I will FOREVER be salty about how Hori paints his characters with valid criticisms against the status quo as in the wrong:
Monoma - hates Bakugou, therefore hates 1A by association and is painted out to be some over the top arrogant asshole who freaks out every time they so much as breath (Monoma's not my favorite, but he's 100% right when it comes to Bakugou).
Rock Lock - doesn't want the first years (maybe also the third years, idk?) involved in the Shie Hassaikai raid due to how dangerous it is and due to having recently had a newborn son, is painted as someone who's being overprotective and unfair to these heroes in training.
Inko - isn't comfortable with Izuku continuing at UA after the Forest Camp Attack, is painted as being overprotective (I have my issues with Inko, but she had an incredibly valid point here).
The media - rightfully criticizes UA's utter inability to protect their students and reign in Bakugou's behavior (the hill I will die on), is painted as trying to unfairly persecute UA/Aizawa.
Present Mic - uses common sense to deduce that there's a traitor in UA's midst, is portrayed as being a shit stirrer who's quick to distrust his colleagues and students (another hill I'll die on).
Gran Torino (a minor one) - calls Aizawa's high expulsion rate as what it is: nasty (showing that even he has standards), is immediately corrected by Present Mic that the expulsions are "only on paper" and Aizawa truly cares deep down (which actually makes it WORSE since it stays on their permanent records regardless).
Other students taking the Provisional Exam - call out Bakugou for being an obnoxious asshole, are immediately painted as "not understanding how hard he works."
Pro Heroes and Present Mic - call out Bakugou for not taking Ochako seriously in the Sports Festival, are told to RETIRE for not understanding how Bakugou clearly works harder than anybody else to be a hero (but then Bakugou proceeds to get the second highest amount of internship offers, so idk what the fuck point Horikoshi was trying to make here).
Vlad King is a weird one because while his one-sided rivalry with Aizawa/1A is obnoxious and unprofessional, he IS a better teacher than Aizawa is and it's a point not focused on aside from an off hand comment by Aizawa. You'd think this would make him examine whether or not his beliefs are truly benefiting his students or have Nedzu call him up and say, "what's up with your class consistently underperforming against 1B?"
Best Jeanist is perhaps the ONLY Pro-Hero to see Bakugou's behavior for what it is and takes him as an intern to rectify it... but proceeds to focus on all the wrong things (his style being the main one) and not really get to the core of his goal.
Society as a whole doesn't trust heroes for a myriad of reasons (some unreasonably, some for extremely valid reasons) and are painted as being unfair and incredibly biased against heroes as a whole.
Izuku leaves UA due to AFO having Ragdoll's Quirk, is essentially ganged up on and beaten/shamed into submission by Class 1A who completely disregard his POV (I don't agree with him putting himself in this position, I'm just pointing how it makes sense narratively).
Me, trying to make sense of all of this -
Like... how is your story supposed to be nuanced and your characters three-dimensional if you paint the complainer as always in the wrong?
#mha critical#bnha critical#horikoshi critical#anti bakugo katsuki#anti shota aizawa#present mic deserves better#rock lock deserves better#neito monoma deserves better#izuku deserves better#best jeanist deserves better

Best Jeanist: What’s going on?
Hawks: I said Enji has the best resting bitch face, and Rock Lock got offended.
Best Jeanist: Rock Lock, you have the best ACTIVE bitch face.
Rock Lock: Finally, some respect!

