Leap geeked out when Kamui Woods appear in this episode, and I still insist Bakugo will turn evil. All for One also flashes his huge shlong, so this episode is awesome.
– – – we discussed T(a)LK: DEVIL’S LINE EP 9 first – – –
– – – we discussed T(a)LK: MAHOU SHOUJO SITE EP 9 second – – –
we realized we eat up a lot of time discussing BHA, since I like to go off tangeant and Leap keeps baiting us about future events since he reads the manga.
TPAB: heroes fight back. That’s all I remember
Keiko: Well that was a huge chunk of this episode… almost all of it really.
Leap250: there’s a post credits, in case you didn’t see
Keiko: Yeah there was… All For One made his appearance finally as well
TPAB: so one for all is just a super all for one power? or something?
Keiko: Nah lol that’s not really a spoiler. He’s the opposite of all for one
Leap250: but, as something to chew on in the meantime…which came first, I wonder…
Keiko: All For One I’m guessing. Just makes more sense for the villain to exist first… I dunno
TPAB: yeah, one for all is like something for an underdog david to beat an OP goliath
Keiko: Exactly
Leap250: absurd when you think that All Might is the David in this situation
TPAB: kinda frames how goliath the All for One user is though
Keiko: Well considering the display All For One put on…. I can see why All Might is in such a state after his previous fight against him. Midoriya having to go against him in the future feels like a really terrible joke at this point
Leap250: assuming All For One and One For All have been at it for some time now, then Midoriya can take his time probably xD
Keiko: Probably. He is still a student. Hopefully he can put it off until he becomes a full-fledged hero or something
Leap250: yeah, I mean, the pros are pros for a reason
TPAB: not good enough, apparently
Keiko: Yeah they made quite the blunder this time round
TPAB: is the liquid teleport thing a new character or did All for One did that??
Keiko: My guess is that was all for one…
Leap250: that’s all All For One right there
TPAB: so it is multiple quirks. The scene at the OP now makes sense
Leap250: which one?
TPAB: the one where shiragaki walks and a bunch of people is desperately trapped behind him
Keiko: I don’t remember the OP all that well….
TPAB: i’ll get a screen grab
Leap250: oh, there’s a …darker reason for that
TPAB: oh wait, those are nomus, lol. my bad
Keiko: Ooo sounds promising. Does it have something to do with Shigaraki’s past?
Leap250: nope, it’s about the nomus mostly
Leap250: and why they’re depicted like that^
Keiko: Ohh that scene
TPAB: it does transition to All for One obliterating an area though. Are the nomu and All for One not connected?
Leap250: the last hint for this is ragdoll’s current state. poor ragdoll 😦
Keiko: Will ragdoll become nomu fodder?
TPAB: i think she was being turned into one
Keiko: Seems likely
TPAB: i’m just glad the creepy nomu didn’t kill her
Leap250: they’re all creepy xD
TPAB: but how and why was she the only one captured???
Keiko: Yeah nomus in general are creepy lol
TPAB: the one she crossed with had chainsaws and drills inside its body
Leap250: she had the least combat ready quirk out of the pussycats
Keiko: That’s true. Plus she was probably caught off guard
Leap250: All For One also wanted her quirk
Keiko: It’s a pretty useful quirk to be fair
TPAB: aha! All for One is turning into such an evil quirk, i love it. what is her quirk??
Leap250: it’s Otokonoko’s power minus the brainjacking
TPAB: ah, she can scan a person, right?
Keiko: Hahaha all for one even sounds evil since it is super selfish lol
Leap250: scan, locate, and spot weaknesses
Keiko: Yeah that’s basically it.
TPAB: the villains planned on kidnapping her from the get go???
Leap250: if you’d remember, All Might supposedly caved his head in
Keiko: If it can be passed on. Something tells me it can’t unless it takes in One for all
TPAB: it means the guy’s days are already numbered, but I can’t see him dying so early, then again, i didn’t expect the rescue to happen so fast
Keiko: That’s true. I feel like All Might’s gonna be facing All For One sooner than we expect
Leap250: if only Eraser Head wasn’t at a friggin press conference
Keiko: So true! He has the perfect quirk for this situation
TPAB: he’ll be spammed with nomu before he can even get near him, i bet
Leap250: that’s what the other heroes are for. lol @ american ninja
Keiko: Hahah true. The American ninja hahaha!
TPAB: that was their plan to begin with, and even Endeavor was taken care of,lol
Keiko: That’s true…. they were swarmed with nomus
TPAB: no one saw it coming, it was glorious. this arc can’t end without toga showing off her powers, damn it
Leap250: it’s gonna be a while
Keiko: True true! All Might’s scream said it all really
TPAB: damn it
Keiko: We’ll just have to sit tight before we see more of Toga I guess
Leap250: I wanna say two arcs from now, but it depends
TPAB: arcs happen fast though, so its good
Keiko: Yeah… arcs in this show are real quick! Might get to see Toga soon then
Keiko: Hahaha I just wanna see them get in some good action lol
Leap250: well, I know what I wanna see
Keiko: Ooo what?
Leap250: the rest of this current arc for starters. how do you guys think things will go down from here?
Keiko: From the looks of it, all the villains and Bakugo are gonna end up in the factory. Sooo Midoriya & co will somehow need to successfully rescue him….Will at least a few of the heroes come on scene?
Leap250: the factory is far, but it’s not that far from the bar yep
Keiko: Ohh ok yeah then a couple of the heroes might come over. It’ll be interesting to see how they save Bakugo from this
Leap250: interesting… how do you see All Might losing here?
TPAB: i dunno, just something that’ll betray Bakugo’s trust or something
Keiko: I hope All Might doesn’t lose here…
Leap250: what is a loss for All Might…
TPAB: plus, the public outcry of Bakugo turning will be interesting
Keiko: Currently he has lost right? Since he couldn’t save Bakugo when he had the chance
TPAB: yeah, a moral or a cerebral loss since shiragaki plays like that
Leap250: he’s still within reach though, albeit barely
TPAB: see, it’s there right. that possibility exist. an alternate timeline maybe
Keiko: Lol that’s for Stein;s Gate hahaha
Leap250: ‘faith of the people’ is a good way of putting it
TPAB: plus, it feels like UA doesn’t deserve a win yet, not until the villains gets more points at least. but again, i love the fact that I can’t predict sh*t in this show
Keiko: That’s true… it feels like the villains will slowly chip away at them before a turn around is possible. Hahah true… this show is quite unpredictable is some aspects
TPAB: what do you think will happen to the rescue team who is in the midst of All for One?
Leap250: I hope they don’t move from their spot for one
Keiko: Yeah just stay put and don’t move…. that’s a safe option really
TPAB: i feel like Deku must meet All for One though, and the guy should meet Almight’s successor
Leap250: meh, Deku is Shigaraki’s fight I’d imagine. else why have him there, lol
Keiko: Yeah… before anyone Midoriya has to face Shigaraki. That’s what it’s set up to be as well
TPAB: Shiragaki is like a puppy of the guy, so if the guy gets impressed by Deku, I feel like it just needs to happen xD
TPAB: BHA can blow up like that, i hope. if it runs long
Keiko: Probably…
TPAB: so, anything else?
Leap250: I think we got everything
Keiko: Yeah I think we’ve covered it all
TPAB: awesome. a 6 for me. the arc went by fast
Leap250: 7 for me, loved seeing Kamui Woods again
Keiko: I’ll give this ep a 7.
I said the same thing about eraser head lol. He could wrap that fight up in no time.
