Hiya! Just a reminder that no matter what happens with Underverse, we are still a strong community filled with kind and creative people. Kind, by the way- harassment is never okay, and it's awful that so many artists are driven away from their passion just because someone wants to beat down on them. uuhhhhhh anyway that's it i like cross he a silly fellow

update part two: THE SPOILERING
~*~THIS POST IS ENTIRELY ABOUT BNHA MANGA SPOILERS.~*~ IF YOU ARE NOT CAUGHT UP WITH THE CURRENT EVENTS OF THE BNHA MANGA, PLEASE DO NOT READ THIS POST. I do have a separate "hey guys I'm back" update post here which is spoiler-free!
THIS POST, THOUGH, IS NOT SPOILER-FREE. IT IS THE OPPOSITE OF SPOILER-FREE. IT EXISTS SOLELY FOR THE PURPOSE OF DISCUSSING THE BIGGEST, MOST SPOILERLY SPOILERS EVER. IF THAT IS NOT YOUR DESIRE, PLEASE PROCEED AWAY FROM THIS POST WITH ALL HASTE.
I am, however, assuming that something like 90% of this blog's readership does, in fact, know exactly what this post is about, which is why we are going to TALK ABOUT IT right here and right now underneath this tidy read-more.
okay, so! gonna stick with the random imaginary Q&A format from my other post just to make things easier.
1. "wow makeste, way to randomly go on spoiler lockdown hiatus for NINE WHOLE MONTHS only to MAGNIFICENTLY DROP THE BALL by running smack dab into THE BIGGEST BNHA SPOILER OF ALL TIME."
I know right??
2. "so what do you have to say for yourself."
short version: I made the critical tactical error of existing as a human being in the general vicinity of the internet in early August 2022. very poor move on my part. rookie mistake.
long version: so there I was, minding my own business, watching the trailer for BnHA season 6, as one does. when out of nowhere, YouTube's algorithm decided to be all "OH? THIS PERSON LIKES MY HERO ACADEMIA? BOY DO I HAVE A RECOMMENDATION FOR THEM." next thing I know, I'm scrolling through my YT home page and ALL OF A SUDDEN THERE'S A DETAILED PICTURE OF MY SON'S MANGLED BLOODY CORPSE, RIGHT NEXT TO AN ALL-CAPS DESCRIPTION READING -- I SHIT YOU NOT -- "BAKUGOU REALLY JUST DIED!!! THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING!"
seriously though. that is word-for-word verbatim what it said. the internet literally got right up in my face and said "OHOHO!! LOOKS LIKE SOMEBODY FORGOT TO DELETE LITERALLY ONE SINGLE MHA-RELATED VIDEO FROM THEIR WATCH HISTORY! TIME TO DESTROY HALF A YEAR'S WORTH OF PAINSTAKINGLY DILIGENT SPOILER AVOIDANCE IN ONE EARTH-SHATTERING BLOW!" and just like that, my miraculous fate-tempting seven month spoiler-free streak came to an end. the sequel to blah blah SIXQUIRKS. something something BAKUGOU DIED. JUST THOUGHT WE'D SHARE THAT LITTLE UPDATE WITH YOU. HAVE A GOOD ONE, AND DRIVE SAFE!
so naturally my first reaction was basically just. looooooool :) :) :) what the fuck.
here I am. a working mom. who left her seventeen-year-old fictional son in the care of a 36-year-old Japanese man for the better part of a year because HE SAID he would take good care of him. Jump Festa 2022!! quote unquote!! "I’ve said this to Okamoto [Nobuhiko]-kun in LINE, but Katsuki will be having his greatest scene in the manga in future developments. I hope people who like Katsuki and hate Katsuki will look forward to it." bruh. we have the receipts right here! "greatest scene," he said! oh, goody, I said! something to look forward to when I finally have the time to catch up! "yes," Horikoshi smiles evilly. "something to look forward to, indeed." this fucking guy. can you even believe.
