Wait.... could AMAI MASK be a monster himself? His obsession with Beauty could be his desire to still be a human despite what he is. He might hate other monsters, because they remind him of his true horrible self; danm, that would be a good plot twist.
Isaiah Garraway Maybe..Maybe not, I’m just wondering if he’s a monster for the common trait of monsters in that world being more prone to violence & arrogant personality types; combined that with the usual monster’s “I’m better then any lowly human!!” Traits. You could get a human in the process of being a monster, but still wanting to be human. Maybe he’s becoming a monster, but he’s trying to stay as human as possible; however, he’s still suffering from the mind altering traits of a monster’s personality. Just look at the Monster Association, a lot of people who were considerably nice, became a lot like Mr. Mask.
Incarnation_Of_Immortality Probably, he's especially considerably more brutal than even most heroes that noneshalantly kill monsters in brutal fashion.
Isaiah Garraway Maybe he doesn’t like to go all out.. Cough..Going Into that disgusting looking transformation..Cough....because he looses more of his humanity the more he does it. For that line at the end, when he asked the “Cola crew”. .....Whahahaha.... ( I’ll actually laugh if they get renamed to that! ).. Ahem.. as I was Quoting! “What if I became a monster right in front of all of you.” That made me wonder: is he a human with the strength of a monster, or is he a monster in the form of a human. Here’s another thing to consider, we only see Monsters’ with dramatically different looking biological transformations. Hell, even Pri-Pri Prisoner’s, Quote On Quote, transformation is only a bulk-up that rips his damm clothing! There’s a difference between bulking up & an actual temporary metamorphosis, which is what Mr. Mask seems to go through.
If one is endangered and a random stranger offered his help, one would have hope but no expectations from the good Samaritan. On the other hand, if a professional rescuer answers your call for help, you're entitled to both hope and expectation. The promise that a professional hero makes is a very serious one. There is a faith in them and that faith must be kept or there is no point to the Hero Association. It is this that Amai Mask understands and guards. He is especially harsh on the S-Class because when you call on one of them, you expect any monster other than a dragon (which are blessedly rare) to be destroyed.
I don’t know, compared to the other heroes he seems like the most realistic interpretation of a high ranking hero that also has a large amount of responsibly to the organization. He’s head of PR which means he has a lot more investment in the business then other heroes, he also is a celebrity who is completely connected to the hero association. This means any mistakes made by the S class heroes directly effects his business, his career, and his image. So I think he’s pretty justified
Kingly night He does have valid points and criticisms. (though the invasion one he was a little to harsh) Not to mention its a world of blood thirsty monsters so it makes sense you have to be harsher to match them.
Kye Dysarthria It's actually a duty, since Heroes are actually getting paid to be heroes by the Association and the Association gets the money to pay them from the people themselves, so the "heroes" on OPM is kinda like police actually, no different from "heroes" on Boku no Academia.
@Rock Styler He did have a point about the media not seeing them defeating the aliens as how they see it. But he did go a little much since the fact the threat happened so quick. Hell anime wise they got lucky as in the manga there were no survivors but Iaian.
The reason Amai mask liked Genos was because he was ruthless when it came to dispensing "Justice" but Saitama humbled him and he is no longer what Amai considers a good hero. Genos pretty much says the same thing after Amai kills those alien survivors.
Lord Nib Hmmm... You know, it’s possible that Amai Mask might get humbled by Saitama too, if he’s exposed to him enough. Maybe... (thinking about how all those other heroes keep hanging out around him)
Honestly, Amai Mask is one of my favorite heroes. So many people believe him to be simply a narcissistic asshole, and completely ignore his strength and sense of justice. He cares about the safety of the people much more than many of the other S class heroes, and wants to ensure anyone that gets into S Class fulfills their duty as a hero. When city A was leveled, he was furious that the heroes not only showed vulnerability but also failed to protect the civilians of the city. Yeah he was a jackass about it, but that is because he needs to be. If he were much more down to earth and likeable, that would defeat the purpose of his character. He is an asshole that puts the safety of the people first, and believes that a hero's first duty is to defeat evil as efficiently as possible in order to ensure that no damage is done to innocents. He becomes the asshole when a hero fails to do so. When the monsters attacked during his concert, he knew that immediately shifting into hero mode would cause the people to panic and would only result in deaths and injuries. Instead, he handled it with grace and strength, not allowing the people to be frightened and killing the monsters immediately. People really do underestimate how strong and good hearted he truly is. His mask is that of a narcissistic asshole, but inside he fights for the right cause.
