Newman’s Nook: The #1 Hero

My Hero Academia is a great series that, unlike everyone else out there, I only got into in October. A series about a world where superpowers (quirks) are widespread raises many questions, the greatest of which is “What is a hero?” To answer that, I want to talk about two heroes—All Might and Endeavor. Warning—Spoilers… Read More Newman’s Nook: The #1 Hero

TangleCast 56: Afikomen, All Might, and the Superhero

Have you seen EndGame yet? Then keep it to yourself! Matthew still hasn’t seen it. However, he does know a thing or two about the origin of superhero stories. This week he leads Team Anchester in a crash-course history lesson about the inarguably Judaic origins of the superhero, why Christians should care, and how it… Read More TangleCast 56: Afikomen, All Might, and the Superhero

All Might, Midoriya, and how to go beyond your limits

Resemblances notwithstanding, I promise you that this post is not a rehash of TWWK’s stellar reflection. There are at least four scenes in MHA when All Might or Midoriya use One for All and go beyond their full power. Of course, Plus Ultra is one of the series’ catch-phrases, so it’s natural that we’d see… Read More All Might, Midoriya, and how to go beyond your limits

All Might’s Spiritual Smash: A Challenge for the Faithful

all might and nana shimura

I know that Boku no Hero Academia is far from over—this is the story of how Midoriya becomes the greatest hero, after all, and he’s far from it at this point—but episode 49 felt like a finale, not only like the end of an arc, but the climax of an entire series. As All Might… Read More All Might’s Spiritual Smash: A Challenge for the Faithful

The Lesson Lost in One For All

As much as I love Boku no Hero Academia, there was something about the series that irked me right at the beginning, which I’d conveniently forgotten about until now. Midoriya started out as someone so desperate to have a quirk, who longed for it in a pure, childlike way, and who proved worthy of it… Read More The Lesson Lost in One For All

I Might Not Be All-Might, But I Can Be Pretty All-Right

As kids, we all heard stuff we weren’t necessarily meant to as our parents or others held “adult” conversations (or arguments) in front of us, forgetting that children hear all, see all. I don’t know why, then, I’m surprised when one of my kids mentions something from a conversation that wasn’t meant for her ears.… Read More I Might Not Be All-Might, But I Can Be Pretty All-Right
