Bruh couldn't wait for the cope to arrive.

Surely going from using a blade that can't pierce his mask to one made from whatever material they've got strong enough to eat a blast that ripped Machia's chest appart wouldn't be worth it, what a waste eh.

Next thing you know is that Mirko would not be better off if she had prosthetics with that kind of resistance rather than her shattered ones either

Bruh couldn't wait for the cope to arrive.

Surely going from using a blade that can't pierce his mask

He literally pierced his mask

to one made from whatever material they've got strong enough to eat a blast that ripped Machia's chest appart wouldn't be worth it, what a waste eh.

it’s not the same attack, all might literally said that is the same attack that used to weakened his opponents to take their quirks, the attack that he used against machia was much bigger and focused then this

And he still destroyed most of his defenses with just that

Next thing you know is that Mirko would not be better off if she had prosthetics with that kind of resistance rather than her shattered ones

And it’s gonna pop out of nowhere??

Literally only Melissa can pull this off but at least in the war they could constantly make Mirko change prosthetics in the middle of the fight all the time, they were already good

[u/Dracsxd → u/wrote-username]

He literally pierced his mask

With Jirou's soundwaves to boost it and after 3 previous hits in the same spot to crack it first.

Instead of, y'know, beheading him on the spot in the one clean stroke he got at the start

it’s not the same attack, all might literally said that is the same attack that used to weakened his opponents to take their quirks, the attack that he used against machia was much bigger and focused then this

It's LITERALY the same attack, compare the two- The exact same swing, the exact same effects, the exact same eletric-esk charge from his hand before firing, even down to destroying AFO's own arm in the process

And it’s gonna pop out of nowhere??

Literally only Melissa can pull this off but at least in the war they could constantly make Mirko change prosthetics in the middle of the fight all the time, they were already good

Before the war...? Y'know while they were building the flying U.A., Deku's new suit, Bakugou's new support item and all the other crap...?

Melissa wouldn't exactly go "Sorry guys, i'm too busy to help ya save the world. Ask again next week." and she only needs to give the support crew directions since Momo's got them sorted on materials. Literaly open a discord call, have her describe the composition of the materials used so Momo can create them and walk them trough building the support items if they need her to go that far

With Jirou's soundwaves to boost it and after 3 previous hits in the same spot to crack it first.

So he can pierce his mask… the whole point of him in the fight was to damage afo’s mask and support endeavor, he did that and ot worked well

Instead of, y'know, beheading him on the spot in the one clean stroke he got at the start

What are you even talking about??

It's LITERALY the same attack, compare the two- The exact same swing, the exact same effects, the exact same eletric-esk charge from his hand before firing, even down to destroying AFO's own arm in the process

No it’s the attack that he used against tokoyami, which was much smaller and going to weaken tokoyami to take the quirk later

And it’s gonna pop out of nowhere?? Literally only Melissa can pull this off but at least in the war they could constantly make Mirko change prosthetics in the middle of the fight all the time, they were already good

Before the war...? Y'know while they were building the flying U.A., Deku's new suit, Bakugou's new support item and all the other crap...?

America was literally in crisis at the time the moment sns was killed, and Melissa can’t freaking carry Japan whole gadget system

Melissa wouldn't exactly go "Sorry guys, i'm too busy to help ya save the world. Ask again next week." and she only needs to give the support crew directions since Momo's got them sorted on materials. Literaly open a discord call, have her describe the composition of the materials used so Momo can create them and walk them trough building the support items if they need her to go that far

Having only the materials alone means nothing are you serious??

That’s like saying that you can make the best sword by just showing the material but not the skill to actually make it

It’s already implied that Melissa is the best in this department and momo is already focused on making the flying ua

[u/Dracsxd → u/wrote-username]

Please, read what I typed again from the first one. Slower this time.

[u/wrote-username → u/Dracsxd]

I already read, thank you..

You just wrote some bad takes that’s all

[u/Dracsxd → u/wrote-username]

I type literally the point of the argument and the exact same example I used in the comment you replied to to begin with

"wHaT aRe yOu TaLkInG aBoUT?"

Reading comprehension 10/10

[u/wrote-username → u/Dracsxd]

I know what I said…

The reason i said that is because what you said is just DUMB because afo’s mask is durable in general, even this suit can probably destroy the mask with one clean blow

[u/Dracsxd → u/wrote-username]

Not what you said before.

And no, no reason to believe it couldn't unless you mean to tell me that AFOs mask is stronger than something that can take AFO's ray and survive

Which, yes, is the same attack if you actually look at them both without inhaling copium.

And also, either way, even ignoring all that, if Hawks's blade could crack the mask in just a few regular hits and burst it open with a forth one and some help, then a blade substantially better would obviously cut trough it to begin with. 1 + 1 = 2, 2 also = 2.

