#disney princess! (koji)

[bnha-more-like-bnh-gay]

Okay, headcannon for Izuku's quirk being able to hear animals speaking. Like when he turned, a bird landed on his window and he can hear them wondering if someone could give them something to eat so Izuku gave the bird a bowl of seed.

!!!!!!!! I LOVE THATTTTTTT !!!!!!!!

Koda and izuku are best friends and Disney princesses

My question is, can the animals understand him too? I’m going to say that they can, but if you want a situation where they can’t, that’s totally valid!!!!! Tell me and I’ll do a different set of headcanons for that!!!!

I like to imagine like,,, 4-5 year old izuku hanging out in his room and a bird flies on his window sill talking to themself about food, and little izuku is just in AWE

He’d be completely overjoyed

You cannot tell me that the absolute ray of sunshine that toddler izuku is would not be like, “oh my gosh, animals, I can understand animals, can they understand me? Do they like me? If I talk to them, will I be talking in bird or do they understand Japanese? I’ll get you seeds!!!!! I wonder if it’s all animals or just birds? I wonder-“ and his brain is going a mile a minute while he just runs into the kitchen trying to ask his mom if they have any bird seed

A very confused inko gives him some bird seed and asks if he’s okay, and he’s trying to articulate that he thinks he got his quirk, but he’s an excited 4 year old with adhd, who just heard and understood a bird and is thinking about what this means for his future career as a hero, so give him a moment

He does tell her what happened, and she asks him what the bird is saying and if the bird can understand them, and he says that they can, and he’s just so happyyyyyy

Angst time, because I am a horrible person /j

Hisashi Midoriya is not happy because the quirk is likely a mutation of some kind as it doesn’t have anything to do with fire breath or attracting small objects

So, he does a deadbeat dad thing and dips

Izuku feels so guilty over it, but he can’t bring himself to hate his quirk (good) he gets to talk to animals! He can help them!!

Inko makes sure to tell him that it isn’t his fault and that he shouldn’t blame himself

Family angst is over!

UA

So, our dearest son, izuku feral Midoriya, 10000% sneaks animals into the entrance exam

I like to imagine that he went to the park beforehand and talked to a shit ton of squirrels and chipmunks and asked them to help him with the entrance exam if they could. He brings them food as a peace offering (irl you shouldn’t feed wild animals, I know this, izuku knows this, but he can tell them why they shouldn’t rely on humans for food, we cannot, so just bare with me)

But yes. Just imagine izuku giving a war cry to all the rodents that are, for reasons unknown to anyone but izuku, standing around the gates of the exam area, and suddenly like,,,, 3 dozen rodents just start running in and tearing wires out of robots

Koda and izuku are fast friends who bond over their love and respect for animals

They both have anxiety too and are the only (at the beginning) members of class a who know/use JSL!

Okay, something that just popped into my head because I was thinking of how he’d use this quirk in the sports festival, and all I could think of was like,,, Pokémon trainer izuku

And honestly,,, kinda love that

Like, he’s just in the little ring with shinsou (does shinsou’s quirk work on animals?? Like, if he asked a cat a question and even if they don’t understand him, they still meow at him, would they be under his control?) anyway, I’m assuming shinsou’s quirk doesn’t work on animals. So, izuku just brings in a fucking bear who he bribed with salmon earlier and shinsou is like, “wow. Fuck.”

But anyway. I like to imagine that izuku has a shit ton of bird houses outside his window at home, and this continues when they move into the dorms

Aizawa finds him one night talking to a cat in an alleyway, and he’s worried for his problem child being in an alleyway at night and why is he here???? And then, he sees the cat and understands.

Mic goes to check on the class a dorms the next day because his husband never came back last night and he might’ve run into trouble with his hell class, only to walk in on the green bean and his husband smuggling a cat on campus

Shota, you’re a teacher. What are you doing?

He had to. Don’t worry about it. It’ll be fine.

Anyway. Class a has a new dorm cat :)

I hope you like theseeee!!!! They were really fun to write and think about!!!! Izuku and koda being Disney princesses is now something that I hold very dear to my heart 😭😭

Aaaaas an aside from Long Post about current WIP >.>

Because it's HAUNTING ME and I NEED to know what my fellow Quirk Pondering enthusiasts have to say?

Koda Koji our dear quiet Animal Whispering Disney Princess!

