Deku landed a clean hit on Bakugou's face, he is strong enough to reduce building sized robots to scrap metal, but Bakugou somehow did not lose consciousness and managed to immobilize his behemoth strengh a second latter
Am I letting my hate for his character blind me or is itmajor case of plot armor?
Bakugou's blasts should rape Deku too, yet it didn't happen. If the author went with both of their powers properly, they wouldn't be able to have a proper fight. Because one would kill the other.
It's plot armor.
That punch should have lobbed Bakugou's head off.
I just assumed they were both holding back to non lethal levels, but for some reason Deku holded back his strengh to a level he couldn't even knock him outwith a clean hit to the jaw?
Deku used to use all his power before, and break his arm in the process
This is only 8%
>Deku landed a clean hit on Bakugou's face, he is strong enough to reduce building sized robots to scrap metal,
how to be retarded, everyone.
>comparing a full smash to a 5 percent punch which didn't even knock out stain at 8 percent
how to be retarded.
If you're implying that Bakugou can endure more than Stain, you lost your mind.
8% of building wrecking power still more than enough to decapitate a man with a punch
Bakugou took a beatdown from all might. Stain got wrecked by some kids
Stain a bitch and a shit.
Bakugou has took hits form all might and builds his own muscle as pointed out by deku when he used bakugous bombs.
>building wrecking power
do you read the manga?
8% wouldn't even be half as strong as Bakugo's ultimate
No, Bakugou is just that OP.
His physical prowess is probably top 5 among the students, and his quirk is absurd.
If All Might is merely "flexing", how did he managed to survive Bakugo's strongest explosion at point-blank range?
>and his quirk is absurd.
Holy shit is it ever. Doesn't even have the handicap of being uncontrollable, like whatever he touches with his bare hands explodes.
How the fuck can you hold back something that also destroys concrete walls? Are you saying quirks are so advanced that they can magically make the explosions destroy steel while at the same time only do first degree burns to a person?
What do you expect from a naruto clone?
>physical prowess
His quirk has never been stated to grant him extra strength or durability.
He should have been knocked the fuck out or blown a few dozen metres by the force of the attack.
That he withstands his explosions and is able to use them constantly, for movement no less, shows he's already at a super human level
see
I always just assumed that people had a certain degree of resistance to their own quirk.
Or else you'd have shit like burning yourself to death with a fire quirk or breaking your legs with a speed quirk.
You are an idiot.
Well humans in general seem tougher than the humans in our world since, eraserhead and Stain did some ninja-tier shit while they have no real power that would enhance their physical strength.
He demolished a giant robot by going 100% and breaking his arm and both his legs.
He sufficiently injured Bakugou by going 8%
that's a different kind of force that their quirks can't control.
Why does the punch touch skin if the punch was going straight for his teeth?
It's 5%
Bakugou's quirk isn't even what's dangerous about it to him. He would have killed himself long ago just from the pressure effects of explosions happening right next to him if he didn't have ridiculous durability.
This is also a picturebook.
No they don't. They are mutants and quirks are like muscles. There is no secondary powers helping them, their bodies change to adapt to their quirks.
Yea they have resistance to their quirks and similar ones probably like fire, electricity, acid and stuff. But the blast from an explosion is not like any of the above magic materializations, it's literal force so his resistance for the big ones would have to be his own body having superhuman durability. The magic heat from his quirk doesn't affect him though it seems
>Hey guys
>I can make things go boom with my hands!
>My homo-crush is Superman but his punches don't hurt me
>No, the story is ACTUALLY this retarded
Did deku got his arm fucked?
No?
Then it's not One for All at true power
>battle shonen with no structured power system
>logic
Pick one.
He pushed to 8% in that sequence, dumb poster.
As far as Deku knew it, that was a 5% punch, but it may have ended up 8% passively (and I don't dismiss it because "wills of the previous owners" effects lead to funky shit).
