@@jewelabysssadly as a manga reader season 6 disappointed me the most. From the direction of where the moments were in episodes to the animation when Deku was using all his smashes against shigaraki. It was still GREAT. But compared to the manga it didn’t compare
@PurposelyGood I agree that the manga ver was better, but I still think bones did a decent job with the best arc. But now it seems they are gonna do much more for the 2nd war
Sheera has it exactly right. No one is saying the villains are in the right, but their job as characters is to put a mirror up to hero society and show how it produces both the greatest heroes of all time AND the worst villains of all time. And that will become clearer and clearer as the final battle progresses.
@@xavierbaker6143if the Eren pfp below you agrees he had to go then yk it’s true lol. Destroying the whole world can’t be a “conditional” thing. If you believe Shiggy had to die then Eren absolutely had to also, beyond a shadow of a doubt
@@purplequeen833the governments/militaries made that decision. All the citizens, children, and babies had no choice to be complicit. They’re all brainwashed from birth to see Eldians as monsters (and they can turn into Titans which doesn’t help) and they quite literally have 0 opportunity to think differently. Not to mention all the Eldians outside and people who don’t hate Paradis. Eren was 120% in the wrong. I love AoT but it was really hard for me to feel sad when he died I’m ngl, I rarely feel this way for villains but it genuinely had to happen. He thought so too
@@purplequeen833Shigiraki wants to destroy society because of it’s false facade of helping everyone equally when in reality it discards outcasts like the league of villains, people with mental, physical, and emotional differences that make them freaks in normal society. We even see this through Deku and how he was shunned and mistreated as a quirkless child. The heroes are absolutely doing the right thing to stop the League from hurting innocent people but they would be hypocrites; if they only tried to put all of these people and their problems out of mind and out of sight by locking them all away so they won’t ever have to think about what caused their suffering and why it caused the villains to lash out at the world. Because if they don’t figure it out or at least try to address it, it will happen again, and again, and again until maybe society actually does completely collapse one day.
I think a lot of people miss the message of My Hero (except Shera hehe; she cooked) that having a functional society involves trying to help people even if they don't necessarily deserve it; for the sake of those who DO deserve it, AND for the sake of people not going down the same path. These villains might not deserve redemption for their crimes BUT they did deserve, as children, to have a society or family situation that didn't harm them and put them on this path, AND it's important for society to try to reach out to people because you never know who'll want to sincerely change--and defeating them or killing them doesn't really fix the underlying problem and will only make more. You can't fix crime by killing criminals if they became criminals out of hunger, or poverty; failures in the system, for example. TL;DR helping people isn't a matter of what individual people "deserve", it's a matter of making the world better because you're trying to prevent harm in the first place, rather than trying to deal with the consequences later. And in My Hero, what's important is that these kids who are about to inherit this world BELIEVE this with all their heart, and will therefore make the world better than the one that spawned such horrific villains. Because they don't see villains; they see people to help. BUT they're also smart enough not to hesitate if/when someone may do harm, to stop that harm; they're not passive and they're not stupid.
This is why I hate that the Gentle Criminal arc gets so much flak. Yes, it's slower paced than the Overhaul immediately preceding it, but what the arc said is very poignant about hero society at large. These are CHILDREN who are basically groomed *from jump* to become "Celebrity Cops" to save everyone, but those who fall through the cracks are either ignored with the assumption that a hero will help them or even ACTIVELY shunned based on how their quirks are. (I STILL wish we got acknowledgment of more than just Loud Cloud/Kurogiri from the Vigilantes spin-off because it has a lot to say on the aesthetics of heroism and Captain Celebrity's arc in Japan.) It's also not lost on me how hero society is more focused on, what is more or less super powered-policing but when it comes to social services and infrastructure, we see that it's sorely lacking, notably during the provisional license make-up exam with Bakugo and etc, when the kids' caretaker mentions that they don't have the resources for proper quirk counselling, something that should be essential since we know that quirks can biologically affect a person's mental development (see Toga's Renfield Syndrome and Twice's Identity Crisis). Shigaraki's situation is especially tragic (pre-manga spoilers) given that he was destined to fail given his home life and familial ties combo'ed with the nature of his quirk.
@@aghadlarhen9397 The Gentle arc is some of the realest stuff in this show. Dude made one mistake TRYING TO SAVE SOMEONE'S LIFE and got tossed in the trash for it.
The perfect example is Twice, he had bad luck, didn't get help and went stray. Most of them are like that, but he's the most easy to understand for people. Toga while crazy, they just shut her up, not dealing with her problems until eventually they bubbled up.
Na it’s way different lmao the whole entire world was shitting in eldians and plotted their genocide it wasn’t just Eren getting abused as an individual and then killing the whole world lmao
@purplequeen833 Zeke was there, though. They should have done Zeke's plan. Less people would have die and the Titans would have disappeared in the end because there would be no more Eldians.
nahhhhhhhhhhh,the Eldians HAD to fight back and commit atrocities cause the whole world was plotting on em,Shigaraki is just insane and wants the world to become space dust

@@emanuelrodriguez9044 and I'll give that to him, but when he just screams destroy over and over and over with no plans beyond that , that's when to me he just wants world destruction, cs what's the plan after bringing down hero society
Not sure if you know already but this season does have a New Director, and I agree this season has been great. Naomi Nakayama: she’s worked on the series since the 2nd season as a storyboard artist and animation director. And has now become the Series Director of season 7.
Sheera was Coookingg!! She definitely understands and internalizes the show exactly how Horikoshi wants us too. Glad shes hear to spread the point of views
Fr and I don’t blame ‘em. The moment I saw that in the manga I knew they weren’t gonna be able to animate all that and would have to use CGI. So I’m glad it turned out well so far.
"risky" isn't the right word i'd say. It was either gonna be CGI or constant still frames. With the amount of detail Hirokoshi puts into the Shigaraki hand panels, you'd need a movie budget (and then some) to 2d animate it.
