AND ANOTHER THING one of the major factors of the manga (which a lot of people thought thought felt unfinished, me included) was creating a society that encourages equal treatment and understanding no matter what your quirk or circumstance is in order to prevent the rebirth of villains. I’m just going to remind you that Deku could’ve easily grown up to be a villain or at least a very hateful person given the childhood he had.
He started the story quirkless, him and Katsuki kept referring to OFA as a “borrowed power” AND the vestiges even warned him that he’d probably be the last user. DEKU LOSING OFA AND BEING A QUIRKLESS HERO HAS BEEN FORESHADOWED FOR YEARS!!
Given Shoji and Ochako fighting for quirk equality and creating a new quirk counseling program, those two things can easily lead to a future with more quirkless heroes. I think it’s fitting that Deku does his part by setting an example and being someone quirkless children can look up to. Not to mention it can also easily lead to less people looking down upon quirklessness and preventing another child from going through the same things Deku had to as a child.
It’s never been just about preventing children from growing up to become villains, it’s preventing any form of inequality like making sure students aren’t put on such a high pedestal at such a young age (a mistake made with Katsuki), assuring that it’s taught that people are still people no matter their quirk (something Shoji, Deku, Toga, and Shigaraki all suffered the consequences of due to its lack), and making sure that no entity is so powerful that an entire society is dependent on it (which is why it’s so important that OFA and AFO die together. All Might making OFA so powerful that people looked at him as deity causing some people to even try to challenge him and being impossible to beat to everyone but his direct counterpart - AFO ie the “Demon Lord”… literally God vs Devil especially given the religious history behind the saying “one for all and all for one”).
All of this to say, it’s frustrating that people are upset about things that actually WERE hinted at but aren’t upset about the real inconsistencies and unfinished background arcs that presented themselves at the end. There are so many other things about the end that people could be upset about and I’d be able to understand but, being upset about deku losing OFA and being a teacher before becoming a quirkless hero? How did the story fly that far above your head?
#also deku never said ‘this is the story of how I become no. 1 hero’#like genuinely where did people get that from#and how’re you gonna fix your mouth to say ‘wow guess the author forgot what he set up Deku’s goal to be’ when it’s your own memory at faul#HE NEVER SAID THAT#IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN ‘GREATEST’#also people being mad that he didn’t end up being number one hero by the end just further proves how weird and toxic the ranking system is#anyways#bakudeku#bnha#bkdk#midoriya izuku#mha#bnha spoilers#bnha meta#mini meta#more of a rant tho tbh

⊹˚. ♡ hi hi! i’m Dove and i was wondering if i could have a romantic matchup for BNHA please? (i’m 17 and an ISFP if that helps!)
i’m not entirely sure what my gender or sexuality is :,> (all i know is that i have a preference for men and i prefer to be referred to as masc titles)
i really like sleeping when i can, drawing and writing are things i also like to do! i also like ranting about random things-
i tend to stay by myself though i do like hanging out with my friends whenever i can! i’m very sensitive emotionally and i tend to be able to empathize with people easily, though it tends to take a toll on me. having anger issues doesn’t help either- though i rarely take my emotions out on people.
i’m very physically affectionate and i tend to show my love through actions rather than words. i tend to get overstimulated/overwhelmed whenever there’s too much noise or people around me. i’m also super loyal to my friends and tend to be a bit protective over them (and just the people i love in general)
i tend to stay up VERY late at night because it’s pretty calming and it’s when i have the most energy. i tend to stay at home a lot but i do like going on walks or randomly exploring my area. i’d also like to be a librarian or work at a bookstore!
i love moths and cats to death and could talk for hours about them tbh- though i love listening to people i like talk about the things they like too!
thank you lots for your time! i hope you enjoy your day!
₊‧.°.⋆✮⋆.°.‧₊
Sero :
Sero honestly wasn't that close to you at first. Even though you're both in similar friend groups, he just never got to hang out with you that much. Not by choice, though, because you always seemed so lovely when he did interact with you. But recently, he's been seeing you a lot in the common area in the dorms at night, just chilling. He joins (with your permission) and keeps you company until both your eyes are closing. Sero's a pretty chill and calming person anyway, so you don't mind and appreciate the company. There's just something about sitting underneath a starlit sky that brings out a certain vulnerability and openness to you both. He seems to understand you in a way that no one else can, and there's no one else Sero has been more comfortable opening up to than you. The moonlight also seems to highlight your beauty and makes you look ethereal, so it was truly only a matter of time before he fell for you.
Kirishima :
Kirishima is one of your bestest friends, but there's just something so naturally charming and sweet about him. He's the best person to go on random walks with, and he's always pointing out birds and squirrels in the trees. It's actually really endearing and cute. He's not much of a book person but he's always down to go to bookshops with you and points out books he thinks have the prettiest cover. I can see you both having a crush on each other, and literally everyone else notices and picks up on it, too. But for some reason, you both remain in denial. For Kirishima, he doesn't realise he has a crush on you. It's mainly because he thinks his feelings are normal because everyone loves their friends! He's also absolutely certain there's no way you see him as more than a friend. Even though for some reason his heart beats faster when you hug him, and he fantasises about being in a relationship with you when you're holding hands... Yeahh he definitely doesn't have a crush on you.
a/n :: im so so sorry for answering your ask late !! exams have been a pain in the butt fr, and i haven't really been able to concentrate properly, but i hope ive done you justice and thank you so so much for sending a request in. i hope you like it and let me know what you think !! you're so sweet, thank you so much, and i hope you're having a wonderful day and are taking care of yourself too !!

i am asking you about dermabrasion by pennydaniels 👀
THANK YOU FOR THE QUESTION!!! IM NOW GOING TO GO CRAZY !
DERMABRASION BY PENNYDANIELS is a canon divergent BNHA fic focusing mainly on Todoroki Shouto and Dabi’s relationship if Shouto had figured out his identity and tracked him down at the start of the UA school year. It is over 400k words, 41 chapters, and is one of my favorite BNHA fics (or just plain fics) ever. I cannot recommend it enough.
I will try SO HARD not to spoil anything in this rant/essay in case you haven’t read it… But minor spoiler warning anyway in case I mess up.
Some of the stuff I’m going to talk about is waay down the line (like 40 chapters out of 41 chapters type of down the line) but the fact that you know it’ll happen won’t take away from the joy of reading it because the execution is just that good. Probably. The build-up to these moments is just as good as them happening, if not better, I SWEAR.
OK. RANT BEGIN.
For reference, this fic began December 2020 and finished January 2023!! We got the Dabi is a Todoroki reveal November 2020 and then more about his backstory February 2021.
So this means that Dabi’s characterization and backstory here aren’t 100% canon compliant. Despite the fact that it’s in AU territory, the fic handles Dabi’s character and motivations really well?? Arguably, its because it’s not canon compliant that the fic is able to give us such a good insight into his character... Wow… When authors can expand on existing narratives while staying true to the essence of the characters… 😍…
Dabi’s motives, which I think are actually super close to canon (!!!), and how they inform his choices within the timeline of the fic and in his backstory make me so crazy. I am going to be cryptic and just say that the glimpses we get of young tweenage Touya in this fic is everything to me. His whole relationship with Endeavor at literally at any point in the story is especially well done…
A large part of this fic’s appeal to me is how it handles Endeavor. I am a huge fan of the Todorokis’ whole plot and since Enji is the dead centre of that fucked up family storm, I think getting him right is probably one of the most pivotal points in writing fics that puts emphasis around literally any Todoroki. Not even just how Enji himself is, but also the way other characters think about and act around him should be given thought and written with care... Dermabrasion does him, his affect on his kids and his wife and his development so much justice.
The fic begins with Season 1 Shouto’s Endeavor hatred. His vehemence for the guy is so obvious even in just the first few paragraphs where he dubs him ‘that fucker.’ He does this consistently throughout the fic LOL
Tbh. This put me off the fic a little, since I’m not interested in reading Endeavor-bashing fics (no matter how deserved they are HAHA) but I just got over myself and realised no, yeah. This is in character, it is completely understandable and a little hilarious...
What I like here is that his feelings towards Endeavor (negative or otherwise) aren’t a static thing — it progresses not just as Endeavor changes, but as he grows closer in understanding Dabi and the rest of his family and as he, himself, grows up. It’s so rewarding to see it unfold throughout the storyline little by little. I want to say that it happens in the background but honestly Endeavor haunts this entire fic. It’s not that he’s always there. Honestly, he doesn’t show up that much, but it’s only by virtue of his actions that this storyline exists at all so it’s like every action taken is an echo of his. Something about how even when he’s not there, everything is always about him and what he’s done. It’s great, and I mean that genuinely. I love this so bad.
Shouto’s character here is perfect for this sort of fic, I think. He’s stunted and it’s openly acknowledged by other characters how… weird?? he can come across. I think it just makes his arc all that more apparent... He becomes somewhat of a moral paragon and I’n not even upset about it. His development as a character is thoroughly explored and so hard-earned that his transformation from a dead-faced, dead-eyed kid to who he is at the end of the fic is just. rewarding.
AND ITS NOT JUST HIM… Almost every main-focus character goes through some sort of gratifying journey and are made to reckon with parts of themselves that in Dabi’s case, would mean redefining his entire identity. You can tell that all the characters in this fic want to be better, not just for themselves, but for the people around them. It’s one of my favourite things about this fic, how personal improvement is such a huge part in it. This is definitely the Mob Psycho 100 lover in me speaking.
(Side tangent: MP100 being a story about an overpowered, stoic, repressed kid who, with the company of a dubiously moral older brother figure, learns how to become a better version of himself and by doing that, he inspires those around him, including that dubiously moral older brother figure. This is Dermabrasion in a different world. If you love MP100, I will eat my entire shoe if you don’t enjoy Dermabrasion too.)
While the focus is definitely mainly on Shouto and Dabi, the entire family has their part in it. Natsuo, Fuyumi, Rei and Enji all get their moments to shine and show their growth and unique personalities. A fun thing about this is how similar Shouto and Enji are… I think it really drives home that they’re family.
I don’t think this is a huge spoiler, since it’s kinda implied in the premise, but when Natsuo reunites with Dabi the interaction is so. Real. And the fact that it takes time and effort for their relationship to be built back is so poignant and crazy and SICK. Everything in this fic is earned through a lot of tears and pain and misery. It’s a cathartic read.
Okay, now that I made it sound like the entire fic is just one huge therapy session, let me mention humour once then immediately go back to doing that HAHAHA I think this fic is funny as hell. Humour is subjective, yesyesyes, but it grew on me and it WILL grow on you. The back and forths between characters, Shouto’s natural temperament making him predisposed to being absolutely Comical, the inherent comedy of being in a Hero Society... As someone with siblings the way the Todoroki siblings interact here, fights and messy reuniting shit notwithstanding, has so much of the annoyed love and care that you get from the people you grew up with. I particularly like Fuyumi and Natsuo’s dynamic together.
They’re outcasts in different ways than Dabi and Shouto are outcasts. The guilt and remorse they feel not just from not being able to step in for Shouto, but for leading their own lives is GAHHH. The entire thing about being in a different world to their brothers and dad is … Augh. Heroes and Villains.
Rei. Rei… I am GUTTED by every scene she is in. I reread ‘when your love has always been enough (for me)’ by classicequinox to cope. That is a different post to make one day when I have the energy.
Idk if I said all I wanted to say. There’s definitely more to this fic. DabiHawks, for one. I think they’re great here. Somehow they AREN’T horrifically toxic, WOO!! The details of this I will leave for you to read… Another thing I like about this fic is how 1A reacts to Todoroki family lol. LOV also has its part in this fic, I think it is sweet what happens to them but ofc since they aren’t really the main focus, it’s more a fun bonus to see what happens to them.
Ok I need to wrap this up. One day I’ll write a proper spoiler-full essay about this with a thesis statement and everything but yk. Life.
To conclude I’ll just talk about the ending of this fic. It’s my favourite, absolute favourite thing about it. The author themself quoted a comment they received in the last chapter that I am going to quote here too: “Even at the end there's the clear sense that the character's lives will continue and that this is only the beginning for them.” That is literally the best way to sum up this fic. These character’s will continue growing and bettering and it gives me so much real, genuine hope in myself that I can change, too. So yeah. Read this fic and if it changes your life let me know.

👀👀👀👀👀 I am indeed intrigued why you don't like tododeku lol tbh I haven't read/watched bnha in a hot second but looking back I def can't vibe with it given the whole "I think you're getting ready to forgive him, todoroki-kun, bc you're a good person" like,,, holy shit dude can you fucking not 🤮🫠 also the exact moment I stopped giving a shit about deku as a character and actively kinda hating him bc that's like,,,,, Not Okay™ to say to abuse victims ever, you little shit
Also imo even tho he helped shoto during the Sports Festival like!! That's not how you actually help someone with their trauma and getting mad that he's not giving it his all instead of understanding that it's literally a traumatic response is,,, Big Oof™
Anyways sorry this turned into a rant in your inbox, please spill the tea lol 💀
@s-nyah-suke you just perfectly summed up why I don’t like todo/deku lmao.
The way Izuku keeps idolizing Endeavor, even after finding out that he was a domestic and child abuser, just doesn’t sit right with me.
And what bothers me even more is Shoto never gets offended at Izuku for telling him how to deal with his trauma. You’d think that as his supposedly best friend, Izuku would be more understanding on why Shoto hates his dad and would even be mutually angry at Enji on his behalf but nah 🤪
(Then again, what do you expect from the same character who acts all buddy-buddy with his childhood bully and wants Overhaul to apologize to Eri without seemingly once considering how she’d react/feel to seeing her abuser again)
Anyways, Shoto deserves better than someone who excuses his father’s past just because he’s a hero.
#sorry this is late I just woke up but thank you!!!#never apologize for ranting in my inbox#aizawa don’t look#💙

hey 💛 you said you'd talk about any characters or pairings... But what are YOUR favorite pairings? I can't tell which shisui one you like more... And what about other fandoms?
Have a good weekend 💛
P S take all the time you need to write 💛
Hey Anon ✨
So, for Shisui... I don't really have any favorite ships, which I know is probably a wishy-washy answer but it's true. For reading, well, there's not exactly a huge variety so I just take what I can get and that I enjoy (on a fic-by-fic basis).
