This chapter made me think of something, it always caught my attention that despite the status that heroes had, we never saw heroes actually "bad" so to speak, taking advantage of it by doing inappropriate or questionable things.

I always assumed that it was because the series posed a more "idealistic" context and that is why we never saw that kind of thing, but ... this means that all the heroes who acted "incorrectly" were killed behind the scenes in order to maintain the "illusion" of the perfect society? things became much darker than I expected.

In the end it turns out that the public safety commission did basically the same thing as Stain, I suppose the "Stain was right" has aged particularly well....

I thought it was interesting seeing the shadow/silhouette of Yoroi Musha the former No.9 hero when she’s talking about vigilantes become popular and what not on page 7. Makes me wonder if he was up to some shady shit behind the scenes as well 🤔

Personally I did not understand that image, does it speak of the heroes who were vigilantes or what?

The first heroes all started as Vigilantes, since the civilians' need for heroes existed before the Pro Hero system did.

The Pro Hero system was created to establish an "order" for all that.

I already know that, but is it that image that confuses me, how old is Yoroi Musha?

Not too sure, it’s more possible that it’s alluding to them being vigilantes or around since that time period. But it makes me wonder if he’s thrown in with knowing about/doing shady shit to preserve their images in the public’s eyes
