Amazing panels and art from Horigoatshi but you can tell he really wants to wrap up the series soon. After all these years of build up and development, it feels a little sudden and underwhelming with the fight seemingly being over already.
But what a grand finale too! Very powerful and beautiful, truly emotional and impactful too imo. I did expect a longer fight considering who is involved but I'm glad to see it happen regardless after all this time too and I'm still satisfied.
Funnily enough, the direction Hori has taken Shoto in with his abilities, I expected to happen to Dabi. "Cold fires/freezing hell" or something like that, like a ghost (funny I should say that lmao) or so?
This is such a cool concept (pun not intended) and it fits perfectly for SHOOOOOOTOOOOOOO who is resembling Endeavour here with that new state he's created for himself!
I've not watched the anime since the OH arc but I really hope they do this fight justice especially with such spectacular visuals and attacks on display! Also interested to see what Hori is gonna do with Dabi here and I really hope Toga gets a badass fight and finale to her story arc too. I really want to see him throwback to her impersonating Uraraka and killing Curious using her gravity powers too.
Having Uraraka find out (she doesn't know yet right?) and I wish we could have seen more of Toga stealing others powers after impersonating them too. Toga could have been the Mystique of MHA and caused so much chaos in the MHA word, especially politicially/for society itself with her powers potentially, without even including the quirk mimicking she can do now.
Feeling bittersweet that MHA may be ending this year or by next year at the most? But I'm glad we finally got to the actual Shoto vs Dabi fight, although I am feeling the lack of Endeavours involvement here too. But I'm still happy with how Hori is handling this and interested to see where this goes, should make for some very interesting scenes with Endeavour and Shoto later.
I also wish Geten was related to Rei after resembling her and having an ice quirk but maybe Hori changed his mind, dropped a potential plot point there? I also wanted "Dabi" to meet Rei, to reunite with his mother and see how that wuld play out too.
Also LMAO:
