I love that we get to see the moment Katsuki Bakugo’s worldview starts to change. I love that he gets a center stage moment to realize he might not be everything he thought he was before UA. He coasted for so long on the assumption that he was just better than everyone else that having to face a class full of peers who were just as good as he is, even better in some ways, sent him into an actual panic attack and I cannot stress enough how important that moment is for him as a character

But what I love most is that Katsuki had his moment of panic and doubt, then said “okay, they’re good. I can still be better” and then buckled down and got to it. He could have sat in his tantrum and refused to change. He could have held on to the idea that he was born better and that was all it would take. But he didn’t. He decided that the one who was the best would just have to be the one who put in the work and then he DID it. Entitled asshole to hardworking asshole is not an easy leap to make but he did it.

#i don’t understand hate directed at Izuku #I do understand how you could hat Katsuki Bakugo if you were looking at surface level #but I will never understand how anyone paying attention could say that Bakugo is a black and white villain wannabe #when he needs to change he changes #it might take him a while but he does it #plus we’ve been watching this show for seven or more years at this point but in canon just barely over a year has passed #so to us it might seem like Katsuki’s rate of change is glacial #when in reality #at the age of a sophomore in high school his personality went through a metamorphosis #like the amount of growth he’s had in one year is absolutely astonish #and it starts right here #well #it actually starts when he backs off of bullying Izuku after he saves Katsuki from the slime monster #but since Izuku having a quirk undid that development entirely we’ll say it actually starts here #Katsuki Bakugo #mha #mha rewatch
