Should have he died?
No bait. Both lovers and haters of MHA are welcome as long as they don't start insulting each other for no reason
My hero academia
Imagine if All Might wasn't there in the first episode Deku would have died in vain lmao
100% he should have died, that would have been a powerful emotional moment instead he gets to defeat to defeat the ultimate villain and is alive and well. The shows just bizarre
Obviously I mean "should have he died against AFO?"
I hate MHA now in large part BECAUSE he wasn't given the dignity of a heroic death. Now he serves as a metaphor for the manga by being a pathetic shell of his former self 6 million quirks cringe. He used to be my Yas Forums motivation. I'll die mad.
Honestly, MHA has a LOT of problems, All Might being the least of which. I feel like his fate is more a product of Hori's incompetence as a writer and his death or survival would have meant little (if anything at all) in the long run.
Where's he right now?
I dont mind that he didnt die, plus ultra and all that.
It's just that he's been completely irrelevant afterwards.
The pacing with the Yakuza and now the Villains arc is completely out of whack.
Yes because the O MY 7 QUIRKS retcon shat on his character. The series peaked incredibly early with the AM vs AFO fight and has never came close to reaching those levels since.
>100% he should have died, that would have been a powerful emotional moment
Is MHA your first anime? Killing off a character for a powerful emotional moment is the kind of stuff you hear first time watchers say.
I don't think it matters with Hori's skills in writing. He would've managed to fuck up his death too in some way. Like making him a permanent force ghost next to Deku.
>The series peaked incredibly early with the AM vs AFO fight
This. I don't think Hori quite realizes just how much he fucked up with this. By getting AFO BTFO'd this fucking early it completely nullifies the effect he had as a looming antagonist. Shigaraki is nowhere near as interesting or intimidating either even with the newest arc, and Chisaki was a fucking joke of a villain (who's fight, funnily enough had Hori pop his load early yet again by revealing 100% Deku this early, thus why we probably got the O MY 7 QUIRKS bullshit.)
Hori can't do a long series to save his life, we're still in the first fucking year of UA too.
But it's entirely clear that AM dying at that point would have been much better for his character, since then he's been used for barely anything and has just become a shadow of what his character used to be, not to mention Hori's incompetence has further diminished his character.
AM being a force ghost would be 10x better than what he is now. Shame because he's by far the best character in the series.
>Like making him a permanent force ghost next to Deku
This would have been better only then the ending he planned for the manga originally
Looks like summer is coming early this year.
Just imagine AM now but half transparent. That's what I meant.
Standing in the background. giving unhelpful commentary.
I, too, have no argument. Based BNHAtard
>Looks like summer is coming early this year
Serious question. What does this mean?
It means he has no defence for his shitty series.
Diagree.
Living, but only a shell of his former self, a symbol of power now an emanciated skeleton. That is sad. Death is not the worst thing.
>I hate MHA now in large part BECAUSE he wasn't given the dignity of a heroic death
I dont' see a problem. It would be a heroic death, but life doesn't care for dignity. I'd say it has even more impact that he didn't die. Instead of becomign a martyr, his smybol etched dpeeper than ever, he will slowly waste away.
He was going to lose his power any way. I see no point killing him. Killing the mentor is the most obvious thing you can kill.
I think this manga is only interesting for All Might.
>Should have he died?
Yes. I get he was super popular but him going out in the AFO fight would have giving him a far better send off and completely his arc while proving he was the symbol he claimed to be.
Better to be obvious than to completely avoid having stakes in the first place, this series has 0 tension now.
>Killing the mentor is the most obvious thing you can kill.
Somethings are obvious because they just work.
I think Nighteye's death was exactly meant to give the illusion of stakes, but to me his character death was a failure
>now
I feel like it never had one. They put the big villain way too soon with way too little foreshadowing. The story telling is atrocious in MHA. The cliche characters and the hero philosophy are somewhat pleasant though, it's a sweet little manga with a few good ideas and pretty nice arts.