For writing, well most of my fics with a listed ship haven't gotten around to that part just yet. For the romance I have addressed (Shisui x Tenzo, Squad Two Poly, ShiKakaGen, and Shisui x Sakumo), i liked all of them at the time of writing and it hasn't changed afterwards! Tbh the thing I want most from a Shisui fic is the satisfaction of him being loved and appreciated 😅 which, as most of my readers will know from what I do post, I usually get from platonic-centric fics anyway
For other characters, I'm a huge multishipper. It helps that I hate love triangles and generally quip that "poly fixes everything" 🤭 So long as it makes sense in the moment of the fic, that's pretty much all that matters. I do have some ships I won't touch, but I won't list them here because that's unnecessary ☺️
For my Tokoyami fic, I can't remember if i listed a Tokoyami/? But there is the potential for a main pairing in the plans, but i don't... hm, 'hardcore ship' him with anyone? I'll play it by ear as the fic developes
In other BNHA works, I'm pretty open - again, so long as it makes sense and I enjoy it in the context of the fic
As for other fandoms.... Ahhhh
I only have one true OTP that I don't actually budge on, and that's Obi x Shirayuki in Akagami no Shirayuki-hime/Snow White With The Red Hair (AnS/SWWRH), because I don't hate or dislike any of the main cast! No hate! But I was so immediately struck by their dynamic, and with the way that canon has developed... Well, I really can't look at it any other way. Katlou has unfortunately been witness to my quarter-annual ObiYuki freak out, where I completely lose my mind and rant to her about how much I love them whilst she nods sagely and vaguely remembers what I've said on previous occasions 🤣
... i think I have a type of character fixation which is "Incredible Skills, Dubious Reputation, Feral Devotion" and bonus points if they're dark haired and secretly (or not so secretly) a sweetheart 🤷
This isn't a master list of pairings, like maybe you were looking for but what can I say? 😅 Thanks for your support, anon, and i hope you also have a great weekend!
#is this...height anon??? im sideeying those 💛#if not IGNORE ME SORRY#Torship#torship talks#anon#ask#shipping

*deep breath* Okay...
NO ONE who ships bakudeku dismisses how badly Bakugou treated Midoriya.
NO ONE who ships bakudeku is saying that it wasn't bad behavior and that he shouldn't be chastized for it.
NO ONE is saying that them shipping two FICTIONAL CHARACTERS automatically dismisses whatever abuse or trauma other people have experienced from bullying nor does it mean that they do not sympathize with the real people who have suffered.
NO ONE is telling people who were victims of abuse to go and date their bullies.
There are a lot of people who feel like they have the right to invalidate a ship (again, BETWEEN TWO FICTIONAL CHARACTERS) and bash REAL PEOPLE (for the sake of a fictional character) because they believe their experiences and what they would do in that situation is more credible than what is canonically happening in the story that the ship is based on.
To antis who love to lurk and post hate on the tag and harass people who ship bakudeku, you may not want to have any sort of a relationship with someone that has bullied or abused you, and that is completely understandable. Again, no one is forcing you to. Why you would think anyone is doing that to you is beyond me because DEKU IS NOT A SELF-INSERT CHARACTER for abuse victims. He's not there for you to project your own experiences on. He has his own story to tell and his own set of morals and ideals. Just because he has had some experiences that remind you of your own traumatic past, it doesn't mean that those situations are exactly the same (was your childhood also affected by a quirk-driven society? I don't think so) or that Deku would follow the same footsteps that you would have done. And it certainly doesn't give you justification to go around harassing people who have different opinions than you. That's just absolutely hypocritical.
Deku doesn't even see Kacchan as an abuser nor does he hate him, otherwise he wouldn't be admiring him, looking up to him for inspiration, nor would he be chasing after him after so many years. Not to mention the times when he deperately tried to save Kacchan even at the risk of his own life (it was his plan that got Bakugou out of Kamino). Shipping lens aside, anyone who has been following the series can clearly see how important Kacchan is to Deku. Deku made up his mind on that, so who gave you the right to decide that for him?
In the wise words of @drivingmenatz in his video (pretty much pure gold and everyone should watch it whether they ship it or not): BakuDeku | What's in an OTP?:
"You may see yourself in a fictional character, but that fictional character is not you."
And calling Horikoshi a bad writer or harassing him for not writing Deku in the way you want him to act is absolutely not okay. Wtf?! Go write your own story then, that's what fanfiction is for anyway. If you hate the story that much or if there are too much triggers for you, why would you even continue following it? Find another story to read ffs. There are literally thousands out there. There's so much more you can do with you time other than wasting it on something that stresses you out.
#bakudeku#bnha#boku no hero academia#my hero academia#mha#midoriya izuku#bakugou katsuki#katsudeku#izukatsu#blacklist the tag and just move on#you have your own tag already#its tiring reading the same complaint everyday#deku vs kacchan 2#bnha meta i guess??#jesus christ it took me a day to figure out why this isnt appearing on the bkdk tag#more like a bnha rant tbh

Mineta the kind of character where even if you don’t hate him, you can enjoy the fandom making jokes and such at his expense.
Just remember! While much of the fandom would rather have Mineta die, the class themselves doesn’t completely hate him!
For example, the girls trying to make him feel more included and excited for the festival:
And Aizawa’s encouragement before the license exam?
He has a horrible personality with little redeeming qualities, yes. Does he want to be a hero for the wrong reasons? Yes. But you can’t deny that the class doesn’t want him to feel left out or lesser than everyone else.
#i feel like this is a more of a rant on how good hearted the class is more than anything else#like aizawa and mina are the best kind of people tbh#mineta's a comic relief character#stop acting like he's harming real life women#bnha#bnha minoru#mineta minoru#bnha mineta#they just love their classmates and students and want them to do their best

sometimes i feel so thankful that certain series and games n stuff were super popular on tumblr years ago and we got to have a great experience with them back then... like danganronpa in around 2012(?) for example. the fandom was at its peak and it was super fun! i kinda feel like if it had come out today and reached the same popularity the fandom experience would’ve been so different. there’d be hundreds of people on here calling it ‘problematique’ and making things super weird for people who enjoyed it, acting like they were some terrible fetishists or something for liking a series that’s essentially about a murder game between high schoolers. and u can BET there’d be so many people who’d harass anyone who liked junko... when if u can’t stan junko enoshima then literally what’s the point.
#queen#personal#don't mind me tbh i've just been... thinking about a lot of stuff#how this site is starting to feel a little bit more toxic every day to me <:/#in all honesty i'm kinda upset with myself for making these posts cause i sound like some anti-swj or something#i'm not! i still believe tumblr's been a great platform educating people and giving space for diversity and whatnot#but people are going too far and to an unhealthy amount#it's all kinda losing its meaning and rather becoming some contest of who's the most 'morally pure' and calls out as many others as possible#idk i've just found myself thinking about all this a lot lately cause#after getting really into bnha i noticed the way the (western) fandom acts currently they really do take away part of the fun for me!#while back in the day tumblr was THE platform that made media i consumed 200x more enjoyable for me /because of the fandoms/#so this has almost completely flipped around and it makes me sad ;-;#oh well... i'm prolly overthinking#and i'm not trying to say it's all negative of course!! i still have a ton of fun with the fandoms on here C:#if i didn't i wouldn't have stuck around this long!#it's just... bleh. i've had this kinda sour aftertaste in my mouth for a while <:I#dr#rant#i guess...

