#hashtag monster fr I love him

I think for all its constraints because of its format as a musical, something epic does really gorgeously is make odysseus just seem utterly ruthless. there's no time to sit around and describe his transformation or his planning or anything else - he just shows up and starts killing. doesn't blink. silent and deadly and cleans out the place in one song.

ONE, TEN AND TWENTY ONE OF BNHA I'm actually super interested to see what u think of this

ONE - the character everyone gets wrong - ohhh buddy. So like. A lot of them, but honestly it's kinda crazy cause he's the MC but I think a lot of ppl are just allergic to Deku's canon personality. Thinking about the sassy/snarky/bamf/whatever-the-fuck Midoriya Izuku tags like can we be so fr for a second. This is the guy who almost lost his internship due to being so chronically unfunny that his boss hated him (theres nuance but it's whatevs). Also the crazy Analyst Deku takes abt him like those super popular fics where he's this hyperintelligent teenager n all that like he's smart for sure and he's got an eye for quirks but that's just the autism talking, yknow? Also a lot of mischaracterization happens where Bakugou is involved bc ppl can't see it any other way than Deku being The Victim and Bakugou being The Monster. Like sorry they didn't expel Kacchan in season 1 like you wanted them to sorry you hate interesting dynamics and character growth and messy relationships. Like ⅓ of the top 20 fics on ao3 are BNHA and I wouldn't touch any of them w a ten foot poll

TEN - worst part of fanon - uhm well I think I did go over that pretty well but a different part is that a lot of Hawks/LOV takes annoy me. I was a Hawks joins the LOV truther but I didn't think it was bc it'd somehow be better for him it was cause I wanted them to make him 100 times worse!! I'd've loved to see my babygirl spiral in a desperate attempt for control and revenge and freedom and I wanted it to end horribly for him bc sometimes you just wanna see chars put through salad spinners. But the fanon thing is often them being his super supportive found family who all stop killing people bc it made him feel bad and then they lived happily ever after lol

TWENTY-ONE - part of canon you think is overhyped - dadzawa. In that it's barely canon at all HASHTAG DADMIGHT 5EVER but no it's something that's like great in its canon basis but gets exaggerated into something that well. I don't like as much! Bc I can relate to the protective teacher that loves his students intensely but keeps a professional boundary, I have a teacher just like that and we love her to pieces, but that mf is not a father to them 💀
