    He shouldn't go free, but unfortunately the system should not, in theory, do one-offs so they have to follow precedent.

    I guess in a scenario like that you could go either this way or "it already sucks so lets do the right thing" but that's not something people higher up generally want to do.

    Sadly I can't imagine someone who's kept their silence this long would come forward now.

    There is a brightside.

    His legacy and image have been destroyed, absolutely torpedoed. For a celebrity, and someone who seemingly relished being "America's Dad" that's probably the worst thing.

    He'll die alone, and be quickly forgotten.

    You wanna know what true horror is?

    The Katana is the bestest sword ever. Superior to every other sword.

    Yeah, but if you... man, we're getting into weird analogy territory, like if you disintegrated Superman's arms he wouldn't be able to go "fool! Little did you know that my arms and I are one and can be remade from me!" and will his arms back into being from pure nothingness. - Pendaran

    you know, it's ironic. cosby was known for not liking other comedians for using swears in their stand ups, most famously pryor and murphy.

    it's ironic that he saw them as not being good people but they were a hell of a lot better than he was.

    True enough. He'll essentially live as a social pariah for however long he has left on this Earth, and not even a particularly rich one either.

    Blue Exorcist: Rin's training and emotional Journey through time has paid off as we get one hell of a family reunion.

    What a cliffhanger to end on before going on a nearly year long break.

    and given the lengths he's gone to over the decades to craft that image, you can see how important that is to him. to be viewed as this perfect father figure. and he's lost that. for someone like him, that's almost as bad as going to prison. i said almost.

    no more "cosby show" honors. no more invites to speak at college graduations. nothing.

    and more irony that a richard pryor, the son of a prostitute who never killed himself doing drugs, is more fondly remembered and honored than "america's dad".

    The wait is going to be even more excruciating since Kazue stated on her Twitter back in September that we've only just stepped into the second half of the manga. Ugh, I'm getting Berserk flashbacks. Oh well, her health is important. I also noticed Rin took a page out of Shinra's book by channeling his flames under his feet to propulse him through the air and giving him a good speed boost.

    And Beatrice...Why are you suddenly a demon king and why aren't you with Subaru?

    But does it have good balance?

    (Damn, that’s an old meme round here.)

    In other news, this was the best episode of Loki so far. Especially the spoilers:
    post-credit scene
    end of spoilers.

    Y'know, thinking about it, Heroes Rising did definitively prove that Izuku could share OFA's power with other people temporarily, so I wouldn't be surprised if this is what Horikoshi is building up to when Deku reunites with the others.

    And God help you Deku, when Ochako gets her hands on you for leaving her behind.

    Wait, this whole massive battle involving almost every single major in the series is the halfway point? Basically the Blue Exorcist equivalent of the Marineford war? ...that's rather exciting actually.

    Flight through hellfire propulsion is a good addition to Rin's repetoire. I was a bit disappointed that we didn't get to see how powerful his Satan Slash is now, but Satan dealt with it in a really cool way, so it even's out.

    I don't know if Horikoshi wants to bring back that particular movie style hand wave explanation for the actual series. I do agree that more of the hero community will share the burden that All Might shouldered on his own, but probably not via sharing One For All.

    Yells, slaps and hugs are in store for Deku once Ochako catches up with him.
