The Heroes are struggling to simply stay alive against Shigiraki, seemingly no longer trying to stall but just trying to avoid death. The last chapter of My Hero Academia ended with the Big Three from UA preparing to jump in and protect Bakugo from the approaching Shigiraki....
This of course brings up a lot of societal issues that the series uses to flesh out its worldbuilding, and develop its characters. For example, characters like Shinso and Bakugo have their formative years fundamentally affected by the way their society views their quirks, and their views on heroism and themselves are changed as a result. However, not all of the series’ quirk subplots get this amount of love....
He was not being impassive about this. I had thought that when doctors delivered bad news, they used a med-school cultivated matter-of-fact delivery. My doctor’s voice broke.

The doctor diagnosed a parotid gland tumor....
“You don’t understand,” the surgeon explained. “You never had cancer.” And so I became involved in a lawsuit against the hospital and the people who wouldn’t even own up to their error. According to “Lawsuit Hell,” NEWSWEEK’s cover story on our civil-justice system last week, I guess that makes me just another freeloader looking to hit the jackpot. I’d take offense–being maimed by someone else’s negligence isn’t winning the lottery–except that I’m used to these articles....
Let’s hope so. I am still deeply concerned about the rampant partisanship in the United States today. For the most part, we seem to be electing extremists at both ends of the spectrum. These far-right and far-left politicians seem more interested in achieving their own agenda then they are in governing. This has produced a stalemate where neither side is willing to compromise and nothing gets done. How did we get here?...

The Mythic Quest writers are clearly committed to digging deeper into each of their characters.

In 2016, N.C. State missed a 33-yard field goal as time expired to set up a heartbreaking 24-17 overtime loss to Clemson. The Tigers had four turnovers in that game.

Now, No. 16 N.C. State get a third chance against No....

The Spanish icon will try on Sunday to spoil the 20th celebrations of the Greek youngster, who reached the second final of his career by beating Wimbledon finalist Kevin Anderson 6-7 (4/7), 6-4, 7-6 (9/7), saving a match point in victory.