It's a shame that the hero philosophy is garbagely executed though. Deku isn't an inspirational figure at all because all his story tells you is that you can only become a hero through nepotism/being the chosen one. Mirio and Kirishima's stories are far better.
>hero philosophy
I think this is were the serie is really failing. Deku is still a crybaby with no ability to decide for himself. Bakugo is still an asshole and he still get prised.
Lastly, all might thinks that "saving people " is as important as "wanting to win for the sole purpose of winning" for being a good hero
This. The closest characters to being the best heroes are two people that were just lucky in life
it means that summerfags like need to fuck off
>I have no argument yet I must REEEE
The state of BNHAtards.
Extremely good argument right there, user. Did it really take you half an hour to come up with that response?
All Might vs AFO happened way too early.
He's just calling you ESL
It's "defense" not "defence" for example.
Before you accuse me of being a mnhatard, I'm
It is a good thread until the MHAshitters come in acting like this series is flawless and you're a "newfag" for thinking otherwise.
>"wanting to win for the sole purpose of winning"
No. It's winning for the sole purpose of neutralizing a threat, instead of letting it get away and potentially cause greater harm down the road.
>resorting to picking apart spelling because you lack an argument
Based retard. I will concede on the spelling error but that doesn't detract from my point against him in the slightest.
I'm the OP, please stop insulting each other. I wanted a good MHA's thread for once
He needs a cape
You're not a gambling man, are you? The odds are not in your favor.
and here come the decuckfaggots
>It's winning for the sole purpose of neutralizing a threat, instead of letting it get away and potentially cause greater harm down the road
No it's not. Read the chapter again. All might clearly states that he wants to win all the time just because it makes you feel good. And anyway winning against the villan goes into " wanting to save people"
>the hero philosophy are somewhat pleasant though,
There's no hero philosophy here though. I don't want to bring up the spider-man comparison again but (and this is an issue with a lot of western comics too so Im not singling this out) but at some point being a fanboy has become enough of a justification on it's own. Characters aren't heroes for tragic or noble reasons they're heroes because OMG HEROES ARE SO COOL GUYS! Deku could have been someone who stood up for the quirkless but even that didn't come to pass.
>And anyway winning against the villan goes into " wanting to save people"
Nah. Saving the victim can (and often does) occur independently of capturing the villain.
No, he shouldn't have, what he should've done is make a better choice of his successor, give OfA to a character who wouldn't require Horikoshi to pull bs like O MY SEVEN QUIRKS out of his ass just to keep him relevant. Oh god, how I wish All Might and Hori rethought their beyond horrible choices...
I keep saying it but the series would have been better if it wasn't a choice at all but Deku just got stuck with it by narrative chance and had to deal with it.
>They put the big villain way too soon with way too little foreshadowing.
This is the dumbest criticism I've ever heard. All for one was foreshadowed for 80 callers before he appeared. Also, he ISN'T the big bad, anymore then all might is the big good. The whole point of the series is showing the end of the previous gen to bring on the new one.
>Also, he ISN'T the big bad, anymore then all might is the big good
Yeah, see that really doesn't work. It just undermines the main hero when someone else takes care of the big bad while he gets the B string fill in.
>Deku could have been someone who stood up for the quirkless
Ah yes the world's shittiest idea that brainlets bring all the time
And the only good decision mha ever made
Nothing ruins the story more than superior normal shitter wank.
>Ah yes the world's shittiest idea that brainlets bring all the time
I can think of 7 worse ones
now he's alive and he just walk around. They shoud have killed him
the second he lost his powers i lost interest in the manga
Why does this shit attract such faggotry?
Wasn't the idea of Deku's ideal hero was one who could save everyone? I don't think it particularly mattered to him whether the person he was protecting was quirkless or not. He'd try to help them anyway.
I actually like the fact that he gets to live to see the society he worked so hard to build waste away. And I hope he will have to face the fact that his dream was flawed in first place. Way more interesting than a simple emotional death
They're heroes because it's literally a job, the spider comparison makes zero sense in the world of MHA
Literally he should have died and be the one to show up in Deku's mind. That way he could've be set up as the trigger for 7 quirks.
