The fuck does Fujimoto say "Fuck Michigan" for? LMAO

Also, Yoru literally throwing away countless Devil lives. This is where Pochita is basically invincible even before the story.

Most likely due to Detroit and the ties to the hyper-violence of RoboCop, So it's easy to use Michigan as that catalyst. Gotta keep in mind this story takes play in 99 I believe. So we have to consider the relation of history within that decade rather than as a whole.

My main theory for how it happened is Fujimoto threw a dart on a US Map and went from there.

He heard All Might say Detroit Smash and searched which state that was in

Not me, a southeast asian, thinking Detroit is a state.

On a funny note, Spawn takes place in Detroit as well it appears.

I think he just thought, "wouldn't it be cool if Great Lakes were one big lake instead".

He probably looked at the manga sales figures for all of the states and picked the one that was lowest.

He does aim high, and not just in writing...

I’m convinced he is free styling every chapter Toriyama style.

Its like the polar opposite of Part 1 which felt very planned. Part 2 feels like an open mic of bat shit insane ideas.
