Ehhhh to each their own I guess, I'm perfectly okay with this fight being short seeing how Wahl already had the chance to show his stuff at the start of the invasion and I didn't find him terribly interesting anyway (a cyborg that adapts to the opponent's abilities, how original), and really, after god knows how many Sternritter, I'm done with increasingly huge teams of forgettable villains that get faux-defeated 20 times, so the sooner they get sorted out, the better. I don't care if the fight is short so long as it has good, memorable moments, and this one did, I'm more than satisfied with that.

And I think getting hung up over something as small as the MBP that were barely mentioned up to now and will likely never get mentioned again is too much. I'd rather have retcon attemptedly scientific asspul over nakama power asspull. Mangaka write on the fly, it's a secret to no one, they retcon bullshit all the time. Since the whole MBP mechanics has never been truly broken down and explained to us apart from "it's stuff that's bad for you", I didn't even mind when I read it, I had to reread the page to understand what had happened, but once I did I didn't even think about it twice. The fight had a cool ending; I'll take this over most of the Tartaros fight any day tbh
