#mineta bashing

[a-little-lost-in-my-own-head]

Evil Mineta be like: tall, gorgeous, long luscious hair and a crapton of respect for women, ace, his quirk is little cubes that repel stuff, the knight of protecting women from creeps.

Give me Majoru Yaseta.

[celesteleoves]

theres one scenario i CANNOT get enough of and its everyones first time meeting the boys (baku, kiri, izuku, sero, denki etcc) gfs AHHH 🤭🤭🤭

“YOU HAVE A GIRLFRIEND?!”

ೃ࿐ mha boys! x fem!reader

summary: what the request said!

warnings: mentions of aggressiveness (cough cough, katsuki)

a/n: YESYEYES!! i love this idea sm and in honour of me reaching 200 followers I thought this would be the best scenario to write abt!!

—

BAKUGOU KATSUKI ೃ࿐

obviously, it was quite shocking finding out mean, gruff, and bulky katsuki bakugou had a girlfriend who seemed to get along with everyone! unlike a certain blonde, aggressive boy-here—

there were different reactions… izuku was quite shook when he met you, even expressing it.

“HOW ARE YOU DATING KACCHA-” cut off by katsukis explosions and your calming voice sent the crowd on a riot. when you spoke, katsuki listened.

matter of fact, he wouldn’t turn his attention to anything else besides you.

there were taunts from his classmates (cough cough the bakusquad) but it was all in good spirit of course!

it’s time someone tamed that beast!

ೃ࿐ IZUKU MIDORIYA

contrast to katsuki, many were not that shocked that he had a girlfriend as izuku was very charming and intelligent even if he didn’t think so himself.

others simply nodded their heads when you walked in, understanding how well you and izuku worked together.

a few comments spurred out like, “DOES HE RAMBLE WITH YOU TOO?”, “so, is he really all mights secret love child?” and to which you responded happily and cheerful while your bashful boyfriend sat beside you.

you guys are quite cute, the class approves.

KIRISHIMA EIJIROU ೃ࿐

with eijirou’s manliness, again, many were not that shocked that he had managed to charm his way into your sweet selfs life.

just like bakugou, he received lots of teasing from his class mates. mina really exposed him though.

“hey– PSST, Y/N! did you know kirishima used to have black hair!” followed by kirishimas nervous fumbling and red cheeks, “ashido! 🫣”

you seemed strong, holding your head high the exact same way kirishima does. and so, class 1.A thinks you guys are a perfect match for each other.

ೃ࿐ SHOTO TODOROKI

when he introduced you to his class, everyone went silent. you were the sweetest bundle of joy and were a slight contrast to shotos personality himself.

one thing everyone noticed though, was when you talked. shotos lips would turn slightly upward and his cheeks would coat a light pink as you held eye contact with him and spoke fondly to him and his classmates.

yep, he was infatuated with you, he won’t even deny it either. but, shoto deserves happiness and some serenity in his life.

so, there wasn’t as much teasing! instead, everyone grew fond of you and shotos relationship. they approve!

DENKI KAMINARI ೃ࿐

“YOU HAVE A GIRLFRIEND?!” are the first words that come out of everyone’s mouths, jirou was genuinely shocked that he, who was almost ranked with mineta in weirdness, could get a girlfriend.

yet again, he had his ways of charming the lady’s and he managed to charm a very beautiful and kind lady! he’s lucky.

for him, EVERYBODY taunts him. bakugou literally COMES for his neck (no, like, literally)

“YOUR DUMBASS HAS A GIRLFRIEND? YOU?!” katsuki says that while he shakes denki around by the neck, which brings the girls to the topic of the drawbacks of his quirk.

“have you seen him after he uses his quirk?” jirou chuckles.

“ITS HILARIOUS!” mina adds in, cackling and slapping denki on the knee who is now, blushing and trying to defend himself.

“ILL ZAP YOU AND THEN YOULL SEE HOW IT FEELS–” you simply laugh, making him go quiet and turn to you.

he watches with admiration as you grin, smiling at everyone around you.

the girls mainly catch this moment of calmness from the electricity quirk boy, giggling and observing.

he needs some consoling and reassurance in his life, you can do that. so, they approve!

ೃ࿐

hope you enjoyed!

