he hyperfixated on heroes, researching and looking into their strategies in fights and what their strengths and weaknesses were. probably frequented hero rankings and started arguments in comments
when he was younger he was super into dogs because of mon. it was his idea to get mon-chan so he did a lot of research and went on spiels daily about different dog breeds to his mum and hana
whenever kurogiri would show a little interest in one of his games he would ramble ENDLESSLY. talking about what game is was, what characters were his fav and why, strategies to win and possible cheats or shortcuts he had read about or figured out himself. he would infodump so much about whatever game he was playing, and kurogiri would always listen.
tomura struggled when the others first joined the league. he didn’t know how to talk to them at all. he’d miss hints from others or little social queues that they thought were obvious. but tomura would also notice tiny details that even they didn’t know. like little habits they picked up when in conversations or meetings.
tomuras scratching isn’t always because of the “need to destroy” like afo had tried to make him believe. he used it as a way to stim when he would think up strategies and solutions as well as just keep his hands busy.
he has a really bad attention span. he has to have multiple things going at once to keep his mind busy because otherwise he’ll cycle through 3 different activities and that annoys him.
tomura is a chronic snacker and as much as kurogiri tried to give him a routine to keep his nutrition up tomura just couldn’t stick to it.
he’s also chronically nauseous. from either lack of food or eating too much at once or from being nervous about something he always feels a little sick
he’s also always sleepy.
he doesn’t like eye contact. unless he’s the one initiating it. afo had tried to train it into him that eye contact was a good tool to have, so he’d always force tomura to maintain eye contact during whatever afo dragged him into whether it be lectures or monologues afo would always try make sure tomuras eye contact was consistent. when afo was locked away however tomura dropped the habit super quick. he hates holding eye contact and usually only does it if 1. it’s someone he tolerated talking to (like spinner) or 2. he’s using it as a way to gain leverage in a situation.
the first one shoot me in the head and kept shooting
the first time i wrote a poem that gutted me, the killer lines were:
who am i, when i lose all the things that make me me?
just a body?
i thought i was supposed to be a deity.
i just did it again.
we're both better off now,
but i don't want "better";
i want you.
ok, I'll stop rewatching the episode 🙄
Every Nico Di Angelo fan focusing more on the background of the episode than the actual plot
I'm killing myself
Please just shot me
my idgaf friend told me i changed her life today and yes I'm totally crying abt that today (of happiness)
"would you lie to someone if it'd help/protect them?" is such a funny question. buddy I'd lie to someone if it means i get five minutes of peace. I'd lie for a pepsi can. I'd lie for literally no fucking reason. i don't have any psychological issues btw
i started watching Arcane for a while now, it's a really good show btw, the story is just amazing and the characters are *chef kiss* but now I can only imagine things in Arcane's art style for some reason
and since my thoughts are 85% just Tomura Shigaraki I can only think of him in Arcane art style and honestly is so fucking beautiful, it's almost divine I swear
plsplsplspls I need an artist to draw him in this art style, I'm DYING to see him in this art style
i saw many different opinions on shimura tenko vs. shigaraki tomura, and the most are saying that they don’t want tomura to become ‘tenko’ again, because they’re afraid it would invalidate his experience as shigaraki. but the thing is that ‘shigaraki tomura’ is someone who afo created. shigaraki tomura isn’t his own person. ‘perfect’ shigaraki tomura in the way afo envisioned him isn’t fully a person at all - he’s an extension of afo. he’s someone who was moulded and groomed into being what afo wants - a mess of hatred, madness, pain, anger, - someone who doesn’t have a sense of self, afo’s submissive hollow shell to hold and house the man’s conscience. this persona and this name was imposed onto him.
‘but tomura is more than that!’ yeah, he is. you know why? shigaraki wasn’t created from nothing. he may be shigaraki tomura, but the foundation? shimura tenko? he never went anywhere. just like dabi is still touya, tomura is still tenko. but tenko IS a person. he cares for his friends, he’s angry about the injustice of this world, he’s funny, he’s smart, he likes to play videogames, he makes funniest faces, he’s determined, he hates his father and the way his family never protected him, yet he loved them, he feels sick when he kills people, he wants the world to change, he’s someone.
that’s why he screams ‘no’ and that’s why he remembers his childhood home where his own hatred began. because ‘shigaraki tomura’ afo wants isn’t someone who the person with that name really is or wants to be. accepting himself as shimura tenko wouldn’t invalidate anything, it would be finally shaking off afo’s expectations and visions for him and be able to be his own person and choose his own way
im tired of people having these little nuances like i was talking about the word hate and i said “i hate nazis” and my friend was like hmm hates a strong word. for nazis ? no the fuck it is not. i could use stronger words too. i could curbstomp their sorry asses. i hate nazis and you all better hate nazis too
