#i love mha

[princeizuku]

ya’ll will NEVER understand how much it genuinely frustrates and makes my heart break to see how some people are talking about my favourite anime and just don’t fucking understand it or its wonderful story.

My Hero Academia, they could never make me hate you.

OFFICIAL FUMIKAGE TOKOYAMI ART

AGHHH LOOK AT BABY TOKOYAMIIIIII!!

i am not well

[nivea-ah]

I had started mha out of boredom back when the pandemic had just started (it's been four years!) and soon grew to be obsessed with it, but due to the never-ending woes of growing older and weaker (I hate you exams), I stopped reading the manga a year or two ago.

I would still visit the mha tag on tumblr and read what other's had to say about it but never really continued reading or watching it. Many said the writing was horrible and the random was even worse. They said the plot was too stretched out and repetitive and it's genuinely a very bad manga. I didn't believe it but I didn't really have a base to fight back on (in my head of course because I have better things to do than fight online) because I stopped reading the manga. But, today, I can finally say that I have caught up with the manga AND IT'S THE BEST ENDING YOU CAN EVER EXPECT OUT OF A SERIES.

The final war was of the perfect length, not too short to just be a quarrel, not too long to be tedious. There were developments and setbacks that made it even more exciting. All plot points were tied up nice and tight so that no side story was left incomplete. Everything was done wonderfully.

What I liked even more was that even with the ending of the war, we still got a lot of chapters on the mundane life of class 2-A and saw how they were holding up. Everything's going smoothly (maybe) and Shinsou's joined their class! Yay! We even got a wonderful scene between Izuku and Ochako which I so dearly loved <3 While I don't ship them, they most certainly are cute together <33

Finally, I shall talk about said 'toxic fandom'. MHA for a VERY long time has been called a toxic fandom because 'ew you ppl ship deku with any guy he's straight >:(' Okay. If you think he's straight, good for you <3 I, personally, like to think of him as bi because that helps me sleep well at night and I quite like my 8 hours of sleep. Sure, there are people who are crazy but there are crazy people EVERYWHERE in EVERY FANDOM. JJK is a good example. But it still remains a wonderful piece of literature because it is!! So, I think people should really move on from this 'MHA is hated a lot so I should too' because the wonderful story and the just as wonderful ending proved that it is truly an amazing series that will live in my heart for years to come because it is the only manga that made me feel so much, cry so much and enjoy so much. And with that, thank you for reading <3

I still can’t get over the fact that Bakugo KNEW he KNEW that if Izuku tried out for the hero course at UA he would get accepted regardless of his quirk status. HE KNEW!!! that if Izuku tried out they would see how much of a hero he was even WITHOUT A QUIRK!!

He wasn’t shocked that Deku was trying out for UA. Bakugo EXPECTED IZUKU to ignore everything about society and his own threats and still chase after his dream of being a hero. Bakugo has ALWAYS seen Izuku as a hero - He’s always known that Izuku had everything it took even without a quirk. So much so - that when Izuku DID GET ACCEPTED BAKUGO WASNT EVEN SHOCKED!! He was angry yes but shocked?? surprised?? It’s more like he’s saying why couldn’t you have picked any other hero school than it is surprised that they thought he was good enough to be a hero. (do i think young 14 year old bakugo emotionally understood that or izuku for that matter? absolutely not)

His first real shocked expression was when Izuku threw the ball in their first class exercises - but before that he was literally constantly measuring himself up to Deku “What about Deku..?” when they were doing the sprints 😭

and listen i’m not one for the “boys are mean to the people they like” trope thing - it promote horrid things.

HOWEVER - in this universe where you are born with supernatural powers and those powers are interpersonally connected to you thus influencing your personality.. he has a literal explosion quirk and nitroglycerin courses through his veins constantly - i’m also under the assumption that part of Bakugo name meaning in Japan is literally explosion - PLUS PLUS - his mother who he looks IDENTICAL TOO behaves the SAME EXACT WAY.

Explosive personalities means explosive feelings and explosive feelings at any age is extremely difficult for the person and those around them (coming from experience here) to understand. its also a known psychology theory that anger is the most addictive emotion, and often referred to as a mask emotion. its easier to feel anger if its been an integral part of your life (as we’ve seen it has been for him) and anger can take over other emotions.

so for this - i fully feel like Kacchan has always felt for Deku in the way that deku has felt for him BUT bc of society/quirk status/inferiority like feelings - bullying.