Here's some maybe controversial takes on My Hero Academia:

Spoilers under the Read More

Horikoshi has this weird thing for trying and failing to redeem abusive characters

Bakugou's character development is shit and that apology was awful

Hori is not focusing enough on Izuku, his main character, and the lack of introspection is appalling

Mineta being Hori's self-insert is disgusting and the SpaceToon version is leagues better

Dabi should not have been given ice powers

Bakugou is getting way too much screen-time and relevance, considering he wasn't even planned to be a major character

Ochako has become stale and lost any flavour after the Sport's Festival arc

Toga is not a good character

Shigaraki is not a good person. He was implied to be when he was younger, but not at the current point of time

Aizawa is a shit teacher and plays favourites with Bakugou and Shinsou

Shinsou is a lazy, quirkist asshole who likes to play Trauma Olympics despite his backstory being incredibly tame and not traumatising in the slightest

Monoma is actually really interesting and I love him

Momo's powers are being undersold majorly and Hori refuses to give her anything

All Might gets bashed way too much

Mic is the best adult around

Izuku should have either always been quirkless throughout the series or never should have given OfA away

Hori has a habit of making gory things happen for shock value and then immediately resolving them

Kaminari's quirk is OP but Hori doesn't want to acknowledge that

Eri is a plot hole and the way the heroes use her is disgusting. She should have just had a minor rewind quirk that was strengthened by Trigger, making it so she literally cannot rewind All Might to his prime, or Aizawa's eye and leg, or dead people

Mirio is amazing and I love him

Kouda is the purest boy but his hero costume is ass

People forget Iida a lot and it's saddening

Mitsuki is not abusive. She's just Asian

Inko is on a weird scale of 'supportive' and 'neglectful'

Hori lets Bakugou get away with way too much

[doodlegirl1998]

ngl im a mineta defender until the end, now before you jump me let me explain

his behavior is obvi disgusting (lets also not ignore the fact that hori has said hes his self insert) BUT IT IS EXTREMELY EASY TO FIX!

a lot of kids and teens who have similar behaviors often have parents with the same beliefs. not to say that this is always the case but it’s more common than not

which means that they’re raised not knowing that their behavior is wrong. they see it as acceptable, and not only that, but *expected* of them

it is an extremely easy thing to rectify. of course sometimes it’s harder depending on how much the behavior has been ingrained into them, but at the end of the day it is *fixable*

he was failed by his parents for encouraging his behavior and he was failed by other adults/teachers for letting it continue

also it’s not that much of a stretch to say that he was probably heavily bullied. he has a very prominent lisp, he’s a heteromorph, and he’s extremely short. i’ve seen several ppl who hc that he has dwarfism and i definitely agree with that

aizawa doesn’t seem to give a shit because he never takes any action to try and discipline him for how he acts

also im sick of the shinso replacing mineta fics. the only good thing abt shinso replacing aoyama is that ppl don’t have an excuse to replace him.

like for the love of god it’s not that hard to simply change his character. it annoys me to no end. bc i like mineta a lot! his quirk is interesting and he has a lot of potential as a character but he’s reduced to a creepy pervert bc every shonen anime needs to have at least one 🙄

tl;dr stop bashing mineta and start bashing hori

Hi @the-jello-bowl 👋

Stop bashing Mineta and start bashing Hori... hmm. You know what? That's a sentiment I could get behind.

After all, the ultimate problem with Mineta lies in his writing.

At the start of the series, Hori wrote him too perverted with too little of any other redeeming or sympathetic quality. That impression stuck - so a lot of fans want him out of heroism and out of 1A.

This is fair because Mineta's behaviour is triggering for many people, and he could make a dangerous figure as a hero and an adult if left unchecked and if his perversions worsen.

While I understand why, Shinsou replacing Mineta is a lazy way to do take Mineta out of 1A, since Shinsou canonically hasn't shown he deserves to be in the hero class nor shown to have good interactions with 1A as a collective.

While it doesn't make his behaviour excusable, you are right when you say Mineta was failed by the adults around him. Especially his parents and Aizawa, as you pointed out, they were the ones prime positioned to fix this behaviour, yet they did not. We don't know what his parents are like for certain, but I believe his dad was likely a verbally and emotionally abusive misogynist who Mineta idolised. And we know that Aizawa fluctuates between negligence and using his hero grade weapon on Mineta as discipline... so there is no consistent messaging there. Yikes.

Instead, Hori implied Mina had to clockwork orange Mineta to stop him being a pervert which... took away Mineta's whole agency in his decision to stop being perverted. (Did his character even get better at all by his own freewill really if Mina had to do this? Will that 'brainwashing' break one day? Here is another reason to hate Hori's writing.)

Hori also doesn't expand on the things that could make Mineta sympathetic, the lisp, the possibly being bullied in the past, the likely self-confidence issues. He doesn't expand on Mineta's backstory or expand on why he wants to be a hero, really (if it was just girls, he would have quit by now, let's be real).

It is a failure in Hori's writing that he doesnt give Mineta (as a HERO student) a redemption arc where he realises just how awful he's been to the girls and vows to make up for it. This moment could have even begun because Mineta stops his perversions due to wanting to be more well-liked and like Midoriya (who he looks up to). The building blocks are there - Hori neglects them.

