Hero Killer STAIN: The PERFECT Villain (My Hero Academia, MHA)

[@petersenior5432]

To add to Stain's supposed "powers that would allow him to get to the roof" his actual lack of these powers shows how he was going to use his own strength to show the world what needs to be done

[@masonv9333]

I feel like this dude watches mha with a magnify glass up to his monitor

[@BeeMusic2024]

Or rather a magnifying perspective. I do that with One Piece 😂

[@Gavriel01]

Another thing that makes him so interesting visually is that all of the other characters in the show up to that point have had designs inspired by classic DC and Marvel style heroes and villains. Sometimes kitschy, sometimes more serious, but with a lot of classic style elements. With his flowing, seemingly alive scarves and bandages, Stain evokes the legendary artwork of Todd McFarlane, which calls to mind the way Image comics shook up the comics industry in the 80’s and early 90’s with their more gritty anti-hero stories like Spawn.

[@raedien]

While you're not wrong, by far the biggest visual influence for Stain is TMNT.

[@6213111566]

I like how you made valid points yet he didn't pin your comment, he seems to only pin compliments. I find this very strange

[@withbadgrades1107]

People hate looking at present mic's no nostril nose bUT THIS BOY HAS NO NOSE AT ALL

[@luxannefelix9681]

[@briana1227]

Present mike doesn't have a nostrils??? How have I never noticed that.

Krillin got more nose than the boy

I saw this video in my notifications and simply sighed, thinking: I love this guy, but another Stain video? I've already seen so many. Then I finished the video, and saw by far, the best full analysis of Stain I've ever seen. You just keep surprising me over and over. Especially by your choice in subjects. Keep it up, man. You're amazing.

[@ronan3761]

The "Plus Ultra" clip gets me every time

[@zakariamohamed3202]

REALLY GREAT VIDEO MAN. You got a new sub, and you deserve it my friend. Stain was one of if not THE greatest villain I’ve seen in a shonen, and the short arc was the best part of season 2 imo. I look forward to your future content man. Keep up the awesome work!

[@dersterben9817]

I love how your videos show attention to detail and qualities the average fan would miss. You exhibit the smallest of things in this show, showing that you not only are truly a fan but also, you enjoy sharing with others. The commentary and editing is great, despite the monotone and small amounts, and honestly im sure all of your fans (including me) would appreciate it if you made more videos.

[@kyrudo]

I love your MHA content! Keep up the great work!

[@AIexKilin]

kyrudo BNHA idiot

[@LilGamer1511]

Alex Kilin. Shut up

[@ItzBurst]

Keep up the awesome work, I know you’ll become big one day!

[@HxH2011DRA]

AHHHHHH YEAH BOIIIIII STAIN ANALYSIS IS WHAT I NEED IN MY LIFEEEEE!

[@joshuahicks7798]

Well done man! Keep this up and you will have thousands of subs.

[@WolframiteWraith]

Um, Stain didn't die dude. He was arrested. Also, Iida didn't have the blood type most affected by Stain's quirk but Native did. So in order of effectiveness it would've been Native, Iida, then Midoriya. I think you're over analyzing by connecting the blood types to themes. It was likely set up that way so Midoriya could go to protect Iida and play an active role in the fight while still falling prey to Stain's quirk for the purpose of tension.

[@kakkeru7333]

you should rewatch the anime dude he died when a broken rib punctured his lunk or stomach lol

[@Hii-ec6nr]

:lllllll I think he didnt die. He paralyzed himself or something. His ribcage. Idk

[@ExodixBlade]

He didn't die

[@user-un8jx8yo7z]

I thought he died. But I guess having all those serious injuries doesn't matter in BNHA.

[@ExodixBlade]

Caaarl Serious injuries does matter in this anime/manga.

[@killlaqueen]

I think people just like him because he is an antihero that is the strong quite type and their is a total mystery behind how strong he really is (also he has an afro samurai vibe going for him)

[@Growhart]

you're giving me my MHA analysis fix right now, dude, and i love seeing you get better in your editing and voice work so far, keep going!!!

