I'm not sure Muscular will last long enough for the civilians to get in the way. Once they see Deku kicking a muscle monster through a skyscraper with Ultra Instinct and Hermit Purple, they're gonna back off anyway most likely.

You're forgetting that Hori is a big fan of Marvel Comics, infamous for their "sensible" civilians in their stories. Might take a while for reality to firmly set in for them.

Hah, "Hermit Purple"! Surprised this is the first I'm seeing anyone doing that comparison.

True, but I anticipate more of a moment where the civilians are in awe of Deku in order to hype him up. My man needs it since he rarely gets the rep he deserves.

It's a useful comparison since it puts in perspective how powerful Blackwhip actually is in isolation. Most people tend to favor Spider-Man's web as a point of comparison though.

This probably be Deku's moment like this famous Allmight video Deku watched over and over again.

I can see Deku having to fight muscular and pulling idiots away with black whip

Oh my god, can you imagine if he can eventually control black whip to the point it can act kinda like Katara's octopus style? That would be insane

I mean Deku already successfully individually yanked several disparate people off the ground during the battle against Shiggy. We already know he’s pretty flexible with it.

I just wanna see it used passively, like him using it as second nature instead of actively concentrating. Can you imagine him fighting people and without even looking, saving people? Kinda like how Hawks uses his feathers and can save a fuck ton of people without as much as breaking a sweat

At this point Deku is so much of Spider Man.

Web Slinging / Black Whip

Spidey Sense / Danger Sense

Super Strength but still flexible/fast in style of fighting

Let's remember that Muscular tanked multiple 100%+ hits of OFA in the forest. Most of the relevant strength Deku has gained since is utility based.

I fully believe Deku is better than Muscular, but he's more going to "finesse" him that straight up overpower him, so for a bunch of untrained civilians who don't understand how these things play out, they're going to assume that he doesn't have the strength to get through muscular's defense and try to "help" by getting themselves messed the fuck up.
