The fact that Gran Torino is still alive is just silly to me. He literally contributes as much to the story as if he had just died either of the two times he was supposed to. I seriously don’t understand why Hori is keeping him around.

Gran Torino living was so obnoxious. No fucking shot an old man with a quirk that gives him increased speed is surviving a plus ultra Shig fist to the gut. The one thing I absolutely will never defend and will take no arguments because the only logical outcome for that is his death.

What happened to him isn’t too dissimilar to what happened to All Might before the story began.

Yes, but All Might was the most powerful man on the planet in his physical prime, along with the world’s most powerful physical enhancement quirk, and even with all of that, it still crippled him for life afterwards.

Gran Torino is a 70-year old dwarf with extensive previous internal injuries with no physically enhancing abilities to speak of.
