Getting Into Bnha Through Fandom-blind Fic Reading Has Been Such A Wild Ride Like What Do You Mean Kirishima

wow guess we’re doing this again

90s style

i love spike spiegel and angry naruto

friendly reminder that both Kirishima and Kaminari were created to bring the class together

stop staring at me with them big ol eyes

Horikoshi better let the purple boi join the hero curriculum and be that one awful Theatre Kid™

todoroki’s costume should have retractable ice skates

me: . . . maybe all might isn't as much of a physical wreck as you tend to think he is

also me: alright but if we run with the fact that he was the Number One Hero WORLDWIDE then he must have been through a lot so his face is probably really messed up - little scars, a twisted nose, maybe even uneven cheekbones from getting hit in the face all the time, which would also hamper his vision. also, the injury probably messed up his hip and spine so him having a limp or needing to walk with a cane or crutches or using a wheelchair really isn't much of a stretch. and there's probably spots all over his body that just don't have functional nerves either from damage or general wear-and-tear, so he has these numb spots that sometimes randomly hurt when the air pressure changes.

I have been seeing posts about how people who have been bullied project onto Midoriya and don’t accept Bakugou’s apology need to get over themselves and how sad it is they can’t move on. And…I don’t know, it just strikes me as insensitive and tasteless to just tell people to get over their trauma, like they can wash their hands clean of it simply. I was not bullied in school, but I have heard stories about how for some the bullying got so bad, they take their lives.

And to see people say, “The apology was to Midoriya, not to you, so just get over yourself”, when it can get to such degrees to a person makes me trust anything a Bakugou Stan says less and less. Trauma is trauma in my eyes, and some people can get over it, good for them, some can’t. So it’s okay to shit on their feelings? It’s like telling a victim of an abusive parent to get over it. Or an abusive relationship to get over it. Or a r*** victim to get over it.

Am I being overly sensitive? I just don’t trust individuals who tell strangers they have no idea what people went through how to live their lives as if it were that simple. If people are allowed to relate to Bakugou because of the one of two “positive traits” they personally see in him, then why aren’t people who were tormented and bullied like Izuku not able to relate to him and find the shit apology lackluster?

To me, this is what makes some Bakugou stans shitty people.

Like whichever character you want, I don't care. But how the fuck are you gonna get mad that people who were bullied hate his character? That's like telling victims of SA pr trafficking that they can't hate Endeavor. I was called the r-slur once for bringing up that out of everyone, victims of bullying have the right to hate on Bakugou's character.

Attacking real people- VICTIMS AT THAT- to defend a fictional piece of shit privileged bully is not what we should be striving for.

Izuku accepting/forgiving Bakugou is always the excuse Bakugou stans give. God forbid you bring up Izuku's lack of agency regarding Bakugou throughout the story. But even so, Izuku's a fictional character, one that's been proven to be biased and unable to advocate for himself. He's an unreliable narrator so him accepting Bakugou doesn't mean anything to me. Remember, he also defended Endeavor against Dabi.

I love him, but his POV is skewed when it comes to things like this.

No, you're not being overly sensitive. Attacking real people for not liking your favorite character (who reminds them of their trauma) is shitty

i forgot i made this the other day for some reason uh