......it...it CANT just be me, right? That is FUCKIN CERTAIN? That his Quirk works on humans? It's that age old fallacy of "ooooh WE aren't Animals! WE are (insert Deity here)'s SPECIALIEST blorbos! Better and different! Completely somehow removed from the ecosystem!"

Like??? ...No?

If his Quirk works, as shown, on bird n bugs n mammals etc. Just ALL across the spectrum Fauna? Then? You buddy, are Fauna.

If it could work on Nedzu, it could work on Precent Mic. All Might. His neighbors and friends. It's? Probably? One of the leading reasons he DOESN'T talk. Especially if he can't turn it off? If his voice has a mutation that just make it... Nice To Listen Too ™. Persuasive. The sort of voice that sound like A Friend, someone you WANT to help and listen too.

It probably scared the shit out of him.

Kid thought he could only effect Mr. Tibbles and the birds. Then as he grew older, stronger, kept talking with his friends in nature? Maybe he got upset one day. Someone was being MEAN. Or Not Listening. Or he was in pain.

Something distressing. Something that would release those chemicals to REALLY set off the Quirk activation as he used it. And...? It effected HUMANS this time too. In a way that Did Not feel Heroic. Feel RIGHT or like something a good person would DO. Not how his parents raised him to behave.

It was scary.

Because Animals? They are his friends. Are helping him. It doesn't hurt them. But... but PEOPLE? That's messy and morally complexe and they AREN'T his friends. He doesn't understand them like he does animals. They don't talk clearly.

I CANT be the only one who thinks this, right?

🖼 my favorite types of characters

📒 three blogs i couldn't live without !!!

ughhh it's so hard because who I like is just all over the place but

romantic villains

pathetic men (Copia, Karl Heisenberg, I kind of consider Constantine here, too)

traumatized women who might even be villains but still have the capacity for warmth??? (Elsa, for example, is my favorite disney princess and also I love Shadowheart and Lae'zel they both really grew on me)

they're just kinda there and offer grounding reality (Darcy, Varric from DA)

GreyMoral Space Prince (Vegeta, Kylo, etc)

Three blogs I could not live without!

At first I wanted to list my long term bestie Bryn, but tbf we do not interact very much on tumblr at all, so

@iomadachd love Calico. Big feels.

@kojiscorner Koji has been around since I started roleplaying on tumblr, and has been an invaluable friend as well as an rp partner, and is often my go-to for anything internet related

@nightmarecountry/ @formshaper frankly Wilds and I don't even rp that often anymore, and I don't know if I could say often ever. But what we have done are some of my favorite things and as a writer and a person Wilds drives and inspires me to be better

[silverynight]

Midoriya with Disney Princess power! And by that, I do mean like a quirk like Koji. I mean, he just gives offs such pure innocence vibes, that animals flock to him. It's a hassle when he needs to go to school, cause now he's gotta shoo all the dogs, cats, birds and what-not to go home, cause school, ya'know?

It's so much worse when he gets into UA, cause they will climb, or try to, over that fence to get to them. Everyone dies at the cuteness overload! And at the training camp, deers and at whatever is those woods just go right up to him, and he dosen't know what to do!

Bonus points if he can understand them, and a quirk is still not involved! :)

They're also very protective of him because he's very kind to them and takes care of them when they need it.

Class A is constantly freaking out (in a good way) because Midoriya with animals around him is just too cute for them to handle. One day he found a baby deer, put her on his lap, petted her head to calm her down, promising her that he'd find her mama, which he did quickly.

It was too much for them; Uraraka activated her quirk on accident, she put her hands on both sides or her face in order to stop herself from squealing with delight and ended up floating over Iida's hair because he was the only one fast enough to grab her ankle on time.

The others were as affected by the sight as she was.

Fanfic Title Summary: “A Real Life Disney Princess”

Koji Koda x Jurota Shishida

In a tale as old as time, song as old as rhyme, the living embodiment of Disney Princesses finds himself being courted by the prince in the beast's body.

The animals are trying to help, really they are... however the human culture is still somewhat a mystery to them.

The chaos compels.

