So in your mind Bakugou, a child, should have died? Really?
Bakugou is a fictional character.
The parasocial relationship and puritan crap I keep seeing is just weird.
But if you actually want what I think should have happened with Bakugou? I said it before: his arc should have ended with him being mid-rank and completely content with being a secondary hero. No agency, no top twenty position.
Bakugou is set up as being what society thinks a hero should be. Strong, fit, Flashy Quirk.
Yet as we know he's not a good perso. He makes fun of the guy who doesn't have a Quirk which is treated as a disability. He uses rude nicknames which kinda are Quirkist to. Commenting on the physical appearance of mutant characters who are said to suffer from discrimination due to said appearance. The fact he not only purposely triggers a side effect of a Quirk but seems to mug Kaminari for money to give to Kirishima despite the fact he is a rich kid. (I can’t remember if its said the money is his or not but its one of those panels I never know about.) The aggressiveness, the rudeness- it adds up.
What should have happened if we want to make Bakugou go through character development to be a better person is that he 1) faces more consequences for his attitude then he does in canon (IE: he is called out for the insults and name calling. A few angry comments from Shouji, Tsu or any of the mutant characters should have occurred. He gets called out and when he doesn't change people avoid him. He is ignored by them unless they are working with him or he needs help. Its made clear they do not want to be around him.) 2) faces actual punishment for his actions towards Izuku or others (IE: Kaminari makes a complaint about being forced into whey mode, Bakugou gets a warning or something. He receives punishment for nearly killing Izuku during the battle trials and ignoring a teacher. He is disqualified for trying to attack Todoroki after his match at the sports festival, not that mess of a situation) 3) Is not in any way an ‘important’ character.
The third one is tricky so I'll explain. It goes beyond the ‘Izuku shouldn't be have to be friends with Bakugou like he kind of is’ issues I have.
By this I mean Bakugou should be redundant as a character and the narrative shows it. He should find himself sinking while everyone else climbs higher. His Quirk SHOULD have actually drawbacks we see. Not just the mention of wrist issues. We should see him hurt himself and need to take a second. He should have frankly lost the sports festival to Uraraka and not gone on. And part of that SHOULD have been his Quirk not working how he wanted it to. Because the world relies on Quirks and Bakugou is hyper reliant on his.
Make it clear that's why. Then I want Bakugou to not be at the top of the class. Why? Because he is the normal fish who moved from his tiny pond to a big old ocean. Yes, he’s smart but take it from someone whose brother was smart in a small town: that don’t mean shit when your teachers suck.
Bakugou can be top ten. I just want him to have to face the fact he isn't the top of the class. The big dog on campus because everyone else is just as driven as he is, and some of them are smarter or faster or more skilled then he is.
This should end with Bakugou making his realization after the final exams where he hits Izuku and is flunked for it. It should have been noted and due to the fact in a real situation like that you'd end up probably arrested or investigated, he fails.
This should have been the turning point. When we actually see Bakugou break down. When the class has stepped away from him. When the only one sticking around is Kirishima because the guy honestly thinks Bakugou can be a better person.
Key phrase: CAN BE. Not that he is. I want it to be clear Kirishima sees good in Bakugou and wants to bring it out. Not that Bakugou is secretly a tsundere.
This is the turning point became it leads to the LOV attacking the camp looking for Bakugou because they see him like them. I want them to have noticied his antics in the festival where he is aggressive and loud. I'd like for Aoyama to have been feeding info about recruits. I want Bakugou to hear they want HIM as he's villainous and this should shake him.
He isn't kidnapped. Someone else is. Tokoyami actually to bring focus to mutation and Quirk discrimination.
I want Bakugou to truly have to look at HIMSELF as a person. And realize he isn't what he wants to be. A hero.
This leads into him eventually becoming a much better person as he works through his shit. Its going to be messy. And I want him to struggle through it. While doing so he slowly fades into the background. We turn attention to Uraraka, Todoroki, Tsu, Aoyama and Iida as the secondary characters to our protagonist Izuku.
We get to know them, we get to know Aoyama as he integrates himself into their circle. We have way more of a punch for the traitor.
In the end I want an apology from Bakugou to Izuku that is meaningful and honest and then… he goes off, becomes a hero ranked like 150 and is happy. He's buddies with Kirishima and a few others, he goes to the reunion with a hi. Maybe the offer of a team up or not.
And I think that would have been the perfect ending to his arc. From the bully to the atoner.
Kento Nanami, a hardworking sorcerer from Tokyo, abides solely by the world in front of him. Tiana Baker, a recent college graduate from New Orleans, is no different. When a curse-ridden anomaly forces their paths to intertwine, they must contend with their own rigid ways of thinking, and with whether they belong in each other’s lives.
Wishes. Dreams.