Just to bring this up i believe what amai mask does about keeping the other heroes in A-class is really good if not anytime the A-class rank 1 gets there he'll go to S-class for example personally i believe pri-prisioner doesn't belong to the s-class rank even tank top master what amai mask does is a control system that works perfect for the association really... 🤔
allenwalker811 TTM actually does deserve his rank, I don't see why he wouldn't. But yeah Amai mask is good for keeping the flawed system somewhat intact by having barriers for people who they to rank to s.
I love Amai Mask, tbh. He's the kind of character I thought I'd hate. Just some stupid idol type character, and yes, while he shares those traits, like being full of himself, Amai Mask actually backs it up. He is genuinely strong, which surprised the shit out of me at first since a lot of heroes even in A class had been rather disappointing. So then him being impressive suddenly made me appreciate his attitude. He's kind of a badass, a character you enjoy watching be a smug asshole even if you also think they could stand to be knocked down a peg once in a while. Idk, I just think he's an appealing character, and I like how serious he is compared to what I assumed he'd be when he was first introduced. I don't agree with his morals either, but I like that it makes his character feel a bit more complex with a potential room for character growth if he ever learns to get over himself and learn to appreciate others.
Amai Mask was always one of my least favorite characters, not just because of his personality, but because he didn't get very many moments in the story so he was pretty low on my radar, but after the monster association arc where he got his moment with Saitama he ended up becoming one of my favorites, I love what One did with him in the last few chapters of the webcomic
Wait... Didn't genos get rank S not because of his perfect score, but because he blew up and took credit for the defeating The House of Evolution, and thereby Carnage Kabuto? I thought they informed Amai Mask AFTER he was already ranked S class.?
Also what a hypocrite berating the S class after A got leveled. It's like dude you were in the next town over and did nothing, most likely he noticed the ship but finished shooting his drama before heading out.
VideoNinjaJim He was a little harsh on his berating if the s class but he does have legit reason why it looks bad. S class has been put on such a high pedestal that any fuck up can can damage their reputation and the association as a whole.
VideoNinjaJim The thing is Cities in OPM is actually kinda like US States sized ones, so being in a "nearby" city still means is equivalent to being in another state.
Amai mask wants them to be prepared for threats they can't see coming, but kills the hostages that could have been used to find out things like, more ships on the way, some sort of last resort bullshit from the ship, or lots of possible threats that could be left over.
@Rock Styler Amai Mask is not a "genuinly good hero" though. Not even close. He kills every monster he meets indiscriminately, even when specifically told to spare their life. I'm not saying he's a villain or anything (I don't think that's where his character is going), but he's not a good guy either. He's actually very similar to Genos, which Genos himself notices. They both have insane levels of lethal conviction due to past trauma. Genos wants to find and destroy the cyborg that killed his family. Amai Mask probably wants something similar, but on a larger scale. My guess is that some monsters did something horrible to him. Maybe they killed his family. Maybe they mutated him into whatever he is. Either way, that's probably why he wants to destroy all monsters. Amai Mask is probably not going to be a villain. My guess is that when Saitama reaches class A rank 2 or rank 1, we'll get him as an antagonist (not a villain) for a while. Then, his backstory will get revealed, he will be defeated and will need to grow from his mistakes (learning that not every monster should die on the spot because some monsters hurt him as a child or whatever they did do him).
While Amai Mask having a breakdown seems inevitable, i can't see him dropping out of the association at this point. With Saitama now in class A, we will probably see more from him as the rank 1 obstacle, similar to how Mumen Rider and Fubuki got as much focus as they did.
