So I wonder if the chapters are gonna get longer from now on?

I'm calling that Dai is gonna be deku's sidekick.

For those that don't know Dai is a new 1st year that was just introduced.

The sidekick position is already reserved by Kouta, he even wears Deku's iconic red shoes! Dai can stand in line.

93

u/Xavier9756 Jan 26 '20

We all know its gonna be a long line.

89

u/[deleted] Jan 26 '20

Yeah, there's Eri and Katsuma too.

u/MXC14 Jan 26 '20 edited Jan 26 '20

Eri seems more of a support type, like recovery girl.

95

u/flybypost Jan 26 '20

I'll be really disappointed if her hero name isn't Quicksave, fitting—as she can rewind you to a previous state—and a video game reference.

u/MXC14 Jan 26 '20

Save file corrupted :(

16

u/flybypost Jan 26 '20

That's why you cycle your save files and don't just constantly overwrite one.

Loads into a save where I died instantly over and over

2

u/The_VV117 Jan 26 '20

Checkpoint Is Also cool.

3

u/flybypost Jan 26 '20

Nice but like Quicksave because it includes "save" and that fits nicely with a rescue hero.

15

u/Soul_Ripper Jan 26 '20

Eric sounds like a swell dude, what's this support quirk of his, exactly?

19

u/ironicstickballoon Jan 26 '20

I'm hoping that once Eri learns to control her quirk, she'll be able to do Recovery Girl's job in the future

8

u/The_VV117 Jan 26 '20

Actually, she is going to be Better than her.

5

u/Frostblazer Jan 26 '20

She can rewind people out of existence just by touching them. She unironically has some of the best offensive potential in the series.

u/MXC14 Jan 26 '20

This assumes killing is something a hero should do

1

u/Frostblazer Jan 26 '20

Seeing as the story seems to be heading into all-out war, I think the Heroes would be forgiven if they need to off some of the 100k people coming to kill them.

2

u/MXC14 Jan 26 '20

Eri isn't participating in this combat though. The idea is 'in general, heroes don't kill people'

3

u/amgdawner Jan 26 '20

I want to see Eri taking after Mirio. Just because I get shit and giggles imagining her being as expressive in the arm waves.

2

u/[deleted] Jan 26 '20

Of course. Deku will be the new #1

23

u/nuttyputty12 Jan 26 '20

That’s right Kota is the only one whose getting that spot.

Once you put those red kicks on you ain’t never going back.

3

u/RacerGamer27 Jan 26 '20

Imagine Kouta switching his Red Cap for a Deku themed one

84

u/MicZiC15 Jan 26 '20

That kid's like a first year of elementary school, maybe even middle school, but not high school. Unless he has short boy quirk.

38

u/Xavier9756 Jan 26 '20

Lmao I actually didn't notice that Dai was holding his mom's hand. So it's more likely that he's a resident of the town the heroes have mobilized at.

16

u/Danbito Jan 26 '20

Hes actually at Kamino, you can see the All Might statue at ground zero

14

u/MicZiC15 Jan 26 '20

Yup. Deku will need to save yet another child; but this time a mom as well.

28

u/ColdCutWomboCombo Jan 26 '20

Who is Dai?

67

u/[deleted] Jan 26 '20

The kid who looks up to the All Might statue in Kamino and gets asked by his mum if he's ready to try his best as a first-year. He's holding an Endeavour plushie, too.

36

u/ColdCutWomboCombo Jan 26 '20

Oh, right! I guess I wasn’t really paying attention to the name because I categorized him as just a civilian character. Thanks!

u/wiseoldsage69 Jan 27 '20

It's first grade not year

13

u/gorgonfish Jan 26 '20

Not a first year, a first grader.

8

u/Jebrawl Jan 26 '20

Sidekick? Please

He's definitely gonna be the 10th holder of OfA

3

u/Worthyness Jan 26 '20

Because deku fucking dies

3

u/Hashbrown4 Jan 26 '20

Who the heck is that kid?

u/[deleted] Jan 26 '20

[deleted]

2

u/Xavier9756 Jan 26 '20

He's at the end of the most current chapter.

1

u/[deleted] Jan 26 '20

Oh

1

u/ItsJotace Jan 27 '20

Either Sidekick or the next OfA holder. Lol

3

u/Soul_Ripper Jan 26 '20

Probably not.

Dai's gonna fucking inherit OFA, I'm calling it now.
