For those who needed to hear it today
I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one who has trouble remembering developmental milestones. I put these together, but can’t take credit for any of the photography. Hope someone finds them helpful!
Also, what about the fire and heat part? I am actually really curious about that one.
Soo, you have summoned the ancient one?
Anyway, let me start yapping.
First question: What are each of the Naga's favorite food/animal? And how diverse are their diets? Is it like that Tomura eats anything and everything and Dabi is like: I cam only eat 2,75 year old bird of this exact species that died when the sun kisses the mountains in the north. And Tomura is like carbs are carbs as he chews down om something questionable looking.
And where do they hide or what do they do during amd after sheds? Like my own pet snake hides under their water dish and then had a beautiful yellow glow with the usual reflective rainbow stuff. So does like Tomura hide in his cave as he is pissy and blind and has a blue or red glow after? Amd does Dabi have to bring him like damp moss for humidity for an easier shed? And does he held him bathe and clean if he has a bad shed? And I think Dabi would have easier sheds with his smooth scales.
How territorial are they? And do they still have some family bonds? Like does Dabi want to visit his family or does Tonura mourn the loss of his own or do they just not care.
Also what is their stance on fire? Because I know my snake could burn itself and be like mhmmm warm.. oh why does it smell burnt? Idk... who cares. Did that like happen with Dabi and Tomura makes fun of him like he doesn't have small burns on his stomach from sunbathing on boiling rocks?
It’s like my prayers have been answered
First question: Dabi has a very sensitive stomach, he has to be very careful about what he eats. He HAS to have his meats cleaned and well cooked, or else he’ll get sick. Dabi likes lamb and fresh fruit. Makes him very happy whenever presented with a fruit tree.
Shigaraki is feral, he’s not a picky guy. Will chow down on human flesh if hungry enough. Tomura likes wild boar and mice, he finds it specially tasty when he had to fight to get it
Shigaraki does indeed hide during shedding, bro doesn’t like people looking at him. He finds it so humiliating whenever his vision gets cloudy, hisses every time he bumps into something.
Dabi just sees it as a normal process but very cumbersome. Requires some assistance from Shigaraki.
Dabi has no desire to see his family, he’ll get very upset if he even thinks about them intruding on his territory and fucking with his mate/possible hatchlings. He’s chill with Rei and his siblings but it’s on SIGHT for Enji
Shigaraki is very quiet about his family, only mentioning them when needed. He does keep some remnants of their bodies in the den but he’s rarely in that spot.
They are territorial, they loathe it whenever some human or other mythical creature is in their domain. It’s especially bad whenever it’s wintertime/food is possibly scarce or when Shigadabi have entered their mating cycle.
When Reader comes into the mix, it only makes them extra territorial.
(Thanks for this! I’ve been longing to YAP again)
Izuku stagnated as a character, reaching a point in his development and never growing beyond it. Throughout BNHA, he learned about how unfair and corrupt Hero Society was, even being a victim of it himself when he was quirkless.
Izuku would experience doubt and start to question the world he idolized for so long, only to return to worshiping and defending it. He kept speaking about “saving” Tomura but failed and acted as if he couldn’t because heroes can’t “save” everyone. In the end, Izuku and his classmates become cogs in Hero Society’s machine, and nothing changes. He repeatedly encountered proof of Hero Society’s failure, but in the end, none of this mattered to him.
Instead of becoming the catalyst of change and leading it with his classmates and the League of Villains, Izuku decided to accept Hero Society as is. He's so blinded by his adoration for heroes that he ignores the corruption and flaws of the society they uphold.
Horikoshi hit a wall with Izuku’s character, reducing him to a pro-Hero Society bootlicker instead of making him someone who is a hero of change and improvement.
Tbh, I started MHA because I thought it would be inspirational and shit. There is this powerless guy who gets powers from his idol and wants to save everyone. I thought since he knew how cruel society could be, since he experienced it himself, we'd get some great plot twists and conversations with villains. Especially after we got their backstories. But then, for Izuku, the supposed hero of all and everyone, to just go "Nvm, we need to kill them all," was quite shocking to me.
Even more when nothing happened after Endeavor was exposed and after the Lady Nagant thing. Or so much more, he is so close to these villains and their living reality from time to time that it really makes me question how he can still be in support of the heroes and the agencies as much as he is. Like he knows the truth about Tenko but stays quiet, nobody will ever truly know how much of a victim he was.
I expected at least something from Izuku, who is the hero of all. But I should have seen all this bullshit coming when the Eri arc with the festival happened. Like yeah, sure, one dance and a smile helped a girl get over the years of experimentation and drama instantly.