Ah yes. The quirk doomsday theory. The idea that one day quirks will become far too powerful for the body to handle. Shigaraki is currently facing off against it. And as a result, his body is constantly changing and adapting to match the strain of handling multiple quirks. We saw in his battle with Star that his hair grew longer. In the cave he spawned hands from his body. And now here we are. Even without quirks, he has hands spewing out in every direction. It's a race against the clock. Because if all of those hands can use decay, the battle is instantly over. Deku has to make it back before Shigaraki gets his quirks back or manages to take everyone else out. I also love how the narration calls Deku a "damned nerd" because that's what Bakugo always calls him. Moving on to Toga and Ochako. Toga has constantly been told by her parents, friends and society itself to just "be normal". To just get rid of the parts of herself that were gross and fit in with everyone else. Instead of trying to help her, they tried to bury her problems. They told her she didn't belong. It also ties back in to what happened to Twice. Sure, Twice was dangerous. And that's why the Public Safety commission told Hawks to either subdue or neutralize him. But why is it that hero society only pays attention to villains AFTER they've been kicked down by society? Even when Hawks tries to convince Twice to give up, he insults his life and his friends while doing so and simply tells him to start over. Instead of trying to fix the problem, hero society is constantly either about suppression or just moving on. So Toga asks Deku and Ochako the same question. What do they want to do to her. She loves the both of them. And they both give answers that disappoint her. So she solidifies her conviction and decides to fight. Now Touya and Shoto. Dabi once again showing that him saying he doesn't care about the League is a lie. Because in the same speech expressing his disappointment about his Dad not being there, he then starts talking about the League and their problems with society. He doesn't talk about them as if their goals are different. He speaks about how all of these different convictions came together because of the failures of hero society. And he includes himself among them. "That's me. That's us." And now Touya is about to tell us the story. Of Dabi's origin.
Exactly, roshi was draculas numbers one supporter when the man decided to fuck everything up because some priests killed his wife, the same way Dracula say all humans as trash is the same way dabi, toga and shigaraki sees all hero's as trash
For Dabi, his main goal his about making Endeavor's life a living hell. Joining the League of Villians and taking down the hero society is more of a side thing. But if destroying the hero society means tormenting Endeavor, then he'll do it.
Yeah, in a way, Touya never split away from Endeavor like Shoto or anyone else did. He’s still doing everything he can to have Endeavor “see” him. It’s just in a completely different way now. It’s the classic “if you don’t respect me as a hero, then maybe you’ll respect me as a villain” thing.
@@t.j.1584Hopefully they respect the final season by putting their all into the finale, maybe get help from the movie team to make a bombastic finale to the show.
@@Robin503 Agreed 100%. Given by what we have left after this season, I think the final season will cover about 12 episodes. That along with the fact we might not have a movie next year should mean the animation will hopefully be even better than this. Hopefully they can get some of the people who worked on the movie, Yutaka Nakamura to give us some peak animated moments like he’s done plenty of times before and keep Naomi Nakayama as the director for the final season. I also think the final battle should be MHA’s final “You Say Run” ost moment. If you know you know.
12:35 That’s why I fuck with Dabi/Toya to be honest, he doesn’t use his upbringing as an excuse. He literally told Deku that he already knows that lol.
Yeah I love him for that. He is how he is because of his upbringing, but he'll be the first to admit ye could have changed but wanted revenge more so decided not too
Yes, the whole point of the villains is that society let them down and they didnt get the mental help they needed. Its very much the same for irl criminals. HOWEVER, lots of people will experience neglect and abuse growing up and not all of them go on to do crime. Its gotta be a perfect mix of nature and nurture imo to lead someone to a life of crime. We gotta take care of the problem from both ends though if we want to try to stop it. Catch it early and get kids the help they need while putting away offenders who've gone too far
Yeah I see how Sheera is seeing it. The villains didnt start that way, they were created that way by a world that turned on them. So, in their mind, they are the heroes for the outcasts
lollll sheera cooking 😭😭!!! i also have lots to say about the whole villains situation, but im just gonna stick to nice and simple ‘ur not ready fpr the rest of s7’ LOLLL
I would argue their original plan was more cruel ,they basically wanted to tie his hands with erasure and have Deku and his team jump the shit out of him 😂
Deep in the sea 💀 I'm sure they can do that deep deep@@omegashark1837 the only risk is that shigaraki has a quirk that can overcome intense pressure long enough to use decay on the volcano under the see which would be more dangerous
Well it is the whole worlds problem lol. Just because an individual suffers trauma, doesn't mean that domestic abuse, child abuse, mental health neglect and discrimination aren't societal problems. Society chooses to ignore them and when it burst into a almost impossible problem, now it gets the attention. But that is life, we only work on stuff when it affects us personally, but when it doesn't we don't care, until it gets worse.
I just got struck with the realization that Toga's entire childhood was her parents telling her to be someone other than herself, and now she's doing exactly that, in the most violent way possible. While also doing everything they told her not to be. It's a perfect storm.
@@frostbraus9527 I haven't read the manga but I can definitely see her perspective and I feel like they're going to touch on it more than they already have in the anime.
*Out if everything I expected, Toga confessing her love was definitely not one of them. I guess it makes sense for her, but still, out of everything that could have put a wrench into this plan, this definitely caught me off guard...*
To be fair dabi didn't just want to kill endeavor. He wanted him to suffer in every way imaginable. He wanted to ruin his career, public image, hero standing, family, and then kill either him, himself or the entire family. Dabi a professional hater.
But he's trying to ruin his reputation on top of killing him. Killing innocents then exposing society to the fact that Endeavor caused him to end up like that directly impacts his credibility as a hero.
@@reorulz Endeavor had no part in him killing innocent people. HE made that choice all by himself and I don't care what he says to justify himself. I love Dabi's story and he's a S tier villain, but I'm standing by what I said lol
@@HarpyLady If Endeavor doesn't have Dabi those innocent people are still alive, it was his actions that created Dabi, it was his actions that neglected him after the fact and it was his actions that continued to abused the rest of family even after Touya "died". You can say "I don't care what he says to justify himself" but that logic is exactly why the LoV are doing what they're doing.
