My Hero Academia, Chapter 106: Class 1A
More stuff develop in the battle royale, and I really, really like the design of the random background superheroes being taken out or fighting our dudes. But hey. We've got a bit of a nice little infodump about how the sensors work, Todoroki takes out a bunch of randoms with both fire and ice, looking cool as shit, being the first 1A kid to pass. Todoroki takes notice of Shindou, who's like super-excited fanboying about a Stamp-Man, before stopping to glare at Todoroki, which Todoroki finds odd. Something happened between the two of them in the past, that made Shindou chose not to enter U.A.?
Lady Clay-Mystique who still goes unnamed just goops her clothes off (that's totally unfair, her sensors are gone) which bothers the fuck out of poor little Midoriya. She's more interested in creeping Midoriya out than actually lobbing balls to make Midoriya fail, though, but she doesn't manage to lay a finger on Midoriya when the great Duct Tape Man, Sero, shows up with three wrist-launched tapes. Man, for a weird Spider-Man/Tron/your-pencil-box hybrid, Sero actually looks cool for once.
The real Uraraka shows off and drives Anime Mystique off. Midoriya discusses a bit about strategy and how a large amount of people hunting for a smaller group makes the larger group actually disadvantaged as they try to steal last hits, and Midoriya wants to gather more of 1A people so they can have a 'take down enemies and disable them' strategy. There's the English word "F0CK" on the actual Japanese art as part of Midoriya's imagination, which is hilarious as all hell. As they plan to go on with their plan, it's juxtaposed with Aizawa talking about Class 1A being awesome or whatever, while Kaminari and Bakugou face off against... Mr. Napoleon Man.
Who turned Kirishima into a horrifying blob of organs with fingers, eyeballs and spiky-teeth-mouth popping up here and there. And Napoleon Dude apparently did it to a lot of other heroes. He talks about how mere peasants can't do jack shit, and U.A.'s current batch lacks the discipline that he has. He sprouts creepy floating blobs shaped like fingers that presumably did whatever happened to poor Kirishima, while Bakugou? He just doesn't care, he just charges in ready to BLOW SOME MOTHERFUCKER'S FACE OFF YOOOO.
Oh, and Midoriya and Bakugou totally did take out their respective opponents. It's a bit of a m'eh and whatever fight scene since it's just a bunch of randoms (even if Mr. Napoleon Man has a pretty swanky uniform for a such a twat) it's at least a cool scene.