I mean obstacle only in the sense that Saitama would have to take rank 1 from him (at least temporarily) in order to reach class S. Mumen Rider has nothing against Saitama and in fact celebrated him reaching class B. Fubuki may have opposed Saitama at first, but by the time he moved to class A, she was taking inspiration from him instead. Saitama may end up winning Amai Mask over in the end. We'll just have to wait and see (though it will probably be a while).
DAMNIT, TEKKING!!! I was JUST about to start up my Hollow Knight save, and what do I see?!?!? A Tekking video on Amai Mask! FFS, MAN! Another 24:02 until I get to play HK, I guess...
You may not have all the facts and correct things about anime, but you are just like us, you pretty much act out what we think in our head, which is very enjoyable to watch, your are the first youtuber that I subscribed and bell notify and add the people like joy boy just based on your own opinion. So keep doing your thing, you will get bigger, but dont change.
That's what I'm thinking. Zombieman is and he can outright regenerate, and he's really handsome. Genos also was suspicious of Amai Mask, thinking that he had some sort of trauma in his past. Also, Sweet Mask's altered state looks suspiciously in some ways like Carnage Kabuto's Carnage Mode...
I actually like Amai Mask as a pseudo-antagonist, so to speak. His motivations are quite interesting and I hope he gets his own fleshed out backstory. *I disagree with where you rank him among the Hero Association and can easily see him among the Top 3 with only Tatsumaki, Blast, & Saitama being stronger than him. It seems like he hasn't used his full power because he puts restrictions on himself to still look beautiful while fighting.*
According to the web novel he seems to be stronger than Atomic Samurai. Now it's hard to gauge how Flashy Flash and Atomic Samurai would match up, but the fact that Amai Mask outperformed Atomic Samurai does indicate he's extremely powerful, easily in the upper echelons of the S rank. I believe he would thrash Metal Bat easily, and probably defeat Atomic Samurai high diff.
Not necessarily, he was getting pretty rekt like everyone else. There was even a point where Garou stated he could easily catch him. Garou was toying with him like the others.
Actually, in the webcomic we see him talk about true beauty while looking at Saitama. I believe his view of true beauty is strength and not just looks.
I dont think he ll win against Saitama, No matter how strong he is. Well he hasnt lost his hair yet. So yeah. Just assume he is not as string as Saitama. Lol.
Kook Nagisa It isn't an assumption that he isn't as strong as Saitama. It's a proven fact. Sweet Mask, with the help of S-Class heroes, was beaten by Awakened Garou who was only toying with them. Garou used his full power and even mutated during the battle yet still didn't stand a chance against Saitama. Saitama was still holding back too.
He will go crazy and then that's were blast steps in and destroys him in one blast, then after some character ark with Blast Saitima decides to fight him just because he thinks he's better, which end with Saitma winning with very serious punch
I don't understand why the creators didn't let any other hero face boros..come on,it could have lasted longer, and then finally Saitama would show up and beat him with his series of serious punches.
Your prediction came true, even if it was bit off. I personally love Amai Mask after he was banished, as it gives a good explanation for his actions and personality. He teetered on the edge of insanity, and kept his sanity in check by killing anything he perceived as evil. And when reveals his true self to the masses, he doesn't do it simply to kill a monster, but to save people, as a hero, as a human, should. Saitama's words, "After, we're human," pissed him off at first, as he doesn't consider himself human anymore, but then realizes that he is still human, and was only on the edge because of fear of becoming a monster. If Saitama hadn't said what he said, then those people would be dead, and Amai Mask would have truly become a monster.
I truly didn't like him as a character until after all that stuff went down in the webcomic and now I'll die on a hill to defend him.. I just want to know where he is and if he's ok mentally 🥺
The cut arm is possible. There is a girl in the Philippines who was run by a train and it cut her arm off. Because it was a clean cut, they've managed to stitch it and it healed normally.
webcomic spoilers. . . . His abilities in short: - Insane regeneration, he also has the ability to reattach severed limbs. - Insane durability, he was able to tank a dragon-level monster's attacks even tho he was unable to fight back(his opponent was ugly and it turns out amai mask is unable to move when faced with extreme ugliness) - Enhanced strength, he was able to easily lift and throw a giant boulder and he is able to slice through his enemies with his bare hands. - Transformation(?), when he attacks his body becomes all veiny and messed up, we don't really know much about it but it will probably get addressed as the series progresses or maybe in the redraw. the full extent of amai mask's powers are still unknown, he definetly has some kind of a secret or probably hidden power and there are many theories out there about him and his powers.