@@reorulz I can understand why the league turned out the way they did and still believe that they should be held accountable for their actions. I agree that heroes like Endeavor are the cause of villains being born. I WANT the villains to be saved and for Deku, Ochaco, and Shoto to succeed in saving them. But you also have to understand that despite what made them all snap, the choices they made are THEIRS. Some more less than others, like Toga, whose quirk affects her mental state apparently, but the family of her victims won't necessarily care about that unfortunately. That being said, I don't want them to die if they don't have to; I advocate for them getting help they should have gotten. They're not monsters like AFO, they're products of society like you said. I just vehemently dislike how Dabi won't take accountability for his actions yet ridicules Endeavor of the same thing.
the only villain i feel bad for is kurogiri bro wanted too be a hero then was turned into a nomu and the funniest part is AFO wasnt even after him he wanted Eraser
If I'm remembering correctly, when Izuku is describing to Toga what boyfriends and girlfriends do, Ochako reacts when he says the bit about eating crepes together. There was, I don't remember if it was one of Hori's twitter sketches or chapter art or something like that, but it shows Izuku, Ochako, and I think a few others eating crepes.
What? From Horikoshi? Are you sure that you didn't confuse it with a fanart? As far as I remember the only "crepe" related that was released after that scene was the dynama minicomic.
I think also Dabi turned that way was also because Endeavor was supposed to be this great hero and he was being abused by this hero in which society held him to high regard so if that’s your hero or role model the world is seriously flawed at least in Dabi eyes
I agree with Roshi and Sheera, like yeah you have to recognize where they coming from but at a certain point they gotta die 😭🙏 but nah they can never make me not be on erens side
Roshi’s logic is extremely flawed because these villains are the way that they are is because Toga, Shigi, Dabi, etc are a byproduct of what the hero society has produced. They only got that way because they were deemed unworthy to the standards of what it is to live in the current hero society. That’s how AFO has been able to manipulate them to do his bidding and fight for his cause instead of being heroes. Like it supersedes trauma at that point especially when a society as a whole says that “you aren’t wanted” or “you aren’t don’t deserve to live” like the next person then of course if the only person that has saw any true value in you save you from that pit of despair and offers you a place where the possibility that you can finally feel accepted and feel free they are going to turn out that way. The topics that this series touches goes way deeper because it hits on discrimination, prejudice and so on and so forth. But I think the most mind boggling is that Roshi is willing to forgive Endeavor considering he literally married Rei due to him wanting to create a perfect child by any means necessary despite the trauma, mental, and physical abuse he has put them all through. If you aren’t going to subscribe to the idea of feeling empathetic then keep that same energy when other characters do the same thing because all of these characters are a representation of what is going on in their society.
The only Villian I think truly got fucked over by “hero society” was Toga cause off wrip they didn’t know how to treat her and said “just don’t use your powers”
IT TRULY HURTS MY HEART THAT YOU 3 DONT UNDERSTAND THE POINT THEIR TRYNA MAKE WITH TOGA, LIKE IT TRULY MAKES ME SAD, HONESTLY THE WAY ROSHI IS SO READY TO THROW TOGA TO THE SIDE WITHOUT AT LEAST TRYNA UNDERSTAND HER TRULY TRULY TRULY HURTS MY HEART . SAD, ID DIE ON THAT STAND< I UNDERSTAND HER EVEN IF MY FAVORITE REACTORS DONT.
Wait a minute hold on two questions 1. Was that Crust in the beginning? I thought he died? 2. where is that mushroom girl?! The one who had NO problem releasing spores into her classmates throats during a training exercise 🤨
it's not really her mentality but how her brain works because of her quirk. They explained it her quirk being actually powerful because of how huge of a deal it can be (you'll see it later) it created some kind of deviance in her brain causin her to act this way whenever she truly love someone
Alright we got the separate layered battles of the 2nd war. Seeing the team layouts was worth it combing the kids and heroes at various different locations. A great deal of matchups make perfect sense narratively and physically. But one is neither. All-Might here’s a fun fact to you. Iida is WEAK to fire and is prone to overheating! And you put him on the Dabi field team?! At least the sidekick Kido is weak to fire with a long streak of redirecting fire to be with Endeavor all these years! (But having a speedster that rivals Gran Torino is good IF he can deal with the fire) AFS body growth is just SO disturbing. This is how Garaki decided to STABILIZE the quirk stockpile so he could more effortlessly combine quirks without it causing pain to the AFO holder. So based on that we can assume AFO isn’t always the most comfortable when he combines quirks so much it expands his body with the arm made out of arms. We might be able to get some actual enlightening info on how AFO has functioned all these years. And with the ability to use the still completely unknown amount of quirks, the INSTANT quirks reenter the picture he can completely remake the battlefield in anyway he wants. AFO at max potential against Nana made a LANDSCAPE of quirks. And he’s setting the stage to be able to make it look like child’s play. Mirko might have a stockpile of new robot limbs (this girl is ACTUALLY planning to lose limbs that many times and KEEP GOING. ) but her bruising abilities just got a LOT less useful. And why WOULDN’T 2 of the most stubborn characters have personality conflict. Bakugo only respects Aizawa and Jeanist here. So GREAT time for Bakugo to Bakugo. Monoma can’t release erasure now he’s officially stuck in for as much time as he can manage. Because the next BLINK can be all they need to lose. And Jeanist says we can win without OFA! (BJ…this is the 2nd time you’ve devalued Deku as nothing but his power. In season 6 he said AFS has to have the will to overpower 8 collective willpowers…while not counting the 9th. Methinks he’s not a kid kind of person. Good thing Deku isn’t still TEETERING on the awful apathetic emotional space! Not like he just barely recovered.) And now we got the Toga field. The Nomu REALLY like exploding their bodies with shattered spiked bones it seems. Woman (yes that is what Garaki named her) from Season 6 exploded her shins, the Nomu from the jailbreak that killed Briareos exploded its gut, and now this thing! Throw in Moonfish keeping the heroes away from Toga and now it’s just Toga and her 2 loves. (I’m going to go on a limb and say Bakugo gave Present Mic a narration because that STRAIGHT UP sounds like Bakugo told Present Mic to call him a nerd. GREAT continued progress) When she confesses to Deku he has very amusing response as he panics. So at the school festival after the “Hero Too” concert, he spends the day with Eri and Mirio sure, but unseen in that episode he spends a great deal with Uraraka where they spend the day doing EXACTLY what he just described what it meant being in a relationship. Uraraka mildly panics realizing what that meant and now Tsu needs him OUT of there. Toga now that she has her answer that she is NOT the same as Uraraka stabs her and she’s trying to hallow out the love she once felt for them. The obsession is still there. And it’s plausible that Toga can still use Uraraka’s quirk. (God forbid she realizes how strong it REALLY is if she DOES get it) Deku activates Fa Jin in just 3 kicks, so his Faux 100 is easier to charge. More proof Deku is at his higher stockpile level. His Faux 100 as of this point is Mach 22.5 at a 75% level (Deku’s 100% would be 75% of All-Might’s Mach 30 level in season 1) and with the gloves that work at 20% air flow, he’s stabilizing at Mach 6. Which IS fast but when every second counts based on a BLINK, the 2nd has to check with him and see if he’s considering the stupid things. 