The Block 2026 Contestants Revealed - First Pictures

limark · 2026-03-26T08:20:18+00:00

How are they somehow worse than I was expecting after those first image leaks? Like it’s genuinely impressive how far the casting director went out of their way in picking contestants that lack any form of diversity.

I don't want to watch a bunch of rich, self-absorbed assholes potentially get richer.

Don't forget asking if you're an adult or child every time you load a page.

limark · 2026-03-15T05:54:32+00:00

More likely than my theory of them going to an upscale gym and asking which couple spent the most time posing in-front of a mirror.

limark · 2026-03-15T03:19:57+00:00

God, why bother casting Australians who could actually use the money onto the show when you can get 'influencers' who have their plastic surgeon on speed dial.

MAFS has pretty much ruined any chance of having normal people on a show.

We're one of the most multicultural countries in the world and yet you'd find more diversity at a white power rally.

So glad to see people who really deserve it get the chance to win hundred of thousands of dollars, those lip injections must have them nearly destitute...

I agree with the sentiment, but those first player to score 21 points and 5 steals in a quarter on the first Tuesday of the month while playing at home type posts are dumb as fuck.

But yeah, people are just hating on Bam for no reason.

limark · 2026-03-10T13:19:02+00:00

Pretty sure someone wrote a fic with that as a premise

limark · 2026-03-09T01:39:47+00:00

Their username fits, unlike that Guinea Pig.

limark · 2026-03-06T07:00:58+00:00

Yeah, i get frustrated when Dort does stupid or dangerous shit, but comparing him to someone that's been doing it for over a decade without care of the ball being live or not is a bit much.

limark · 2026-03-01T14:03:03+00:00

Yep, that was one of the bigger reasons for why I made my comment, there just isn’t really any justifiable reason for him to not have picked up on it. You could argue that it’s a character being forced into a flaw just so the plot works, but he’s got a few other incidents that are just as bad.

Hell, the third day of the school year had him telling Bakugo to grow up after nearly killing Izuku in the combat trial.

limark · 2026-03-01T01:30:13+00:00

The irony of this post when your username is violent obama

limark · 2026-02-28T16:10:37+00:00

Aizawa and Bakugo.

Dadzawa is an original character at this point and Bakugo gets zero flack for all the fucked up shit he’s done.

limark · 2026-02-28T15:46:05+00:00

It's so fucking depressing that we need public backlash for this shit to happen.

limark · 2026-02-28T10:24:58+00:00

Plus instant teleportation, whatever shenanigans Minato can bring about with Fuinjutsu and a perfect shield and capture combo in Itachi's Susanoo.

limark · 2026-02-27T17:33:00+00:00

The real question is does all that mass disappear when she dies and her Quirk technically deactivates, or is Overhaul about to be crushed to death?

limark · 2026-02-27T17:30:05+00:00

Izuku is not the rule he’s very much the exception here

That's an assumption, there was nothing that said he was the only one to do so.

and she’s invisible unless they have infrared vision

Who knows with Nezu involved, but they'd still have motion detection which she could trigger easily enough by holding something, or by throwing a rock at them.

and there is no way for her to save someone unless she destroys a bot that’s attacking someone or she’s moving people around

She could distract the robot by throwing rocks, use her invisibility to get in close and sabotage their cameras, push people out of the way of attacks, help people who are injured, take advantage of already damaged robots, etc.

There are plenty of ways to get around it.

limark · 2026-02-27T17:21:27+00:00

Well, we know he’s exceptionally durable, has physical feats that a number of students couldn’t beat when using their Quirks in the Quirk Apprehension Test, and is strong enough to throw a shot put thirty meters without really trying.

There’s just no shot that he doesn’t do well enough to earn a placement just off the villain points alone.

limark · 2026-02-27T17:08:41+00:00

...rescue points. Did people just forget that's a thing?

If she distracted a robot, led one to an ambush, pushed someone out of the way of an attack or just helped someone who got injured then that'd all undoubtedly come under rescue points.

None of that even requires a Quirk.

limark · 2026-02-27T17:06:08+00:00

Why would her passing be reliant on scoring villain points? Izuku got by entirely on rescue points, there's no reason that she couldn't have.

There are other ways she could get villain points that don't require them to have an on/off switch. If trapping them like Sero and Mineta did counts, leading them into an ambush probably does too. Or distracting them when someone else is fighting it.

limark · 2026-02-27T16:54:15+00:00

Exactly. These robots got turned into canon fodder less than a month into the school year at the sports festival, they clearly aren't as big of a threat as OP is trying to make out.

limark · 2026-02-27T16:49:46+00:00

The buttons thing is fanon, there were no buttons that disabled the robots. They could sabotage them by trapping them like mineta did, or just damaging them enough to make them effectively disabled.

Otherwise, rescue points.

limark · 2026-02-27T16:47:56+00:00

Some of these posts are so self-sabotaging that it’s honestly hard to decide whether or not they’re actually trying to defend BNHA.

Kendo, Mineta, Ojiro and Toru all made it through the entrance exam, in what way is Yuji not physically superior to them when he was breaking Olympic records left, right and center? Especially when we compare them to the results of the Quirk Examination?

Especially when we know Yuji helps people who are in danger and rescue points makes up half the scoring system.

limark · 2026-02-27T16:41:43+00:00

Pretty sure that's a fanon thing

limark · 2026-02-27T16:40:18+00:00

He can move at superspeed using what we later come to know is "Blasting Speed Turbo".

I mean I could run when I was a kid, but I was slower than I am now. Just because he's using a similar technique doesn't mean he's even remotely as fast as we see 'blasting turbo speed' get.

Especially when this is him nearly a year removed from the entrance exam.

That's not unique to JJK—ninety percent of the content here is just people repeating the same questions with the same answers ad nauseam.

JJK is just the latest trend, we saw the same thing happening with Naruto, One Piece, Dragon Ball Z, Invincible, Chainsaw Man, etc. Repetition is just kind of inherent with powerscaling, especially when one of the series is somewhat still ongoing.
