My Hero Academia General Discussion Thread #18

We don't even know what happened during the fight. Machia could've easily swatted away Re-Destro by accident during the fight. The only glimpses we see of the fight are Edgy attempting to stab Re-Destro with little success and then multiple chapters later Re-destro appearing passed out.

Plus due to how thin he Is when he pierces you could equate it to how Mosquitoes pierce us humans and that’s likely how he defeated re Destro

Yes, but he bare minimum is going to need to have a durability upgrade as we see he definitely took damage and took hits, plus considering how many other characters are 8-A it sort of seems weird the #4 hero isn't.

I'm thinking this

AP: High 8-C possibly 8-A(Apparently defeated Redestro, though the way he defeated him is unclear.

Dur:8-A(Survived a fight with Redestro and clearly took damage)

Geten
Dur:8-A(Survived attacks from Cementoss.)

Cementoss:
Dur:8-A(Survived attacks from Geten)

*Survived attacks from Cementoss who could match his ice.

But yeah I agree with that
 
Edgeshot and Cementoss should have 8-A dura for taking hits from 8-A characters. Also it's hard to tell what's an injury on Re-Destro from the color of his Stress.
It's also possible Edgeshot didn't pierce through his Stress, we aren't sure. If we don't get an explanation, then maybe we can mention he might possibly be able to pierce 8-A characters.

Why would he be High 8-C though, he has no reason to scale to any High 8-C characters to my knowledge.

The high 8-C was from the Nomu he defeated, I remembered it used to be on it's profile we can just use unknown if that's an issue.
 
Just note that piercing someone doesn't mean you scale to their dura, especially considering how thin Edgeshot can get. He can mess around with a person's insides without being fatal yet still knock them out, and he can pierce a hole in their lungs without being fatal as well.

Similar to a Mosquito piercing a human's skin, so Edgeshot "might" be noted to be able to pierce 8-A dura. But he doesn't have 8-A level AP

Yeah, that's why I'm saying possibly we should note it, but the fact he pierced him at all should be a feat noted on his profile.

Unknown, possibly 8-A(Apparently defeated 100% stress redestro ,but its unclear how he defeated him)
 
It'll be mentioned on his Attack Potency, but he wouldn't have a 8-A rating. He'll still be unknown, no possibly 8-A rating.

We might have it mentioned in his AP section that he might be able to pierce Re-Destro's 100% Stress form.

K, that's fine it should be noted as that's a feat but due to the nature of his power giving him AP ratings is going to be hard.
 
Unless he punches someone, which probably won't happened, but yeah AP isn't something we easily rate for him.

INB4 Edgeshot didn't pierce Re-Destro's Stress but attacked his insides by going through his nose/ear or something
 
Re-destro definitely has 2 different power levels now just like All Might and AFO:

- Prime Re-destro - has both legs

- Current Re-destro - with prosthetic legs.

Tokoyami overwhelmed and broke his prosthetics although they weren't for battle. With prosthetics for battle, it still seems like Edgeshot destroyed them. Re-destro's stress armor can't cover prosthetics so his quirk ends at his stump.

Honestly, prosthetics are a nerf in MHA considering there aren't any mythical super-durable metals like Adamantium so if you have a strength enhancer or durarability quirk, the prosthetic will be a weak point as it will be weaker than your body.

Unfortunately that's true, the AP is the same , but it has to be noted as a weakpoint.
 
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.
I think Machia smells AFO in Shigaraki cause the quirk was literally biologically injected into him. That is explainable by MHA science, as for the face changing, if it's not just a visual sign, then there has to be a quirk responsible for this shape-shifting.
 
How does the Claustro Armor work? If they don't have something that can withstand his power, wouldn't the armor break after one hit and he'd lose the boost?

I mean considering we can still see that face underneath, it's probably really there. I highly doubt they won't explain it in that case, so we'll know eventually.

I could believe that if he had smelled AFO the first time Shigaraki woke up, but that's not the case. Gigantomachia only notes he's there when we say the face break thing after prominence burn, he smells him before in the arc but doesn't note anything.
And the cracks are clearly there and bleeding I really don't see what other way this could be.

Honestly, Re-destro's quirk is a bit complicated. The stress armor is like something emitted on his skin similar to the markings on his face (and Destro's face) but his body still transforms like the Hulk so that can be counted as a Transformation quirk while the stress armor and stress bomb are probably emitter-type abilities.

With his legs gone, the armor would cover the stump but not the prosthetics. On top of that, when he transforms into basically the Hulk, his prosthetics wouldn't be able to keep up unless he changes to bigger ones. And if someone exerts force on him or targets the prosthetics, they'll be able to break the and immobilize him.
 
We have a render out for Deku's new costume. Should we apply this as his current?

Unless he quirk evolved, which is an honest possibility, it was made pretty explicit that Overhaul can't use his quirk without his hands so I'll take the idea with a grain of salt.
 
I still stand by my point. Just cause it looks different that doesn't means it's bad.

But the problem is that it's inconsistent with all the previous renders. It sticks out like a sore thumb. It'd be better to go for consistency here. And I never said it was bad, I said it stands out compared to everything else.

That goes for a large amount of profiles with manga and anime. Plus, I don't think there is necessarily to have all the images look like one another. One Piece profiles for example.
 
Off topic, but will we ever just reach a point that we have so many thread pages that we just decide to start a new discussion thread?
 
Pretty sure it's supposed to be because they're comparable to other characters?
Insert is likely questioning that Nighteye never moved at supersonic speeds. I'm not sure to whom does Nighteye's movement/travel speed scales either. Overhaul in particular has no running/movement speed feats as far as I know, so it's possible that he could only run at athletic human speed.

Currently the MHA profiles has [Insert] (travel/movement) speed, with [Insert] reactions and combat speed.
