I thought he said mutant human liberation. Would have made more sense anyway since mutants are treated differently than emitter or augmentation heroes. They bring up the trouble that some mutant heroes go through. Tsuyu had a whole side story with that one snake girl coping with having become a mutant and being feared ever since not being able to make friends. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really made them seem like more of a non-threat when we pretty much only ever get to see them either fighting a bunch of kids in their 2nd semester of their first year, or the god king of heroes that can change weather with the force of a punch. Hope them fighting other people will be a bit more interesting 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why Roots was racist as fuck. You're telling me that there wasn't one asian or white guy who could have played the part of kunta kinte better than the guy from fucking reading rainbow. He would have been much better cast as a plantation owner, I know that motherfucker can read! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She should have been one of the focal points of the last arc since that was her debut arc. And how the hell do you waste a f-ing DRAGON! Not only that but they made Eri afraid of her. You can just tell by looking at her that she's brimming with maternal instinct to nurture children, and it probably crushes her that kids are afraid of her. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funimation technically doesn't have any permanent voice staff. The moment a show ends everyone is let go and jobless unless they have another job already or are auditioning for the a new one. If black VA's aren't auditioning for anime roles it's hard to give it to them. There is a lot of type casting though with black voice actors. The only one that I can think of that wasn't playing a Monster, Robot, or Black Character was Uncle Phil playing the Shredder in the 80s, and it was pretty much just him doing his normal voice with a bit of rasp thrown in. So I think there could be an issue with vocal range. Though there are white VA's who made a career on 2 voices (cough Greg Ayers). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though yeah a lot of quirks are really fucking useless in their application of being a hero. It's even what Sting the hero killer was trying to "fix". Not to mention that there are things like hero items. You can kinda tell that with how Hatsumie interacts with Deku and that Deku was originally going to be a batman/ironman type character without a quirk, and that Uraraka was planned to be a boy at first. That the mangaka had a lot going on in his head that the editors were making him change and it conflicted the later story somewhat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the episode could have been called “the perils of fame.” Endeavor is simply not up to being a symbol the way All Might was, his Human Torch powers and cold demeanor make him the guy in the shadows more than the one who leads in the light. Discount Angel seems to realize that as well. Also a book by...Destro? Did he write an autobiography after leaving Cobra? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was clearly no intention to put a romantic plot into the manga because nothing in any of the stories concerns them. We only get ONE brief scene of Uraraka floating in the air as she's distracted by Deku exercising outside the dorm building, and it's never mentioned again. Of course I would've LOVED if it meant there'd be a gay relationship. Also, Deku is not in love with her. He's flustered when he first meets her but he's a shy teenage boy. EVERY shy teenage boy acts like that around girls. There were only going to be 3 female students in Class 1A?? How the hell kind of move is that?? I am starting to think he's a ton more misogynistic than I realized. Edited June 21, 2020 by elfie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The series is aimed more so toward males, there definitely being a large percentage that idolize / glorify the female characters. It's somewhat similar to how women of fame in Japan (such as idols, fem VA's, and so on) aren't allowed lovers otherwise the otaku plague will shun them and their career will take a nose dive. Same thing would apply with this series, I can bet that for just about every female character in the series you'll find people out there that idolize her to the point where if they see some other man hook up with them they'll get pissed off and stop supporting the series. It also doesn't help that the series is a shonen action series, and one thing I failed to see is a shonen series that features real, believable romance between characters. Some people think that even just a touch of romance here and there will derail a series, turning it into a love story (which I blame on series that have implemented romance in the past but to the extent where it's in your face, kind of like what happens with every American animated show that features romance, which is kind of why a lot of them will have the two main characters that are obviously gonna end up together make not hook up until like the last 5 minutes of their series.

She was always the main girl. The main difference was that she was supposed to be a size shifter. The author thought that was too hard to write the way he envisioned it so he made Mt. Lady the size shifter and gave her the gravity powers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering 90% or more of anime characters despite being Asian are depicted as having white skin, and when it comes to black folks voices, I find black women to have a better vocal range and can fill the roles of these characters better, but black guys typically have more distinct, deeper voices so it'd really depend on the role.
