with the latest episodes of mha, can I just say I do not care for toga at all. yes, her backstory is tragic and her parents were awful but at some point she had to realize she was also part of the problem. people aren't scared of her because she likes blood, people fear her because she lacks boundaries and enjoys killing people.
imagine being izuku and having someone you met a total of three times(training camp, the provisional exam, and the shie hassaikai raid), and all three times included her attacking you, declare her love for you in the midst of a war. this complete stranger who has only tried to hurt you just drags you from your spot, ending in preventable deaths/injuries, to ask you to be her boyfriend. of course he thinks she's crazy. that is crazy.
i saw someone saying that toga was an example of queer romance, since her love isn't accepted by society. that's so stupid. i'm sorry. toga's idea of love is stabbing people, painting them in their own blood, obsessing over people who don't know her and when they rightfully freak out at her advances, she takes it as a personal attack against her.
maybe try not stabbing people and visit a blood bank

thank you! this is my biggest problem with dad for one. why would the same man who groomed and emotionally/physically/psychologically abused tomura his entire life secretly be a good father to someone else but also never be present? dfo is only appealing to me when writers stay true to his character and make him a shit dad.
Hard to get onboard with the DFO theory when it portrays AFO as someone who is a family man hiding his Villain identity.
This Man does not care who knows, unless it is part of some plan, like tricking Shigaraki's parents.
Also we've seen how AFO shows love with Yoichi. There's no way he would be any different with Inko.
Not that he want to he with her anyway.

since toga's form of love/expressing love is drinking blood, when she does it against people's wishes isn't that SA? is she really going around assaulting people and complaining that she's demonized because nobody likes how she shows love? do you realize how messed up that is? 'her parents abused her' 'she's traumatized' 'she's an allegory for queerness' she's forcing herself and her 'love' onto other people regardless of how they feel about it. regardless of if they want it or not.
if she were a male character, she'd be seen for what she truly is; a rapist.

i acknowledge that horikoshi ended mha. however, since it is a stupid ending and terrible to its characters and overall story, i have elected to ignore it

the fact that it was izuku of all people to say that to dabi. if anybody would understand having an abuser in the spotlight who is 'changing for the better' and having everything they've done in the past overlooked because of that, it's izuku but the narrative always forgets he is also an abuse victim
Finally talking about Dabi
So time and time again I've expressed how Dabi is my favorite of the villains and how much I hate how the narrative completely screwed him over. So now I'm going to talk about him. Spoilers under Read More.
So let's start at the beginning. His real name is Touya Todoroki, the oldest of the Todoroki siblings. When his quirk came in he got excited and wanted to make his dad proud, but soon it all went downhill.
He wasn't born to be resistant to his own flames, and thus giving him burns. Endeavor stops training him as he keep telling him to give up, but Touya refuses.
As the years went on the resentment for his father telling him to quit grew, until he reached his breaking point. Ending with his quirk going haywire and assumed to have been killed.
... Only for it to be revealed that he was Dabi the whole time.
That's pretty much the gist of Dabi's past and it could've been a compelling and complex story. Yeah what Dabi does isn't right or okay, but you can understand what led him to taking this road of becoming a villain.
Now, any good writer would use this to their advantage to write a really good plot from here. Such as having it revealed that Deep down Dabi still cared about his family and part of why he wanted to expose Endeavor was to help his family out of that toxic environment, even if he can't be with them.
Endeavor would be forced to face consequences and his family realizing that this reveal was a blessing in disguise... that they can finally be a happy family without the abuser to keep them on leashes.
...
But then you remember that the author is Hori, a guy known for propping up his worst characters and handling these kind of plots poorly.
What he did instead, was have his own main character tell Dabi that Endeavor has been changing and that makes everything he has done in the past more forgivable! And the whole thing about him revealing this information is framed as he should've kept his mouth shut as poor widdle Endeavor is receiving for it by the public.
So this is LITERALLY saying that abuse victims should keep their struggles quiet since the abuser is "Changing" and to just let the past be the past!
HOLY FUCKING SHIT HORIKOSHI!! WHAT IN THE EVER LIVING FUCK ARE YOU TRYING TO SAY HERE!?
It angers me that THIS was how Hori decided to write this part of the story! To write Dabi off as a non caring insane psychopath who only wants destruction when the building blocks to make this a much more compelling story about a family escaping their abuser was right there!
Dabi! My man! You deserve much better than this!

