2023:

So I read a poem of yours a long time ago and it really impacted me. I've had this in my head for years and finally got the nerve to work it out

im actually obsessed with this

yeah

does anyone else have this other self they’ve created in their mind that is not really exactly you irl but is more like what you want to be and has a life that continues in your head with like weird continuing daydreams but they’re not perfect or anything and wow i forgot where i was going with this

i made a little quiz. it has gentle wisdom to take with you. whatever i can give you is yours. love u. take the wisdom & run.

HOT TAKE: BAKUGOU CAN NOT TRULY EXCEL AS A CHARACTER, LET ALONE A HERO, UNTIL HE FULLY ACKNOWLEDGES, EVALUATES, AND UNDERSTANDS HIS PAST ACTIONS AGAINST IZUKU.

At the moment bakugou is nowhere near my favorite character, and I don’t see it changing any time soon. I think the only way I’ll truly even consider him in a positive light is if he acknowledges his actions. Even better, the narrative brings his and izuku’s past to the forefront and everyone understands that his and izuku’s issues are not a mutual equal footed rivalry. But the result of years of one kid getting away with shitty behavior because marking fights on his record would “ruin his future”. And another one getting ignored because society views him as disabled and “he still plays with bakugou, how could something bad be happening?” -(their teachers, at one point, probably)

@bionicdragonguardian1 

I don’t think you are biased at all because I feel like Katsuki shouldn’t have been muzzled AT ALL let alone on national tv. (And i actually also have a graudge against him as well but i know chaining him up and muzzling him is wrong.) 

It was messed up and i didn’t see the point in doing it. He didn’t believe he did his best to earn the reward, why try to force it on him? 

I also think the way everyone, not just All might, handled the fall out of Kamino because i thought ‘Yay, maybe the kids will start getting therapy’ (becuase after all the shit they went through they need therapy and they need to talk about it) but no. They didn’t even give Katsuki therapy. Which i really don’t get because he was the one kidnapped??? being traumatized is a thing??? 

I have a small grudge against All Might

Before anyone comes after me, I do NOT hate him. I actually love his character and appreciate All Might very much. I just hold a small grudge against him, and probably always will. I’m sorry if any of this offends anyone.

In my opinion, All might is kind of a dick and can be socially inept sometimes and end up saying something hurtful because he doesn’t know how much of an impact his words can have on a person as the number one hero. He is just so fucking oblivious to how people feel, how his words can impact, and how people started out.

I’ll only name a few examples of this because i don’t have much time

First off, when All Might and Izuku had that conversation on the roof in the beginning of season 1, He just left Izuku on the fucking roof alone. he left Izuku there alone right after he crushed Izu’s dreams. I get it, All might was in a rush and was running out of his hero time and I know he didn’t know Izuku was suicide baited probably less than an hour ago but still. He knew Izu was quirkless. He knows what being quirkless feels like because he was at one point himself. And I know that there were more quirkless kids when All Might was Izuku’s age but kids are mean. Society is mean. All Might probably got ridiculed, I wouldn’t be surprised. With that, All Might does know that there are a lot less quirkless kids in Izuku’s generation. All Might should have realized Izuku has been through shit the moment he said he was quirkless. He shouldn’t have left Izuku or anyone for that matter on a roof alone after crushing their dreams.

Also, That’s just fucking biased as shit for people, not just All Might but society in general, to think a quirkless person can’t become a hero.

And then, later, When All Might comes back to tell Izuku that he can be a hero, he doesn’t fucking apologize to Izuku. That is not okay. You don’t just crush someone’s dreams, just to turn around later that very day to say that their dreams can come true, then on top of that, NOT. EVEN. FUCKING. APOLOGIZE.????? Talk about a dick move.

And All Might is supposed to be Izuku’s mentor, he knows One For All reacts and works a little differently for each holder (Gran Torino even points this out himself by saying that All Might got the hang of One For All quicker and didn’t break himself too much but that Izuku is having a harder time with it) but All Might acts like things that worked for him and One For All are going to work for Izu and One For All, when that’s not true.

When Izuku got One For All, All Might, and i know he was trying to help, i understand that, pretty much just said go give it a feel. I really do understand that All Might was trying to help but Izuku had no idea what he was doing. He’s never had a quirk before yet he was just given one with no idea how to use it then pushed into battle? 

I have very complicated feelings for All Might because everything above did happen but that doesn’t mean he hasn’t been there and helped Izuku. As far as i know, All Might is the first person to believe in Izuku and give him a chance. This is why I don’t hate All Might because he isn’t a bad person, just does dick-ish things sometimes and is pretty oblivious.

What this really comes down to is that All Might needs to learn how much of an impact his words have on people because he is a pillar of peace that could make or break someone.

What if Izuku became a villain or a vigilante in cannon because of what All Might said?

He can’t think that all he needs to do is smile and defeat villains. Words need to be said and they need to be true from the heart, not from the brain. And with that you can’t say one thing and then say the opposite only a few hours later, it’s rude and heart breaking, especially since people look up to him.

I hope All Might one day learns that his words mean a lot to people and I hope he apologizes to Izuku.
