Small comments (BNHA manga 429 spoilers)

Horikoshi is getting one thing right at least, society will now not stand by and watch someone suffer, but instead... we keep the top heroes but add a separate category that does represent heroism?

It's good that now they measure actions and not power, but I am 99% convinced that Horikoshi left that old top of heroes so that Bakugo would be number 1 in that top, I hope that in the next chapter that top does not exist and that the new top does exist, but without Bakugo (although I know that it is impossible for Horikoshi not to stop giving awards to Bakugo just because)

The legacy of the villains restructured society in one way or another, but the fandom simply does not want to see it that way because everyone expected Tomura and Toga to live, but in case it had happened, I remind you:

-Tomura was not going to stop destroying, because that is the promise he made to the league (another thing that Horikoshi added at the last second, because Tomura simply wanted to DESTROY EVERYTHING)

-Toga would have been imprisoned, no matter how much they had avoided the death penalty, she would not be rehabilitated, no matter how much she redeemed a little of her actions, she would never have freedom. She chose to die because it was the only option she considered appropriate (and they literally say that she died as she lived, as she wanted).

What is criminal is that Horikoshi simply makes Deku accept that he is a murderer and makes Uraraka feel sad about being stabbed.

Deku does not have proper introspection, he is losing his power and could not prevent AFO from taking control of Tomura who preferred to destroy himself from within rather than let AFO continue...

and Uraraka wanted to save Toga with the difference that she did not want to be saved if it meant stopping and accepting the consequences of her actions.

Toga and Tomura needed help?

BUT OF COURSE, what happens is that the manga literally shows us that everyone has reached the point of no return.

Dabi almost killed his entire family, Tomura wanted to destroy the world even after discovering the truth, Toga wanted to live by her own rules and WANTED TO KEEP KILLING, the only one left after the first war who could stop everything was Spinner and he almost a Nomu thanks to AFO.

What should bother the fandom is how Aizawa is a bad teacher for 90% of the manga and doesn't even find a moment to properly apologize to his students, OR THE OWN EXISTENCE OF BAKUGO KATSUKI

OR THAT AOYAMA HAS TO START FROM SCRATCH AND NOT SHINSO THAT HE LITERALLY DID NOT TAKE THE NECESSARY FIRST YEAR TESTS TO GET TO SECOND YEAR.

BNHA Guys Reacting to Your Kids Cartoons and Movies

Kids shows and movies say some pretty out of pocket things that you usually won’t catch or find funny unless you’re an adult

Characters Included: Izuku and Todoroki

Part 1 Part 2

Izuku

You thankfully were able to get a day off of work after yesterdays battle. You had to chase after a villain who robbed a pharmacy for god only knows what! You were able to take the group down with the help of some of your other coworkers.

To put it simply, you were exhausted after that situation from overuse of your quirk. So of course your agency saw that it was best if you took the day off. Does that mean you relaxed? Of course not! There were things to be done around the house and errands to run. It was better to do it today then waste your weekend with doing household chores.

After a long day you picked your two kids up from school and made your way home. “Okay mommy worked really hard to clean the house today so let’s try to keep it clean!” You tell your kids as you pull into the driveway of the rather large house.

Being married to the number one hero had its perks but having that big house meant it took quite a bit of an effort to clean it.

“Yes mama” they smiled in the back seat not taking their eyes up from their comic book that the eldest son had gotten just last week. You smiled and shook your head, they loved all things superhero’s and it was adorable when they got along like this.

Once the kids got settled in the TV room to watch a movie and do their homework you began to get to work on dinner. Your husband would be home soon and he probably no doubt had a long day. So you figured a nice home cooked meal would be a nice ending to his day.

As you stirred the noodles to make some spaghetti you heard the front door open and close. “Hey honey” you heard your husband come into the kitchen. He hugged you from behind and you smiled “Hello my love” you responded “How was work?” You inquired “Ughhh so tiring” he hid his face in the crook of your neck

“The kids are watching a movie in the tv room, you know they always love to see you” you remind him and he nods “Of course, I love my munchkins” he smiles as he kisses your cheek and makes his way to the next room

Izuku had planned to say hi to the kids and then go shower before dinner but somehow his daughter convinced him to stay and watch the movie with them. They were watching the princess and the frog which is a movie he couldn’t say he was familiar with. Not that he was uncultured in the movie world he just never got around to watching it until now.

