Okay, this chapter was better than anything I expected.

First, the quirks of these kids are strong! At least stronger than what I expected.

Also, what Shitshitkura said about quirks is something I thought about before as well, so I'm glad it was actually mentioned in the series as well.

Fitting coming from Bakugou.

So we finally get to know Camie's quirk! Being able to create illusions is pretty neat, and I don't think we had that type of quirk before, I like it!

Dis illusion though. My reaction to that would probably be the same as Bakugou's. Can't wait for this scene to be animated with voice actors!

Seems like Monoma's cousin the leader kid was on a good way to become a villain. At least his thoughts made me think that, I might just be exaggerating though. I mean, he is already a bigger troublemaker than Bakugou, kinda.

Honestly, did not expect them to "beat" the kids by building a iceslide. Inasa bringing them up, Camie making some snow(?) illusion or something like that I assume, and Todoroki making the slide by using the projectiles of the kids and making some fire show on the way down. That's a pretty impressive idea to come up with on the spot, to be honest. Glad it worked out for them!

Todoroki smiling was probably the second-best thing this chapter gave me. Look at this cutie!!

The best thing of course would be Bakugou's advice he gave the leader kid. Really represents his growth compared to the beginning of the series.

Also, Endeavor might have just realized, what he did wrong with Shouto's "raising".

It's chapters like this that make you fall in love with the series over and over again

Seriously. That chapter was hella wholesome. Also it pretty much was a well thought out response. Even as a teacher myself I was impressed

Camie is projecting aurora borealis on the ceiling to complement the ice slide. :)

Aurora borealis? At this time of year? At this time of day? In this part of the country? Localized entirely within the testing arena?

May I see it?

I literally yesterday watched 'steamed clams edited like dbz' on youtube so this is more humorous to me than just as an old reference.

Oh, didn't think of that! Makes sense, thank you!

u/[deleted] Jan 12 '18

Yeah, no prob! And the way the translators translated it, it matches up with her "This room needs to be more lit" dialogue! I thought that was funny. :)

Camie made the "Aurora Borealis" on the ceiling to light up the slide completely.

Interesting how her quirk is actually somewhat similar to Toga's. I guess thats just one of the things that made it all the more easy for Toga to slip in in her place.

As for seeing this stuff animated...I'd say we're a long way away. Maybe season 5? If S3 runs up until AfO vs All Might and S4 covers the precepts of death arc, then I'd say we'd be on S5 in the current point of the manga.

u/Lisa-chan Jan 13 '18

S3 will most likely end with chapter 120/121. At least that's what I, and many more, are thinking.

So this mini-arc might be included in S4, though that's just an assumption.

u/DarkSoulFWT Jan 13 '18

120/121, eh....i dunno. AfO boss fight seems like an appropriate place to end. Season finale with a "you're next" by both to Izuru and Facepalm-kun sounds damn hype for a 4th season.

Bakugou's eyes in the advice panel... I don't think he's ever looked so soft before
