The Problem with the League of Villains
this is just me ranting after reading many people say that the lov deserved a better ending (i agree with them don't worry). most of that stuff has already been said but i'm bored and need something to write
so why is everyone disappointed?
by definition, an antagonist is someone that goes against the main character(s) and a villain is someone who does immoral and/or illegal things (wow, shocking)
so by definition, the league of villains is aptly named. shigaraki and dabi are mass murderers, toga is a killer too, and even if the others are 'less dangerous' they're all guilty of terorism and kidnapping a teenager.
not nice, right? then why would anyone would want them to have a good ending?
long story short: horikoshi made the league too sympathetic and relatable
when horikoshi has decided to make them funny, he's decided to make them likeable. that's not enough though. you can find a fictional villain funny and not root for them (for some reason the examples that comes to my mind are the disney villains. captain hook is hilarious but no one wants him to win)
the cause of everyone's disappointment is the relatable part. everyone in the league has gone through stuff viewers can relate. touya, shigaraki and toga have been abused; twice has mental health issues (and stuggling to get a job is relatable too lmao); spinner has been discriminated against... you get the idea
and even without knowing their backstory, most of the league's fights can be considered noble: they want to change society and make the world a better place. to take a more precise example, the league kidnapped bakugou because they thought he had gone through similar struggle as them
(this is mr compress talking in chapter 85) as far as i've seen, most of the fandom either think bakugou being chained and muzzled at the end of the sport festival was just comic relief or agree that it was fucked up
so yeah, you can't put a group of people rejected by society, who just want a better world and expect people to not like them
and that's why their ending is disappointing (the rest contains heavy spoilers of the last few chapters of mha)
they're all either in jail or six feet underground. we rationally could understand it, they're all criminals/villains so of course they wouldn't get a happy ending and face consequences for their actions. the only one who could have gotten away with it is shigaraki because of all the grooming/brainwashing he's gone through and maybe toga because she's a child
but if you relate to a character, you want them to get a happy ending. of course fans would want dabi to be at peace, but instead he's forced to spend his last moments being stared at by his abuser). of course fans would want shigaraki to be free from afo (but instead his only freedom was death). of course fans would want toga to be understood and cared for (but she never had that opportunity)
that's not very 'save to win' out of you horikoshi
maybe it's just a shortcut made by the fandom, but the league are seen more as victims of abuse than actual criminals. i mean, what's more important in dabi's story? the fact that he burned himself alive after overworking himself to get his abusive father's attention, or the fact that he's burned people alive? probably both, but there's more focus on the first element.
and obviously we would want abuse victims to get a happy ending
basically, their ending isn't coherent with what we've seen of them, and that's why people are disappointed
btw, the same logic applies to stain. some fans agree with stain's reasoning bc he's fighting against corruption. of course, his logic is stupid and he's delusional but he's introduced not long after we've discovered shouto's past. you can't say "one of the most popular heroes is abusing + all he wants is to get n°1 to satisfy his own ego" and then follow with "see that guy fighting against corruption? he's bad, don't do that"
the clever way to make sure no one would agree with stain would have been to make the heroes fight against injustice with good methods. i live for the fanfics in which izuku takes down the hpsc
okay i'm done ranting thanks for reading

The multilingual Green Lanterns (Jessica, Kyle, Simon) like to play a game of letting their rings translate their speech and seeing how long it takes other people to realize they’re not actually talking in English
In the Justice League, Batman and Martian Manhunter are usually the first to notice, the former because he can read lips and the latter because he can telepathically sense the mischief.
Superman and Wonder Woman, both polyglots themselves, have also picked up on the GLs’ little game on several occasions.
Flash might be catching on, he’s fast enough to catch the ever so slight delay between when the GLs start talking and the ring kicks in.
Captain Marvel is so far completely oblivious. The wisdom of Solomon may grant fluency in all languages, but apparently it only kicks in when Billy is aware that someone is not speaking English.
Zatanna knows, but that’s because she was the accidental inspiration for the game (she once hexed Guy to only be able to speak in French, but his ring made it seem like the spell failed).

French TV journalist having a hard time trying to get woman in the street to comment on Macron's latest speech yesterday
Protesters organised casserolades (aka banging on pots and pans) in front of city halls across the country at 8pm, when Macron was speaking, to symbolically drown out his voice. Later that evening, Macron was filmed singing a song with some 'random people' in a street in Paris, trying to show he can go out and meet people and have fun because protesters don't exist. The people he was singing with (members of a choir, some of whom are 'alt-right-leaning') were using a folk song app created by far-right activists that was criticised a few months ago for hosting a Spanish fascist anthem & Third Reich military marches.
The government's response was that the President "couldn't know the background of the people he met that night." Maybe if he wants to avoid being associated with the far-right (that's a big if, I know), Macron should keep in mind that with the kinds of strategies and positioning his government has adopted lately, people in the street who welcome him with open arms and are proud to be filmed with him have a higher than average likelihood of supporting fascism.
#genre hier darmanin qui dit qu'il faut sanctionner les gens au RSA et aujourd'hui le maire pour qui fraudeur = maghrébin...#also the far-right ppl who made that song lyric app got 40K€ of public funding from the ministry of culture#our government is 'questioning' public funding for the human rights league but not this#so yeah this is just 1 thing out of the avalanche of bullshit the government keeps unleashing these days#i could have made a post about the minister of the interior; a known rapist; saying#that french people are angry about the reform but ''they swallowed it''#that was yesterday; this week is going well so far#cool thing that happened last week is that the film director who won the césar des lycéens award#made a speech in the presence of the minister of education in which he said#''it must be hard to be minister of education for a president whose words and actions reflect the opposite#of the values school is supposed to teach the youth: contempt rather than respect; dictating rather than dialoguing'' (etc)#also last week when macron went to notre-dame and of course forbade protests in the area#so protesters hopped on a boat and protested on the seine next to notre-dame#frpol

This has to be a Les Miserables reference which is so interesting from an analysis standpoint. Like implying the side of jinx is the righteous revolution doomed to fail is sooooooooo interesting
#arcane#arcane season 2#jinx arcane#jinx#jinx league of legends#les mis#les miserables#anyway im watching arcane rn but thats all ive been able to think about everytime ive seen this opening#also not only is this incredibly iconic imagery this is a FRENCH SHOW#i cant imagine this is an accident#it also makes sense since both properties are so deeply about class

while i'm posting about how so much of fanon misunderstands frank's character - misogyny is a trip because frank was the insecure, whiny, rich, improbably talented, adorably clumsy mary sue people thought piper was
#not tagging because i don't want discourse lol#but likeeeee people coming for piper for her colorful eyes or being able to speak french#meanwhile frank sitting in the back with his assortment of powers from his many powerful bloodlines and his out-of-his-league girlfriend#and title that got handed to him#but he's not a hot girl so he gets the fandom pass#anyway. i wish they'd hung out more in canon

This ESPN interviewer makes me very happy because so far in all the interviews I’ve seen her do she takes the time to say her final thank you to the player in their native language. The surprised little smile she gets from them is so Good.
#trill watches hockey#I've seen her do French and Swedish so far#Like the fucking xenophobic norms around the league of guys who can't even bother to learn how to pronounce a guy's name even halfway right#Her actively showing that respect to put in just a little effort is like#A+ leagues ahead the rest#Emily Kaplan#Finally caught her name nice
