#but if we're talking garou instead??? hooo now that's far more interesting

[the-nysh]

on Bang's long quest to find new disciples to teach his techniques to. here is an idea I found for 2 possible candidates to become bangs disciples Swim, the bottom ranked C-class hero. With her determination to become part of the Blizzard Group, she could try improving by learning unarmed martial arts skills. Also, she probably would find Bang's Fist of Flowing Water, Crushed Rock technique awesome and fitting with her water themed hero suit. Amai Mask, after being forced on the run. The monster would stay at Bang's dojo due to its isolated location and the need control his emotions.

and a good number of people made posts paralleling garou and amai mask garou being a human in the mask of a monster amai mask being a monster in the guise of a hero and how garou likely angered amai mask with his wanting to be amonster going against what he stands for etc

Ah - I had forgotten her name, she was an ova-only character so I don't know if we'll ever see her again, but considering how I've felt the defensive water stream would be a good tech for more women to learn (maybe even Suiko too) it could be an interesting idea!

But Sweet Mask?? (You mean people like me who've posted their parallels like this?) If we're talking about his wc whereabouts, at that point....to be honest, I think he would be beyond Bang's expertise to help. :O (esp wc Bang...) Becoming one of Bang's disciples doesn't feel like it would help control/mitigate his monster impulses or guide him back towards becoming 'human' at all.....instead, that feels like something more up Garou's alley (having both the closest experience in recovery and understanding this type of thing), as a task in teaching he would be most qualified for over Bang. (With more potential to succeed where Bang emotionally failed him, esp when we're dealing with someone like SM actively struggling to balance their monster/human sides, he would honestly need a lot more than Bang can offer.) But again, only if they're to ever meet/interact again in the wc' future. :'D The more baggage Sweet Mask would have towards Garou, especially after his reveal - in turn making Garou have some enlightening moments towards him too, would only make their interactions that more interesting to me.
