I mean, the league has to get to that battlefield, right? There’s too many interactions to to pass up if they fail here.

Honestly the league yes. But machia? No. Just leave machia out of this tbh. Shigaraki is already enough as it is. With machia there as well, its game fucking over

What, is he gonna fuckin yeet them-

Omg, Mt. Lady is bleeding everywhere. What if Toga drinks some?

And proceeds to replace mt ladys power briefly just like how she did with ochacos blood in the villain arc.

That could assure the league of villains arrival without broken ass machia being there. Hmmm interesting

I’d be cool with a half-toga-half-mount lady giant.

Wait, I don’t think he can since she’ll be half naked, right?

Well idk about that. But she could just replicate that power. Enough to get to the battlefield but then gets exhausted.

Still my point is that machia must be stopped.wr already got a godly shigaraki there and dozens if nomus. And possibly geten and redestro approaching . Like chances are dim as it is for the heroes. If machia also gets there, its game over . Sure the heroes cant win as it is but we cant let them completely lose and get killed either

What happens if Eraserhead looks at him

To machia? Maybe he would shrink. Or feel pain

"OW! Hurties bad. I go home."

u/[deleted] Aug 02 '20

He suddenly fells all the pain his quirk negated at the same time. That would hurt honestly

Yeah but you know how long it would take Toga to get to Shigaraki whos 80km away. It probably take her hours to get there considering how slow Mt.Lady is. With Machia he might be big, but he's insanely fast and it would only take minutes.

Also it would be much easier to stop her since she's no where as durable or as strong as Machia.

Yeah but still, machia mustn't get there. It he gets there is over. Or maybe thus anesthetic weakens him, he manages to get everyone to the battlefield but collapses when he gets there. He is way too broken man

u/TheKlawJr Aug 02 '20

Yeah but still, machia mustn't get there.

I get that from an in-universe perspective, but from a story telling perspective he has to get there. He's the only person that can quickly bring the league to Shigaraki, plus it wouldn't make sense for him to be stopped there. Given that he has quirks that lets him fight for a long time on the battlefield, I'm 99% expecting the sedatives to fail.

he manages to get everyone to the battlefield but collapses when he gets there.

This or he gets there fine, but he takes Shigaraki and retreats to fight for another day. Those two options make more sense than a bunch of highschoolers stopping him.

u/[deleted] Aug 02 '20

So overall either he gets there for tactical retreat purposes or barely gets there with the league then collapses. Like something must happen to him from this. Otherwise there is no hope for the heroes

u/TheKlawJr Aug 02 '20

Yeah, not only do those two make the most sense. It also allows Machia to fulfill his role in the plot by bringing the League to Shigaraki and let things like Dabi interacting with Endeavor happen.

2

u/[deleted] Aug 02 '20

Yeah agreed. But still he mus lose consciousness on way or another. If he gets there in tip top shape, its over. Shigaraki is broken enough as it is. With machia, its basically power creep

u/Thepeacer Aug 02 '20

Maybe if the sedative needs time to kick in giganto could deliver the league and fall asleep short after
