ONE OF THE BEST LIVE CHAPTER RELEASES.

Katsuki flies down to Deku with no hesitation. Their flawless teamwork they’ve always had and their trust in each other, the panels were beautifully done.

Kacchan saves All Might and made up for his guilt from Kamino. No I’m not crying.

Fetus OFA gonna do something stupid I just feel it.

The amount of double spreads this chapter was insane. And no break next week either.

++ Horikoshi rewatching HR so many times that it rotted his brain into just perfecting the original draft. Never change.

This mf All Might really isn't gonna die? LMFAOOOOO. If anything, he's at least the ONE character that SHOULD die 😂😂

eh, all might surviving is kind of plot armor. Oh well what do you expect, it is a shonen after all.
imo, all might’s death is a great and powerful way to develop characters (not necessarily a big power up) . He was a big inspiration, so i think having the end of his life also be something to inspire the characters would’ve been so much more powerful.
it just feels really repetitive when pretty much the same thing happened to bakugo

We need more shonen like jjk bc nobody gets plot armour while Gege is cooking💀💀💀 fully agreed though, it would’ve made sense for all might to die here so the fact he didn’t just feels like a cop out

@kakashis_sidehoe so is it necessary to kill a character only to make MCs stand out??? Sometimes the other way around is the best narrative especially in shounens like mha.
LMAOOO jjk what's the point killing off most favourited character in background scenes, and you say Gege is cooking. Characters' deaths has to be satisfying or repleted with pensive unfulfilled desires of them, not to make way for MC to show off or power up.
Anyways it will be a sensational feeling to have All might alive when all of his students have achieved their dreams of becoming heroes, the thing which he tried hardest in his life even after loosing his quirk.

I don’t think it’s necessary but it definitely gets tiring constantly having death fake-outs and only having a couple ppl irrelevant to the plot actually die. Gran Torino was a literal doughnut and survived, Bakugo was like 0.001% away from death and somehow survived, the fact that Hawks survived is debatable but he was looking pretty crispy to me and there’s others I’m just too lazy to think rn lol I like jjk bc it makes the stakes higher. You never know who’s going to get killed and when, and u know who’s death was basically guaranteed to happen from the start or he was going to be basically left on his death bed with no use of his powers because if not the story would not have been able to progress so his death makes sense. Was it done a little abruptly? Yeah but honestly whatever the flashback scene made up for it to me. With mha though it’s basically always a guarantee major characters will survive. In this case, it’s chill all might lived cause that is pretty wholesome but at the same time I feel like things have been building up hinting at his death just for him to get saved basically by plot armour at the last minute. This is all just my opinion though some people would rather not have a lot of deaths and in a lot of cases I don’t disagree so🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

i agree. It’s really annoying when the author keeps baiting us constantly. everything last chapter implied that all might was going to do die and the author pulls a “just kidding” on us. You dont need to kill a character in order to make a good story, but it’s another thing when all you do is constantly baiting your reader.

I've actually enjoyed the last 7 chapters. After what has literally been the worst arc I've ever read where I've dropped BnHA's score to 3/10 there actually looks to be some hope for a salvageable ending. Iron Might was great and the paneling this chapter as Bakugo shot across the sky to save All Might was absolutely sensational. He already nailed a similar outline in the sequence where Bakugo was rescued in the Bakugo Rescue Arc before. Man he really has a talent for paneling it's a shame he decided to waste 50 chapters on absolute garbage before Iron Might showed up.

Only fools who thought All Might would actually die would criticize this chapter.

The chapter was good so don't get me wrong, but for fucks sake, JUST KILL ALL MIGHT ALREADY!!!

I'm tired of these dumb fakeouts, I still believe he will die because Deku desperately needs the power-up to defeat ShigaJesus but if the mangaka actually has the cojones to pussy out of this one and keep All Might alive then I will hate the mangaka and I will start kicking puppies in his name.