TLDR: Mineta is a character that could have had potential, and his quirk is interesting. He had potential for a character redemption arc, potential for an interesting backstory, too.

The reason why Mineta is hated is because Hori wastes all his potential to have a lazily written creepy pervert throughout the majority of the story.

Good traits such as Mineta's bravery only make a large appearance later, and the perversions disappear too late in the story to really salvage his popularity.

Not only that, but being a hero is a privilege, not a right. Mineta has got to show through the story as a member of 1A why he deserves to be there and why he has the character for Heroism - unfortunately Hori fails to do this for him because of the reasons I mentioned above.

A lazily written cowardly perverted character could have worked in a minor villain character, but this is instead in a member of 1A, who we are meant to root for adding to the cognitive dissonance of his character.

Could you do a body swap with aizawa and fem reader? Their both pro hero’s that work at UA

Body Swapping

From: MHA Male Masterlist

Pairing: Aizawa x Fem Reader

Summary: You and your husband have switched bodies. how are you gonna be able to do your jobs?

You woke up as usual but you felt different. When you got up and started to stretch. You noticed your outfit. You did not remember wearing this outfit to bed but here you are. You walked to the bathroom and the first thing you saw in the mirror was your husband's face. You immediately scream. Aizawa heard your voice and immediately came to your rescue. But you only heard your voice.

"Sweetheart! Is everything okay?" You looked back and saw you standing right there. "What the hell.."

"Babe is that you?" You didn't even hear your voice. It was your husband.

He took your hand and guided you to the bed and sat you down. "We were probably hit by a quirk."

"Maybe it was that villain that was outside of the school the other day. People did say he had a body-swapping quirk before we went to go fight him."

"That has to be it but how would we be able to do our jobs." By the time he looked at you, you were in the mirror checking out his butt. "My love, it is not the right time to be checking out my butt."

You two both got dressed and headed towards the school. You both would try to go the whole school day acting as each other but it was pretty hard dealing with class 1-A but you managed. When it came to lunchtime, you decided to meet up and talk about the day.

"So how was it being me." It is pretty weird hearing yourself out of your body.

"Eh, it was great but your class is very fun to be around. How about being me?"

"I can manage."

How he was in class: You just go over with people about their hero names and types of departments they can go to.

In your class he was sipping his coffee while hearing everyone say what name they want to be their hero name.

If you are super nice, they would be shcoked at how Aizawa as you was just bashing their names right in front of them while sipping coffee.

If you are sort of rude or just very blunt, they would think it is just the same old teacher.

They would notice something up due to the way he acts. He acts far different from you so they would either think you had a bad day or you had to fight a villian.

How you was in his class:

If you are sweet, they thought he got hit with a villian quirk. Because you was nice to everyone but mineta. Some of the students wished you would stay after figuring out that you and your husband switched bodies. You would braid hair with momo. And overall a nice class for tou

If you are blunt or rude or just don’t do anything, they would think he is the same person. With a little suspicion.

[deusvervewrites]

Which MHA centric tropes do you think is overused and not utilized well for its intended purposes or that the writers in questions just don't think about it?

Dadzawa, for example, is used to make Aizawa into a better teacher since he does absolutely suck in canon. What is shouldn't used for is to infantilized the 1-A students, especially Izuku, or to justify the bashing or pretending the existence of other adult characters.

Shinso-replaces-Mineta-in-1-A is used to instantly put Shinso in 1-A instead of Mineta simply because trying to write a character with perverted traits(which teenage boys would have) and using such characters can be hard. It's well known that many writers just prefer Shinso simply because he looks "hotter" than Mineta and that Mineta looks like a gremlin to them. This doesn't get to the fact the Shinso was a twig back then and likely didn't condition himself for the Entrance Exam.

Suspected UA Traitor Izuku. The original prompt was due to all of the attacks on UA, the tired Aizawa blames Izuku because of his notebooks and other situations that conveniently makes it looks like that Izuku was the traitor but Nezu and AM were on Izuku's side because they knew the truth about Izuku's situation. Now, outside of villain Izuku fics, this trope is primarily used to give Izuku angst and torture porn, on top of All Might bashing, Izuku losing all of his friends(except for Bakugo sometimes for shipping purposes), and making Dadzawa a thing even though it's Aizawa who would cause of the issues.

I've already gone on record as being strongly against Fanon!Dadzawa and the Suspected Traitor genre. Like, I have multiple posts on each of those and why they're bad.

As for Shinsou replacing Mineta, it's no secret that I've found Shinsou's preparation for UA lacking, but Mineta isn't just a character with an unfortunate deisgn--he doesn't have a personality. He's a one-note character who makes the same joke over and over again, and 'Guy Does Something Perverted And Gets Slapped' stopped being funny in the 1980s.

