Oh the effects of popularity.

Damn shame people get so twisty just cause something becomes mainstream.

Pretty much yeah. Because Black Clover doesn't get that in the west, they wank off about how much better it is instead. Even using TV Tokyo sales and the like as proof, when Hatedoms just want reasons to wank off why something else is better and justify their hatred.

BTW the Sales and Profits of TV Tokyo top 5 anime include Black Clover in both lists and OMG IT SUCKS Boruto as it has a hatedome all its own in the West. Boruto being right under Naruto itself in the Number 1 spot.

Whats funny is that Hori and Black Clovers mangakas are Friends in real life.

It should also be noted the hatred got really bad starting with the Yakuza and Overhsul arc.

I think I would be a lot more okay with this development if it wasn't stated that all these new quirks also will be massively boosted. Giving Izuku new powers could open up for some interesting strategies, but when you have half a dozen different super moves it's hard to think of anything challenging enough to actually require it. All Might was already someone who could mostly just punch his way through everything; now imagine if he also had the quirks of Endeavor, Hawks, Best Jeanist, Edgeshot, Mirko, Kamui Woods and Ryukyu.

Well, if All Might could do that, All Might would have been even more overpowered than he was. But the thing is, that was the point. Going "He's eventually going to be way better than everyone else " is not a complaint, it's how things have always been. If someone didn't like that aspect of the series, they were probably never going to be happy even without this.

Another interesting spin would be if unlocking these new powers would permanently cost part of AFO's strength enhancement abilities, like if it converted AFO's pure power into the various abilities. It would prevent Deku from becoming too OP and is anyone really excited to see Deku go from 8% to 15% or whatever anyway?

That strikes me as terrible idea, if I'm being honest, and also something that this guy would have mentioned.

And to answer your question, I actually am still pretty interested in his progress percentage-wise, because I imagine the strength is still going to be his main thing.

And once again they prove how fucking stupid they all are.

Especially comparing the ratings of an ongoing show with a seasonal show. Obviously there’s incomparable differences there.

Though really what that teaches you is that Japan really does love its shonen.

[up][up][up] Yup that’s when Eri showed up & the whole Fate thing. Man these people are easy to read.

Sometimes you can have decent conversations based on less popular series because it doesn't attract the hateaholics on /a/ but yeah dont bother with that cesspool of hatred.

While hatedom is annoying, I don't really see the point in continuing to bring them up. If someone was being irrationally hateful here that would be one thing, but complaining about it elsewhere on a semi-regular basis seems kind of like a waste of time.

Huh how’s The Promised Neverland over there?

Cause it’s getting bigger now with the anime & I’ve already seen people bitching about its popularity.

[up] It’s a minor bit of catharsis for me honestly.

Doing fine actually. Doesn't have these problems, though you are required to belittle Don and Gilda. Because of how little importance they get.

[up]x2 Just remembering when it wasn't that bad to talk about My Hero Academia on /a/.

It really is a cesspool most of the time, but it's fun to talk about well-liked shows. Mostly non-shonen since those attract the console wars-tier shitflinging from /v/ falseflaggers.

We can't say this wasn't foreshadowed. The very fact that One For All exists is proof that it can collect quirks. As for hard work, it was only because of his courage and tenacity that Izuku inherited One For All in the first place, let alone has learned to use it without hurting himself.

Man, I wish Horikishi didn't insist on Mineta's perversion. He can actually be pretty cool when he's not being...Mineta.

Huh, pretty good.

There's a small translation error though: on page 9, they translate Shoda's first name, Nirengeki, when they don't need to. That's what the whole "Second Consecutive Attack" thing is about.

Man Uraraka has the serious potential to be a top-tier Judoka.

Its the perfect martial art for her really, she can literally throw people to the ground like its nothing.
