Finally

 

[Earthyboy]

It's 2021 boys. Let's hope Deku will keep his arms in the next few chapters.

 

[BlackeJan]

Lets hope we meet a person that can grant wishes so we can get Midnight back

 

[LordTracer]

How about we get Twice back instead

Nah chop em off now

 

[CyborgSakumo]

How about we get Twice back instead

As much as I really , really love Twice unfortunately with how absolutely masterful that death scene was I honestly think him coming back would be a bad thing. (I would still be happy but )

 

[Axxtentacle]

we'd all be happy to get Twice back but story wise it'd be a bad decision

 

[Insert_creative_name_here_12]

Chapter’s out that page with the hero rethinking his job gave me chills

 

[BlackeJan]

So Shigi actually died but the mere will of wanting nothing but destruction is what revived him....bruh

 

[Insert_creative_name_here_12]

He's built different

 

[Metalballrun]

Ngl that "hero" rethinking his job is stupid.
As a normal human being, a fellow citizen, I can sympathize with him. I've been in situations and jobs where I've said the same thing.
But he's a hero. It's his job to protect the people and keep them safe. Especially during this time, the heroes needed the most.
He's right about one thing though, he should change jobs. He is unfit being a hero.

If Stain was there, I think Stain would help evacuating people. But he would shank that guy first.

 

[Metalballrun]

On a different perspective though, it could also be an opportunity for learning.
I do think I'm being harsh, these heroes are humans too, albeit I still stand that he is currently unfit to perform his duties considering he's just standing there instead of saving people. It's not like he's incapacitated or has no means to contribute to help.

If he still perseveres to help and continue being a hero afterwards, that's a sign of growth and strength to overcome a low point of weakness in dark times. I think we would see the same for the students as well.

I think you’re being way too harsh on the guy. When a lot of people joined Hero Society, it was because being a hero payed well and that it was a popular thing to do. It was also relatively safe as society had created a system where hero’s are always around the corner to help, so there was never an issue of being overwhelmed. But I mean in just one day, they gathered all of the heroes imaginable and did everything they could to stop this group of villains and what happened? ******* chaos happened. There was this monster with multiple quirks who couldn’t be killed as well as a giant monster running theough cities destroying everything. I mean after seeing so many heroes die and so much failure on the part of society after bringing in everyone to get the job done.
It’s no wonder why this guy is reconsidering his job, dude just experienced a war. Anyone would want to quit after living through that.

Supernatural Willpower for shiggy and limitless stamina Nomu here we come

 

[CyborgSakumo]

Time to give shiggy type 7 immortality.

We joke, but probably not that but I think supernatural willpower is a given here and possibly a very limited resurrection.

But also, the line AFO has in the official translations where he says why do you assume tomorrow will come is so foreboding and scary. I'm really hoping Shigaraki tells AFO his turn is over soon, but AFO doesn't seem to want that to happen. We're by no means done with shigaraki, but AFO is scary.

 

[CyborgSakumo]

Supernatural Willpower for shiggy and limitless stamina Nomu here we come

Limitless stamina is a bit of a meme, but definitely should be put on their profile on how long they've been fighting and still aren't tired yet.

If it’s no gonna be rated as “Limitless” off the Afo statement probably have Nomu pages stamina have Extremely high(Like some pages I’ve seen for other verses) and not just Very High

Yeah, I already acknowledged that I am being too harsh.

But it's still correct to say that he is, currently, not fit being a hero. He himself admits it so by saying he needs a new line of work, all the while his peers are continuing to help all they can, while the ones on the front lines who had gone through the same and worse continued to chase after Shigaraki.

Of course this is not entirely on that hero as well. The MHA society as we know it was built upon All Might's back which emphasized people's absolute sense of security and villains cowering in fear. Something that Shigaraki has chipped away little by little.

But like you said, the occupation of a "hero" has been perceived to have way less weight than it should be, despite one of the reasons why such a society exists is because of heroes in the first place. It's not like no one is allowed to break or have moments of weaknesses, but it's on these exact times where heroes are truly needed. When even heroes are being overwhelmed by a crisis, what's gonna happen to a normal citizen? And that's why the majority of the heroes are still working, saving people and fighting villains no matter how much death or destruction they've faced. I refuse to believe that any hero isn't aware, teached and trained of the possibilities and what to do in times of crisis like this.

While this guy is being used as a symbol that humanizes heroes, at the same time he's also symbolizing the flaws of a complacent society, along with himself being unfit (as of now) being one of society's pillars.

 

[DemonGodMitchAubin]

I imagine many heroes will quit after what happened, and that will cause a big decrease in heroes, meaning villainy will increase

Far as I understand, unless we're literally talking about infinite stamina characters its more important to explain the character's stamina feats as there's no established stamina rating. This is why I don't understand why shigaraki's current arc stamina feats haven't been added to his profile.