As you made your way to the next room to let them know dinner was on the table you couldn’t help but smile at the sight before you. Both of your children were nuzzled up to their father as they watched the princess and the frog.

You loved this movie so it most definitely caught your attention “exactly which is why a woman of your background would’ve had her hands full trying to run a big business like that” they spoke to Tiana and you couldn’t help but scoff at that scene.

“That’s crazy how they treated her” your husband spoke “Let this be a lesson, we never ever treat anybody that way” he informs his children and they nod in understanding

Todoroki

You and Shoto had to leave the twins with a babysitter tonight as it was the annual hero’s gala. It was a very exclusive event that was by invite only for all the great heroes and their spouses. It was a great night and you were able to catch up with all of your old friends from high school.

The night was successful as Shoto had won two awards and you were incredibly proud of him for it. You were sure to remind him that he would get an extra special reward from you later tonight and the blush that crept up in his face was unmatched.

As the two of you pulled into the driveway you hoped the twins hadn’t given the babysitter a hard time with bedtime. You were crossing your fingers that they were sleeping soundly in bed. Shoto parked in the driveway and told you to stay in the car as he turned it off, got out, and walked to your door and held his hand out for you to take it.

As you stepped onto the cement driveway you slightly hissed in pain. Truthfully you hated heels but it was a formal event so you felt as if you had to just suck it up for the night. “Your feet hurt?” He asks you and you nod “Yes, I hate heels” you sigh and he nods in understanding “Then I guess I’ll have to carry you” he chuckles and proceeds to carry you bridal style up the driveway.

“Let me just say, you look absolutely stunning tonight” he smiles down at you “Have I told you that yet?” He questions himself and you giggle “Yes Sho! Once before we left and at least five times while we were there” you reassured him. “Well what’s one more time” he laughs

“That dress” he sighs as he gently puts you down to get his house keys out of his pocket “as much as I love it, it’s going to have to come off here soon” he smirks as he unlocks the door and now it’s your turn to blush. “Let’s just get inside first” you remind him

When you both enter the house it’s quiet aside from the TV that seems to still be playing. You both assumed it was just the babysitter and went to the living room to pay her and tell her she could go home for the night. But much to your surprise the kids were still on the couch. It seems as if they had fallen asleep during the movie.

“Thank you so much Kimmy” you do your best to keep your voice down so that the kids won’t wake up “Here let me pay you extra, the kids love having you here” Shoto pulls $50 out of his wallet “Oh, sir you don’t have to do that” she reassures him “I absolutely do, I don’t know what we could do without you” he explains to her and convinces her to take the extra cash.

“Let me help clean up” she offers referring to the coffee table that was littered with dishes and snack wrappers “Nonsense, it’s late, you should get home” you reassured her

After you both made sure she got in her car safely you shut your front door once more, and decided to go check on the twins.

As you two approached the living room you had your fingers crossed that they would be asleep so the two of you could retreat to your shared bedroom. You and Shoto leaned over the back of the couch to find Yumi, the “youngest” twin and Sadao, the “older” one both tangled up in various blankets and plushies on opposite ends of the couch. The movie they appeared to be watching was Shrek, a familiar favorite of yours.

As you proceeded to pick up the dishes on the coffee table Shoto took the liberty of finding the remote to turn the television off. But as you walked off to the kitchen with the dishes in hand the children awoke.

“Daddy?” Your daughter groggily asked as she looked at her father. “Hello darling” he crouched down and smiled at her “Do you need something? Water?” He asked and she shook her head ‘no’

“When did you get back?” Your son rubbed his eyes and yawned “Just a few minutes ago” Shoto responded and ruffled his snowy white hair

“Would you two like to sleep down here or in your rooms?” He questioned “Dad can you watch just 5 more minutes of the movie with us?” Your daughter asked and he briefly nodded, “Of course, but it is a bit late so just five minutes” he confirmed with them

As you had gotten all of the dishes loaded into the dishwasher, you made your way back to the living room to say goodnight to your once sleeping children. But to your surprise Shoto and the twins were sitting on the couch watching the movie.

