My Thoughts On Shinsou

My thoughts on Shinsou

So about Shinsou: The first thing we see Shinsou do is talk down to 1-A and talking about how he wants to be in the hero course. I was expecting him to therefore be someone who tries really hard despite everything to be a hero.

Unfortunately as seen in his fight with Midoriya he is nothing like that. Shinsou talks shit to Midoriya about quirks and discrimination but when Midoriya breaks free of the mind control, he wins easily. Someone who wants to be a hero should definitely be able to throw a punch or dodge. Instead he instantly loses. This scene proves to me that he isn't hero material at all. Not to mention the fact that he was talking to Midoriya of all people about being looked down upon because of his quirk.

Midoriya is someone who has faced far more quirk based adversity than Shinsou and this scene felt like it was setting up for a moment between the two boys (or at least some kind of comparison or parallel).

One of Shouji's main things is that people find him scary so he wears a mask. He has clearly been seen as a villain but he's not an asshole like Shinsou is.

At this point Shinsou seems like a perfect rival for Midoriya. They both have quirk related issues, they both want to be heroes, and they both have reasons to interact. Midoriya because he wants to help Shinsou like he did Todoroki and Shinsou because he clearly likes to tell people he wants to beat them.

Shinsou very clearly could have, and should have been everything Bakugou is. And unlike Bakugou he doesn't have 12 years of abusive history to slow him down. Instead Horikoshi rarely brings him up and fans fawn over him despite the fact he's just a loser jerk.

Canon Shinsou has nothing redeeming about him and hasn't improved one bit. Aizawa favours him and gives him special treatment and never seems to berate him for verbally abusing both Midoriya and Ojiro (who he called a monkey). At least in the lightnovels we see him feel remorse for what he said to Ojiro (but not for Midoriya).

At the very least his hero motivation could be to uplift those with so called villain quirks but even his hero motivation seems to be non-existent. All in all Shinsou had so much opportunity to be an interesting character but instead his lack of character development paints him as nothing but a jerk and a bully, proving once again that Horikoshi hates all character development.

Maybe he would have had the time to improve his character if a certain someone (Bakugou) didn't take up most of the character time.

Tsubomi is probably aroace, honestly. Being queer in a predominantly non-queer setting can be quite isolating, which has its own additional aspects for aro and ace people, since we can't just translate the general experience of romance into something that makes sense to us the way people who do experience attraction can. She's described as having some distance between herself and her friends, and she doesn't seem to have interest in anyone romantically. When in the epilogue, it's revealed that Mob rekindled his friendship with her after all, it's not portrayed as being indicative of any romantic subtext. It's just what it is: a rekindled friendship.

Middle school is a time where a lot of allo people start to realize what kinds of people they're into, so it's a confusing time for aro and ace people. It's hard to pinpoint an absence, after all, and the world is so amatonormative. There's an expectation that wanting a straight romance with one other person is the norm, and anything else is thrown to the side. It's just as hard for people to realize they want something different as it is for people to realize they don't want any of it. Tsubomi's distance from her friends and her disinterest in any of the guys who asked her out seem to fit this.

Differences between ENFP and ENFJ:

ENFJ: I'm so tired of studying for my double degree all day but I've just started a new poetry book! It's divided in three parts, even though I haven't thought about the design of the book yet. Probably minimalistic.

ENFP: well I just identified the specific region in Italy where a tiktoker lives based on his accent, asked in the comments if I was correct and he's the one who replied. I was right. We're basically best friends now. Also check this video I made while procrastinating.

Wonder if it's canon or not that the poison was actually for Hakuji but since he wasn't at home that time, Koyuki and Keizo were killed instead.

Proship/proshipper means pedophile. It has always meant pedophile. I've been here long enough to remember the emergence of this term. It was made specifically to replace the acronyms MAP and NOMAP because people started to catch on to the fact that they also meant pedophile. Whoever told you it was about freedom of expression or ship wars or whatever bullshit was lying to you. It's specifically another pretty little term that's just vague enough for pedophiles and other creepy people to rally under publicly. That's it.
