Drew Izuku And His Poor Fashion Choices

I brought some flowers! *someone smells it but gets sprayed with water* Oh no!

tragic. 37 clowns were killed today in a devastating one car pile up.

when you died protecting your crush but you came back to life so now it’s awkward

YOU MONSTERS WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS

happy bkdk valentines 💌🙈🙈!!!

canon that Dabi smells ass

Most of the time, I wish people wouldn't water down characters to fit in the mould of romance—– But I do understand that fiction is often an escape from reality, and fans perceive art the way they need to.

But I really love BKDK.

And I wish people would realize that, without watering down the intensity of a character, the reality of the dynamic is far superior in it's rawest form.

The growth driven by respect they have for each other. The admiration and recognition through setting each other as their own standards.

Twin blades—– clashing, TRANSCENDING affection and reassurances.

Sparring, fighting and racing each other out of pure Respect. Hand holding? No, collar grabbing and screaming:

"I will surpass you."

"I see your greatness and I will mold myself into your worthy adversary."

I promise you—– that the accuracy of how egoistical, competitive and fragile Bakugo is... is exactly what makes BKDK thrilling.

I think it would be beautiful if more people recognized that love in it's purest form, is deeper than just the surfaces of physical affection and verbal affirmations. The reassurance that your existence matters, through admiration and sometimes both art and people, softness of love lies in what was never communicated directly.

True admiration isn't contingent on praise. It’s recognizing a person's depth, their struggle, and their brilliance without needing to demand it be reflected back. The most profound love often doesn't shout; it whispers in the spaces between words, in the gestures that go unnoticed.

I hope that people recognize that unconditional love does exist, and it's BKDK—– in their rawest form.

“The last drop—

You’re sending me signs.

I hear you, can you hear me?

Everything turns blue

when I dive in.

The sting of chlorine

burns just a little—

so I let go.”

Bakugou slowly takes the role of Izuku's protector and I love to see it.

During the Tartarus escapees arc, Izuku has been dehumanized so much, it's insane. When I say dehumanized, I'm talking about how many people treat him like the vessel of One for All and not like a 16yo boy or a human being with feelings anymore.

"Nomu", "Number nine"

Meanwhile, Bakugou calls him by his name..

"You're the key to all of this. We can't have you dying on us."

like "If you die it's gonna be bad bc nobody can fight AFO anymore" and not "you don't deserve to die plz take care"

"please let him rest so he can fight properly"

and not "because he suffers so much and deserves rest"

I could make a long list of that but my point is, the more we go into the story and the more people prioritize saving the world over Izuku's well being, treating him like a robot to repair like they're just willing to sacrifice Izuku ('s mental health/life) and bakugou is having none of it.

Ever since he learned about OFA and AFO, he started to help Izuku training out of worry.

While the others want Izuku to be stronger so he can beat AFO, bakugou wants him to be stronger so he can survive. He's worried about losing izuku the most. As simple as that. A lot care about Izuku as well of course, but most still think beating AFO is more important than giving a kid a healthy happy long life.

Bakugou totally noticed it and it makes him mad. He yelled at All Might, his idol and the man he respect the most, for hiding something about the fourth user to Izuku when Bakugou knew secrets might be harmful to Izuku physically or psychologically since even though everyone noticed that Izuku was mentally drowning under pressure, they didn't really do anything worth noting to support him (until class 1A brought him back to UA)

Bakugou never mentioned AFO when he talked about bringing Izuku back because it's not his priority at all.

He's literally just dead worried for his friend.

Please, the first thing he asked him after being separated for weeks, with a war and a coma in between, was if Izuku was able to smile.

He genuinely cares so much about Izuku's safety and mental health it makes me want to cry. Bakugou went from being the boy's bully to his legit protector, so dare tell me otherwise.

During the battle with Shigaraki, he constantly had his eyes fixed on Izuku to be sure he wouldn't do anything risky and the moment Izuku really left his side to attack, Bakugou was pissed.

and he ended up saving Izuku, almost sacrificing for him. Not for a strategic purpose to keep OFA. His body literally moved on its own and all he could think about was everything Izuku and him went through. He wanted to save his childhood friend.

Honestly at this point I can confidently say that if Deku's death was the only solution to defeat/kill AFO then bakugou would prefer not to win. The guy who's obsessed with victory would totally prefer to lose than to have Izuku killed, that's a fact.

Now despite the apology, I dont think Izuku really understands how dedicated Bakugou is to protect him yet. I can't wait to see how their relationship will evolve.

Of course Bakugou isn't the only one who cares more about Izuku's life than OFA (class 1A, All Might, etc) but Bakugou's character development still has me crying.

I love that togachako are always holding hands. go girls!!!!

It’s all coming together now ❇️✴️

No guys but am I crazy or did the epilogue confirmed Katsuki was like... CANONICALLY in love with Izuku and he got heartbroken.

Like I feel like I am going crazy, the panels where they say goodbye to each other and how Katsuki stands there watching Izuku walk away until he gets lost in the crowd and thinks to himself "nobody's special... no one's actually special".

The way it is framed, the city lights, what Katsuki thinks (probably REFERRING TO HIMSELF), the way he says bye to Izuku. His reaction to Izuku saying he can't join.

He was clearly longing for him... there is no way it's not at least implied he loves Izuku.