[icy-hxt]

can you tell me what you think about the kids at 1a?

hi anon, I'm sorry that I took so long to answer this, when I saw your ask I felt really lazy, because there's too many people in the class lol

this is going to be a long post, since we have 20 characters to cover, so I'm putting it under the cut

okay, first of all I want to say that I don't hate any of the kids at 1a besides mineta, BUT, I do have a feeling of indifference towards at least half of them and do dislike some, I always thought that the story would been benefited if there were less people in the classes, since hori would've been able to develop them better, so don't expect me to talk a lot about everyone. also, don't take everything that I say too seriously, this is not a character analysis, I'm just doing it for fun.

anyway, the order that I'm using to list them is their seating arrangement in the class, so let's start

yuga aoyama: I already said this here before but I really like aoyama, he's ridiculous in the best way possible, he feels like a character that horikoshi took away from ouran high school club or something. since the chapter where he and deku became friends were released I felt like he deserved more screentime, because his backstory about him thinking of himself as different than the other kids in the class because of his quirk being "defective" is really interesting, I always wanted to see more of his friendship with deku and he overcoming his fears (since he was shown to be easily frightened)

mina ashido: I LOVE mina, I think that her design is so cool and her personality is really likable, when we had the kirishima flashback and we saw her protecting her friends from machia even though she was scared too was the moment that I decided that we deserved to see more of her in the story, I really liked to see she having a bigger role for a female character in a shonen, I wasn't too bad in the war but I still want more

tsuyu asui: okay, this is going to be controversial because I feel like everyone likes her, but I feel really indifferent towards her, maybe I was influenced by one of my friends that really doesn't like her but since that scene where she says that going to rescue bakugo is the same as acting like villains I started to not care about her all that much, and yes, I know that she admitted that she was wrong and everything but yeah, I don't really click with her personality (but I don't hate her, please don't be mad at me kdbdgsusj)

tenya iida: ah, what a respectable little man iida is, I really like him, I think that the way that he take everything so seriously is hilarious, like him acting super dramatically in their exams to be as similar as possible to his vision of what a villain is. I really like how he grew since the stain arc and how he decided to be a hero that prioritizes the safety of others in detriment to fighting the villains. I'm really happy that he became the focus of the story lately and that he was the one who could hold deku's hand, I want him to have a bigger role in the story for now, maybe even encountering with stain again and showing to him that he's now a great hero

ochaco uraraka: I love her personality, she's really cute, and her fight with bakugo at the beginning of the story was a highlight to me back then, but, I feel like her character became too much attached to deku after aoyama made her realize that she likes him, almost felt like her personality was gone and her only defining feature was having a crush on him, anyway, thank god that apparently she's going to have importance right now in the story because she's too much of a cool character to become just the romance interest for the male lead

mashirao ojiro: denki playing with his tail is cute, I think that is funny how horikoshi always describes him as the plain one, it was cool when he refused to participate in the sports festival because he didn't felt like he deserved

denki kaminari: oh this sweet dumbass, I love him, he's so funny and cute, I think that is that funniest thing how he just decided to call bakugo "kacchan" and is super overly friendly with him and bakugo just lets him, I actually don't think that he's "stupid" as part of the fandom seems to think, I strongly believe that people can be smart in their own ways, maybe he's not the brightest in math for example but he already showed to be able to come up with strategies, I feel like denki has a lot of anxiety inside of him because of his quirk, but i also feel like he's really genuine in trying to be a hero, overall I really like him, he's really sweet

eijiro kirishima: this swee- I mean, super manly man is amazing, I feel like kirishima is for bnha what rock lee was for naruto, I really really really like him, I love his personality and I love even more his backstory, he's really a great person and he deserves all the love that he get from the fandom, I hope that we're going to see even more of him in the future

koji koda: he's adorable, his voice is really adorable the japanese dub, his quirk is like a disney princess

rikido sato: he bakes, I like cakes and pies, we would've been best friends

mezo shoji: since I saw that hori said that he uses his mask because people are afraid of him I'm impatiently waiting for his face to be shown, and if he doesn't look like a junji ito monster or something I'm going to be pretty disappointed, anyway, I like his personality, he was really cool at the forest arc (I clearly don't remember the arcs names, I'm sorry lol), and I feel like he could have a bigger role in the story if hori finally decides to address the prejudice against people with mutant quirks

kyoka jiro: she kind of reminds me of a girl that used to bully me in middle school because of the way that she treats denki but I still like her lol I liked how she learned that is okay liking to sing and music in general and being a hero at the same time, because after all a lot of people were saved by music and/or their favorite artists, but since I find her quirk so cool I wanted to she her fighting more

