Not yet sadly. I don't expect to learn it anytime soon either, so until that happens, I'll continue assuming he's the sixth.
Awesome. So I have a collection of short stories that take place in this futuristic world. I'm gonna send you one and if you like my style we can go from there. Don't want you to read a bunch if you don't like it lol
Sure thing, sounds good. I'm not too picky with stories though, and the two of us have similar tastes so I'll probably like it.
Yeah, it's actually really neat how RE2 and 3 are connected. While Leon and Claire are trying to escape the city, Jill Valentine(with help from Carlos) is trying to do the same. You visit the RPD in both games, but Jill spends less time there and is out on the streets of Raccoon. She also has Nemesis to deal with, who is different than Mr.X in that he was specifically made to hunt down S.T.A.R.S. members(Chris, Jill, Barry, Rebecca, Brad, and...technically Wesker.) but most of them have already left the city by the time he's deployed. According to Dusk Golem, 3make is already in development, and I'm excited for that too!

You too understand the ramen struggle. With proper preparation you can make those babies a delicacy
Ohh, I was wondering about the difference between Nemesis and Mr. X. I thought they might be the same, haha. They're both Tyrants though... right? Nemesis sounds scarier (and looks scarier if I recall correctly) but Mr. X has that neat hat. Ehh, I'd probably be scared of both. I take it RE3 only has one story campaign unlike RE2? Also very glad to hear that about the RE3 remake!! I hope it doesn't take long too, though I'm in no rush and would want Capcom to make it as good as it can be.

Nemesis and Mr. X are both Tyrant variants, yes.

An interesting thing to explore that I'm not sure we've talked a lot about is how each predecessor met and related to each successor. Were there any who just happened to be in the right place at the right time in a moment of desperation to take up the mantle? Were there any who were friends, rivals, or lovers? I think there could be a lot of interesting stories to tell about One for All.

The hair factor is tripping me out. OfA is basically transferred by a strand of hair or else wise because its stored in the DNA, taking a little of your DNA in the process, and blending in with the successors DNA. I wonder why they don't just transfer it 100 times, give it back to Deku and give him all the quirks. I am now also suddenly aware that OfA transferral can now involve a fuckton of yaoi fanfiction.

I think it's been implied that the DNA needs to stew inside OFA for a certain amount of time in order for something to happen with it.
Besides, would you really trust random people to just give back this ultra-powerful quirk willingly? Remember, OFA can only be passed down with intent; eventually you'll find somebody who'll just say "Give up super god strength and X amount of quirks? Nah."

Noooooooooo! Well I got good news and bad news. I can now come in the this freely. Bad news is I went and did what I didn't mean to... I'm all caught up on and the current arc is so good and now I have to wait for next week 😦. I was wondering when other powers would start to manifest since the power boosting seemed more of a broth of the stew of all for one rather than any of the specific quirks it's made of. Like power enhancement is a basic thing that's peripheral to other powers that one for all made it more of a bonus than its true strength. Which means Deku's power set it about to get more interesting

Also, I wonder, what if the one of the shiloettes is that dead criminal the meta human resistance guy? That'd be an interesting twist. Also I second on the it'll be interesting to see if he'll get info on the past users. It'll be interesting to see if all for one manifested as a strength enhancer for all might due to his lack of quirk. And if in previous users it instead acted as a supplement to their quirk, altering it, rather than having a uniform effect.


On a different note
Also any viz ap shonen sub applicable manga suggestions? I'm up to date on one piece, and I finished Toriko, Buso Renkin and yugioh(classic), I may have a ridiculous reading comphrension rate, especially on fun stories... maybe I'll jump over on bleach from where I took a break on the anime

Yep, Nemesis is a variant of the T-103 Tyrant aka Mr.X. Both the T-103 and the T-002(from the OG resident evil)share the same genetics with Sergei Vladimir, a man who worked for Umbrella and was cloned because his body was capable of transforming into a Tyrant. Neat!

So they just added Horikoshi's second manga Barrage to Viz, Shonen Jump app

Reading it I can't help but to think how the MC weapon looks like Black Whip

There was also a girl sent to kill the prince who ended up being a shape shifting guy and I was immediately reminded of Toga

Ooofff, maybe I'll stick to revisiting the z era of Dragonball via the manga(I may have gotten into anime for the first time last year. I'm up to date on Dragonball and one piece)
Oh? New anime fan you say? Might I recommend YuYu Hakusho

Great 90s Shonen. What Bleach wanted to be
I second the Yu Yu Hakusho recommendation, best old-school Shonen anime with an amazing Dub(highly recommend)

Oh yeah and Sabat as Kuwabara was great..: I should save you guys some time and link my thread https://www.resetera.com/threads/lttp-naruto-original-series-plus-anime-in-general.42324/
Haven't updated it in a bit but biggest things are I finished Zeta and I'm working on ZZ Gundam, and I'm also working on and enjoying Fairy Tail. Oh and I watched New Getter Robo as an intro to Super Robots, dark but fun, G Gundam is on my to consider when I want a break from normal Gundam

Edit: also got up to part way through Chimera Ant arc in Hunter X Hunter. Took a break as it was getting too grim for me

i miss that series, was my favorite when it was running back then. Did love the final chapter/omake in the volume. Always one of my favorite way that the cancelled/early ended series close things out.

I had a feeling that it might end up like this, but Uraraka may end up being Monoma's main opponent.
Unless, that is, everyone but Shinso and Deku are fighting team versus team.

It's certainly a more positive outlook, but I don't see how his examples qualify as hints. Neither does it really address the issues people have with this development.

If you read the comments, somebody pointed out how it's been specifically noted a couple of times throughout the story how Deku's emotions have have played into his usage of OFA, one such example being during his previous fight with Bakugo where he ended up pushing his limit from 5 to 8 percent. A more recent example would be his fight with Overhaul where he pushed to 20 percent, with it causing him pain with no injury.
What events like these do is set precedents and absolutely count as foreshadowing. With Deku potentially unlocking these new quirks due to his mental states, he needs to be extra careful for a while or else he could end up wrecking his body in several different ways that dont include breaking his bones from the inside out.
In short, he will still have a while before he becomes OP in light of his new abilities.

So the cover for volume 22 is out and... it's kinda wack.
Hori went for a strange color scheme and I'm not sure it paid off.

Talking about the color spread and volume cover without spoiler tags is allowed, just saying. Neither are spoilers.

Nah, that's not foreshadowing.

Noting a few examples of the role Deku's emotions have played in the past do absolutely nothing to prepare you for the reveal that he'll eventually gain 6 OfA-enhanced quirks, much less how he'll obtain them. At least with the other justifications I've seen, like the stockpiling explanation of OfA, or when Deku first saw the vestiges, I could sort of see the logic in people retroactively considering that to be sufficient foreshadowing, even if I don't agree. But this? Definitely not.

With Deku potentially unlocking these new quirks due to his mental states, he needs to be extra careful for a while or else he could end up wrecking his body in several different ways that dont include breaking his bones from the inside out.

Setting aside the reveal itself, the issue I have more than anything is that the "rules" (tied to his emotions, depends on what he wants at any given moment) he's been given for obtaining new quirks are neatly set up to provide him with convenient power-ups. One can only hope the bulk of them appear in a non-serious setting...