[@mageinabarrel802]

This is by far the best Stain analysis video I've seen. Thanks for the great vid!

[@nightdreamer2315]

I was always curious why Stain thought All Might was most worthy even as he was extremely famous and in the light. Maybe because All Might didn’t seek it out or do the hero job for the purpose of fame. I just thought it was always interesting

[@doomedclockwork7359]

it's really nice to see smart, organized content, instead of someone reading off of their rambling script. you don't waste time with other details, you get to the point. what has taken others close to 20 minutes, you do in close to 13 minutes, and unlike the one's that are 10-13 minutes, you got more covered, instead of saying your opinion and then rambling and acting like the end is the real conclusion. it was satisfactory to watch/listen to. keep doing what you're doing and you'll probably get tons of views and subs

[@redsteelish]

Man, I do have a couple of ideas for videos but I'll need to wait for next season so they are a little bit less spoiler-y. Keep it up! You are doing great work!

[@faiganmeadowcroft1300]

I know the show is that revlevant right now but have you ever thought about doing some Hunter X Hunter videos, I think your format would work really well with that show. Keep up the good work :) Ps: Great Doki Doki Literature Club refrence

[@EnkeEnkhtsogt]

i love ur voice and your analyzing skills. love u fam

[@ConductorElcrest]

Damn so little videos but all so top notch. Legitimately an underrated channel

[@parania6541]

Such an underrated channel with underrated content.

[@mykephoon5836]

i believe that once Deku is a grown adult hero that Muscular and Stain will return. same goes for Rapa for Kirashima. i think these characters are gonna be set up as their future rouges gallery due to the fact that they survived with their bodies and quirks in tact. now that Deku will be the worlds greatest only he is worthy to defeat Stain.

[@guywhocommentseverywhere1887]

Mykephoon won't stain be old

[@addie1788]

darren pokemon Deku is currently 15, and we could assume that Stain is in his 30s, so, when Deku is 25 stain could be in his 40s, which is a reasonable age for both of them and their goals.

[@jaywells5857]

babs no deku is 16

[@caseygray2328]

this was an excellent breakdown of Stain, well done

[@Elfos64]

To put it simply: Stain loved heroes, loved them so much that he resents how there's so few that really live up to the ideal. In contrast, Shiguraki hated heroes, he thought they were a bullshit concept that needed to be knocked off their pedestal so "honest hard-working crimelords" like him could just exist. Given that the word "hero" didn't originally refer to moral alignment but rather one's ability to affect great change (positive or negative), and that glorified ad modeling apparently passes for a hero internship now- Stain wasn't wrong. And to be fair, All-Might did kind of overdo it with heroing, he jumped in to deal with problems other heroes could have easily dealt with on the way to work and had overexerted himself by the time he got to work. Him being so Super-Special Awesome inadvertently drove Endeavor to brutal extremes in a futile attempt to catch up with/surpass him. Shiguraki isn't entirely without a point either, All-Might did kind of need to cool it.

[@noahvalenzuela9161]

Absolutely amazing work putting your thoughts into words, I agreed with literally every point that you made but didn't even realize I believed half of them until you blatantly pointed it out to me. Seriously great video and keep up the work!

[@jakobvedin]

High quallity analysis! Pls keep em coming for season 3!

[@yungtodoroki1422]

NOBODY STOPS ME BUT MYSELF, SAVAGE AS FUCK HOW HE WENT OUT

[@shizopaws]

Season 2 is my favorite season so far it just has so much story

[@xxdeadshotxx7063]

So have you seen season 4 and wait until season 5

[@MrRonald327]

You got to love a wildcard!