Rock Lock is just here to save everyone from being crushed to death and to bitch at every person involved in the making of this harebrained plan. In an ideal world, he would have also brought this energy to the Paranormal Liberation Front War Arc.
#bnha reread#bnha 147#rock lock#takagi ken#if he had brought this energy to criticizing the HPSC then we're talking great character potential

MHA WAR ARC SPOILERS
Rocklock must be PISSED,, hes been saying that "the kids can't take the fall for the pro's not doing their job" (during the shei hassaikai arc) but now, in the middle of this war where all might is not even on scene, endeavour is missing an arm, his son, and his mind, and hawks is this close to losing his Quirk, rocklock says to an ex-commision pet/hero convict that "that kid (izuku) is our only shot at winning the war, everything rides on him."
#my hero academia#bnha#mha#rock lock#mha war arc#lady nagant#like damn id be pissed too#fym watching izuku take out the biggest yazuka overlord wasnt enough#he had to watch him singlehandedly win the war too#they didnt even win#not in my eyes

You know what made me take to Rock Lock rather quickly?
He treats being a Pro Hero as a damn job.
Look, debut episode he came off "mean", but plot reasons and genre aside, he had a fucking point.
Why in the hell were high school kids brought in to deal with the damn Yakuza?
Mind you, this is coming from a man who has a whole wife and a baby son.
Compared to Endeavor, Rock Lock is a lot better than his ass. In fact, he's a lot better than most of the Pros considering most of them treat being a Pro Hero like being some celebrity. Mt. Lady and Best Jeanist are examples.
Uh, didn't Endeavor not only become a Pro Hero because he wanted to one up All Might and even went as far as abusing his family?
Rock Lock being "mean" isn't him being malicious compared to some other characters who are a lot worse to children.
He was making a point that being a Pro Hero isn't some game. You literally put your life on the line. Let me remind you that some of the kids want to be Pro Heroes just to be famous, Mineta for example.
I would be critical, too, when if someone decides to risk their life for the sake of just wanting to be popular. The man has experience being a Pro Hero. He probably has seen Heroes die!
Seeing kids, children, minors walk into a meeting about dealing with an evil organization in that was currently lead by a man that was EXPERIMENTING ON A CHILD probably brought fear into the man as he, again, has a family he loves.
Unlike some fucking Pro Hero.
And it's not like he is this "cold, heartless angry" man. He indeed gives credit where credit is due. You just have to earn it. Midoriya is my baby, my green sunshine, he is my favorite. But in the eyes of Rock Lock, he needed to prove that he wasn't one of those people who wanted to be a Hero just because. Again, Midoriya is a child, one who is sometimes reckless when his emotions get the best of him. That is not good when it comes to being on the field when fighting villains who are unpredictable and could kill you.
Also, during the Shie Hassaikai arc, he did show concern for Amajiki when he got hurt. So again, he isn't heartless.
He's just professional and doesn't play games.
Endeavor didn't even want to take Bakugou and Midoriya in for the Work Studies, he was actually annoyed by their presence.
What does that tell you about his character?
Exactly what was his excuse for that annoyance when they came there to get experience. It wasn't as if he didn't get to train Shoto. He was just being a little bitch.
People wonder why villains are the way they are, but if some of these Pros cared less about their fame and egos and more about the fact that their duty is to save people like Rock Lock, than maybe the villains wouldn't be the way they are.

BROOOOOO WHY ARE PEOPLE USING THE SCENE IN MHA SHOWING ROCK LOCK'S WIFE AND BABY TO MAKE RACIST MEMES I'M SHITTING MYSELF
THEY *EDITED*. A BLACK EYE ON HER.
(The screenshot is from a The Click video)
(The original image)
(The FUCKING MANGA PANEL)
I'M?????? WHAT KIND OF THIRTEEN YEAR OLD IDIOT IS USING AN ANIME THAT'S SPECIFICALLY ADVOCATING *AGAINST* THE DISCRIMINATION OF MINORITIES (as seen in season 6, when there's a surge of hate against people with mutant quirks and Izuku saves the unnamed civilian woman who's feared because of her appearance) TO TRY AND MAKE A POINT THAT'S NOT EVEN BASED ON A CANON INCIDENT????
(The ordinary woman with the mutant quirk in case you don't remember)
Keep the name and imagery of mY FAVORITE ANIME OUT OF YOUR RACIST MOUTHHHHHH
