Bro what the fuck is this lmao. How oddWe know. Calling them "punch lasers" is a Cyclops meme.
According to Google it took 4 seasons to reveal that Spader's character Raymond is her father. Except then they apparently start another mystery where apparently Spader is an imposter, his real name is Ilya Koslov, who was friends with the real Raymond, who is actually dead.
THEN apparently later seasons call that too into doubt on whether that was actually the truth.
So in conclusion, blood/DNA test proves that Raymond Reddington is in fact her father. But now the issue is that no one seems to know whether or not that is who Spader's character actually is.
So nothing really seems to have changed much, 7 seasons in.... God this show is ass.

That's not dumb honestly his eyes are just energy blasts it's like how Iron man hand blasts is also concussive unless writers forget
No the reason for the dumb meme is because cyclops power comes from a fucking dimension that's filled with red energy that punches and hus eyes are portals
Originally he just has just has eyebeams no explanation need because who cares then writers keep ovrcomplicating it first he just absorbs sunlit them portals to explain why he has so much energy and why his neck doesn't snap
Its so stupid
huh. So his eyes open up to that dimension and the energy comes through them? That is something alright.
Were Twice or Toga ever told about it
Thinking about it i don't think they knew it was eri but maybe it's my memory
They know she has some important quirk that can be used to create those bullets, but I doubt they know the true nature of her abilities.
Touya theory isn't a theory, it's true, we're just waiting for it to be revealed
Didn't they plan to give it to the doctor
Maybe they're just saving it until the doctor figures out how to make more
They are definitely not coming back to school after this. Shigaraki will destroy half the city and establish the liberation army nation right there.
This is exciting, i wonder how ballsy can Hori be with what's gonna happen now. Imagine the possibilities.
I think Nana is the one giving him that message and he understood who she was referring too.
AfO being all TO ME, SHIGARAKI is a very strong Prof. Xavier vibe. I love it.
I love this whole arc, frankly, MHA firing on all cylinders is a delight, between the writing and the art. Heroes are turbofucked. And the reversal of the usual imagery in the Shiggy mindscape sequence - the villain's family trying to hold him back - is so clever.
I wonder what that bit where he forgives his sister is meant to convey? He still hates his father, clearly, but the other family members are portrayed a little differently than in MVA.

Gotta love the punch dimensionWe know. Calling them "punch lasers" is a Cyclops meme.
Soundtrack for next week
Having the duplication quirk is kinda broken, though. Hope him waking up at 75% means that Shiggy won't have it.
Maybe to Spinner. The others already have strong Quirks, and most people can't handle having more than one (they become Nomu).
Heroes supposedly have a "don't kill" rule. It's why Hawks being a pseudo assassin is a big deal story wise.
Nomu don't really count since they're corpses. Despite that, X-Less going around shooting holes in corpses to "make sure they're dead" doesn't sound very hero like.
I mean high-key they should've made an exception here, but I'm not gonna get genuinely upset that heroes aren't about that life generally speaking
I'm all against the "you'll be just as bad as they are" and "heroes don't kill no matter what" nonsense in superhero stories (I was fine with Superman offing Zodd in MoS for example).
That being said, it's been established that's how heroes work at least in Japan in this story. Endeavor told the main trio this during the internship, and we saw people like All Might not off AfO despite that clearly being the best thing to do to him. It's also why Hawks just offing Twice should be a big deal.
I'm sure heroes will kill if there's no other choice in the matter, but I don't blame X-Less for not double tapping Shiggy. Shiggy's heart had stopped. There was no reason not to believe he wasn't dead.

It's one of those things nerds mistake for a plot hole but really isn't. They thought he was dead, yeah? And nothing in his training or background would have "double tap the corpse to be sure" be something he'd ever think of doing unprompted. If he thought he was alive, that'd still be a wild ass thing for him to do. They thought he was comatose (because he was). Just executing the guy might have been the "right" call, but it'd never have been the obvious one, considering the setting.
It also feels like heroes not killing villans has been shown to be a pretty big weakness, or at least the bad guys think it's pretty dumb.
Nah looks like Jump still should be coming regularly next.
It's pretty clear there is some rule about heroes not being able to kill villains. It's not "heroic" which fits into the heroes within the society being hyper idealized versions of heroes and that being their biggest flaw. It's also why believing that a hero will handle any unfortunate situation is a big point of contention among the villains of the story and is a big basis of the MLA's ideation, as they think it's up to themselves to take up arms as individuals. It also folds well into Shigaraki's backstory which is why I really like the league merger into the PLF. Honestly, I really like this aspect of MHA. The downsides of the hyper idealistic nature of a heroic society is really interesting but I know that Hori could mess it up in the end, but I'm enjoying the ride a lot.
Edit: Also I should say that my concern over how Hori will write the ending has less to do with my opinions of his writing skill and more to do with how I don't see how this predicament has a conclusion. During the MLA arc I thought the solution was quirk erasure but that clearly isn't' happening.

100%. As much as I like Deku, he's actually done nothing so far to prove that he would have been a better choice than pretty much anyone else. Least of all being Mirio.
Honestly, Deku probably fought smarter when he wasn't using OFA much.
Telling All Might that he should have given his quirk to Mirio is like telling Mirio he shouldn't have taken the bullet for Eri. They're gonna do what they feel is right.
Also it's pretty clear Deku being quirkless in a society that lets people be very successful if they have a good quirk is clearly leading to Deku creating a world where everyone can be happy. Half of the villains are villains due to the society at hand or their own quirks. Mirio having OfA only serves to suppress the weak who were born that way and boost the strong. It's a problem I have with Deku vs Gentle where you could twist it into the privileged beating down the less privileged, though of course this is avoided because Deku has a different perspective on the matter once being quirkless himself. All Might was right in giving his quirk to Deku.
And while I'm drunk and delivering hot takes, Deku was right to want to save Eri when he first encountered her. Eri needed saving then, just like Tenko needed saving when everyone ignored him, and only Deku saw it while Mirio was complacent to conform to the standards of a flawed society. And like it's weird because this is why All Might chose Deku, because he steps into situations where a hero is needed when when the society cannot provide said hero. We see it in the encounter with Overhaul and Eri here. And yes I know, "but if they got Eri then the yakuza could have disappeared when they were so close to taking them down". Issue is the narrative makes it clear Eri is the central point of their plan. If Deku had saved her then everything would have gone to shit for the Yakuza. Overhaul would have had no plan.