[@Boxygirl96]

7:52 no, stain was trying to kill todoroki too, just to a far lesser extent than Iida at the time. Deku and Deku alone was the only person who won his approval in that alleyway that day. It’s the reason Deku got away with scratches and shoto and tenya both got knives in the arms

[@ananocubinidze]

why i love stain. number 1:he looks very cool. number 2:he isnt a villian or a hero. number 3:he making his self look bad just because hes helping the ppl to get real heroes and not fake ones.number 4:HIS QUIRK IS AMAZING and also muscle strength is like WOW. number 5:he inspired other people to get fake heroes out of the hero section to bring peace to the world.(ik no one will like this or read this cuse WHO THE DAM CARES WHY I LIKE STAIN but still :3)

[@washthesaucegod4480]

I love your vids dude your analogies are epic

[@violetdelilah3705]

Cool video! Speaking of villains, I think Dabi would make for a good video. Like some ideas about is past.

[@waynebehrens64]

Thanks for making a PLUS ULTRA!, video of my favorite "recent" anime villain.✌

[@ThatBoiDinky]

the jazz at 9:27 gave me a legit spook

[@devinmaxwell7749]

Bro. This was awesome

[@jaddusthesecond4326]

What an amazing character

[@nicolebeardsley2215]

He looked like a ninja turtle to me when I first saw him in the manga XD But i agree, this villain is AMAZING

[@RainyLynx]

I think the best villain parts of mha is he part where the league villains attack, the part where the league villains attack, and the part where the league villains attack.

[@wyrentorres1316]

Another thing, think about the other people in class 1-A! Good thing Iida and Midoriya came in contact with stain and not Iida and Uraraka or Sero and Mineta, reason being Stain would kill a good chunk of class 1-A just think about it!

[@Crawzitow]

Love your videos! Just disagree witha minor thing: dont think taht in the fight todoroki is still coming to terms... the fight show how deeply deku changed him specially since the first quirk he uses to saves deku are his flames! it show how much he grew in light of his fight with deku, accepting himself and using it all to save them, not even as a last resort! and even counting with his dad to send reinforcements there! That fight was soooooo dense of meaning for everyone there! I think you just wanted to move on to the next topic about stain and it wasnt necessary to delve into todoroki in this video. GJ bro! keep it up!

[@nightdreamer2315]

I really like the soap metaphor

[@thaimolpiyas]

wow i really like your videos! instant sub

[@MrRonald327]

Nice comparison with the soap.

[@perrydunetz882]

Always saw iida as a student of todoroki whose a student of midoriya since todoroki was the one who scolded him and told him to "stand up and be ingenium"

[@fusionsigh]

I love you stuff Keep it coming

he really is the most loved villain

[@jacobstolberg3901]

Just watching this now, but amazing video dude! I don't know if you are a big manga reader or not, but in the MHA spin-off vigilantes, there's a somewhat origin story to stain. I'm not sure the chapter number, but if you love stain that much be sure to check it out!

[@SaintGuillotine]

You called stain a hero BUTT his tongue got herpees

[@thebasketcase1939]

I found a video that basically just says every word why I think about Stain or Chizome Akaguro

[@KingOpenReview]

6:27 I don't know why this made me laugh. "Stain = Stain."

[@HxH2011DRA]

The most interesting thing about stain to me is you can't say "he had the right motives but the wrong actions" mindlessly unless you wanna come off as an idiot. His point and methods are intrinsically linked, as if he didn't become a STAIN and prove that fame us worthless without morals not only would he have never been heard but the lesson wouldn't have been struke into the heroes and audiences very being through example. This is why Stain did nothing wrong, if you care about the greater good.

[@seyamthe_one_and_only4604]

The thing I noticed first was that stain had no nose

[@nadrewod999]

"after Stain's death" I thought that he was still alive? Sure, he's guaranteed to be locked up in some supervillain prison for his past murders, but the original arc ended with "Stain passes out on his feet when one of his broken ribs punctures one of his lungs". NOT "dies", but "knocked unconscious" Heroes are right next to him, emergency personnel (like medics in ambulances) are already alerted to the attack and are on their way or already on-site, and Stain wasn't putting up any more resistance as soon as he lost consciousness. In that respect, Stain is just as alive as "Gentle" in the manga: physically alive in-universe, but heavily injured and locked away behind bars by authorities, effectively removing him from any future arcs without a prison break arc.

