I'm seeing so many BNHA fans reflecting on how much they've hated Bakugou Katsuki (which, yeah, valid), especially at the beginning, which is personally funny- not because I didn't want to get him knocked down a peg in Ep. 1, but because that was not my first impression of him.

My first impression of him was this panel (spoiler warning for anime-only fans. And uh idk jumpscare warning for Katsuki fans/stans):

Chapter 362 panel, and oh boy lemme tell you that was the funniest thing to realize because I definitely knew "Bakugou" existed through K*R//B*K fanart I liked before, but I had never heard who was "Kacchan" or "Katsuki" until I saw that for the first time. (I might've thought Katsuki was Denki because he was the other blond from Class 1-A I knew existed)

So yeah I saw this mf asking "Can I still catch up to you", I went "who are you and what's your relationship with Deku", watched the anime properly after years of procrastination, caught up with the manga until it sank in he literally fulfilled the roles I thought Ochako and Shoto had in the story.

So uh in conclusion if I had a nickel for every time I decided to watch something because an important character who happened to be a blond teen jerkass with a heart of gold died I'd have two nickels. It isn't a lot but why has it happened twice-