It just so happened that the scene where donkey and the dragon are sitting in the pile of gold in the castle. Of course you knew that this movie had plenty of scenes that provided adult humor. But, it seems that your husband wasn’t too familiar with the movie.

“Oh my goodness” he actually looked shocked that this was in a supposed children’s movie. “Well I love you two it is getting late” he laughs and shakes his head. “Goodnight” they both say in unison as they drift off back to sleep on the couch with the television still on.

Before you knew it, you knew it you were swept off of your feet and carried up the staircase. “Shoto!” You giggle as you reach down to open the bedroom door. He made sure to shut it behind you before dropping you to sit on the edge of the bed. He then proceeded to bend down and take your heels off.

“You’re so beautiful” he smiles as he kisses your shin while tossing your heels to the side.

Limited Edition

Summary:

“Don’t worry, I’m clearing out all my Nerd Shit.” Deku held up the duffel he was packing. “I won’t take up anymore of your space.” “What the fuck do you mean your space? Everything that’s mine is yours, dumbass!” . Everyone had always said their time would run out. Even Katsuki’s closest friends wondered how Deku put up with him. Katsuki didn’t really know either, but he knew for damn sure he’d never give him up without the fight of his life. And Katsuki was really good at fighting.

"I fucking knew something was up."

Katsuki watched Deku nearly jump out of his skin, like he was a comic book character or something. Deku turned around slowly, guilt plastered all over his face.

"Kacchan! I- Uh, I didn't think you'd be back yet," Deku fiddled with his bracelet, the way he always does when he's nervous. Katsuki had always felt quietly proud whenever he saw that nervous tick. He liked to think that he was lending him strength through time and space via the power of a 15-year old friendship bracelet. But if he was, the nerd wouldn't be packing up and leaving in the most cowardly way possible.

"Well, I'm back. And I'm wondering what the fuck my boyfriend is doing trying to fucking ghost me like we haven't been living together for years. You even packed up the fucking Silver?!" Walking through the apartment was like touring a fucking ghost town. Deku had taken down the squad photos from the entryway. Packed up his half of the closet. And most of what was technically Deku’s bedroom (but was in reality the All Might shrine) was already stuffed into the half-full duffel bag in his hands.

Deku had been so quiet after the altercation with Shigaraki at that stupid award show. He stopped flooding Katsuki’s notifs with random memes. Stopped nagging him about his shoes. Stopped stealing from his “secret” candy stash. Deku was pulling away, and he knew it. Everyone had always said their time would run out. Even Katsuki’s closest friends wondered how Deku put up with him. Katsuki didn’t really know either, but he knew for damn sure he’d never give him up without the fight of his life. And Katsuki was really good at fighting.

“Don’t worry, I’m clearing out all my Nerd Shit.” Deku held up the duffel he was packing. “I won’t take up anymore of your space.”

“What the fuck do you mean your space? Everything that’s mine is yours, dumbass!” Katsuki hated feeling helpless, but he didn’t fucking know what to do.

His eyes roved over the rolling suitcase in the corner with an already full duffel beside it. How the fuck did Deku fit his entire life into a suitcase and two duffels? Katsuki felt nauseous. Was their life together so easy to leave behind?

“Don’t say things you don’t mean, Kacchan,” Deku gently chided. “You don’t have to take care of me anymore. I’m gonna go back to my mother’s in Musutafu.” Deku’s hands flexed, and he spun around to continue packing. He pressed on, “She’s been trying to set me up at the shop for months now. You know Iida is in the area, and he’ll make sure Shigaraki doesn’t cause any trouble. You don’t have to protect me anymore…”

Katsuki shook his head, like that would change the words he was hearing. Did Deku really feel like an accessory to his life and not his central sun? A sun that both warms and centers him. The object he revolves around, without whom his movements make no sense.

