blood enraged chapter 21 . 5/27
be sure to make a an chapter to this if you ever decide to continue the story, this is grade a material, and there is a criminal shortage of legacy of kain fanfics
blood enraged chapter 5 . 5/27
im only a few chapters in and im hooked, you have caught the spirit of the legacy of kain series, the speech patters especially, from janos to kain to raziel, its a thrill to see someone depict them so faithfully
Kingpin Lunamaria chapter 21 . 5/25
It would be great for a sequel to come around, not just because it would be fitting given who the characters get their powers and ideals from in this story, but because the rivalries between the different characters demand it. This story is an example of that which I enjoy most out of those with conflict, the fact that some organizations and characters will never stop fighting unless one or the other can longer continue. They do so out of varying needs, and here with Izuku and Bakugou, it would be perfect as their ideals are perfectly conflicting.

- Nemesis
So Izuku to Shigareki and Shouta to Bakugou?

Still, least some of the other Pro-Heroes are beginning to wake up about how toxic he is and the additional wariness may help unravel that little conspiracy that Endeavour is setting up as well.

(As for Bakagou's rant? He forgot two key distinctions. Killing in a battle is different from the summary execution of what are essentially POW. It's the difference between a soldier and a war criminal.

The other aspect he forgot, killing in defense of self or others is legal, ergo he cannot label Izuku as a villain (so his entire starting premise in this story was asinine to begin with, but VERY in chsracter as well. So yeah, not impressed with his cognstive abilities) as that would mean he'd have to designate police snipers as the same. Like those snipers, Izuku has only killed those who were threatening the innocent. Which is something that Bakugou himself is guilty of considering his varying threats to his classmates who haven't broken any laws.

So for all his talk that Deku is s villain, he himself matches those criteria more and that's to joining a cabsl planning the overthrow of the legitimate government or their planning of premeditated murder as they are )

- Strength
Still something that he's going to have to train in though.

Going from Captain America (800 pounds) to Blade (1 ton) or Sabertooth (2 ton) isn't that bad.

But making the jump to one of the Spider women at 7 tons. That would throw off his technique by quite a bit and precisely for the reasons you highlighted.

(And it's something that he'll constantly want to keep on top of. Spiderman for instance went from base 10 tons to 20 tons, due to 2 mystical power ups. Each time he would've had to learn to adapt to the new normal. (Well, least till the "OMD" reset put him back at 10T.) This wouldn't be like with Ben Grimm or Colossus and them training to get stronger as that would be gradual and strength and control grow at the same time. No, with Izuku and how he acquires Quirks it'll be sudden boosts instead. So constant control training a la Naruto with chakra is a necessity.)

Knowing how strong he is exactly, what the effects will be on another if hit. Those are things he NEEDS to know, even if he doesn't want to know. If you catch my drift.

Plus, it can be a nice trump card that most others would not expect. Not enough room for a blade? TK and Glyphs being blocked? Opponent is trying to kill you? Either KO them or break them with a hard enough punch.

It's definitely not something that Endeavour for instance would expect.

Corrections:
*Yeah, I know, that's a filthy word, I hate being patient either. *

"as well" rather than "either", as there really isn't contrasting points being set up, merely that they must be patient even if they dislike it

Can't wait for more.
merendinoemiliano chapter 21 . 5/23
Quite nice chapters
Dragon Man 180 chapter 21 . 5/22
If there is a sequel, I got to wonder is Shouto will find incriminating evidence of Flaming Trash Can being part of his group lying around the house at some point and have to run to Izuku to warn him.

Eri hugging Dark Shadow is adorable!

A very nice wrap up, I do hope there is a sequel, maybe after the actual manga wraps up and more stuff about AFO might be revealed. But I like the idea of the Redestro Army being tied to Flaming Trash Can’s group, it makes sense with the idea of doing more and being unlimited.

Oh, and if Bakugou goes to Flaming Tradh Can for Work Studies can Shouto go to All Might?
LoamyCoffee chapter 21 . 5/22
This was good. Endeavour being backed by the same group as Bakugou and the possibility of Overhaul being resurrected was not unsurprising, knowing what I do about him. Also gives more reason as to why he wants to be the number one hero. So we've got multiple factions against the hero schools. Steep odds, but I believe there's a chance for them to win.
Lix231 chapter 19 . 5/22
Wow...so Izuku now has all abilities of the Soul Reaver, Super Stregnt rivaling All Might, Shok absorbation, Robes, Strenght Booster, Infrared sight and regeneration...my god by now Izuku is MUCH more OP than in Canon.

Cool job
Dragon Man 180 chapter 19 . 5/22
I can live with everyone being less injured. I just hope Izuku got all of Nomu's quirks so he can take on tougher opponents. But quite a few of his classmates saw him kill Nomu, so how will they react when he returns to class after waking up?
WearyCurmudgeon chapter 19 . 5/21
- Quirks
So something I've been wondering about, but did not expect to become relevant.

Quirks that bestow the same benefit. Do they stack? So for example a 2x and 3x strength Quirks. Does only one apply? Or do they add up to 5x? Or is it cumulative st 6x?

This because Izuku already had one Strength Quirk and has now gained another.

Also the shock absorption and healing factor will come in handy if Bakagou tries something. As explosions are more kinetic force else.

Z.L.C. genesmith chapter 19 . 5/21
Well, at least the pro-heroes are starting to notice just how dark Bakugo is becoming. That means they'll be keeping a much closer eye on him than ever before. Who knows? Maybe one of them will catch him just as he decides to plunge headfirst into the abyss laid before him by whatever is whispering into his mind. Though when he DOES fall of his own volition? It'll only be according to plan for his manipulator.

After all, "Who better to serve me, than those who's passions transcend all notion of good and evil"?
