Quick s7 premiere thoughts

Loved the new episode, I sure wasn't ready for Afomura becoming a thing so soon, like that scene is still... that

But otherwise wow

also a quick thank you for this scene having THIS track (a bit off from the original version) and voices of both AFO and Tomura mixing in places there

to other things

little dangerous hand man

I'm in love with the ending... "Believe" and "Sketch" and now this one are like a Holy Trinity of Villain connected endings and this one FEELS like it belongs to MVA or something like that WAY MORE than the ED version of Believe did, even if the song was directly connected to Tomura and Izuku via text

that's just my "I want THIS SPECIFIC WAY" of wishing an ED was and I got what I wanted in a way with everyone from the LoV having their moment to shine (from the current arc aside from Compress) - so Spinner, Toga, Dabi and Tomura all have that. IN BOTH ED and OP

and then OP is like

this

so yeah, happy s7 day

Propaganda

Finn Mertens:

- They often times affirm that they're a boy. Obviously can be read as in a trans boy way or in an overcompensating trans girl/nonbinary way

- Is VERY averse to anything feminine being applied to them. Again, either a over compensating trans boy or an overcompensating trans girl/nonbinary

- In past memories or recordings Finn is referred to with he/him. Obviously this is probably in refrence to AGAB, but as a magic world there's definetly some spell that will change all past instances of someone being referred to/talked about to line up with new pronouns

Bob:

- It’s funny

- They’re probably doing a lot of fun things with gender we just wouldn’t get

- This thing isn’t cis they probably don’t even know what that means

- They don’t even understand how other people divide genders why would they care to only have one

[man-monsters-and-aliens]

Heyy! I love your blog, and I wanted to ask - do you have any headcannons about the Aliens in MvA? For me Sta'abi seems like a Lesbian...

gaww I'm happy to hear! gosh headcanons are so hard for me, apologies in advance that this is all over the place!!

hmm since it's pride, for fun I'd say Susan & Link are bi, Doc is a transman & aromantic or gay, Bob is nonbinary & pan ace

Coverton is either gay or demi aroace, Sqweep is a nonbinary (trans?)girl & ace lesbian, Sta'abi is pan demisexual, although I'm never set on labeling them but that's my idea!

oh and Gallaxhar is ace, Derek is bi (probably closeted)

‌the monster agents have their own private island where they live work free, nicknamed "Monster Beach"

Susan, ‌Doc, Link, & Bob have separate living spaces, but they share the same (beach) house. There are 3 floors and 1 ground floor, which extends to Susan's area that is the majority of the entire building. There's a lab/garage for Doc's projects just off the main residence, but the real works are at Area 5X. ‌Butterfly sleeps in a cavern of the cove behind a waterfall curtain.

‌Link has a driving license, a piloting licence, and a fishing licence and soon a licence to kill yes he has a car it's his 2nd baby

Link deserves a stuffed animal collection I think, but of course, his no. 1 will always be the rabbit, and they're all grouped on his heating pad rock thing

‌Susan video calls her parents weekly, tries to visit at least once a month but its more of whenever she can

‌Doc & Megamind are buddies. Although when the agents first met Megs it was a monsters vs alien situation (or monsters vs megamind hehe)

‌Doc's cockroach research contributed to the development of adding longevity to the average human which explains why Monger can be 90 and look like that, a less mad science former partner of his is responsible for this

‌there's an international Antarctic base that holds alien tech from around the globe (or at least what isn't "important" in each country's respective secret governments), these are mostly big and useless other than for study, an alien junkyard really

‌not sure how this would happen but I like the idea of Derek occasionally covering live news of the agents at work so a running gag is him getting splashed, slimed, dusted, swarmed, and such

Derek must have majored in meteorology, so there has to be something there. it's a special interest in weather and environmental sciences, but he'd avoid ever being called a nerd so it isn't that well known. he also had a hobby in photography, then wanted to be in front of the camera instead

‌MVA takes place in the same universe as Megamind, The Croods, How To Train Your Dragon, Rise Of The Guardians, Home, and Abominable (Shrek is canonically fictional, so dreamworksception? implying live action Shrek actually)

‌Link's species, the "aquappe", are not directly related to homo sapiens, but one of the cousin's ancestors (homo erectus?). I like to think their species evolutionary process was very back and forth (like a whale), but eventually became modern day mermaids. Like apes and whales they sing, but Link's adjustment to speaking might have affected his vocal cords. He still likes to sing, just shy about it like in the karaoke music party.