Breaking the robot was 100%. This was 8%,
Also, everyone gets super stats through training, Stain being one of the major offenders with his S-Rank speed.
>An actual discussion instead of shitposting
The trick must be to not properly label the thread. So the shitposters can't find it.
Bakugou's movements are better than 5% full cowl, despite him moving by explosion.
Thus his durability must be higher because that kind of movement tears at the body much more than full cowl does.
>anons are actually this retarded
I should go make a Fate thread asking why EMIYA says he can't replicate Excalibur without killing himself in UBW but he can do it no problem on Moon Cell
I always figured Bakugou had a secondary quirk that allows him to withstand the heat and recoil of his own explosions, and be stupid durable in general by extension
That electricity guy who goes full retard after use says different.
nope. you're just retarded, the discussion above answers op question
That's because he murdered him.
We now see Deku's coping in form of a dream.
It's fucking simple, Deku wasn't going whole hog. He was punching with the force comparable to a strong punch, a REALLY strong punch but a punch instead of full on, 100%, changing-the-weather-because-the-force-of-your-punch-changed-the-air-pressure One For All punch.
It's basically changing the settings of a computer from overclocked to decent. Mr. Explosion Boy is just so strong he can take a punch. Otherwise he wouldn't be a very good hero.
also stain tanked the same punch
He's an outlier. Everyone else seems to abide by this rule.
Iida's boosted kick to his ribs were a bigger impact anyway.
Deku just sucks dick, he went from absolute madman to completely useless whining bitch.
Holy shit some of you are retarded.
First, when Deku realised he went up to 8% incounsciously, he held back to 5%
Second of all, you're all really overestimating what 5% represents.
A 5% punch is just 1,35 times a normal punch, that's not à deadly hit.
Deku's just shit.
more like he went from a retard who keeps breaking his limbs to a competent hero who is finally stopping being a liability
He's still a liability, he hasn't shown a single ounce of improvement since the tournement arc, and the only time he did was guess what?
when he used 100% to beat musclefag.
Shoot style is useless. 8% is useless, there's literally no reason for All might to have chosen Deku besides his
>The only one that acted was you.
The author's completely gimped his character by trying to pace his improvement so slowly. He just looks like a fish flopping around.
He went from Suicide Attack Boy to Somewhat Strong Super, and he's building his way back up to the Suicide attack power slowly but surely, while also trying to get some fucking technique instead of relying on "I'm gonna kill you and myself."
And even then he tends to kill himself a bit during each of the big fights, like the "Bad Boyz Break Bakugo" arc or the "Go Fuck Yourself Edgelord" arc.
>useless
>formulated a plan against bakugou in their first duel to win the match, he lost the fight but not the objective
>formulated a plan when he was on a boat
>formulated a plan to save beserk tokoyami while also leading him to moonfish
>helped defeat stain
>formulated a plan to save bakugou during the hosu incident
hes far from useless
read the manga carefully before saying these baseless arguments
>He's still a liability, he hasn't shown a single ounce of improvement since the tournement arc
The fact that he can fight people now w/o having to go to the hospital and the fact that he's starting to develop his own style beyond All Might does show some major improvements though.
I mean, if he didn't improve then he wouldn't have been able to use 8% w/o harming himself.
Wrong
The issue is that the author isn't putting him in an environment that clearly defines his skills. He hasn't shown why All might picked him in a practical setting outside of the sports festival.
He hasn't
A. Shown Deku using his quirk in a skillful or practical way
or
B. Shown Deku using his knowledge and analytical skills to aide in battle.
He's either blowing his arm up, or getting dicked on, there's no inbetween.
He's never been in a single situation where he's expertly shown a glimmer of what makes him worthy of inheriting All might's mantle past the school.
He's had no practical use.
finished the sketch I posted yesterthread. Its ok if I posted it here, right?
