I suspected that Mirio might lose his powers there. The reason is that he overshadows main character.

Kanon · 2017-09-07, 16:26

Mirio had no way to know what kind of bullet they were truly going to use. Could have very well been a regular one, in which case Eri would have been killed (and we know it's not a problem for Overhaul if she dies). He couldn't take that risk.

Most convenient my ass. Mirio kept fighting for several minutes despite losing his quirk. Chisaki had barely managed to strike him and he showed no signs of giving up.

Wandering Soul · 2017-09-07, 16:35

RIP Mirio's future as a hero. There might be a way for him to get his quirk back and I'm sure he'll try, but for now he proved that he was true hero.

Diluc · 2017-09-07, 22:00

Yes this is badass chapter for Mirio, i am not surprise if in next popularity poll Mirio is among top 5 heck maybe no. 1 position.
On other note Mirio father really same as Mirio and more closer to Tintin. Guess Mirio face actually came from gene rather oddity.
This chapter sealing the possibility for Mirio being traitor, we see how Mirio so genuine for his hero dream it will be against his character if Mirio turn out become traitor or evil. The only plausible way Mirio turn evil is him get brainwashed other possibility than that are unlikely.

Waxman · 2017-09-07, 22:37

I like this chapter quite a bit.
.
First off i don't think Mirio should recover his quirk, i don't hate him or think he overshadow Deku but actions need to have consequenses to make the stakes feel real.
.
That said I don't think that Mirio will give up on beign a hero now that he's quirkless, we've seen what people can do with only physical abilities, it will be harder but i think he will manage.
.
Also and this has nothing to do with anything but i am calling it now, Mirio will give Deku his cape.
.
Since the beta version of his hero suit Deku's hood(?) that he never put on was in my head destined to evolve into a cape like All Might. I am not saying he will start wearing it now but it will be in a future version of the suit.
.
Now just to recap the "traitor candidates" the 2 more likely were...
.
The Director, the only (as far as i know) animal with a quirk that could have been granted to him bi AFO. Unlikely true but could be interesting
.
Monoma, his quirk "Copy" can be a mutation of AFO's own quirk wich means he may be AFO's (grand)child.

Twi · 2017-09-07, 23:04

A Cape would interfere with Izuku's fighting style though.

Waxman · 2017-09-07, 23:37

For now, yeah, but when he does master more of AFO and improves his hand to hand combat a cape may go with his costume.
.
I mean Batman has a cape and he is one of the best martial artist.

There's more to it than that. These guy's only need her quirk, they don't need her to be able to think beyond basic a biological level. It's entirely possible that, should the shot Quirk Suppressant hit her head, it would be low enough that Overhaul can "repair" her to continue living, but high enough that Mirio can't save her.

Actually, I foresee Mirio becoming a successful "Quirkless Hero", which I honestly think that this story might benefit from. Additionally, we are already confident that Mirio has enough personal experience and ability to be successful as a Hero, and being the first and possibly (probably not, but possibly) only Hero to lose their Quirk seemingly permanently would make him a good person to rally around should this technology become more prevalent/mass producible.

If Mirio does get his Quirk back, it shouldn't be soon. Preferably in a in-story year or more, preferably more. It is stated to be permanent, after all. And during that time, he should continue working as a Hero.

I don't see Deku getting a cape. Like Twi said, it doesn't suit Deku's current fighting style, and, in my mind, it'll put him a bit too close to All Might's look for how Deku's actually progressing as a character. I don't think that Deku should become All Might, I think that a step forward would be Deku losing the Rabbit Ears on his hoody, as they seem like they are meant to imitate All Might's Hair. Replacing the hood with something would be beneficial, though.

The Director is unlikely to work with his creator/s. It was stated that he wasn't treated well by them.

I don't see Monoma being a traitor. He's a bit of an idiot with an ego problem. Not someone willing to be someone's lackey. Someone like Shiozaki (vine haired girl) is more likely in my mind. That said, why are we assuming that there is going to be or already is a traitor among the students, again?

Heck, if it erased her quirk, it would solve a lot of problems. (Though I don't think it would, since it came from her.)

But what if the villain shot Eri's head or heart?

I don't think any good hero will gamble on that unless they are psychic.

marvelB · 2017-09-08, 02:20

Wow, Mirio was awesome this chapter! It's just too bad that he may have lost his quirk forever.... but on the other hand, I think it would be all the more interesting if he can still manage to become a great hero without his quirk. I mean, he could just go full Batman and use a bunch of tools/gadgets to make up for the lack of powers instead. You know, give our gal Hatsume a nice guinea pig to work with, heh.

There was one particular moment in the chapter that stood out for me, though.... at least, if the translation's right: Overhaul asked Mirio if he was saving Eri for her sake, or for the sake of playing the hero (his own ego, in other words). I found that particularly interesting because this rescue mission may potentially be the crossroads where our Pac-Man-eyed hero chooses to walk down either the path of an All Might (selfless champion who truly cares about saving lies), or an Endeavor (talented but ultimately selfish pro who treats hero work more like a business).....

IIRC, it goes back to the training camp, only a few teachers and the students concerned knew about its location, yet the villains attacked it. I believe it was the principal who deduced there was a traitor among the staff or the students. People favor the traitor being a student because it would be a bigger twist.

I don't know why Mirio was among the suspects though, since he's unrelated to the incident. It should be someone from 1-A or 1-B.

thefreakmike · 2017-09-08, 12:33

Maybe the traitor is some sort of "sleeper agent" ala Manchurian Candidate, who doesnt even know he/she is working for them and gets "activated" from time to time

Waxman · 2017-09-08, 14:10

It was Mic sensei who deduced there was a traitor.
.
I don't think the Director is the traitor but i do believe it's a possibility that we'll eventually learn that he was one of AFO experiments and assume he's the traitor.
.
Monoma is also a good candidate in my book.
.
But then again it can be anyone, heck for all we know AFO took Hagakure's Quirk and gave it to an spy girl, it's not like we know how Hagakure looks like.

Kanon · 2017-09-08, 18:50

IMO Monoma isn't a good candidate because he's a rather irrelevant character (I didn't even remember his name). If the author is drawing this out, it means he intends for the revelation to be shocking. It'll be a character we know well.

Skaddix · 2017-09-08, 21:56

My god the villains need to hit gym and have a training arc these guys are embarrassing we going to upgrade to some villains who are actually good at fighting?

Cause he is needs her alive and has repeatedly said as much?

He only took the bullet because he didn't want her to get hurt.

They are villain. Do you think they will care about their plan over their survival?

Again, hero cannot risk or gamble on it.

Skaddix · 2017-09-08, 22:41

Considering she is critical to their plan yeah I think the villains aren't going to try to land a kill on a tool they still need.
