    spoilers:

    Bakugou gets wrecked by All For Shigaraki, Suneater poisons Shigaraki but Shigaraki just pulls a hand-mouth power out of nowhere to spit it out because he's decided he can adapt to things now, the others try to fight Shigaraki but can't do much to him and Mirio admits they're just waiting for Green-Goku to show up. Bakugou is down but appears to be trying to strategize.

    I feel kind of vindicated.

    I said doing what they did fundamentally broke the concept of the series and would make it impossible to continue as normal.

    And the series agrees with me. My media literacy is on point!

    It is a really weird move given that Murata is willing to just redraw whole chapters to retcon them... Now he's making that part of the actual canon and it highlights how little he and ONE are planning ahead on this.

    RRR was pretty good. I can't give it a score of great bc the last hour takes just a little too long to set things up for the admittedly great payoffs of action and resolution but it was still pretty good. The first hour is almost perfect

    I mean I feel like it could have been different without doing whatever the hell that was.

    To present the not-really-entirely-but-somewhat opposing viewpoint on OPM : I don't think that the recent arc is bad per se, but there are definitely three "issues" of varying importance...

    1. It's wildly different from the webcomic - it split off a long time ago and they have become two entirely different properties now, linked only by the resemblance of the characters. It's in "MCU versus comics 616" territory now, which, well, annoys some fans and isn't a big deal to others.

    2. The really cool character-growth, "let's sit down and deal with the issues" logical endpoint that happened a few issues ago was utterly wasted. This is a personal-choice thing - I'm sure some of the fans liked the editorial choice there, but it seemed off to me.

    3. This last issue. Um, OK, what? Did Garou fight the TVA somewhere along the line? Is spoilers:
    SERIOUS SERIES - RETCON PUNCH
    end of spoilersgonna be a thing now? If so, I guess stakes have now been reduced to somewhere below zero.