thereās a lot of reasons i dislike all might, but there is one moment in particular that really seals it.Ā
i canāt remember the exact episode, but itās after kamino on the beach. izuku is so happy to see him after his big fight and all might just hits him. not a gentle shoulder punch or arm smack like usual teasing. all might full-force sucker punches a sixteen-year-old child. thatās not funny or cute.Ā
you donāt hit kids even when they do stupid shit. thatās what kids are meant to do and adults are meant to guide them. and then izuku flinches from him after the hit and all might doesnāt even notice(and if he did, he certainly didnāt do anything about it)
but itās not like that was the first time all might hit izuku. at least with the final exams you could argue he was just doing his job(he still went way too hard on them. heās the number one hero and izuku and bakugou were just kids trying their best. he seriously injured them both). all might had no excuse for hitting izuku on the beach.

There's this scene in season five after Izuku finally masters blackwhip and is talking about his future quirks with All Might and Bakugo(for some reason). I hate this scene so much. It is played as a cute bkdk moment or showing bk's character growth but all bk does is belittle Izuku for mastering a quirk in under a year, gaining a second quirk out of nowhere, and getting that one under control too. How long did it take bk to master his quirk or did he just pop out of the womb knowing everything there is to know about it? Izuku just got these quirks and already has such a good handle on them. And when All Might tells Izuku to try and unlock float next, bk starts belittling him again saying that flight is something he's already mastered. again, izuku has had this quirk for less then a year yet has mastered two seperate quirks and is about to be forced to learn a whole new one. does bk think that if he had ofa he'd unlock every quirk at once and never have any issues? the quirk itself chose izuku and says he will complete ofa and be the best user. not bakugo. he could never do what izuku does