Hey Nico! How's everything? Hope you're doing fine. I've been a fan of your blog/replies/analysis for years, since 2017, I think, and sometimes I skim through your replies because we agree on basically everything about BNHA so it's really comforting to me coming here to your blog. I hope you still like this manga, re-reading some asks made me think that through the years your replies have gotten more and more uninterested, so I was guessing if you still like it? I hope so, it'd be (1/2)
(2/2) very sad to lose someone like you in this fandom 😭 anyway, I wanted to ask you something else too: I recall your disliking for Best Jeaniat, one of the things we both agree on. Did some of the latest scenes he had with Kacchan make you like him a little more? I'm... kinda 50/50. I appreciate that he's there taking care of Kacchan's corpse as much as he can, but... eh. That whole "I see you as an experiment" really stuck with me 🤨. What do you think? Wish you a great day!
if i seem disinterested i think it’s partially life getting in the way and partially me realizing i need to not burn myself out keeping up with fandom stuff and trying to have something to say all the time. not that i've lost my interest or that i don’t want to still do analysis but rather my thoughts about it would get too mixed up in discourse that sometimes it gets in the way of me just enjoying what i enjoy about it and generally when i do some kind of analysis post it’s either because i’ve been prompted by an ask or it’s in response to something i saw other people say but i’ve kept myself increasingly insulated from the fandom so i end up feeling like i don’t have much to say. and tbh sometimes i just get a little bored during big ensemble arcs like the war arcs lol BUT!! i assure you if i no longer had any interest in bnha i wouldn’t be bothering to keep up with the manga
now a bit of a rant to answer your question:
in the broad strokes of the story i'm impressed with how much compassion bakugou's character arc gets handled with. he's still responsible for his own actions of course but at the same time there's a lot of emphasis put into showing how much of his behavior and the things that happen to him are the result of how the adults around him have failed him and yet on a micro level so often are bakugou's feelings invalidated or played off as unreasonable for the sake of comedy or is adults disrespect for him glossed over for some cheap appeal to emotion
like that little bit in the middle of the paranormal liberation war arc where snapshots of deku, bakugou, and todoroki's families are shown and mitsuki's looking through a scrapbook of pictures of bakugou feels especially egregious to me. i in no way doubt the sincerity of her love for her son but it's just a teeny tiny bit difficult for me to care about their relationship when their one singular onscreen interaction involves her mistreating and belittling him, y'know?
when it comes to best jeanist, personally i'm still not over how he treated bakugou and i wish there was more acknowledgment of that but i can maybe take the whole hero name reveal as a sign that he understands he didn't Get bakugou and it's not like i'm mad that other characters care about bakugou's wellbeing lol but that being said, when the narrative tries to frame it like bakugou and best jeanist have some significant bond on par with other mentor/mentee relationships in the story it just feels hollow imo
TL;DR have my feelings toward best jeanist changed? not really lol

BnHA Chapter 311: Hand Gun
Previously on BnHA: Horikoshi was all “thinkin’ about dropping in some woke analogies of the very real and very presently relevant issue of racial profiling idk what do you guys think” and then shrugged and did it without waiting for an answer, and ngl it was a bit sudden, but I’m here for it. All Might was all “DEKU YOU NEED TO EAT” and Deku was all “OKAY” and took his hero bento and went to go stand dramatically on a tower in the rain whilst having some highly anticipated Vestige flashbacks. OFA II was all, “sup, I guess I’m not Kacchan... OR AM I,” and ngl I think he is?? Alternate universes anybody?? Hello??? But anyway, so OFA the First a.k.a. Yoichi was all “remember that time you guys rescued me from my evil brother and Two took my hand and we Had A Moment?”, and Two and Three were all “ahh yeah good times”, and it was very nice and very, very gay. The chapter ended with it being very unclear if Two and Three have actually lent their power to Deku yet or not lmao. Y’all need to get your shit together dudes.
Today on BnHA: Horikoshi is all “what if I gave a random bad guy a fucking tommy gun that shoots nails” and jesus christ calm down son. The Hawksquad, a.k.a. SQUAWK as per @hotchocolatier, are all “time to drive aimlessly around town acting like Deku has a restraining order on us because that’s literally the best plan to combat the League we could come up with,” and I have no further comment. Hawks is all “idk about you guys but I want to know more about AFO and Tomura’s whole deal” and I can’t remember the last time I identified so strongly with one of these characters. All Might is all, “[EXPLODES???]”, and the chapter ends with that mysterious hot girl from the Tartarus breakout being all “HELLO I CAN TURN INTO A GUN AND I LITERALLY DON’T GIVE A FUCK” and (1) WOW, and (2) IT’S TRUE, SHE CAN, AND SHE REALLY DOESN’T. GODDAMN.
(ETA: so this wholly escaped my notice on the first go, and also has nothing to do with the chapter itself, but I only just realized that this chapter was scanlated by a new group, TCB Scans. they actually did a very good job, and I’m curious if they’ve found a new RAW provider, because the quality this week is actually crazy good in comparison to what we’ve been dealing with for the past few months. I’m gonna have to get caught up on what exactly happened here lol.)
so what will it be this week? more Vestige antics? more of Sad Nomad Deku standing on buildings and pretending like he’s some cool aloof antihero, as if he could fool us when we all know his hero backpack is secretly stuffed full with his nerd diaries and the remnants of all the hero bentos that All Might keeps giving him?? or, just putting it out there, just a crazy thought, but you don’t suppose we might actually cut back to U.A.? mmm. side-eyes emoji
maaaaaan I’m starting to get tired of this trend of beginning chapters by dropping in on random power-tripping civilians and/or Shindou lol. just once can we get a chapter that opens with someone I actually give a fuck about
oh at least Endeavor is here
A WHAT SUPPORT ITEM!??! HOLY SHIT DDLKJSLFKJL
lol somehow that’s more terrifying than bullets for me?? like I’m fully aware that bullets will fuck you up way worse and that in real life nail guns probably don’t work like this AT ALL and only have a range of like... hold up let me just google... up to 100 to 150 m/s and distances of up to 500m wait WHAT
okay wait. hold up. like I was expecting google to tell me nail guns only shoot a few feet at most, and instead the first search result is some CDC blog article that’s “dispelling” the “””myth””” -- please note my repeated sarcastic quotation marks -- that nail guns can fire 1400 feet per second, by explaining that actually they can fire anywhere from 315 ft/sec to 1,295 ft/sec, and that “it is in the pneumatic nail gun user’s best interest to handle these tools as if they were a firearm despite having a lower velocity” dlkjdslkjflkl
SO THAT SCENE IN IRON MAN 3 WHERE TONY RAIDS A HOME DEPOT AND BUYS A BUNCH OF RANDOM TOOLS AND SHIT AND GOES ON TO STAGE A ONE-MAN INVASION OF AN INTERNATIONAL TERRORIST’S FLORIDA MANSION HQ IS ACTUALLY TRUE. YOU’RE TELLING ME THAT THE FILM “HOME ALONE” IS ACTUALLY A DOCUMENTARY. “the Discovery Channel television program “Mythbusters” compared the penetration capacity of an airborne projectile shot from a pneumatic framing nail gun to that of a 9mm hand gun” HELLO YES AND A MERRY “WHAT THE FUCK” TO YOU AS WELL
anyway, so. there’s apparently a reason why the Number One hero, who can burn people with the intensity of a sun going supernova, is hiding here behind this concrete support column making frowny faces. nope. nuh uh. he ain’t about that. I don’t blame you buddy
so now he’s barrel rolling out of his hiding place and setting this dude THE FUCK ON FIRE because HELL NO. BAD ENOUGH I HAD TO WATCH THAT FUCKING MUSHROOM EPISODE LAST WEEK! YOU TAKE THAT SHIT SOMEWHERE ELSE
LOL look at his face
I know the context is actually him being all “I know I’m responsible for basically everything that happened and so that’s why I’m so grim and serious about this mission to set things right piece by piece,” but in my mind this pissed-off face is 100% all because this dude tried to shoot his eye out with a nail gun. look at that. you made him go full flame face again. beard and all. protecting his face so that it can hopefully melt any stray nails that get too close. nope nope nope
good lord. so what’s up next. let me guess the guy fighting Best Jeanist has like an atomic chainsaw or some shit
lol nope we’re just cutting back to Hawks and Jeanist chilling in the Jesla after they’ve wrapped things up
Jeanist has got some serious Groot energy you guys jesus christ he’s like 12 feet tall
oh snap someone threw a pipe at him now
today is just the chapter of Endeavor being assaulted by random DIY tools I guess
I mean, I get why they’re pissed at him obviously; I would be too lol. but tbh I also don’t really understand the “get out of here we don’t want your help” attitude that all of these people suddenly seem to have?? like it if were me, I would be fucking DEMANDING for him and the other heroes to be working round the clock to fix their stupid mess. I mean who else is gonna do it?? it’s their mess, I sure don’t want to be the one to clean it up instead. anyways but whatever lol
oh shit?
