Destro's mom referred to his meta ability as "just a quirk of his"; while that originally led to scorn and her eventual murder, it eventually became the common term for meta abilities (possibly thanks to Dextro's notoriety).
While true im not sure he ever even tried to make this many clones before. So in a way his new age mentality combined with the sanity limiter release is a bit of a level up
I would say he figured out an ultimate move which is a level up in a way, but it is also true that he in a way was always capable of this While toga was never able to copy quirks until now in this high stress moment
Twice is actually considered to be the same threat level as the likes of AFO and Shigaraki. His ability to make infinite reinforcements of himself and even of others is insanely OP.
Honestly, the league of villains’ comradery, while threatening the world, is kinda wholesome in a weird way. Despite these circumstances, Twice honestly seems like a good guy all things considered. The world just didn’t give him the chance to show it.
Montana being genuinely touched when Twice overcame his trauma and doubled infinitely is so sweet. 🥰 Also, Newton Pittman (aka Gray from Fairy Tail) kills it as Twice this episode. 🤣🤣
For real though. When I first watched that scene of him breaking down, I think I rewinded it like 4 to 5 times, with how enamored I was with it. I also feel like it could go crazy in a song.
I recently started watching Fairy Tail and was bombarded with known voices. Ling Yao as Natsu, Twice as Gray, Hawkeye as Erza and All Might/ Alex Luis Armstrong as Elfman
@jakubgodyn7413 Keep going. There are SO many more. Tsu as Mirajane, Mt. Lady as Cana, Pixie Bob as Lucy, to name a few. Edit: Yaoyarozu is Hawkeye and Erza, too.
@@jakubgodyn7413 that's always a fun game. My first culture shock was Pokemon and Slayers. The amount of overlap of voice actors between the two shows was crazy to me at the time.
i love twice.. as someone with depression and my fair share of things to deal with. i resonate a lot with him.. 4:43 ''You know what somebody who is circling the drain really wants?.. An easy life.''
Hard to say. In theory, sure. But then you mix in AFO's personality it gets... complex. When the second AFO decides it's best he become the first... well, I can see why AFO might not have wanted to chance this one. It's far from a guarantee he'd turn on himself, he's got a very interesting personality in that respect, but it's not exactly a zero chance either. Especially with some of the possibilities that other collected quirks might offer. Considering AFO knows this, and believes in playing the long game, I can see why he didn't.
Oh, I so love Twice. He may be a villain, but he is definitely one of the best and truest friends a person could hope for. He'd be absolutely legendary if you need help moving
Twice is interesting because he seems to be one of the few characters that don't accidentally activate their quirk when they have an emotional outburst, but instead fails to use it
Man, I forgot how insanely hype Villain Academia is. The big reveal at 24:04 of the _real_ Shigaraki finally reaching the tower. So small, but _so good_
It's heavily implied later that Geten (the ice user) is a not-so-distant cousin of Todoroki's (on his mother's side, of course). Also, you're going to love the story of the only time Skeptic ever failed. It won't be revealed until Season Seven, but it is hilarious.
I believe the implication is that Rei (Todoroki's mom) was basically given the choice to either be sold to marry Endeavor or continue her family's bloodline by inbreeding with another ice quirk holder. She says something along the lines of Endeavor actually being the lesser of two evils at some point. Rei and Geten's family's practices are likely what made Geten become a villain to escape the inbreeding.
I caught up just in time to see Shigaraki's origin live!!! Thank god!!! (Also, to touch on a point you guys talked about a few episodes ago, yes Toga's love for Uraraka is meant to be the same kind of love as her love for Deku. An early character sheet for her says she loves regardless of gender.)
If I understand correctly, Re-Destro isn't Destro's *son,* but his descendant, like grandson or great-grandson. Destro died long enough ago that Re-Destroy is too young to be his son.