1 being injuring himself at 100% to speed things up. His bone damage is a LOT less now so it’s not something COMPLETELY out of the question. Good thing Deku is hoping to avoid his bloody mess decisions against AFS last time. And then there’s the interesting one. Is he going to use the 2nd quirk? Deku says he wants to, and the 2nd says ABSOLUTELY NOT. That’s a final gambit. So we don’t have an answer for what it is YET but we know the 2nd considers it as stupid as blowing your skin off right before the final battle. Dabi honestly just daydreams about how Endeavor isn’t looking at him. Literally WHILE melting. And Shoto uses the weird stabilizing flame of sorts from both sides in different colors. In the manga, that shot was 2 hands of frost. He CAN use his quirk both sides however he chooses. And as I’ve said in the past because how DNA works, the ice quirk and fire quirk can’t possibly be held to any one side of the body. And he seems to have finally gotten to the point he can do it with fire and ice now at balanced levels. And he has to focus on cooling himself as Dabi literally burns the city down and is melting away. Next time, we find out what really made Dabi.
Glad ppl are agreeing with Sheera, I think ignoring the motivations of the villains and just seeing them as cardboard cutouts to knock down is the complete wrong way to look at this show, and saying oh it's cliche to have sympathetic villains or whatever, isn't an excuse for that either. I'm typing this weeks after this episode aired so we all know by now how Toya gets folded in the next episode but the solution in this story goes way further than folding people, it's about reforming and dismantling the systems of society that let them fall through the cracks, and it's also about refusing to let them fall further just because they came into the world this way in Toga and Spinners case, or were completely fucked over by bad people like Tenko or Toya. I'm not a manga reader but I can only imagine those four are all going to be redeemed somehow, even if a couple of them might die. Placing them in these matchups with the people most sympathetic to each of them is PURPOSEFUL. It's kinda crazy to think about people not even interacting with that super crucial aspect of the story considering it's been a constant thing since Stain popped up.
I think you guys misundstood the motives here are a bit. The villains do not really want to destroy the world but society and the people that made society. Cause aside Dabi they blame their positions on the neglect in a society that worships heroism. And they have points: Togas insanity only occurred because she was was told not to suck blood from birds and „to be normal“ until she broke and killed her crush. She was crying the entire time while doing it. Stain was outcasted as well because he had a blood quirk and those are seen as evil and were feared. Blood donations and judging the quirks individually in terms of allowing to use it, would have prevented all that shit. In Shiggys case he knew from the start that he was groomed but his braking point was when he wandered the streets all alone and he even recognised „if only one person, just one would have reached out, things would be different“ but instead people were all like „a hero will take care“ because they have lost any sense of responsibility for themselves and others. Also note that Shiggy actually stopped AFO from using decay in the beginning of the battle because he looked at Dabi and recognised that it would have killed everyone around him not just the hero’s. That is why AFO is like „don’t get in the way again other me“. Shiggys theme is called „I don’t kill my friends“ by the way so his destructive nature only goes against his enemies. Also also the league doesn’t view themselves as villains but really as a liberation front hence the name.
I personally am going to have to disagree with the argument “Erens situation is different” because when you really sit and think about it, how is Erens mindset any different from (let’s say for example,) Shigarakis? let me explain; BOTH Shigaraki and Eren had/has this mindset of completely annihilating the people who hurt them. in Shigarakis case, this is of course before AFO (basically) completely took over his body and mind, Shigaraki truly felt like hero society and the hero system was corrupt, resulting in him wanting ALL HEROES to die. Especially All Might, who in this case would be his main enemy. Eren is no different when it comes to this mindset. Eren truly believed the suffering of his people would end if EVERYONE ELSE were to perish, thus going through with the rumbling. (Marley being his main enemy in this case, but ultimately choosing to kill EVERYONE ELSE. see the correlation?) The only reason people may support or empathize with Eren over Shigaraki is solely due to the way the animes (in this case) were executed. In AOT, viewers (and readers) were given multiple seasons to empathize with all of Erens loses before realizing Eren was (basically) the villain the entire time. But, by the time you get to that realization, you’ve already built a strong emotional connection with Eren, so it’ll be hard to come to terms with the fact Eren wasn’t RIGHT. (this could also explain why there was so much denial circulating social media when Eren revealed his “true colors” i guess you can say.) MHA on the other hand, ALWAYS shed a dark, negative light on the villains. since day one! Shigarakis backstory could be fully pieced together very late in the show, and I say fully pieced because it’s not all revealed at once, but throughout the seasons. By the time Shigarakis tragic backstory can be understood and people can finally understand why he thinks about hero society the way he does, he’s already done too much damage to really be “forgiven”. (I’d also like to add BOTH Shoto and Shigaraki had abusive fathers, caring mothers, and heroes they looked up to as kids. I’d go as far to say Shoto was MORE abused than Shigaraki, yet you still forgave Endeavor? Why? Because he’s a hero? How is Endeavor any different, if not worse, than Shigarakis father? Endeavor also used and abused his wife for his own personal gain, and called his children useless if they weren’t born the way HE envisioned, which is pretty shitty, and honestly, irredeemable to me personally. You’ll only forgive him because he’s a hero, but you won’t sympathize for the person who was FORCED into the villain side of society by AFO (literally shown in the anime!!) and manipulated into thinking hero society is a bad thing (his father literally told him Nana Shimura abandoned them!!). Me personally, if i was Shoto and had to deal with all of that growing up and barely being a TODDLER, I’d probably end up succumbing to AFO at that age.) Anyways! yeah, eren is no different from shigaraki in terms of mindset. shigraki has done things viewers could visibly see, while eren has done things “off camera (lol)” away from the viewers, later being revealed in future seasons. this is why people argue they are different, but they really aren’t! (None of this is written to justify EITHER of them, but simply to put into perspective for those who pick and choose who to empathize with :))
Sheera dirty for using the homie Eren. Eren at least started as a hero before his real powers activated and sent him to the place he went. But he did cross all lines for what he did in the end. So I will put my head down too for trying to help them. It was dumb and Sheera was right.