so they haven’t dropped the whole “OFA secret potentially gets revealed to the world” thing yet after all. that makes sense I suppose, it did seem like that whole thing wound up playing out a bit too easily
anyway so yeah
the locals are definitely none too happy. well at least Dabi’s got something to be cheerful about I guess
so now we’re cutting to the interior of the Jesla and they’re chitchatting about the current investigation
oh wow this actually makes a bit of sense now. so there was a reason they were keeping their distance from Deku
please note that even in this abstract Endeavor’s-Mental-Image-Of-Him panel, Deku’s eyes still don’t have the light in them anymore :( my poor son
also ftr I still think using Deku as bait in this particular sense is the shittiest idea ever ngl. like sure, let’s let the sixteen-year-old run around battling miscellaneous escaped prison convicts while we stay several kilometers away ON PURPOSE despite the fact that you’re using him as bait to draw out the Big Bad, who just a reminder can destroy anything with a mere touch and who you were all basically helpless against. what exactly are you all planning to do if Tomura or one of the other League VIPs actually shows up to retrieve him?? are you even keeping tabs on him at all in real time?? jesus
(ETA: well that escalated quickly lol.)
Horikoshi is all of a sudden dropping whole pages of exposition here and I can’t be bothered to summarize this lol so just,
a big fat YES to what Jeanist said, though. that’s why imo they would have been better off laying a trap at U.A. rather than just wandering around out in the open. I assume they’re trying to cut their potential losses because U.A. is full of students (and civilians), but those students also happen to be more capable than pretty much anyone else in the manga at this point. and tbh they’re already in life-threatening danger regardless of how things play out from here on, so they might as well at least try to use the few advantages they have right now. U.A. is almost certainly going to come under siege at some point anyway, so they might as well prepare for it
lol I don’t think I’m explaining this very well because I don’t have the patience right now to break it down point by point like it really ought to be, so for now I’ll just say that imo “U.A. siege” stands a good chance of being the eventual endgame even now, and so this whole “Deku runs around being bait” arc is really just killing time until then lol. like and subscribe for more rambling nonsensical takes such as this. maybe next time I’ll even put it all into one single sentence for maximum meandering senior citizen rant value
well it’s nice that they’re finally talking about all of this I guess
we readers have known all of this for months now but this confirms the heroes are finally caught up. ALSO, Hawks is so fucking smart, as always. kinda wonder if things would have played out differently if All Might had let him in on the secret a bit earlier. probably that’s why Horikoshi made damn sure they didn’t find out until after the War arc lol
OH MY GOD YOOOOOO HAWKS OUT HERE ASKING THE REAL QUESTIONS
“anyone else wondering why AFO bothered to raise Tomura as his fake heir for fifteen years when he was secretly planning on taking over his body the whole time” YES, [raises hand] lmao Hawks where the hell were you when I was debating this “AFO is the final villain and Tomura is just his pawn” thing on multiple occasions over the past several years lol
lmao seeing them debate the metaphysics of OFA and all of its mystical bullshit is seriously surreal you guys
JEANIST HAVE YOU CHECKED OUT MY META TAG I HAVE WRITTEN SO MANY ESSAYS. I ACTUALLY WAS PLANNING ON WRITING ANOTHER ESSAY ABOUT THE THING THAT I’M PRETTY SURE HAWKS IS ABOUT TO BRING UP, BUT I NEVER GOT AROUND TO IT WHOOPS, BUT MAYBE I WILL NOW LOL LET’S SEE HOW IT GOES
yes!!
WHICH AFO FUCKING ENSURED HE WOULD BE BY LITERALLY PLANNING OUT EVERY LAST DETAIL OF HIS FAMILY TRAGEDY, FROM SECRETLY GIVING TENKO THE QUIRK TO MAKING SURE NO CIVILIANS OR HEROES WOULD HELP HIM UNTIL AFO FINALLY STEPPED IN. I’M 1000% CONVINCED THIS IS THE CASE YOU GUYS. NOT JUST BECAUSE I’M NOT A FAN OF “THE WORLD IS A FUNDAMENTALLY SHITTY PLACE, ACTUALLY” TAKES BECAUSE MISTER ROGERS TOLD ME TO ALWAYS LOOK FOR THE HELPERS, BUT ALSO BECAUSE IT LITERALLY JUST DOESN’T MAKE A LICK OF SENSE OTHERWISE. THEIR ENTIRE HOUSE CAVED IN FFS, YOU’RE TELLING ME NONE OF THE NEIGHBORS FUCKING OVERHEARD THAT SHIT AND WENT “UMMMMMMMMM” AND WENT TO SEE WHAT WAS GOING ON?? “DIDN’T THERE USED TO BE A HOUSE HERE, AND LIKE A WHOLE FAMILY, AND SHIT?”
