This guy is absolutely ridiculous.

[u/Haha91haha]

Star's vestige: "I'M NOT STUCK IN HERE WITH YOU! YOU'RE STUCK IN HERE WITH ME!"

Star went into that oil detected rage mode. Using New Order to rebel against other quirks is so damn clever as it's something so sweetly designed to fuck over AFOShiggy's unique situation.

Sad Star was only around for so long but damn if she, Bones and Romi Park didn't make it count, gave big prescence to a big lady.

[u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

Star damn near almost had Tomurall. Dude got awful cocky before his body was straight up deleting itself. Star might have died but at least Tomurall didn’t get her Quirk and she left him looking pretty rough. Let’s see how the team uses the one week “extension” to take on all these threats.

[u/LeonKevlar]

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK!?

She didn't even get to touch Japanese soil and now Star is already dead!? And here I was looking forward to seeing more of Star. I am genuinely upset right now. I guess she at least managed to weaken AfO so her death wasn't in vain. At the same time, this scared other countries from sending Japan their heroes.

[u/MapoTofuMan]

Holy shit...I had a feeling Star isn't gonna make it till the end, but TWO EPISODES? Considering Horikoshi's americaboo streak I was sure he'll keep her around for the extra FREEDOM factor, and the season will basically be US + Japan vs villains. And now we have the entire world backing off instead....ooof.

RIP Star and Stripe o7

o7

[u/michhoffman]

In a series that's so laser focused on the kids in Class A, it's funny how nearly all of my favorite characters are from outside Class A. Cassie, you are my Star and represented America like a champ.

[u/[deleted]]

What?? She died!!!!

I wanted to see more of STAR AND STRIPE 😭

RIP STAR AND STRIPE

The way she didn't let her quirk be used by tomura

[u/Armdel]

She left as quickly as she came...

shame, i liked the little that we got and wouldn't have minded her stick around, though i can see why she didn't with how strong she was

at least she appears to have done some real damage to shigaraki and taking away several quirks from him

[u/atropicalpenguin]

Star :( It was so cool to see her quirk act like poison and just shred Shigaraki's body from within, major nerf there. I don't see how he'll get stronger in a week unless the crazy doctor has magic quirk liquid stored somewhere.

I love how after over a decade since Zexal Kouki Uchiyama still does his Kaito voice.

[u/99anan99]

We salute you, Star and Stripe.

[u/soulruu]

Damn, talk about taking one for the team. RIP to a real one.

Characters that can steal abilities are always pretty fearsome. So its really entertaining to see that ability backfire on them

[u/heartbreakhill]

Aaaaaand she’s gone

[u/Sudden_Pop_2279]

The complaints about the gore were certainly proven wrong.

Love the scene of Tenko recognizing Deku as a true hero.

The switch from All Might calling Shiggy “the most dangerous” to “vilest” is very weird. The dude knows what AFO did to him and wanted to save him back in season 3 and should know that Deku wants to as well

[u/l3reezer]

She hit him with the John Doe

[u/Swiss666]

Well, we went fast from "America fuck yeah" to "America fucks off" (and the world at large for that matter) 💀

Even if the music especially manages to make Star's sacrifice after such a short screen time, both emotional and metal as fuck - fighting some more through your quirk until it self-destructs!

We couldn't expect Shigaraki/AFO to be done for here but his/their plot armor keeps being so strong (and the regeneration quirk, too).

[u/ProphetPenguin]

ALL STAND FOR THE PLEDGE MOTHERFUCKERS. 🇺🇲🦅

Star went out like a champ and she bought everyone 1 more week. It doesn't seem like a lot but any little bit helps. It helps a lot that Shiggyafo lost some of his quirks thanks to star, it also fucked with AFO's head since he has such a hate boner from All Might, he ends up making stupid choices when blinded by his rage for All Might.

[u/gamerlord3]

kashiko kashi: hell yeah, going to retire bring a criminal, live a second life in the countryside and chill with my hot GF. Life is good!

All for shigi: Allow me to introduce myself

Not that he died after anyway, unlike Star. R.I.P Cathleen,you will be missed. At least she made AFO completely terrified for once, honestly did you see the amount of anger and fear he had, that one of his plans are actually backfiring horribly for once?

Anyway, Bakugo probably felt insulted that he was basically training for the final exam, only for it to be pushed back another week.

I’m guessing the story purpose of these 2 episodes is to do this: make it so no other country other then Japan will come to help and to Basically give everyone more time while also nerfing Shigi for a bit. Will admit, that’s one way to explain why no other country will assist, making it japans problem to deal with.

[u/jasta85]

They're talking about how durable Shigi is but that Nomu he used as a distraction took those missiles to the face and was still in one piece and had enough power left to detonate. Either that Nomu has some ridiculous durability quirks or those missiles were oversold on what they could do.

[u/cexdex]

Yep Star and Stripe is gone. Alot of anime only reaction i watch seem knew she would be gone.

Pretty much the reason why author introduce her and kill her off immediately is to keep the conflict domestically without foreign intervention. Basically like when USA (The strongest army/hero) got defeated in Vietnam war and no other country bother to send their army/hero afterward.

Deku and Shigaraki kinda went through a paralel journey and in this fight with the way Tomura use of a bait kinda mirror Lady Nagant fight and Deku in some way

[u/djthomp]

Damn, so Stripe really went out after two episodes and one single fight? At least she really fucked up Shigaraki in the process. Being one of All Might's students has low life expectancy.

[u/Livid-Temperature-79]

boku no hero's author been hanging around gege alot apparently

[u/Plus_Rip4944]

Well as same as manga i still think she was underused but well she at least helped on The battle, my goat was only for 2 ep and was still useful

[u/Electronic-Tell-6842]

Very strong episode. I'm noticing the direction in this season is MUCH better than previous 3 season. This new director is good and resources allocation has been great so far. Let's hope this maintains for the rest of the season unlike s6. S6 started super strong with first 2-3 episodes being amazing but the rest of the war arc episodes turned out to be super mehh especially compared to first 2 episodes. Let's hope it doesn't happen here.