I can understand to a certain extent because the whole world declared war on the island.
@@purplequeen833the governments/militaries made that decision. All the citizens, children, and babies had no choice to be complicit. They’re all brainwashed from birth to see Eldians as monsters (and they can turn into Titans which doesn’t help) and they quite literally have 0 opportunity to think differently. Not to mention all the Eldians outside and people who don’t hate Paradis. Eren was 120% in the wrong. I love AoT but it was really hard for me to feel sad when he died I’m ngl, I rarely feel this way for villains but it genuinely had to happen. He thought so too

@@purplequeen833 and the whole world has been against the villains from the start. What's the difference?
@@purplequeen833Shigiraki wants to destroy society because of it’s false facade of helping everyone equally when in reality it discards outcasts like the league of villains, people with mental, physical, and emotional differences that make them freaks in normal society. We even see this through Deku and how he was shunned and mistreated as a quirkless child. The heroes are absolutely doing the right thing to stop the League from hurting innocent people but they would be hypocrites; if they only tried to put all of these people and their problems out of mind and out of sight by locking them all away so they won’t ever have to think about what caused their suffering and why it caused the villains to lash out at the world. Because if they don’t figure it out or at least try to address it, it will happen again, and again, and again until maybe society actually does completely collapse one day.
I think a lot of people miss the message of My Hero (except Shera hehe; she cooked) that having a functional society involves trying to help people even if they don't necessarily deserve it; for the sake of those who DO deserve it, AND for the sake of people not going down the same path. These villains might not deserve redemption for their crimes BUT they did deserve, as children, to have a society or family situation that didn't harm them and put them on this path, AND it's important for society to try to reach out to people because you never know who'll want to sincerely change--and defeating them or killing them doesn't really fix the underlying problem and will only make more.
You can't fix crime by killing criminals if they became criminals out of hunger, or poverty; failures in the system, for example.
TL;DR helping people isn't a matter of what individual people "deserve", it's a matter of making the world better because you're trying to prevent harm in the first place, rather than trying to deal with the consequences later. And in My Hero, what's important is that these kids who are about to inherit this world BELIEVE this with all their heart, and will therefore make the world better than the one that spawned such horrific villains. Because they don't see villains; they see people to help. BUT they're also smart enough not to hesitate if/when someone may do harm, to stop that harm; they're not passive and they're not stupid.
This is why I hate that the Gentle Criminal arc gets so much flak. Yes, it's slower paced than the Overhaul immediately preceding it, but what the arc said is very poignant about hero society at large. These are CHILDREN who are basically groomed *from jump* to become "Celebrity Cops" to save everyone, but those who fall through the cracks are either ignored with the assumption that a hero will help them or even ACTIVELY shunned based on how their quirks are. (I STILL wish we got acknowledgment of more than just Loud Cloud/Kurogiri from the Vigilantes spin-off because it has a lot to say on the aesthetics of heroism and Captain Celebrity's arc in Japan.)
It's also not lost on me how hero society is more focused on, what is more or less super powered-policing but when it comes to social services and infrastructure, we see that it's sorely lacking, notably during the provisional license make-up exam with Bakugo and etc, when the kids' caretaker mentions that they don't have the resources for proper quirk counselling, something that should be essential since we know that quirks can biologically affect a person's mental development (see Toga's Renfield Syndrome and Twice's Identity Crisis).
Shigaraki's situation is especially tragic (pre-manga spoilers) given that he was destined to fail given his home life and familial ties combo'ed with the nature of his quirk.
@@aghadlarhen9397 The Gentle arc is some of the realest stuff in this show. Dude made one mistake TRYING TO SAVE SOMEONE'S LIFE and got tossed in the trash for it.

The perfect example is Twice, he had bad luck, didn't get help and went stray. Most of them are like that, but he's the most easy to understand for people.

Not sure if you know already but this season does have a New Director, and I agree this season has been great.
Naomi Nakayama: she’s worked on the series since the 2nd season as a storyboard artist and animation director. And has now become the Series Director of season 7.
Oh wow, never knew that🔥🔥
Sheera was Coookingg!! She definitely understands and internalizes the show exactly how Horikoshi wants us too. Glad shes hear to spread the point of views
The choice to use CGI for the fingers was real risky. I’m glad it actually turned out looking better than I expected
This was the best decision. Can you imagine having to animate all that by hand?
@@MrEdit-ic7th By HAND....S? *badumpish*
Fr and I don’t blame ‘em. The moment I saw that in the manga I knew they weren’t gonna be able to animate all that and would have to use CGI. So I’m glad it turned out well so far.
It actually turns out rly well because it's supposed to look super gross. CGI basically enhances that 😂
"risky" isn't the right word i'd say. It was either gonna be CGI or constant still frames. With the amount of detail Hirokoshi puts into the Shigaraki hand panels, you'd need a movie budget (and then some) to 2d animate it.
Ah yes. The quirk doomsday theory. The idea that one day quirks will become far too powerful for the body to handle. Shigaraki is currently facing off against it. And as a result, his body is constantly changing and adapting to match the strain of handling multiple quirks. We saw in his battle with Star that his hair grew longer. In the cave he spawned hands from his body. And now here we are. Even without quirks, he has hands spewing out in every direction. It's a race against the clock. Because if all of those hands can use decay, the battle is instantly over. Deku has to make it back before Shigaraki gets his quirks back or manages to take everyone else out. I also love how the narration calls Deku a "damned nerd" because that's what Bakugo always calls him.
