A little rant over the why I consider that Bakugou Katsuki is autistic
Disclaimer: This is just one of my many mha theories. I would rather if people didn't attack me for this. If you don't like it, just ignore it!. Also, I believe he probably has PTSD as well, but thatâs for a different post. This post HAS manga spoilers!
I added pictures this time!
______________________________________________________________
Special interest
I believe Katsuki has two special interests. Becoming a hero, and All Might. He is a person that constantly feels the need to mask, which leads to him hiding and minimising his special interest in All Might despite being an All Might fan basically his entire life. A clear proof of this, is keeping hidden his All Might limited edition card despite always carrying it in his pocket. The reason why he doesnât mask his special interest in becoming a hero as much, is because itâs an interest that he has been praised for through all his life after his quirk manifested. (Which I find quite interesting, taking into account how this gives us more insight about how their society works, quirk and quirkless discrimination, and the way society praises and treats heroes as gods).
Low empathy and emotional dysregulationÂ
He has trouble identifying and expressing his own emotions, despite feeling them very intensely, which I believe leads him to mask by displaying anger. Because of this, he struggles with vulnerability as well, wanting to maintain his reputation and image of strength and victory, and hiding all of his potential âweaknessâ, including, his autistic traits.Â
He also struggles with emotional regulation, causing him to have sudden âoutburstsâ since he suppresses his emotions, until they explode. (no pun intended).Â
This is something shown in his fight against Midoriya, and how the only way he knew to express his emotions, was through fighting, and being angry at himself, and at the world.Â
He struggles to recognize the feelings of other people, he is unable to relate personally to others' feelings, and doesnât know how to show empathy, especially verbally. (This doesnât mean that he doesnât care for the people around him. He is actually a very kind and caring person. He helps Kirishima study, he defends his classmates, he trains with Izuku. The first thing he asked after waking up from a severe injury was how Todoroki and Midoriya were. In the manga, we see him taking into account Shoutoâs past, and actually listen to him when they were dealing with the kids. He clearly cares for the Todorokiâs too).Â
He needs routine
He has a very specific routine, and always goes to bed at the same hour. This could also be because he needs to spend some alone time after a long day of socialising and dealing with sensory input in order to calm down and relax, and actually be able to sleep.Â
He needs to have time to recharge
Apart from what I just explained about his routine, this is also something we see after he has a panic attack during the Battle trial Arc. He leaves early, making Deku and All Might worry that he was going to drop out, when in reality, he just needed time for himself.Â
Has a different way to view the world
During the sports festival arc, when he was analysing one of the fights, we got to see a little bit of the way he methodically analyses and understands things, and itâs shown that one of the things he does to take things apart, is thinking about it like a videogame! (Which I find really cute by the way, especially because he doesn't strike me as a videogame person).Â
Sensory issues
His sensory issues focus on physical touch, as we see him avoid physical contact with others multiple times, for example, when he struggled with the hug that Endeavor gave him and Natsuo and practically ran away. He also struggles with tight clothes, and itâs probably one of the reasons why he uses oversized clothing, and hates the school uniform tie.Â
