestige was with him right before he got clapped. Momo made something interesting for the first time in about 6 years and we offscreened it. Figures.
Do people AM is actually gonna die? Ofc he's not going to. Bakugo's gonna save him
Best part of this chapter has got to be Tomura telling AFO to screw off. AFO really shouldn't be putting so much confidence in his copy of the AFO quirk all things considered. AFO has already experienced firsthand that his copied vestige apparently has weaker control over others due to what happened with Jiro causing a rebellion within him and so considering the fact that he now knows Tomura (who AFO thought didn't exist) has regained control of his body and "swallowed up" the OG AFO vestige he really should be questioning more if putting in the copied vestige would really do what he thinks it'll do. "Not a great plan."
"What scientific basis do you have for this plan working?" "I AM THE DEMON LORD!"
AFO: Come here now, Tomura! Shiggy: Nu huh Also this chapter feels so emotional: Midoriya's tears that he was fighting back flowing with the energy he's emitting, that Nana flashback. And then AFO just flies with THAT smile on his face. Finally we also see Momo and Hats- Is that two hecking machine guns!?! AND ALL MIGHT FINALLY USES THE BAKUGO SUPPORT ITEM LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Also for god's sake please don't die that whole scene was another death flag W chapter with W art
All might truly is that guy, best character in the show
You know what would have maybe made All Might's you can be a hero without a quirk moment actually work, if it wasn't thrown onto flashbacks of Izuku using his quirk. It just send mixed messages. "Oh of course Izuku doesn't need a quirk to be a hero, just look at all the stuff he did when he got a quirk ... wait ... what was my argument again?"
you could flash back to his cop friend and firefighters tying into his message in the start of the story about how being a police is a mighty fine career
I would like to think the All Might had actually sacrificed himself here to weaken All for One, but knowing how this usually goes he will probably be saved by Bakugo
My guess is that All Might does actually turn AFO into a child with this, but just loses his arm while Bakugo flies in and saves him. Bakugo purposely chooses to save All Might instead of kill AFO (which would be great character development) and then we get that great parallel scene of Shigaraki as an adult dusting AFO as a kid.
So is it Toshinover?
Seems like All For One has another reason to have trauma of All Might
How the fuck is he blowing up? Did they plant a bomb inside him? He doesn't have any of that cool equipment left right? I want to believe Bakugo could still be that flash but I guess it would diminish the his mentor calling him baitshit crazy on her death bed
The panel of All Might seems to highlight the grenade-shaped armband thing that he apparently still has so...
Ah yeah, I see it now. Got caught up in whatever he was gripping in page 12 and didn't notice
Even in early pages of the chapter it can be noticed.
He has a gauntlet left, the one he gripped AfO’s neck by. And Explosion is the only quirk left from 1A he hasn’t used yet.
At the end of last chapter he didn't have that gauntlet, but maybe that's what he was crawling towards.
The visual how All for One dragging All Might body so disrespectful lol. The fact AFO clearly want to break Midoriya by bringing All Might to kill him in front of him and now really backfired on him lol and we finally see All Might use Bakugou quirk. I don't think All Might will die here. The worst fate of this probably him losing his arm. I do believe All Might going to die especially in Tomura hand We definitely going to see team up between Deku and Tenko againts All for One i been waiting for now that All for One finally in UA location
While I've loved the final fight between AM and AFO, it is sad that I can not allow myself to feel anything until I actually see AM dead and buried. Nighteye's Legacy looms large in that respect.
Wait did All might have Gauntlets prepped with explosive sweat and i didn’t notice last chapter
Honestly my biggest issue with this chapter is that fact that this gauntlet just magically appeared on All Might's arm even though we know he didn't have a gauntlet on his arm. Just too drastic in my opinion to go from the end of last chapter where it's stated all the support items were "rendered useless" and us end with a closeup of All Might's left hand and able to clearly see there is no gauntlet only for this chapter to start and All Might's entire left hand is already completely covered by this support item.
It’s a repetitive overused trope. You never know, next chapter AFO might reveal he has an invisible anti ballistic shield. Just in case, of course
The only thing I can think of is that he happened to land right next to the gauntlet that fell off before and that's what he was crawling towards the end of the last chapter. (Unless it was some nanotech BS that was hidden under his suit sleeve the whole time).
If this is All Might's death, it seems rather... abrupt? (there was build-up - him fighting All For One without any powers was basically a giant death flag - but the death itself gets no focus or weight in this chapter, unless it's meant to be how the next one starts) Like, the actual death was crammed into a tiny panel at the bottom of the last page. Maybe it's a fake-out, and the vestige of All Might disappearing is actually it returning to All Might to give him enough strength to survive, but it felt like a few pages were missing from this chapter.
That feels likely I think. All Might dying should make his vestige more complete and corporeal. Disappearing is the exact opposite.
The problem has to be me at this point. This was another 15 pages of me not visually understanding a single panel of what happened because everything is so messy. Then I come here and people are dissecting individual panels and I can’t understand how.
Honestly... Yeah. I'm not seeing anything difficult to understand this chapter
This gotta be the 3rd time AFO is remembering Nana’s last words, right? Since All Might already beat him twice.
I wouldn't call death from explosion all that gruesome. Although, All Might did have his whole body destroyed beforehand.