I've mentioned this before but the trope I hate the most that isn't here is Midoriya 'snapping' because of All Might telling him that he can't be a Hero and going from "I think that saving people is the greatest thing someone can do" (canon dialogue) to mass-murderer in about 0.5 seconds. Like, if you want Midoriya to be a Villain, there are way more interesting reasons for it.

Matchlit - Chapter 1

cw: alcohol mention.

Masterlist

“I don’t think you’re staring hard enough, babe.”

The tease comes with a gentle bump of the shoulder, and your friend is now resting her chin on it before you can turn and react to her, looking in the same direction you were with a sly grin. You have two options at this juncture, to smile and let her get the best of you or to pretend you have no idea what she’s talking about. You are not staring at Bakugou Katsuki, across the bar, and you absolutely do not care very much for the way his biceps look under his shirt. He is just a friend after all.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about."

Lili puts a drink in your hand which you set down on the counter, before leaning against the counter to face her. Her brown eyes gleam under the bar’s lights, and she’s still smiling mischievously.

“That’s a long time to be staring at a buddy. A pal, if you will,” she says, with a sip of her drink. She adjusts her hair, then leans in close.

“Go dance. As friends,” she presses. “Maybe he’ll give you a friendly ass squeeze.”

With that, Lili mimes the action too just centimeters away from your own ass and that finally gets you to laugh. You’d do it back, but in seconds, she’s stumbled off, already clearly drunk and probably on her way to find her boyfriend. You make a mental note to make sure she actually finds Izuku in the crowded club before she gets kidnapped, then look back at Katsuki again. 

Admittedly, your friendship is strange, but so are many of his friendships anyway. Izuku, Eijiro… Katsuki just tends to make connections that are more intense than you’d expect, you tell yourself. If you are watching, it’s because you admire him, not because you love him any more than like a brother. 

It’s been years since you’ve met and your feelings haven’t changed.

You take Lili’s advice and make your way across the bar; Katsuki sees you coming and shifts Kirishima slightly out of the way - well, really shoves him - and makes space. Your arm loops around his in the crook of his elbow while he places his hands in his pockets. He smiles at you and you punch his shoulder softly. 

“Stop trying to look cool.”

“Trying?” he asks, raising an eyebrow. You pull at his cheek slightly, then let your hands join around his arm, encircling it. Kirishima looks and smiles and you pretend not to notice as he slips away.

Bakugou notices too.

“Are you using me as a shield?” Katsuki asks, looking around the club. As fun as low lights and loud music can be, the atmosphere is perfect for creeps. Even if you can fend for yourself, Katsuki often says that you are too polite. 

“No.”

“Where’s Chatty?” he asks. His arm remains steady in your hold as he downs his own drink, only the second of the night.

“Lili, ” you stress, “is probably wherever Izuku is.”

He raises an eyebrow.

“Looks like Deku is over there,” he points and you can see the young hero cornered by a group of drunk girls, the slightly inebriated, slightly bashful expression very evident on his face.

You frown. If she sees that, she’s almost definitely getting into an Uber and going home. You go to reach for your phone to check on her but Katsuki stops you with a shake of his head. At the same time, the music seems to change and it’s a song that you both know.

“Let’s dance,” he offers.

Or rather it’s a tell, not an ask. You spin onto the dance floor, and while Katsuki doesn’t really dance, he dances with you , the two of you swaying together side to side as the night ends.

---

Bakugou takes you home around 1 am in a taxi, insisting that he had work early in the morning and this would be the easiest way to get away from Denki, Mina and Sero, who would be out until dawn otherwise.

You accept the company, although a small part of you wishes you were dancing longer. He’s warm and safe, even now as you sit inches apart in the backseat, sharing a laugh about Mineta’s drawn-out negotiation for entry with the club bouncer (it’s understandably hard to justify letting in this odd cross between a pervert and a toddler).

Bakugou leaves you at  your doorstep with a promise to text you when he gets home himself, as though he were somehow at more risk than you; he rolls his eyes, but will nevertheless, and he is off, sobered enough to use his Quirk to take to the skies.

You mutter something under your breath about showing off but he can’t hear you, and you smile to yourself. 

As you get ready for bed, you realize your thread with Lili is filled with a wall of text, insisting she’s broken up with Izuku (no she hasn’t) for the fourth time that week, and you send her an exasperated-looking emoji in reply. She answers back with a pivot - did Kats stay over? - and you reply no, to which she replies - Lame - before wishing you a good night. 

She also has a busy schedule the next morning. You wonder when your entire class decided to conspire to force you and Katsuki closer together romantically, and admittedly it’s been on your mind more and more lately. 

What would it look like to be together - how would it feel to be more than friends… would it really be all that different?