Yes and good job man
>A. Shown Deku using his quirk in a skillful or practical way
Shoot style and full cowl user
>B. Shown Deku using his knowledge and analytical skills to aide in battle.
are you fucking retarded? go read when deku was on the fucking boat during the villain invasion during the USJ, he analysed the situation,
he's done the same shit during the stain arc and the hosu raid arc
are you sure we're reading the same manga?
A. Shown Deku using his quirk in a skillful or practical way
>B. Shown Deku using his knowledge and analytical skills to aide in battle.
Literally both those things happened in the manga. Read more carefully.
Clearly this user hasn't read the manga and is just speed reading.
I thought speedreading was a meme
>Shoot style
Useless. Couldn't even beat Bakugou with it.
>Since the school arc
He's had zero development since the school arc, did you even read my post?
Shoot style was basically a set up for something that wasn't delivered it was meant to be an interesting way for Deku to fight but we've seen nothing.
Pretty much this. While Bakugou really is tough on his own merits base on what we've seen him handle, I think most humans in the BokuHero universe are just anime physics levels of strong.
>useless
guess what user? bakugou is giving deku tips on how to improve it. it's still practical but as bakugou stated he uses too large of a swing
>He's had zero development since the school arc, did you even read my post?
I did and saying he had zero development is just pure bullshit and you know it
nope you're just spouting whatever you don't agree without anything to back your shit up
Plot armor, and fujo attention. Don't let anything fool you. Bakugou should had lost.
This entire thread is filled to the brim with retards
How long can this paper tiger survive after the 2nd season of the anime ended?
>Character is paced to have slow development
>School arc displays he's gutsy yet intelligent
>Tournament arc he sort of shits the bed but goes out of his way to help Todo
>Hosu arc he discovers full cowl but can't put it to any real use, fucks up against stain and gets paralyzed.
>Camping trip arc literally nothing happens, he just goes straight back to kamikaze deku.
What am I missing? you say Bakufag is helping him improve Shoot style but how does that change the fact that he hasn't aquired a single useful skill all on his own?
It's become less about this potential batman getting super powers, and more about this random Otaku getting chosen because he's the protagonist?
This would have been fine if they set it up like this in the beginning but it's been established and hammered in that a normal person can't be a hero.
>Bakugou should've lost
>Bakugou is the one who's been training for a decade to be a hero, and has worked on perfecting his fighting for years
>Deku has trained for about a year, had his powers for four months and has only started doing things that weren't suicidal about a month ago
Bakugou worked harder and understands how to fight, Deku has more potential but needs to learn.
you missed the exam arc where he passed, it was during when todoroki and inasa went full retard.
also >batman
go read capeshit if you want batman tier asspulls
>thread
>Strawman
Guess we're done here.
So why did all might choose Deku? Shouldn't he choose the person who
Worked harder.
Has a better quirk.
And has the drive to be number 1?
I guess we are since you're one of those anons who think deku is bruce wayne since you said that deku is a potential batman,
don't make me laugh, if you want a batman go read boku no hero academia illegals.
I was making a comparison of a character that has no super powers, but was set up as being someone with the intelligence and analytical skills to be a hero.
Deku was literally set up this way with his book, and if you weren't such a newfag, the old threads played around with the meme.
Of course he's not batman, batman went through years of grueling training.
But Deku hasn't shown any real reason why he was chosen in the latest chapters. He's development has basically been lopsided. A lot of half-victories that don't really matter.
Yes, please, leave.
Because Bakugou was a pompous little shit who was too arrogant to be trusted with the responsibility that All-Might was giving to Deku. That, and Deku development into a worthy hero coincided with Bakugou slowly learning that he wasn't #1 and that his powers only gives him an edge when he actually takes the time to not barrel into everything head-on.
Also the story makes it a fucking POINT to constantly compare Deku to young All might and how he's fucking garbage compared to him.
All Might himself didn't have a Quirk before One for All, clearly he wasn't going pure minmaxer like Endeavor.
The entire fucking manga is paradoxical(retarded) when it comes to quirks.
