By the way, have Horikoshi pulled any April Fool's jokes yet this year?

You remember that Moth Deku parody in the latest chapter? He did a follow up but with Bakugo as Godzilla.

Where can I find it?!

Wait, does that mean that Shigaraki is Battra too!?

Huh, I thought the guy with the flowers was supposed to be some random guy, but it's probably Endeavor, delivering flowers to Rei. Same kind of flowers, anyway.

You may or may not have already realized that yourselves.

I don't think it's anyone we know. A lot of those shots were just generic happy things.

this takes place before the pro hero arc so those are probably the flowers she had in that arc when she talks about how he remembered her favorite flowers

I really hope Horikoshi stays away from Time Travel because parsing this is already giving me a headache and this is technically a flashback

Oh that's just what we need, a time travel Quirk. /sarc

As anyone who follows the MCU thread might know by now...I hate time travel in stories.

I'm half'n'half on time travel, if it's used extensively or as a reset button (which it frequently is) then it just gets irritating, although I do like stories where people are transported to the distant past/future.

LSBK Since: Sep, 2014
#28439: Apr 1st 2019 at 7:47:11 PM

Like I said, for this story specifically, it just seems like anything we'd actually time-travel to see in the past could just be shown to Deku via vestiges flashback.

Another reason to hate the whole "Bakugo time-travelled and is one of the past users" thing, is that it would mean that Izuku was literally going to get Bakugo's Quirk, but stronger. I honestly can't think up any reason any one would think that would somehow be good for the story.

Well, unless they were a hardcore Bakugo hater and convinced themselves that would mean that Bakugo could die or otherwise be removed from the story, or something. So, like, still a terrible reason in actuality.

Theory posted yesterday, by someone claiming that Bakugo is actually one of the past One for All users. The reasoning was super shoddy and easy to take a part.

Clearly this means Bakugou will go Plus Ultra and take his explosions further beyond!

Yeah, I'd rather not drag time travel into this. 90% of the time when time travel is brought into a story that isn't specifically dealing with it, all it does is needlessly complicate things and open up a dozen plot holes for every one that it explains.

So Dabi comes off as the least connected to the League, right? Like, it doesn't seem as if he likes any of them, or has really formed the attachments a point has been made to show the others have.

Because, as is made clear by his introduction, he's a noob villain (no crimes to his name, and whatnot) who joined up because of Stain.

If he is indeed the missing Todoroki, then it's entirely possible he just signed on because fuck you dad. Like, he's the 'kid who's in way over his head' archtype.

Considering that Dabi has the highest body count of the currently active League members, I wouldn't call him "over his head." I'd see it as more likely that he's using them (probably for revenge against Endeavor/the hero system) than the reverse.

Does anyone actually read these?

Dabi might be the most murderous of the lot. Even Shigaraki who explicitly wants to tear everything down doesn't have as high a bodycount.

If he really is Touya then it’s amusing that Endeavor accidentally produced the worst of the League’s lot. tongue

If Dabi is Touya, he's supposed to be even better at burninating things than "dear" ol' dad. Too bad that includes himiself — he's like a papier-mâché flame-thrower.

(yes I did watch the second Ghost Rider movie and yes I enjoyed it — don't judge me)