Moving on to Toga and Ochako. Toga has constantly been told by her parents, friends and society itself to just "be normal". To just get rid of the parts of herself that were gross and fit in with everyone else. Instead of trying to help her, they tried to bury her problems. They told her she didn't belong. It also ties back in to what happened to Twice. Sure, Twice was dangerous. And that's why the Public Safety commission told Hawks to either subdue or neutralize him. But why is it that hero society only pays attention to villains AFTER they've been kicked down by society? Even when Hawks tries to convince Twice to give up, he insults his life and his friends while doing so and simply tells him to start over. Instead of trying to fix the problem, hero society is constantly either about suppression or just moving on. So Toga asks Deku and Ochako the same question. What do they want to do to her. She loves the both of them. And they both give answers that disappoint her. So she solidifies her conviction and decides to fight.
Now Touya and Shoto. Dabi once again showing that him saying he doesn't care about the League is a lie. Because in the same speech expressing his disappointment about his Dad not being there, he then starts talking about the League and their problems with society. He doesn't talk about them as if their goals are different. He speaks about how all of these different convictions came together because of the failures of hero society. And he includes himself among them. "That's me. That's us." And now Touya is about to tell us the story. Of Dabi's origin.

For Dabi, his main goal his about making Endeavor's life a living hell. Joining the League of Villians and taking down the hero society is more of a side thing. But if destroying the hero society means tormenting Endeavor, then he'll do it.
Spoilers:
I can’t wait till they find out that Dabi actually inherited the ice quirk.
Yeah, in a way, Touya never split away from Endeavor like Shoto or anyone else did. He’s still doing everything he can to have Endeavor “see” him. It’s just in a completely different way now. It’s the classic “if you don’t respect me as a hero, then maybe you’ll respect me as a villain” thing.
Sheera made a solid point at the end cuz Eren did the same shit for somewhat the same reasons
Season 7 has a new director Naomi Nakayama who previously worked on season 2 & 3.
Well that makes a lot more sense. Hopefully she stays on for the final season.
@@t.j.1584Hopefully they respect the final season by putting their all into the finale, maybe get help from the movie team to make a bombastic finale to the show.
@@Robin503 Agreed 100%. Given by what we have left after this season, I think the final season will cover about 12 episodes. That along with the fact we might not have a movie next year should mean the animation will hopefully be even better than this. Hopefully they can get some of the people who worked on the movie, Yutaka Nakamura to give us some peak animated moments like he’s done plenty of times before and keep Naomi Nakayama as the director for the final season. I also think the final battle should be MHA’s final “You Say Run” ost moment. If you know you know.

Yes, the whole point of the villains is that society let them down and they didnt get the mental help they needed. Its very much the same for irl criminals. HOWEVER, lots of people will experience neglect and abuse growing up and not all of them go on to do crime. Its gotta be a perfect mix of nature and nurture imo to lead someone to a life of crime. We gotta take care of the problem from both ends though if we want to try to stop it. Catch it early and get kids the help they need while putting away offenders who've gone too far
The convo at the end had me arguing behind the screen too 😂
Yeah I see how Sheera is seeing it. The villains didnt start that way, they were created that way by a world that turned on them. So, in their mind, they are the heroes for the outcasts

The villains are making their family trauma into the whole worlds problem.
That’s pretty much every villains problem
Well it is the whole worlds problem lol. Just because an individual suffers trauma, doesn't mean that domestic abuse, child abuse, mental health neglect and discrimination aren't societal problems. Society chooses to ignore them and when it burst into a almost impossible problem, now it gets the attention. But that is life, we only work on stuff when it affects us personally, but when it doesn't we don't care, until it gets worse.

*Out if everything I expected, Toga confessing her love was definitely not one of them. I guess it makes sense for her, but still, out of everything that could have put a wrench into this plan, this definitely caught me off guard...*
Sheera was spitting lowkey lol but i agree with Roshi on Dabi's part....just murk ya pops and leave the rest of us alone
To be fair dabi didn't just want to kill endeavor. He wanted him to suffer in every way imaginable. He wanted to ruin his career, public image, hero standing, family, and then kill either him, himself or the entire family. Dabi a professional hater.
But he's trying to ruin his reputation on top of killing him. Killing innocents then exposing society to the fact that Endeavor caused him to end up like that directly impacts his credibility as a hero.
@@reorulz Endeavor had no part in him killing innocent people. HE made that choice all by himself and I don't care what he says to justify himself. I love Dabi's story and he's a S tier villain, but I'm standing by what I said lol
@@HarpyLady If Endeavor doesn't have Dabi those innocent people are still alive, it was his actions that created Dabi, it was his actions that neglected him after the fact and it was his actions that continued to abused the rest of family even after Touya "died". You can say "I don't care what he says to justify himself" but that logic is exactly why the LoV are doing what they're doing.
@@reorulz I can understand why the league turned out the way they did and still believe that they should be held accountable for their actions. I agree that heroes like Endeavor are the cause of villains being born. I WANT the villains to be saved and for Deku, Ochaco, and Shoto to succeed in saving them. But you also have to understand that despite what made them all snap, the choices they made are THEIRS. Some more less than others, like Toga, whose quirk affects her mental state apparently, but the family of her victims won't necessarily care about that unfortunately.
That being said, I don't want them to die if they don't have to; I advocate for them getting help they should have gotten. They're not monsters like AFO, they're products of society like you said. I just vehemently dislike how Dabi won't take accountability for his actions yet ridicules Endeavor of the same thing.

I really love Ururaka's development in this series.