‌Link's first language is sign, which he learnt from Monger and few others, he learned proper English from Doc & TV

‌Bob also learned from TV, and Monger talked to him a lot

Bob's consumption/absorption of any material helps him regulate his mass. He floats on saltwater but will eventually break down after a very long period of time.

‌Monger has back scars from asserting his dominance over Link, an accidental acid burn from feeding Bob, and a matching chemical burn with Doc after he showed off one of his inventions

before Area 5X, Monger hunted monsters under an alias, although he was unsuccessful because it turned into a monster romance on at least 2 separate occasions

Tomura Shigaraki 's abuse and neglect under All for One

I've decided to make this post due to the fact AFO's abuse towards Tomura is often ignored and even denied, so I'll be bringing a collection of scenes that prove he was being severally neglected during the 15 years he lived with AFO

1- Malnourishment and Underweight

At the beginning of the story Tomura used to be very skinny, his spine visible, very accentuated collar bones.

We can't see if his ribcages are exposed too since he's always dressed, but we can tell he is abnormally skinny and thin.

Some theorize AFO's purposefully keeps him in this state so he's more weak and frail similar to Yoichi. Or so it adds to his tiredness and numbness.

He's also been shown randomly struggling before (it could've been the aftershock of Stain attack, i don't know)

2- Lack of hygiene

He literally lives in pure filth, trash bags, old soda cans, paper, boxes, packages of food that seems ordered other than homemade, it lingers all over his floor, he is clearly a hoarder

It's completely different of the kept and clean bar, and now before you say "That's Tomura's responsibility, he's an adult he should clean it himself!" just think for a minute, if you had a son, that you see as your heir, and bets on their future so much,If you truly cared about them and saw they felt into a hoarder mindset, wouldn't you at least help?

Why not even Kurogiri cleans if Tomura was being cared by him? This clearly is intentional neglect, specially to keep his mood constantly down.

3 - His teeth

Tomura canonically has crooked teeth (compare his teeth to the other's in the jump festa art), cavities or at least what looks like plaques or dirt all over his teeth.

For someone raised by someone as filthy rich as AFO, he should've had access to dental care

4- Shaggy hair

His hair looks un-brushed, shaggy and dirty, which had no reason for before MVA when he became homeless, so why even at the start? How long has he taken a bath or a shower?

Look at the blatant difference in this scene after he showered at the PLF mansion

5- Unkept, ragged and broken nails

despite his hands also being very skinny, his nails are also all rough and broken Now, I know Tomura isn't a kid to have someone cut his nails for him, but this implies he was never teached how to take care for himself.

Besides of course his clear symptoms of depression and suicidal idealism, which, are very obvious, All for One IS neglecting Tomura by keeping him in that state /knowing/ he isn't being capable of taking care of himself.

6- His bedroom

First of all: No windows

Second, notice how empty it used to be, he had nothing but a bed and a desk, but right as he committed his first murder he started to receive toys, AFO is lovebombing and manipulating him to kill more

7- The obvious neglect to his pain

Notice how every time Tomura panics or is even wounded, he is just ignored and left on the floor bleeding out, puking or writhing.

Which uh- it isn't normal to watch your kid writhe in the floor while smiling and monologuing

8- 24/7 Surveillance and lack of privacy

There are cameras everywhere, AFO spends most of the time watching Tomura, even in his own bedroom, and even talks to him, Tomura probably hasn't had any privacy ever since he was 5

Which is a sign of abuse and control

His entire childhood from 5 to 20 is often relatable for people who grew in cult like environments, and homeschooled children who grew under controlling parents, despite the abuse not being as "obvious" since AFO never directly physically hurt him, the neglect and psychological torture is still there, that and more all the manipulation, gaslighting and grooming (think of Mother Gothel from Tangled as an example of this type of abuser)

By the way, talking about it

9- Gaslighting

"but wasn't /you/ who desired my power?"

The entire body possession plot is a clear evidence AFO never saw Tomura as anything other than a toy to play with, the same way he saw Yoichi, but so many people say the possession was a retcon because "early afo cleared saw him as his heir, he even said it's all for him!"