I used to roll my eyes at the "Eri will rewind Tomura to kill him and get Tenko back to save everyone" theory but now I feel like it would have been 10 times better than the actual ending we got. I am just very disappointed at the Manga, especially the conclusion and how rushed the ending felt. I also hate it how tmsome parts of the community treated the villain and the MVA arc, like please stop acting like bratty toddlers who have never heard of empathy and can only hate for once.
"But Dabi wanted to kill Shoto as a kid. He was soo selfish and cruel. He is a sociopath!" He was a fucking kid, kids a petty and need to learn their emotional intelligence from their parents. And since Enji has the emotional intelligence of a brick or course something messed up happened. Toya just wanted his father's attention and the man to be proud of him. And sociopathy is taught and is just another proof of the fact that Endeavor is a horrible person.
"But...but he changed! He is a good father now! He wants to fix his family!" Fix the family by killing the one that exposed him? Fix the family by being an overbearing father to Shoto? Fix the family by literally convincing them that Toya is the only problem and that they need to gang up to kill him? And even if he changed he needs to pay for his fucking crimes.
"But Dabi is evil!" Dabi is literally the product of his father's abusive and neglecting behavior toward his family. Of course, the child of an abuser is messed up in the head! Oh look, the sky is blue. Oh, what a fucking discovery.
And that is just Dabi and Endeavor. I don't even want to start with Tomura and AFO. That is the peak abuser and victim thing where the victim gets not acknowledged and is literally told "Your abuser was bad and all, but you ARE his victim. So why didn't you fight back when you were 5? You should have known better," like please. People!
I love Mha and it has truly great villains and a good idea. It could have been the most awesome story about changing society and stopping the stigmatization of minorities and victims of abuse and villains. It could have been an inspiration on how to better the world. Izuku could have been a goat for redeeming the villains and opening the people's eyes. He could have started a revolution. It could have been wonderful.
But looks like his legs are not stable enough, and now I can't even take him or Hori seriously.
Random 14 year-olds write better endings to MHA than Horikoshi himself. How do you fuck up your "dream series where all my wishes come true" so badly.
Also, sorry for all this yapping, I need to put my anger and disappointment somewhere.
I don't mean everything is shit after this, but things looking back started getting (steadily) worse starting with. Check bottom for more indept view on each option
A) at first I wasn't going to include this one as it happened before most of what I considered shit started happening, but with how much it blatantly favours this lazy-ass child abuser, how could I not include it. And of course, it shows so much evidence that he hasn't changed at all, like only even offering to teach Midoriya and Bakugo to manipulate his favourite victim Shoto
B) when it first happened I was devastated but expected this to lead to greater change to the hero system and society. But no, just a meaningless footnote to the heroes epic battle
C) literally no one questions how a top hero was just so eager to kill someone, or buy a wife, breed her, abuse & neglect his kids to the point one of them was believed dead. Only citizens whining about how Dabi is bad for them
D) here's this apparently big shot hero from the States we've never heard of before and immediately dies. If they wanted to keep Shigaraki from having too many powers they could of just chalked it up to the heroes interupting the process
E) the Todoroki family all blames themselves, this isn't to go into the complexity of abusive households, but to absolve Endeavor's responsibility and guilt. Despite the fact that as the one who created and was in control of this situation, he should be held accountable for theirs as well. The only backlash for his shit is framed as ohh poor Endeavor, he didn't mean for the child he threw away to create consequences, and now people are being mean to them
F) what was the point of this arc? Deku barely asks a villain three questions before giving up. He learns the HPSC had Lady Nagant acting as a secret assassin against any undesireables for them, covered up her arrest and got a replacement assassin (Hawks who has at least one confirmed extra jurdical murder under his belt). Witnesses an innocent woman get attacked for her appearance and was turned away from multiple shelters for said appearance. Deku: Hero Society is the Best, Nothing needs to change, because not every single apple in this basket is rotten to the core! Looking back he just looks worse for this
G) so this child, who due to his parents mistake was blackmailed under great threat & risk, into giving information to the blackmailer, deserves to be chained up and forced to take further risk by the heroes. Remember Endeavor never faces any consequences, nor does Hawks, but this child, Yuga, gets treated like this.
H) once again what was the point? How does Edgeshot know he can do this? How does he know how to do this? Why is he a top hero who has never interacted with Bakugo before this, sacrifices his appearing to be unharmed self, for a random hero student in the middle of a war? Oh and Edgeshot is revealed to be alive at the end of the manga, because Heroes have no consequences and live in magical fairytail land. Again what was the fucking point!