wow, I am not acknowledging these 'canon' stats at all. i knew they were going to be stupid, but I didn't think it'd be that bad.
dabi and izuku are both prodigies in their own right. both being able to mimic/copy moves they've only seen before with little to no effort. izuku's created, adapted, and changed his entire fighting style multiple times despite zero training(all might and gran never actually trained him which is insane.) these two are completely self-taught. that alone should bump their stats. not to mention the sheer intelligence factor. it might not be book smarts, but the way they think and improvise in the middle of intense fights is impressive.
personally, i think dabi should outrank shouto in technique and intelligence stats. nothing against shouto, dabi has just proved to be better. and izuku deserves better stats overall. even without ofa, he should rank higher than most. he is literally peak human fitness. he can deadlift all might on his shoulders quirkless! you're telling me he has less power than the invisible girl who can't do a single pull-up?
MHA and Horiās Stat Rankings
Ok, so if thereās any post of mine that someone can call nitpicky, itāll be this one cause what Iām about to talk about doesnāt really affect the story of MHA in any meaningful way. Rather, itās just going over some supplemental information that really makes no sense.
So hardcore MHA fans and/or frequent visitors of the MHA wiki know of the Ultra Archive Book and the Ultra Analysis Book. In these books, various characters are given rankings based on several stats: power, speed, technique, and intelligence/wits being the stats shared between the two books. Cooperation, the final stat in the Archive Book, was replaced in the Analysis Book by each character having a humorous stat that tells the reader a bit about them. Denkiās signature stat is Friend (6/6 S), Izukuās is Presence (1/6 E), etc. In addition, the Analysis Book is slightly more in depth when ranking stats. Each letter has their own tiers, either being positive, neutral, or negative. For example, Izuku has a power score of 5/6 A+ while Ejiro has a power score of 5/6 A- and Mezou has flat score of 5/6 A.
The way the stats are written are easy to understand. However, when you compare the stats of some characters to one another and what weāre actually shown them being capable of doing, a lot of it doesnāt add up. Hereās Iāll be breaking down some examples of what I mean.
Power:
Perhaps the biggest examples of this area being bullshit are Shota, Hitoshi, Stain, and Tooruās strength rankings. Throughout both books, all four characters have had a consistent power ranking, with only Stainās really changing from a 3/6 C to a 4/5 B and Hitoshi changing from a 1/6 E to a 2/6 D. Meanwhile, Tooru has a power ranking of 2/6 D and Shotaās is 3/5 C. However, keep in mind that neither character has any sort of offensive abilities granted to them by their quirks. Stainās is a paralysis quirk, Tooruās makes her invisible, Hitoshi brainwashes people, and Shotaās shuts down quirks. You can make an argument for Tooru being able to refract/reflect light based quirks, but thatās something she learned later on, so keep that in mind. Meanwhile, Izuku in the Ultra Archive Book, has a power stat of 1/6 E. Now, it is basing his strength off the fact that heās unable to properly use OFA without breaking himself, but there is absolutely no way he should be weaker than Shota, Stain, and Tooru in the power department. Izuku is peak human strength. You can definitely say that both Shota and Stain are as well, but Tooru isnāt, struggling to do a pull-up. Despite that, sheās a tier higher than him. Speaking of Stain and Shota, you can argue that their weapons are also accounted for, but that makes no sense in Shotaās case cause his capture scarf can be cut by a knife. As for Stain, his blades havenāt been shown to have any special properties, so how the hell do his blades alone allow him to beat Minaās 3/6 C+ power. Minaās acid melts through stone and steel with ease. Stainās swords have nothing on that. Speaking of Mina, her power statās somehow lower than Mashiraoās. Sure Mashiraoās pretty strong, but its best feat is cracking concrete while Minaās disintegrated steel with no effort. Himiko Toga also gets screwed over in terms of a power stat, being a 1/6 E in both books. Despite not having an offensive quirk at the time of her ranking, she has shown off superior strength than Tooru and Hitoshi by pining Izuku. Sure, a successful pin does involve technique, but a twig isnāt going to be able to pin a peak level human without some sort of strength. Another character whoās rated lower than they should be is Tsuyu in the Ultra Archive Book, also being a 1/6 E despite her quirk granting her enchanted strength. This was rectified in the Ultra Analysis Book with her getting bumped up to a 3/6 C, but thereās still no way Shota, a man with no superhuman abilities, should have an equal power ranking to Tsuyu, who could probably shatter a skull with a kick. Finally, thereās Dabi, whoās always thrown in the 4/6 B category. While he might not be able to shoot out much fire, the fact that his flames are confirmed to be hotter than Endeavorās means he deserves to be bumped higher. Thereās no way youāre telling me Katsukiās explosions are stronger than Dabiās flames. I can also ramble about how Kyoukaās quirk is arguably one of the strongest quirks in the series but thatās for another time. To conclude, the power rankings are wonky. Peak human characters are either ranked lower than characters they should realistically beat in terms of power or are ranked higher than they should be, and characters who should be ranked higher like Mina and Dabi arenāt.
Speed:
Arguably the most consistent stat in this series is speed. Thereās really only one example I wanna talk about and thatās Mezou. Mezou has a low speed ranking of 2/6 D in both books despite having some of the best performances when it comes to raw speed. He was able to save several of his classmates at the USJ before Kurogiri could warp them all away, he easily backhanded Himiko (someone who both Shota and Izuku struggled to keep up with even when the latter was using 5% of OFA), he ran away from a full powered Dark Shadow, and he successfully countered a full barrage of Ponyās horn missiles with only his fists. Despite this, his speed stat is lower than everyone else Iāve mentioned.
Technique:
Easily the most flawed stat here. For starters, Hitoshi in the Ultra Archive Book has an equal technique stat to Izuku, the guy who is able to counter people by reading their body moments, and Shoto who has been trained by the number two hero. Mind you, all weāve seen Hitoshi do is mind control people and flail pathetically against Izuku during the Sports Festival. Katsuki, who has a 5/6 A and 5/6 A+ stat in technique, has not received any form of training and has only fought people weaker than him prior to U.A, so he also shouldnāt have a higher skill stat than the son of the number 2 pro hero. Dabi, the guy who managed to mimic the special move Shoto had to take time to learn and has the ability to mimic all of Endeavorās moves, only has a technique stat of 2/6 D. Mezou and Jurota, the characters Hori said were the strongest characters of the first years when it came to fighting without quirks, both possess lower technique stats than Katsuki. Yui Kodai, the girl with 5/6 A+ technique, somehow got easily defeated by Ochako, who is a tier lower than her in technique. Yes, she got a surprise attack on Reiko, but Yui shouldāve been able to jump her after Reiko went down. Mashirao and Itsuka are both martial artists but they both only have technique stats in the B ranks, which is lower than most of their classmates. Pretty much Horiās rankings when it comes to technique is either constantly ignored and/or makes absolutely no sense.
Intelligence/wits:
For this section, I wanna focus on Minoru. Minoruās intelligence stat is currently ranked at 5/6 A+. Now, Iām not saying Minoruās not smart, because weāve seen that he is smart, but his intelligence statās a bit too high. For starters, Kyouka scored higher than him on the midterms despite only having a maximum intelligence score of 4/5 B. In addition, heās ranked above Tenya, who had the second highest score on the midterms. Heās also tied with Mei, someone who Power Loader described as a āone of a kind geniusā. Now, some of you might be saying that Minoru might be better at working on his feet, hence his higher intelligence stat, but Izukuās able to accurately read an entire battlefield and scored fourth on the midterms, blowing Minoru out of the water in these instances. Moving away from Minoru, Power Loader, despite being the head of the Support department, the Ultra Analysis book only has his intellect at a 2/6 D. Thatās lower than the majority of 1-A and 1-Bās intelligence stats. How is the head of the support department going to have such a poor intelligence rating? Dabi, who once again is a prodigy who was the only one who had suspicions about Hawksā loyalty and is capable of instantly mimicking moves that Shoto and Endeavor had to take time to develop, only has an intellect of 3/6 C, which is crazy to me. Hori really has no idea what heās doing with regards to these stats.
TL;DR: Horiās stat assignments are bullshit and need to be drastically reworked.