Jin Bubaigawara Villain Name: Twice Quirk: Double Grade: Formerly S to F, now JUST S Class: Combat/Espionage/Stealth I would rank this quirk at #6 in top 10 quirks in the show. There are NO LIMITS for how long this power lasts in sheer longevity, and like Toga, he has a SERIOUS snowball effect. Just 17 seconds to make 130,000 duplicates uninterrupted full commitment. Even if you DO disrupt him, he can just refocus elsewhere. Getting a perimeter around his swarms is all but impossible. Why would I rank this as an S-tier? Simple. If he decides to duplicate someone en masse like say, a NOMU. Well. How much force does it take to break THEIR arms? That force is RELATIVE to the copy. That’s why when he copied Rappa in season 4 he was disappointed that Rappa went down in one hit. (In fairness, he was up against Sir Nighteye who is RIDICULOUSLY broken among heroes) AIZAWA would even struggle against this because you’d have to find the RELEVANT ones to erase, and we saw Dabi’s copies don’t melt when erased in season 3! All this to say, if he copies a NOMU or ANYTHING on that level en masse, we can say game over. The force to break their bones is so enormous it’s no different than just making an ENTIRE NEW NOMU. But what about Machia? He mentioned copying Dabi, the whole country would go down in flames in seconds! Or the worst case scenario. What if he doubled AFO. KEEP TWICE AWAY FROM AFO. If AFO sees the value and TAKES THIS QUIRK, THE HEROES LOSE. FULL STOP. Does he need weapons? No. Does he need armor? Honestly? No. Does he need more speed? More power? ITS ALL COVERED JUST by the sheer numbers this quirk generates. It HELPS, but that’s how much it has COMPLETELY on its own merits. The ONLY way this quirk gets any more dangerous than it is on a fundamental level is if AFO holds it. That’s IT. Tomoyasu Chikazoku MLA Codename: Skeptic Quirk: Anthropomorph Grade: D Class: Exploitatiton/Espionage This is a really interesting quirk. Turning refrigerators and desks into puppets to control with his high tech systems. Switching between at LEAST 8 manual use puppets is an IMMENSE feat coordinating their tasks, movements, moderating their power, everything that goes into it. He DEFINITELY has an advantage if he’s playing around with people’s phobias because from what I can tell it’s just the power of a person. He’s like a risk free Ectoplasm with shaping options. He doesn’t seem to be able to supercharge his creations out of that spectrum. But they don’t have body strains or anything like that and they have unlimited stamina. (Is he playing a mod of Sims or something to do this? He might be some master level hacker or whatever as a tech company executive but he could just be playing some kind of already made program to do this level of controlling.) He should play around with shapes a bit more to get like proportionately human sized animals. Imagine a human sized spider or something. This is a heavily versatility oriented quirk more than anything. Kagero Okuta Villain Name: Giran Quirk: Muddied Grade: D Class: Espionage Ok I was asked to do this one specifically so I’ll give it a try since this is the best episode to do this for. What Giran’s quirk does is a strike or touch of the head would mean the previous 5 minutes and next 5 minutes become very vague to you through minor amnesia. This is a BIZARRE quirk. Obviously for training, lengthening the time and moderating the level of amnesia are the explorations. Messing with their short term memory. And also just…find out if it’s a contact quirk. Because it’s not like twin impact where the impact itself is more important UNLESS he can control the amnesia episode level through said strike. And it DEFINITELY got weaker losing fingers in his dominant hand. And maybe he can get telepathy to pick and choose memories kept. It’s an interesting batch today! And there’s a LOT coming next episode.
So skeptic controls all his puppets through voice. He doesnt really need technology unless he's controlling them from a far (using cameras and transceivers). The puppets act the same way as when shinso brainwashes someone and capable of understanding commands, making them somewhat sentient. There's also no limit to the amount of puppets he has, but i guess a limit to how many he can manage to control. Although he doesn't always have to tell them what to do. He makes the puppets simply by touching an object, and they instinctively follow.
