It’s our house now! It’s our house—erm—chapter now. And, what a chapter it was.

Kurogiri got captured and everything went to shit. Our favorite teleporter isn’t just a convenient mode of transportation, he’s one of All For One’s inner circle meaning he knows what the Big Boss knows, including names of allies and where to find them. Guess Kurogiri also had the League’s business credit card on him when he got caught because the rest of the League of Villains is strapped for cash. I love how they’re keeping a low profile by attacking another villain group. Smart.

We get some needed character revelation from Spinner, our POV this chapter. Turns out he wants to change the world because he’s sick of racist assholes. You and me both, buddy. Anyway, this is a huge revelation because all this could be a setup for Spinner’s loyalty to be tested. Could Spinner decide he’s better off with the Liberation Army? It’s possible, and I can see Destro Jr. trying to recruit him but in the end, I think he’s sticking with the League. If not because he probably considers his current comrades as friends, then because Shigaraki will convince him to stay. After all, there’s no reason Shiggy can’t take up the anti-hate cause. It doesn’t contradict his desire to destroy the current system and it’ll give his mission more validation. A win-win for everyone.

The title’s Go! Slidin’ Go!. I wanted to see The Crawler in the main series, damn it!

Anyone else thinks Slidin’ Go is secretly part of the Liberation Army? Just me? Okay.

Todoroki and Bakugo manhandle the thieves, who wisely tried escaping instead of fighting U.A. students I’m sure they recognized them from the U.A. Festival. They fail, but we see their leader use very powerful black market gauntlets that conveniently self destruct when in danger of being confiscated. Destro Jr’s been busy gathering battle data. No doubt he’s planning on equipping the LA with gear as well as getting data on how heroes combat their wearers. Smart.

Speaking of smart, Todoroki and Bakugo’s first official run as licensed heroes go off without a hitch. They keep the civilians safe, take out all the baddies, and return the property. Perfect score, not that anyone’s surprised. Well, maybe a little for Bakugo, but the kid’s a pro—even if he’s still an ass.

Well, Osborn mixed with Magneto. Hope Horikoshi gives him a glider.

It’s the start of a brand new arc! Of course, I’m talking about The Prison— What? Liberation Army? Eh, close enough. Hey, we’re getting more villains so I’m down with it.

Todoroki and Bakugo got their provisional licenses. Nice. Moving on.

I wanna talk about The Liberation Army and its unnamed leader, the CEO of Detnerat, a company known for making custom items for the public and businesses. Very noble work, and an issue that was touched upon in My Hero Vigilantes as well as in this chapter. Basically, quirks changed the production and innovation game because people can look like and become almost anything, resulting in manufacturers, governments, etc. trying to play catch up. Quite an interesting topic. Anyway, Destro Jr. is diving into the hero support game. Why?

My guess is Destro Jr. is using hero support as a front for building weapons/support items for the Liberation Army. And, if that’s the case, he definitely has a plan. We learn some of that at his LA HQ. Seems like we’re getting a Liberation Army/League of Villians team up! No, wait, Destro Jr. wants to destroy the league? Why? I got a couple of theories:

Sure, a safe home environment and caring older brother types are nice, but a little Zoloft wouldn’t hurt.

It’s not the quirk, it’s how you use it.

That’s the theme of this chapter. Bakugo doesn’t sugarcoat his thoughts saying One For All is basically like All For One. Makes sense because OFA helped create it, but that’s just the stockpile aspect of the quirk. The First One For All User’s original quirk was the ability to pass down quirks, meaning, Deku getting the past user’s quirks is because of him. But, why did it take so long? Is it because a person’s body had to be strong enough to handle multiple quirks? If so, that means the stockpile part given by AFO made that happen. Phew! Long story short, All For One and One For All are more alike than everyone originally thought. There. Everyone caught up? No? We’re moving on anyway.

Class A and B are having a dinner get together. Mineta is strapped in a chair and forced to watch Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Xena Warrior Princess, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Lucky Bastard. Also, we have a brief moment with Todoroki who decides its time he mastered his fire powers and texts Endeavor to teach him how to perform Flashfire. So, um, who’s gonna teach Todoroki how to master his ice half?

Hm. Shinso’s joining the Hero Course in the second semester. So, does that mean the traitor will be revealed before then?

It’s not like anyone’s getting booted out the Hero Course to make room. Sure, Shinso said it could happen, but storywise I don’t see Hori doing that. I’d be a real dick move on his part. So, no, Shinso’s taking over the traitor’s spot. Start the clock on that. Well, it’ll probably be another year at least before the students hit Year 2 but you get my drift.

Deku explained what happened honestly, nice. And, then everyone called bull shit and he was forced to… What? That didn’t happen? Oh, yeah. That’s right. Everyone just accepted that a guy with a glass cannon super strength quirk can now materialize black tentacles. Whatever. I just hope Aizawa takes Toshinori aside when they’re alone and demands he spill the beans about him, Deku, and Deku’s quirk. I swear, if Aizawa doesn’t I’ll lose all respect for him. He’s smarter than to take Deku’s excuse at face value.

Here’s a question: Who is this?

It’s not Aizawa, Toshinori (I think), or Endeavor if we’re going by his hair. The other guy looks like Present Mic so what’s going on? Who did Aizawa know back in his UA high school student days? And, why does this person matter now? Hm.
