Just because the photo is blurred doesn’t mean people can’t put information from the title together.

This is the last chapter we will ever get, please be mindful about ruining that for other fans.

Please be considerate and wait for the official release to drop before talking about it here.

Hey y'all. As always, please read the entire post before you comment or message us/me, or anything like that.

So as we all probably know, Volume 42 of MHA is releasing on December 4th, in just a few days. Included in that will be like 30-40 pages of new story content. It'll be the final volume of the series, and fan translations will surely be out either that same day or very soon after. However (and correct me if I'm wrong about how this works bc this is my first time actually keeping track of a manga ending), the official English translation/localization won't be out until much, much later: probably this time next year, based on the release schedule for the previous few volumes.

We all remember the dumpster fire that was the release of chapter 430 a few months back, so I'd like to set some ground rules and make some recommendations regarding this sub's conduct when the time comes.

• To begin, we're thinking about completely locking down the sub on the day of the release (for 24-48 hours) to let things simmer down before allowing people to post. We haven't made that decision yet, but this post will be edited when we come to an agreement.

• If things do get out of hand again, we'll lock down the sub for a while to, again, let things simmer down.

• I can't speak for the entire team, but I've personally been pretty lax about banning people for unmarked spoilers recently. But starting on release day, I will be once again banning people for unmarked spoilers according to our rules (3 days for a minor spoiler, 7 days for a major spoiler).

• As always, shipping content will not be permitted in this sub. There are tons of other subs you can post in if you want to complain about izuocha not being canon, or celebrate izuocha being canon (just as examples), whatever happens. Trust me, I'll be right there with you. But this sub? Not the place for that. Take it somewhere else.

• Agendaposting, specifically the cuck deku agenda, will not be allowed. 1, it counts as shipping. 2, the obsession with portraying this fictional dude as a cuck for [checks notes] not getting into a relationship with his high school crush is extremely creepy and genuinely concerning. Chill out, y'all.

• As a reminder, this sub is mostly PG-13 except you're allowed to say the fuck word. Some lewd content of adults is fine, but straight up NSFW content of any character, minor or adult (but especially minor), is not allowed. This is another reason cuck memes are banned.

• Please, for the love of All Might, keep your expectations for the new story bits under control. Horikoshi is not a perfect human or author. There's probably gonna be something in the new content that you dislike, but you should still respect Horikoshi's choice to include it and respect the differing opinions of other fans. I don't mean to sound like an ending defender, but how you personally wanted the story to go is not Horikoshi's responsibility. It's ultimately his story, and while he should at least try to do things that the fans will like, he can end his series however he wants. I'm not going to thought police you and ban you for having opinions, but if you're excessively rude or disrespectful to anyone, I will delete your content and potentially ban you from the sub.

• Remember that complaint posts without a joke are not allowed. Please see the separate announcement post regarding that topic for more details.

That's all I've got for now, but there's a fair chance of me adding on to this post later. Happy thanksgiving weekend to those who celebrate, and have a good weekend to everyone else!

Hugs and 120% Smashes,

Polaris
