Still frustrated there wasn't more done with this. All for One sent a noumu that knew Izuku's face into Hosu, but this is never addressed again. This could be taken as further confirmation that All for One at least highly suspected Izuku was the One for All successor (at least enough to start some half baked kidnapping attempts). Because this is how someone would do that in a way that the heroes wouldn't become suspicious. No one was going to think it was part of an elaborate plot that a mindless monster grabbed a specific kid out of a crowd.
The biggest stretch here is why All for One thought Izuku would be in Hosu in the first place. Sure All for One would have known it was UA's internship week because of Aoyama or any other connections he had to any hero agency involved in the process. And he would know that Ingenium's brother was in Class 1A. So if it was planned, it likely came down to All for One believing in people's emotions, and All for One of all people knowing how drastic a person can act when their family is involved. Since it was likely Iida would do something impulsive near Hosu, there was at least some potential Izuku could also end up in Hosu.
Maybe something will be revealed in the recent chapters concerning the Tsubasa noumu situation. Otherwise, the connection between Garaki, Tsubasa, and Izuku is just a massive waste of a potential plot point

Here’s a little scar/doc drabble I wrote in a poll-induced sleep deprived hyperfocus. It is based on some moments from Joe’s recent stream. Enjoy?
cw: suggestive
————
“Sorry Doc, I’ve only got a rare Grian to trade.” Joe comments as the pair walk towards the TCG shop after a close match in the lime arena.
“Damn it, okay. Maybe I will ask Cub, see if he knows where I can find a rare Hypno.”
“He might, Cleo may know as well.” Joe glances up from his cards in time to see another hermit entering the shop. “Howdy, Scar!”
“Well hello there, Joe!” Scar responds, half glancing in their direction as he stashes away his extra rockets.
Doc clears his throat. It’s not a very loud sound, but it’s enough. Joe can feel the energy of the room shift. Scar straightens his vest and turns fully towards them with eerie blue eyes and a too-sharp smile. “Ah, Doc I didn’t see you there.”
“Clearly.” Joe glances to the side to see Doc square his shoulders and stand to his full height. For a moment neither of them move.
“So, Scar,” Joe asks lightly in an attempt to dispell the building tension. “Were you looking to buy some booster packs?”
“I was thinking about it, but I wouldn’t mind discussing a trade,” Scar responds, keeping his eyes locked on Doc. He tilts his head slightly to the side before adding, “that is, if you have any good cards.”
In three large strides Doc crosses the shop, not stopping until he is well within Scar’s personal space. “And what is that supposed to mean?”
Scar mocks an expression of shock, having to crane his neck to maintain eye contact. “Why Doc, I simply meant that we could trade if you have any cards that suit my deck.” Scar smirks, reaching a hand up to brush some redstone dust off the front of Doc’s lab coat. “I’m sure your cards are perfectly adequate.”
Doc growls, leaning ever closer. “You would not beat me in a match.”
Scar humms noncommitally. “Time will tell, I suppose.”
Joe yawns. “Well, I think I’m going to turn in for the night. See y’all tomorrow.”
“Goodbye Joe” Scar comments, unmoving.
Joe looks down to find his rockets as he hears Doc mumble something in french. It’s funny, he thinks, that Doc speaks french like he’s kissing somebody.
After checking his elytra, Joe glances up once more at the pair across the shop.
They are locked together at the lips, a mess of clashing teeth and dueling tounges. Scar’s hands wandering under Doc’s lab coat as Doc pulls Scar against him. They already appear to be out of breath.
It’s about time, Joe thinks, as he steps out of the shop and activates his elytra. Those polls can be stressful for anyone, particularly those who weren’t aware. All that tension and they must have with no idea where it was coming from. Oh well, at least Doc wins something today.

Rocky III (1982). Rocky faces the ultimate challenge from a powerful new contender, and must turn to a former rival to help regain his throne as the undisputed fighting champion.
This is really more fun than it has any right to be, and the chemistry between Stallone and Weathers is infectious and covers for a multitude of sins. For a sports film too, it toys with compelling themes of aging and class mobility in a way that implies there's a better movie in here somewhere, but at the end of the day, it never quite achieves that degree of greatness. Still, a pretty fun movie overall. 6.5/10.

Many quietly influential musicians have had several successes to their names that gave them the silence they need to be what I keep defining. For instance, Mr. Oizo did reach the highest peaks of the charts during the late 90's, which enabled him to do what he wants, including an incredible movie career. The latter does complement what he does in his music – you keep asking yourself how serious he is. There's a sense he has a goofy smile on his face, when he makes his music. Of course, he doesn't troll you, he's gently ribbing you, but he also seems to be aware his surroundings – he has to thank Daft Punk for his visibility, they made France one of the havens of electronica in the 90's – enables him to go there.