and just to be clear, when I say that I was otherwise 100% not-spoiled up until this point, I mean it. one hundred percent. I had absolutely ZERO knowledge of anything past chapter 339. the last I saw of Bakugou, he was hanging out with the rest his class showing off his cool new moves to Deku and being blindsided by Aoyama's betrayal and stuff. then bam. seven months later, fate mails me a postcard of him lying on the ground with a bloody hole in his chest. like WOW, OKAY. ZERO CHILL. OF COURSE THIS WOULD HAPPEN THE ONE TIME I DECIDE TO GO ON HIATUS FOR TWO HUNDRED DAYS, SMDH.
anyway so that's my story.
3. "so exactly how spoiled are you?"
lol I'm not even sure. I guess my best answer would be, "SOMEWHAT?"
or, if you don't mind reading more words, I can tell you exactly how spoiled I am by summarizing the Things That I Do Know in a bullet list.
THINGS THAT I KNOW
all of this apparently takes place between chapters 359 and 362, with 362 being the big "oh he DEAD dead" chapter. I think. based on all the fics that have since cropped up on AO3 with ominous chapter 362 spoiler tags.
I am pretty sure Bakugou was fighting either Tomura or AFO when it happened.
I have this vague idea that somehow his heart exploded or something?? like I don't really know the details, but that's what I've been able to glean.
apparently Jeanist and Edgeshot were involved in some sort of effort to save him?? but apparently that didn't work out too well I guess. OR DID IT? I actually do not know.
I have the vague impression Edgeshot may have also died, somehow, as a result of those heroic efforts. OR DID HE? again, I actually do not know at all. this is basically the knowledge equivalent of me overhearing half of a phone conversation between two people who were trying to recollect half of a phone conversation that they in turn overheard, several months earlier.
lastly, I know that Bakugou was apparently carrying around his All Might trading card from waaaay back in his chapter 118 flashbacks, in his pocket or something. because he's a giant fanboy nerd. who wanted All Might to sign it. but was too shy to ask I guess. "WHO COULD HAVE SEEN THIS SENSITIVE SIDE OF HIM COMING?? BAKUGOU CARES ABOUT THINGS??? HE REALLY DID LOOK UP TO ALL MIGHT JUST AS MUCH AS DEKU THE ENTIRE TIME??? WHAT A DEVASTATING REVEAL?!?" is how we were supposed to react to this, I'm guessing, lol. but I'll have you know that SOME of us have already written approximately 1200 essays on how much of a secretly sensitive All Might weeb Bakugou is, and so WERE ACTUALLY NOT SURPRISED AT ALL! yeah that's right! TAKE THAT HORIKOSHI. TRYING TO CATCH ME OFF GUARD AND MAKE ME CRY. WELL YOU WASTED YOUR GODDAMN TIME, because I would have cried anyway! and I did cry! and I will cry again!
anyway so yeah. and I think the card got blown up and/or otherwise destroyed somehow, just to add insult to injury. which, don't tell anyone, but between you and me, I'm not sure what he expected. "let me just take my precious limited edition All Might trading card, my most prized possession, along with me into the intense final battle with the final villain. for good luck or whatever. there's no way this could possibly end badly." did he even bother to put it in a zipper pocket. wtf were you thinking Katsuki. again I do not actually have the slightest idea since I have not actually read this chapter lol.
anyway! so that's everything I know! and let me just add to that a quick summary of things which I in turn do NOT know, the short version of which is: Literally Everything Other Than What I Just Typed Above. including but not limited to:
whether Bakugou actually was fighting Tomura, or AFO, or both. ??
who was fighting with him (except that for some reason or another Deku wasn't there, because I guess he fucked off to go do something else?? you and I fell into the exact same trap there, Deku. "surely Kacchan will be fine and dandy for the next five minutes or hours or days or however long while I go take care of this Other Important Business." yeah, you would think so, wouldn't you? BUT WE LEARNED OUR LESSON, DIDN'T WE.)
