Vigilantes

Remember: Stain was right.

I'm guessing this was him before he got fucked over by a "Pro"-Hero.

I'm guessing he's named after this guy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stendhal
I couldn't find any other instances of this name anywhere on google

>>158875916
Probably

>covers his face which stops him from using his quirk
>long straight hair instead of short or wavy
>killing only villains

>>158875916
That's Pro Genji

>>158875916
Shouldn't stuff like this be revealed in the main series?

>>158878073
There's too many flashbacks as it is. Unless you really want it to be more of a copy of nurutu.

Maybe Endeavour burned this guy's face and hair.

Impossible, Vigilantes is as cannon as it gets

the lack of KoichixPop doujin is driving me mad

I know that feel. Vigilantes is extremely underrated

>>158883053
But that would mean heroes have no problem with charging in without assessing the situation first.

Innocent civilians got beat up by them, and they didn't even care when it was brought up at the police station.

>>158875916
Why doesn't Koichi just apply to get a hero license?

It's not like there's anything stopping him at this point.

>>158884033
i think since heroes need special training, he can't just march in and apply for a license. That's why he was elated when Ingenium offered him sidekick position
we'll see Koichi in Iida family's hero agency, along with Tenya's return to spotlight

>>158878391
> almost raped a girl
> harassed another civilian
> manliest of man

i don't dig this development

>>158884452
He's on not!Stain's list. If anything, he's just pretending.

>>158876460
The two kanji on Stain's real name "Akaguro" translate to "Red" and "Black". "Red and Black" being Stendhal's most famous novel it's pretty safe to assume they're related.

>>158884452
Yeah, he should have come with another character for this, I don´t buy it at all.

>>158883957
That just means that Stain was right all along.

how long until he himself appears on notstain's hit list

How well does Vigilantes sell?

>>158884526
i guess he knows stain is killing villans and he is gona ask koichi for help

>>158876460
Stendhal's most famous book is "The Red and the Black".

Stain's real name is "Akaguro Chizome", literally Red and Black Blood Stains.

So yes, it's safe to say Stendhal and Stain share some kind of connection, narrative wise anyways. And he could very well be Stain himself, before his disfigurement and insanity.

>>158882404
Why are some morons on /a/ keep claiming Vigilante is non-canon when the Horikoshi himself said it is when introducing the manga? Are they trolling or just fucking stupid?

>>158886222

Vigilante continues to be a damn good spin-off and while it wasn't as obvious at the beginning, it's pretty apparent now that it's set up as a prequel to the stuff in the main series. I hope that at some point Vigilante's story will come to a natural conclusion, hopefully leading to an appearance of the Hauler in the main series. I really enjoy his personality and it seems like he'd be the right guy for Deku to have a philosophical pep talk about what it means to be a hero, especially with the sword of Damocles hovering over All-Might, who may not be around in the future.

>>158886222
to be fair there are some early installment weirdness in the earlier chapters, esp concerning how the heroes act. But I think they'll iron these out and be more inline with the main series as it progresses

>>158886222
Because it sucks.

Also because it shits on Hori's worldgrounding.

Also because of the unfortunate implications it gives heroes in general.

I'm not going to knock you for liking it (on it's own, it's a squarely average manga), but all I can see is wasted potential.

>>158886282
>Implying

I'm not the only one in this thread who's said it. But I've said multiple times in others that I wish I could like it.

>>158886523
What?

What does you liking or not liking have anything to do with canonity of a story?

Are you fucking retarded or something?

>>158886523
yea but those anons are shitposting you actualy belive in your non-canon crusade

>>158886602
There's also the fact that Hori never said word for word that it's canon. Just that they take place in the same universe.

>>158886645
Also, Smash takes place in the MHA universe as well, but no one considers that canon.

>>158886667
No he didn't. He only said it for the paragraph with Vigilante.
You might wanna re-read >>158882130

>>158886714
>It's fully set in the MHA universe

Meaning, it's supposed to follow the same rules and have the same people, not just being a "what if" AU.

That doesn't mean it's canon.

>>158886095
If they are the same person he is still pretty insane, he just killed a guy.

>>158875916
> cut straight through his dick
I think we know who the real monster is, here

>>158887126
Would Stain have murdered the vigilantes?

>>158887438
how do you think this series ends considering nobody in MHA has heard of them and its years later

>>158887477
They're a bunch of street level literal who's story wise.
They're not going to go "Hmm yes I remember a case like this involving these quirk drugs years ago. Good thing we had the Hauler with us."

>>158887438
I'd say the Crawler and Knuckleduster would be okay in his book, since he prioritizes values rather than legality.

This guy is basically Stain, not the exact same entirely but the same breed of wackjob

He had no confidence in his quirk when he was in highschool, it wasn't until his bout of vigilantism and learning from the people he encountered that he believed in his ability to do this stuff.

Well, street justice by killing villains isn't on the same scale as "I'm gonna run around killing heroes because they don't meet my hero criteria".

Stendhal is Frank Castle level of insanity, but Stain is on a whole another level of batshit. So if it's the same guy I would say he snapped somewhere along the way - probably around the same time he became disfigured.

plot twist: Stain kills him and starts using his sword as a sign of semi-respect.

>>158886523
i doubt hori didn't approve of the lewder midnight

he even said that midnight was meant to be lewder but Jump's editors made him to tone her down

>>158894218
That doesn't change the fact that Vigilante shits all over other characters, directly contradicts the manga at several points and is overall mediocre.

>>158894152
And change his real name to match his victim?
Or are you saying it's coincidence.

>>158894363
>>158886523

Hori himself loves the guy's work and greatly praises both the art and story. (as he stated many times, and even writes it right here >>158890045)
So your opinions are worthless.

>>158887589
maybe he was his former sidekick and things went terribly wrong

maybe his business was just him investigating the whereabouts of the guy on his own because of how dangerous he is

The hauler should have gotten OFA

Prove me wrong

>>158899893
Nighteye should have gotten OFA

I wonder if AM ever offered it to him. He would be beyond broken with super speed to match his predictions.

>>158899977
