Deku just didn't use One For All correctly earlier in the story (and All Might is an idiot) so he ended up hurting himself.

So the way I understand it, if Deku continued training his body for years and years, he'd be able to get to a point where he could use All for One continuously with little to no drawbacks, right?
So why the fuck doesn't he just do that instead of enrolling in that academy? Wouldn't be he better off biding his time and then joining the hero world when he's good and ready?

its common in animes

its about playing with your emotions, its imporant to viewer see himself in spot of MC or other charasters that act like the viewer or are the same sex charaster in anime as the viewer

and then make you feel like losing something important without actually losing it. possibly at the end you will be given actual results to give you last pit of emotion feelings so you get that "what to do next" in your life

way to fool you i tell you that. free will is illusion if you do not control your emotions and i can say with 100% chance that you do not control them, only that you believe you are in control of them

Or they just convert the villain into some antihero. This way the author avoids making the hero kill while getting a way of disposing other villains in the future.

>>151602238
Yeah indeed, I think one of the reasons I really rate Negima above the other shounen series is how Negi actually goes against the established notion of "proper hard work and honest training"and instead goes for "corrupted power".

I mean a lot of other shounen do still end up doing/using some corrupted/dark power, but that's usually like after they exhausted everything and things are desperate.

That's the problem with heroes, really. Their only purpose in life is to thwart others. They make no plans, develop no strategies. They react instead of act. Without villains, heroes would stagnate. Without heroes, villains would be running the world. Heroes have morals. Villains have work ethic.

You do make a pretty good point. There was a point in the beginning of part 2 though where Captain Yamato says Naruto should rely on his own strength and not the fox's, which led to the development of the rasenshuriken. It was inevitable for him to start using that fox power anyways.

Demons being the 'good' guys probably comes from Paradise Lost. Also from the fact that God and His angels, while they don't deny free will, in the OT especially don't really have an open mind at any point in time. God is right and if you agree with him then you are too. There's no room for discussion. He doesn't take away free will since you CAN turn away from Him, but that makes you automatically evil and you can see how that would be a pretty poor theme for a shonen aimed at kids.

but a good protagonist has a personal goal they are actively working torwards. That's what makes Shinchika more interesting than, say, Ichigo from Bleach. Shichika has a personal stake in the battles, whereas Ichigo(or really most shonen MCs) just exist to fight whoever is attacking that week.

Bitchboy Hercules and Perseus are some of the original Heroes and make no fucking mistake, they killed people. Batman is an 'antihero' but because he fucking refuses to kill the Joker he's indirectly fucked up Arkham beyond measure
It's OBVIOUS the prison cannot fucking hold the Joker. Putting him in is equivalent to letting him go.

>>151603664
Old comic batman has killed some people actually, or at least left quite them to be killed.

Well that's why I put antihero in scare quotes, he was always supposed to be one.

>>151603733
I honestly think we need more villains who are too powerful for the MC to ever fight squarely and more times when the MC just flat out never surpasses some of the characters in the story. It's both a good excuse to not want to fight and a good way to introduce more subtle ways of fighting, or even thinking whether or not he should be fighting at all.

The only time this annoys me is when the consequences of not using the technique are clearly worse. Like if you're going to fucking die if you don't use it, then who cares.

He was able to beat Nappa without it, though. The only thing it did there was let him punch Nappa in the kidneys before he attacked Krillin and Gohan.

Vegeta tanked the Kaioken and Spirit Bomb. By the end, he only loses because Gohan sits on him as a giant ape.

Toguro was scary as fuck, man.

If they're fast enough to zoom up behind them, why don't they just stick their katana out while they pass the other dude by?

From what I understand, it was supposed to be a Harem Comedy, but half way through it turned into a pretty good fighting shounen, with a large cast of characters and a way to keep them all (at least a little) interesting.

The funny part was that UQHolder came out as "finally he can write a fighting shounen from the beginning", and it was actually a decent action harem-style.

I was just looking for a mindless harem with a kind of interesting setting/gimmick.