LIKE I’M SORRY, BUT IT’S ONE THING TO SAY IT’S REALISTIC THAT NOT A SINGLE PERSON WOULD ATTEMPT TO HELP THE WANDERING TRAUMATIZED CHILD AFTERWARDS (WHICH I DISAGREE WITH AS WELL BUT AT LEAST THAT’S MORE SUBJECTIVE), AND IT’S A WHOLE OTHER THING TO ARGUE THAT IT’S REALISTIC THAT NO ONE WOULD BE FUCKING NOSY. LIKE THAT’S A WHOLE DIFFERENT LEVEL OF “THAT’S NOT HOW ANY OF THIS WORKS” ENTIRELY LOL. anyway tl;dr AFO is a piece of shit and Tomura’s entire worldview is based on a magnificently intricate and savagely cruel lie more at 11
anyway so after all that ranting it looks like that wasn’t even what Hawks was talking about after all lol. I just went off for absolutely no reason lol oh well. instead it seems that Hawks is suggesting that Tomura’s carefully cultivated hatred might not yet have actually reached “can defeat OFA” levels even after all of that trauma. interesting!
don’t mind me, I’m just sitting here while my brain furiously scrambles to put together all the parallels between Hawks and Tomura that it never noticed before until exactly this second. like I’m not even sure that was the intent here at all (I need to check out another translation or two lol), but regardless my mind decided that now would be the perfect time to make the connection between these two twenty-somethings who both had horrific childhoods and spent years being molded by their respective manipulative guardians, and developed eerily similar “laugh at everything because what else can you do” coping mechanisms to deal with it all hmmmmm
anyway so they were talking more about their strategy, but now all of a sudden Jeanist’s phone is beeping??
AND NOW WE’RE CUTTING AWAY TO ALL MIGHT AND HIS MIGHTMOBILE DAMMIT so that means the call to Jeanist was actually something important then!! WAS IT BAKUGOU OMG. DOES YOUR INTERN WANT A WORD FFFKLFSJK please it’s been so long I just need a little crumb or two to tide me over lmao have mercy
anyway so All Might’s following the GPS tracking device he’s apparently got planted on Deku (which in my conspiracy headcanons he’s actually had for a long time now, like since before DvK2 lol because HOW ELSE WOULD HAVE HAVE KNOWN THAT THEY WERE FIGHTING EACH OTHER IN GROUND BETA, PEOPLE) and thinking angsty thoughts about Deku’s sucky life
AND NOW ALL MIGHT’S PHONE IS RINGING TOO?? BAKUGOU HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE YOU CALLING. “WHERE ARE YOU HIDING THE NERD GODDAMMIT”
OMG
lol is he under attack or is he just finally giving All Might the slip like we all know he SECRETLY PLANNED TO ALL ALONG oh my poor dumb angstmuffin
OMG AHHHHHHH WHAT
DID ALL MIGHT JUST FUCKING DIE LMAO NO OF COURSE NOT, BUT WHAT
WHAT IS HAPPENING OMG
THE FUCK IS THAT. AT LEAST IT’S NOT A NAIL
OH IT’S A SPEAKER!! OMG DID THEY TAKE ALL MIGHT HOSTAGE
“THEY’RE HERE” WELP, TIME TO SEE JUST HOW SHITTY THIS SHITTY PLAN REALLY IS LOL
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
SHE!!!!
omg. AND OVERHAUL JUST CHILLING THERE IN THE BACKGROUND ALL “WHAT DO YOU EVEN WANT ME TO DO I’VE GOT NO FUCKING ARMS” YEAH GOOD RIDDANCE LOL
DOES THIS GIRL HAVE ONE GIANT LEG OR WHAT, LIKE WHAT’S THE DEAL HERE
-- HOLD UP WAIT, THE GUN IS HER ARM, HOLY SHIT SHE CAN TURN INTO A GUN -- OKAY HOLD UP BECAUSE I NEED TO SAY THAT IN BIGGER TEXT BECAUSE !!!!
YOU GUYS, THE COOL TARTARUS GIRL IS BACK AND HER QUIRK IS “CAN TURN INTO A FUCKING GUN.” THIS IS NOT A DRILL!! MY BEST GIRL MT. GUN IS FINALLY BACK ON THE SCENE WITH HER QUIRK “CAN DO ANYTHING A GUN CAN DO.” “I HEARD Y’ALL WENT AND NAMED ONE OF YOUR HEROES ‘GUNHEAD’ EVEN THOUGH HIS HEAD ISN’T EVEN A GUN, LIKE WTF IS UP WITH THAT LET ME SHOW YOU HOW IT’S DONE” DANG OKAY
lmao only fifteen pages this week, and STILL NO KACCHAN (THEN WHO WAS PHONE!!!), but man I don’t even care because finally we’ve got a cliffhanger that’s actually deserving of being a cliffhanger! hot dog. okay then

God i agree so much, you can't go 2 steps in bnha ao3 tag without running into all might bashing like my man is kind he didn't deserve this shit especially because it's done to place Aizawa "stinky garbage teacher man" on a pedestal
DUDE i could go on a fucking rant about and y'know what? I will.
Apologies for the chunks of text thata re very ramble-y.
It seems like a lot of hatred of Yagi stems from two things: his words to Izuku in s1e1, and his bad teaching. For the latter, I think that's bullshit because in my interpretation, Yagi is not quirkist. People forget that he was fuckin quirkless himself, and sure, his generation wasn't as discriminatory but he presumably went through the same things as Izuku. And keep in mind, Yagi regards himself as helpless/useless without his quirk (see: the Vigilante Arc in the manga), as to him it's the only reason he could be a hero. Furthermore, even with the most powerful quirk, he still got his ass beat by AFO. So when a quirkless Izuku asks him if he can be a hero, it's not that he hates quirkless people, or that he is discriminatory, it's that Yagi own insecurities dictate that he himself couldn't be a hero without a quirk. Yagi is a victim of the system that discriminates against quirkless people, as well as a victim of his own trauma.
And with the former point, I see a lot of points that Yagi sucks because he's a bad teacher and didn't stop Izuku from breaking himself. Now, he's not an amazing teacher, but jfc characters can have flaws, and ultimately he's well meaning. But the sheer hypocrisy I see when people write Aizawa as this amazing teacher when he did fuck all for Izuku too. Aizawa let Izuku break himself and never helped, even though he threatened Izuku on the first day. (And speaking of the first day, there's no way Aizawa didn't rig the QAT. Izuku canonically can lift a whole ass fridge with Yagi on top with 100% quirkless, and is. comparatively fit. There's no way people like Hagakure, Jiro, Kaminari, Koda, etc. etc. would beat him in everything enough for him to be last place.) Furthermore, Aizawa had to know Izuku only just got his quirk (I believe that the thing that he doesn't check student files is completely fanon, but correct me if I'm wrong) and did nothing, but gets put on a pedestal! And that's hypocritical. Aizawa let Bakugo harass Izuku, didn't notice Mineta's harassment, didn't help Kaminari utilise his quirk to stop him from shocking himself, etc. etc. And I think that Aizawa is a product of a bystander society but y'all, how can he be put on a pedestal and Yagi bashed when he's a shit teacher too??
Also, if there was a quirkless person in the hero course, what's the chance Aizawa would have expelled them? Because tbh, there's probably a chance that he would.
Also, don't get me started on the people who think Yagi 'groomed' Izuku like wtf. If that's the case, then doesn't that mean Aizawa groomed Shinso? I could also talk a lot abt shinso because a lot of the stuff about him is completely fanon and everyone likes to woobify him, but that's an ask for another day. How people can bash Yagi, but have a Bakugo redemption, parental Aizawa, good friend Shinso, etc. is just, eh. Like I get it, but eh.
And honestly, to an extent I get it. People love found family. Hell, I'm a massive fan of Irondad, Dadmight, and so many other things like that. And to an extent Dadzawa isn't bad! But to bash Yagi to make Aizawa seem like a better person? Nah. They're both heavily flawed characters, and ignoring one's flaws and exacerbating the other's just feels hypocritical.
