----------------------------------------
these are the kind of chapters which make this series so good....mr.compress really was the robinhood but was misunderstood as a villian...even tho the LOV/PLF members are doing wrong things but their backstories really drives their action to justice somewhat. Mr.Compress was one of those characters whose backstory i was really interested in. Heroes are really in a bad shape, the majority of top 10 heroes are out of commision. Bakugo,Deku, are out of commision as well and Shoto is Jet-burned....another scar on his body....I am really interested in the final act/show of Mr.Compress...awaiting for the next chapter and it better be good.

I really really liked the chapter, in fact it has everything to make it a great one.

But I would have really loved if we knew a bit more about Compress beforehand, you know, not about his origins, but about his personnality and his relationship to the other members, basically what made Twice an incredible character and his death absolutly devasting (we did knew Twice's origins, but he was very likable even without that).

Also it's very cool to finally mention Harima Oji in the story, tho he might never be actually relevant again.

I'm talking as if he's already dead but maybe it's just a bait and switch (not like he did that with Bakugo 9 chapters ago), but it'd be a shame that the first and honestly only memorable moment the character had is immediatly followed by his death. Also, him revealing his face after hiding it for the entire series while being a magician would be a really nice way to go...

Edit : The official release shows that Hori is self aware about the way he handled Compress throught the whole story and it does makes this moment really cool. It doesn't really change the lack of emotionnal impact, but it somehow justifies it.

I would like to say Todoroki is out of commission for all that burn, but nah he's definitely going to get up again, I'm gonna be genuinely surprised if he doesn't. Bakugou did, why wouldn't he? Not enough willpower? He's fighiting the brother he thought was dead for years, how could he not have enough willpower in that situation?

I can say I'm happy for the guy getting the spotlight because he's a magician and magicians are cool, but yeah he took his sweet time. The closest he got to show personality besides his whole mage image was when he took the arm of overhaul as payback.

Yeah, i thought he would compress himself bcoz he couldn't touch the rope only his butt, but that didn't happen. And then he seemed to be escaping but they why stop. I just can't follow the action in any manga, damn!

Compress had no depth before. If you want chapters like this to have any kind of large impact you have to give us some sort of attachment to a character first. No matter how slight.

The villains are the only ones with actual stakes LOL. While Compress isn’t as fleshed out as Twice was he’s still a likable villain and he’s more heroic than fucking Deku who fucking got Bakugo stabbed LOL. I’m glad Mirio returning hasn’t affected the villains chances of winning.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who has trouble following some of these panels at times lol, there are times where I'll just stare at a panel trying to figure out what's going on but then I'll just give up and be like "yeah I'll just wait for the anime to eventually get here." Makes me even more appreciative of the people who work on the anime who have to figure out what's happening and then bring it to life haha.

I can't believe I'm saying this again but please wait for the offical release before complaining about the art. I'm not even saying Hori's art is alway clear, sometimes even with the officials I have trouble figuring out what's going on and he has some issues, but at least I'm not making my judgement based off of shitty scans that amplify any problem that might be there.

So are we suppose to feel anything for the reveal? Feels like it was thrown in to make Mr. Compress a more interesting character last minute because Hori failed to do so in the last 200+ chapter. "Oh look he's related to this one guy that was mentioned once!" Yawn.

I'm just bored now.

A character that has had like 2 lines in the entire series now has an entire chapter where we should suddenly care? Nah.

Oh yay, yet ANOTHER surprise turn of events. How does anyone think this is good at 5his point? Villains get the upper hand, heroes get the upper hand, villains get the upper hand, heroes get the upper hand and on and on and on and on we go.

If Shigaraki manages to escape this situation, I'm gonna drop the manga. They've invested too much into this for him to simply escape now, it would make all of the chapters in this arc pointless. If they capture Shigaraki and the rest escape, fair enough but Shigaraki cannot be allowed to escape.

If Shigaraki does escape, the heroes will never beat him in any sort of believable way.