It’s very obvious how differently he behaves with you versus others, that part you cannot deny. You round out his sharp edges and he makes you bolder, and it’s been like that since the day you met.

But that doesn’t always mean romantic love, because men and women can be friends. You are adamant about this. 

You and Katsuki are friends.

And yet, you wonder what he thinks of you as you lay yourself down to sleep. 

Katsuki is your last message of the night. 

Made it back safe. Sleep well. 

---

“When’s the next time you’re coming to see us?” Mitsuki asks, to which Katsuki immediately quips, “Never,” before scarfing down the rest of a convenience store sandwich. 

There’s a pause on the phone on the other line before Mitsuki growls.

“How are you still such a little shit to me despite everything?”

“Takes one to raise one!”

He sticks out his tongue slightly on the video call screening and his mother’s foul expression meets him, almost breaking out his taunt into a smile. 

Mitsuki rubs her temples and sighs. 

“Four weeks from now. I need you to clear your schedule and make your way home… your father and I have a very important thing to discuss with you and it’s better you be there in person for it.”

Bakugou narrows his eyes.

“Why can’t you tell me on the phone?”

Mitsuki shakes her head.

“It’s more appropriate in person.”

Bakugou doesn’t like this. His mother can say literally anything anywhere, so the idea of her refraining from being candid about anything is unnerving to say the least. He’d wonder if it were a death in the family if it weren’t for the fact that timing wise that didn’t make any damn sense.

“Fine. Text me the date and time so I can put it in my calendar,” he says. He pops open a can, and his mom frowns as she sees it on camera.

“Is that soda? You know soda is-”

“Goddammit, it’s sparkling water!”

---

“There are entirely too many people in this car,” Bakugou grumbles. 

Packed inside of a less than new but cheaply rented van are more young Heroes than should be off duty at any particular point in time, but it is summertime and all ten of you have been looking forward to this beach trip since its conception.

Well, some more than others.

The car crawls at a paltry 30 miles per hour despite being on a wide open highway, and Katsuki resists the urge to lean forward and tell Izuku to step on the damn gas or he’ll strangle him from behind. Lili sits in shotgun, giving extremely confusing directions to the anxious driver, and the tension in his shoulders is clearly visible, mounting every passing second.

“W-What’s the exit again?”

“Hold on, I have to answer this text from work,” she replies, barely looking up. Izuku makes a noise of frustration.

“Lili, I’m going to miss the exit,” he repeats.

Lili isn’t answering, engrossed in a reply and Izuku clearly starts to panic. June gives the name of the exit from behind just a second before Lili does, and Izuku turns hard , the car swerving suddenly and causing the rest of the heroes to lurch and complain in unison, Denki’s particularly loud “Bro, what the fuck?!” clearly standing out.

At the next rest stop, both are replaced.

Shinsou, now behind the wheel, complains incessantly about driving and about even being on the trip in the first place and June offers him snacks in the front seat to pacify him.

Bakugou steals a glance at you as you rest your head on Lili’s shoulder while she tries desperately to apologize to Izuku for stressing him out. There’s a smile on your face, despite the fact that your head is shaking from the animated way Lili defends her behavior, gesturing with her hands. He barely notices Kirishima who slides a little closer and rests his arm around his shoulder. 

“This trip is a good time to confess, by the way,” he says.

Katsuki shakes him off, then gives him a dirty look.

“What the hell are you on about?”

Kirishima rolls his eyes, then moves away to return to his seat next to Mina. Bakugou peels his eyes away, then checks his phone. His mother has sent a formal meeting invite to him through email which is strange. He can’t tell who the other recipients on this email are, if any.

This is too much, so he chooses to do what works best for him - ignore his mother’s shenanigans until they matter. He clicks accept to the invite and closes his eyes to rest for the remainder of the trip.

The beach house they finally reach is an odd combination of expansive and cozy and the young adults tumble in, the living room quickly taken over by haphazardly tossed bags, no one bothering to claim a room until later that night. 

Animals, Bakugou thinks under his breath, appraising the sudden explosive mess while he decides unlike the rest to claim a neat corner to deposit his things. 

Lili, Izuku, June, Mina, Kirishima, Shinsou, Denki and Shoto disappear out of the door almost immediately and only you hang behind to wait for him. 

“The mess is getting to you, isn’t it?” you tease as he approaches the doorway where you stand. 

Bakugou shakes his head.

“I’m not cleaning anyone’s shit up is all I’m saying.”

You laugh at his ever-grumpy demeanor and Bakugou follows you out, hands in his pockets as you meet up with the others.

The ten of you coalesce as a group in the center of the boardwalk, in the midst of the bustling crowd, and just as soon disperse - Kirishima and Mina breaking away first, hand in hand, and Izuku following behind Lili who looks initially like she’s wandering off alone. Shinsou, June, Shoto and Denki head in the last direction for the food court, and once again it’s just the two of you. 

