dont mind me. Im just here, thinking about the beginning of the manga with izuku being rude for example in the sports festival for insulting one of his classmates to create a parallel with katsuki, showing a complicated rivalry thru a similar attitude he would also get quite easily when he needs to defend others vs towards the end where its clear theres a separation between the anger he feels for others’ pain and the rage he has when its katsuki. And its not even about making him less or more angry -when he is pissed off, he is always really… animalistic? He “wants” to act in that kind of way, and we know about the difference because of him not being able to hold back.
Theres anger and pain and rage when shigAFO stabbed and hurt Gran Torino, Aizawa-sensei, and others. He barely is able to hold back. And then Kacchan gets both stabbed AND insulted as a worthless sacrifice?? Thats it, he is a wounded dog.
ppl will say bkdk it’s just another sns and that they would end with girls but have you thought about:
They are different mangas with different authors. They don’t have to end the same way at all -and knowing horikoshi disliked the ending, it makes even less sense.
It’s canon that Katsuki really, really dislikes attention from girls and doesn’t pay them any mind at all, to the point of not having even moments with any that could count as lazy romance. Who tf is he picking?
The popular ships in Japan according to polls when n*ruto was going on were exactly the ones that became canon as far as I know so even if in the west it made little sense for many, they were justified and liked my at least a big part of the Japanese audience.
All of the “you hurt my loved one and now I need to kill you” moments were exclusively with Katsuki being targeted (with this I mean he loses the ability to hold this back. With others he is able to at least maintain some sanity even if it hurts him personally); in n*ruto, as far as I know, there are moments like that with Sas*ke and Hin*ta being the targets making the protagonist lose control. The most similar situation was when Himiko stabbed Ochako in front of him and he was worried about leaving when there’s such an unpredictable character, but it was more about wanting to make sure she is okay. In Katsuki’s case, it always make him more rude and impatient + lose self control when things get too serious, going against his own ideals.
#Hold the fuck up i just realized something#In the manga when he remembers the whole control your heart line#in the panel we see a destroyed city#just like when he looked at it with ochako before the final war#could this be a parallel?#Ochako went there to prioritize others’ safety and remember she “shouldn't” be thinking about himiko#And instead of getting a katsuki panel like with the others chapters before we see destroyed buildings#is he there trying to prioritize his hero duty over his hurt for kacchan paralleling ochako??#like- i sound so fucking crazy but i just realized#im not writing it there bc i feel crazy#if you are reading this pls tell me if im just trying to see things#for a long time i thought that decision of not showing him was intentional just like not putting him with the others when deku’s th#thinking about how shigaraki hurt the people he cares about#And it made sense to show the city#but it being a parallel to togachako who are more upfront about their mutual understanding and feelings??#so that conversation with ochako symbolizes to him his duty as a hero to stop shigaraki remembering he is a human#however a destroyed city is also related to the feeling of a stabbed katsuki#in the way that he really really can’t be thinking about it#when katsuki in the memories ep said he shouldn’t be thinking about sentimental shit -he was right#izuku can’t handle it#in the best case he is able to keep control#in the worst total destruction would spread#unlike katsuki who is able to be all soft and sentimental and win the fight#Izuku can’t. His emotions are way too big for him#he can’t ignore the pain he sees#and he certainly can’t ignore a dying katsuki without needing to just fucking win even if it hurts whoever did it#which is way too risky for everyone#izuku Doesn’t want to cause more pain#he doesn’t want to be a killer he is a savior#so yeah he really needs to directly not think about that sentimental shit in particular if he wants to at least try
