Chapter 358: The Man Who Improved Just a Little
The chapter begins with Shigaraki surfing on the millions of fingers and hands that are coming out of him.
He asks if the heroes will just keep running away and we see Suneater getting hit hard by one of the hands.
Nejire shouts his name, but then immediately releases a wave to block the attack coming her way.
Best Jeanist is also surfing on one of his wires and says that everyone needs to keep moving because if they stop for even 1 second they will be swallowed.
They need to find Shigaraki's body as fast as possible.
Edgeshot uses one of his ninpous to bypass a huge mass of fingers and destroy it.
He says he still doesn't believe that this is all just a function of Shigaraki's body, without the influence of any quirk.
This is when Tomura/AFO begins a monologue (the pronoun used is "boku", which implies that AFO is in control).
He says that as the All for One quirk stabilizes in Tomura's body, the other multiple quirk contained within it also begin to adapt to this new environment, causing the body to take on a more suitable form.
This body and this power then become things over which All for One has complete control.
He then says that having control over something is ideal, that the rest of the world is falling apart because the elements that make it up are losing its established shape and becoming more confusing as time goes on.
Differences that are too big lead to a lack of understanding, and this lack of understanding results in fear and rejection.
As he says this, it zooms in Bakugou's face.
Therefore, the solution is to let All for One dominate everything.
In the world he will create, all people will be equally exploited, so in a way it's the closest thing to the peaceful world the heroes want.
Bakugou is furious that he doesn't know if it's All for One or Shigaraki speaking, but that regardless of who it is, he can't stand to hear those two talk since Kamino.
All this time running was enough to prepare the equipment that the support course made for him: Heavy-Mobile-Compact Artillery: Strafing Panzer.
As the name suggests, several guns come out of Bakugou's back and he starts shooting wildly, saying that he and the other heroes will obliterate his body.
Bakugou starts thinking about everyone who is giving it their all at this point.
Monoma and Aizawa are using Erasure to seal out Shigaraki's quirks, Kaminari and the others are keeping the arena running, and Yaoyorozu and co.
are making sure the arena floor is always there.
He then remembers the words of All for One, "lack of understanding result in fear and rejection," as he thinks back to the time Midoriya saved him from the sludge villain.
He says that he accepted the differences, his own ignorance, and his fear long ago.
All of this was necessary for him to take the next step, which was only possible because he knows a bunch of guys that are always moving forward, no matter how difficult or how long it takes.
He calls Tomura/AFO a nutsack of fingers and says that all this talk is unnecessary.
Best Jeanist is very impressed and calls him by his hero name.
The chapter closes with Bakugou getting close to Shigaraki and starting to use his newest move: Howitzer Impact Cluster!

Bit of a step down from last week though.
Character development stuff is fine, but this fight feels like it may just end up being stagnant because we know that Deku is going to be the one to beat Shigaraki.
Sort of limits the amount of excitement generated by other characters trying and ultimately failing to beat Shigaraki. And we know that a bunch of these characters aren't going to die.

Yep it’s only stalling before Deku arrives to fight him.
I would have preferred to see Deku vs the new guys coming
Mirio vs Overhaul was cool
Shit

so another Overhaul fight 2.0
Mirio (Bakugo) stalls while the MC (Deku) swoops in to 1v1 beat the main villain

Yeah, I feel like this fight is in a weird place. Its got fine enough stuff for Bakugo, but no one is expecting or thinks its at all possible for Bakugo to beat Shigaraki.
Probably yeah. Hopefully with higher stakes though.

I think the most analogous comparison would be with the mutant population, but really that could apply to any marginalized group.
The series has examined how having a different type of quirk or being quirkless does effect peoples self perception, but I feel like it maybe could have been more explicit in relating it to actual real world comparisons. Quirks are a good fantasy thing to measure discrimination, but I don't think its an actual replacement for more direct forms of discrimination. It feels really quite vague.

I completely forgot that Toga was a thing..Shonen still got the "we have no idea how to do romance".
Gotta love it.
I find it funny that MHA is a series with so much shipping when the series itself seems nearly allergic to actually following through or highlighting romance at all. The romantic relationships in the series are either suggested, or intentionally underplayed.

Yeah. It is sort of funny to me considering MHA is also a "school" series, which in Japan, is famously the setting of a lot of romance anime. But even in comparison to shonen series 30 years ago, it really doesn't have much in the way of romance at all even though it has the most ideal setting for it.
Speaking of shippers, I do want either Kaminari or Jiro to kick the bucket just to piss them off lol. Especially since thats likely to be one of the few "end of series" ships that has potential to actually happen.
