I really, rly do think that Shigaraki's quirk does not destroy everything he touches, but instead destroys everything he hates, and that's why AFO has to keep him in a state of hating everything. Just realized I've never made this thought its own post but it's a longstanding one

In MHA, one thing you have to remember is that we’re limited to the POV of the character whose eyes we’re looking through. For example, in Bakugo’s head, the chapter that Midoriya titles “Deku vs Kacchan Part 1” is actually Deku vs Kacchan Part 4,390

The hero killer arc featured Tenya carrying a heavy burden by himself & trying to keep it hidden, and a friend being just intuitive enough to see it in time to save him. Tenya feels a responsibility to pay that forward! He also doesn’t mean this unkindly toward his classmates

TW rape—You don’t need to want the SA read of AFOFA and that’s fine. It’s not “making everything sexual.” It’s abt how AFO put his genetic material inside Yoichi in order to violate his bodily autonomy as much as possible & feel ownership of him. That’s what we’re talking about.

God Ochako was fully willing to die in order to make sure one person once had done the right thing for Himiko. Like she was fully willing to die for that I don't think she was even parsing it as any kind of exchange it was just an incidental consequence. Ochako

If AFO was “born evil” it would completely undermine MHA’s messaging that there aren’t just some people who are born bad. It’s not AFO apologism, it’s just… avoiding getting eugenicsy Also, not being in control of “how evil you are” would defang, almost FORGIVE, the evil.

...AFO gets a visible-eyes covered-mouth panel this chapter. I think that gives us. Some insight. Into what he is feeling. Eyes are honest emotion, mouths are narrative-maker. He FEELS he's been robbed of power that he deserves and needs. He didn't get to write the story.

I wish people would ask questions in good faith instead of immediately going “fuck off.” I think a lot of people’s first experience with the word “incest” is in a genre of fiction that treats it as consensual and don’t realize it’s a word for abuse which needs no modification

Some are tired of stories about being able to save ppl but I think what folks miss is that MHA is not a response to hopeful stories. It responds to some stories, but it is also to a reality that doesnt save people. Asking why Jin isn’t “people” if heroes save people is about irl.

There are two ingredients to being saved in MHA. Someone has to give help that you aren't ready to ask for, and you have to be able to feel that You, Too, Can Be A Hero. Toga's talking about how maybe if she had felt like that sooner, she would've felt like life was worth more

There is a specific kind of violation inherent in this type of abuse- a kind of violation that AFO specifically wants to commit- that feels like anything from a worthy metaphor (for a horrible, horrible act of evil) to potentially an implication of other, similar acts.

What’s particularly important to me about this is that in all of the previous instances shown here it’s silent in his head. That’s what “giving help that isn’t asked for is the essence of being a hero” is about. No one should have needed this child to ask.

The reason Toga learns that she and Jin aren't human to hero society is that hero society exists "to save people." They aren't "people." They're a threat to "people." No matter how much they have saved each other, no matter where she or Jin would be without the League.

This isnt a response to any one particular post, it's an idea I've seen floating around a lot: Reminder that, in MHA, wanting to be saved is not a prerequisite to being saved In fact, it thrusts a spotlight on how that can't be the prerequisite. Giving help that isn't asked for.

That's why the villains will become heroes. Not to pay the price to deserve to live. But because the problem at the heart of MHA is disempowerment. Because they need to KNOW that they, too, can be a hero—that the way they are matters within a community they are a part of.

There are corners of AFOFA fandom that I won’t touch with a ten foot pole, believe me. But many of us don’t want this to be what happened to Yoichi, but do want to discuss it, because there is a worthy story (of a horrible evil act) that seems told on purpose.

@HelgaGrin I kicked off the OFAswap AU AFTER this reveal and oh my God the backbending required. Yes Eighth!Creati’s body is constantly using Creation to repair itself, no she literally does not know how long and extensively it has been doing that

Thinking again abt Izuku as the only OFA successor who gets to well and truly save his predecessor, and Toshinori as the only predecessor who gets to well and truly stay by his successor’s side

The reason the Hero Killer Arc kicks off the entire series' tone shift is because it's actually just built to explain everything that is about to happen. Esp when the series was planned to be shorter, like— that's an arc built to do LIKE 75% of the theme set-up

Iida & Deku's friendship is so easy to glom onto. I love so many of the plots here but for Iida & Deku all you really need to imagine is one of them going "you're the first person I thought to call" & the other going "thank you for that" & in ANY context I'm already on the floor

I love it when people explain the shit I don’t understand in MHA to me. Truly, I would not understand Hawks or Yoichi or Shoto as well without other peoples posts. I just enjoy explaining what I think about Tenya when someone says a scene doesn’t make sense. xkcd “lucky 10,000”

Please do not be hostile about “reading comprehension.” For one, the scene actually is kind of hard to read, and for another the original post at this time has no retweets, 19 likes, and 10 quote retweets. It’s just a random post

@habkart @antleredCouncil These two are really good, actually, I'm kind of immediately onboard. Yeah. The fact that u made me stare at three drawings of a ship and go "oh yeah I see exactly how this works and it's just IC and really good" has GOT to be a testament to the expressiveness of ur art

just realized that if Shinso goes to Class A, which he almost definitely will, MonoShin becomes my literally fucking favorite ship situation to throw Monoma into: Forbidden Lovers (forbidden only by Monoma) he recites Romeo and Juliet lines about it he will not shut up

AFO going "you reap what you sow, Endeavor!!" and not believing that the combined force of Yoichi, people who loved Yoichi, people who loved someone who loved someone who [...] who loved Yoichi, and Tomura Shigaraki are going to ruin his game... is HILARIOUS cognitive dissonance

Thinking about SeroIida's mutual friend Shoto again Hanta, via text: ok but he's not like. seeing anyone, right Shoto, texting back hours later: I mean, not that I'm aware of Hanta: why would you not be aware of that don't you hang out all the time

I still can’t believe that peoples read of the hero killer arc is that tenya has anger issues. Like that he just gets angry more easily than other people, and anger wells up inside him. Like, yeah, the way he does anger is autistic, but also someone tried to kill his brother

The thing abt evil as a choice is sometimes the evil thing is the easier choice & that’s the reason a person does it. And that’s why I think it’s extremely good that OFA was born from not only Yoichi’s resistance but also 2nd choosing to do good despite it being infinitely harder