The sun is starting to set and the reddish orange hue mirrors the colors woven in your sundress but doesn’t outshine them. Bakugou decides the color is particularly beautiful on you and wonders if this is the certain je ne sais quoi his mother describes in her clientele.

Orange is not the only color that suits you, but it is one of the best so far. Perhaps he is biased.

“I realized the other day we never really get the chance to dance together,” you bring up suddenly as you walk. Your voice is softer than usual as you laugh, and your fingers tuck your hair behind your ear. Bakugou wonders if for once you’re being shy around him and then he remembers what Kirishima has said and he can feel the sun’s rays on the back of his neck.

He should shut the fuck up.

“Got a little too drunk and got carried away. Don’t expect it to happen again,” Bakugou replies, shaking off his moment of embarrassment with a grin. You hip bump him.

“Admit it was nice.”

“It was okay .” He stresses the last word. You roll your eyes and look away, then your gaze settles on a shooting game. 

“Let me embarrass you real quick,” you offer, and the bashfulness is over, and you are kids again, racing to the top of a hill.

---

"Oh, how nice of you to get a prize for ___!” June points out as the group reconvenes, a giant cat hovering on Bakugou’s shoulders while yours are clear. You don’t have the heart to tell them you won this for him while he won absolutely nothing and nearly got into a fight with the game manager before remembering he was moderately famous so you laugh and go along with it.

Bakugou gives you a thankful look. Twin goldfish swim in a plastic bag in Lili’s right hand, and she and Izuku appear to be in a different world of thought, discussion ghte pros and cons of an automated temperature controlled fish tank versus a traditional fish bowl and a thermometer, nuances that clearly matter very little and far too much. 

Mina says something about fast food for dinner and the group agrees on burgers, fries and shakes for the night and scary movies until an arbitrary bedtime. Mina falls asleep on the couch, as do Lili and June in bean bag chairs set right next to each other, and Denki on the ground,  head resting on Shinsou’s lap as he texts, barely noticing the credits rolling on the screen.

By now Bakugou has been gone for a little too long and you go off to check on him, leaving Izuku to collect exhausted bodies and deposit them in their appropriate rooms.

Katsuki has conveniently picked the room furthest down the hall, but yours is only two rooms away. Despite the fact that the door is slightly ajar, you are still polite enough to knock instead of barging in. He doesn’t exactly startle, but you can see the muscles of his shoulders tense as you enter, and then he turns to see you, offering a smile. It’s a slightly gloomier one than usual, and you move your way to his bed to lay down.

“Did you have fun today?” you ask, crossing your ankles. He comes in beside you and pulls you close to him as though you were a teddy bear, back to chest, and you think for a moment that the door is open, and you look more ridiculous every day denying your relationship being more than romantic. 

“Yeah,” he whispers into your shirt.

“Then why do you sound so stressed?”

He lets go finally and rolls onto his back and you turn now, facing him. He looks at the ceiling and you watch him betray discomfort with the furrow of his eyebrows.

“I have to go home suddenly.” 

Your eyes widen.

“Now?”

He cuts a glance at you then pokes your head.

“Not now, dummy,” he replies. “But soon.”

“Are you having issues with your parents?” you ask. There’s no reason for him to be concerned really - although his relationship can be tenuous with Mitsuki, whose smile is heavy and indeterminate when she sees you, they get along well enough and have affection for each other. What could possibly be wrong now?

Bakugou himself has no idea, and sighs.

“Something feels wrong,” he thinks. “I feel like I’m going to be told some family member died or something.”

You tilt your head, not sure exactly what more to say than, “Sorry, I hope not, Katsuki.”

He gives you a glance, then smiles and kicks you gently. 

“Go do that soft shit elsewhere. I’m fine.”

You giggle and kick back, and he kicks you enough that you fall out of the bed, letting out a yelp.

“Katsuki!”

He peers over and brings you to your feet with a quick tug, a large grin on his face. 

“You’re not sleeping in here tonight, get the hell out.”

Your face flushes.

“I didn’t ask!” you insist but you run out quickly, lest anyone else hear and make assumptions.

“Yeah,  yeah,” you can hear him tease on the way out.

But if you did, he’d let you.

I've just had a thought of something - would anyone be totally shipping Togachaco right now if canon events all occurred yet Toga was gender swapped?

See this is something that's been bothering me because a lot of fans brush over Toga's creepy behaviour because of the "queer representation" or parallels they can see. But they should be pissed that this (I.e Toga's serial killing, making orgasmic faces while drinking blood - which she views as intimate as kissing so there's a consent issue there) is what they get.

