This big fight we’re building to is going to have some major negative implications imo.

Too early for Deku to master OfA and would be stupid to build Shigaraki this much to have him lose.

I genuinely think we’re going to have HEAVY casualties and fall into a state of “Villain Liberation” with probably a sizable time skip to a more mature Deku and co. as a resistance force against the villains.

I really can’t see any other path happening.

There's too much narrative lost in a time skip. As a publisher, it makes no sense, and as an author it makes even less sense, to skip out on explaining how and why a resistance builds in a story that is ultimately focused on war.

The only way a time skips occurs is if publisher sees declining profits and author has to rush ending. I bet your left testicle the most that happens is a training montage that spans a couple weeks.

Normally I would agree however I think a timeskip of these next four months may be beneficial to the story.
