It took me a hot minute to remember what was going on as it's been a while since I read vol. 9, but man, did things go down

TV Tropes defines the word Expy as "short for 'exported character.' A character from one series who is unambiguously and deliberately based on a character in another, older series. A few minor traits, such as age or hair color, may change, but there's no doubt that they are almost one and the same."
Instead of reviews, I'll just keep a running tally of Expies per volume. Enjoy!
- fat! Robin (I wanna say it looks a little more like the Tim Drake version of the Robin suit, but could also be Young Justice toon's Dick Grayson Robin suit, which is fitting since Rock essentially takes out that Robin to be a knockoff Nightwing)
sidenote about the plot: one of my most despised tropes of superhero comics is good-girl-hero-goes-bad-gets-sexy-more-mature-black-outfit. This is no exception; however, thematically it's greatness since the Crawler finally has to fight somebody he has personal ties with, even moreso since possible romance. Also, oh HELL NAW they pulled a La La Land on us & did a "what if...we were happy together?" NOT COOL!
...
Despite all this suffering, I still rank it pretty darn good. Cuz it was!

This was such a great Volume, The devastation right at the start, some training and then a big battle with so many things going on! I really need to read the next volume!!

It took me about ten volumes, and I wouldn't have lasted that long if it weren't for the Aizawa backstory I wanted to read, but I'm finally starting to appreciate this series. Now that various threads are coming together, it seems much more interesting to me than it did at the start.

Honestly, I can't be the first one to point out that Soga Kugisaki definitely looks like a mix between Bakugou and Kirishima. Yap, I can't be the only one.
Endeavor, dear old Endeavor, you are cool, but also... not. You can clearly see ow work up he is and how hard he tries. The poor guy.