Who cares if the art is godlike when all we got was Bakugo flying for what was actually like half a second, lame ass manga.
If he was flying so fkng fast then All Might should've broke in half the moment Bakugo grabbed him, this shit doesn't make any sense.

"We'll win this." That's all I needed to here from the one and only revived Bakugo!!! 😍 I love it! I love this chapter. The message of this chapter is that thoughts and prayers do have energy to be transmitted to the world. This arc is actually mirroring real life in the sense of sending thoughts and prayers to far-off dangers. Horikoshi-sensei is upping the game! Through his My Hero Academia comic, he's sending a message to the readers that we're all interconnected no matter where we are in the world! Deku tagging Bakugo to save All Might is the best thing in this chapter, along with those awesome two-paged panels! They are beautifully drawn! 😁

But that would be so tropey and boring!! BNHA has always played with what tropes it upholds and what tropes it subverts, all the while being a story about hope and collective action. AM dying here (and I don't mean "dying at all"; I mean dying here, in this situation, for AFO's enjoyment) would be so fucking boring and in dissonance with the rest of the story

I get what you mean and I agree up to a point. Gran Torino should have beat it, and other characters could as well.

But I feel like AM dying here, in this particular situation, is just... very dissonant with the message of the story? Like, in BNHA, fighting the bad guys comes out of a desire to help, out of hope for a better future; killing AM the way AFO was about to (not even giving him the chance to "die a hero's death") would just lead to more desperation and rage on everyone's part. It would go against every message the series has carried since the beginning. I'm not even saying AM has to make it out of the conflict alive; but I think he needs to die a hero's death for that to work narratively.

(Also, BNHA is all about playing with what tropes it keeps and what tropes it subverts. Keeping the old mentor alive is one of those!)

And in regards to JJK - honestly the fact that characters just die left and right doesn't set the stakes for me, it just makes me feel bored and disconnect from the story. Like, why should I care abt what they do or don't do if they can just die at any time with no rhyme or reason?? There's no point to caring.

At the end of the day it's a matter of taste, I know :p Just wanted to offer my perspective

@marquinti2 The second movie. Heroes Rising. It’s the one Hori backed and only one he really worked on with the staff and during the main interview he said that the story was basically the the original ending for the series (a draft of sorts, this was 4 years ago) and claimed he would just have to do better for the ending. But if you followed his twitter at the time he went and saw it 3-5 times and drew a ton of extra material. It’s obvious he loved the concept.

The criticism on this chapter is more awful than that concert arc of this series man, when nighteye was going to die he said "the future can change" where all might would be alive so it's all hinted from that point so it's not even a percent surprising that all might wouldn't die, loved the paneling and storytelling in these recents chapters now I can hope mha can end high.

The sudden instntanious teamwork with Deku and Bakugo was pretty epic. Everyone who is upset that allmight did not die are really lacking in reading comprehension. The whole last couple chapters and especially this one take the time to explain why they need to save and protect him. Killing a character is not the only way to prove the stakes are high.

Can all might just die already? I dont know if its shounen jump or the mangaka but this is getting ridiculous. You can tell the story is trying to end on a high note and not disrespect any of the good guys with an unglamorous death, but getting torn in half is the most metal way for the man to go. We have gone far past a suitable time for all might to fulfill nighteyes vision and it could in no way be considered fridging at this point.

If only this arc hadn't been so terrible (and Bakugo didn't suck) so this could actually deliver on the emotions it's going for.

Anyway glad All Might will live. We all know he seemed destined to die from the first chapter, but it really was a lot more interesting how he survived and had to go on without powers. Killing him off now would just sour that, and I don't want this series to fumble more than it already has.

I was low-key disappointed about the prophecy being wrong...?
But I think All Might will definitely die, maybe not the horrible death but a peaceful one after everything is over. (I mean the man is already a bag of broken bones, don't be delulu my friend)
