There are somethings you can't go through without becoming friends afterward... such as kicking the shit out of each other at high speed and even higher temperatures.
This obviously means that the final chapter of the manga is going to be like a hundred pages long.
Reaction Image RepositoryI'm definitely interested in seeing what the "Lizard Tail Cut" and "Razor Sharp" Quirks actually do - we still have zero information on them other than the name. Pony's "Horn Cannon" was substantially more literal than I expected, but pretty impressive, so hopefully these will be equally interesting.
The more I think about it, the more excited I am about seeing Awase in action. He was already in the top 10 at the entrance exam, and his quirk is one of those ones that implies a lot of creative/strategic applicability. (Maybe he's a speedster who works through immobilizing his enemies. Maybe the heavy armor on his costume means he specializes in hand-to-hand combat. I don't know. I'm just excited.)
Also, since this is a nonfatal situation where scoring is based on capture, he can do stuff like can weld unconscious allies to the ground instead of defending them. Or prevent his own capture by welding himself to anyone that tries to grab him. (Though that latter strategy is probably off the table, since Momo already used it.)

Really? I would think that Bondo would be well-suited for this, personally, being to immobilize people.
Oh God! Natural light!When your power is sticking things in place, and they only count as caught if thrown in a cell, no, I don't think it counts as good.
And unless they get the entire team at once, going "just glow one person, knock them out, then crack apart the glow, then take them to the cell" probably isn't practical either.

Nah, I think there's potential. Immobilizing the upper half of someone's body would work. So would immobilizing someone, and then coming back to retrieve them later. Or sending a less useful teammate to do it - especially if he has some sort of support item that allows him to undo the glue more quickly.
In retrospect, I guess it makes the most sense the put the last recommended student in Round 4. It's the only in which there otherwise wouldn't really be anyone particularly notable on B's team.
"Sending a less useful teammate to do it" - do you think they can just carry his glow around? Just leaving people in place doesn't sound like a viable plan either.
I'm not saying they won't find something for him to do, but "glowing things in place" just isn't an ability that's very suited for this situation.

Ah - then I guess I wasn't clear in what I was saying initially. I meant that if Bondo used his glue to immobilize someone from class A, he could leave that person there and come back to collect them when the fighting was less intense. Or one of his other teammates could chip that person out/collect them immediately while Bondo went off to immobilize more people.
No, I got that, I just don't think those are viable in this situation.
Like, I'm sure he will do something, but whatever it is is going to be less straightforward than that, because the variables of the situation just don't lend themselves to a straightforward approach as being good.
For that to have good chances of working, they'd probably have to isolate members one at a time, and then gang up on them immediately.

I feel like that would have been mentioned if it were the case with Momo. And if that were the case Shoto wouldn't have taken the recommendation from Endeavor out of spite.
