God I hate it when I just have a word stuck in my head, why would I need to use Roaring as an adjective in any scenario?
Am I writing fan-fiction?
Yes, yes I am.
Tried to redesign the riders to be a little more believable? … as in convincing but not historically accurate? Tried taking the ac:Valhalla approach, I think they look kinda cool (pls ignore hiccup he was my test & I can’t get him to look any better but this is more abt design than polish I guess)
The helmets were kind of a nightmare and irl Viking’s defo wouldn’t wear any of those designs but I wanted it to still feel like their helmets. Snotlout esp needed his horns they’re too cute I’m sorry.
Holy fuck a full break down hell yeah!
Love a good quirk breakdown and Tail Splitter is such an interesting one.
hello everyone. sometimes i make this mistake called "thinking too hard about bnha" and then setsunas quirk torments me for two months and next thing you know im knee deep in scientific papers about tunicates. many such cases. horikoshi really made me have to work to integrate the lizard portion in, because her regeneration is nothing like lizard tail regeneration at all, actually
please forgive me if my science is off, im a paralegal looking to go into art history, everything i know is just from my bio 102 class and my love of reading scientific journals i barely understand 🙏😭
This is part of the reason that I don't like when people characterize him as being this really stoic emotionally unavailable character, because he is super emotionally available, but he just isn't emotionally intelligent if that makes sense.
He's just a really sweet guy who happens to be rather dense, not dense in that he doesn't recognise peoples emotion but rather in that he isn't super good at social cues in working out why people tend to feel those emotions.
But I really do love how he puts away all of his pride, which honestly Shoto doesn't seem to have a lot of to instantly give her the motivation, I know canonically it was because they were both heavily reliant on their quirks but I think it was also because of Shoto's self confidence, well less so confidence just he lacked the care for what other thought of him in a sense, he get's over himself without question because.
A. That get's them the win
B. Put's her back in the game
He knows she's competent, massively so as can be seen by her dissection of the Training Fight in which she broke down why everyone got their scores, and she out maneuvered him in the sports fest, I think he was in a way rather distraught that she was feeling so bad for herself, because to him, why would she have to feel so put out, it was one bad match up.
But to get back on topic in some way, I think it's cute that he tries really hard to help her through out the exam and even afterwards with Kamino and the Hood attack.
We don't talk enough about how Todoroki goes out of his way to see Momo happy in that final exam arc. He:
Notices Momo is nervous about the practical and comes up with an idea for the both of them
Reassures her when the exam starts and listens to her concerns
Tries to protect her the moment he knows Aizawa is nearby
Immediately fucking shelves his ego and plans when his teacher tells him to believe in his partner
Tells Momo about his confidential vote for class president, because he knows it will give her the confidence she needs to have someone she admires, admire her back
Fucking basically offers to massage her foot when he sees her starts crying?! This boy, I swear...
Todoroki himself is sleeping on it but this man has game
Man you can tell that Zuko had some hand in his design and personality that just looks like him.
That's freaky.
Also Momo's hair looks super cool with that mixed colour scheme, almost Raspberry Ripple like.
for the palette swap, what about shouto and momo??
Seeing Todo in red is setting alarms off in my head, idk why LOL
WOH WOH WOH YES, THE COLOURS AND THE STYLING MHHH YES GOURGOUS.
Caitlin's Shoes, you know what all of the clothing choices are so good.
Makes sense to me that Denki would have some form of small wheeled transport, he had a 1:30 hour journey by Train from Saitama to get to UA, makes sense the he was a Skater Boy.
I’m pretty sure they never show in the anime how they got to class?? But I love the idea that Denki used to show up to UA in his skateboard before they stayed at the dorms, also idk I feel like Bakugo it’s his dad’s baby and he used to take him to class when he wasn’t busy like PLEASE
The sly hawk got him monologuing.
Hawks tricked him into a classic villain monologue to stall for time hahaha you fell for the oldest trick in the book AFO