hanta sero: he's funny, even funnier than denki, he has a really relatable sense of humor and I love him for that, his quirk is really cool, but I feel kind of bad for him because deku now has practically the same one and he's not the only spiderman in the story anymore (his quirk being similar to spiderman was actually what made me like him in the first place because peter is my favorite hero ever)

fumikage tokoyami: my 12yo emo self shakes inside of me every time that I see him, anyway, I really like him, how would I not? he has a bird head, he's nice without being overly friendly and dark shadow is really cute, I don't really remember everything that happened in the war but I remember him saying to hawks that he believes in him, so I really wanted to see him frustrated at his mentor because of what he did to twice please horikoshi address the consequences of twice's death, I'm tired of waiting

shoto todoroki: ah my angel, shoto was the reason why I started reading the manga back in 2015, I knew that he was going to be my favorite just by seeing his character design. I love shoto, I want him to become the happiest person in the world because he really deserves it, I know that everyone thinks that deku is what an ideal hero looks like but o me it is shoto, he's kind, sweet, forgiving, has a heart made of gold and is just genuinely a good person, I could talk about him for a whole week without pause and still find more things to compliment about him so let's move on before I write over 10000 words about how much I love him

tooru hagakure: she... exists...

katsuki bakugo: while shoto is my favorite, I have to admit that bakugo has the best character development in the hero side of the story, I used to hate him at the beginning of the series but now I love him, a lot, he shows that horikoshi knows how to write a compelling redemption arc if he planned it since the beginning, I love that he started only having "fight" points at the entrance exam for ua to now having his first priority at saving people, bakugo is other that I could talk about for hours so let's move on

izuku midoriya: I like deku when he's not putting his nose at the todofam business, he's a good kid who needs some self esteem urgently, the way that he never seemed to care about his own well being always made me nervous, even though I never felt like he was in real danger, he's the mc for a reason, to summarize: I like him personality wise but some of the narrative choices that hori made for him are not my favorites

minoru mineta: I don't care, I hope for him to vanish from existence

momo yaoyorozu: she's the stereotypical anime girl with glasses (but without glasses in this case), I like her personality, she's really cute, her quirk is neat and she's super smart but, everytime that she puts her hero costume on... I feel super uncomfortable... this is not her fault of course but I think that I would like her even more if she was less sexualized

I could write more if I take more time to think, but I'm not going to do that today, if you want to know my opinion about other characters or something more specific about the kids feel free to send me other ask

also, I'm sorry if there's any atrocious grammar mistakes on this, I didn't reviewed the text and wrote just what I had in my head in the moment at four am

[kiritouyadeku96]

I have two things I want to say and it’s 1) I find Inasa really REALLY annoying, especially with how he treated Shouto. All because Shouto didn’t want to talk to him, and told him to get out of his way. and 2) how the fuck does Koda even have stans? His quirk is quite boring(literally just a Disney Princess quirk at that if ya think about it🙄), he’s scared of bugs like what an ass your quirk is speaking to animals but your scared of the insect kind. And finally I just don’t understand how he has stans when he barely has any spotlight, and when he does it’s not long enough to stan him. Plus he barely talks!

Hi anon 😊 can I just say I am feeling the Koda slander/hate within this one 😂, and maybe Inasa hate too!

So, I’m going to address the Inasa one first, as you mentioned him first. Now, I’m neutral on Inasa like he has a cool quirk, and all that but he never captured my heart or interest enough for me to care about him. However, the Todoroki situation was mentioned on tiktok, and people were blaming Shouto for Inasa’s hurt feelings and turning him off of attending U.A. Which I can sort of understand I guess, Shouto was a bit cold but at the same time he was struggling. So I understand why Shouto acted like he did, and why Inasa was hurt. I also think one of the reasons Inasa took it to heart so bad was because of his childhood, where he encountered Endeavor and basically got to uh put it nicely shunned. I do see why people find him annoying though not going to lie, and I admit I don’t think I could be friends with him as I’m rather introverted!

Moving on, Koda Koji is a side SIDE character so of course he isn’t going to get much attention, as the main characters and slightly more important side characters like let’s say Denki. Now he probably has stans because people enjoy his character, his quirk and the prospect of him having more moments. I don’t see anything wrong with liking him, I personally forgot he exists admittedly 😅 but for some people he’s a character they really like. Yes, I sort of in a way agree that his quirk is quite boring when you compare it to other quirks, such as explosion, half-hot half-cold etc. However, at the same time I personally would love to be able to speak to animals, with this as you call it “Disney Princess” quirk 😂 though I definitely would not choose it as a quirk to have, I have already set my heart on wanting Bakugou’s quirk! And lastly, yeah him being scared of insects definitely made me go…

But he is a student hero in training, and with training you learn to overcome your fears. Something he did when he was teamed up with Jirou, going up against Present Mic.