If those 'representation moments' weren't there and it was male!Toga doing things like grabbing Ocha's breast as leverage I feel like he would get tonnes more hate.

Just look at how Mineta is hated (rightfully) for grabbing the 1A girls breasts without their consent vs Toga doing the same to Ocha and *crickets*.

What are your thoughts?

Knowing how unpredictable this fandom can be sometimes, I'm honestly not sure. Though I'm more than willing to figure that out.

In my post talking about my Midnight Bashing fic, I said that the double standards would be obvious if Midnight was a guy flirting with his students. So there is a possibility that people would be a little more critical and getting onto how Toga acts if she was a guy.

And it seems like the reason why people are so lax about this is because of the fact that she's bi, which as we know that the representation in this series is not good at all.

Because the trans character we see is on the villain side and was killed off just to prop up Overhaul as a big bad, Rock Lock was literally seen in the wrong for actually caring about the kids to where people literally made jokes about other characters stop supporting the BLM movement, Miruko... enough said, and the whole anti mutant subplot that was barely built up at all.

THAT'S how pitiful all this "Representation" is. People are so thirsty to see representation in media that they probably don't care as long as it's somewhere, not saying everyone, but my point stands.

But for final thoughts, yeah, I do feel like if Toga was a guy doing this he would get more hate and that people are okay with this because "LGBT rep"

I don't get the hate all might recieves from this fickle fandom while Aizawa gets praised over the moon.

Yes All might have told izuku to give up first but I don't see anything wrong now or even when I first watched season 1. The man has more experience and has already seen his fair share of cruelty over the years. He knows the difficulty of being a Hero with a quirk and even with all of that power, It took him losing his stomach to beat AFO. All might was being realistic here. He didn't want to be reckless & give false hope or encouragement here. Also he didn't laugh or outright tell him to quit. He told izuku who had no power to try other ways to become a Hero which was being a policeman.

2nd what did izuku do before meeting all might?. Absolutely nothing. On top of being quirkless He didn't have a strong physique to back it up. Sure he wrote analysis on quirks, heroes and villains but that's not gonna help in the longer run. All Might wouldn't know what Izuku would've gone through in life till this point. He doesn't know izuku was suicide baited. I'm not bashing Izuku but trying to see this from AM's side as well. Maybe he could've seen Izuku's behaviour to determine that the kid was abused but then again the man was also in a hurry and probably wasn't in the right frame of mind after displaying his long kept secret to a middle school kid.

Still All Might fckin apologized for his earlier comments and approved Izuku. He helped izuku get in shape, and gave his quirk. Encouraged him time and time again positively.

Wtf did Aizawa do? Ridiculed Midoriya infront of everyone. Never apologized. Never once supported him and always put izuku's abuser on a pedestal. Heck izuku should've been in top 10 in the apprehension test. He had better physical stats than Denki, Jiro, uraraka ( yeah she wasn't OP with her quirk during that time and had a lot of stamina issues), Koji, Mineta, Toru, Ashido to name some. Are we sure Aizawa didn't rig the exam?. Narrative protected that POS. Never once encouraged Izuku, never helped him when he was struggling with his quirk. Never even bothered to train his students in quirkless combat but went out of his way to tutor Shinso. His only good points are being a good hero and a good gaurdian for Eri but that ain't enough for getting this much praise. He knew Iida was going after Stain but didn't do anything.

All Might has flaws being a teacher but he at least tries his best to help Izuku with his problems and always been there for him. He encouraged his students every time. Trains them and has always been there for them unlike a certain someone.

All of All Might's good points outweigh Aizawa's by a higher margin.

End of my rant, i just see this as too unfair how fanfics bash All might for no fuckin reason while it coddles Aizawa. Especially the Dekuverse fics. Heck Hori himself treats All Might like shit in canon. The Izuku solo arc is a good proof.

All Might deserved better both in Canon and in Fanon.

Hi @bakutrash 👋,

I get it in the sense that the fandom follows suit of what the story itself is doing - AM gets critiqued more than Aizawa by the narrative (since Aizawa is Hori's favoured mouthpiece) and the fandom follows suit.

Dadzawa as a trope is also largely wish fulfilment. The wish to see 1A as a family and the wish to see Aizawa as the 'stern mentor/ father figure with a heart of gold' archetype. When Aizawa is not this - especially not to Izuku.

If anything All Might is Izuku's key mentor / father figure in the story. He made his mistakes in regard to Izuku but made up for them and apologised. AM also does his best to learn how to be a teacher and be supportive to Izuku and take care of him. Aizawa never does and Hori parades all of his actions as logical so the fandom (at large) doesn't critique him for them.

All Might is traumatised but Hori rarely focuses on it (unlike Aizawa's trauma), so it gives him less sympathy and exploration from it by the fans.

