Given how good the manga is and how they're doing this show (IE in spread out cours, vs the infinite airing ala One Piece/Naruto/etc), can easily see season after season being pumped out until the series ends, and I'm all for it. No filler and just fantastic animation
    One can only hope. The manga is still decently far ahead of the anime. I was reading it for a while (I stopped shortly after this arc) cause I want to be surprised.

    They can also easily integrate a Villains arc in there from the spinoff. I really hope they do.

    Shigiraki is OP as fuck. Can disintegrate anything he touches and in-turn whatever is touching what he's touching, plus whatever that's touching and so on and so forth. And now he has AFO and all the absurd powers that were already stolen by that.

    Outside of Eraser Head freezing his powers (which we all know is gonna be countered someway, if not outright stolen by Shigiraki), I genuinely have no idea how Deku or the other heroes get out of this. Unless one of the new previous OFA owner's powers gives Deku an advantage or he himself isn't actually quirkless and has some OP anti-power power like whatshisface's right arm in Index.


    Edit: And the students are all still in their first year of highschool too aren't they?

    Yes. A bunch of teenagers will literally stop what's becoming the literal God of Destruction because there's no greater force multiplier in the universe like being a Secondary School Student in Japan.

    Honestly, I'm wondering how this ends without as Deus Ex or Shig dying because it seems like this confrontation is unavoidable. Maybe Shigs "Power up" stopping at 70% means abusing his new powers fucks him up hardcore and he has to go into hiding for a bit, thus ending the fight early... or as mentioned above a new power awakens in Deku that allows him to temporarily win? I'm more betting on the "Early awakening" being the problem here and I expect the heroes will get thoroughly thrashed this encounter.

    Either way, they definitely turned the Villain into a literal OP God of Death. Also ->

    Spoiler: show
    Super sad they killed Double. I know he was deeply disturbed and a Villain, but I always had hope for him

    I'm also in the camp that Shiggy goes too hard too fast and needs to retreat. Otherwise, I don't really see Deku manifesting a singular new power being a dealbreaker here. Black Whip is still something he hasn't really used, with Flight being one of the other known powers. Neither is something I'd call sufficient in stopping him.

    What's likely is Endeavor gets the death we expected of All Might long ago. He hasn't been liked as the Number 1 in the world universe and the author has gone out of his way to give him development with Todoroki, the rest of his family, and the inkling he's still trying to become a better hero. However, now that the role of main villain has officially been passed, I'd say Deku's generation is going to need more incentive to step up. Endeavor can be that catalyst for Todoroki. Bakugo has been maturing in his own way now that he's been let in on Deku's secret. Tokiyami had his moment with Hawks. Most of the others haven't really had a standout moment here, but I'm also expecting Ochaco to do something unexpected, perhaps even pulling a Hinata and dying to save Deku, herself. Eraser will survive, but will also be similarly devastated by losing a student.

    Pragmatically, something has to happen to delay everything being wiped out. There are still too many unanswered questions for this to really be the end, among them the noted claim that Deku becomes a great hero. I'm actually kind of surprised we haven't had more hero deaths yet, with the only one being Crust jobbing it shortly after his entrance. There's also the matter of OFA likely escaping prison soon, or it being some Aizen tier plan of him wanting to be there all along to release other comparably bad guys. The real carnage is the likely empowerment of villains in the years to come, where the adults we do know will steadily fall or be seriously injured, further mandating the growth of the current gen while Shiggy recovers in the shadows.

    The man can literally disintegrate the world at this point, and all because he spent a few months in a Dabura meditation chamber. I figured this series was supposed to last a long time, but we've escalated to a guy who can feasibly eradicate the entirety of Japan probably in an afternoon's worth of work just by continuing to use his power.

    Double, but no one has posted in a while: the new chapter. Wow. Shigaraki has progressed to the point where he can basically disintegrate things that aren't even there. Shit in his mind can be disintegrated. That is some wild ass power improvement.

    He's built like a tank, has super speed, auto-regens, yeah. It'd have been like if Madara showed up right after the Chuunin Exam arc. This is end-boss level of power a third into the game. Its going to take some serious plotkai to navigate this without just turning the main cast into demigods for the sake of rising stakes.

    Well it looks like his weakness is going to be the Mentally unstable sort. His struggle with All for one taking over.

    Well he just DELETED the literal voice in his head trying to control him, so yeah. This is going to be an insane chapter to animate. All of that rubble everywhere...

    Back when Bleach was still going on, it definitely felt like that.