He knew his reputation, but hearing Deku lay out his plan so calmly didn’t make him mad or jealous, so much as unmoored. Deku was the most constant thing in his life. Always cheering him on, always applauding his achievements, yes. But also, always pushing him to be better. Demanding it, even. His north star, his moral compass. Deku would spiral into his crazy rabbit holes and resurface to point him in exactly the right direction. Who would Kacchan be without Deku?

“I’ll still be cheering you from afar! And I’ll buy every album you put out and everything. But everyone says it would be better if I left you alone and I know tha-”

“What does that mean, ‘better if you left me alone’ ?” He’s not exactly surprised to hear that. Everyone they know has said a variation of that at one time or another. But he thought they were together in shoving other people’s noses out of their business. If Deku needs to go find better, then fine, Katsuki will maybe die inside but he’ll fucking deal. But if Deku is leaving for any reasons other than his own…

“Well, you know,” Deku hedged, pausing in rolling up the All Might 2 movie poster. “That whole thing last month … it uh, got a little out of hand. I swear, I wasn’t trying to make it worse, but-”

“You didn’t fucking make it worse. You stopped me from ending that motherfucker’s life.” Deku was entirely blameless in Katsuki’s eyes. That handsy motherfucker, on the other hand … if he got within 100 feet of Deku again, he was gonna fucking meet Katsuki’s fists again. And they didn’t get along so well the first time.

Deku set down the poster solemnly, looking down at the ground. “I know. Kacchan, I’m so sorry-”

“Sorry for what?” Katsuki was extremely lost here. It’s not his fucking fault Shigaraki doesn’t know how to keep his hands to himself. Or that Katsuki took it upon himself to show him where his hands belong.

What was Deku even apologizing for? He had to know Katsuki of all people would never hold anything against him. Deku could pull his heart out of his chest, and Katsuki would thank him for the privilege to be held so tightly.

Deku spun around, tears brimming in his eyes. “I’m sorry I was even there that night! If it wasn’t for me, you never would have gotten into that fight and gotten into so much trouble! I knew I should have been lying low, but I just couldn’t miss watching you accept that award! And now your career might never recover!” Deku curled in on himself, in obvious distress.

Katsuki couldn’t believe what he heard. “Deku … please tell me you’re not trying to leave me for my career.” He had fucking failed as a boyfriend if Deku thinks he’d choose anything over him. Fame, fortune, fucking food … none of it compares.

Deku sniffed. “It’s your childhood dream. I-I wouldn’t dare take that away from you.” He shook his head, shrinking in on himself. He did that so often. Trying to erase himself, like he doesn't even exist.

“So … you were just gonna run?” Katsuki got still and quiet. “Just pack everything up and leave?”

“I-” Deku trailed off, at a loss for words for once.

Katsuki clenched his fists so tightly, he was surprised they didn’t explode. This fucking nerd really thought he could leave without a trace? Just disentangle himself entirely? As if he wouldn't rip out a part of Katsuki by leaving?

Katsuki was practically a god of music, and his career would survive much worse controversies than this. It’s not a choice between his boyfriend and his career. And if it was? Fuck his career! He's had more than plenty minutes of fame, and the hordes of adoring masses have nothing on the stars in Deku's eyes when Katsuki cooks up a new dish or kills a bug for him or rearranges the furniture or whatever.

How could he possibly think Katsuki would choose a fucking job over him! He almost lost Deku once, he's never fucking losing him again!

He was lucky enough Deku was willing to forgive him once he got his head out of his ass in high school. Katsuki won't leave Deku's side until both of their hearts stop. He'll either figure out a way to keep Deku's ashes with him or to fucking haunt him in the afterlife, depending on which one of them goes first.

“You really thought you could just disappear from my life, just like that?”

Deku nodded hesitantly. “Jeanist has it all figured out. The public barely knows I exist, just what the tabloids said about the award show. Jeanist said he’ll figure out how to spin it for the public, and you can do an interview. Maybe you can say I’m a stalker, or an acquaintance from middle school-”

“An ‘acquaintance?’ Fuck the public! They don't get to have the real me. Only you. If you want me.” Katsuki locked his gaze on Deku’s, heart in his throat.