He’s 16? now in the war arc and I truly think has one of the best growth arcs i’ve witnessed in my lifetime.

anyways i love his character and love you all for reading

So, in the MHA universe, did the universal sign of giving bunny ears to someone in a photo gradually change overtime to giving someone All Might's hair? I can imagine some of the older generations still remebering the action as bunny ears, but as years go by with All Might's influence increasing dramatically, I feel like the kids of the older generations would likely just assume that the adults are giving their friends All Might Hair. Especially if none of the adults actually say what they are doing lol

i always think of this moment, mirio really saved their asses by using his 😭

MHA leaks are coming out in a few minutes. Do I really care about the leaks or do I more so care about what MHA meant to me? It's the last chapter. The last time I'll be reading the manga chapter on Sunday. I know I didn't read the manga until like a year ago, but it still left a profound impact on me. This story of a quirkless boy who persisted amongst all else. A story about redemption, not letting your trauma define you. This silly little manga that fueled my passionate love of shipping. Deku, you will be missed. But your spirit will live on through me. You are my younger self. My inner child. Shouto, same with you. And Bakugo, you are someone I didn't understand. But understanding you helped me understand others and myself. These characters mean so much to me. Sure, there are the canon characters that Horikoshi created. And I love them. But my headcanons are who I identify with and who will live on in my head. And they are so precious to me. It's so cool that I get to have my own creations spurred by the creativity of another person halfway around the world who doesn't even speak the same language as me. That's fucking cool.

So, whatever happens tonight, I need not worry. I have my Deku, Shouto, and Bakugo in my head. I have a fic in the works with them. I know them and they know me. And they fuel me to be myself, to push myself to have the life I want. It's a silly little anime/manga, a silly little story. But stories are how I interpret the world. They let me interaction with others in another way. I find comraderie in the themes presented by the author, the mangaka. And that's cool.

The world is less lonely when you know someone else loves the same things as you. So, thank you, Hori, thank you fandom. I will cherish all the memories this manga created for me.

i have so many thoughts and ideas on humarise. like the dudes that bakugo fights mentions them being personally chosen by flect, which is such an interesting concept. were they chosen just because their quirks were useful or did he reach out to them because society failed them too? did he promise them acceptance and love or are they just simply selfish like bakugo says? flect’s characterization is a little weak to me, only because they don’t go deeper into it. i know it’s just a silly little movie but they have such good potential here

[novaneondream]

Anyways what kind of music do you think Eri listens to

[nejjirez]

finallyy updated my accc, fics should be up soon !

[mimikyuu-x]

i seriously don’t get the hate people give ochako. she’s a wonderfully written character, especially with her arc with toga. OMG TOGACHAKO I LOVE YOU pls i could do an analysis on this

[suguruverse]

your personal space has never really truly been yours since you’ve started dating him. his muscled arm around your waist when you wake up in the morning, has become as familiar as the sunrise itself. it used to be cute, his warmth a cozy start to the day. but now, it's suffocating, like he can't bear to let you go, even in his sleep.

you shift carefully under his weight, not wanting to disturb his sleep. his breath keeping its steady rhythm against your neck, and you wonder if he dreams of you as you lean in to kiss his forehead gently. he smiles in his sleep, a small, contented expression that almost makes you want to slip right back into his arms.

the sheets rustle softly as you slip out from his grip. you slowly tiptoe across your shared bedroom, craving the simple pleasure of being able to enjoy making coffee alone. the smell of freshly ground beans fills the kitchen, and you lean against the counter, enjoying the quiet morning.

but as your coffee brews, a twinge of guilt creeps in and you can almost imagine when he'll wake up and wonder where you've gone. despite enjoying the well needed alone time, you knew the longing to be close to him will pull you back into his embrace sooner than you'd planned. almost as if in complete sync with your thoughts, you hear a mumble approaching the kitchen, and then his voice, thick with sleep, calling out softly,

"angel cmon back to bed with me, you know i don’t like sleeping without you"

HAPPY BIRTHDAY IZUKU 💚🎂

[rirururu]

Why was this one shot lowkey the best animation I've ever seen from MHA? Bones, you did not have to animate each individual particle of Bakugou's blood for us 😭

[amitytaylor]

I think one of the most compelling themes of My Hero Academia is that anyone can be a villain.

Pain, trauma, life experiences, society, every single moment of your life adds up to who you are.

Endeavor is a hero to society but a villain to his family.

Dabi is a villain to society due to his dad being his villain, traumatic experiences and childhood.

Lady Negant is both a hero and a villain due to the government. Same argument can be made for Hawks.

Skinner is a villain to society because society was a villain to him.

I mean Togas entire arc is about how due to her quirk - an unchangeable personal part of herself - was shunned and bullied so badly at 4!! in middle school!! that she ran away and then to survive became a villain.

(I have so many thoughts about this but my brain is struggling finding the words)

No one is born a villain in MHA, much like in real life, there is very little documented proof that someone can be “born evil” i mean the nature vs nurture theory/debate is still heavily talked about today.

The way Horikoshi writes his characters to be hated and unlikable only to not actually be able to hate them because of what he reveals about them is truly amazing.

I mean fuck, Aoyama is a villain in his own right yet is also just as much of a hero and it wasn’t even his fault it was his parents who also can’t be (fully) blamed bc they were blackmailed.

The more i read this story the more i love this story in its entirety.

Post-war shenanigans. It's all the same to him
