Boku no Hero Academia 101 Review:

My Hero Academia, Chapter 101: The Girl Named Hatsume Mei


Another slower chapter, we see Power Loader and Hatsume talking to Midoriya, Iida and Uraraka over costume upgrades, and there's your expected 'Midoriya is super-awkward after seeing part of Hatsume's boobs' scenes. Hatsume's... kind of crazy, as expected as a mad inventor, showing up with two inventions that physically injure Midoriya and Iida (thank god cartoon physics is in full effect here). We get some talk about how super-serious and super-hardworking Hatsume is and all that, and after some talk Midoriya gets an idea -- to stop the strain on his arms, he has to use his legs. Iida's leg powers and the Einstein quote kind of got through to him. 

After a montage, we get to see Midoriya's additional costume upgrade in the shape of some support on his arms, and Tokoyami has this utterly cool looking Tenebrous Abyss Body wrapping around his body, which gets past the whole 'main caster body is weak' problem that All Might noted him as having. Bakugou can concentrate his explosions into a single pinpoint blast. 

And then Midoriya shows off his 'Shoot Style' (apparently he's a Sanji fan), quite awesomely saving the underpowered All Might (who doesn't even look surprised) from a falling rock thanks to Bakugou's little power rampage. It's cool, and, yeah, since All Might and Midoriya keeps using their hands in combat we never really thought of alternatives like kicking. Good job, Midoriya. Let's just hope the new leg additions to your costume prevents your legs from being fucked up too much.
