Spotlight: Morishita “Deconstructa” Masumi

What was it about Masumi that made you like her? What did you find compelling? What’s something controversial, perhaps, that you’ve wanted to share and haven’t til now?

From the moment we’re introduced to the way that the other Superpowers nearly trip over themselves to ensure Masumi doesn’t spiral out of control, I knew she’d be a force to be reckoned with but even still, with the conclusion of Arc I, I was blown away.

Etienne's plan

>!Wouldn't Etienne's plan have just failed in the end anyways? The end of the world didn't happen because of malice, it happened since Masumi's kaiju got released, something that would happen when she died anyways. The world may have ended a few decades later once she dies of old age, but it still ends as long as Masumi has the "apocalypse tied to the well being of a mortal being" curse.!<

(SPOILERS) effect on the story

>!Does the introduction of aliens kind of muddle the message for anyone else? As long as there are supers like Masumi who can end the world just by dying supers pose an inevitable existential threat to the Earth, but without supers Aliens like the Signal and the Queen just kill everyone on Earth anyways. I'm not sure how the conclusion will bring this together, considering "supers exist" and "supers don't exist" both end in the apocalypse (and also an Etienne dictatorship would still result in Masumi being born most likely, as shown by the fact Etienne didn't and thus probably can't take away Masumi's powers)!<
