When I tell you this scene grinds my gears...

Hi @anartisicandautisticstararcher 👋

Absolutely I understand the sentiment completely especially because we get so little from yamada and in the end his arc really never gets resolved!!!!

From the beginning and going as far as back as the vigilante manga ever since oboro's death, you see yamada bury his true feelings and constantly hide under his persona of the present mic.

There's quite an obvious symbolism with present mic always being calm and collected whenever he has his glasses on and yamada lashing out without his glasses or with his glasses slipping of his face, without his hero persona and so this scene that grinds your and my gears is shown to be the first scene where yamada and present mic's personalities merge with present mic outwardly and directly expressing grief and anger towards midnight's death.

If we did get a scene where aizawa and yamada got to talk here it would of done wonders for BOTH of their characters and would of given us some justice for midnight whoms death doesn't seem to be properly acknowledged past this point as even in the finale hori shows us the pair visiting oboro's grave and not hers.

For aizawa, this scene would have shown him actually giving back to his friends, which is something that many aizawa critics point out that he doesn't do!

For present mic, this would have kickstarted and started to resolve his own arc. This scene, being the stimulus to present mic, acknowledging his own trauma and grief caused by the situation and having him finally discover his true self being a mix of both yamada and present mic.

Yes, yamada is violent and angry at the world. Yes, he is grieving and never got the chance to properly do so. However, yamada also loves people interacting with others , which brings him joy. Interactions with oboro are a core part of his high-school days. He also loves the radio and music but there's an intersting interpration here of him loving these two things to hide and cover his true self from the world as we see that he does this with the yamada and present mic persona's. However, you can have him develop and reach a point where radio and music become an accurate part of representing and expressing himself instead of using it to hide from the world.

(Yes, there are a lot of interesting contrasts he has with jirou here!!)

And for midnight, this scene could have expanded upon her own life and would have shown us people outside of 1A students grieving her.

In the end, I heavily understand why this scene grinds your gears because it does for me to and it seemed like there was so much wasted potential for this trio as a whole especially present mic who is my favourite out of the rooftop squad.

YESSSSSS UGH. I mean aizawa DOES care for his friends but he doesn’t show it. And it’s so annoying, it’s definitely my least fav part of aizawa’s character

I don't think a lot of Aizawa stans realize or care about how all-take-and-no-give his relationships with Mic and Midnight are.

I read somewhere that Mic and Oboro were friends longer than either of them had known Aizawa, and Aizawa's over here acting like only he lost him. Mic canonically put his own grief on the back burner to be there for Aizawa, and how is he thanked? By constantly being told to shut up and being belittled.

Midnight (maybe?) gave Aizawa the teaching position at UA to help with his grief. Now, she shouldn't have done that, especially since Aizawa had made it clear that he didn't want to teach, but he could have put his foot down and not taken the position! Instead, he makes an ass of himself to everyone around him - his students in particular. In a setting where common sense exists, this would give Midnight a bad look, but you know Aizawa doesn't care about that. He doesn't even seem to care that Midnight DIED, though that's mostly due to her death being purely for shock value 🙄.

Again, in a setting where common sense exists, Mic and Midnight would have called him out on his bullshit a long time ago and probably would have asked themselves, "why are we still friends with this guy?" It's especially upsetting, since he's compared to Kakashi so much. Kakashi has plenty of his own issues, but he's way more of a genuine friend to Guy than Aizawa supposedly is to Mic and Midnight.

Hi @nutzgunray-lvt 👋

Iam not sure if it is canon that present mic and oboro have been friends for a longer time but if it is thats not a good look on aizawa.

From the little we see of the rooftop squads friendship a lot of it does consist of present mic and midnight giving to aizawa than aizawa giving to either of the two.

For example, present mic was there for Eraserhead after the first war arc and present mic was also there for eraser after the usj arc. Midnight did recommend and nudge aizawa into becoming a teacher at UA and in the vigilantes manga it was thanks to her that oboro, mic and aizawa got an internship at a hero agency.

However, this begs the question what does aizawa do for his friends?

Nothing. (Or well canon doesn't show us that he does anything. Do correct me if Iam wrong of course)

Now sure you can definitely point fingers at horikoshi and say that he simply didn't actively include present mic and midnight in his story and that they were mainly there to prop up or almost be tools for aizawa and his development and to that I do agree but it doesn't change the fact that this is the dynamic that canon seems to establish between these characters.

I suppose you're talking about this scene when aizawa interrupts present mic telling him that midnight died and also present mic expressing his grief.

Now I won't deny that this is incredibly rude on aizawas part and that if aizawa were to listen and offer support it would at least show that he does give back to his friends but I suppose horikoshi thought it would be more important to give us "dadzawa". Personally, I do believe that there could of been a balance that we could of indeed received present mic expressing his feelings and aizawa offering support while having them talk and debrief about the entire situation yet we didn't get that.

I have seen the rebuttal that aizawa only did this because he didn't want to hear that midnight died and that he was also burying his emotions but I do suppose that's up to interpretation. My main problem is that midnight's death doesn't get brought up again after this moment between this duo/trio (if they count kurogiri).

In the end even after kurogiri dies due to bakugo it all feels empty and it's not properly talked about between mic and eraser who witnessed this moment.