Well, argue with the literal "he's the next me", while he is.... weirdly caressing the screen while he watches his kid with no privacy- 100% creep behavior

10- AFO's bizzare behavior towards Tomura

The way All for One's hands are often shown caressing him or encasing him somehow, which yeah, it's part of the symbology of Tomura's character (hands that can both hurt and save)

But knowing AFO represents /hurt/ and, you know, i'ts kinda weird to caress the kid you kidnaped off the streets like that-

Cuz yes! Picking kids from the street even if they are orphan is illegal!! You should take them to a police station instead :D

Tomura was KIDNAPED by AFO, not saved.

11- Proof Tomura doesn't /feel/ saved

During his fight against Bakugou, when he sees him being helped, besides being "broken" he starts to spiral on "why no one saved me even before i was broken?"

The visual including the granny that ignored him on the streets

AFO broke him.

He recurrently thinks back to when he was on the streets, even though he was already traumatized, and had already killed his family, he still had /hope/ he ADMITS he believes he could've been different if it wasn't for AFO

If AFO had truly saved him,he wouldn't think like this

12- AFO gifting Tomura the corpses of his family to intentionally keep him nauseated, uncomfortable and traumatized, so he never heals

Besides their weird placements- On a kid. the gangster's hands being in his chest...

13-AFO's intentional desire for Tomura's discomfort

If this entire thread didn't make it obvious already, All for One benefits of Tomura's tiredness, ill feelings, nausea, depression and suicidal mindset, and over all physical and psychological discomfort

This ensures he's submissive to his manipulations and orders, keep him feeling hatred and anger due to constant overwhelming feelings and makes it harder for him to think of why AFO does all of it at all.

I could go even deeper than this about it, but i've reached thread limit and am lazy, so I hope you enjoyed this thread!

Thank you for reading

Quirks and MHA society

Throughout the manga there is this reoccurring theme of people not being able to use and control their quirks and the quirk system being broken but honestly this plot point never really goes anywhere in my opinion or if it is used it's not used properly and never reaches it's fullest potential.

Like we see people break the law a bunch of times by using their quirks illegally and we see people state that they cannot control their quirks but nothing is done about it. We never see people arrested for quirk use unless said quirk use harms people.

If it's illegal to use your quirk then how is it that you have middle schoolers freely using their quirks in school or how normal members of the public use their quirks? Also what does this mean for people born with a heteromorphic quirk? Is part of the reason they're discriminated because they can't turn if their quirks or is it because so heteromorphic quirks make the user look more alien and less human? The government in MHA doesn't seem to be very strict about quirk use laws but states that it is (hori failing in show don't tell again🤷‍♀️)

What about people whose quirks are dangerous if they don't release it? What do they do? Do they just have to suffer or does the MHA government have a facility where people can safely release their quirk? This doesn't seem likely considering that izuku, ochako, Katsuki and miriko ran into someone who they(miriko and bakugo)deemed a villain for not being able to control his quirk. This case is treated as a one off incident but it really isn't. If one person has a quirk like that then that means so many other civilians do and they could of been pushed into villainy due to it. Hori establishes that the MHA universe lacks establishments that help people discharge/release or deal with their quirk but he never outright does anything with this plot point (it's mainly used to justify characters actions or villainy)

Horikoshi also introduces the half baked idea that quirks can influence ones personality and desires. This idea is introduced mainly in the MVA arc to ig justify characters (like toga and tomuras) actions and behaviours. I think it could of been a good idea if characters end up acting similarly or develop similar traits that come from their quirk however as I mentioned before the idea is half baked. Toga having an interest/craving in blood because thats how her quirk works makes sense but it's not heavily established. When it comes to toga we get mentions of how broken the quirk counselling system is and how instead of helping her to deal with a quirk that makes her have such a strong fascination and affection to blood it only made her suppress the urges until she went off the rails into full insanity. When it comes to tomura this idea is only used as an excuse (almost) for his actions, his quirk is used to demonise him and make him more of this completely psycho villain who loves to destroy things because that's his nature?!? When it really isn't.

Quirk counselling is a plot point with so much wasted potential. Like how did quirk counselling work? Was it a legal requirement or was it recommended? Did it actually help some people by helping kids understand their quirks, help them with control, offer any support equipment if needed to deal with the quirk and teach children morals? It seems like people with ordinary common quirks benefit more from the system then people with unique quirks that have unique side effects. We are told that toga's quirk counselling was full of adults not understanding and telling her that she is a weird psycho who is obsessed with blood instead of actually helping her. We see curious herself admit that there are many problems with the quirk counselling system and how it only benefited people with certain types of quirks and how it was basically a place teaching and breeding children to learn "right" and "wrong".

