every day i am haunted by that one post that said bakugou doesn’t need his gauntlets because he can control his sweat production. like ???? it’s made p clear that his ability to force himself to sweat is limited. and even if it wasn’t it’s still... a liquid??? so he really wouldn’t be able to make blasts on the same scale as his gauntlets without some kind of container???

#are his gauntlets big and impractical? yeah but they look cool as hell #some amount of suspension of disbelief is okay and even necessary #a handful of impractical design elements is no big deal when we dont see them hindering the character #and they arent representative of a larger problem #like ive said it before but yaoyorozu's costume is atrocious #the unnecessary heels on p much every female superhero in mainstream media? awful #how yaoyorozu's costume doesnt even expose the right body parts for her to make large items without ripping it #and we've seen her have to waste time and energy remaking her poorly designed outfit?#wack #but little things like. cutting out cool accessories #you can't fight crime if you don't look cute!!!#it's okay to be a LITTLE impractical #also it's not a big deal imo that most of the characters dont wear armor because that's p much standard for heroes in universe?#the only ones i can think of off the top of my head with a significant amount of protective gear #are aoyama who's really only wearing it because Shiny #and iida presumably because a lot of his fighting style is just. slamming into people #and also because his family's aesthetic is all robotic armor stuff #also mina's ugly colors and fur are Good Actually because they look like something a tacky 15 yr old would pick out #not talking about anything else just the fabric pattern and the fur cuff #let her wear ugly clothes in peace #stop removing those elements when you redesign her they are ESSENTIAL