I think that the kurogiri/oboro reveal really could of shown us more of all the characters sides. It could of shown us then caring and supporting eachother and also seeking comfort in eachother. There were many moments where we could of seen aizawa comfort or give to his friends but we don't and I really don't think that's supposed to be intentional writing from horikoshi.

Awwww☹️‼️

Erasermic thoughts

(Kinda)

Although Oboro is a very beloved and important character for Aizawa and Hizashi's story, I find myself having a soft spot for when the fandom hadn't been introduced to Oboro and the fics featured Tensei as Erasermic's best friend. He had so much contribution and was a character so well written by the fans that he fit perfectly into the anime's narrative.

Following this line of thought, it makes me think that Aizawa would keep an eye on Iida simply because of the contact he has with his brother, and he would constantly see tensei in the boy. But not only that, Iida would probably have known Aizawa since before, at least he would have seen him once while growing up.

And let's consider that Oboro did affect everyone and Tensei was in the equation to suffer along with it. I think he and Kayama would be the ones who would be the most resolved with the situation (still carrying the weight of the pain of losing their friend) but they would be able to fix their lives.

So they wouldn't distance themselves from the group like aizawa did, (and here I'm referring to the fact that aizawa probably kept distance even from mic for a while), and it would be common even in the rush of life, Mic and midnight to meet at the Iida's house to talk, and consequently see little Iida grow up.

Tensei would treat them as "uncles" and they would be very close to the point that Iida would see Mic as "godfather" rather than just as a friend of his brother.

Mic would be so present in Tensei's life that I think Iida would seek comfort in him after what happened to his brother in the Stain situation, they would have this freedom of speech because Mic practically raised that child indirectly.

What I mean is that Iida has admired Mic and Aizawa since before UA, and secretly he is Hizashi's protégé. (Mic disguises this better than his favoritism towards Uraraka).

I absolutely love how people bring tensei into their fics, he's a great shoulder to cry on, he got personality and humor and he helps with the narratives but you can tell he's still having a life in the fics

Love this‼️

One thing I noticed about MHA is that no one talks about what Mic must be going through.

Including him.

Repressing those feelings can’t be healthy…

[mimez-meme]

SO FUCKING REAL. Look no disrespect to people who headcanon this, it’s understandable. But he canonically has super good hearing! It’s just taking away one of his ‘powers’ and it’s super annoying☹️

What is one or more things everyone seems to get wrong about present mic?/what mischaracterisation of present mic pisses you off the most?

“You do everything for him..” “..but does he do anything for u?

YESSS

It’s a running joke on how Mic always “bullies” emos. Like, in the scene where he and aizawa go to see ‘Kurogiri’ in prison, he said ‘who would want to take care of a gloomy little punk’ [about shigaraki] and then stopped himself as if he had a thought. Yeah, Aizawa was a ‘gloomy little punk’ Shirakumo made friends with in HS and looked after.

Perhaps Mic is frustrated with the fact that Aizawa was always there, brooding, while he and Shirakumo were rays of sunshine. Maybe he was insecure that Shirakumo may have liked Aizawa more. Idk I feel there’s probably some feelings there that haven’t been discussed. Mic often hides his ‘Emo’ (lol) behind his sunshine, Loud-mouth personality.

I agree COMPLETELY and I’m so glad more people are noticing

Unpopular opinion, but out of aizawa and present mic, aizawa is way more emotionally healthy. He actually feels his emotions, sometimes even deals with them in non destructive ways. Present Mic hasn’t allowed himself to feel any non-positive emotion in the last fifteen years. Processing grief? What’s that? Talking about issues? Don’t have any. Feeling feelings? Why feel them, when you can bury them deep inside you and ignore them forever.

[mimez-meme]

as a MASSIVE fan of erasermic I will admit some of the erasermic shippers are UNBEARABLE and most of the shippers just make them into whatever they like and ignore canon. Make them into the normal classic cute bl couples, like even I know erasermic wouldn’t be as healthy as people make them out to be. Their relationship would be complicated, and even tho it hurts me to say this, I don’t think aizawa is interested in relationships. And idk if Yamada would want a relationship. Their relationship would lack communication and basic affection in times. They’re both busy. And they both have shit coping mechanisms. They wouldn’t exactly be the best pair, good pairing in ways but bad pairing in some aswell, maybe even many. People need to start separating fanon and canon or just pay attention to canon.

The one who’s most misunderstood in erasermic is ofc hizashi but even aizawa gets mischaracterised. They aren’t ‘omega’ and ‘alpha’ Yamada isn’t just there for aizawa to use, aizawa isn’t some softy boy. It really annoys me. if you claim to be an erasermic shipper have some basic understanding of both characters and understand the downsides of the ship!

Guys I’m so confused is chapter 431 canon or not? People are saying you can decide if you wanna believe it since it’s made by horikoshi’s team, or that it is canon and horikoshi made it. LIKE WHAT ONE?!

[mimez-meme]

Guys never mind idk again. LMAOOO

GUYSSS CHAPTER 431 WAS AN OPTIONAL CHAPTER SO WE CHOSE IF WE WANNA BELIEVE IT OR NOT… MEANINGGG HIZASHIS DESIGN IS TECHNICALLY NOT CANON‼️