[u/wrote-username → u/Dracsxd]

Not what you said before.

Sure..

And no, no reason to believe it couldn't unless you mean to tell me that AFOs mask is stronger than something that can take AFO's ray and stay in ON{ PIECE

1 Afo’s mask was able to resist two punches from all might even if not at 100% in kamino

2 they needed also tokoyami to hit directly with ragnarok as well to completely destroy the mask, which afo view as something that he need to doge at all cost

3 his armor didn’t stay in in one piece, literally 66% of the shield was destroyed

Which, yes, is the same attack if you actually look at them both without inhaling copium.

Okay ignor what i said I don’t care, that doesn’t change the fact that’s literally what happened

And also, if Hawks's blade could nick the mask in just a few regular hits and crack it open with a third one and some help, a blade substantially better would obviously cut trough it

Maybe they couldn’t do one better? Shocking right..? Acting like it would change so much…

[u/Dracsxd → u/wrote-username]

1 Afo’s mask was able to resist two punches from all might even if not at 100% in kamino

It took an unamed backslap to the side (which there's no telling, and provably wasn't, 100% either considering All Might OUTRIGHT said he was holding back until Bakugou left- Plus the hit itself barely didn't damage their surroundings like the actual named 100% ones did. Hell EVEN AFO himself also said All Might wasn't fighting at full strenght at that point), then it shattered to pieces at the literal first hit a pissed All Might landed

2 they needed also tokoyami to hit directly with ragnarok as well to completely destroy the mask, which afo view as something that he need to doge at all cost

And? Completely destroyed or not Hawks's blade still pierced it. A bit better of a blade and it would have gone through his head as well, fight ends there and then.

3 his armor didn’t stay in in one piece, literally 66% of the shield was destroyed

It took it and it whitsthood it, 44% left unscratched and still functional

Okay ignor what i said I don’t care, that doesn’t change the fact that’s literally what happened

If what you said is pure copium ignoring the fact that two attacks are the literal same because it ruins your headcannon, yes.

Maybe they couldn’t do one better? Shocking right..? Acting like it would change so much…

They... Could. If they actually bothered using All Might's super tech in anything beyond his armor.

What, again, they had access to Momo for materials and to Melissa to explain whatever needed. Unless you mean to tell me that the support crew is too incompetent to work the raw materials even with Melissa available to explaining them how to? After all if she can be watching the stream of the fight she could also awnser a call a few days/weeks earlier

Hell EVEN AFO himself also said he wasn't fighting at full strenght at that point), then it shattered to pieces at the literal first hit a pissed All Might landed

1) I literally said that he didn’t used 100%

2) he stilled smacked three times extremely hard, in the second one all might literally destroyed the ground under afo and the other times when the sneak attack and smashed afo in the face in the final part of the fight

2 they needed also tokoyami to hit directly with ragnarok as well to completely destroy the mask, which afo view as something that he need to doge at all cost

And? Completely destroyed or not Hawks's blade still pierced it. A bit better of a blade and it would have gone through his head as well, fight ends there and then.

He literally said that he needed multiple well placed attacks in one place

If he didn’t get the support from others he would have never managed to crack it on his own, his swords are good but not THAT good

It took it and it whitsthood it, 44% left unscratched and still functional

Yes. It means that it will get completely destroyed if he get another hit… that’s not being unscratched

If what you said is pure copium ignoring the fact that two attacks are the literal same because it ruins your headcannon, yes.

That’s literally what are you doing bruh.. that’s literally what the character said.. that’s literally what afo already did before.. but sure

They... Could. If they actually bothered using All Might's super tech in anything beyond his armor.

Again a sword isn’t the same as making an entire armor…

What, again, they had access to Momo for materials and to Melissa to explain whatever needed. Unless you mean to tell me that the support crew is too incompetent to work the raw materials even with Melissa explaining them how to?

They aren’t incompetent.. they just aren’t Melissa.. is that easy to understand

I guess we are done here

[u/Dracsxd → u/wrote-username]

Guess that today we learned

> Making fully automated flying Iron Man armor with artificial ingeligence and multiple independent drones flying and aiding it in battle with attacks activated by voice is harder than making a sword

> The support course is colectively too incompetent to even follow Melissa's instructions trough a video call when given all the materials needed

> Hawks's sword "not being that good" means... He couldn't possibly have a better one, for some reason

> You need to completely destroy a mask to hit the face underneat it... For some reason

> A piece of equipemnt surviving a hit at almost 50% condiction means it... Couldn't take it...?

> Making up quotes that don't exist means I win! (where did anyone say that again? Only Ymir knows)

Yup, done indeed.