[lovespelt]

Okay picture this, Midoriya being a Yamada. Hear me out, Hizashi has a one night stand with Inko who gets pregnant, but dies in child birth. Hizashi has full custody and he's like the best damn father ever. When Midoriya (he kept the last name so that Izuku will know who his mother was) turns 4, his quirk is called Animal Siren the ability to lure animals and to get them to attack people (think of Snow White in Shrek, but as Midoriya). Aizawa becomes Papa no. 2 and Aizawa loves his stepson.

aah wait that is so cute? i love papa hizashi fics 🥺

he rly would b the most enthusiastic dad ever! i bet he would b like one of those PTA moms! like, he would b Super Involved at izuku’s elementary school 

izuku would never doubt that he is loved! bc, like, hizashi would definitely b super affectionate as a dad

also that quirk idea is so cool! kinda like koji’s (i bet they would b best buds in this au!)

i also feel like, with his quirk, izuku would b a total disney princess in this au too?

like, he would always have some sort of bird or fluffy woodland critter hanging around...it would b too cute 😢

love the erasermic aspect too!

i will always love aizawa and hizashi coparenting izuku.. izuku would love his weird chaotic dads so much 🥺 🥺 🥺 

[let-me-vibe]

Koji, tell as about Tori! What are her likes 🥺

|| Annoying me. ....There's nobody in here to snap at me. She likes cake. And flying. And singing. Just.... Imagine a disney princess. Now add Kaori and Jin. Tada. Pain.

BNHA Non/Disney Theme Songs

(This is my personal opinion about the characters and their songs because some others used are overrated)

Yuuga Aoyama - Shiny (Moana), just cause he Cannot Stop Twinkling!!! ☆ (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧★~(◡ω◕✿)

Mina Ashido - On My Way (Brother Bear), this song is really happy and upbeat for an upbeat girl. I can't help but see her singing this with Bakugou just growling at her to shut up (One of Best Girls indeed)

Tsuyu Asui - Hawaiian Rollercoaster Ride (Lilo and Stitch), I just like to imagine Tsu taking every opportunity to go to the beach just for the water (One of my favourite Best Girls)

Tenya Iida - He Lives In You (The Lion King 2), God damn it, poor Tensei!!! I just always feel so bad for these two brothers whenever I watch Season 2!

Ochako Uraraka - Almost There (Princess and The Frog), This girl is so selfless and she practically works her ass off for her goal, I love her so much! (A great Best Girl is what she is)

Mashirao Ojirou - Go The Distance (Hercules), I can see this from a certain angle if he was given some more screen time but it just fits in his case despite being so underrated.

Denki Kaminari - I'm Still Here (Treasure Planet) MY PRECIOUS BABY BOY! I LOVE HIM!!! Because of how some people look down on him (looking at you, Jirou), I believe that he will have his moment to shine soon and I will be so proud of him. My child deserves more praise than he gets. He Best Boi!!!

Eijirou Kirishima - Make A Man Out of You (Mulan), isn't it obvious? Kiri is just so manly and chivalrous, his dedication to saving Bakugou earns him this song

Koji Koda - Barking At The Moon (Bolt), this song really gives me a lot of animal vibes and I thought that it would really suit Koda. It's pure and adorable like himself

Rikido Satou - Be Our Guest (Beauty and The Beast), as a character, we don't know much about him other than the fact that he likes to bake and might be a little self conscious considering that he wasn't expecting to be the winner of the best dorm room competition (And for all the girls to unanimously agree). This was the only song that I felt like would suit him.

Mezo Shouji - Immortals (Big Hero 6), I just picture Shouji going over a training montage with this theme. Other than that, it's a cool song for a cool (and moral) guy with a cool quirk. He is definitely one of my Best Bois but it sucks to see how underrated he is.

Kyoka Jirou - Real Gone (Cars), in all honesty, Jirou is my least favourite character in all of BNHA (I like Mineta more than her and that's saying something) so she was the hardest one for me to decide on a song. But after listening to this song, I just felt the punk rock vibes that definitely go with Jirou so this was my option.

