Mt. Lady. Last time I said you’d last only 4 pages. I was wrong and apologize for underestimating you. I would buy you lunch at your favorite restaurant to make up for it, but I’m pretty sure you’re full from all that dirt you ate when Gigantomachia tossed you aside. OOOOOOH!
Remember the days when the heroes’ surprise attack at Gunga Villa was overwhelmingly in their favor? I even read fans complaining how one-sided the raid was! Ah, yes, I remember… Man, those fans sure were dumb. How could you not guess the situation would be eventually turned around? That’s classic storytelling. Horikoshi isn’t exactly recreating the wheel here.
Alrighty. There’s a lot of smaller things I wanna talk about, but let’s hit up the biggest plot point of the chapter: Momo deciding to lead her fellow students on an impromptu mission to knock Gigantomachia the f*ck out, with gas bombs. Wait. Did Momo create gas canisters (Apparently using roofies in Japan is illegal. The prudes!)? Looks like there could be liquid in those canisters. Hm… Maybe the plan is throwing them in his mouth? It would be the sure fire way to make sure Giganto absorbs the liquid. Plus, you’re also making him eat glass and that alone is a good way to stop anyone dead in their tracks.
None of that can happen if they can’t get pass the League of Villains on Giganto’s back. Seriously, how the heck will the kids stop Spinner? He’s got a sword, damn it! And, then there’s Toga wearing a schoolgirl uniform, Mineta’s #1 weakness. He’s done. But, all joking aside, it’s gonna be tough getting pass the League as a whole. Best case scenario, all of them, including Giganto get put to sleep. And, I really doubt that’s gonna happen.
Besides, Gigantomachia doesn’t need much sleep. Back in the My Villain Academia arc, Giggy only slept for 3 hours for every 48 hours and 44 minutes he fought the LoV. I’ll laugh my butt off if the students somehow manage to succeed only for Giganto to wake up 5 minutes later. It’d be the ultimate troll move by Horikoshi.
And, what exactly is Majestic’s quirk for him to be considered to take down Giganto? I’ve got no idea, but this guy continues to be subtlety built up as one bad mamma jamma.
Should we be talking about a death flag raised on Midnight? Or, should I say fake out flag because I don’t see one of the most well-known heroes in the series being taken out but a bunch of no names.
Welcome back, Re-Destro! The highest-ranked hero at Gunga Villa, Edgeshot has got his work cut out for him. Other than aiming for Re-Destro’s prosthetic legs, I don’t see how the Ninja Hero is winning this fight.
And, look at you, Cementos! Taking on Geten all by yourself! Guess it makes sense considering rock types are strong against ice types in Pokemon. And, no one. No. One. Not even Horikoshi, ignores Game Freak.
This was a great chapter. Lot’s of stuff is happening. You can feel the chaos growing. It’s no longer a question of if the heroes will win, but how badly will they lose? This arc has kept me entertained every chapter.
What’s that you say? You think there’s a reason Dabi grabbed Skeptic? Um, maybe. Perhaps he wants Skeptic to hack something at some point? Or, maybe Dabi’s secretly a huge Gorillaz fan and thinks Skeptic can get him tickets to their next gig in Japan? Why are you asking me this? I only listen to their biggest hits. Go away.