I believe that in the sports festival he felt overstimulated by the restraints, and that, in addition to his PTSD, and trauma related to the sludge villain, lead him to having a meltdown.Â
(Also, what the fuck with U.A, why would they put RESTRAINS on a child, and then HUMILLIATE him in public, and in television??)
He also has a surprisingly high pain tolerance, which means that he has difficulty processing pain stimuli.
Stimming
He very often grits his teeth, which can be interpreted as a stim, and his way of dealing with the stress and struggle of daily life.
I believe he uses his insults, and curses, not only to avoid having to interact with others, but also, as a vocal stim. Especially curse words. And his iconic âTchâ.
Another example of a stim, can be his habit of creating mini explosions with his quirk when he's under stress.Â
He also has a very atypical posture, which is just a small thing that I would like to mention.
Struggles with social cues and understanding how to behave and adjust depending on the context
This is something that in my opinion, can be seen mostly when interacts with class 1-B, and on the first episode, especially on his discussion with Iida. He overcompensates his lack of understanding of his own body language through his (sort of) aggressive and âexaggeratedâ movements.
As I already mentioned earlier, I believe he uses the curse words as a vocal stim, however, I also consider that the way he casually throws around the world âdieâ, is him not understanding social cues, and the fact that this is usually considered something bad. He probably understood this later and just didnât care though.Â
He avoids maintaining eye contact for too long with others, and stares at the floor very often.
He is also a very âbluntâ and direct person, and wonât hesitate to call people out, even if itâs seen as rude. For example, he was not afraid to call the Todorokiâs out in their diner, and also didnât hesitate to question All Might when they were observing as Izuku train.Â
He is a very observant and detail oriented person
People underestimate how analytic and observant Bakugou is because of his impulsive facade, however, in my opinion he is one of the most observant people in class 1-A. This is something that shines mostly when it comes to battle, for example in the final exam, and in the âFutari no heroâ movie, where he was able to quickly pick up how the quirk of one of the villains worked, and on the joint training arc with class 1-B as well.Â
Strong sense of justice and rigid thinking
His way of thinking is very âblack and whiteâ. An example of this is his difficulty changing his mind about Izuku being useless. (We also know that this is deeply rooted in his insecurities, but I believe this also has an impact on it).Â
His âwin to saveâ mindset, and determination to defeat every villain no matter what, in my opinion is an example of his strong sense of justice.
Speaking differences/strugglesÂ
He very evidently has difficulty with volume control of his voice, causing him to scream most of the time mostly by accident.Â
Other little details that I want to mention
He has a difficulty remembering names and faces, causing him to rely at the beginning on his nicknames. Which if you think about it, usually has something to do with the physical appearance of the person. Kirishimaâs hair, Urarakaâs facial structure, Todorokiâs hair (and quirk), Momoâs hairstyle, Iidaâs glasses, Seroâs âplain appearanceâ (I donât know how else to describe it, donât hate me, I love Sero), etc.
His skull t-shirts that basically grew up with him. He probably likes them because of the familiarity they bring, being an item that he had worn through his life.Â
_________________________________________________
In conclusion: He is autistic and very heavily misunderstood. I love Bakugou, I think he is an amazing, and very complex character, and I love it when people analyse him, so if anyone has anything to add, or a different perspective, please do comment on it.Â
Thank you for reading my one AM rant. Sleep? I don't know her!

