When I’m With My Friends, I’m Never A Clone [My Hero Academia 376]

Kurogiri’s getting the band back together.

Team Gunga Mountain’s in deep doo-doo. All For One, Dabi, and Toga/Twice, that’s quite the party. Here’s an idea AFO: Kill every hero there except Endeavor. Leave him for Dabi THEN head for Tomura. Yeah, you’re on a time limit, but that won’t matter if Deku’s backup is dead.

Also, how come you never took a copy of Kurogiri’s warp quirk for yourself? Seriously? It’s one of the best quirks you can have. I think I found a plothole, Y’All. Don’t tell Horikoshi!

Follow The Lucci [One Piece 1070]

Wait a minute! I just realized why Oda gave Luffy toon force.

He’s made of rubber and most cartoons way, wayyyy back in the day had that rubber hose effect. You know? How all the characters were very malleable (Think the Cuphead game for all you young ‘ums out there.)? They could stretch, get smashed, and alter their bodies in crazy ways… almost like they were made of rubber. Brillant, Oda! You get an extra scoop of ice cream for dessert!

Interesting how only Zoan fruits are artificially created. Guess we don’t have to worry about artificial Logias popping up. But the Seraphim having Green Blood brings into question what S-Hawk’s devil fruit power is. Mr. 1’s dice-dice fruit comes to mind. But maybe Oda will throw us a curve ball. Since S-Hawk & Mihawk both have superoffensive capabilities, a defensive devil fruit works best. …Jozu’s diamond devil fruit? That’d be cool. Let’s go with that.

The Big Bang Theory reboot looks good

S-Snake using the mero-mero devil fruit. That was…interesting. But, to be fair, Franky went all heart eyes for Dr. Vegapunk, so the World Government agents doing the same for S-Snake could signal they think she’s cute and that was enough for the mero to do its thing. Hey! At least S-Snake isn’t wearing “combat gear”.

Bad Kitty [One Piece 1069]

This could be Luffy’s final zoan fight.

Not counting Blackbeard if he’s got a zoan now, of course. It’s awakened zoan VS awakened zoan. Wasn’t sure if Rob Lucci would be a worthy opponent against Luffy, but it was stated long ago that he’s a fighting genius. That plus mastering his devil fruit sealed the deal. Plus, it’s a way for Luffy to gain more experience fighting in Gear 5 before his inevitable fight against Blackbeard. And let’s not forget Luffy VS Lucci allows OG Dr. Vegapunk to explain devil fruits to the Straw Hat Crew, specifically, the “Gum-Gum” fruit. Luffy doesn’t care, but it’s nice his crew knows how special their captain’s devil fruit is.

Devil fruits are born through hope? They’re people’s dreams realized? What are you smokin’, Dr. Vegapunk? You know you’re not allowed to prescribe cannabis to yourself, right? I was definitely expecting a more science-fiction explanation of devil fruits. But, I’m sure there’ s more to the story. We’re probably supposed to be confused until Oda drops more info bombs. Fine. I can wait.

Did the aura of their awakened devil fruits materialize into a smokey substance? Or is it just body odor?

Poor Sentomaru. His navy career’s over, but I don’t think he’s dying.

Twice The Drama [My Hero Academia]

*YAWN!* Himiko Toga’s a “villain” now. Whatever, Horikoshi.

Toga’s been a villain from the very start of the manga. She’s just now being more strategic.

I figured Horikoshi would give us a flashback explaining what happened at the end of the last chapter, but I didn’t expect this chapter to be so boring. Yes, I’m bored. It’s Toga’s fated fight against Ochako and I’m bored. We barely saw Toga and Team Ochako fight on Okuto Island. I guess it doesn’t matter since nothing interesting happened except Toga drinking Twice’s blood. This is the final arc, Y’all. Why is this boring?

As opposed to being only a part-time villain doing minor part-time villain things like murder and terrorism

Okay, so, All For One, Dabi and Toga/Twice are all on the same battlefield. How will Endeavor and Hawks get out of this mess? Two possibilities:

CP0 Open Up! [One Piece 1068]

No way is Rob Lucci this arc’s chief antagonist.

More developments must be happening. Not saying Lucci isn’t stronger than he was in the Enies Lobby arc, but so is Luffy. Lucci’s not beating the Straw Hat captain at anything other than tic-tac-toe anytime soon. Maybe Sentomaru’s the main antagonist? He’s a marine officer now. His loyalties may side with the Navy. And with the Vegapunks giving him control of the Seraphim, he’d have the perfect opportunity to take out most of the science eggheads. Plus, it’d give the Straw Hats opponents to fight. So, yeah, put me down for Sentomaru betraying the Vegapunks.

Nice legs, Lucci. Who’s your mother? Tina Turner?

I’m GLaDOS He’s Back [My Hero Academia 374]

Toga finally did it.

She drank Twice’s blood. One Twice is Toga and the other Twice is a Twice copy. Got it? Good. But can Toga use Twice’s quirk as well as the original? Well, so far, so good, I’d say. But there has to be a time limit on how long she can keep that form. Depending on what she does (Make only Twice copies? League of Villian copies?), Toga can cause some serious damage in a short amount of time.

Can’t forget about Kurogiri. Looks like he’s about to wrap Team Aizawa away from U.A., giving All For Shigaraki the opportunity hand Deku his ass. Uh-oh! I might just start caring about this fight.

Welcome back, Twice! Do I have to return the laptop you left me in your will?