For Giran, any contact to the head means he can activate it. Doesnt matter if you get hit or just touches your face, you will forget. He also has the fingers on his other hand still. He probably uses it for negotiation, maybe gaslighting clients to better deals in his favor or getting out of trouble and arguments
@@tobofu5978great another situation like Manga Fukidashi where everything SCREAMS a certain kind of moderation but it’s something else. This show still finds ways to throw me off. XD
@@Kaempfdog to be fair it is a fixed amount of amnesia. He can't choose what memories you have, just erase the last 5 minutes and prevent the next 5 minutes. In combat, at most it will just debuff someone since for the next five minutes it'll just be hazy. I feel like thats a pretty good one on one counter to Nighteyes foresight. Even if you try to see the future, for five mins you wont be able to actively remember
Twice quirk just awaken in this my hero academia s5 ep and get stronger🔥🔥letgooo he break his limit!!proud of him,he massive character development here is amazing
Alright well a fight of 100,000 people vs….6 people rages on. With an infinite amount of possibilities of people coming from every direction and various motives for their cause and making everything better with numbers that are about half of the Japanese military, we start with Twice having an absolute kiniption. (As usual I’ll cover episodic cuts from the manga and how they fit in previous arcs. So no spoiler risk. Also character profiles) Being forced to watch puppets of his likeness tear off her gear and twist her neck. This is already at peak nightmare fuel for the guy with how Toga cared for him and had his back in the Overhaul raid. (This is a censored scene I’m ok with. Hearing cracking noises through that entire scene is A LOT and the visuals matching the circumstance) Giran is genuinely scared for Twice’s mental state worrying for his friend. It really does seem like he is closer to the league personally than assumed to have this kind of intel on them. Almost like he’s A watching his back but more likely watching theirs with these notes. And right when it’s about to hit its peak, WHOA, WHOA, ITS ALRIGHT EVERYTHING WILL BE ALRIGHT. Well the 1st thing we get is a true exploration of how things fell apart for Twice. Of course it doesn’t just all fall apart instantly there was a quiet build through his sheer loneliness. One car accident with a pedestrian spiraled him out of a job, living quarters, with no familial support and the guy lived homeless and alone. To take that loneliness to just talk to himself, probably for YEARS. Having that likely just had them both using different voices to feel like they had their own opinion. And while he worked together with himself, he wasn’t in sync. And as doubts about his life built up, he tried to take command of his life again as an individual. But the doubts had so thoroughly seeped in, his duplicates turned on him making all inner doubts outer. And what’s left is just him and the voice he provided himself with inner doubts. This is Twice at his core. And all he really had was Giran the broker who likely helped him get resources for his group crimes. Giran clearly gives lots of genuine thought for Twice with only the wrong connections. He knows which of the voices to listen to at any given moment, and wants the same thing for Twice as what Twice wants and needs. Confirmation. And at Twice’s LOWEST, with the most doubts he’s ever had, with everything crumbling down around him, Skeptic makes a CRUCIAL error. Giran and the league from the bottom of their heart never had a doubt this was the original and likely never needed that question to be asked. Probably from knowing his story they saw ENOUGH perspective of the original. But couldn’t convey it to him since he saw through all of their eyes. They WERE also him after all. And when his arms broke? It was the ONLY thing he needed confirmed. He’s the original. He didn’t duplicate and knows one thing. These puppets are doing the ONE THING he would never do. Hurt his teammates. And he lets loose. Infinite doubles is an UNDERSTATEMENT. Giran says you lost your numbers advantage. If it takes him just one second to make a double of himself (likely his fastest duplicate) it only takes 17 uninterrupted seconds of dedication to duplication and he’s OVER 100,000. In fact he’s over their 116,000 by over 15,000 people. Each one with the endless ambition to cover for and support his friends. The possibilities of his quirk went from fascinating to ENDLESS INSTANTLY. And if he say, decides to duplicate someone more DESTRUCTIVE at the tail end. Well. We have our 1st suspect for who destroyed Deika City. Jin Bubaigawara. What a way to close the gap. Skeptic of course