No, I blame the people on here. Every time there's been a major debate, the voices of reason always get ignored. Well its not just this site, but the power-scaling community in general.
Most authors don't really hide stuff like this, fans just look for an opening, exploit it, then expand the scale beyond logic.

Oh Yes, because the author making movies, spin-offs and whatnot canon are obviously the fans fault huh?

There's nothing significantly bad about our scaling. Authors don't power scale their stories, and Hori is no exception, proven by how everyone and their mothers can now hurt and be on par with Prime AM level characters just because Hori wanted to.
That's simply how shonens work sometimes, the logic have been thrown out of the window a long time ago, and now random characters can reach Mountain level+ power and durability without any strength-enhancing Quirks.

I mean, yeah? Characters usually get stronger over time, idk why people get so confused about this.

He is saying that random characters can now one-shot every single DBZ villain when our heroes took decades of training to even reach that level, and without any explanation or reason for their level of power, they are just that strong.
Never forget how Gohan went from 4-B to 3-A in a few minutes of sparring.

War arcs in particular tend to buff a lot of characters so that they will remain relevant, especially in battle shounen where power systems are rudimentary or barely above that level of simplicity. MHA is no exception.
Though it's not like people just got buffed randomly in AP, Tokoyami and Dark Shadow was always gonna hang with the Origin Trio.

And especially in cases where the main character goes off course, like Deku was doing for a bit there. That typically leads to a pretty big scaling buff.

I thought I was the only one in this thread who thought this way.

Authors CAN and usually DO powerscaling with their characters
All that stuff about calculations, tiers and gaps might be a fandom and battleboarding thing, but power scaling is a storytelling tool ("Wow, my new character is definitely very strong, what do I do? I know, he's going to put up a good fight or beat the protagonist, or the previous villain"), not something that was invented for battleboarding
But it also happens that an author may not understand the implications of certain things, for example, he might believe that a hypersonic character might have trouble dealing with a crowd of people just because there are so many of them. The authors do powerscaling, but they are not (necessarily) very scientific people, that would be a more appropriate phrase

I think that's foreshadowing something.

I think it's a build up for Deku to have his "I'm here!" moment.

Yeah, the chapter was more or less journalists "filler" but not every chapter needs to be high octane fights. A chapter like this is also definitely less taxing than a chapter that's covering fights.
As a setup chapter, this was pretty good for the Deku vs Shigaraki fight. My only hope is that from next chapter Hori fully commits to 3 or 4 chapters covering 1 battlefield in full. That's when the battles really hit cause so far my favorite stretch of chapters is still Shoto vs Dabi (4 chapters) and Endeavor and co. vs AFO (5 chapters). Both fights were covered in full from beginning to end which is probably why I loved them so much.
All other battles in the arc have been pretty disjointed cause of all the cutaways, teases, moving from battlefield to battlefield, etc. I just wish Hori picked one fight and committed to the end then moved on to a 2nd, 3rd, etc fight while minimizing the cutaways and shifts.

I think Hori wants to portray how chaotic the battle is, since this is all happening at once pretty much

So I was watching this video and I noticed something off.
I disagreed with some of his points regarding Deku, but whatever.
But then I looked at his twitter and...
This is why I don't **** with anime-tubers.
If you look at his YT channel, all he does is shit on MHA. He rarely talks positively about it, lol.
The non-fan energy is real. Like, damn.

It's not even about him having an opinion. Like, his points are just wrong. They aren't orchestrated well at all.
Who in their right mind would give the Villain Hunt Arc a ******* 4/10?

i completely forgot about aoyama parking lot fight, hopefully we switch to that fight soon and it better not be done in a flashback

And they'd be ******* wrong.
And keep in mind, this is the guy who gave Shoji's character arc a 0/10
I don't think I need to explain why that's wrong, do I?

******** on MHA does give people attention. That's the main reason a lot of people do it.
MHA is popular so a lot of people use it to try and prop up their favorite series.

Yeah, you're right.
It certainly doesn't help that this dude always talks about Re:Zero and Subaru

A redditor is trying to convince me the verse is FTL because they dodged radio waves.

Better than twitter thinking Gon would stomp deku because he's "crazier than him" and has his adult form none of which comes close to deku but man they sure think thats enough
I'll tank wank over weird hate and downplay anyday

Over half my intelligence was ripped out of me by that TikTok video.
The proof:
Radio Waves are FTL. Shigaraki uses Radio Waves.
Deku dodges these at 45% shows a picture of Deku kicking air at Shigaraki’s decay wave BEFORE Shigaraki even began chasing Deku
… and this redditor is unironically claiming I’m too hard headed to provide proof when he spent 8 replies refusing to link me the video when I asked him to provide the feat or video with the feat. And I didn’t even make any claims! What was I supposed to provide proof for?!
Reddit should have a “that’s it, I’m deleting YOUR account” button for people of such IQ.
