Older and Wiser
So Endeavour carried out eugenics with his own children, was an abuser and a rapist but because he ugly cried a few times he was completely forgiven by the characters, the narrative and the fandom. Cool
oh how i love pretty ladies
Did you ever share your thoughts on Shoji and his mini arc with Spinner? What were your thoughts on how that was handled when it came to quirk discrimination?
I'm not sure I did, but I think it was really badly done. Hori should never touch a plotline that parallels with complex IRL problems like racial discrimination without much more research and sensitivity.
To say that discrimination will end if the victims keep turning the other cheek and strive to become cool based on the oppressor's standards is just an absurd way to "solve" discrimination.
Also, the ending where Shoji travelled the country and got awards somehow stopped discrimination was laughable. Look at any minority in the world - racial, sexual, disabilities, whatever - having a celebrity can be helpful of course, but will never solve the overall issue without proactive policies that bring real change over time.
(and I liked Shoji and was looking forward to his highlight, but the plotline was way too halfbaked).
yeah atp I'm just using sharktown usa as a vehicle for Everyone Lives No One Dies Nothing Bad Happens, don't @ me
anyway. inosuke is shark-douma's favorite little gremlin who frequently jumps into his tank to say hello to him. both of them are convinced that douma is inosuke's biological dad. He Is Not. douma still Dads him.
sharkuji and sharkaza are twinsies, obv, and sharkaza wingmanned for his brother who somehow had his and koyuki-shark's entire lives planned out but still had yet to like. talk to her. without turning into a blithering idiot. they're married now.
shipping renkaza fucking sucks because you either get people who hate real enemies to lovers and call it toxic or pr*ship because they actually are enemies who want to kill each other instead of friends who bicker sometimes (these people are the weakest link and will not survive the winter)
or you get people who do ship it but only in the gooner dumbing-it-down-to-hardcore-porn way where they romanticize and get off to abuse and r*pe (these people are just gross sick individuals and i hope they go extinct)
and the few people who do see the emotional depth in the homoerotic minutes renkaza spent together and the potential in that for top tier doomed yaoi are few and far in between and i rarely find good fics that aren't just insanely ooc porn
Note: I thought this scenario was kinda funny in my head because judging by how everyone acts with each and around Bakugo, something like this would happen in the main series. If Bakugo is going to constantly have toddler like tantrums and get physical with someone(Ex. Blowing up the dorm and a card game after getting a tie in a match with Deku/ Attacking Deku immediately after he congratulates Bakugo for getting his provisional license/ Throwing his sharp headgear at Deku causing him to bleed), then he would definitely do this. Anyway feel free to add your introspection. Normally Bakugo would have a hissy fit over something that is either petty, stupid or outrageous to fuel his inferiority complex so let’s say that he got mad for getting the second highest score on a test.
How this scene would play out is that class 1A would get their results of a test they took. Bakugo would get pissed because that he got the second highest score meanwhile Momo Yaoyorozu got the first highest. While Momo keeps her pride to herself, Bakugo would make a baseless claim the she is making fun of him. So Bakugo would proceed to attack Momo out of jealousy.
- Momo would be in a lot of pain from taking an explosion to the face
- Jiro, Kaminari, Mina, Sero, Tsuyu and Ida would get pissed and try to intervene but it probably won’t amount to anything
- Deku would probably try to intervene but Bakugo find an excuse to fight him
- Uraraka would direct her attention to Deku if he got attacked by Bakugo; ignoring Momo’s condition
- Mineta would make another perverted comment
- Todoroki wouldn’t do anything in this scenario(Good luck Todomomo fans)
- Sato and Tokoyami would just comment on how Bakugo’s attitude is ridiculous and not do anything else
- Kirishima would probably stand up against Bakugo while at the same time convince the others that his actions are reasonable
- Aoyama, Hagakure, Ojiro, Shouji and Koda would keep to themselves and not intervene
- Aizawa would harshly punish all of Class 1A and give Bakugo a light punishment
I just realized something about BNHA that I'm sure nobody on here talked about yet.
The show suffers from a protagonist centered morality.
Izuku or to a lesser extent those that're on the side of the heroes, are always seen as in the right and that anything going against that is automatically in the wrong and should be called out. Even if the other side makes a good point about something.
Take Eri and the reporters for example. The reporters raise good points about Bakugou and how irresponsible UA is, but are told "na nuh!" By Aizawa and it just ends at that.
Then Eri... She literally went from one place who used her power to another. It literally falls into "It's okay if WE do it!" even though this is supposed to be a story meant to point out the flaws in society but gets onto anyone who dares try to say anything bad about it!
God even after all this time BNHA still makes my blood boil!!
People need to talk about this more.
Good and bad in MHA has less to do with morality and more to do with who are the heroes and who are the villains. Which could have been a GREAT setup, only for Horikoshi to never talk about it.
Any time ANYONE has a point, they are immediately discredited or brushed aside. Like Izuku dismissing what Dabi said by defending Endeavor as his mentor. For this to come from our protagonist of all people that late in the game? It not only ignores something blatantly being called out, it also makes our protagonist look worse. Instead of addressing and amending the propaganda he set up, Horikoshi repeatedly reinforces it for some reason.
(This is a repeated problem with Izuku especially. He's such a blank prop that never got the development he deserves that any critiques about the world around him go right over his head. It's actually bittersweet that in the epilogue he is starting to come to a realization because no it's too late)
I've talked many times about how the LOV regressed into irredeemable monsters to make their suffering and the points they made meaningless. Spinner suffered from this the worst. He was the member of the LOV who didn't crave destruction and wanted to change things, only to forgo all of that in the Final War.
To watch all this happen when I used to love MHA is just so disappointing

a really strong mental connection
literally besties who happen to be dating
no opinion is controversial for any of them: enfp becomes a person with no filter when they're around entp
categorically attracted to each other's intellect, which boosts their already huge egos
enfp definitely pretended to be unamused/unaffected by entp's obvious attempts to flirt at first
every conversation/activity can tacitly turn into a competition between them
they are similar enough to be compatible and different enough to keep it interesting and challenging → great chemistry
both of them are extremely creative when it comes to pickup lines and witty/sexy comebacks
never run out of things to talk about or do together
rivals to lovers vibes
never beating the good girl x bad boy allegations
they both finally found someone to be unapologetically genuine, weird and nerdy with
Y'all still like him now?