Honestly, at this point I can't really read any Dadzawa fics or Quirkless Izuku fics because of the rampant Yagi bashing. It's just, ugh. I can't wait until the Vigilante arc is animated, so that anime-onlys have to see that Yagi and Izuku's relationship is so much more that what they describe.
But hell, this is the MHA fandom. Critical analysis means fuck all here. But each to their own.
Ultimately, MHA is a flawed world, where everyone is a victim of societal bias and inherent discrimination. No one character is exempt from this. Not Yagi, not Aizawa, not anyone else. But everyone is allowed to have their own interpretation.
#fuck this was a long one#yeah I have Feelings(tm)#correct me if I'm wrong in any of these points#ask#anon#bnha#mha#discourse#not vld

I highkey loved clamp school detectives and clamp school defenders but i only had access to 2 books in a queensland library one afternoon, and have had to rely on my memory of it since.
So if you ever wanna rant/rave about either of them i will eagarly read it.
Also i was super excited when they picked up legal drug again (p sure legal drug was the reason my sister got into hello kitty).
oh holy shit! legal drug! i forgot about that. it's been a big while since i've read it, but i remember really enjoying that one. (and i think wish shopkeeper watanuki showed up in that one as well?? or was that just kobato? i think he showed up in kobato. either way it's always nice to see him)
i'm not actually amazing about putting thoughts into words tbh except that i,,, am tired of always talking about bnha no matter how much i love my fics for it. and i've always been super into anything clamp so just talking about it is fun, though i don't know much about what i'd say.
clamp school defenders is completely ridiculous and just. fun. it's a fun series. i enjoy it. maybe not quite as much as i enjoy other clamp works, but it is still dear to me.
clamp school detectives is also fun but somehow more. maybe it's the characters?? the trio is so iconic and it's fun to see them. i love nokoru so much and i'd give my life for him. i guess it's also pretty much a breath of fresh air to think about after spending so long reading x/1999. though i guess in relation to x/1999 you're of course forced to think about the fact that it's sest in the same universe, just in the future. and that's like (': oh. i guess the clamp school detectives are gonna die horribly then huh. fuck you clamp.
thankfully it went on hiatus i guess. i wouldn't want to see those three die. i do wonder about their dynamic as adults tho. like do suoh and nokoru know that akira is a phantom thief? is he still getting up to that? and what about duklyon? what are those guys doing in x/1999 when the world is ending? aliens were a thing in duklyon and that's so insane to think about in relation to the fact that this one universe is: duklyon, clamp school detectives, man of many faces, tokyo babylon, and x/1999 all wrapped up in one.
and actually! mentioning tokyo babylon. i need to bring up the fact that i swear i read somewhere that subaru attended the same class as the duklyon characters! like holy shit these guys were classmates. and i don't think subaru even knew that clamp campus was being taken over by aliens all the time.
like imagine x/1999 and imagine you're subaru and the worlds ending and imonoyama nokoru is hanging out with you guys a little bit because of that and he's like lmao remember when the school was being taken over by aliens everyday and you're like NO. and like. this is probably common knowledge. like,, imagine that everyone knows BUT subaru, because he was always busy. and you know it just makes me go a little crazy thinking about that. aliens technically exist in the x/1999-verse. of course they do.
idk if you've actually read x/1999 or tokyo babylon - my guess is no because you only mentioned the clamp school series and legal drug - but the implications of the clamp multiverse are far reaching.

Hello! I’m not sure who you take requests for, but could I request Midoriya, Uraraka, and Kirishima with an s/o who they think is cheating on them but it turns out they were just playing an otome game? If it’s not too much? Have a wonderful evening!
BNHA CHARACTERS WHEN THEY THINK YOUR CHEATING (but it’s just an otome game)
I accept almost anybody from BNHA, except a fewwww (Overhaul, Endeavor, Kurogiri, that’s probably it tbh) anyways thank you for the requesfksnsksk!
MIDORIYA
Midoriya was on his way to your dorm, excited to finally spend some time with you after a few weeks because he had extensive training with All Might. He was right in front of your door, and almost entered, and right when he cracked the door he heard,
“He’s so cute! Ugh, yes I would love to go out with you!” Izuku’s breath hitched.
You heard a creak and turned to see Midoriya’s head peeking through the door, with his eyebrows furrowed. You smiled and waved,
“Hey Midoriya! I was waiting for you, I was thinking today we could-
“Why didn’t you tell me?” Your eyes faltered, taken aback at his rough tone.
“Tell you...what exactly? Was Bakugo talking about me again? Everytime that loser opens his mouth I swear-
“IF YOU DIDN’T LIKE ME ANYMORE JUST TELL ME. DON’T- don’t lead me on like some lovesick dog.” He shouted, tears ready to fall at any second. You looked at him mouth wide open.
“Izuku, I do like you? I love you quite a lot that’s why I’m dating you, what’s-what’s the problem?” You cried, confused at why he was looking so angry with you.
“I heard you! Calling- WHOEVER THAT WAS CUTE, AND SAYING YOU WOULD GO OUT WITH THEM! H-HOW COULD YOU?” He sputtered out, wiping the tears out of his eyes with an aggressive fist. You looked at him and a slight grin began to grow. You walked over to him.
“You mean...this guy right here?” You say as you lift up your phone to show some animated boy on your screen, with the words ‘I will pick you up at 8, my love’ showing up from a speech bubble. Midoriya stepped back, processing what he had just read.
“S-so...you’re not cheating on me?” He said with big eyes.
“No, it’s just an otome game baby, I could and frankly would never. I love you too much.” You whispered, running your hand through the hair on the back of his head and he hugged you.
“Oh...I’m sorry baby, I didn’t realize-
“It’s alright. Let’s just go lay down yeah? I found this awesome movie I think we would like!”
Just like that, Midoriya was back to being your lovesick puppy. Was there something wrong with that?
URARAKA
Uraraka wasn’t one to be too nervous about cheating. I mean, you were hers. Who was there that would even make you think about being whisked away from the bond that you two had? Apparently, there was somebody. And apparently, you didn’t mind.
Uraraka was walking out of the school, ready to go home and get all of her homework over with. Present Mic had no mercy for the kids of 1-A. As she walked she saw you, beautiful you, out of the corner of her eye.
“Yeah, he’s the best! I can’t believe how flirtatious he is though...not that I mind” you say as your friends laugh and giggle with you. Uraraka covers her mouth, and for a second she almost thinks about ignoring it.
You and her had something special. She knew it. You knew it. So what was it that she had done that had made you resort to somebody else? Was this her fault? Either way, maybe if she ignored it and tried to be a little better for you, there would be no reason to cheat. But that thought was quickly pushed away as Ochako knew her worth. She stomped over to your group and pulled you away by your bag.
“Woah! Ochako what’s wrong with you? I thought you were going to go home and do Present Mic’s 27-inch tall packet?” You laughed as you faced her. But she couldn’t find it in her to laugh. She couldn’t even find it in her to look at you, so she chose her oh so boring shoes.
“So, who is it.” She states, biting her tongue. Her heart was shattering, but what could she do?
“Who is...who? Did I miss something or are you having short term memory loss.” You joked, smiling at her.