Stamina

Stamina is the measure of a character's ability to remain active, exert themselves for long periods of time, and power through harsh circumstances. This general statistic encompasses a number of different traits and characteristics that operate differently, and that can thus differ within a...

[Metalballrun]

It's certainly a thing to ponder on.
I was predicting that MLA's tenets would reign supreme and the average citizen would take up arms eventually over time because of the decline of heroes. But the vast majority of the PLF were all apprehended.
We have yet to see what is All For One's next move. It'll likely decide what happens next.

Fair enough, stamina is kind of a weird stat to assess in general I suppose especially when comparing characters from different verses.

And shiggy desperately needs those stamina feats added to his page this entire arc was a big stamina feat for him.

 

[Axxtentacle]

I see "pain tolerance" on some characters profiles, and i'm really confused as to why. It's not anything special, dislocating your shoulder and just moving it back into place isn't really much for characters. I don't see why it's listed like an ability.

 

[TheRustyOne]

Kamino, Kyushu, Deika City, and now all of the cities here. All of this destruction has happen in less than a year, Japan probably hadn't seen destruction in this scale in decades or likely far longer. Just Machia only caused destruction on par with a natural disaster or something worse.

I imagine moral in Japan is really low, thousands of people are probably dead and some cities don't even have any Heroes to help them.

Now AFO is about to head to Japan's biggest prison, and if he frees every single criminal there... Considering how he said there won't be a tomorrow and how he won't let them rest. This isn't over yet, we'll get a small reprieve, but AFO isn't going to let them truly rest.

If this Prison break does free people besides AFO, I imagine Stain, Muscular, Kurogiri, and more might show up again. Since they're confirmed to be held in Tartarus.

In some examples its not added but an example is a character like Garou from OPM who pain literally has ceased to affect him at that point pain manipulation abilities lose their hold on him. Not every character should get it but it does come to the point that pain manipulation abilities will start losing their effectiveness do to the sheer tolerance of it, example being a character like Erza from Fairy tail who's pain tolerance allowed her to ignore pain manipulation abilities.

 

[CyborgSakumo]

Also, I just want to make sure we're all on the same page about this. The cracks on Shigaraki we were seeing up till now were because of AFO(character) as the second AFO took over it literally broke his face like a shell and AFO came out from underneath.

This wasn't just a shoulder dislocation. This was shiggy being burned alive multiple times, smashed to hell and back by a berserk Deku, Attacked and bombarded by attacks from multiple high level heros, and still going. It wasn't just Shiggy simply being unharmed by these things either. He was shown multiple times to clearly be in a massive amount of pain throughout most of the arc and kept going until he was eventually KOed by sheer force.

 

[TheRustyOne]

We need to see more but yeah it's really looking like AFO's face is underneath Shigaraki's somehow. If his face really is there it'll probably be explained, maybe Super Regen is recreating AFO's face because he's in control or maybe I'm way off.

It could still be just a visual thing, but who knows, I wouldn't be surprised either way.

 

[OneBleachHurricane]

Recreating his Prime Body by sacrificing Shigiraki's body

 

[Valiant_Abyss]

I'd be disappointed if AFO just takes over fully until Shiggy's body is eventually defeated. It would be disappointing as hell to see Shiggy go through all this crap just to have his body snatched and used like a doll by AFO. I really do hope he finds a way to expel AFO.

 

[CyborgSakumo]

So for Shigaraki's stamina feats this arc

- Going through hell for 3 months getting his body ripped apart and remodeled while being fully conscious.

- Fighting Endeavor, Bakugou, Ryukyu, 45% Deku, Gran Torino, and taking attacks from 100% Deku and Todoroki while his body was breaking apart because of AFO and being quirkless.
-Major damage includes.
-Being burned alive and when he woke up.
-Having his arm burned by a prominence burn.
-Being hit by a vanishing fist which put him near death's door.
-Being hit by a 100% downward spike which destroyed his jaw.
-Being hit by another 100% attack and Todoroki's ice wave.

-Fighting berserk 100% rage Deku while his regeneration has significantly slowed down and taking a point-blank prominence burn and then the backlash of attempting to steal OFA which caused an explosion which put Deku's body out of commission.

- Fighting Nejire and Todoroki while resisting AFO's influence in a weakened state and being capable of fighting them for an extended period of time.

-Survivng a full power attack from both Nejire and Todoroki while still being extremely injured.

 

[CyborgSakumo]

It could still be just a visual thing, but who knows, I wouldn't be surprised either way.

I don't know how it could be a visual thing when Gigantomachia who could smell Shigaraki stated he could smell both of them and the cracks are clearly not just a visual thing.

 

[Earthyboy]

-Fighting berserk 100% rage Deku.

That reminds me, we need to add Berserk Deku to his profile. It seems like that's an actual form.

 

[Earthyboy]

We need a render of Deku here.

 

[Damage3245]

That's not a good pic for a render IMO.

 

[Valiant_Abyss]

I don't think berserk deku needs a separate key.
