Do you block people in the same fandom as you just because you don't like their takes?
This sequence of panels reads like a daytime tv drama.
Inasa (glaring dramatically): I'll despise you to the end of days. You have the cold eyes of your father.
Shouto: (*404 error noises*)
Izuku (playing the role of Shouto's MPDG): Oh no Todoroki-kun do you want to talk about your feelings?
Toga (as Camie): Hey ~~
Izuku: (*terrified bluescreen noises*)
Ochako (in ten layers of denial): Am I jealous she was flirting with my hetero not-crush or because she reminds my girl not-crush?

I have no excuse for this other than it was 3am and I had a fever of 101 and hadn’t drawn in days.

Okay. Okay real talk here, just for a moment.
“Being born quirkless in a world where most everyone has a quirk of some kind” is a pretty solid premise. Gives us the whole “rooting for the underdog” theme from the get-go. Izuku gets rejected at every turn for wanting more than anything to be a hero, and he’s rejected every time due to having no quirk. I get it. I get that. I see that.
But also, I just need to say, I lose my mind every time I rewatch episode 1. Every goddamn time and it’s strictly because of this screenshot.
These are. These are Izuku’s classmates. The ones pursuing the hero track. Somehow the series’ world-building just glosses over the fact that ¾ of the quirked populace has stupid fucking quirks. That seems important. That’s a big fucking deal. Like Horikoshi could only draw so many background characters before going “fuck it, he’s got fucking stretchy fingers that’s his fucking quirk”.
That fucker in the middle. That fucking stupid snail-boy. What’s he gonna do? Is he gonna spy on villains by looking over a wall that’s one foot taller than he is? “Oh shit boss, he’s looking above eye-level, we’re screwed now boss” It’s called a ladder shit-idiot. Like?? Fuck?! Snail-boy here’s gonna just, make some fucking bolas with his eyeballs? Gonna fucking lasso some villains with his bolas-fucking eyes, this stupid motherfucker? I could punch snail boy in his bitch mouth and I don’t have a quirk.
LIKE
THEY TAKE THE PISS OUTTA IZUKU FOR HAVING DREAMS OF HERO-DOM WHILE BEING QUIRKLESS. LIKE HE’S THE ONLY FUCKER IN THE CLASS NOT CUT OUT FOR THE JOB.
BUT EVERYONE ELSE HAS “WONDERFUL QUIRKS”
THIS STUPID MOTHER FUCKER DOESNT HAVE SILLY PUTTY EYEBALLS GUESS HE CAN’T FUCKING SAVE PEOPLE.