I just thought about something... You know that when people in Saitama’s world take something to an extreme all the time they become a monster? Doesn’t that whole thing with the veins make you think Amai Mask is in the process of becoming a monster seeing how he’s obsessed with strength even to the point that he’s not caring as much about beauty? Which he values highly.
Hey Tekking why don't you make Q&A videos about One Piece and One Punch Man (mostly one piece). We ask you questions, tell you our theories and you answer with facts or your personal opinion choosingthe question randomly. That way, you basically let us participate in your videos. It would be awesome to see our questions to appear in one of your videos.
I like AMAI MASK and his character, he's so cool, good looking & strong. I know he acts mean but there is a character like him in every anime/show. But that's my opinion, don't start to hate me for that.
Anybody noticed that Sweet Mask's attacks are similar to Nanto Suchio Ken from HNK/FotNS? He's pretty much just like Rei from the original anime in being kind of full of himself too.
Following your channel now for over 3 years now i kinda got immune to cringe. I think only one video made me feel uncomfortable in the last year. The most cringe i remember was your Bleach intro compilation, i couldn‘t handle that.
He strikes a very interesting parallel with Tatsumaki. Tatsumaki is an arrogant powerhouse, is mean to everyone and doesn't care what people think of her, and kills monsters in the most efficient way possible. Amai Mask, on the other hand, is more into keeping up appearances and will superficially be nice to people when the public is watching but in private is a complete snob at best and a sadistic monster at worst. Still, his ideals (heroes have to basically be gods and save everyone all the time and prevent natural disasters from happening, and if there's a single civilian casualty then they can't call themselves heroes) seem to have been adopted by he My Hero Academia universe, which has a media that badmouths superheroes whenever they don't outright win.
Not objective morality but a specific kind of morality nevertheless. Though I don't like him in general, his point of view or maybe his actions is the one that I would have adapted considering the gravity of the situation. The perspective of the people does matter and from that perspective it seems as if they are under an authority that is powerless to protect them.
So his current alias is "Sweet Mask/Handsome Kamen" so if he goes full veiny and super strong, would he change it to something like "Scarred Mask/Scarred Kamen?" That'd be neat.
The prevailing theory is that he is actually a monster who obsessed over beauty and turned into a handsome human. Also whenever he gets angry he starts to get being and revert back to a monster.
A theory accurately suggests that AMAI MASK , himself is a monster under the coat of handsomely masked idol .it is believed that he later got obsessed with the beauty and converted into a a handsomely masked hero. Anime also provide hints to his monster instincts sometimes, especially when he encounters a monster ,his face gets covered by veins and his eyes become blood red .

Amai mask wants them to be prepared for threats they can't see coming, but kills the hostages that could have been used to find out things like, more ships on the way, some sort of last resort bullshit from the ship, or lots of possible threats that could be left over.
Yea, that's his one act I found to be reprehensible.
Imagine if Hero Killer Stain met this guy. That would be a great encounter
Amai would kill his ass
Characters in BNHA are generally much weaker than in other shounen mangas. I feel like even all might would get bodied by most S class heroes
@@exeterra4825 he would get bodied by an A class hero
Feel like he'll be the next "big" villain after Garou
@Rock Styler Amai Mask is not a "genuinly good hero" though. Not even close. He kills every monster he meets indiscriminately, even when specifically told to spare their life.
I'm not saying he's a villain or anything (I don't think that's where his character is going), but he's not a good guy either. He's actually very similar to Genos, which Genos himself notices. They both have insane levels of lethal conviction due to past trauma. Genos wants to find and destroy the cyborg that killed his family. Amai Mask probably wants something similar, but on a larger scale. My guess is that some monsters did something horrible to him. Maybe they killed his family. Maybe they mutated him into whatever he is. Either way, that's probably why he wants to destroy all monsters.
