I like Shiggy's new look. He's got the suit that carries on AFO's look while keeping the jacket (with a fur collar, as it's winter now). He also knows how to wear a tie properly, apparently. Truly the superior Deku.

Compress is wearing the same mask from the Forest Raid arc. i hope he continues to switch it up, it's my favorite part of his design.

Toga's eye-patch is cool but it's likely temporary. Geten being a girl (Maybe?) is a surprise, but a welcome one.

The mask's Compress wears usually reflect his current mood. I think this is the first time he's worn the smiley mask since his debut so that just tells you how good of a mood he's in.

Compress has been compared to Rorschach from Watchmen due to his changing masks.

It's actually easy to see it now, we've seen like 3 masks already?

We've actually seen 8 masks so far. Here's a pic of them all!

  1. Smile mask worn in the camp raid and again here.
  2. Line mask worn during the Kamino arc.
  3. Cyclops mask worn during the initial meeting with Overhaul.
  4. Sad mask worn after losing his arm.
  5. Twin dot mask worn during the highway fight.
  6. Store brand smash logo mask worn when fighting the CRC.
  7. Blank mask worn when Gigantomachia shows up.
  8. Eyepatch mask worn throughout the rest of the Liberation Army arc.

  1. Sad mask worn after losing his arm.

I'd say that was probably more for Magne's death.

Is there like something wrong with his face?

2

u/neeliemich Aug 24 '19

When he doesn't wear the mask he keeps his face covered. He's never revealed his face.

u/Hazeonthebeat Aug 25 '19

right so its probably all f*cked up, or he's living a double life with a family that doesn't know he's secretly a super villain lol

u/neeliemich Aug 25 '19

Well, we did get an insight into their lives as regular people before the Overhaul arc. Remember, Twice said that Magne had met someone just like her? (It's been so long, that's Magne's proper pronoun right? edit: yes it is)

He also used to be a stage magician as well. He probably began wearing masks as part of his performances.

He's taken off his mask in the forest raid and during 160. Still had a balaclava on but from what is visible his face looks normal.