I think itās kinda messed up that characters(including the teachers) joke about Midoriyaās bone breaking tendencies. Itās treated like something funny and not at all like a fifteen year old child injures himself so frequently that he has NERVE DAMAGE and probably chronic pain. This is more common in fanfic than canon, but still. He is in extreme pain, no doubt, every time he breaks himself using a quirk he canāt control. Why is that funny? He could lose the use of his limbs and itās a joke??Ā
And why donāt the teachers help? People criticize All Might for being a bad teacher(which he is) but what about Aizawa? I love Aizawa but he looks at this child tearing himself apart and doesnāt help. Why? He trains Shinsou in secret so why canāt he take the time to pull Midoriya to the side for training? Why is it up to the kid to teach himself, because thatās what happened? Every move and improvement made with One For All was made by Midoriya himself.
Same goes for Kaminari. The boy goes BRAINDEAD and no one finds that concerning? Everyone laughs at hisĀ āwheyā mode but imagine how he feels. Heās vulnerable like that with no control over his body and all his classmates, his friends, find it hilarious. Theyāll trigger it on purpose when the mood is down. Thatās so fucked.Ā
I imagine both Kaminari and Midoriya smile and laugh alongside the jokes, but they must hurt inside, trying not to cry. They canāt control it, itās actively hurting them. Why is it funny? They ask themselves. Why are you laughing? Why wonāt you help me?

I think what I hate most about dabihawks is how many people just think itās canon or universally liked. I canāt even begin to count how many times Iāve been reading a fic and just stumbled across it. A lot of the time it is untagged, too! That defeats the whole purpose of tags and why we have them. I have every version of the ship name blocked on every platform and yet it is still there. Just because something is popular doesnāt mean everyone ships it. I didnāt even hate the ship at first, I just didnāt get why itās so popular. Now, I absolutely hate it.