Amai Mask is probably not going to be a villain. My guess is that when Saitama reaches class A rank 2 or rank 1, we'll get him as an antagonist (not a villain) for a while. Then, his backstory will get revealed, he will be defeated and will need to grow from his mistakes (learning that not every monster should die on the spot because some monsters hurt him as a child or whatever they did do him).
While Amai Mask having a breakdown seems inevitable, i can't see him dropping out of the association at this point. With Saitama now in class A, we will probably see more from him as the rank 1 obstacle, similar to how Mumen Rider and Fubuki got as much focus as they did.
burk314 I don't know about obstacle since know Amai mask loves Saitama power and saw it as beautiful.
I mean obstacle only in the sense that Saitama would have to take rank 1 from him (at least temporarily) in order to reach class S. Mumen Rider has nothing against Saitama and in fact celebrated him reaching class B. Fubuki may have opposed Saitama at first, but by the time he moved to class A, she was taking inspiration from him instead.
Saitama may end up winning Amai Mask over in the end. We'll just have to wait and see (though it will probably be a while).
burk314 Well Mumen knows he couldn't do much if he ranked up hut I can see what your saying.
This video needs a lot of updating
DAMNIT, TEKKING!!! I was JUST about to start up my Hollow Knight save, and what do I see?!?!? A Tekking video on Amai Mask! FFS, MAN! Another 24:02 until I get to play HK, I guess...
Side note: What if Amai Mask is some sort of shape shifter? That may explain why his body has such strange characteristics.
hey tekking is it too much to ask to make updated versions of these? a lot has happened and i’d definitely love to hear your thoughts on them
When’s your album coming out? We need some more cringe!
You may not have all the facts and correct things about anime, but you are just like us, you pretty much act out what we think in our head, which is very enjoyable to watch, your are the first youtuber that I subscribed and bell notify and add the people like joy boy just based on your own opinion. So keep doing your thing, you will get bigger, but dont change.
Why are you all the sudden my favorite youtuber?
I wouldn't be surprised if he was actually an experimental creature, like from the House of Evolution or some similar group.
That's what I'm thinking. Zombieman is and he can outright regenerate, and he's really handsome. Genos also was suspicious of Amai Mask, thinking that he had some sort of trauma in his past. Also, Sweet Mask's altered state looks suspiciously in some ways like Carnage Kabuto's Carnage Mode...
23:00 the way he said it 😂😂😂
I actually like Amai Mask as a pseudo-antagonist, so to speak. His motivations are quite interesting and I hope he gets his own fleshed out backstory. *I disagree with where you rank him among the Hero Association and can easily see him among the Top 3 with only Tatsumaki, Blast, & Saitama being stronger than him. It seems like he hasn't used his full power because he puts restrictions on himself to still look beautiful while fighting.*
viktorayy :D i cant see him being stronger than Flashy Flash.The guy is as fast as light,what could amai mask do against him?
According to the web novel he seems to be stronger than Atomic Samurai. Now it's hard to gauge how Flashy Flash and Atomic Samurai would match up, but the fact that Amai Mask outperformed Atomic Samurai does indicate he's extremely powerful, easily in the upper echelons of the S rank. I believe he would thrash Metal Bat easily, and probably defeat Atomic Samurai high diff.
Metal bat fighting spirit is limitless as far as i know
Sushimada Flashy Flash would definitely win. Flashy Flash was legit the only S rank hero who could evade Awakened Garous attacks.
Not necessarily, he was getting pretty rekt like everyone else. There was even a point where Garou stated he could easily catch him. Garou was toying with him like the others.
Actually, in the webcomic we see him talk about true beauty while looking at Saitama. I believe his view of true beauty is strength and not just looks.
I honestly dont know how u became one of my favourite youtubers, lol. Keep up the good work ^_^
You deserve more subscribers.
It’s nice to see a manga and anime nerd so loved by his viewers. Awesome videos tekking
He seems like a cool hero.
Sora Shiun'in cool hero? Hahahahahaahaahahaahahahaahahah
he gay
He's a douchebag, but powerwise, he's pretty cool
I dont think he ll win against Saitama, No matter how strong he is. Well he hasnt lost his hair yet. So yeah. Just assume he is not as string as Saitama. Lol.