Can there ever be a place for such silly, childish things?
((Never directly linked my fic! If you like Tiana and Nanami, then check it out!))
And this one is about Dabi, bc I think he was done dirty so much (just like Izu) and I have to say....I don't like how dabi is closer to Natsu, a 8 years old, over Yumi.
I get the reason and have seen many discussion about Dabi and Natsu, trust me. But Yumi was there....she is their sister but is she like the maid or smth? I'm serious bc when Rei was gone I know the chores fall to Yumi who is the only girl in the house (mind you, Endy is rich enough to have more helpers "maybe he did and we don't know" ok fair, but the emotional labour fall to Yumi)
And yes Dabi was just parroting his father's sexism (when dabi wake up from the coma he wanted to apologize to his mom and sister, so is not as if he hated them. I do agree it's and should be nuanced ...) but we aren't allowed to see Toya and Yumi bonding? Did Toya ignored his sister and went straight to vent to a 8 years old boy?
Feels odd (not odd, in the sense "I don't believe it" but in the sense "it's forced, Toya had someone closer in age to talk") bc why not talk to his sister? Was she pro endy even back then? But Toya wanted his attention so his sister being pro endy wouldn't be an issue unless she told him to try be smth else.
Just saying it's ...strange how Yumi is ignored when she is closer of age to Toya. Dabi and Natsu have a bonding but not Yumi...bc she is a girl.
Did Dabi unlearn his sexism way? Look, as much "sexist dabi" are funny jokes...I never saw him, the adult dabi, as sexist. Endy? Yes. Dabi, the crazy villain not (not saying Dabi is feminist king or any shit, but like he never gave me the vibe of being "woman make me a sandwich!")
Just wondering here.
Hi @mikeellee 👋
I think it makes sense why Touya was closer to Natsou than to fuyumi. Now, when I say that, I mean that Touya simply talked to and opened up more to Natsou, not that he and fuyumi didn't have a relationship at all. The Canon material shows that they had a sibling relationship but they weren't particularly as close compared to touya and Natsou and I do think this stems from Touya's own mysgonistic beliefs that were instilled into him by Enji's behaviour. I do want to clarify that Touya's mysgonistic beliefs aren't presented as a LOUD BARRIER to his relationship with fuyumi and his mother, but they are still quite a present and persistent barrier that needs to be acknowledged. Yes, Touya cares for his mother and sister, and he did feel guilty after waking up from his coma, but that doesn't negate the fact that he has some concerning beliefs that taint his own perception of the women in the todoroki household.
That's to say I believe that Touya did use to open up to fuyumi but as time went on he slowly distanced himself away and began relaying on Natsou a lot more due to him viewing him and Natsou to be more similar again a mysognistic belief that is highlighted in these 2 pages.
Touya still seems to have a relationship with his sister before his death. However, I would argue that it's a lot more distant now than, especially with their differing beliefs on the matters of the household. Fuyumi craves a normal life and a normal happy family, which causes her to pretend everything is fine and try and do damage control on what she could while Touya knew fully what was going on with the family and abs hated all of it causing him to actively go against his parents wishes and rebel.
They still seem to be close as Touya does accept her invitation to play with her and Natsou. However, I would argue that Fuyumi now has a closer relationship to Natsou than to Touya, and the same is applicable to Touya.
Again, I do wish we got more flashbacks and differing perspectives from the todoroki family, especially from Fuyumi's perspective.
Before the incident, it is stated in chapter 302 that Enji did hire help but it was only to look after Shoto which does mean that the responsibility of the 3 children did fall mainly to Rei and I do believe that a gold chunk of the manual and emotional labour fell onto Fuyumi as well after her mother was hospitalised. I do think it is a possibility that Enji did hire someone to look after them however, I find it unlikely that the person stayed long at all or that they done much in general and I think from what we see it is heavily implied that after their mother's hospitalisation Fuyumi is the one to handle the labour requited to be fulfilled.
I don't think that the reason Touya was distant with fuyumi was that she was pro enji but more due to their differing views about what they want and how they individually process the situation they are in mixed in with Touya's mysgoiny. However, I do believe that Touya unlearns this after he becomes Dabi yet it is a shame that Horikoshi never showed us when and how (probably because it would paint enji in a bad light and it would need to be told from Dabi's perspective)

Now that the first episode of the season is out, I can finally comment on how hilariously intense the meeting of the Upper Moons was.
Like, we really watched (I, even paid money to see in the cinema) the equivalent of Akaza just taking the elevator to the office, pass by the recepcionist, get greeted by the one coworker he can’t fucking stand, get chewed up by the boss like every Monday and having to insist to his bitchass coworker that he’d rather die than go ‘hang out’ after work.
We really saw that but with an animation budget that’s off the charts.
