Ngl Mic's reaction is giving me Nana vibes. The whole grief of their situations being brought up and wanting so desperately for it to end already, to choose the easy way out just so it stops hurting
Nana going from crying because Izuku wanted to save Tomura and feeling grateful to then shouting at Izuku to kill him already. Mic going from "if you aren't Shirakumo fade away but if you are come back to us" to then grabbing Kurogiri by his clothes ready to punch him and yelling about how he shouldn't have given him the benefit of the doubt
I think it's also shown in the way Mic lists things that dehumanise Kurogiri too. "He's not crying, it's just the rain" "he has no tear ducts, he's a noumu" It's so clear he wants this to be over already
Same thing happened with Nana and Tomura. The vestiges too. They kept saying how he is destruction incarnate, how it's too late for him, how he's a "thing" "not human", just like Tomura said himself
Mic and Nana just let themselves think that way because it's the easy way out. They put a lid on their feelings, and in the final war arc it's like the lids got ripped off and it's all coming out now
That's why I think Aizawa and Izuku sort of parallel here. They wonder about their supposed enemies. "Why didn't he get rid of us? Why didn't he kill us when he could have?" Aizawa asks, physically reaching out to Kurogiri. "I have to ask why he can't let go of that sad lonely past of his!" Izuku says, also attempting to reach out to Tomura in his own way
"That's where their origins lie" Aizawa says as he thinks back to those school days. And Izuku was in Tomura's mind, literally at the center of his "origin"
Even though it's painful for Nana, Tomura and Mic, Aizawa and Izuku press on anyway because they can't help but wonder whether things can change. If things don't have to be this way

i was wondering if you could go more in depth about monoma's way of taunting class 1a? i've seen the class 1b speech style but i was wondering if theres any cultural context that makes his manner especially strange, especially if he's using informal language with people he hasn't gotten close to. (i've seen some others mention that he talks in a very complex manner in japanese, as well as others saying that he speaks very intensity?) thank you!
I'm gonna be real, I don't know how to answer your question. To use informal speech with people you're not close to is pretty much definitionally disrespectful in Japanese, so it makes sense Monoma would do that. It's something I would also expect from another anime character like him. Perhaps this "complex manner/intensity" you're hearing about is a reference to how...dramatic and megalomaniacal he sounds? The dub isn't terrible at capture that vibe lol. In any case, there isn't anything that immediately sticks out about his manner of speech to me, but I haven't particularly paid close attention beyond what I've vaguely heard at times.

Why are people criticizing Present Mic in MHA 420? From Mic’s perspective, Kurogiri woke up at AFO’s command (via the hand that Spinner held against his face), despite Mic’s prayers that Shirakumo would show up and be a hero with him. Kurogiri warped to help Toga unleash Sad Girl’s Parade, and then to UA to bring the Twice clone army into the battle. The Twices severely injured Monoma and split him from Aizawa, so Shigaraki was released from the Erasure holding him back. Mic also saw the Twices nearly bring down floating UA and knock Aizawa off the building.
As far as Mic knows, all is lost because his appeal to the magic of friendship failed. Finally, Kurogiri warps Mic and Aizawa to some random tiny island in the middle of the ocean with no comms and no means of survival if Kurogiri doesn’t wake up. Sure, Mic and Aizawa didn’t fall to their deaths, but what does it matter when they’re going to die on this island, AFO is winning, and their students are injured and maybe dying? By shonen logic, that warrants a few DJ punches.
The irony is that “rational” Aizawa is the one who spots Shirakumo’s emotions. Aizawa defies logic and puts trust in Shirakumo one more time, looking at Kurogiri not as a Nomu or his old friend, but a UA student who needs teachers to guide him to graduation. [Edited to add:] As further evidence that Mic isn’t out of line, Aizawa went to UA and left Mic behind to guard Kurogiri. Mic will both protect their friend AND stand ready to battle the darkness when it comes back for him.

An important difference in Izuku's version of heroism compared to hero society's general approach is that Izuku returns agency to the people he has saved rather than inspiring the bystander effect/learned helplessness in others. He doesn't just beat the big bad and leave. Izuku tells the child who just felt helpless that he was a part of his own salvation and that he can now help save others

Like, I understand the meta of what Horikoshi is doing in this chapter. Izuku just sacrificed OFA, and now Eri is willing to potentially sacrifice her ability to use her quirk to help him. Moreover, you have Aizawa, who cut off his own leg in the last war to KEEP his quirk (inspired by Eri, so he could protect her). He later lost his right eye after losing his leg, so he can’t really use Erasure even though he still has it genetically. Everything heroic Aizawa does in Ch 420 has to do with him as a person and teacher and friend, not Erasure.
Tumblr media
Likewise, I understand the parallels and callbacks to the Overhaul arc. Izuku repeatedly broke himself and Eri repeatedly undid that damage in order to defeat Chisaki’s regeneration. Izuku asks Eri to lend him a hand and thinks how he won’t let Chisaki heal himself.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Before that, Eri was willing to return to Chisaki’s abuse in order to stop the fighting and spare Mirio, Nighteye, and Izuku. It’s the first time she really gets to make a choice for herself. Seeing people fight for her inspired her to sacrifice herself, but Izuku — our smart, compassionate MC — found another way to win when all seemed lost. He sacrificed himself repeatedly, but didn’t take damage because he could rely on Eri’s “cursed” power, proving to her that her power could heal and do something heroic.
Tumblr media
All of that said, understanding doesn’t mean I like this development. I’ll read the full chapter on Sunday and then think about it some more.
MHA 420 leak reactions
Sooooo, Aizawa can just use Kurogiri’s portals now? Because he’s a teacher and Kurogiri is basically still the body of student-aged Shirakumo? We don’t even get a full chapter of the rooftop boys working their shit out?
And Eri can cut off her horn and it still works? (Be nice to Ectoplasm, he’s a double amputee himself. And respect Eri’s agency, which she never had with Chisaki. Yes she is a minor making a major permanent decision, which has issues, but she’s calling the shots over how her body and her power are used, and that’s fair.)
…I’ll wait for official translations and images but, uh. Hm. This is. Huh.

The new TomurAFO look is dehydrated and skeletal except for the bulkiest trapezius and neck muscles this side of prime All Might. Also, I’m realizing that not only does the hand cover his mouth, but the fingers on the hand plug his ears AND there are fingers holding down his shoulders.

Firstborn children too old and molded to be led astray by AFO.

Turns out, AFO and Ujiko/Garaki HAD to use babies. “Raw material.” Because even children with a strong will could resist AFO’s lies.
