I never really thought of MHA as a sci-fi show, but whatever.

It was a Rocky Horror reference...

 

[The1gairon]

I'm seeing friends this weekend so I won't be watching. Have fun with the finale!

[PokeNirvash]

ANYWAYS

Last time, Shigaraki flashed back to the time he killed his family. But the question is, did they deserve it? His dad, definitely. The rest of the family... eh, not so much.

[PokeNirvash]

"I killed my family. Just like Marik Ishtar's dark side told me to."

[PokeNirvash]

And then All For One came into the picture.

[AnimationFan14]

We get the full Man on Mission opening, the first time in a long time

[PokeNirvash]

I can't believe I didn't consider the possibility of there being a full OP played. That's pretty cool, I guess.

These random assholes seem surprisingly animated for obvious bit characters.

[PokeNirvash]

SHIGARAKI BEGINS

[PokeNirvash]

Bullshit Shigaraki's your last name.

Shit, I forgot Re-Destro wound up looking like that.

[ben0119]

Playing the full OP?

I guess because it is airing first?

I got mixed up and thought Blade Runner: Black Lotus was starting tonight.

[PokeNirvash]

Neat, his voice changed. I think I kinda like it.

LEROOOOOOOOOY.

[DangerMouse]

Blood shaping like a mask there for Shigaraki.

[ben0119]

What is the point of hiding One For All's face?  Seems like he just looks like a normal guy.

[PokeNirvash]

If you drive Shigaraki into a corner, all that'll do is summon Lil' Slugger.

For dramatic effect. :3

[DangerMouse]

Just like that bastard doctor from FMA Brotherhood

[AnimationFan14]

I knew this would turn into Gundam Iron Blooded Orphaned 

[PokeNirvash]

"My patent!"

Well no shit he's changed, did you even hear the change in his voice?

[PokeNirvash]

I can't believe I'm enjoying watching Shigaraki as much as I am right now. Dude turned fun after he went full designated protag.

[DangerMouse]

Manipulating Shigaraki

[DangerMouse]

Aww yeah, gimme that Blade Runner

[ben0119]

LOL armor that makes Re-Destro feel shitty to make him get stronger.

[PokeNirvash]

Black Lotus sure is getting all these different promos, not sure if these means it'll be better than Fena or even more of a disappointment than that.

[ben0119]

So the hands were holding Tomura back?

[ben0119]

Disintegrating the ground?

His new confident smile is working wonders 

 

[ben0119]

So I guess this means we aren't getting back to the main plot before the seasons ends haha.

[PokeNirvash]

And that, children, is how Shigaraki became the protagonist of his own story at last.

[ben0119]

Re-Destro chopped his feet off?!

If a powerup arc for heroes can be considered part of the main plot, then a powerup arc for the villains can be too.

[EmpressAngel]

Fun story, in the manga his speech bubbles go from looking rough and jaggy to being normal and smooth after his flashback, so his voice was always meant to do the change there.

[PokeNirvash]

Curious didn't deserve this.

Background pink hair is a cute.

[ben0119]

Giving over the army to Tomura holy crap.

Successor to One For All and Destro!

[DangerMouse]

LOL, it's crazy that the disintegration can travel through an object and then disintegrate them too.

[PokeNirvash]

Nice eyepatch, Toga.

SECRET TUNNEL~.

[ben0119]

Oh thank god Toga is alive.

[ben0119]

Paranormal... what?

[PokeNirvash]

Eh, I like "Meta Liberation Army" better.

"We'll do what we want, when we want, who we want."

[ben0119]

LMAO Re-Destro runs off.

[AnimationFan14]

My Paranormal Academia 

[PokeNirvash]

Shigaraki: [being electrocuted on an operating table] "I REGRET EVERYTHING!!!"

[PokeNirvash]

"The two-part season finale", he says just after the first part ended.

Yeah I suppose so.  And now two villain organizations have reorganized and merged, so a lot more came out of that than I thought, heh.

[PokeNirvash]

What?

It's an Avatar Abridged reference that might have been an Avatar Unabridged reference. Some guy singing "secret tunnel" as a secret passage opened up.

[EmpressAngel]

The anime left out the fact that ice boy is actually ridiculously pretty and that's a real shame.
