#he wouldn't use the stolen money to thank/comfort kirishima

[franeridart]

So I'm reading the bnha manga and I've reached where they're moving into the dorms and I'm so confused because did Bakugo just... mug Kaminari? So that he had money to make Kiri feel better? Or am I missing something? What happened behind the bush?

It was his own money! I mean, of course it was, it’s something he’s doing specifically to lift Kirishima’s mood, why would Kirishima be happy to see Kaminari being stolen from (and why would Bakugou steal even, it’s Bakugou we’re talking about, have more faith in his respect for the law anon haha) - somehow that scene has been confusing a lot of readers tho, enough that Horikoshi had to add a line in the volume version of the chapter in which Bakugou straight out says the money is his

I dunno what is it exactly that Bakugou did behind the bush to make Kaminari short circuit, but the point of it was to lift the general mood of the class making them laugh and (probably) to distract them from his giving the money to Kirishima to begin with, like, that was awkward enough without the whole class watching them lbr.

This probably makes more sense once you consider the fact that Bakugou feels responsible for the general (specifically Kirishima’s) low mood, actually. The money probably was also his very awkward way of saying thank you, so, again, why would he even use stolen money for it, that just makes no sense now does it

EDIT

Anon said:Hi! The reason Denki short circuited was because Bakugou interrogated him in order to find the total amount of money Kirishima spent on the surveillance camera.

That’s what most people seem to like to think, and if that’s how you wanna see it then go for it! But for one, it’s not canon since it hasn’t been stated anywhere that Bakugou got the info from Kaminari, I’m not even 100% sure the translation in which he mentions he got the info from someone was correct since only one version of the translation has that line in it. There’s also how there’s no logical reason why Kaminari should know about the goggles to begin with, he didn’t even know Kirishima and the rest had gone to rescue Bakugou till Aizawa mentioned it. And to me this also makes little to no sense because it implies that Bakugou knew about the goggles already, but waited till he could get his hands on Kaminari to find out about how much money was spent on them? To be completely honest to me it makes more sense if he either heard about it from Deku/anyone in the rescue team (since they knew both about the goggles and how much they cost) or if he saw them in Kirishima’s hand and looked it up for himself. It’s just a supposition, though

Anyway, yeah if you want to think of it that way go for it! ‘s not canon, tho

God this makes me so happy honestly!!! Jirou is a fave of mine and drawing her is always so much fun, it’s super nice to know I’m doing her right!!!

Anon said:Imagine Kirishima going to school with a fresh dye job and showering off after practice and the other boys freak cuz it looks like he’s all bloody

This is honest to god one of the thoughts that keep me up at night. Considering how black that boy’s hair is, the dye he uses HAS to be semi-permanent pigment, permanent dye just doesn’t turn out that brilliant - pigment is gonna turn the water red so fast and fade even faster so the boy must be using it to fix the color more or less any shower he takes, how the hell has no one noticed he’s dyed yet???

This is actually what brought me to consider the possibility of dye jobs being done by people why color-altering quirks, actually. I’ve been entertaining the idea of one of Kiri’s parents having that sort of quirk, can you imagine? I’m still not doing anything with it because I like the black roots, tho haha