All Might fought a battle only his power in OFA could win. It was quirkless Izuku acting to save Bakugou that made All Might aware that Izuku had potential and that he shouldn't have been so hasty to judge him. All Might also didn't know Izuku took to analysis and suggested alternatives to heroics he felt more suited to a quirkless person.

Adding to this, All Might also began Quirkless himself so it's unlikely he would actually hold extreme Quirkist views like I've seen in some bashing fics (actually looking at Canon Aizawa displays more quirkest attitudes than All Might*.)

Yet the majority of the fandom focuses on All Might's intial refusal of Izuku's dreams and scapegoat him for Izuku's lack of self worth. - The narrative does this too, disgustingly through Bakugou's mouth, not acknowledging once that Bakugou and poor Teachers to Izuku (like Aizawa) are the cause of it.

Did Aizawa rig the exam? I think (and a lot of others critical of Aizawa) think he did. As you rightly pointed out Izuku should have been higher in the quirk apprehension test than he did (especially since he trained religiously and followed a training plan made by the Number One hero for months!)

Unironically, Aizawa at the beginning of the story seemed to dislike Midoriya, and consistently he has favoured Bakugou over him (more on this point later.)

He also viewed Bakugou's bullying as a "rivalry."

Why is this?

Other than the actual reason - Aizawa is Hori's Mouthpiece and therefore have him be Bkg's biggest simp to try to make us like him - there are two options.

1) Aizawa is either not as observant as he thinks he is (supported by him falling asleep all the time - so obviously by doing this he would miss things.) 2) OR Aizawa is malicious and thinks Midoriya needs to toughen up and deal with his bully like he did.

Neither of these options make Aizawa look particularly good. But 1) has room for growth and 2) does not.

Where is the logic in the Quirk Apprehension test? It favours those quirks that Aizawa claims he dislikes that the entrance exam favours - those flashy and combattive quirks such as the ones that belong to Bakugou, Todoroki and Yaoyorozo.

Additionally, singling out Izuku like that, on the first day would be realistically massively damaging to a student and to the classes morale overall.

Would you be comfortable with a 'third parent' (as these homeroom teachers are meant to be) or a teacher in general who does that to a classmate or to you the second they show they need some help? I wouldn't be...

Where is the logic in favouring Bakugou (who essentially a worse version of Aizawa's bully at U.A - Sensoji) or Shinsou who didn't work for his dream of Heroism and only attempted to skate in on his powerful quirk? These should both be characters that Aizawa (from what we are narratively told about him) dislike. Yet Hori does not allow this to occur as Aizawa is Hori's favoured mouthpiece and Hori wants him to have a mini me in Shinsou.

*- There appears to be a degree of quirkism ironically at play here. Bakugou is favoured because he is confident and has a quirk that is "perfect for heroics".

Whereas Shinsou is favoured because Aizawa sees someone like himself. The other students - Aizawa isn't shown to care all that much (aside from the additional to the story artworks.)

And as for Eri, Aizawa seems to care for her but honestly we don't see her nearly enough to judge whether he's actually a good guardian. There's also the fact of Aizawa seeming to struggle to take care of himself and how he treats his students so realistically, would he be a good guardian to her?

In universe, in spite of all logic, Aizawa has apparently been teaching as 'hardass ExpellZawa' for years without consequence - against himself or UA as an institution .

And Aizawa has never once reflected on the long term damage that all of his trauma response methods would do on all his students - not just the ones he expelled.

Hori never even had Aizawa question himself at any point - because the fact that he's Hori's mouthpiece means Aizawa is never meant to be wrong so he never believes himself to be. That stunts him as a character.

Even the revelation of Kurogiri as KurOboro didn't make him do this.

Aizawa, as he is in canon, is heavily traumatised, too set in his ways and too much of a mouthpiece for Hori. Hori also either doesn't see the point of or the interest in having Aizawa grow from his mistakes and heal from his trauma - which is a shame.

Whereas All Might, as he is in canon, is also heavily traumatised, has been crapped all over by Hori but is shown to do his best in learning and growing from his mistakes - both as a teacher and mentor to Izuku.

Final thoughts:

Sorry I responded with a rant of my own!

Personally, I find Dadzawa fine in a fic, as long as it has DadMight too OR has Aizawa make up for his mistakes to the class and grow as a mentor.

However, as time has gone on and I've got more into MHA, I find it really irritates me to see a fic bash All Might. Especially using Aizawa to do so, when in canon Aizawa has done much worse as a teacher - especially to Izuku and his past classes.

I stand by the opinion that although Canon!Aizawa may care for Class 1A as he currently acts - he should not be a homeroom teacher or have his trauma responses be praised as 'logical teaching.'