We see the quirk counselling system fail but it's never addressed. MHA chapter 22 shows how people with powerful or uncontrollable quirks tend to be failed by the system just like how toga and tomuras were. Eri is a special case you can't even know if she is just being trained or if she attends general counselling because in all truth we aren't told. Eri also faces the same problem where she can't have too much build up for her quirk or it will hurt her so shouldn't MHA dive deeper into the idea of quirk counselling and people not being able to control their quirks. Heck you even have all might state that he has noticed a lot of people can't control their quirks which brings the question is quirk counselling only for young people in elementary school and not for older people because people like midoriya who had a quirk in his teenage years was never forced to do any quirk counselling by the government?!?!?!?

Overall, in my opinion quirks in MHA is a wasted potential of a plot point and topic. MHA fails to truly delve and dig deep into topics like how the government fails in providing help with quirk counselling or establishments that help people deal with their quirks, or how less people know how to control their quirks being a result for the quickly failing system or how badly the law is reinforced . These ideas intertwining with quirk inequality and how it affects peoples day to day life could of all been interesting points to explore.

[super-paper]

What was the point of Chapter 419 with AFO giving Tomura decay and being involved in his life since he was born, besides generating AFO is behind everything and Kotaro gay affair memes?

I still believe Hori could have pulled this off if he hadn't veered completely off course after 419 because a LOT of Tenko's (and AFO's) arc revolves around the concepts of "identity" and fantasy vs reality (Like, just scratching the surface: AFO attempting to escape from his reality through fantasy, Tenko angrily attempting to pull away the curtain of fantasy and expose the cruel reality of their world. AFO using "reality" as his source of power by claiming its victims for himself, Tenko using "fantasy" as his power by offering those same victims a dream and the promise of an "escape" from their painful reality. "Shigaraki Tomura" as the fictional construct that both AFO and Tenko are attempting to insert themselves into, for both different and similar reasons-- Tenko because he decides to embrace the fact that he killed his family and uses it as evidence that he was "born evil" and "wanted them to die" as a way of explaining his existence. AFO because he wants to escape from the reality that he murdered his brother, while also escaping from the reality of his origin as a helpless infant who no one would look at no matter how much he cried. Blah blah blah etc etc when I say u have to read AFO and Tenko's arcs as a set instead of getting angry at AFO for "inserting himself into Tenko's story," I really do mean it lmao).

Like, MVA aside, Chapter 115 in particular set the tone for Act 2 and HEAVILY foreshadowed what Tenko's arc would end up being about:

(lmao ya'll there is so much evidence in Act 2 that points to the idea that Hori really did want to write a deconstruction of your typical hero story. like, the framing of this panel with Jin angrily turning the TV off when they start talking about "focusing on the positives"????😭I get so sad when I think about the mha we coulda had)

(Side note: Jin was just so so so good as both a character and as a device meant to introduce the reader to MHA's concepts of identity + how a "hero/villain" identities are frequently used as crutches to stop a person from breaking apart under the weight of their trauma

..... which of course makes the fact that Hori rendered his death pointless in the end all the more upsetting :/)

(Pictured: AFO and Tenko fighting over the role of Shigaraki Tomura)

(this scene where Jin talks about the importance of knowing "who u really are" immediately transitions to a scene with AFO, btw. lmao)

((As an aside: 115 is another shining example of how Hori is definitely a competent writer, bc it manages to set up pretty much the entirety of Act 2 + its themes up in just 15-17 pages-- which is all the more reason why the extremely poor quality of MHA's conclusion is so hard to swallow. I definitely don't believe in blaming the editors/publishers alone for how things turned out, but all the same, I do think there was some executive meddling from behind the scenes bc of how rushed and disjointed the epilogue ended up being. It's not the quality we're used to, not by a long shot, and you can tell as much by reading pretty much any chapter before 423.)) /tangent over

ANYWAY. To me, it ways always pretty obvious that AFO was more or less grooming Tenko to be his perfect ~Demon Lord~ OC-- the idea of treating a real person like a fictional character is something I find pretty terrifying + it's something that further emphasizes MHA's metafiction elements, with Tenko being trapped in a role that was written for someone else. I feel that there was adequate build up to AFO being "the author" behind Shigaraki Tomura, specifically-- and it all seemed to be leading up to a point where Tenko would be encouraged to break free & finally take control of his own story ("I needed to hear those words" -> "Those guys (the villains) need a hero, too" -> "You CAN be a hero" "Uh, whoopsie??" 🥲🥲🥲)

