Another Miruko Appreciation fic from me because I think she is the best and I stand by that.

Also, while this isn't a Hawks hate fic (I do like Hawks), I personally don't recommend it for Hawks fans.

I'm just saying we all should marvel at this all year.

[epickiya722]

Teen Rumi will forever be adorable to me! 😭💜

Also, amuses me she had the nicknames "Usako" (from what I read it means "rabbit child" and some nickname Mamoru gave Usagi) and "Tiger Bunny".

[epickiya722]

She's beauty, she's grace, she'll kick you in your damn face!! 💜🐇

She's an icon, she's a legend, and she is the moment!

[epickiya722]

I am happy to see my faves in this chapter, even got a shot of them next to each other, they're my "big sis, lil' bro" duo, I adore them so much.

[epickiya722]

Only her, just her, she's everything! 💜🐇

Love that March is Women's Month and Miruko's birth month.

"You manage to take on multiple Nomus by yourself?"

Oh, yes, shocker because she just uses her legs, strength, and speed and you struggled with just one with firepower. Ain't that something?

The more I think about it you know what actually really pisses me off about Miruko losing her leg?

It's the same leg she uses to break that capsule Shigaraki was in.

That's not just it for me.

The fact that she done her job and more and X-Less SAT THERE WITH SHIGARAKI'S UNCONSCIOUS BODY INSTEAD OF PICKING HIM UP AND FOLLOWING PRESENT MIC OUT!!

IF HE HAD PICKED UP HIS BODY AND CARRIED HIM OUT A LOT OF WHAT HAPPENED COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED!!

MIRUKO BROKE THAT THING WITH A FUCKING KICK AND LATER LOST THAT LEG BUT THAT DAMN IDIOT DIDN'T THINK TO CARRY SHIGARAKI OUT BECAUSE????!!!!

WHY DID HE SIT THERE?! HUH?!

He could have done anything but just sat there!!!

[epickiya722]

WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?! HOW CAN I CHOOSE?! YOU'VE PUT ME IN A VERY DIFFICULT SITUATION!!

[epickiya722]

You know that trope when characters get hit with a truth serum or of the like and it leads to them spilling their deepest secrets or confessing to their crush, and no matter what it is, that character is embarrassed?

Okay, with Miruko? Yeah, she wouldn't give a damn.

Her getting hit with a truth quirk would be like her normally.

Her admitting she does indeed walks around her house in bunny slippers?

"Dude, it's funny. Also why the hell would I be embarrassed by comfort?"

Villain tries to get her to confess about who she finds attractive?

"Have you seen Burnin? She is hot! I was gonna ask her out anyways, all you did was speed it up. Thanks for that! BURNIN, IF YOU HEAR THIS, I'M ASKING YOU OUT!!"

Her past?

"Oh my gosh, I was such a troublemaker in my middle school days! How terrible of me! Ha! Oh, please, I wanted to kick ass then and I'm kicking ass now. I'm trying to see why I would cry over this. Nice try though!"

Like nothing will faze this woman. She would be a nightmare for anybody. She knows it and will warn everyone.

"I got hit with a truth quirk, so fair warning, don't ask me anything."

[epickiya722]

SHE IS SO GORGEOUS!! 💜🐇

🐇"WEAK!"🌙

Today, tonight, whatever time of day it is for you, I want to talk about this moment right here.

I have thoughts about this and I know I touched on this topic before but after updating one of my Miruko fics, I thought about this scene some more and realized something.

Here's the thing with Miruko that I think more people should actually stop overlooking.

If you read BNHA Vigilantes (I recommend it and SPOILERS AHEAD IF YOU HAVEN'T), then you would know a bit of Miruko's history.

For those who don't, let me give you a recap of it.

During Miruko's middle school days, she was quite a rowdy one. She would often crash fight clubs and get in trouble for it. Eventually, this lead to her being expelled from her school and taken into custody. Between that time and her high school years, her whereabouts were unknown and I have a theory on that in another post here.

Now this bit of her history is why I think she says "I heard you formed a team. Weaklings."

I don't think she was being "mean" (if anything, I have a feeling that the Lurkers were even formed because of popularity reasons).

I think there's something deeper.

And that is if we dive deeper into her past, the answer is obvious.

Her quirk.

Does it not occur to anyone that Miruko may have been bullied by other people because she has a Rabbit quirk?

Think about it.

What's the first thing you think of when you look at a rabbit? Cute, right? And often how are cute things perceived? As defenseless!

Imagine growing up and people constantly telling you how cute you are, how helpless you look because your quirk gives you rabbit ears and a tail.

Rumi probably got sick of it. She probably started acting out to prove that she isn't some helpless kid (like Izuku). She doesn't have sidekicks, an agency and doesn't work with other Heroes like that because she grew up with the idea she had to carry her own weight and do things on her own so people would stop underestimating her.

Check out her interaction with Rappa.

She may have had to deal with people like him!

Also, not just because of her quirk but also the fact she's female.

Note that there is a lot of male heroes in the industry and the highest ranked female heroes currently are Miruko at #6, Ryukyu at #10 and Mt. Lady at #23. Yet, each of them had to deal with more crap than some of the other heroes. Not just even physical injuries but I bet they have heard some sexist things in their lifetime. Mt. Lady is a starting hero, but so was Kamui Woods and she did more than him during the Kamino incident.

Personally, Miruko is a better hero than the ones ranked above her (both in skill and morals). I'm sticking by that and my mind will not be changed. No, I don't care for a debate about it. You have your opinion and I have mine.

Now, like other kids, I'm sure she idolized admired Heroes, possibly All Might, and wanted to be one. But as it happened to Izuku, she was put down for it because even though she has a quirk, people probably saw it as a "weak" one and that she's a girl.

"Rabbits always running away because they're always scared."

Her motto probably became something like "I'm a rabbit that runs towards the danger, not from it. I am the danger."

Thus lead to her doing what she did in her school days and thinking teamwork is weak. She didn't want people to think she has to rely on others' strengths and to protect herself. She could do that herself.

Think about how she interacts with other Heroes and teamwork. She is cooperative and she doesn't complain ever about working with them. She didn't think twice about helping Endeavor and Hawks out and she didn't protest during the Hospital Raid (or after later in the manga).

And remember when she insists on still fighting and Endeavor told her she done enough?

She probably felt that she still had to keep going, that she had to prove "I'm not helpless, let me still fight" (again, there's that Midoriya).

While it's on my mind, since I touched on Vigilantes.

I also think it's crazy that out of everyone in her past that the one person who did think her quirk was useful was the most evil character in this story and that's All For One.

During chapters 88 - 89 in Vigilantes, AFO is watching the underground fight so he can choose what quirks to steal. However, he (and Kurogiri) was about to call it a lost cause until Rumi showed up and started kicking everyone's asses and changed his mind and attempted to steal her quirk.

That is mad wild to me that she was still training as a Hero, so again another moment of how badass she really is, just a kid and AFO sees this girl with Rabbit ears and a tail and think "I can steal that". Like you got to be one hell of a fighter for AFO to look at you and want to steal your quirk. Rumi took a "weak quirk" and strengthen it and AFO recognized that.
