Standard shonen endings have rotted some people's brains. I've seen so many dudebros disappointed that Izuku didn't at the very least "bag his girl" as some sort of reparation for losing his quirk. And so much Ochako slander for "ghosting" Izuku for 8 years for being quirkless (not true btw, leak mistranlastion) because she wasn't explicitly Izuku's endgame love interest in typical shonen fashion. I even saw a tweet doing crazy numbers (70k+ likes) suggesting that Izuku should've gotten with Hatsume because at least she spent 8 years working on his suit....? Ask yourself why you feel like Izuku needed a canon love interest post-time skip to be happy. And then ask yourself why you hate women and view them as the MC's "much-deserved" reward for saving the day.

Hear me out :

Izuku Midoriya used to stutter a lot back in primary/middle school (it kinda stopped when he met all might, due to him being more confident or smth)

And even as an adult, the first time he tried to speak to you, he was stuttering HARD. Took him a minute to ask for your name (which you gave him, as well as your number)

Sometimes nightmares are a b*tch but don't worry your personal overworking nightlight will sleep beside you and make everything better :)

When I tell you I'm so sick of this.

Yes, yes, Bakugou used to be his bully and all that yadda yadda. Oh my gosh, wow, a bully in the story! How dare such a thing exists!

Okay, stop clutching your pearls. Even Bakugou knew he was a total ass and it's not something he ever got away with like that, let alone he does grow up, so chill.

But if you're gonna go that route, throwing Todoroki in there to be like "it makes sense to pair them instead" is kind of strange because even though Todoroki didn't bully Midoriya, they did still immediately start on the wrong foot. I mean, Todoroki could have killed Midoriya in their match but I don't see people going "I don't understand how people can ship them, it doesn't make sense to me when Todoroki could have seriously killed Midoriya that one time".

I have seen people ship Midoriya with characters worse than Bakugou, but OMG, it's their ship that gets tackled on the most and at this point, I see it as a trend.

I see it as someone has to do because they're a follower.

Honestly, it's just getting ridiculous.

If the ship doesn't make sense to you, it doesn't make sense to you, who cares? But posting about it like this and then tagging it, doesn't do anything good.

No one who has caught up with the anime and manga would post about the ship in a rather negative way would be "it doesn't make sense to ship them".

"What if they aren't caught up?"

Even so, does it need to make sense? Is it an actual necessity for someone to have a ship to make sense if at the end of the day they're just entertained by the mere thought of it and not bothering you about it?

Take it from someone who ships Miruko and Burnin and is her favorite MHA ship at this time. We ain't see them have no onscreen interaction. That didn't stop me though and going "Hey, I think you two would look cute together".

There are ships in this fandom that have a way worse relationship in canon and still people ship them.

"I see art that depicts them being cute together." Okay, so and? Are you losing HP from it like some video game character that has yet to move out the lava? Do you grow a horn every time you see cute ship art of it? It's not the only ship drawn out there being cute together. It's not like there aren't cute moments in canon for them. Then stop looking at the art. Why are you looking at the art? If you keep seeing BakuDeku art, clearly... you're in the area. Probably on purpose.

I know if I keep seeing art of a ship I don't like it's a me problem because I have the choices to not follow certain people, block the tag, etc.

Maybe you shouldn't be in the MHA fandom at all given the amount of art for them anyways that's official.

Look, I'm not bothered by someone not liking Bakudeku. Could really give zero crap about it, honestly. I have ships I don't like either.

But what bothers me is posting about it, attacking the ship and tagging it.

We all have our opinions and I believe, good or bad, post about them.

However, people do shit like this and then mask it as "having an opinion" when really they probably want to start drama.

"But, Kiya, what if they're not trying to start drama? What if they don't know the proper way to tag?"

I call bullshit and I don't care. Oh, yes, I sound like a bitch, but let's be real here.

Stuff like this happens no matter where. It doesn't just happen on Tumblr. People have done this over and over and over to the point that it is hard to believe that person isn't trying to start anything.

New or not, people by now should know that if they're going to say something negative about a ship, don't draw in the shippers.

If this person didn't want to start drama then why bring TodoDeku into this? "Make it make sense." That right there is a sign of "I'm starting drama". Uh, people do happen to ship TodoDeku. I even ship it. It's not like people don't at all in the fandom ship them and only ship BakuDeku, so stop.

It's not like this person or anybody who does this is genuinely asking and do what to know because maybe they are genuinely curious and/or considering the ship but first wants to know more about it.

No, they're just being hostile. This is not an opinion. It's an attack disguised as one.

If you don't like the ship, okay. But if you're going to post about it, don't tag it.

This isn't even about BakuDeku only anymore. I see this with ships that don't even have anything wrong with them and in different fandoms. It's tiring, it's annoying and just takes the fun out of shipping.

As an Izuocha shipper, I don’t understand homophobic Izuocha shippers. I feel like those people have a thorough misunderstanding of their characters.

I feel like they’re the same ones who were saying that the Savior Trio trying to reason and humanize their villains was ‘stupid’— and that they should’ve just killed them.

The point of humanizing their villains isn’t so the readers have sympathy towards Himiko, Touya and Tenko, but to inspire EMPATHY in the world. It’s to understand them as both the villains and victims they were, so they can see their whole self. Part of why the LOV became villains was due to discrimination.

The ‘Saving Villains’ thing has been foreshadowed since chapter 1 when Izuku rushed in to save Katsuki from the Sludge Villain. Izuku is selfless; he’s someone who will aid other people, even when they hurt him and aren’t asking to be saved, he’ll save them. He’s the hero who’ll save everyone.

Ochako has always had deep empathy and kindness ever since she was a baby. She saw her parents struggling— and decided to help them. Ochako decided to become a rescue hero of all things to earn money; a dangerous job, and the type of hero closest to people in need, because she genuinely wants to help people.

Izuku becoming a UA teacher allows him to guide future generations to be kind and empathetic heroes. The kinda that will reach out a hand to people like Tenko, and the ones society leaves behind.

Ochako establishing a counseling program helps give children an outlet to use their quirks, and to promote positivity for mental health and therapy. It helps people like Himiko, who were rejected and suppressed their needs.

Through connecting to one another, they understood why Himiko and Tenko became villains. Izuku and Ochako try to address the root causes of the problems— so less heroes are needed because less people need to be saved.

Saving their villains doesn’t mean they absolve them of their actions, some crimes cannot be redeemed— however, a hero should always strive to deliver justice; not just for the victims of the villain, but also the injustice that the villain faced as a victim.

Trying to empathize with people who became villains helps save other people like Tenko and Himiko before they get hurt and hurt others.

Part of the Izuocha dynamic and their individual characters is that they’re selfless people who would help anyone who needs it. They’re united in this goal of blind justice and building bright futures.

…So I’m wondering, of all the male x female ships that the fake fans cling to— WHY IZUOCHA??? The ship where one of its core themes is extending kindness towards people you don’t understand or necessarily agree with; isn’t that like the OPPOSITE of DISCRIMINATION?!?!💀

……

Anyway, on a totally unrelated note…

I’ve been thinking of doing gender swapped Izuku & Ochako designs— so I can draw lesbian izuocha and gay Izuocha.

Definitely not out of spite hahahaha….