Hanta Sero - Try Everything (Zootopia), ever since the Sports Festival, I always notice how other characters are trying their hardest to improve and Sero is one of those people. He's not just some comedic relief character and I feel like his moment to shine will come soon. This song just really suits his nature in my opinion.

Fumikage Tokoyami - Friends On The Other Side (The Princess and The Frog), Need I explain more? This dark goth just screams friends with the monster under his bed.

Shoto Todoroki - Out There (Hunchback Of Notre Dame), after realising that it was his quirk, Shoto has been showing his attempts to socialise and trying to use his left side for himself and we've all been there at some point in our lives. What can we do other than relate to him? Love him. Just love this pure and socially awkward boi. He deserves more appreciation for that.

Tooru Hagakure - When Will My Life Begin, Reprise (Tangled), she's so upbeat and bubbly and the joy in this song expresses so much of her lively personality as she works to become a hero (another one of my favourite Best Girls)

Katsuki Bakugou - You Can't Take Me (Spirit, Stallion Of The Cimarron), Bruh, this motherfucker is a stubborn mule when it comes to cooperation. They couldn't chain him down at the Sports Festival so what made the League think that they could change his morals by kidnapping him? Bakugou's a real softie at heart and he loves his class and squad very much, he's just to prideful to show it

Izuku Midoriya - Zero To Hero (Hercules), it's in the title. After meeting All Might, this boy has done nothing but improve at a steady and realistic pace. Who wouldn't be proud of him and his driven goals?

Minoru Mineta - One Little Slip (Chicken Little), trust me, I don't like Mineta as much as the next person but if Horikoshi actually put some effort into his character, he'd be a decent guy. So this song was the one to pop in my mind for some on who's *shudders* trying to be cool...

Momo Yaoyorozu - I Am Moana (Moana), like this moment in the movie, Momo was able to find the confidence to push her to pass the final exam for her and Todoroki. She's so sweet and pure and we must all protect her. (My final Best Girl)

Shouta Aizawa - One Last Hope (Hercules), this man really loves his kids deep down but man, has he pushed them to their limits. He's definitely the best teacher a school could have cause he's so unbiased and takes no shit from his kids, that moment when he immediately jumped to fight at the USJ was what made the whole fandom unanimously love him

All Might - You're Welcome (Moana), this man... This secret father... I love him. I can just see him bursting into singing this song specifically whenever he's being interviewed and asked about his quirk which gets the press off his back for the moment. Best Dad. 11/10

Hitoshi Shinsou - Jack's Lament (The Nightmare Before Christmas), this poor boy deserves more love than he gets. His quirk is so cool and he is a great, compelling character cause he's the pure representation of all of us longing for our goals even after people put us down (sit down, Midoriya, you're in the Hero Course). Kaminari is right, he will be a great hero someday.

I love these Disney songs so much that I made a playlist on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/user/pqaanr2qpi9sq9rhcrz1f7b13/playlist/4B3wn8FAA7rJz720H7XUAc?si=tkQMMWEXTdaqJ27kLreiGg

[miriossunshine]

Hello! I’m new to your blog and I can’t get enough of it! Keep up the good work :) May I request a matchup pls? I’m a straight 15 year old girl and I would prefer a student if that’s okay? I’m short and have blonde hair and green eyes. I’m an ambivert who is kinda awkward, kind, goofy and loves making people laugh! I love anything artistic, sleeping, singing and animals! I also enjoy hiking and creative writing. I struggle with impatience sometimes, but I’m working on it. Thank you! :)

hi ty bb! 💜💗

i ship you with koji koda!

koda ofc appreciates your love for animals, and this would help motivate him to show you his quirk! to demonstrate it, he’d command a bird to perch itself on your shoulder hehe

he’d actually do this quite often! if you’re visibly upset, a butterfly will suddenly land on your nose to make you giggle, or a stray cat would rub itself on your legs, letting you pet it to calm you down. and you’d know it was koda’s doing because he’d always want to see you happy! <3

he’s a lil awkward too and knows how it feels so you’d never be judged abt it ):!! ( T_T)＼(^-^ )

koda would love that you enjoy making people laugh. your goofy side would be really appreciated by him because he’s not as outgoing. ( ´ ▽ ` )

your kindness would actually help drive him to talk more! he’d still be quite shy with others, but he’d start to talk a lot more to you because he wouldn’t feel an ounce of judgment with you（＾ω＾）he’d make great efforts to speak when you sing especially, because he’d want to compliment you!