what Deku’s reaction was (but I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say: PISSED)
literally anything else about the context of this fight, including where, when, and why it took place.
literally everything else that has happened in the manga since chapter 339. for real you guys. I just have to stress again how utterly out of the blue this was for me. to read this spoiler completely without context. WHAT HAVE THESE CHILDREN BEEN DOING FOR THE PAST NINE MONTHS. I'm terrified to learn the answers lol.
anyways but moving on now to the most important section of this post, starting with the one question which I think is by far the most pressing and important, and which I can thankfully answer with a single sentence.
4. "so... do you think he actually is dead?"
no lol.
but since you insist, here is my list of Reasons Why I Don't Think Bakugou Is Actually Dead, based on my nonexistent knowledge of the events of the past 40 chapters, and the actual context and details of his death. and I guarantee there is not a single point here which has not already been discussed to death on thousands of other blogs, but dammit I've been stuck without an outlet for all these thoughts since August, so the hell with it:
so for starters, in my experience, characters whose older selves narrate the story From The Future ("in that moment, there were no thoughts in my head... my body just moved on its own") tend to be pretty immune from dying, overall. just throwing that out there.
from day one, the series has made it very clear that this is the story of how Izuku becomes "the greatest hero" (more recently retconned/updated to become a pluralized "this is the story of how we ALL became the greatest heroes").
also from day one, Katsuki's narrative arc has been set up as a (first contrasting, and then later evolving to be more complementary) parallel to Izuku's, down to them having the same goal.
as the series has progressed, that concept of "becoming the greatest hero" has been further defined as "becoming a hero who always wins no matter what, and always saves everyone no matter what."
Katsuki in particular has expanded on this idea to emphasize that the greatest heroes are the ones who save EVERYONE, no matter what. "I made a pledge! I will achieve absolute victory, every time! we're taking this 4-0, no casualties! the strong don't settle for anything less!" and more recently, "because to live up to those ideals and surpass All Might... we gotta save you, the civilians at U.A., and the people on the streets. because saving people is how we win."
therefore, any victory in which either Katsuki or Izuku dies in order to defeat AFO is not a perfect victory, and will not result in them becoming the greatest heroes.
this is also a flagship Shounen Jump manga and the spiritual successor to the Big Three, meaning this would basically be the equivalent of killing off Sasuke or Zoro or Rukia. a.k.a. not gonna happen ever lol.
on top of that, it's also Horikoshi's tribute to Western comics, particularly those produced by Marvel, a.k.a. the guys who practically invented the No One Ever Stays Dead trope.
and last (actually not last but this really is getting too long) but not least, the number one reason why Katsuki cannot and will not actually die: because AFO does not get to win. seriously. he just doesn't. he got to kill All Might's important person and be all smug and cruel about it. he killed Nana's family and was all smug and cruel about it. he's tormented generations of heroes by deliberately targeting the people they love most. and so even without me knowing the actual context or circumstances of Katsuki's supposed "death", I have no doubt that's why it happened, because that's what AFO does. and that's who Deku loves. and so of course AFO would try it, yet again. that's his fucking modus operandi
but, because he is the final villain, we know he is going to lose in the end. and so this, imo, is the biggest and simplest reason why Katsuki isn't dead: because if he is actually dead, then AFO wins. even if he himself dies in the end. he gets to go down knowing that he took a part of the hero with him. he gets to hold on to that one last triumph. even though he loses, he keeps the hero from winning and saving, and he gets to savor that.
so, since we know that he's NOT going to win, because this is a "good guys win" type of story and not an "evil prevails, sorry, it's called REAL LIFE, bitches, enjoy your tears" type of story, that means that Katsuki is not actually dead. or will not stay dead. either way. period.
anyway so yeah! that's basically the gist, though by no means are these all of my comprehensive thoughts, and I can safely promise you many more rants to come, especially as I prepare to take on the challenge of reading through 39 new BnHA chapters with the foreknowledge of my son's untimely not-death looming in the back of my mind the whole time! looking forward to that! both ironically and unironically! should be interesting to say the least lol.
so on that note, one final q&a before we conclude:
5. "is it cool to discuss other manga spoilers with you?"