Yet another thing that supports my autistic Bakugou theory.
Thank you @I Can Network Ltd
â'Autistic people and the need to sit in unusual positions:' a valuable explanation from The Autistic Life (@theautisticlife/Instagram). It is so important to learn from Autistic voices.â

MHA Guys x Autistic!Reader Headcanons
ft. Bakugou, Midoriya, Kaminari, Kirishima, Sero, Monoma, and Shinsou!
Katsuki Bakugou
always has all your sensory tools on him!
will shut anyone up who tries to talk to you during a meltdown or when youâre overstimulated
gives you space when u need it but always keeps an eye on you anyways
when youâre ready for affection he is ON IT!!! Cuddles, kisses, doesnât matter. But he waits for the signals first.
keeps an AAC app for your nonspeaking moments, itâs on his phone.
he actually has a whole section of apps just for you, sensory stuff, soothing music, you name it
he will protect you from yourself if you start to try and hurt yourself. he will hold you so tightly while you cry.
Izuku Midoriya
now heâs one to notice the MINUTE you get overstimulated! And he will make up any excuse to get you out of wherever you guys are!!
he talks to you when you want to be distracted! And heâll infodump about anything
on that note, he LOVES when you infodump. He thinks itâs the cutest thing you do, especially when you start to lose track of time as you go on.
he will comfort you when you need it! He has a hard time sitting in silence, so he brings fidgets for himself too!
knows where all your sensory tools are in your room, brings his own noise cancelling headphones (he bought you yours! He has the same ones)
Denki Kaminari
oh heâs HORRIBLE at silence! But he will literally zip his mouth shut if he sees you need quiet
he owns a lot of fidgets already and all kinds of flexible seating options (his favorite is one of those exercise balls)
he will play with your hair and draw circles over your skin to meet your physical sensory needs! Heâll also do yoga with you without asking (:
has all your doctorsâ names and numbers memorized just in case you have a really bad meltdown
will go dummy mode as a distraction so you can slip away if you get overwhelmed :â)
never gets mad if you snap on accident, will hold you while you cry about how you feel bad you snapped :((
Eijirou Kirishima
LOVES comforting you no matter what happened, but especially if youâve had a meltdown that you got embarrassed about so you didnât tell him :/
he loves to touch you, to hug you, and gives you the pressure you need to regulate
he reads books about autism to try and understand your needs better
always wants to make sure youâre okay at parties or gatherings, checks in frequently
defends you ALWAYS especially if someone is talking about how youâve shut down. He makes it personal.
forehead kisses and back rubs when youâve had a hard day. He will often tuck you in with your weighted blanket that he bought you for your birthday.
Hanta Sero
oh if you need a place to relax heâs got you! He knows how to set an atmosphere fr
he makes sure to only ever use scents that donât overwhelm you when he cleans his room or lights incense
tells you youâre perfect the way you are and reassures you CONSTANTLY without you asking.
plays games with you because you love them and you said nobody ever wanted to play them with you growing up (heâd never let you feel alone)
genuinely asks how you are, but especially after a hard day. He goes out of his way constantly to check in
makes sure that youâre regulated before bed and as soon as you wake up too! Always meets those sensory needs, but doesnât realize heâs doing it. It just comes naturally to him.
Neito Monoma
he has no problem being a distraction from any and everything you need, he kinda thrives that way actually!
he would entirely kidnap the moon for you. you told him once that the moon helped you feel grounded and less alone, and he almost went on that impossible mission (he didn't because he wouldn't get to see your face if things went south)
always has your favorite movies ready along with favorite snacks!
will never ever make you feel bad for having a harder day than usual. in fact, he will fight you if you even try to apologize
has no problem telling off anyone who tries to give you a hard time when you're already feeling anxious or overstimulated
Hitoshi Shinsou
you are his most important person and he will not let you ever think otherwise
if you even think of apologizing for being too much, he will immediately put his hand over your mouth and hug you
he rubs your shoulders and gives you pressure when you need it, without even asking. he just knows you that well
he IS the human fidget! If you don't have any sensory tools, he's quick to guide your hand to his fingers, his hair, even his face if you really need to ground.
his voice stays low and he guides you through meltdowns, always holding you when you need that, and giving you space when you don't. but he always stays with you.
Hope you enjoyed!!! I think I'm gonna do another headcanon part with other characters too! thoughts?

God Help my possible autism, I've just used my Gay-Dar and Autism detection, with the knowledge of the characters to identify their gay and or autistic traits, the funny part is I don't even know if I'm right .

MOVING ON!
gay.
he is so very gay and i will die on this hill
i will also 100% accept aro ace bakugou
that man is autistic
volume control issues: check
personally i headcanon him as having sensory issues
i dont remember is this is canon or fanon but,,, misinterpreting conversations: check
social issues: check
i view his tiny explosions as stims
onto other things,,,,, def dating kirishima
like dude- they shared a bed in the movie,,,,,
and kiri brought him clothes that he knew would be his (baku's) size and style

Once again thinking about Katsuki getting comfortable enough that he starts stimming in front of his friends
I think he usually needs to grab people when he is excited, or he pats someone in the shoulders or arms when he sees something that he likes
Just, Izuku and him going to watch a movie and there's something All Might related and he starts patting Izuku's arms to show he wants to watch that movie
And he gets a little more bouncy, not like Izuku, just a small change, but his friends notice and think is cute
And he slaps his legs and taps his fingers, or shakes his head a little when he is bored
And he bites stuff (him and Izuku can't have nice pens, they will chew them, the amount of times this guys ended up with their mouths full of ink, they friends bet on which one is going to break their pen first)
And he gets the habit of drumming on his friends backs every time they get in front of him, sometimes when he is listening to music he drums in the air too or taps his fingers over something
I just love him lowering his walls a little, smiling more, understanding that not everyone is against him all the time