[@aidanodell157]

Stain somewhat betrayed his ideals by going after Native, but he redeems his ideals in saving Midoriya

[@marlenevale1700]

Stain kinda reminds me of a TMNT character...

[@MysticMylesZ]

🤔 the the visuals in the video remind me of KZbin back in 2014 and stuff, interesting.

[@kanechandler8148]

Wish he woulda stayed around longer sucks to see he didn't do anything after that ):

[@honeyybun3134]

He leaves a stain in my life (I know I’m bad I walk away now....)

[@steppecist2928]

Its sad, stain would hate those who now follow him

great analogy!

[@SilentAsugi]

i got to "Stain is that Stain" part, i got up and washed

[@guy_does_nothing_productive]

Because he's a villain and he doesn't have a nose (like most villains)

[@outspoken_rizz]

where are you man, youre the best bnha youtuber ;-;

[@kingforaday42]

Stain wasent Chaos, he was Anti Chaos. He was grey to force balence, not grey due to eroded convictions.

[@zestfulmaple6113]

This is great but at 8:36 I think you meant one for all smashes

[@intuitivelymagician2076]

I hope he comes back

[@icyphoenix2401]

In season 3 there is a character who follows stain's ideals

[@mikayelalikhanyan1587]

i found you again good

[@thecat2073]

I’d really like stain and to turn over a new leaf and train deku to be able to control his quirk

[@wesleyneumann8640]

This video was great

[@luigigaminglp]

I want Stain to come back "helping" the heroes to destroy the Leauge of Villans. HE DESERVES IT. Like All Might is about to get killed, he breaks Free and saves All Might. Shit like that. Sure, All Might will probably few Episodes later die...

[@sebastianaristizabal3871]

Stain is and will always be for me the villain that I hate the most in the BNHA anime (even above Touya "PLEASE LOOK AT ME DADDY" Todoroki). The guy is like Incredibles Syndrome, you see that the heroes are not completely perfect and they are people with defects and you go like "AHHHH WE HAVE TO KILL THEM". The guy didn't even last half a semester at UA and his best idea is that instead of inspiring more people by being vigilant or something, what he does is mutilate and murder the heroes who don't meet HIS standards, not fake ones, just the ones who He considers fake. You could be a good person, you could do your fucking job well, but since you get paid and have some flaw and it's enough for Stain to send you to the morgue, what kind of CHILDLISH vision is that? How NARCISSISTIC do you have to be to believe that YOUR vision of a hero is the only and true one and that that gives you enough reason to do those bloodthirsty acts? Imagine being someone who does his job and an assassin comes to tell you how to do it, anyone would be shocked by the complete ridiculousness of Stain... because Stain does not tolerate human defects in heroes, for him, heroes should not have human flaws despite being human. That is why Spinner is pitiful, he is so pathetic that he took refuge in the stupidest ideology I have ever heard in my life, because Stain's ideology, from beginning to end, is nonsense that brings much more harm than good. Crazy, when his dream came true that only the "true" heroes would remain and the false ones would resign, everything went to shit! They put it in your fucking face that their ideology only made everything an anarchy where the villains screw everything up! What more is needed for them to see that Stain's ideology is that of a screaming fanatic who murders because the heroes are not how he wants them to be?

[@lucixanax]

Japanese culture has a bloodtype association with personality traits, like selfshness and leadership abilitys... Giving a powerfull meaning to the weaknesses of his quirk

[@twicejaeger6997]

Just read the 3th season part of The manga, it will be so AWESOME :D

[@blacksunbrohan7608]

Stain may be the Soul and idea of authenticity. Would he spare a villian if the villians goals were true? If he only kills fake, he seeks to rid the world of lies. Would he ultimately take his own life should his goal be realised? Would stain still kill or feel it completely unnecessary? 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔 No one seems to get it.