speaking of singing, you’re basically snow white if you’re dating koda already, so add the singing and boom you’re officially a disney princess hehe~

he’d be a little reluctant to join you in hiking due to the bugs, but he’d eventually go with you after some convincing! (//∇//) being with you and seeing all the animals definitely helps calm him down!!

you guys would draw each other’s favorite animals all the time (〃ω〃)

wholesome, judgement free relationship 🙅‍♀️

On Animation

These are mostly some personal views and experiences, you are welcome to read but don’t hold high expectations. In the last 2 years or so I didn’t watch as much anime as I used to, probably because I don’t find anime as entertaining as before. My interest in sakuga and Japanese animators was the first time I found value in animation itself, regardless of other aspects such as the story. The sheer expressive power of Ohira’s drawings, or Kanada’s unique timing, all brought me joy and still do.

Yet even this joy I find in sakuga won’t last forever, and I can say that rarely does any scene amaze me like my first contact with works from not only legendary animators such as Ohira and Kanada, but even Ebata and Tanaka. I didn’t lose my interest in commercial sakuga that’s for sure, most what I watched lately were obscure shows I wanted to see what X animator or X director did in them. It’s just that I’m looking for something new, and I knowingly didn’t experience basically anything the wide medium of animation has to offer.

I think the majority of anime fans, animation fans in general even, just watch animation because it’s “anime” or maybe “Disney”. If an anime with a somewhat good story and almost still good-drawn images was to be produced, I bet it would gain some following and popularity among non-japanese fans at least. I also bet such a thing already happened. This reminds of a funny phrase I heard from a friend: “people think that animation isn’t important in animation”.

But then, everyone is free to prefer whatever they want in my opinion. I just think that people who have this view don’t see the real merit of animation and its real beauty, to a big extent at least. Works with outstanding stories and fascinating themes such as Ghost in the Shell receive praise mostly due to that aspect only, the story and themes, with maybe mentioning “good and smooth” animation as a side point. But such works exhibit what really makes animation what it is and takes of advantage of the capabilities of this medium, just look at the Hollywood adaptation to compare(regardless of the fundamentally different execution).

Maybe the main approach of commercial animation takes most of the blame here. Ask any random person “what is special about animation?”, and probably the answer would be something along the lines of “unlimited imagination” or “fascinating imaginary worlds”, referring to Disney’s princesses or Ghibli's fantasy. Yet live-action movies are capable of creating such worlds thanks to modern and even kinda old technology(if we ignore the ongoing controversy regarding the definition of these works), while other more realistic animation works such as Satoshi Kon’s show animations’ features and perks, the features that are the reason why he famously prefered to use animation in all his movies despite being more of a live-action director in nature. What I’m trying to say is this: animation isn’t just a container with the sole purpose of conveying a story or a message, nor is the importance solely in the content conveyed, but in the way it’s conveyed. That’s why a lot of people who work in animation refuse the idea of mimicking live-action, for example.  

After sakuga my interested shifted towards independent and experimental animation especially the japanese ones, like Koji Nanke and Youji Kuri. The story of independent japanese animators is a long one, better covered here. Watching their works made me realize more and more how diverse animation is, and the different exciting ways to transmit an idea through animation. You may say that everything I said till now was just cretesizing commercial animation and praising independent/experimental animation because I love them, yet I didn’t deny that Ghibli and Disney(2D) movies, which are commercial for sure, are some of the best animation works from a technical and artistic standpoint. What I’m criticizing is the narrow outlook on animation, even among the commercial works. Animation isn’t only hand-drawn or 3D, you have collage and stop-motion and puppets and others. It shouldn’t come as a surprise that the former Association of Japanese Animations(AJA) president, the late Kihachiro Kawamoto, never drew anything, he was but an amazing puppet animator. Before Kawamoto was Tezuka, a person who plainly hates commercial mainstream animation and whose experimental works probably outnumber his commercial ones. Kawamoto’s successor, the current president Taku Furukawa, is a renowned independent animator and one of Youji Kuri’s students. Movies such as Isle of Dogs getting a wide positive reception makes me happy.