Sadly it ends up amounting to nothing because..... Tenko isn't even allowed to fully process the implications of his birth/life and how this has influenced his actions/beliefs/"dream" before exploding, a core scene between him and Nana gets offscreened, and our MC never even bothers to react to the revelation that Tenko's life was scripted. It renders a HUGE part of Tenko's character arc almost completely pointless because we get no actual resolution/pay off for everything that was set up. Like, so much of the finale + epilogue just feels like Hori was going down a check list of plot points/parallels he wanted to include before putting MHA out of its misery, rather than building up to them naturally-- and it's just sad it had to end this way, bc, well. It didn't HAVE to end this way. Hori had all the ingredients necessary to make something truly wonderful, but he didn't use them.

Hi, can I ask from both ask game :

https://www.tumblr.com/threecheersforinking/677824836625694720/anime-ask-game?source=share

https://www.tumblr.com/rafael-silva/90297624190/send-me-a-fandom?source=share

For anime/manga : Boku no Hero Academia

Anime Ask Game - BNHA

Favorite Character: Katsuki Bakugou… I know everyone already knows that but it still makes me feel ashamed to say it cuz it’s such a basic bitch answer lmao. But no one can make me not adore him.

Favorite Arc/Episode/Scene: I know this is supposed to be ‘either or’ but I’m gonna answer all three.

My favorite arc is probabaly My Villain Academia. Believe or not I actually really like the villains, especially Shigaraki, and I think it’s one of the few arcs in the anime that was done complete justice (then again, I haven’t watched it in a while. I’m sure if I rewatched it my opinion would probably change because of how weird I am about the anime in comparison to the manga). The animation was great and it did what it was supposed to which was to give you engaging back story on some of the villains… and it successfully made me cry the first time I watched it. Anyways, yeah it’d either be MVA or the Paranormal Liberation War arc which is also pretty villain heavy but i like it for different reasons that I won’t go into right now cuz I don’t want this post to be super long.

My favorite episode is Deku vs Kacchan 2. I go back and watch it at least once or twice a year but I reread it more often than I wanna admit because I reference it/the things they said during it in my fics a lot. Light Fades to rain is definitely a close second though.

My favorite scene hasn’t been animated yet, but:

Haven’t been the same since tbh…

Character I think is Underrated: Monoma. I know Hori highlighted him at the end, but I don’t think we as a fandom acknowledge him enough for how cool his quirk is and how impressive the way he uses it is.

Character I think is Overrated: Endeavor… I’m sorry but his character development is literally just going from shitty wife beater -> the bare minimum. He literally tried to kill Touya still towards the end and take himself out with him, and his family had to stop him. I know the whole family blames themselves and thinks “we all failed Touya” but I will always disagree with that. Natsuo and Fuyumi were children and Shoto was literally five and being isolated by his father when Touya went to Sekoto Peak. And all Rei was doing was trying to keep her kids out of danger from their father. Of course she made mistakes, but can you blame her? It’s not like anyone is taught before hand how to handle that kind of abusive situation. I’m sorry, but it’s not a “we’re all to blame” situation, it was all rooted from Endeavor and no one can change my mind about that. I’m glad he doesn’t beat his kids and his wife anymore, but like I said, that’s literally the bare minimum. I don’t think he’s some great hero or anything either when he lost most of the fights he was involved in. I think he’s well written, but well written doesn’t always make a nice character. The only good decision he made as a dad was moving his kids away from him.

Favorite Ship/Pairing: Bkdk, but we already knew that.

Something I love about the Show/Movie: I actually don’t like the anime all that much… after I watched it the first time, and then watched it again with my brother, it stopped being enjoyable. I prefer the manga so much more, however, I will say that I do enjoy most of the music from the anime as a dropout music major. Might+U is unironically one of the prettiest/most impactful/most rememberable orchestral piece I’ve heard in superhero media. It elicits a lot of emotion for a lot of people and I think that’s super cool :)

Fandom Ask Game - BNHA… again

The first character I first fell in love with: Denki Kaminari. I thought he was funny and dumb and I just adored him while I watched it for the first time.

The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: Katsuki Bakugou. I literally hated him for the first three seasons but I only stopped minding him after DvK2. When I read the manga though, how quickly he became my favorite character of all time came completely out of left field. It felt like a punch in the face.

The character everyone else loves that I don’t: Present Mic. Idk why but he annoys me so much and I just don’t really see much that significant about his character. I don’t hate him or anything, I just find him annoying.

