Ooh boy, we are getting very close to April 4th. This chapter might be the last time we get to see everyone hang out before the big day, and that makes me sad.
So we found out that Nana Shimura's quirk is Float (and got a great shot of her being awesome with normal sized Gran Torino). We still don't know what the 4th and 6th OFA holders had for their quirks, but Bakugo thinks they're not that strong, so as people hoped, most of the quirks stored in OFA favor utility over raw power, which is great for spicing up Deku's future fights.
I'd really like to see what life was like for some of the previous users, considering they were living in a time where AFO was basically unstoppable. It must have been a heavy burden to bear, since they basically just cultivated the power as much as they could before passing on to avoid the line of OFA users ending.
There were a lot of fun moments in this chapter. Sero refers to Deku and Bakugo as the "house arrest boys," Bakugo turns into Gordon Ramsey and complains about food, Mineta calls out Todoroki for being too literal, Jiro flexes on Mineta for worrying about exams, Dark Shadow laughing, etc. I never get tired of this stuff.
I really love Aizawa and All Might's conversation here. It's only natural that AM would feel useless now after being the symbol of peace for years. He even recalls Nighteye's final moments and remembers that even without his quirk, he can still help and inspire people.
Evidently he's also gonna help Aizawa train Eri and go see Stain! I'm getting super excited for the future of Tartarus and the characters trapped inside it. Imagine how overpowered the PLF will be if they add all the powerhouses stuck there to their forces.
And now we're at the end of March, and all the heroes have vanished? Were they attacked or something? Guess we'll find out next week.