I would prefer not to, mainly in the hopes of trying to preserve as much of the "pure" unspoiled liveblog experience as possible, both for myself and for anyone else who cares to actually read said liveblogs. I do already feel bad for depriving people of the experience of watching me naively frolic my way through the upcoming arc(s) all BLISSFULLY UNAWARES lol. instead you'll have to settle for watching me timidly cry my way through while yelling at every single character who blindly tempts fate with their stupid foreshadowing comments. and don't even try to tell me there won't be foreshadowing comments. I know what type of story I'm reading. and more importantly, I know exactly the type of person who's writing it. ~*~gReAtEsT sCeNe~*~. you son of a bitch. THIS ISN'T OVER, HORIKOSHI.
anyway, so basically I would prefer to be as spoiler-free as possible, same as always. but I also no longer have the time or frankly the will to police every potential spoiler out there, so at the end of the day I'm pretty much just going to leave it up to you guys! also because I figure that at this point, WHAT'S THE WORST THAT CAN HAPPEN lol. (but for real there's probably a ton of important stuff that could easily be ruined still, so yeah if you don't mind let's just try to steer clear of all that lol.)

What if I misinterpret the infodump as randomly sharing random thoughts in my mind instead?
I have never read the Percy Jackson books so oof to any/all references to that series as I will be blind to them.
Every now and then I scroll through youtube shorts and while it seems like a good place for animation memes, I hate how hard it is to find out the names of the songs. You have to click the three dot menu to get to descriptions and they barely write anything in descriptions. So I have to type the lyrics into google if I really want to know the song.
I found a song that sort of fits the relationship between two of my ocs (original-original as they weren't made as a fan oc for anything). I found this song through googling lyrics as it seems to be a bit of an animation meme in youtube shorts. The song is Dear Arkansas Daughter by Lady Lamb. One of the characters is named Riddles.
At times I like to try to imagine how my characters would work in different series. For Riddles I have imagined her in the Twst universe since it's one letter away from Riddle's name. Her species can cast a strong type of illusion magic that can be debated if its altering reality or not. So if Riddles was in Twst, I can imagine her making herself look like Riddle and answering whenever someone calls for him. Sometimes she just makes her Riddle disguise a few inches taller or shorter just to mess with Riddle.
If Riddles was in one of the Twst dorms, it would most likely be Octavinelle. I suppose this means Riddle gets another terror from the lavender dorm. Riddles would also try to hide the extent of her powers since in her universe her species is on the brink of extinction and considered an absolute nuisance.
I suppose I'm now questioning how do you feel about random and too much stuff being dumped on you? I do have some more ideas of Riddles in Twst.
I have several characters of mine that I've imagined different scenarios for them to be in Twst but should I actually share that? I haven't even set up their bios for my ocs thing.
i'll be honest it's gonna take some time for me to process the info before i answer c:
so what i get from your ask is that you've never seen percy jackson (and i will not spoil it for you, it's a good series better than harry potter imo), animation memes on yt shorts are good but the songs they used are barely ever in the desc, riddles is an interesting oc and i love the chaos C:
anyways yeah i do like people info-dumping me randomly :D about your ocs, you should set up their bios first when you have the time to methinks :D

The most obvious reaction to fixing 'dopamine addiction' is to quit cold turkey, but maybe you could give it some more thought and apply a more nuanced approach. Personally it depends on the situation/platform, and here's how I try to limit access to overstimulating social media websites.
