Yeah, it's Stain. The coolest part for me was how his ideology is teased before we even see him. There's talk about his 'philosophy' and how he only goes after certain heroes. It sets him up as a thinker, not just a brute.
When he finally appears, you already know he's dangerous in a different way. He's not chaotic like Shigaraki; he's precise and motivated by a warped sense of justice. That makes him far more terrifying and unpredictable in his own way. A great villain debut that perfectly sets the stage for the Hosu City arc.

Shigaraki's relationship with Gigantomachia is a brutal mentorship test. Machia isn't teaching him; he's breaking him down to see if he can be rebuilt stronger. It's a twisted reflection of All Might's training of Deku.
This expansion shows that growth on the villain side is also earned through pain and perseverance, just in a far more cruel and unforgiving way. It adds a layer of dark, perverted shonen progression to Shigaraki's journey, making his eventual power-ups feel earned within his own grim context.

Honestly, I was most impressed by how each new villain had a clear, dangerous philosophy. Re-Destro believes in liberation through power. Geten believes in strength as purity. Trumpet believes in fervent conversion. Skeptic believes in control through information. Curious believes in the spectacle. They're introduced as true believers, which makes them scarier. Hawks, in contrast, is a hero whose belief is being tested by deception. We don't get a new heroic ideal introduced; we get an existing ideal under fire. The volume's character introductions are about clashing ideologies given human form.

From a pure power-scaling perspective, volume 2 is a huge deal because of the Noumu. Up until that point, All Might was this untouchable god. The Noumu, with its Shock Absorption and Regeneration, is the first thing shown that can actually trade blows with him. That immediately raises the ceiling for what a threat can be. It introduces the concept of multi-Quirk beings, which becomes central to the lore. So while Shigaraki and Kurogiri are the characters, the Noumu is the concept villain. It represents a new frontier of danger that the heroes aren't prepared for. Its introduction is a quiet, world-changing event disguised as a monster-of-the-week.

The genius of this arc is that it makes you root for the 'villains' sometimes. When Bakugo has to play the role, he's so hilariously bad at it that you almost want the examinees to beat him.
It flips the script. The new villain dynamic is performative and often comedic. It doesn't have the weight of a life-or-death struggle, but it has its own unique tension.
You're watching to see if the students can outsmart each other within the rules of the game. It's a sports manga disguised as a superhero story for a few volumes, and it works really well.

You know, for all the talk about Stain, the Battle Trial is what sells the volume. Bakugo's vicious strategy and Midoriya's desperate cleverness are the immediate draw. The Stain stuff is like a postcard from a darker, nearby city. You glance at it, feel a shiver, and then go back to the intense drama in front of you.
But that postcard stays in your mind. It's there when Bakugo goes too far. It's there when All Might talks about responsibility. It's the ghost at the feast. So while the volume is 95% school saga, that 5% Stain teaser tints the entire experience with a shade of impending doom. It's a narrative seasoning that changes the flavor of everything.

Reading these comments is making me want to re-read the whole arc. The analysis here is deeper than the official wiki, lol.

For anyone who's only watched the anime, volume 6 covers episodes... I want to say 26 through 29? It's the start of the Forest Training Camp arc. The villains who show up are Muscular, Mustard, Magne, and Moonfish.
They're all part of the group sent to capture Katsuki Bakugo. Muscular's fight with Midoriya is particularly brutal and a major character moment for both Deku and the little kid, Kota.

Overhaul's design incorporates his Quirk visually—the hands, the stitching on his gloves. He's a walking reminder of his own power. Every time you see him, you're reminded he can touch and unmake you. That consistent visual threat is brilliantly executed. He doesn't need to be active to be threatening; his presence is enough. It's a level of character design that does narrative work, constantly reinforcing the danger he represents without a word of dialogue.

Moonfish's quirk, 'Blade Tooth,' is one of those brilliantly simple yet horrifying ideas. It's not energy beams or elemental control; it's his own body turned into endless, extending blades. The sheer body horror of it, the way he moves like a puppet on strings of his own teeth... it's uniquely disturbing. In a volume that introduces several quirks, his is the one that feels most like a curse or a mutation gone horribly wrong. It's less a superpower and more a monstrous condition.