“Oh, Kacchan." Deku's eyes went real soft. "You know you’re all I’ve ever wanted. I spent my entire childhood chasing after you, worried I would never catch up. You knew, even back then, that I would only bring you down, hold you back, and I chased you anyway." Deku dashed tears away, volume rising as he got more upset. “But you were right. I’m jeopardizing your career. You’ve worked so hard and sacrificed so much to get this far! I can’t ruin your life!” Deku yelled.

“You’re not ruining my life!” Katsuki yelled back. He was still mad and worried, but at the same time, felt so fucking relieved. He hasn’t lost him, not yet. Not ever, if I can help it.

“Kacchan,” Deku shook his head. “Your childhood dream is at stake!”

“Yeah, my childhood dream. I already achieved it. Because of you! And yeah, it's been great and like the best job ever. I’m amazing at it. But I don't dream about the adoring fans, the crowdsurfing, the big stadium tours or what the fuck ever anymore. I dream about you, nerd. Our life together. So what, if they cancel me or drop me? I don't need a label to write songs. I was made to sing, and I’m gonna sing until the day I die, no matter what happens. I can just put that shit on MeTube or whatever the fuck Sparky’s always going on about.”

“But your career-”

“Will never be as important to me as you, dumbass.” Katsuki grabbed his shoulders firmly, ducking to catch his gaze. “Deku, you could slice open my vocal cords right now, I could never sing another note in my life, and I would still want you in it.”

Deku burst into tears anew. “Kacchan,” he huffed a laugh, wiping at his red eyes. “That's a little fucked up.”

“Yeah,” Kacchan shrugged. He stood behind his words though. “You knew that about me, though.”

“Yeah, I did,” Deku gave him a watery smile. “Kacchan, I just want what's best for you. Jeanist said I bring out the worst in you, and you’d-”

“Fuck Jeanist,” Katsuki spat, finally wrapping Deku in a hug. “I need a new manager anyway. And you’re what's best for me. Don't listen to child me. He was a punk.”

Deku laughed brokenly. “Don't say that. He was pretty cool.”

“He was also extremely stupid in some key ways. He was dead fucking wrong about you, in more ways than one. And he might have been right about the singing career, but the idiot thought it was the most important thing in the world.” Katsuki squeezed him tighter. “I can always get another job. I'll never get another you.”

“Yeah, I’m limited edition,” Deku joked.

“Fuck yeah you are. Fucking priceless.”

Don't look at me. The muse said codependent, insanely fucking obsessed bakudeku, but mostly, Bakugo just yelled about being insane about Deku. Idk how whumpy it is, but Deku sure is going through it so 🤷‍♀️

AU of Bakugou has consequences but Izuku never gets OFA and becomes a vigilante

the vigilante thing threw me off for a bit, because i don't do a lot of straight vigilante aus, but then i remembered this one i came up with years ago when i was first getting into bnha:

bakugou does get into ua. actually, he gets ofa. once he graduates it only takes him a year to break into the top ten (not quite hawks' record but not bad either). by his second year as a hero, he's already on track to become the next all might. a lot of experts are saying its only a matter of time.

people have their misgivings about this. he's facing a lot of criticism for collateral damage and attitude problems, especially with younger fans. some reporters who don't make a habit of towing the party line worry about the example he's setting. bakugou doesn't care.

all might has his misgivings as well. he basically picked bakugou to be his successor after he won the sports fest his first year, thinking that his time was running out and he needed to make a choice. he was despondent and had given up on finding the ideal person he truly admired, but the more violent bakugou becomes, the more he feels he made the wrong decision.

izuku didn't immediately take up vigilanteism when he got rejected from ua. mostly he needed an outlet for his frustration with how unfair the world was, so he took up martial arts. when he was in college though, there were a lot of incidents in the area where he lived, and heroes didn't patrol there. he started going out on "leisurely walks" after dark, dealing with any crime he came across, and became some thing of a local legend.

that local legend becomes a not-so-local-legend when izuku accidentally stumbles on a huge trigger manufacturing operation and busts it wide open.