This chapter was def underwhelming but it really pisses me off how the villains sacrifice so much for the sake of success. The villains are much easier to root for and the chemistry between them is really fun to watch. Literally Twice fucking dead due to a stab wound and Compress is obv gonna die due to half his torso missing but the heroes LOL let me get to them rn. Gran Torino while he should be dead rn he still will die with a Nighteye send off, Crust (who fucking cares but his sacrifice was heroic), X-Less who cares, Midnight def is dead, the washing machine guy might be dead, the pussycats most likely dead and that’s it. Twices death to this day is still the only impactful and the only death that I cared for. But seriously another villain has to die for the villains to escape yet no sacrifices are to be made by the heroes besides Mirio (who got his quirk back 100 chapters afterwards but if he dies I will be happy), Aizawa cutting off his leg, all mights retirement, Bakugo saving Deku (obv won’t die cuz the backlash would be immense and in Shonen u can’t kill off ur most popular character or really an character of importance for that matter. If I was going to give my biggest complaints with this arc it would be:
1. Mirio’s return like I said one of the only character who sacrificed anything and it’s not that he returned but the execution behind it/Eri tho at least she has a cool down period and if heroes are gonna die way before her quirks restores or if somebody loses a limb long before it returns cool.
2. Heroes are not dying besides a few, and the substitute for that is “critically injured”
3. Dragging

Honestly between this and JJK don’t know which one is shooting itself in the foot more.

I've always liked Compress and was interested in Oji Harima since his first mention in the series, so I'm cool with this chapter. I agree that it doesn't really land emotionally since Compress hasn't gotten the time development as other villains like Twice but I liked it well enough. Am glad this arc seems to be wrapping up though, this is possibly my least favourite arc in the series.

LOV members care for each other ;( it's impossible not to care for them. I feel bad for them.. Dabi's problem is more on personal though, but others is society problem. If Stain is with them.. maybe they can change the MHA world. AFO just using them for his own benefit ;(

Just when I thought things could go smoothly now that Mirio has arrived. But of course, I wouldn't put it past the league of villains not having something up their sleeve.

Mr. Compress looks pretty handsome btw!

Yo, did compress just compress his ass cheeks, that's wild.

Great chapter though, and it's interesting to see some background on Compress with his Robin Hood-esque lineage. He's probably going to die with that gaping hole in his side but, he's definitely going to put on a show.

Oh boy, is Shiggy going to wake up in front of Mirio, let's fucking go.

I guess Mr Compress compressed or tore (?) a piece of this flesh to add slack to the threads that were binding him, so he could slip his arm out and compress Shiggy and Spinner to free them from their threads. Then he fully broke free from the threads by running (?) and once fully free he called Dabi over to him and uncompressed Shiggy and Spinner.

Mirio is zoning in on them so I dunno what his plan is now that he’s in no fighting shape, and Shiggy and Spinner are unconscious. I guess Dabi is gonna hold Mirio off while maybe Compress attempts to wake Shiggy up?

Face it, this whole arc has been really underwhelming. A bunch of """reveals""" that either weren't really reveals or not important enough for people to care.

after reading all the above comments i would say that this time the fandom is right. Why can't people see the bonding of LoV members? They all were a group of deviants but also have their convictions, they love and have mutual respect for each other. They were shunned, misunderstood, used, abused by the hero society which was supposed to be accepting and to be working for the people. I know that there are faults in the justice system but can be solved and the method of villains are also wrong but somehow the villain's seem to be in the right. Each of the LoV members backstory represents only one persons suffering, there could have been many people been exploited or be in any danger and seeking out for heroes but to no avail. Just like heroes trusting their dreams to the no.1 hero, the villains are also doing the same, sacrificing themselves because they know that their no.1 will bring a change not only for themselves but also for people of their kind. Dabi's past shows the dirty secret of "Quirk Marriages" and the current no.1 hero, Compress's past show the dirty secret of politicians, Toga's and Spinner's past shows the prejudiced thinking of the society which was laid down by the Hero society, Twice's past is just so heart breaking. Shigaraki's past is a sum of the members past. The only thing which i didn't like in the MVA arc is that Compress and Dabi's past were never shown but now I am content that they also had just reasons to change the world. Dabi's wish of having a family and being loved as a son even if he didn't inherited the ice quirk, Toga's and Spinner's wish of living in a world where they are accepted, Twice's wish of living in a world where he can trust others and in return they trust him are only wishes which the Heroes won't grant because they have been categorized as villains and we have been taught that villains are bad.

Mr Compress really stole the show with his intricate and ultimately fatal escape plan as well as that unexpected yet much appreciated face reveal.

If he's gonna end up dying to save his pals, I guess that he might as well show the world all he's got. His infamous ancestor may be a Robin Hood figure but what he's doing isn't exactly helping the poor, is it?

More than half of the top heroes are out of commission. So many students are severely beaten up.

Mr Compress sacrificed himself for the League. His sacrifice saved them from getting captured.

Ngl I thought Mr Compress would be a bit older. But he looks pretty darn good.
