It's surprising some people, so... it can't be Kaminari or Hagakure then. Shit. Hmm.

Yeah, I should go dark. Might uninstall Twitter or something. Or maybe just remove the shortcut.

So Chapter 167 YonkouProductions teases this as to be THE CHAPTER of all time. He even posted it hints and it seems like they finally reveal...

The traitor!! Would be sick if Todoroki and Co come back to their school just to see everything destroyed or something like this
the internet is going to blow

Ehhhhh I wouldn't say it's been theorized a lot compared....
to other people like our electric boy

Yeah but I saw so many theories for that person and it always felt off
how he also acts in the anime? It was always strange to me, but I put it off. There would be many many hints for that.
There is also the big part of
him talking with Deku about quirklessness and seeing him unpacking the belt thing he uses
and more. :) Regardless...hype time!

Only took a quick glimspe and saw it's Yuya but that's interesting cause I don't think I care at all about him being bad. At least Kaminari has a cool power so him turning out to be a villain would've at least led to some cool fights.

I feel bad for all those people that poured hours into making videos and dissertations about a key character swearing on their great great grandmothers grave that it was them. I love when writerse just completely do what the fandom doesnt expect.

Blue Exorcist did the classmate is a traitor thing really well. Wonder if MHA will.
It did it VERY well. I'm still impressed at how well that was handled.
I sincerely doubt MHA can top it.

Blue Exorcist dousnt get enough love imo. Love that manga especially since everything's gone to hell now.

People are sleeping on it and it's unfortunate cause it's a fantastic manga. And the current arc is fucking intense.

Wait, what??? There's a traitor in the series? Fuck.

Ehh, I'll probably forget (I won't) by the time I resume reading it.

Oh yeah, there was an anime... Is it worth watching? Does it stick to the canon? If not then I'll probably just stick to the manga. Still got a lot of other series to catch up to before I resume Blue Exorcist, though.

Anime S1 is alright, goes into its own dumb plot after episode 14 or 15. Not worth a watch beyond the fantastic OP1, and I say that as BlueExorcist Trash.
Anime S2 is fantastic! I don't know if you read the Kyoto arc in the manga but if not it may be better to watch the anime. It's 12 episodes and they're very well produced and well-directed. I watched S2 like 3-4 times.

I didnt read the spoilers but with how many theories that were made it is impossible that none would be incorrect.

This is legitimately awful opinion and I think you need to be called out on it.
Yeah normally I'm like "don't engage!" with DTLopinions but I mean damn

So, the interesting thing about Aoyama as the traitor is that it did seem to get telegraphed in a couple places, but his performance and behavior during the license exam and, to a lesser extent, the forest invasion would seem to point at... just the opposite? So I'm thinking this could be a headfake, or else there's something major we're missing about the him and his motives; it certainly won't be as simple as "ahah, all along I've loved evil!"

Maybe he really is quirkless, and AfO offered to give him a quirk in exchange for his service?

Aoyoma was theorized to be quirkless based on the belt and flashbacks of his about being different or something can't exactly remember

wouldn't explain the stomachache

So last night, as I was about to sleep, I thought to myself "It's still Thursday, there won't be any spoilers on Twitter yet. It'll be fine." So I checked Twitter.

I was wrong.

All I saw was a name, but... Gah! I hate myself. oTL

Ah, alright, cool. Sounds good! Will check those out then.
Saw this on twitter I'm dead XD

Narrator Deku is consistently overselling things every time he shows up, so at this point I'm expecting this to end with Deku as a quirkless salaryman.

I've been thinking about the Quirk Singularity. Could this tie into the story's long term goals? What do you think?