No thoughts just autistic bakugou with a male reader who treats him rightđ«đ
Male reader who can tell the difference between annoyance, actual anger, or overstimulation just thru bakugous different genres of yelling
Male reader who doesn't move on to physical touch until he's sure bakugou is comfortable with it
Male reader who texts him "do u want to leave?" When bakugou gets overwhelmed at a party
Male reader who calls him "my beautiful princess with a disorder" when he's apologizing
Male reader who lets bakugou feel comfortable enough to stim around him the way he can't around other people
Male reader who doesn't get offended by bakugous insults bc he knows it's just a vocal stim
Male reader who can also tell when it's a stim or when he's genuinely upset or uncomfortable and knows how to deal with it
Male reader who is generally very calm but will absolutely get violent if someone tries to make bakugou uneasy (i.e. being too much in his personal space, cutting him off when he's infodumping, calling out his stims)
Male reader who is one of the only people who bakugou can infodump to freely and without care, and who genuinely listens and asks questions so he can elaborate more on the parts he likes talking about
Male reader who gets along enough with bakugous friends without necessarily being in the friend group but is close enough to trust that they won't do anything to make bakugou uncomfortable
Male reader who has a group chat with all of bakugous classmates that bakugou himself doesn't even know about so he can check on him without making bakugou feel like he's being coddled
Male reader who bakugou trusts with his life and finds it easy to be vulnerable around
Male reader who notices even the littlest things about bakugou from the things he likes to the things he doesn't, the jokes he finds funny, his demeanor around certain people etc etc
Male reader who also lets bakugou take care of him so he doesn't feel like he's the only one being cared for in this relationship, and lets him know there's a balance to their dynamic that he doesn't often get with others
Male reader who has memorized all his lore and knows what kind of things make him uncomfortable, especially around his family, like when his mom makes snarky comments about him or when his dad acts a little too soft for his liking
Ok that's all I got for now, as u can see I'm REALLY OBSESSED with autistic bakugou right now as I myself am neurodivergent, and I like to think that bakugou would have a partner who understands him the way I wish other people would with međ
these are all based on my own experiences and what I look for in a partner haha

My sister kinda 'quit' the show too because she wasn't really feeling it lol. But I sometimes talk to her about the show/manga because she doesn't mind it. When I showed her the hospital scene where Katsuki cries and says his famous line, my sister almost gasped and didn't believe it was Katsuki saying something like that at first and called it gay af
I have a friend like that. He doesnât really care about finishing the anime but he lets me rant about the manga to him a lot cuz he knows Iâm neurodivergent and none of my other friends like it when I talk about bnha. The only thing is, heâs cishet so he genuinely never realized that Toga was canonically bi and I had to spend like an hour trying to explain it to him because he wouldnât believe me ajdbejd
Otherwise, I just kinda go off about the manga when I want to because I love info dumping and he likes reading info dumps. I even wrote him chapter for chapter summaries of the last arc before the epilogue lmao. He doesnât think anything between bkdk is gay, but he doesnât deny it eitherâŠ
#bnha#bakudeku#bkdk#bakugou katsuki#midoriya izuku#ask puff#puff speaks#puff answers#being possibly autistic is funny though#because I literally sat there and typed out basically a full review of Dekuâs vigilante arc and why I think it kind of lacked#fhe first text I had sent was at like 9pm and the last one I sent was at almost 3 in the fucking morning#I sat there for six hours⊠talking about Dekuâs vigilante arc (which is only like 20 chapters btw) and it felt like no time passed at all#Iâm truly a professional yapper#itâs so hard to mask when it comes to my hyperfixations#which is part of the reason I made this blog in the first place lmao#so I can info dump and not disturb my friends with the cringe stuff Iâm into#they already had to deal with me in high school when I was obsessed with Hamilton - I genuinely just felt bad putting them through it againđ
