My Hero Academia General Discussion Thread #18

Some blunt durability feats that Luffy didn't no-sell with his fruit:
  • Captain Kuro made Luffy bleed with a kick to the face. (You may attribute the damage as more like Luffy cut his own lip with his teeth, though)
  • He got hurt getting face slammed by Smoker to the ground IIRC. Krieg also hurt him with his shield. No serious injuries in these cases, however.
  • IIRC he also had bruises fighting Laboon, Dorry, and Wapol (the latter might be more due to the explosion of his cannon ball rather than blunt force, however, but IIRC it made Luffy bleed)
  • Mr. 5's explosives harmed and KOed Luffy
  • Enel harmed Luffy by smacking him with his staff
  • Satori KOed Luffy, but he did it with a durability-bypassing attack
  • Foxy severely harmed Luffy, I forgot if Luffy was actively not using his Fruit here though, someone else can recall that arc
  • Franky seemed to have hurt Luffy with a punch
  • Base Lucci harmed Luffy with a punch as well, and later with other punches (forgor if he was actively using Haki during the fights)
Luffy has a whole lot more of feats with his rubber letting him ignore blunt damage, but lots of them are also generally from low level opponents/attacks or those who are around equal to him.
It's been a very long while since I've read OP though so I don't remember the exact details of all his fights.
lol
 
New MHA match if anyone here wants to contribute
 
Have you guys seen this? It's a cool as hell MHA simulator

I know how this goes.

1. "Check out this cool game, it's completely free"
2. "We need voice actors and would appreciate any audition"
3. I've spent like a hundred-something on a new mic and got nothing out of it.
 
Say, so I asked some other people about Luffy’s “immunity” to blunt force damage and haki, and one of them had this to say:

Quirks are a power system build around willpower the stronger you are the stronger the quirk gets much like how ACOC works. Haki also cannot negate quirks. Quirks aren't like devil fruits where its a power that can be obtained. You don't choose what quirk to get that's decided by birth its inherited by nature. Only AFO and OFA are the exceptions but even those don't function like DFs.

Would y’all agree with that?

If so, then Luffy’s haki shouldn’t be able to negate any smashes from OFA then, right?

It's not haki that negates physical impacts, it's Luffy's innate physical characteristics from becoming a "rubber-man"

1. Luffy is immune due to being Rubber
2. Haki doesn't only work on DFs.

Even if we operate under the assumption that both power systems are built around willpower, it doesn't mean that they would work the exact same way. You can't say the same thing with any other power system related to willpower either. Even verses such as Tensei Slime and so on which actually has Haki as well and behave very similarly still have intricate differences with the Haki from One Piece.

Luffy is immune due to being Rubber
This maintains my "Luffy is immune to Tier 0 Blunt Force" agenda.
 
Well, actually, if you punch him hard enough for it to stretch his body past his limit, he'll rip apart.
That’s exactly what I thought too. And if that’s the case, as well as if we take Papu’s multi-cont calc and equalize speed, then Deku should be able to beat up to Fifth Emperor Luffy.

I don't think that's enough, though. Kaidou, who is 5-C, barely stretched Boundman when he hit him
 
Well, not really, because Luffy can still pull his body back to its original shape.
So how many times the gap does it even need to be at minimum?? That’s what I’ve been trying to ask this entire time yet no one’s given a direct answer for some reason…
 
I was wonder how Deku's punch would have looked from Space. We will never know because Bones won't add anything to it even from the ground level much less a space scene.
 
It's probably been discussed before but have any of you seen the video from that NChammer 23 guy about MHA? He's a big Naruto/Boruto YouTuber. He makes stuff about other anime as well but he made a video about the last arc for MHA and was very critical and said he dropped the series because stuff like stakes and stuff not mattering and that was always funny to me. MHA is not perfect, but the fact he can go after MHA for stuff that Naruto has also done and completely ignore it is wild. The war arc from Naruto is far, far from perfect. Idk if it's because of the fandom or what but the hatred and overly critical analysis that MHA receives that other anime don't at times is insane.

All popular anime get criticism. Jjk is already getting a taste of this criticism, aot is one of the most critised anime and kny is one of them.

Mha was bound to get criticism due to the hype and expectations placed on it in the first place. When mha first came out naruto fandom where already hyping the shit out of it and spamming fanart of naruto and deku together, marvel studio and even dc has had collaboration early on, shonen jump big 3 where praising the shit out of it with oda admitting he was scared of the way mha was rising.

Why else do you think the ceo of toho claimed mha made anime mainstream and it was due to it rise in popularity that made piracy reduced and gave way to other animes in the west.

Mha has wide range of fans and a very high expectations from an author who has had more than 3 of his series cancelled already. Their was no way everyone was gonna be satisfied with the way mha was going and their was no way any anime with such a high demand and expectations wouldn't have chickened out.

Some people still thinks to this day that bakugo should have joined lov and some think not, some people think endeavor should've died and some think not, some people think todoroki would make a better protagonist's and some think not and some people think deku should have lost his arm long ago or shouldn't have gotten it back when he lost it during the war arc and some think otherwise. Mha has a wide range of opinion.

Like uncle Ben said, with great popularity comes great backlash