“STOP JOKING AROUND. JUST- JUST TELL ME WHO IT IS AND WE CAN BREAK UP AND I CAN LEAVE. PLEASE.” She yelled, voice cracking aggressively. You stepped back, your smile dropping in an instant.
“Ochako, I don’t know who told you what, and I don’t know what you think you’ve figured out, but I don’t know who you’re talking about or what you mean.” You explain slowly, trying to analyze her anger.
“I heard you. I heard you talking about some stupid guy and how flirty he is and all that and well...I’m not mad...I could never be mad at you. But please, don’t push me to the sidelines.” She begged, tears falling vigorously. Your eyes widened as she spoke. She finally looked at you and seeing her eyes as red as they were broke you the most.
“Ochako...there is no boy. I could never, I would never want to. We’re us remember? There’s nobody out there who could take me away from you but...I think I know what you meant” You said as you held up your phone. She saw the boy on the screen giving you a despicable smirk and the relief washed off her face and she relaxed in front of your intense love-filled eyes. This was all some big misunderstanding. And her sweetheart was just playing some stupid game. And the boy- wasn’t real. She grabbed you arm and pulled you into her.
“I love you. I love you so, so much. Never leave me.” She whispers.
“Where would I find anyone better?”
KIRISHIMA
Kirishima was the type who could be insecure but would never tell you about it. To project his problems and insecurities onto you would be rude of him. They’re his problems, not yours. However today, all would be set free.
Eijiro was walking past your lunch table to go and get some yogurt. Usually you two would sit together every other day because you liked to interact with all other members of the class so you usually sat with a somebody else on days like today. And as you sat with Mina, Uraraka, and Tsuyu, Kirishima heard you say something that could have made him pass away on the spot,
“Guys I’m telling you she’s so hot. Like please come get me, she even asked me out!” You screeched with a grin as the other girls smiled back.
“And what did you say to her?” Mina giggled.
“YES! WHAT WOULD YOU SAY MINA!” You said as you jokingly rolled your eyes. “If God requests I take the opportunity” you all laughed and as you saw Kiri out of the edge of your eye you gave him a smile. The sweetest smile, God he was in love with you. But...did you feel the same? He decided that he didn’t want to make a scene and waved back at you with the best smile he could manage.
Later on that day as Kirishima sat in your room, as you doodled in your notebook he glanced at you and decided to bring up the dreadful fact. That you didn’t want him anymore.
“So what did I do.” Eijiro whispered. It was so quiet but since there was no noise you heard it easily. You looked up at him confused.
“What?” You asked, your eyebrow raising.
“What did I do. To make you find somebody else?” He asked, looking away from you. Eijiro knew that if he looked at you he would cave. He would always cave for you.
“I haven’t found somebody else? I’m not too sure who told you that but-
“STOP LYING. I HEARD IT. I HEARD YOU. TALKING ABOUT SOME GIRL AND HOW SHE ASKED YOU OUT. I KNOW I’M NOT PERFECT, AND I KNOW I AM NOT AS SMART, OR AS ATTRACTIVE AS OTHER PEOPLE BUT I THOUGHT- I THOUGHT YOU COULD LOOK PAST THAT. I THOUGHT YOU DID LOOK PAST THAT.” He yelled, his fists clenching and unclenching when the pain became too much. You couldn’t even answer at first but the first thing you could think was..is that really how he saw himself? Not good enough?
“Eiji...what do you mean you’re not as smart or attractive? Who- where did you even get that from?” You choked out as tears began to build. You couldn’t help it, yelling was never something you could take.
“Does it matter?” He spat.
“Yes! God yes it does. Because Eiji you are the best thing that has ever happened to me. You are incredibly smart when it comes to hero work, why would I care about some test grade made by old people with no life? And handsome...Kirishima you are so handsome that I stare at you everyday and wonder how you wanted me. You could have anybody, with your personality, your looks, and your talent combined what could I give you? Seeing you now...it hurts Eiji. I love you, you will always be more than enough for me.” You sputtered out. You tried moving closer but he moved away from you once again as tears fell down your eyes and built up in his.
“Well obviously I wasn’t enough because you found somebody else.” He ranted as you shook your head.
“No no no, Kiri I didn’t find anybody I was talking about some otome game I found! There is nobody else sweetheart- there could never be anybody else.” You whispered as you tried one last time to move closer. And Kirishima didn’t move.
“Really? There is nobody else? You still...you still love me?” He cheered as he hugged you tight, and put his head in your neck as you two sat there in a peaceful embrace.
“Of course not. I have you. Everything I need, and so, so much more. I love you Kiri.” You whispered as you kissed his cheek.
“I love you. Until the end of time.” Lord knows Kiri would love you even after that.
FIN
Okayyyy that was my first request jesus christ- I tried to kinda give the reader different personalities because I don’t really like it when people make all their readers have the same personality like- there are so many people in the world! Anyways I think I need to make a page on what I will and will not write but the list is quite open. Platonic, romantic, up to 5 people for a headcannon, and no smut...That’s simple right? (no.)
Anyways thank you all for reading!!! <3

I wonder if some people forget that My Hero Academia does not take place in America nor during this time period.
Its so silly to compere what is happening in bnha rn n what is happening in america at large, aside from it being completely tone deaf and insensitive. Cops in america are killing marginilized groups for no other reason then racisam and prejudice. Bnha heroes are REACTING to villain attacks and civillian endangerment. Its apples and oranges. Yes heroes are using force you know why? Its not cuz police brutality its cuz a terrorist showed up with nukes. Literally what else are they supposed to do but minimize the damege as quickly as possible and that wont happen if they let shigaraki run around destroying things while they wring their hands and ask him about his feelings and his sad backstory. You take that motherfucker down and once his quirk is neutralized THAN maybe you can listen safely but war ground really isnt the time for that. Sometimes you just gotta punch a bastard in the face god knows where we would be as a society if every time someone threatend genocide we went but guys ;^; hes saaaaaad.
Just because ur sad dont mean u can kill other people Sweetie go get sum fuckin therapy.
And as you said before heroes really arent to blame for most of the league. Like hero systhem is to blame for Dabi and MAYBE shigaraki tho im still not tottally convinced afo hadnt messed with that whole sittuation. Heroes have a very specific role in society.
Villains ATTACK.
Heroes REACT.
They arent really there to snip the start of villany in the bud, that would more fall on social workers, therapists, school systhems etc etc who should be recognizing signs of people falling through the net and trying to prevent it. Now there is a point to be made about society relying on heroes too much and therefor concentrating more on reacting rather then preventing but that is nit directly heroes fault and is something that needs to be adressed on a wider scale
^^^ Exactly!
The situations are different which is why I feel it’s disingenuous to compare them.
There’s also the fact that BNHA is still a battle manga and it would be strange not to see fighting in some way or form so even those complaints seem to fall flat.
#also like you said it's action adventure#tbh MHA heroes are more politically correct than Marvel heroes#and I don't see people hating on Marvel#(didn't the Marvel heroes kill a bunch of aliens soldiers in the avengers movies or something? I don't remember I haven't seen them all#i haven't seen a Marvel movie in years#because MHA was just so much better and richer#but that's another rant for another time sorry#I don't count SpiderVerse as Marvel because Sony made it instead of Disney#and it was really really really good#and probably better than all the avengers movies combined#bnha spoilers#mha spoilers