miscalculating isn’t exactly the happiest about such a thing and even LESS for the cult leader Redestro to be the one to point it out to him. But it’s not a mistake! It’s a…tactical relocation of people I wasn’t expecting to use or have a quick switch in case such a circumstance occurred. (I am genuinely tempted to say his mistake. I won’t, but I love describing unbelievable beyond any reasonable circumstances. You just know the circumstances have to be absurd for him to go, yeah I awakened one of the most powerful quirks in the show AGAINST US on accident but it doesn’t rise to THAT situation.) Dabi has meanwhile whittled down Geten pretty soundly from the start of the fight. Geten is at an elemental disadvantage. Surely Dabi can help Compress fight…a guy who controls fences, a guy swinging a car like a battering ram, 2 stretch Armstrong’s and one of which I actually thought was living car exhaust for a second. Dabi does NOT care about helping. Why would he? Twice is showing his crowd surfing talents, posing, dancing, one is doing pushups, waiting their turn at a bus stop to climb on top, and one gasping for air after failing to go up a staircase. Oh and almost COMPLETELY overwhelming the MLA. (Seriously enjoy the Twice choppy animations they are amazing. One guy is just having a BAD time getting the same treatment Twice just got from the puppets Skeptic was using at the beginning of the episode) There ARE ways to get around Twice’s infinite doubles. Like being a major field setter like Geten. It appears might makes right for a status under their control. And Dabi seems to be running low on stamina while Geten seems to have MANY methods of longevity in combat. (And he had FRIENDLY FIRE to stop Twice for a little while) And Compress notes well we don’t have many ways of dealing with him. Let’s try and send Machia at him. (Also Hawks tries and fails to contact Dabi with a duffel bag at this juncture.) The Doctor HAPPILY complies waking him up early and now there’s just a giant MOUNTAIN running toward them. He’s UNREASONABLY fast for his size but obviously it’s his power that’s the most concerning. The Doctor is sending Machia at 116,000 people AND Twice AND the rest of the league without concern if he’ll win on HALF a rest break. Shigaraki is just so exhausted he’s remembering half of the conversations and Spinner is just keeping tabs on the guy. Just because Machia woke up doesn’t mean the fight stops. You still have to fight…flame wings, helicopter girl, guy doing his best impression of the dreamworks kid going to sit on the moon, giant rubber band man, blow horn face, energy spheres, 45 lb grocery bags (with rocket propelled produce), and guy slouching. And Twice comes to cover them from battle axe wings, airplane guy, death note and one punch man reference, Wolverine and Mr Fantastic’s kid, 4 arms, Greek statue and Bobobo, my trucker boss, and some guys grandpa doing a cannonball. (And they all have fabulous outfits) Shigaraki is too tired to be appreciative but he IS trying to anyway. He’s more focused on believe it or not Twice’s concerns for Giran. And even quotes his master when he thinks of going after Redestro. (One of the last lines All-Might hears before he deflates publicly for the 1st time in fact) Hanabata riles up the crowd and gets everyone flipping their lids. And Twice makes it to Redestro. (Someone straight up made a Doofenshmirtz redubbing on these scenes. Shoutout to KaiserNeko for being AMAZING. Look it up) And Twice brings copies of the whole league RIGHT to Redestro in an instant. And seems copying the confirmation of being the original Twice might NOT be the best idea but it his certainty to work together at least is across the whole board. Priority one was to check on Giran and at least they got THAT part accomplished. And probably one of the unsung funniest and best fights in this entire arc. Redestro vs Shigaraki’s copy. Ever seen a history lesson in REAL TIME as a slugfest goes down? Well now you have as the origin of the term quirks came about and none other than Destro’s mother was the 1st to come up with the term. Nothing fundamental changed but quelling protests a bit more. At least publicly. And Redestro questions what world would Shigaraki make if he DOES succeed to uproot the status quo what will HE create. WE have generations at our back but YOU?! (Fun fact: Redestro is anywhere between the 2nd Redestro and the 4th his title of the heir of the Destro bloodline is passed down. He’s either Reredestro, Rereredestro, or too many re’sdestro.) Sadly he doesn’t get an answer, as Shigaraki’s decay grows with every exhausted step collapsing the tower and eliminating the conversation. And now the main event of this conflict begins. I THINK I got it all. Still character profiles coming.