This episode was called inflation cuz the first half was recapping the season so far like it was Solo Leveling
Deku’s final quirk: Accidental rizz
I think also Dabi turned that way was also because Endeavor was supposed to be this great hero and he was being abused by this hero in which society held him to high regard so if that’s your hero or role model the world is seriously flawed at least in Dabi eyes
I agree with Roshi and Sheera, like yeah you have to recognize where they coming from but at a certain point they gotta die 😭🙏 but nah they can never make me not be on erens side
Deku be looking like that one homie that has to take one for the team during the two man 😂
13:33 PREACH SHEERA🗣️
Roshi’s logic is extremely flawed because these villains are the way that they are is because Toga, Shigi, Dabi, etc are a byproduct of what the hero society has produced. They only got that way because they were deemed unworthy to the standards of what it is to live in the current hero society. That’s how AFO has been able to manipulate them to do his bidding and fight for his cause instead of being heroes. Like it supersedes trauma at that point especially when a society as a whole says that “you aren’t wanted” or “you aren’t don’t deserve to live” like the next person then of course if the only person that has saw any true value in you save you from that pit of despair and offers you a place where the possibility that you can finally feel accepted and feel free they are going to turn out that way. The topics that this series touches goes way deeper because it hits on discrimination, prejudice and so on and so forth. But I think the most mind boggling is that Roshi is willing to forgive Endeavor considering he literally married Rei due to him wanting to create a perfect child by any means necessary despite the trauma, mental, and physical abuse he has put them all through. If you aren’t going to subscribe to the idea of feeling empathetic then keep that same energy when other characters do the same thing because all of these characters are a representation of what is going on in their society.
Toga is something else man 😭
The only Villian I think truly got fucked over by “hero society” was Toga cause off wrip they didn’t know how to treat her and said “just don’t use your powers”

I always knew Toga had a thing for Deku. It’s just that yandere mentality.
it's not really her mentality but how her brain works because of her quirk. They explained it her quirk being actually powerful because of how huge of a deal it can be (you'll see it later) it created some kind of deviance in her brain causin her to act this way whenever she truly love someone
Lupa bringing the Jinx slander to My Hero reactions, this is generational hating right here
Y'all not ready for that secret power.
Froppy just coming in to say "fu** your love story, this is a war"
Standing on business as always.
Alright we got the separate layered battles of the 2nd war.
Seeing the team layouts was worth it combing the kids and heroes at various different locations. A great deal of matchups make perfect sense narratively and physically. But one is neither. All-Might here’s a fun fact to you. Iida is WEAK to fire and is prone to overheating! And you put him on the Dabi field team?! At least the sidekick Kido is weak to fire with a long streak of redirecting fire to be with Endeavor all these years! (But having a speedster that rivals Gran Torino is good IF he can deal with the fire)
AFS body growth is just SO disturbing. This is how Garaki decided to STABILIZE the quirk stockpile so he could more effortlessly combine quirks without it causing pain to the AFO holder. So based on that we can assume AFO isn’t always the most comfortable when he combines quirks so much it expands his body with the arm made out of arms. We might be able to get some actual enlightening info on how AFO has functioned all these years. And with the ability to use the still completely unknown amount of quirks, the INSTANT quirks reenter the picture he can completely remake the battlefield in anyway he wants. AFO at max potential against Nana made a LANDSCAPE of quirks. And he’s setting the stage to be able to make it look like child’s play.
Mirko might have a stockpile of new robot limbs (this girl is ACTUALLY planning to lose limbs that many times and KEEP GOING. ) but her bruising abilities just got a LOT less useful. And why WOULDN’T 2 of the most stubborn characters have personality conflict. Bakugo only respects Aizawa and Jeanist here. So GREAT time for Bakugo to Bakugo. Monoma can’t release erasure now he’s officially stuck in for as much time as he can manage. Because the next BLINK can be all they need to lose. And Jeanist says we can win without OFA! (BJ…this is the 2nd time you’ve devalued Deku as nothing but his power. In season 6 he said AFS has to have the will to overpower 8 collective willpowers…while not counting the 9th. Methinks he’s not a kid kind of person. Good thing Deku isn’t still TEETERING on the awful apathetic emotional space! Not like he just barely recovered.)
And now we got the Toga field. The Nomu REALLY like exploding their bodies with shattered spiked bones it seems. Woman (yes that is what Garaki named her) from Season 6 exploded her shins, the Nomu from the jailbreak that killed Briareos exploded its gut, and now this thing! Throw in Moonfish keeping the heroes away from Toga and now it’s just Toga and her 2 loves. (I’m going to go on a limb and say Bakugo gave Present Mic a narration because that STRAIGHT UP sounds like Bakugo told Present Mic to call him a nerd. GREAT continued progress) When she confesses to Deku he has very amusing response as he panics. So at the school festival after the “Hero Too” concert, he spends the day with Eri and Mirio sure, but unseen in that episode he spends a great deal with Uraraka where they spend the day doing EXACTLY what he just described what it meant being in a relationship. Uraraka mildly panics realizing what that meant and now Tsu needs him OUT of there. Toga now that she has her answer that she is NOT the same as Uraraka stabs her and she’s trying to hallow out the love she once felt for them. The obsession is still there. And it’s plausible that Toga can still use Uraraka’s quirk. (God forbid she realizes how strong it REALLY is if she DOES get it)
Deku activates Fa Jin in just 3 kicks, so his Faux 100 is easier to charge. More proof Deku is at his higher stockpile level. His Faux 100 as of this point is Mach 22.5 at a 75% level (Deku’s 100% would be 75% of All-Might’s Mach 30 level in season 1) and with the gloves that work at 20% air flow, he’s stabilizing at Mach 6. Which IS fast but when every second counts based on a BLINK, the 2nd has to check with him and see if he’s considering the stupid things. 1 being injuring himself at 100% to speed things up. His bone damage is a LOT less now so it’s not something COMPLETELY out of the question. Good thing Deku is hoping to avoid his bloody mess decisions against AFS last time. And then there’s the interesting one. Is he going to use the 2nd quirk? Deku says he wants to, and the 2nd says ABSOLUTELY NOT. That’s a final gambit. So we don’t have an answer for what it is YET but we know the 2nd considers it as stupid as blowing your skin off right before the final battle.
Dabi honestly just daydreams about how Endeavor isn’t looking at him. Literally WHILE melting. And Shoto uses the weird stabilizing flame of sorts from both sides in different colors. In the manga, that shot was 2 hands of frost. He CAN use his quirk both sides however he chooses. And as I’ve said in the past because how DNA works, the ice quirk and fire quirk can’t possibly be held to any one side of the body. And he seems to have finally gotten to the point he can do it with fire and ice now at balanced levels. And he has to focus on cooling himself as Dabi literally burns the city down and is melting away.
