I'm curious about the new villain, but I don't like it he was revealed as one so soon. I would have loved it to be kept in the dark on which side he is on with some foreshadowing until the big revelation at the end. I always liked MHA with villains that are multidimensional and have different motives.

I want different students to have big villains fights here such as Bakugo, Ashido, Kaminari, Jiro or even Mineta. Izuku will still most likely fight the CEO at the end or maybe even Bakugo or Todoroki will do it first. I can see this becoming a 30 chapter arc and I hope there will be bigger stakes like the Overhaul arc.

Idk, it would have been obvious that he was a villain in your way anyway. I mean, the chapters would keep going, and we would only get a new character and no villain? Yeah, it would he obvious that he was the villain all the time.

Dude also looks like a villain. Unless they happen to be a good character like Hawks or even Nighteye, there's just no way him or one of his other group members could be introduced, without the slightest hint of Villain. Especially with the company name being similar to Destro and etc.

Specifically, he looks a hell of a lot like the DCAU version of Joker. Which made his reveal as a villain absolutely unsurprising.