Machia waking up and launching himself is the scariest thing from this season, maybe along with tomuras episode and twice and toga getting broken up by skeptic puppets
Twice just being able to create two clones each doesn't seem like much... but, paraphrasing a famous fable, take a chessboard and put a grain of rice on the first square, two on the second one, four on the third one, and so on... and you'll run out of rice long before you run out of squares. What's probably limiting them is _lack of space to create the clones in,_ since all the space around most clones is already filled with clones. Also, it's not just _Twice_ clones... as we saw in the tower, any of the clones could also make two _of anyone Twice has measured before..._ like Tomura Shigaraki, for instance.
MY FAVORITE EPISODE OF THIS VOLUME!! I love Twice and I love his massive upgrade. It is just sad of what this leads to, since without this, it likely would not have happened.
Damn I'm just realizing Naruto could have ended up like twice with a broken mind. Sasuke said "Shadow clones jutsu is a way to hide your loneliness" (different anime)
I feel so bad for Twice. He's my lil' big boy that needs to be protected. You meet, learned of, The Mother of Quirks. When her son was born and was under attack, to protect him said "It's just his quirk." He son grew up to de Destro. I don't know about Re-Destro being the direct son of Destro, I feel like there should be another generation or two because he said that he's a decendant of Destro. I don't believe that she would believe is the MLA's ideas; she would have wanted for her son to live a normal life free of discrimination.
Sad Man's Parade snowballs very fast. I'd say spare space would fill with Twices at the speed of a running man. Characters you mentioned can potentially stop the expansion or reach the original one, but without knowing where exactly he is, fight becomes 1 human versus ∞ ants.

With an infinite amount of possibilities of people coming from every direction and various motives for their cause and making everything better with numbers that are about half of the Japanese military, we start with Twice having an absolute kiniption. (As usual I’ll cover episodic cuts from the manga and how they fit in previous arcs. So no spoiler risk. Also character profiles)
Being forced to watch puppets of his likeness tear off her gear and twist her neck. This is already at peak nightmare fuel for the guy with how Toga cared for him and had his back in the Overhaul raid. (This is a censored scene I’m ok with. Hearing cracking noises through that entire scene is A LOT and the visuals matching the circumstance) Giran is genuinely scared for Twice’s mental state worrying for his friend. It really does seem like he is closer to the league personally than assumed to have this kind of intel on them. Almost like he’s A watching his back but more likely watching theirs with these notes. And right when it’s about to hit its peak, WHOA, WHOA, ITS ALRIGHT EVERYTHING WILL BE ALRIGHT.
Well the 1st thing we get is a true exploration of how things fell apart for Twice. Of course it doesn’t just all fall apart instantly there was a quiet build through his sheer loneliness. One car accident with a pedestrian spiraled him out of a job, living quarters, with no familial support and the guy lived homeless and alone. To take that loneliness to just talk to himself, probably for YEARS. Having that likely just had them both using different voices to feel like they had their own opinion. And while he worked together with himself, he wasn’t in sync. And as doubts about his life built up, he tried to take command of his life again as an individual. But the doubts had so thoroughly seeped in, his duplicates turned on him making all inner doubts outer. And what’s left is just him and the voice he provided himself with inner doubts. This is Twice at his core. And all he really had was Giran the broker who likely helped him get resources for his group crimes. Giran clearly gives lots of genuine thought for Twice with only the wrong connections. He knows which of the voices to listen to at any given moment, and wants the same thing for Twice as what Twice wants and needs. Confirmation.
And at Twice’s LOWEST, with the most doubts he’s ever had, with everything crumbling down around him, Skeptic makes a CRUCIAL error. Giran and the league from the bottom of their heart never had a doubt this was the original and likely never needed that question to be asked. Probably from knowing his story they saw ENOUGH perspective of the original. But couldn’t convey it to him since he saw through all of their eyes. They WERE also him after all. And when his arms broke? It was the ONLY thing he needed confirmed. He’s the original. He didn’t duplicate and knows one thing. These puppets are doing the ONE THING he would never do. Hurt his teammates. And he lets loose.
Infinite doubles is an UNDERSTATEMENT. Giran says you lost your numbers advantage. If it takes him just one second to make a double of himself (likely his fastest duplicate) it only takes 17 uninterrupted seconds of dedication to duplication and he’s OVER 100,000. In fact he’s over their 116,000 by over 15,000 people. Each one with the endless ambition to cover for and support his friends. The possibilities of his quirk went from fascinating to ENDLESS INSTANTLY. And if he say, decides to duplicate someone more DESTRUCTIVE at the tail end. Well. We have our 1st suspect for who destroyed Deika City. Jin Bubaigawara. What a way to close the gap.