Kook Nagisa
It isn't an assumption that he isn't as strong as Saitama. It's a proven fact. Sweet Mask, with the help of S-Class heroes, was beaten by Awakened Garou who was only toying with them. Garou used his full power and even mutated during the battle yet still didn't stand a chance against Saitama. Saitama was still holding back too.
He will go crazy and then that's were blast steps in and destroys him in one blast, then after some character ark with Blast Saitima decides to fight him just because he thinks he's better, which end with Saitma winning with very serious punch
You making up so many songs you should make an album
I love the recent chapters on amai
Tekking's cringe is so powerful that it could weaken Amai Mask
I really enjoyed Amai Masks badass 1 inch punch he did against one of the earlier monsters to crush its head..
Surprised you didnt go over it.
Otaku Jin Can't wait to see how badass hell be when he fights black sperm.
Amai Mask and Akainu team up
Nicodemus Edwards Jesus Christ
I was thinking about this the whole video 😂❤️
Hes to ugly for him!
Daddy
That's a terrifying thought
@tekken this video made me want to start reading the manga and I was not disappointed.Thank you
Finally the vid of my fav hero
AMAII KUUUN KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I don't understand why the creators didn't let any other hero face boros..come on,it could have lasted longer, and then finally Saitama would show up and beat him with his series of serious punches.
Oooh bloody hell, SOOOO MUCH CRIIIIIIIINNNNNNGGGEEEEE
Your prediction came true, even if it was bit off. I personally love Amai Mask after he was banished, as it gives a good explanation for his actions and personality. He teetered on the edge of insanity, and kept his sanity in check by killing anything he perceived as evil. And when reveals his true self to the masses, he doesn't do it simply to kill a monster, but to save people, as a hero, as a human, should. Saitama's words, "After, we're human," pissed him off at first, as he doesn't consider himself human anymore, but then realizes that he is still human, and was only on the edge because of fear of becoming a monster. If Saitama hadn't said what he said, then those people would be dead, and Amai Mask would have truly become a monster.
I truly didn't like him as a character until after all that stuff went down in the webcomic and now I'll die on a hill to defend him.. I just want to know where he is and if he's ok mentally 🥺
FINALLLY the most wanted First man in the A club
The cut arm is possible. There is a girl in the Philippines who was run by a train and it cut her arm off. Because it was a clean cut, they've managed to stitch it and it healed normally.
I'm just curious, but what is amai mask's abilities?
webcomic spoilers.
.
.
.
His abilities in short:
- Insane regeneration, he also has the ability to reattach severed limbs.
- Insane durability, he was able to tank a dragon-level monster's attacks even tho he was unable to fight back(his opponent was ugly and it turns out amai mask is unable to move when faced with extreme ugliness)
- Enhanced strength, he was able to easily lift and throw a giant boulder and he is able to slice through his enemies with his bare hands.
- Transformation(?), when he attacks his body becomes all veiny and messed up, we don't really know much about it but it will probably get addressed as the series progresses or maybe in the redraw.
the full extent of amai mask's powers are still unknown, he definetly has some kind of a secret or probably hidden power and there are many theories out there about him and his powers.
Is is called a monster by Fubuki
“You’re Monsterous like Amai Mask And my Sister”
I just thought about something... You know that when people in Saitama’s world take something to an extreme all the time they become a monster? Doesn’t that whole thing with the veins make you think Amai Mask is in the process of becoming a monster seeing how he’s obsessed with strength even to the point that he’s not caring as much about beauty? Which he values highly.
Blake Jones Well he still considers beauty however it's now completely warped after seeing Saitama fight Garou.
Hey Tekking why don't you make Q&A videos about One Piece and One Punch Man (mostly one piece). We ask you questions, tell you our theories and you answer with facts or your personal opinion choosingthe question randomly. That way, you basically let us participate in your videos. It would be awesome to see our questions to appear in one of your videos.
i literally just watched at 1.5 speed and didn't notice until half way through. And than, i changed it to two
Garyuganshupoopadoop... now that sounds like an awesome character
*Geryuganshoop.
