    Maybe you're thinking of them.
    Hm, I have been re-watching a lot of playthroughs of the PS4 Spider-Man game and its sequel lately, and that version of Rhino definitely fits the bill. It just didn't occur to me because he's a different type of character from what I had in mind.

    So, yeah, that might be it.

    My Hero Academia: We're in the epilogue of this arc now. Shoto has reached the narrative point I've been hoping for all along. And I bet that we're going to get a meeting between Deku and the vestiges within One For All for chapter 300.

    Black Clover: Things have taken a bad turn. It's different from what I expected but it's still very bad.

    Phantom Seer: Iori reaffirms his goals but includes Riku when talks about achieving them. That's nice. Lots of setup for the next arc as we learn more about the conceiving hands and meet some new interesting people.

    Jigokuraku wrapped up.

    Final chapter was just a little tying up of all the loose ends. As I said last week, an excellent manga, highly recommended. Very much enjoyed it and it didn't outstay it's welcome. Great art, great fights, great tone and character work.

    Would recommend, big thumbs.

    Black Clover: Yeah, I wholly overlooked the threat level of spoilers:
    Morris here. And going by Dante's surprised expression, he wasn't expecting the new devils either.
    end of spoilers


    Phantom Seer: The setups for future arcs planted in this chapter has me pretty excited. I'm hoping that we learn more about the Conceiving Hands and this new group of villains soon.

    MHA: Pretty much my thoughts on the chapter, though I'm wondering if AFO's hijacking of Shigaraki will start splintering the OG Legion of Villains' group.

    Oh, man. That sucks.

    She was amazing in that role.

    (That came out wrong - I mean it would suck even if she was a terrible actor, but she really wasn’t.)

    Critics who treat adult as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence.

    Could be Mecha.

    I don't like how Godzilla's characterization seems to contrast with KOTM.

    But maybe it is something else like Fist said

    Some of the dialogue alluded to something causing him to act out of character. Could be Mecha, or some other deal. I'll give it a watch.