The character I love that everyone else hates: …I don’t think I have one? Maybe Himiko? I know in our community she’s well loved but apparently a lot of dudebros hate her. So yeah. I love Himiko :)

The character I used to love but don’t any longer: Mitsuki Bakugou. I don’t hate her, but the way she blames Katsuki for being too weak to defend himself and being the reason All Might retired, hurt my feelings. The first time I watched it, I saw it as a gag, but when I read the manga, it was literally the exact words Katsuki said later to Deku while mentally breaking down. I didn’t like her as much after I realized that. It hurts more when you think about how he used to call Deku weak all the time to make himself feel better. Bullying is often projecting your parental issues onto someone else to lift yourself up in some way because your parents don’t, and since you’re a kid, you don’t know how to lift yourself up in a healthy manner. It just made me sad realizing what Mitsuki’s treatment had to do with Katsuki’s behavior :/

The character I would totally smooch: Mirko. Enough said.

The character is want to be like: honestly everyone in this manga has issues. I’d wanna be like Katsuki, but I don’t want the anger issues, mommy issues, inferiority complex, heart issues, and potential high blood pressure that comes with his good qualities… oh wait I already got all that. Do u think it’d stay the same or would it all double? I ain’t gonna risk it.

I’d wanna be like Sero. Yeah, he seems like he has the least amount of issues. Plus he dresses nice. Anyways…

The character I’d slap: Chisaki and Endeavor. I don’t think I need to explain…

A pairing that I love: Bkdk, but again, we been knew that

A pairing that I despise: EndHawks. I’m sorry but Keigo is literally Touya’s age first of all, and I think anyone who’s willing to date someone the same age or younger as one of their kids is fucking creepy. And two, the way Hawks admired Endeavor is a lot like the way Izuku admired All Might and it just feels icky??? Oh and three, I don’t think a guy who beat his wife and kids, and even drove one of his kids to accidental suicide, shouldn’t be in another relationship, especially one with an unbalanced power dynamic like a 20+ year age gap. Anyways…

Thank for the ask anon! I enjoyed answering it!

as much as i want shigaraki back (PLEASE) it does serve the plot and his last words better if this Mystery Person is just a random guy - one mistreated by their family, missed by Heroes all this time, then left to die in the wreckage of the world.

Shigaraki wanted to destroy everything - and yes, that was partly because of how AFO manipulated his life and cultivated him into the Symbol of Terror - but by the end of MVA, it was truly his genuine conviction, and one reinforced by his bond with the League. They shared his goal (like how Toga still dreamed of the easier world even after Ochako saved her heart). Shigaraki wasn't entirely wrong, the League wasn't entirely wrong, and that was how he wanted to be Hero for the Villains - to destroy the sources of their pain. Quirk Counseling, Heteromorph Discrimination, Abuse, the Hero System, etc. His destruction has turned heroic by the end - it's the famous SMASH by another name and look.

In Chapter 423, Shigaraki reflects that he didn't manage to destroy anything, and his message to Spinner was that he tried, all to the end. Deku, because he's got a brick for a brain, doesn't understand what Shigaraki meant, and tries to tell Shigaraki that he already destroyed it. What does 'it' mean, for Deku? AFO? Hatred? Who knows; it doesn't matter what Deku thinks. What matters is the destruction Shigaraki was talking about - everything he has witnessed in this world. The rejection, the injustices, the sources of suffering. None of it was destroyed, though he and the League had shaken things up. Hence, "it depends on you guys tomorrow."

Hence, Mystery Person. Treating them as a reborn!Tenko feels nice, but is essentially seeing only a Crying Child and caring only because of that. Because if they're not 2(?)-weeks-old Reborn!Tenko, then they're someone who's been suffering for a lot longer than that. They're someone who suffered under the way things were back from before the war started, before the League of Villains ever made a move. If my observations are any bit correct, they're someone who's been mistreated and abandoned, and was unsaved by Heroes all this time. Now the war has ended, things are going back to normal, and people are working for a Bright Future, and all these Heroes are out there, being there for the country... but still not for Mystery Person. No one is there for them, so their first act is to destroy - with trembling hands, they cut away their restraints.

They were (and still is) in the exact circumstances Shigaraki wanted to destroy. They're the exact type of person Shigaraki wanted to be a Hero for.

And it depends on Deku and the others to do something about this, and whether Shigaraki's 'do your best' to Deku meant anything at all.