>People shouldn't use their quirks irresponsibly and shit
>Tournament arc "Feel free to use your quirks to your heart's content, recovery girl is here so she's going to fix you up"
RECOVERY GIRL CAN'T DO SHIT IF MINA MELTS YOUR FACE OFF, OR IF NAVAL LASER BLASTS A HOLE THROUGH YOU
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
The entire manga is set up like this, it's fucking stupid.
>I was making a comparison of a character that has no super powers, but was set up as being someone with the intelligence and analytical skills to be a hero.
>Deku was literally set up this way with his book, and if you weren't such a newfag, the old threads played around with the meme.
The only reason it was set up like that because it's been stated that he's a hero otaku faggot. The book only really helped was his analytical skills.
you mean the threads with the china bro? the ones where threads weren't as cancerous and wasn't filled to the brim with retards? I miss those days.
I want to go back
So you're basically mad that Deku doesn't automatically learn a thing and proceed to curbstomp everything in his path like a discount Naruto or Monkey D. Luffy?
Listen friend, nobody who is a student is supposed to deal with actual villains, yet Deku has managed to outmaneuver professional criminals on multiple occasions just long enough for the actual heroes to show up and clean house.
We saw this in the first villain arc, we saw this in the arc where they retrieved Bakugou, and we saw this during the recent exam arc. He's not going to start solo'ing every major fight when he's only just begun to understand how his powers work and if you go out of way to ignore the improvements he's made since the early chapters, of course it's going to look as though he's making no progress.
Take off the blinders and reread the manga if you don't believe me.
Clearly that laser is from the the Punch Dimension.
As for Acid, she used it to slipslide everywhere instead; there was zero chance of anything getting melted.
>People shouldn't use their quirks irresponsibly and shit
you know and I know that only counts for when using quirks in public you faggot
Thing is, neither Mina or Naval Laser have actually shown their powers being used offensively and even if they were, neither are the type to use them at full blast with the intent to kill people.
In fact, Bakugou using his limit break on Deku early on was treated very seriously since there was a greater chance of injury if Deku didn't find a way to avoid it in time.
>naval laser
Fucking lasers man, they are always the most inconsistent power in any fiction.
You will see the character often make holes through walls melt/cut metal with it etc., but when they are fighting actual people, they would be simply knocked out by it, they wouldn't even get burned or anything.
IT'S A FUCKING LASER!!!!!!!
why are there retards popping up in here
have you forgotten that mina can changer her liqud to slippery goop to corrosive acid? I mean during the calvary battle they used it in conjunction with sero's quirk to slide on it.
tl:dr read the fucking manga
This is the only part in the manga I actually hate, I hope studio bones find someway to make it less retarded
what do you mean
it's just ledouche without his trip.
it's went deku suddenly snaps out of shinsous mind control because his quirk subconsciously controlled him.
it left a bad taste in my mouth, I would've been fine with it if it was forshadowed but nope
who cares
She's the same as always though?
I agree it's minor but it just left a bad taste in my mouth,
thats all.
he made her eyes better in the recent chapter. I think he made them a little less ovaly and darker on the top for the eyelashes.
l'm fine with the outcome of the fight as it was too soon for the mc to be above the talented asshole rival
the way the fight was brought up was complete horseshit though and the rivalry itself sucks dick
user you sure love saying dick alot
True, and most people think hand grenades cause a fiery explosion when they detonate as well.
Most people don't know that pressure will liquefy their insides, leaving the outside fine, if just close enough to the blast without proper cover
Bakugou should ditch those whatever-the-fuck explosion tail from the back of his head and his costume would look a 100% better.
Those grenade arms already screams EXPLOSION enough.
Deku's seems too plain in comparison though.
A simple hot-blooded bandana or a flowing scarf rider style would improve him a lot.
Good thing he ditched that stupid ass helmet though.
It could be plot armor.
But it could be that he's strong enough to endure it, as he's as capable of being All Might as Deku.