Makes me so happy when a tekking vid comes out
I like AMAI MASK and his character, he's so cool, good looking & strong. I know he acts mean but there is a character like him in every anime/show.
But that's my opinion, don't start to hate me for that.
Mohit Rawat i mean u can like asshole characters but it doesnt make him less of a scummy twat
Mohit Rawat typical girly teen lol
Anybody noticed that Sweet Mask's attacks are similar to Nanto Suchio Ken from HNK/FotNS? He's pretty much just like Rei from the original anime in being kind of full of himself too.
Except Puri Puri from 17 to 16, when Genos when up by one to 17.
10:10 when you tell your teacher you couldn’t finish your homework because the rest of your family died in a fire
I'm pretty sure Amai Mask is being set up as a future antagonist. Something similar to Tatsumaki, anyway.
I've waited for this one!
Following your channel now for over 3 years now i kinda got immune to cringe. I think only one video made me feel uncomfortable in the last year.
The most cringe i remember was your Bleach intro compilation, i couldn‘t handle that.
The moment ehen you realize that you can‘t wait for the moment when Garou faces Amai Mask
Yooo tekking done started talking bout them A class...letz get it
He strikes a very interesting parallel with Tatsumaki. Tatsumaki is an arrogant powerhouse, is mean to everyone and doesn't care what people think of her, and kills monsters in the most efficient way possible. Amai Mask, on the other hand, is more into keeping up appearances and will superficially be nice to people when the public is watching but in private is a complete snob at best and a sadistic monster at worst. Still, his ideals (heroes have to basically be gods and save everyone all the time and prevent natural disasters from happening, and if there's a single civilian casualty then they can't call themselves heroes) seem to have been adopted by he My Hero Academia universe, which has a media that badmouths superheroes whenever they don't outright win.
Isnt it because Metal knight rebuild City in a few days, that no one talked about it afterwards?
Not objective morality but a specific kind of morality nevertheless. Though I don't like him in general, his point of view or maybe his actions is the one that I would have adapted considering the gravity of the situation. The perspective of the people does matter and from that perspective it seems as if they are under an authority that is powerless to protect them.
Holy shit I got here first to the point where it doesn't even say it's even got any views
I'm looking forward to Garou vs. Amai Mask in the Maruda Version. Their clashing ideals of what a Hero should be is a great combo.
0:12 How many takes did it take for you to do that
Yay tekking video!!! Hope youre better Mat.
Where is the fubiki tit video
😂😂😂
Been waitin for this one u like to review my fav anime keep it up
Tekking's cringe has now surpassed S-class.
God level monster cringe
So his current alias is "Sweet Mask/Handsome Kamen" so if he goes full veiny and super strong, would he change it to something like "Scarred Mask/Scarred Kamen?" That'd be neat.
I dont listen to justin timberlake anymore but i feel you, he's legit a good artist indeed.
The prevailing theory is that he is actually a monster who obsessed over beauty and turned into a handsome human. Also whenever he gets angry he starts to get being and revert back to a monster.
Where do I buy the tickets?
They are only available on the black market?
that's what I thought...
A theory accurately suggests that AMAI MASK , himself is a monster under the coat of handsomely masked idol .it is believed that he later got obsessed with the beauty and converted into a a handsomely masked hero.
Anime also provide hints to his monster instincts sometimes, especially when he encounters a monster ,his face gets covered by veins and his eyes become blood red .
When is Garou coming up.........
When Murata is done with him.
Oh wow! I used to watch your Bleach video's yeeeaars ago. Dressing down these days but good to see still going strong 💪
Hey. So i watched your live and how your afraid to use Peroxide in your ears, and how you might of messed up. When you use it in your ears wait 5 mins then flush water. i get ear infections alot and thats what my doc tells me everytime.
Sorry for the rant
Tekking101 is a good critic of animas, I remember him from Bleach time. I did fallow him and learned a lot about that complicated history.
where did you get the big one punch man poster behind you? i like it
KingmullacPro they sell them on amazon and it's a wall scroll.
@Tekking101 I want a full video of tekking singing his heart out right now!
