#if bkdk isnt canon its not the end of the world

[marimeeko]

Adding my own here: Take it from a long time shipper, your ship doesn't have to be canon for you to enjoy it. But hatred sent Horikoshis way because he wrote an ending you didn't like, is never ok.

I say this as a heavy Bakudeku shipper and a togachako shipper; I do not mind if izuocha is the chosen ending. I may have my own opinion about its execution, but that is MINE and my responsibility to be respectful to Horikoshi.

Critique is one thing but outright flaming him isn't ok.

As we go into the last TWO chapters (holy shit that's surreal) please please keep your ship close but not so close that you lash out if it is not confirmed.

It's a manga, we are meant to be having fun here.

Regarding the new my hero academia chapter I know we are worried about the way the chapter ended with ochako and midoryiya I need everyone to take a deep breath and to please not jump to conclusions I understand if you have mixed feelings about the chapter it is normal to be worried about the possibility of your ship not becoming canon. I personally am not worried if you need to take a break from the manga do that no one will judge you for it. We honestly need to lower our expectations in case canon does not go the way you want it to. Remember no matter what happens we still have a lot of good canon bakudeku moments in the manga we have our fics and our fanart. No matter what happens we'll be okay. I have been in a lot of fandoms over the years when a ship of mine didn't became canon did I stop shipping them? No I still love them and will continue to do so no matter which way canon goes.

Bkdk tododeku bktodo kirideku krbk kiritodo

this is a lot :o

heres tododeku, and bktodo

when i started shipping: 

bkdk - since s1, especially after their fight at ground beta! definitely after kacchan v deku 2! 

kirideku - hmm this isnt one i shipped while watching/reading bnha, but found out about the rarepair online maybe a couple months ago?

krbk - i thought they were cute as a brotp in s1, but i saw people online shipping them alot (before i read the manga). i liked em, and really liked their friendship in s2! the kiribaku in my heart LAUNCHED after i read the rescue arc though!

kiritodo - idk much about em? i normally ship them in poly ships like kiribakutodo! i wont include them in the rest bc i actually am not too sure about them

my thoughts:

bkdk - controversial ship but i like them! they have so many complicated feelings about each other in canon and theyre true rivals. they mirror + parallel each other pretty well, and grow with each other!

kirideku - theyre cute! i dont actually remember many of their interactions but i theyre both SUNSHINES who deserve the world and more!!

krbk - UGH WE LOVE CANON KINGS! hori puts so many implications about them.. im shaking. their relationship is the most amazing thing in the entire show 

ill put the rest under a read more since its so long

what makes me happy:  

bkdk - their healing relationship! they started really horribly, but as they grow older, they mature and learn to accept each other!

kirideku - all their cute interactions and fanon! theyre uber fluffy and sweet

krbk - a long list.. them saving each other so many times… kiri literally saved bakugou’s LIFE twice (rescue arc, bnha movie) and he didnt hesitate to do so! BAKUGOUS WORDS being what motivates kirishima, and helps him survive and win a mission? BAKUGOU REASSURING KIRI THAT HES A GOOD HERO? them fighting together in the USJ attack? just all their interactions aare so good??? the way they unconditionally and so obviously love + care about each other!

what makes me sad:

bkdk - how controversial the ship is.. i agree they make not have the healthiest relationship since they have so many complicated feelings, but their relationship is mending and maturing!

krdk and krbk - n/a

things done in fanfic that annoys me:

bkdk - anything with toxicity or unhealthy relationships.. bakugou being too mean or arrogant, deku being a doormat

kirideku - i dont read kirideku owo

krbk - their characterization is generally really good but when they treat bakugou as horrible mean character that kirishima has to “fix” 😷

things i look for in a fanfic:

bkdk - future fics! them being top heroes together, after they mature and get over their feelings. hurt/comfort is huge with them, and anything to do with them and how they know each other so well since childhood.

kirideku - n/a

krbk - honestly i read basically all kiribaku!! i love canon compliant ones, and hurt/comfort + trauma after the rescue arc! them building each other up, being an unexpected but totally obvious ship to the rest of 1A!

who i’d be comfortable then ending up with, if not each other: kiribaku is my otp of all otps, but here are my other ship for em all

deku - tododeku, dekuiida, izuocha, shindeku, alot of people tbh

kirishima - kirikami, kirisero, kirimina, kiritetsu

bakugou - todobaku, bakukami, bakusero, bakumina, bakucamie, and like every bakugou ship

my happily ever after for them:

bkdk - being the #1 pro heroes together, power couple of the century

kirideku - uh no idea?? i see them being really popular with kids! theyd be good teachers at UA together

krbk - heroes together, they open a hero agency together, they adopt kids and are super domestic. they never lose their spark and theyre always the ultimate partnership.

big spoon / little spoon:

bkdk - little spoon deku big spoon baku

kirideku - little spoon deku big spoon kiri

krbk - switch! but mainly little spoon baku n big spoon kiri

favourite non-sexual activity:

bkdk - theyve known each other so long, they love slow casual domestic stuff. cute things they missed in their childhood + while being teens because they were too busy having a rivalry and stuff

kirideku - no idea

krbk - ughhhhh they love doing everything together :( but they like hiking together and studying together (kiri doesnt like studying though, he just likes spending time with bakugou)