agree with all of these except inkoās part. maybe itās my lowkey(highkey) mommy issues or something else, but she is not a good parent when you lay it out and look at it.Ā
but seriously, none of these tropes make sense
all might being a bigot? i think heās just a little dumb and didnāt word his thoughts right. happens. he doesnāt know what heās doing as a teacher/mentor but heās trying.
aizawa is very clearly not a great teacher. i understand the love for him in a self-insert kinda way. they want the grump with a heart of gold to be their favesā dad. heās kinda like snape for me, should not be a teacher or as popular as he is.
neito is one of the fruitiest characters ever created(outside of aoyama) and minete has shown no signs of homophobia. heās a perv, but heās not outright malicious either.
katsuki bullying izuku because he cares gets on my nerves so bad. as if that justifies anything. he still tortured his so calledĀ āfriendā for years
mitsuki and masaru were not abusive. i donāt doubt that katsuki was never punished by teachers for hurting izuku, but placing all the blame on society and not katsuki is a cop out. he knew it was wrong but he did it anyway, thatās on him.
tenya legit tried to kill a man and then snuck out to rescue bakugou in kamino. he is not some rule following nerd
hitoshi showed no signs of working hard for his place. he coasted through the sports festival using his quirk and not even attempting to try without it, manipulating his teammates as if that would help people view him as a reliable hero. and then he yells at izuku for having aĀ āperfectā quirk, one that hadnāt been used all day and when it was, shattered his bones. i really hate how hitoshi is portrayed as fearing his quirk and being seen as a villain when canon shows otherwise.
again, hitoshi shows no sign of trauma over using his quirk. i like the foster kid trope for him, b/c not everyone has parents, but it doesnāt need to be abusive.
idk much about rikido, but iām pretty sure if anyone is homophobic, itās katsuki with some good old internalised-homophobia.
katsuki is in no way a good friend. not even to his own friend group, nevermind the person he abused for a decade
i donāt doubt that some people are quirkist. katsuki comes to mind and maybe hitoshi but like, in the opposite way. but neito? he is probably the last person to be quirkist
ochaco has proved herself to be a good friend and hero. wanting money is what started her on the path, sure, but sheās grown since then. also, the money was for her parents, not her
i think katsuki is arrogant and only in ua cause of his quirk, but all of them?
Could you make a list of popular fanon tropes and myths in MHA fan fiction that has no basis in reality or the opposite of fanon depictions. Dadzawa, All Might bashing, everything related to abusive Inko, LoV as family, Shinso replaces Mineta, etc? Just trying to list out certain things I don't really like unless it's crack or pretty good fic. Please ignore anything related to shipping and Omegaverse stuff as those tend to exaggerate already known stuff and sex scenes.
Ignoring ships and AUs, these are tropes that you can tell people believe are canon when they write their fanfics. Iāll elaborate more on them in the future but for now Iāll just leave a list:
All Might is a quirkist bigot
Inko is an abusive parent/helicopter parent
Dadzawa/Shota being the best teacher
Homophobic Neito and Minoru
Katsuki secretly cared about Izuku and only bullied him to protect him/is a good person deep down
Katsuki is a victim of society/was abused by his parents
Tenya is only a stickler for the rules and nothing else
Hitoshi worked hard to achieve his dream and deserves to be a hero more than anyone in 1-A (excluding Katsuki and maybe Minoru)
Hitoshi had the worst childhood growing up (the muzzle thing a lot of fanfics love to do, him being abused by his parents, etc.)
Homophobic Rikito (yes thatās a thing. BakuStans and BakuDeku Stans pgot angry when Rikito rightfully responds to Katsukiās behavior with āI thought you were trying to be betterā)
Katsuki is a better friend than Ochako, Shoto, Tenya, Tsuyu, or literally anyone else (reminder that itās confirmed by Hori himself that Ochako was his first true friend)
Quirkist anyone really. Some people think Neito and Ochako would be quirkist which is dumb
Gold digger/greedy Ochako
1-A are arrogant/lazy and are only in the hero course due to their quirks

Todoroki is probably the worst person for Bakugo to fight(aside from Deku). His flames would cause the nitroglycerin to explode while still on his body, harming him. Ice? Well, it is a lot harder to sweat when youāre freezing, making Bakugoās explosions weaker. In no way should Bakugo have won against Todoroki in the Sportās Festival. Shoutoās a perfect counter, but they love making Blasty OP with all the plot armor. He doesnāt even have to work hard to win, he just does even when he really shouldnāt.
Like his fight at ground beta. Deku shouldāve absolutely kicked Bakugoās ass. I honestly think he just let him win to help him sort out his emotions. That would be incredibly in character for Midoriya to do for someone.
But seriously, Bakugo should not win every single fight heās in. Heās not perfect, despite what he likes to think, and he needs to lose. Seriously, he is in no way more powerful than Todoroki or Midoriya.

Inko just rubs me the wrong way. I mean she only supported Izuku's dreams after he got a quirk and somehow never noticed him coming home with bruises or singed clothing. One scene show him like 5 or 6 all banged up, that would be impossible to hide from a parent especially at that age. She had to have known or at least suspected yet he is still in the same apartment, city, and school. That doesn't scream good parent.

does anyone else hate when b@kugou is made the number one hero when Izuku is right there?? Or, in fics where Izu is underground or not a hero at all, Todoroki is right there. Or Mirio. Or HAWKS!! Those three are infinitely stronger than blasty and kinder too. I would not want to be saved by someone whoās just going to yell at and berate me after I just went through a traumatic experience. I donāt even think heād be in the top TEN. he sucks