I) This was originally going to be two points, Oh poor Endeavor, victim blaming part 2 and the hospital battle. But I ran out of options and Endeavor doesn't need another personal option. So we got the whole Todofam blaming Dabi/Touya this time, and Endeavor being a whiney responsibility dodging coward again. Then we see the heroes knew that the villains were going to go after Kurogiri, kept him in a hospital. We see that the people aren't going after doctors or patients just trying to get to Kurogiri, get demonized for it. We have victim blamer/ pick-me Tentacole say that their kids will be attacked for this (already happening), and that it's up to them/ him to inspire the violent quirkests to not constantly attack, assualt, and otherwise discriminate against them, no need for the quirkists to be given any responsibility or consequences for their own actions. Oh and Spinner has major brain damage because how else was Tentacole supposed to win this arguement. Bonus points for Hawks calling for Toga to be murdered, doubling right back down on his previous murder
J) in this already overcrowded 3rd act lets make sure all these background characters get a scene! And despite the fact it took years for Deku to get a powersuit in the epilogue, All Might just randomly gets one, no build up or anything. AFO's backstory is left in the past so no one has to consider anything
K) I had hope going into this, but at every turn they kept on making it worse. Deku only tries punching and attacking, rather than make any attempts to actually talk unlike what Shigaraki has been doing since his introduction. Is randomly able to enter Shigaraki's head, doesn't have to see just how fucked Hero Society is as it gets cut short by moral scapegoat AFO coming in and revealing he orcastrated everything! Oh and he flat out kills Shigaraki. Living up to his name and not his goal. Deku that could my ass
Sorry if this comes off as super negative but I've been wondering this for a while, and well I'm pissed at the ending. Here's some people I want to hear the opinions of:
@moodyvoid @nagitosstolenhand @codenamesazanka @shortstrawberryshake @darkonekrisrewrite @nothingofinterest @itsnothingofinterest @villainsandvictimsalliance
Feel free to @ more people
Dabi: You like me? For my personality?
Shigaraki: I know. I was surprised too.
Spinner gets special permission to go into Dabi’s hospital room and read the League of Villains book he wrote to him.
Dabi: “Why’d you make me sound like such an asshole?”
Spinner: “… I’m quoting you directly.”
I think it's rly cute that spinner's and toga's birthdays are back-to-back <3
this girl must have pussy like a pizza bc Everytime she fucks me I have little seizures
And "The Masochism Tango" from Tom Lehrer is very Shigadabi coded in my opinion
Quick traditional ass sketch with that shitty pencil on that free note I got from attending a seminar before my appointment. I'll tell the therapist they're the reason I'm sick and always throwing up aUGH<3
you have to share an apartment with the 4th character in your camera roll for 3-4 years.
🎶Last song I listened to: Joyride from Kesha. I have always been a huge Kesha fan, and I am glad that she is back and, in a way better condition.
📺Currenlty watching: Kusuriya no Hitorigoto, I'm a little late to the game, but I really like the show. It could drop the romantic aspect and still be a banger, which is amazing
🌶Sweet/Savory/Spicy: Definitely spicy. I love spicy food as much as I can. Though my stomach doesn't like it sometimes.
❤️Relationship status: Single but in a complicated position. I want to, but the cards say no chance.
😍Current obsession: Biblically accurate Sunday. I love Sunday from Honkai Starrails and I can't wait to see and update to his morals or even personality. Though I prefer my birdiness manipulative and smug.

Dabi, in the middle of chatting with the League.
Dabi: “…Hey, I’ll be right back.”
Meanwhile, at the Todoroki household.
Natsuo and Shouto going through Touya’s room.
Shouto: “Touya would be so mad if he knew we were in here.”
Natsuo: “Well, then he shouldn’t have left all his stuff- Look, a holographic Charizard card-“
Dabi, bursting in through the window: “GET OUT OF MY ROOM!”
Natsuo & Shouto: “AGH-“
Shackle her mortal body and weak mind with your words
THIS bitch
You WILL do random stuff around the house or office and then pause because you just had the greatest idea for a plottwist or plot idea and skedaddle to a notebook to write it down quickly.
You will not use AI to get ideas for your story. You will lie on the floor and have wretched visions like god intended
The worst thing for me personally is that all the poster boys/chibis that have been used for marketing over and over again are dead and have unsatisfactory endings. Like most people just know MHA because of the villains, which were written wonderfully, but now have lost all their life and character.
This ending is so unsatisfactory/confusing/non-ending like that I firmly believe that Hori started hating the series halfway through end highs or he died and some newbie finished it. Cause you can not tell me that this is supposed to be it?! Where is the promised change with Izuku? Why does it feel like we will be trapped in an infinite samsara with society failing people again and again. Them then turn into villains only to be killed and have no trauma ever addressed.
