I just feel bad for Monoma at this point, he looks so resigned to the "supporting character" role he gave to himself in this whole thing, not to mention doing his utmost best to play that role for the real MVP of Team B: Shinsou.
Someone give him a head pat.
Guess the conclusion is about to come next...and a whole lot of questions for Deku to try and explain off-class...
Someone would give him a head pat if he didn't act in a way that prompts people to give him a Dope Slap instead.
Disgusted, but not surprisedPeople forget that in terms of raw power, Ochaco is probably the strongest girl in 1-A
She came third in the entrance exam, after all
Bewitching EyesOf course Ochako is strong physically.
It goes with her astronomy theme.
After all, a meteorite might float completely weightless in space, but still pack enough of a punch to eradicate the dinosaurs with one single hit.
I will not be surprised if she renames her close-combat style into the "Meteor Melee Martial Arts".
Space is a scary place after all...

I think it would depend on the nature of the fight honestly; different people would win in different situations.
Also, at least the win was a team effort rather than Deku just carrying the whole thing.

Reaction Image RepositoryI'm glad, Ochako really needed a win. And Deku not just being able to master Black Whip like that is fine too, though I wonder about the wording — he says he'll be able to use it once he masters One for All, but I doubt it won't be touched upon at all till he's at 100%. And to be honest I'm not as big a fan of Shinsou as many others, so I got no problem with him not doing that much here, same for Monoma.
Dopants: He meant what he said and he said what he meant, a Ninety is faithful 100%.Ochako finally gets to style and profile.
This fight feels like an inverse of the Momo battle, in that because one character wasn't stopped when they needed it, the other team lost, only this time, it's Class A who manages to keep going.
One Strip! One Strip!Yeah, there are some match-ups I feel confident saying that this person would never win in a direct fight (like Sero vs. Shoto), but when talking about the girls, saying any one would definitely beat the any other is something I'm much less certain of.
Especially since that was made out to be how this match would normally play out.
Anyway, I still don't like the overall win-lose ration but, in isolation, this match was pretty good.
Ochaco got some much needed time to look good and I don't mind Shinso's team losing because I hadn't been assuming both of his teams would win anyway. Obviously it was possible, but it wasn't really needed to get the point across with him. Plus he gets extra points for acting during a time of legit crisis.

I don't really understanding this reasoning, All Might already beat All for One twice, and fully realized Deku was always going to be much stronger than All Might, even without this.
It never happening before doesn't automatically make him the "chosen one", the implication seems to be this would have happened no matter who got it next. But that doesn't change what kind of opportunity it is - which is why it's happening. It's the most interesting time for One for All so of course we, the audience, see it.
Nothing was said about the Quirks mutating, just that they're stronger. And I have to disagree about the visions; they're one of the more interesting things to happen in a while. It can definitely be overdone but it definitely should be explored.