additional headcanons under the cut

look, it's not his fault the factory blew up. that isn't even what he got famous for. he was just trying to sabotage the equipment while he rescued a bunch of little kids that were getting used as test subjects. it's only because he got caught on camera leading them all out of the burning building, one particularly adorable little girl clutched in his arms, that anyone even knows he was there. the fact that he was silhouetted against an explosion in the background made it look like ten time more badass than it was. he was just trying not to drop her.

obviously, he gets arrested for vigilanteism, but he's been through that song and dance before. vigilanteism is classified as a form of illegal quirk use, and he doesn't have a quirk. ergo, he cannot be a vigilante. the police are still scratching their heads when they have to let him go, but he walks. the gaggle of reporters waiting outside are impressed.

the story spreads like wildfire. izuku becomes an overnight sensation. he gets given a hero name -- the green shadow -- and he has like four different fanclubs inside of a week. there's calls for him to be given a hero license, or at least some kind of award.

he keeps doing vigilante work, obviously. first some underground heroes ask him for help with a case, then a support company gives him a suit (for "cosplay purposes" obviously) and pretty soon he's doing actual patrols and meeting fans on the street. he thought giving a few radio interviews (on present mic's show! he's living the dream!) would make it all die down, but people are hungry for more of him. in just a few months, he's a household name. the calls for him to be legitimized increase.

the hpsc ignore all of that. quirkless people can't be heroes. izuku was probably just in the right place at the right time to be in that picture. they don't need to do anything, or acknowledge him in any way. that would be counterproductive, and send the wrong message to the public.

the public disagree.

the thing about the hero rankings is that not every individual person can rank every individual hero. there's thousands of heroes in japan, so even if approval rating data was gathered via website, it would be impractical for people to select from a list of choices. as such, the forms are write-in. people are given five blank spaces, and told to list the heroes they approve of most.

when approval ratings for the next billboard chart are being collected, the hero with the number one approval rating is the green shadow.

the hpsc are furious, but find that, according to their own rules, they can't actually do anything about it. they have to give him the ranking, even though he's not really a hero. a hero is defined as someone who works within the justice system and uses their natural abilities to stop crime and protect citizens, after all. technically, izuku fits that definition.

this is when bakugou becomes aware of what's been going on. he honestly didn't even register the green shadow as being a thing until he was told he got the second highest approval rating. obviously izuku isn't on the payroll, so he doesn't have a "cases resolved" stat, but being the number one most approved hero in japan is enough to get him to number 10. bakugou is pretty pissed.

he gets even more pissed when he finds out who the green shadow actually is.

bakugou does what he always does when deku gets to much attention: he goes to put the nerd in his place. unfortunately the only time he can find deku reliably is during a patrol, so he has to settle for a very public call out. he's fine with that, and fine with having witnesses while he berates deku for trying to be a hero without a quirk. he's fine being recorded while he picks a fight with deku on a crowded street. he's even fine when the cops who come to break up the fight let deku go after they drag him away. little punk's not worth arresting.

he's less fine when his approval rating takes a last minute nosedive, knocking him out of the number one spot he should have been claiming this chart, and relegating him to sixth place. lower than he's been since his debut.

it kind of goes from there. izuku keeps doing increasingly badass things. his approval rating keeps going up. the underground heroes he works with start listing him as a consultant, so he even starts getting paid and has a record of his resolved cases. over the next three charts his rank keeps climbing. first number ten, then number eight, then number seven, then jumping up to four. after two years walking the fine line between vigilante and hero, he's at number two and knocking on number one.

bakugou, meanwhile, continues to decline. he keeps getting into very public fights with deku, and while he considers himself the "winner" in each fight he notices that deku is focused not so much on him but on keeping people out of the way and minimizing damage to their surroundings. people are praising deku for "handling things so well" and "preventing collateral damage" and they're criticizing bakugou for equally stupid things. his approval rating keeps dropping. his resolved cases are dropping too, as he spends more time fighting with deku and doing public appearances to try and salvage his approval rating. his rank drops lower and lower.

the chart where bakugou drops out of the top ten is the same chart where izuku makes number one.