First off, Facebook and Instagram are networks I've deliberately decided not to participate much of. Facebook right now is just a pit of people saying things that I would want to respond to passionately, and most of the time it's not the most productive or constructive use of the platform. I daresay it's also where people are most pre-dispositioned to 'judge' other people, it's as if you're there to evaluate the life choices of people that you know. Lol. So I'm permanently logged out (deactivated now, though I keep Messenger).
Instagram on the other hand is where I go to feel sorry for myself? LOL it's actually a useful platform (for work) but as I can't really go there and not feel bad at myself and life choices after ten posts down, I just stopped using the network casually. If Facebook is where we're disposed to judge other people, Instagram is where I'm disposed to judge myself. 🤷♂️ So I'm permanently logged out except if I'm using it for work stuff.
Twitter is where I'm overstimulated 💀—Twitter is just a short ⌘-N t for me regardless of what I'm doing. Out of habit muscle memory just opens a new tab/window by default and types in 't'. Google would know how many times I've had search queries for 't' because sometimes the twitter suggestion on the url bar doesn't even load that quick (and I have a decent internet connection most of the time). That's how much of Twitter-trigger-happy-person I am. 🤡 I check it randomly in anticipation of finding something cool—and most of the time I do find cool and productive stuff. I work mostly in design and development so I do get a lot of ideas, inspiration, advice, and intersting things through Twitter because I took the time to trimmed the people I follow, I've muted most things that would lead me to doom scrolling, and generally I find interesting content that could actually benefit me.....but the same would also lead me to spend so much time on Twitter. It feeds me so many things that I could actually benefit from, but the act of being on Twitter itself is what's really harmful! The way I've dealt with this is actually just using Twitter on a specific device (in my case, my iPad), and not anywhere else even on the computer. This allows me to triage things I will have to check out later on the computer, while intentionally creating a mental and physical barrier to accessing Twitter—while at times I do have my iPad in bed or on the couch it's usually when I'm watching or reading something—activities where I most of the time put the iPad away back to a proper table. Having it on my phone would make me tempted to just scroll and scroll anywhere I can be comfortable. (Continuing on the theme for the past two paragraphs, Twitter is where we judge everyone.)
YouTube, I do watch videos, but often there's a limit of two-three videos simply because the thought of having to spend time sitting and watching a video can be daunting—I'm watching this video as my leg is fidgeting restlessly (even though it's a welcome reminder). This is why I'm really putting an effort into commenting on this video (on many videos actually) so at the very least I spend time to think about what you've said and internalize it in my life, and have valuable practice time to being able to work out my thoughts into writing. As I'm typing this the fidgeting went away, and it kind of tricks my brain that I'm YouTube satiated. And I have a sort of obscure Tumblr blog where I post most of the things I write just to have the satisfaction of publishing something. Engagement on YouTube (or even that blog) isn't something I'm really looking forward to, and replies often come sparsely, so I'm able to manage YouTube time better than anything. (Again, following the theme, YouTube is where I look forward to be judged—watching self-improvement videos or even just videos about my interests really challenge me to do something about it, or make something of it.)
But in general the way I deal with overstimulation is to think of how to set it up in such a way that I have to create something constructive/productive in return—whether it be long YouTube comments, a blog post that no one reads, or making copious notes out of it for reference in much larger projects.
This is why I agree that making lists of things that you can do when you want to be stimulated is a very good idea. Interesting things I find on Twitter that I deliberately store away for checking out on the computer allows me to have time and space to explore the ideas further. Marking things you need to watch on YouTube is a good way to stop simply scrolling down the homepage for stimulation. I've also taken advantage of all the free two-months of Skillshare from countless YouTube creators by bookmarking courses I want to take so that when I have another account (after deleting the old one), I can just get right into the next class I have to check out. Anyway, you get the idea.
And well, most importantly it allows you to actually do the things you need to do—sometimes all you need is a prompt—and feel good that you've been able to accomplish something even in your down time.
So, really it's about being intentional with how you consume things, and thinking how best to approach the thing that overstimulate you. This has been another long YT comment (LOL), but if you've made it this far, tell me what you think!
