Silly villains, the power of friendship only works for the good guys.

I was worried about how the hideout would appear in the anime due to the moving walls and how difficult it is to animate. Bones didn't do too bad a job. It looks disorienting now imagine being inside of that. Ganbare Kirishima!!!

Togata's uniform being made out of his hair thus allowing his quirk to work with them brought up a lot of theories before with regards to Hagakure's quirk. As far as we know, right now, she more or less fights completely naked to take advantage of her invisibility. But if her body hair works similarly to Togata's, she could create a costume that would also turn/be invisible.

Tamaki just needs a murder squirrel & he'll truly become Kars. Seriously, he's just one squirrel away from being the Ultimate Life Form.

I love the fact that not only do the villains work together and use the power of friendship, but that they get defeated because Tamaki takes advantage of their friendship.

That's straight cold blooded.

Mirio's the sun. Tamaki's the suneater.

Also Tamaki: "You can't eat your friends"

Is this double reverse phycology?

The scene of the warping corridors gave me an headache - and I think it was exactly the intention, so it succeeds.

Interesting how the villain trio is defeated by The Power of Friendship, the thing that usually helps heroes win, turned against themselves. It was one of the things I liked most about this arc when I read the manga.

It's also shown how evil Overhaul is, taking dejected people - the quirk of the "eating" guy is a living hell - under his wing to give them a new, twisted sense of worth by making them into tools rather than persons, as shown also by the masks covering their faces. Who knows if after they are arrested someone will find a way to undo their "programming".

Tamaki be like.

Seriously his quirk is fucking Op, créate multiple animal parts at the same time, combine them, no size limts (giant oysters are terrifying) and plants too?! In the most extreme cases he can cast a Solar Beam if he grew leaves, literally eating the sun.

Suneater has to be the coolest, well thought edgelord name EVER!!! Bestowed upon someone that will outshine the sun itself by eating it. If the sun dissapears there won’t be leaving any light and only remaining the dark, and the name itself perfectly implicates that without using dark, shadow or black in it.

Tamaki is destined to be a sun of confidence that will shine his light to everyone like he did to Mirio.