all might reaches out to izuku, at that point. he says he regrets giving ofa to bakugou, and that if he had the choice he would take it back. he says izuku is much worthier recipient. izuku says he wouldn't take it if he had the chance; he likes being a quirkless hero, even if he had to find a loophole to do it. however, the fact that bakugou has ofa, and is using it so recklessly, is becoming a problem. all might asks what they can do, and izuku says he has a plan.

all might throws his weight around to pressure the hpsc into giving izuku a hero license. honestly, it's kind of absurd that their number one isn't a real pro. they should be ashamed it took them this long. the hpsc cave and plan a huge public ceremony to make izuku officially a hero. maybe once the people are satisfied on that front they'll lose interest.

obviously, bakugou has to crash the ceremony and try to kill deku.

izuku does something pretty sneaky at that point. for the firs time in their professional rivalry, he gives bakugou his undivided attention. he starts talking trash, baiting bakugou, goading him to further anger. finally he drops his ultimate bomb: telling bakugou he's only worth anything because of ofa, and that if he can't win with the quirk he was born with his victory doesn't count. bakugou takes the bait, and hands ofa back over to all might like he's taking off his gloves.

bakugou loses, obviously.

after that, things wrap up pretty nicely. bakugou goes to prison for trying to kill someone, finally. izuku becomes number one, and a proper hero for all the world to see. all might gives ofa to someone who really deserves it, one of the kids izuku rescued from the trigger factory. izuku's first hero friend, eraserhead, introduces him to his student, logical ruse aka hitoshi shinsou, and it's only eighteen months before they're planning a wedding. everyone lives happily ever after.

except bakugou.

I bought another volume of the bnha manga and here's my thought process with it so far and like. 90% of my thoughts are about Endeavor because he's in this but there's some other thoughts too.

So onto the thoughts!

1.) the realization of 'oh no, this has the Award Ceremony.

2.) Horikoshi's notes on Endeavor's character page is interesting. Saying that he's too much of a one-dimensional powerhouse character to have been a major secondary character and doesn't have much going on and is just there to be a shitty father for Shoto's backstory. This is.... quite interesting given the developments later. And as a writer, I 100% understand the vibe of 'this one-off character suddenly becomes something major'.

3.) I am really re-iterating my feelings that Katsuki's anger in the fight against Shoto is just. A lot of things. A lot of legit reasons. And also like, the fact that Katsuki is specifically trying to goad Shoto into using his fire? Purposely giving what should be easy opportunities that Shoto won't take? Very telling on how calculated and precise he can be.

4.) Honestly /in general/ while Katsuki is very brutal, you can also see that he's incredibly calculating and quick to pick up on is opponents' strengths and weaknesses. He's not just relying on being a powerhouse, he knows how to handle any opponent.

5.) Izuku: "I swear I'm not All Might's Secret Lovechild. But also I'm gonna make a direct parallel comparison to how I'm not All Might just like Shoto isn't his father and surely this has no implications!". Like I know it's about the role they want to play and the 'same Quirk, but it's your Quirk' thing. But still.

6.) the in-universe advertisement on the back is hilarious because it's Endeavor in a coffee ad but the can of coffee is so fucking tiny compared to him lmao! I'm honestly curious if the in-universe ads continue into the current manga volumes because given how the later arcs go? It's giving the same energy as that part of the Truman Show where he's freaking out and one of the actresses goes into a hot chocolate ad.

7.) Swinging back to Endeavor's character notes page: Idk why I'm fascinated by this but you know how there's a category for 'favorite thing'? Some characters list food or items or activities for what they like. But I keep focusing on how not only was his favorite thing listed as a food, but it's a desert food that's known to be eaten on hot summer days (Kuzumochi).

It's hard to believe that people actually dislike Izuku for "What he stands for" or the fact he's a flawed character when for years, years now people will hate on him for less.

This is the same fandom I have seen some people say Aoyama, a child who didn't actually have a choice, got off "too light".

Same fandom where some people will call Horikoshi a misogynist and then turn around and reduce the female characters to nothing but love interests and future wives. Some of you still only see Ochako as a girl with a crush. Some of you like to bash on Miruko's uniform and people only being horny for her and yet still won't say anything about the male character's costumes and are also horny for those characters yourselves.