You mean to tell me that MHA just ended with Izuku all alone, hero society is still fucking broken, so many questions are unanswered and we’re supposed to just be fine with it?!
I know good goddamn well we didn’t wait 10 years just for this shit to happen
I’m tired ya’ll
Me rn, I have so much time. I have everything. And still, nothing. I somehow just can't
Apollo, please you did not have to go that hard.
How the fuck did I sort of predict the bad ending/what fucking epilog was that?/ so well? I have how MHA ended, I hate how almost no trauma from the students was talked about properly or the villains. I hate that we don't know if Dabi had been given the merciful and gentle touch of death. I hate how the most relatable group turned out to be the one pushed to the side and tossed away so quickly. I hate how we don't get anything about Kurogiri, not even Aizawa or Hizashi at his grave. I hate how there seem to be no legal consequences for any warcrimes or missdeeds done. Starting at child soldiers and ending with the whole Endeavor thing. Or the most is a little slap on the fingers!
I cannot accept that this last chapter was written by the same author that had written the iconic Dabi's Dance. The chapter that outdid the fucking presidential election of the fucking United States of Amerika!
It doesn't feel the Manga ended. I mean, the chapter before this one had something, but it still felt so robotic. I don't feel anything other than disappointment and dread.
If I may be delusional now, but Hori should come out after like a week of it being published and be like "Ha, jokes on you. That was a publicity stunt. It is all some kind of Madara dream thing." Or he will just make a "My hero academia 2" and call it like "Your hero academia" or "My villain academia" something corny like that
Anyway, that was just my primordial yapper being unleashed.
I just feel like I have to say this about my finished book "Sepent of the lost"
The bad ending "XVI The Tower" as well as the good ones were written while I was on vacation. And they staying as drafts for 6 days because I didn't have a grammar software on my phone. And in a way I am disappointed ever since I saw the newest MHA chapter. Like damn...it's either that Apollo slapped me with a bat in the face and made me predict Tomura's self destruction ending or Hiro had the same idea as me....while I was blasted and drinking liquor almost 24/7. And I do not want to know what this means in the whole, I am afraid it just shows how badly of a writer Hori is when it comes to Shigaraki. That his ending is just like mine, a fanfiction author with questionable taste.
Anyway, this is just my little rant.
@palesweetscherryblossom
The book I did with your Au is done, and I kind of want to hear your opinion about this.
Its always needs to be shocking and awful for people to give a shit on here, as if the situation isnt constantly shocking and awful. Even if we have momentum now i cant relax because i know it will die in a matter of hours and i will have to come around begging again for people to give a fuck.
I cant even imagine the pain and humiliation of being the palestinian person who actually needs help and has to beg people to give a shit, and so many people will straight up report them as spam and try to get their account deleted.
And tumblr will LET it get deleted because they are just looking for excuses to delete and silence ANYONE who isnt white or happens to be a trans woman.
Do you realise how dehumanizing that is? That people will automatically assume that you are not a real person because you dont speak the right language? Because you havent been immersed in the ambiently american culture of this website enough to navigate it "naturally"? Because reporting as spam is easier than doing the extra effort of even listening? All this while theres a genocide going on by people who have assumed that you are not worthy of the dignity of being considered human.
Honestly if we compare him with someone else, AFO *bitch cough* we can easily see who acts like a 5 year old, who has never been told no and is on crack. Like those people who act like Tomura is the incel for his temper tantrums and anger issues and whining and bitching have never seen how AFO acts. Please look at this ancient ass manchild and don't try to tell me Tomura is an incel or the worse one
y'all really call tomura an incel, hikkomori, gremlin when he's at this stage? really?
like guys when he's at this point, he's calmed down a lot and doesn't have any more anger episodes. idk why a lot of y'all think he only changes when we get to plf him.
also can we stop calling him an incel & hikkomori?
a.) he allowed toga and magne to join the lov. he wouldn't do that if he was an incel. b.) if you're talking about him still being at the bar, he's like that bc of his depression and that's one of afo's grooming methods. like he's not someone who isolates himself. we see him freely interacting with the league, chilling on the couch. that's him being his true self, when he's AWAY from his groomer. afo wants to keeps tomura in a level of despair and hatred. we see him get better and calms down AWAY from afo.
y'all need to stop reading the ooc tomura x reader fics for awhile and pick up the damn manga again.
when I was younger I didn’t understand why “may you live in interesting times” was considered a curse in ancient greece.
I get it now.