A famous use of collage was in Madoka Magica’s labyrinths, which Gekidan Inu Curry duo handled. It consists of Shirashi Ayumi(former Gainax) and Anai Yosuke(former defunct studio named Tanto). Their participation in Madoka Magica and many other Shaft shows came probably due to their relation with the director Yukihiro Miyamoto. I went a bit off track, but all this was to say that I enjoy Kihachiro Kawamoto’s collage works especially such as The Trip(1973), although he is better known for his puppet works, that are great nonetheless. This isn’t because I don’t enjoy puppetry, Jiří Trnka amazes me- for example. I bet that his magnum opus, The Hand(1965), would astonish any animation fan not only in its visuals, but in the way it handles and presents its themes as well, which led to banning this movie that obviously opposes the communist occupation of Czech.

from right to lefr: Madoka Magica, The Trip, Kenju Giga.

Now that I mentioned Czech, it’s one of the richest countries when it comes to animation and animation history. Many other east-european countries as well. Trnka is enough on his own, but even with other animation arts it’s a region that has a rich and old history of experimentation and early works. Tezuka’s inspiration for his short Jumping(1984) came from none other than a hungarian short called The Fly(1980). The animator behind Jumping, Junji Kobayashi, reminds me always of a fun fact about Tezuka. Kobayashi himself has a deep passion for insects and wildlife in general. Alongside being a member of multiple insect societies and organisations, including The Japanese Association for Insects, he wrote a book on how to animate animals based on Mushi/Tezuka Pro's principles. But if there's a bigger insects nerd than him, it's Tezuka, who deliberately added the kanji for insect(虫) in his pen name(same reading to his original name). Tezuka also has some books on insects or animals, in a fictional or realistic depiction. The last book I want to mention, the most interesting probably, is Kobayashi's "Osamu Tezuka That No One Knows - The Mess of Mushi Pro", an interesting title especially when you consider that Kobayashi is one of the oldest Mushi Pro members, having spent about 23 years with Tezuka till his death. Kobayashi joining Mushi Pro in the first place may have been due to Tezuka sharing him his insects passion, as "Mushi" is the same "insect　虫" in Tezuka's pen name after all.

Anyway, what I was trying to say is this: If you are looking for something more than just "brainless fun", try watching different kinds of animation, the world of animation is vast and diverse. Some works that I like(not necessarily a good start for everyone):

Aru Machikado no Monogatari(1962, Mushi Pro)

The first project by Tezuka's Mushi Pro. He tried different styles in this movie, demonstrating his intentions from the beginning. Directed by Eiichi Yamamoto, whose start was in another experimental studio named Otogi Pro, with animators such as Gisaburo Sugii, it is one of the best works the studio produced. It contained a variety of interesting and beautiful styles, even limited animation was used although there is no economical constraint here, what makes me think that it was an experiment before going all limited with Astro Boy later. A great movie overall.

Jumping(1984, Tezuka Pro)

There is a nice interview about this short and experimental works in general with Osamu Tezuka here.

Machikado no Märchen(1984)

The Hand(1965, Jiří­ Trnka)

Tabi(1973, Kihachiro Kawamoto)

Kenju Giga(1970, Kihachiro Kawamoto)

The Fly(1980, Ferenc Rofusz)

How about more Eri hcs with the 1-A dorms?

CHAPELLLLLL I am a jerko who literally looked at this every single day and didn’t answer it… SO HERE WE GO!

Eri refuses to have her own room. Dark + Lonely room = Bad memories. They move Izuku to the highest floor and get two of the rooms that aren’t being used and make em one big room.

Even then Eri’s bed is only like a foot or two away from Izuku’s.

Eventually she decides she’ll be fine on her own and everything goes back to normal though.

Eri is just like, naturally good at convincing people to let her in their room? No one can resist an Eri Smileᵀᴹ

Her favorite rooms are Hanta’s, Momo’s and  Kyouka’s

On off days they all play Hide-n-Seek with Eri when they don’t feel like doing their homework.

It’s actually Koji that does the best job at hiding.

Kyouka is best seeker, even without using her quirk.

Satou sneaks cupcakes to Eri even when she’s put on a sweets ban by Izuku and Ochako.

Somehow they never catch him??

Mashirao lets her ride around on his tail.

She uses this technique a lot during hide-n-seek.

The girls do Disney Princess movie nights with her.

When they run out of those they show her animal movies.

When they run out of those Eri not so subtly leaves Kirishima’s Sentai show season box sets out… Oops.