Same fandom, now, that will ignore a character's development and that character has admit to being an ass and still be like "He didn't develop at all" and even worse? That character is a child. A child who never even is awarded for his behavior. In fact, often times is punished by the narrative in some way. And yes, I am talking about Katsuki.

Same fandom where some people will attack others over ships. And with shipping, that's the only time some of you will "care" about these characters. Izuku is the main victim of that!!

Same fandom who will be like "fanon is better" when fanon is actually worse.

Same fandom who at a time actually hated the villains, still do and even going as far as to making fun of some of their appearances (like Shigaraki and Dabi)... and really only started to "care" when they "showed out" during the Villain Arc. And by "care" I mean, only finding Shigaraki and Dabi hot as hell and still don't understand their characters. And even if you get why the villains do what they do, some of you still won't acknowledge they're in the wrong, too.

What about the minor villains who just want to cause havoc? For all we know, some of them may come from good homes and just want to be menaces to society. The heroes aren't completely good people either, but don't act as if it's every single one of them who do it for fame (Rock Lock is an example of a hero doesn't actually sees being a hero as a JOB) and every villain has some "excuse" because they don't.

In the case of Izuku Midoriya, some of you will say that Vigilante Deku was the best version of him. No. No, it's not. It was the worst version of himself.

It's not because he was a vigilante. It was because he wasn't taking care of himself. In what way is that the best version of anybody? Neglecting your health?

BNHA: Vigilantes is a perfect story that shows vigilantes not neglecting themselves and still doing what they needed to do to save people.

Often times when I do cross Vigilante Deku fanworks, it's like a totally other character.

My grievance with people "criticizing" Izuku isn't because of what he stands for. Their attitude will come off like he shouldn't have flaws.

Yes, he is a teenager who can only do so much and even as he gets older he can only still do so much because he is still just one person. But he can learn. He still has a long way to go even after however the story ends. Is he not suppose to learn or what?

Question: If Toga dies, will you hate Uraraka? If Spinner dies, how about the other characters? Will you hate them?

Kurogiri is gone but I don't see people hating Aizawa and Yamada.

"But it wasn't their fault! They were trying!"

And Izuku wasn't? Was it Izuku's fault that Shigaraki turned out the way he did?

Izuku wasn't the problem. He tries to be the solution and yes, sometimes it's a flawed solution.

But he shouldn't be the only character the fandom chooses to criticize and hate on for his flaws.

"But he's the main character!" Played out excuse. Played out, it's ridiculous. You're telling me that you're choosing to hate Izuku because he's a flawed main character?

Bullshit. So a character's position in a story is why you're choosing to hate him?

Even though other main characters before and after him have are loved and practically fucking worshipped and yet will have just as much flaws or even more?!

There are folks who love a character despite being gross as hell and they're not the main character. So that "main character hate" is bullshit.

For me, I will hate or love a character not because of their position in story but because of how they are as a character. Sometimes, it just so happens they are the main character. Sometimes, they're not.

Of course, their role can play a part as to how they're written.

Honestly, again, it's hard for me to believe people are "criticizing" Izuku for what he "stands for" when this fandom has shown me countless times the amount of bullshit it will pull. This fandom? Really? Same fandom who will adore other characters for less? Hate characters for less? Who come up with cold ass takes that do not make sense?

What? Exactly what kind of character Izuku Midoriya is meant to be? I'm curious, I really am! (No, no, I'm not.)

Because what it seems to me that even if Izuku was "perfect", the fandom will hate him no matter what.

"BNHA is cop propaganda!" Really? Because the police force here seems pretty "useless" to me. (A lot of the work is done by the heroes.) Sometimes, I forget they even exist until I see like Sansa or another police officer. (Actually, I be forgetting Sansa is a cop.) They're not even the main focus. Maybe it's just me, but BNHA comes off as a story that shows the ongoing cycle of what a previous generation's actions will do to shape the next generation and what that next generation may do to change. It's just that it's being told through heroes and villains and in between.