Skeptic of course miscalculating isn’t exactly the happiest about such a thing and even LESS for the cult leader Redestro to be the one to point it out to him. But it’s not a mistake! It’s a…tactical relocation of people I wasn’t expecting to use or have a quick switch in case such a circumstance occurred. (I am genuinely tempted to say his mistake. I won’t, but I love describing unbelievable beyond any reasonable circumstances. You just know the circumstances have to be absurd for him to go, yeah I awakened one of the most powerful quirks in the show AGAINST US on accident but it doesn’t rise to THAT situation.)
Dabi has meanwhile whittled down Geten pretty soundly from the start of the fight. Geten is at an elemental disadvantage. Surely Dabi can help Compress fight…a guy who controls fences, a guy swinging a car like a battering ram, 2 stretch Armstrong’s and one of which I actually thought was living car exhaust for a second. Dabi does NOT care about helping. Why would he? Twice is showing his crowd surfing talents, posing, dancing, one is doing pushups, waiting their turn at a bus stop to climb on top, and one gasping for air after failing to go up a staircase. Oh and almost COMPLETELY overwhelming the MLA. (Seriously enjoy the Twice choppy animations they are amazing. One guy is just having a BAD time getting the same treatment Twice just got from the puppets Skeptic was using at the beginning of the episode)
There ARE ways to get around Twice’s infinite doubles. Like being a major field setter like Geten. It appears might makes right for a status under their control. And Dabi seems to be running low on stamina while Geten seems to have MANY methods of longevity in combat. (And he had FRIENDLY FIRE to stop Twice for a little while) And Compress notes well we don’t have many ways of dealing with him. Let’s try and send Machia at him. (Also Hawks tries and fails to contact Dabi with a duffel bag at this juncture.)
The Doctor HAPPILY complies waking him up early and now there’s just a giant MOUNTAIN running toward them. He’s UNREASONABLY fast for his size but obviously it’s his power that’s the most concerning. The Doctor is sending Machia at 116,000 people AND Twice AND the rest of the league without concern if he’ll win on HALF a rest break. Shigaraki is just so exhausted he’s remembering half of the conversations and Spinner is just keeping tabs on the guy. Just because Machia woke up doesn’t mean the fight stops. You still have to fight…flame wings, helicopter girl, guy doing his best impression of the dreamworks kid going to sit on the moon, giant rubber band man, blow horn face, energy spheres, 45 lb grocery bags (with rocket propelled produce), and guy slouching. And Twice comes to cover them from battle axe wings, airplane guy, death note and one punch man reference, Wolverine and Mr Fantastic’s kid, 4 arms, Greek statue and Bobobo, my trucker boss, and some guys grandpa doing a cannonball. (And they all have fabulous outfits) Shigaraki is too tired to be appreciative but he IS trying to anyway. He’s more focused on believe it or not Twice’s concerns for Giran. And even quotes his master when he thinks of going after Redestro. (One of the last lines All-Might hears before he deflates publicly for the 1st time in fact)
Hanabata riles up the crowd and gets everyone flipping their lids. And Twice makes it to Redestro. (Someone straight up made a Doofenshmirtz redubbing on these scenes. Shoutout to KaiserNeko for being AMAZING. Look it up) And Twice brings copies of the whole league RIGHT to Redestro in an instant. And seems copying the confirmation of being the original Twice might NOT be the best idea but it his certainty to work together at least is across the whole board. Priority one was to check on Giran and at least they got THAT part accomplished.
