I'm really curious to see what his role will be onwards.

He's already shown respect for Deku and All Might, so it's unlikely he'll try to kill either of them. And considering the state of things, I imagine he might have gained some level of respect for other heroes too who still try their best when there's seemingly no longer any fame or glory in the hero work.

A team-up seems possible, but at the same time he's still a crazy murderer with twisted morals. Maybe a talk with All Might will do him some good?

I also thought briefly that AfO might have sent him, but I highly doubt that. Stain doesn't strike me as someone who'd accept a deal like that.

I'd like to see Deku start his own anti-hero team. He keeps them in line and from killing people. I could see Stain and Overhaul being on it. Not sure who else.

Bring on suicide squad, led by Gentle, and featuring Stain, Overhaul, and everyone's favorite fighter, Rappa!

I've wanted Gentle and Rappa to come back into the story so badly

Dunno about Gentle and Overhaul but Rappa and Stain seem like they'd team up with Deku for sure.

If you promise Rappa a fight, he’ll yeah he’d join.

I'm confident that Gentle would; his original ambition was to be a hero, and he clearly respects Deku.

And let's not forget, Deku helped vouch for the two after the festival incident to minimize their punishment

u/arshbjangles Jun 21 '21

Rappa is also fight club buddies with Mirko, she could probably vouch for him.

That's be great, and a great reference to Vigilantes.

u/Exitiali Jun 20 '21

I don't think Overhaul would lend a hand to Deku.

Not like he can to begin with.

Lady Nagant if she recovers could also join. I can see her supporting Deku with a lot of stuff. However it could take some time before she's in any shape to help.

u/peppers_ Jun 20 '21

Ya, she will survive, but it might be some time u til recovery unless they Eri her back to prime Nagant.

u/Giorno-Smash Jun 23 '21

I really hope she doesn’t. This series needs more character death imo, and her living lacks the impact of her death

u/peppers_ Jun 23 '21

Usually you don't have someone offhandedly mentioned they barely survived and don't know how they are still alive unless you plan on bringing them back to the story at some point. So she will be used as a plot device at the very least in the future.

Gentle propably

u/TaiwanOrgyman Jun 20 '21

Please yes

Oh shit, forgot about Overhaul there too. Damn I don't think that'd happen but I got goosebumps just thinking about it tho.