Next time, we find out what really made Dabi.
Glad ppl are agreeing with Sheera, I think ignoring the motivations of the villains and just seeing them as cardboard cutouts to knock down is the complete wrong way to look at this show, and saying oh it's cliche to have sympathetic villains or whatever, isn't an excuse for that either. I'm typing this weeks after this episode aired so we all know by now how Toya gets folded in the next episode but the solution in this story goes way further than folding people, it's about reforming and dismantling the systems of society that let them fall through the cracks, and it's also about refusing to let them fall further just because they came into the world this way in Toga and Spinners case, or were completely fucked over by bad people like Tenko or Toya. I'm not a manga reader but I can only imagine those four are all going to be redeemed somehow, even if a couple of them might die. Placing them in these matchups with the people most sympathetic to each of them is PURPOSEFUL. It's kinda crazy to think about people not even interacting with that super crucial aspect of the story considering it's been a constant thing since Stain popped up.
Toga using that boa hancock method
LMAO 6:44 Sheera YEAH!!!!!!
Todoroki got the short end of the stick. Every other team got high level pro heroes and he just got some sidekicks.
Sheera bringing up Eren was funny af
Dabi been saving the heat for seven seasons.
Also I appreciate that y'all can hash out the villain takes in real time on cam with honest opinions.
I think you guys misundstood the motives here are a bit. The villains do not really want to destroy the world but society and the people that made society. Cause aside Dabi they blame their positions on the neglect in a society that worships heroism.
And they have points: Togas insanity only occurred because she was was told not to suck blood from birds and „to be normal“ until she broke and killed her crush. She was crying the entire time while doing it. Stain was outcasted as well because he had a blood quirk and those are seen as evil and were feared. Blood donations and judging the quirks individually in terms of allowing to use it, would have prevented all that shit.
In Shiggys case he knew from the start that he was groomed but his braking point was when he wandered the streets all alone and he even recognised „if only one person, just one would have reached out, things would be different“ but instead people were all like „a hero will take care“ because they have lost any sense of responsibility for themselves and others.
Also note that Shiggy actually stopped AFO from using decay in the beginning of the battle because he looked at Dabi and recognised that it would have killed everyone around him not just the hero’s. That is why AFO is like „don’t get in the way again other me“. Shiggys theme is called „I don’t kill my friends“ by the way so his destructive nature only goes against his enemies.
Also also the league doesn’t view themselves as villains but really as a liberation front hence the name.
i died laughing when Jinx caught a random stray from Lupa lmao he hates her bruh lmao
As manga read I can not wait for u guys to what Kohei horikoshi has been cooking up cause GAWD DAMN THIS SHIT ABOUT HEAT UP
Guys please give Dungeon Meshi another chance when you can! That anime starts slow but its legit S tier!
I personally am going to have to disagree with the argument “Erens situation is different” because when you really sit and think about it, how is Erens mindset any different from (let’s say for example,) Shigarakis? let me explain;
BOTH Shigaraki and Eren had/has this mindset of completely annihilating the people who hurt them. in Shigarakis case, this is of course before AFO (basically) completely took over his body and mind, Shigaraki truly felt like hero society and the hero system was corrupt, resulting in him wanting ALL HEROES to die. Especially All Might, who in this case would be his main enemy. Eren is no different when it comes to this mindset. Eren truly believed the suffering of his people would end if EVERYONE ELSE were to perish, thus going through with the rumbling. (Marley being his main enemy in this case, but ultimately choosing to kill EVERYONE ELSE. see the correlation?)
The only reason people may support or empathize with Eren over Shigaraki is solely due to the way the animes (in this case) were executed. In AOT, viewers (and readers) were given multiple seasons to empathize with all of Erens loses before realizing Eren was (basically) the villain the entire time. But, by the time you get to that realization, you’ve already built a strong emotional connection with Eren, so it’ll be hard to come to terms with the fact Eren wasn’t RIGHT. (this could also explain why there was so much denial circulating social media when Eren revealed his “true colors” i guess you can say.)
MHA on the other hand, ALWAYS shed a dark, negative light on the villains. since day one! Shigarakis backstory could be fully pieced together very late in the show, and I say fully pieced because it’s not all revealed at once, but throughout the seasons. By the time Shigarakis tragic backstory can be understood and people can finally understand why he thinks about hero society the way he does, he’s already done too much damage to really be “forgiven”.
(I’d also like to add BOTH Shoto and Shigaraki had abusive fathers, caring mothers, and heroes they looked up to as kids. I’d go as far to say Shoto was MORE abused than Shigaraki, yet you still forgave Endeavor? Why? Because he’s a hero? How is Endeavor any different, if not worse, than Shigarakis father? Endeavor also used and abused his wife for his own personal gain, and called his children useless if they weren’t born the way HE envisioned, which is pretty shitty, and honestly, irredeemable to me personally. You’ll only forgive him because he’s a hero, but you won’t sympathize for the person who was FORCED into the villain side of society by AFO (literally shown in the anime!!) and manipulated into thinking hero society is a bad thing (his father literally told him Nana Shimura abandoned them!!). Me personally, if i was Shoto and had to deal with all of that growing up and barely being a TODDLER, I’d probably end up succumbing to AFO at that age.)
Anyways! yeah, eren is no different from shigaraki in terms of mindset. shigraki has done things viewers could visibly see, while eren has done things “off camera (lol)” away from the viewers, later being revealed in future seasons. this is why people argue they are different, but they really aren’t!
(None of this is written to justify EITHER of them, but simply to put into perspective for those who pick and choose who to empathize with :))
Next episode is a visual with Shoto vs Dabi
The ending of the video where all of you were arguing. Ya'll about to start your own war arc.😅
Its a new director btw thats why
Sheera dirty for using the homie Eren. Eren at least started as a hero before his real powers activated and sent him to the place he went. But he did cross all lines for what he did in the end. So I will put my head down too for trying to help them. It was dumb and Sheera was right.
Sheera made a good point at the end with Eren 😂
endeavor didn't call dabi a failure. he wanted him to stop because it was killing him