And probably one of the unsung funniest and best fights in this entire arc. Redestro vs Shigaraki’s copy. Ever seen a history lesson in REAL TIME as a slugfest goes down? Well now you have as the origin of the term quirks came about and none other than Destro’s mother was the 1st to come up with the term. Nothing fundamental changed but quelling protests a bit more. At least publicly. And Redestro questions what world would Shigaraki make if he DOES succeed to uproot the status quo what will HE create. WE have generations at our back but YOU?! (Fun fact: Redestro is anywhere between the 2nd Redestro and the 4th his title of the heir of the Destro bloodline is passed down. He’s either Reredestro, Rereredestro, or too many re’sdestro.) Sadly he doesn’t get an answer, as Shigaraki’s decay grows with every exhausted step collapsing the tower and eliminating the conversation. And now the main event of this conflict begins.
I THINK I got it all. Still character profiles coming.
I agree with you here my friend l fell şad for him too tho but yes your ritht here❤
Machia waking up and launching himself is the scariest thing from this season, maybe along with tomuras episode and twice and toga getting broken up by skeptic puppets
this is my favorite episode in the anime, ive always loved twice, im so glad everything works out for him in the end
...
18 hour gang haha. Finally remembered to watch this. Great episode.
oooooh god i just remembered what the next episode is. Fr one of my favourties but DAMN
The way he was like srry I had to explain the world to u I heard u didn’t go to school like that’s so disrespectful
Twice just being able to create two clones each doesn't seem like much... but, paraphrasing a famous fable, take a chessboard and put a grain of rice on the first square, two on the second one, four on the third one, and so on... and you'll run out of rice long before you run out of squares. What's probably limiting them is _lack of space to create the clones in,_ since all the space around most clones is already filled with clones.
Also, it's not just _Twice_ clones... as we saw in the tower, any of the clones could also make two _of anyone Twice has measured before..._ like Tomura Shigaraki, for instance.
Sad mans parade 👬👬👬👬👬👬👬👬👬👬👬👬👬👬👬👬👬
MY FAVORITE EPISODE OF THIS VOLUME!! I love Twice and I love his massive upgrade. It is just sad of what this leads to, since without this, it likely would not have happened.
This episode is the entire reason twice is my favorite mha villain
It's really neat to see villains humanized like this. The whole "I understand, but don't agree" thing.
In the end Machia launched himself 😂
Oh the irony! Skeptic tried to break Twice, but instead he ended up curing him...for the most part anyway.
I think that Re-Destro isn't Destro's son but a descendant, so there could be a couple of generations between them.
Damn I'm just realizing Naruto could have ended up like twice with a broken mind. Sasuke said "Shadow clones jutsu is a way to hide your loneliness" (different anime)

(Spoilers)
I’m glad you pointed out how triggering hearing that would be, from his perspective that’s ALREADY how the world was
I feel so bad for Twice. He's my lil' big boy that needs to be protected.
You meet, learned of, The Mother of Quirks. When her son was born and was under attack, to protect him said "It's just his quirk." He son grew up to de Destro. I don't know about Re-Destro being the direct son of Destro, I feel like there should be another generation or two because he said that he's a decendant of Destro. I don't believe that she would believe is the MLA's ideas; she would have wanted for her son to live a normal life free of discrimination.
I'm sad. I've been binging these videos for the last week or so. Now I'm almost caught up 😢
Geten the ice guy you should pay attention to him more he's plays a part
Can't wait for the origin story
Still the best react channel 🤞🏽
Nice shirt Kenny
Since the anime is never going to reveal it and they've already seen who dabi is .
Geten here is a cousin of dabi and his mom
Remember me? Also demon slayer season 5 will come out late 2025
You mean the 3 movies??
army
Please react The Promised Neverland
The VA selection os so distracting. I cant help but think of Maes Highes when ReDestro talks. The VA uses the same exact voice/no alterations
Still think twice sad man parade is overrated we seen how people like dabi
Geten
Shigarki
Could all over power it
shig yes dab no
@@gakwayasamuel5837 dabi burns them all to bits he destroys them
Sad Man's Parade snowballs very fast. I'd say spare space would fill with Twices at the speed of a running man. Characters you mentioned can potentially stop the expansion or reach the original one, but without knowing where exactly he is, fight becomes 1 human versus ∞ ants.
@@narindercatt2230 nah it’s more like the sun vs infinity ants
@@BlackHat-v4j
Sun is allreaching. Dabi isn't)
