ko-fi request: "Gromit from Wallace and Gromit getting in a heated internet argument with other dogs on an older Dell computer, as Wallace walks in with saying "are ya winning, old chum?""
Now this is just what I wanted for Christmas.
i just watched polar express

mhhh funky
Pokémon but I once again badly edited Onion Headlines onto it
Part 1, Part 3
So turns out I my have been wrong about the heels, those aren't Kittens' what he's wearing are closer to Riding Heels.
So he might just like wearing, I believe if I am reading this correctly Fowler Straight heels, sorry for calling you a Twink buddy, you just like Cowboy boots.
This is why I headcanon you to be part American.
Firstly New Kamijirou art from that cool spread.
Secondly, am I tripping or is Denki wearing heels, those are heel right?
That man is not beating the Twink Allegations I swear because those aren't even like big heeled but flat, no those are heels.
Meanwhile Kyouka rocking it with the swagger whilst her twink of a boyfriend is, doing that.
Also as Rowan so eloquently put.
Twice
Do it.
Helps that her quirks power is directly linked to her heart rate so all the stress, fear and anger was boiling up in her heart making it's beats faster and stronger, which meant that her attack was likely at it's strongest in that moment.
Jirou realizing the gravity of Izuku and Aoyama's situation when facing AFO? It was a scary one and no child should be subjected to such horror. But it also showed a side of Jirou that I really like. Her protectiveness, getting angry for her friends? Wanting to throw hands with AFO because he made her friends cry? Shonen trope alright but I really like it when people are angrier when someone they love is violated. Like you can do anything to me but we draw the line there like "don't do anything to those I love!" It's so classic yet still riveting
This because after being on Twitter as the leaks were going live, some people really need to read this, fantastic breakdown!
Now having gotten somewhat used to the void in my chest I can finally drag all my thoughts about the epilogue into one pile
I know it may be getting old for some of you guys already, but I haven't seen some things being discussed anywhere
My problem with the ending is actually with the audience, I literally have almost no issues with how the epilogue is written, all the minor ones I have don't come from the epilogue but the previous plot building which wasn't perfect by all means.
1. People forget that this chapter isn't the Epilogue but the Epilogue pt. 2
TWO PARTS YOU KNOW
Please reread 430. You did? Now let's compare.
a) Can you see what the chapter is focused on? 430 is a lot more shallow, it focuses on facts and tries to contain all the changes at once and looks VERY rushed. Hori didn't have much time with his schedule, so of course he tried to fit all at once and nothing at all. This chapter is more about the system and facts, trying to answer the more crucial questions fans may have.
Chapter 430 has ~20 pages
431 has almost 40 (!)
b) 431 finally has time to look at the characters up close. Why there is so much about Uraraka? Well, because in the pt. 1 she's got one panel and a couple of words. That's why half the chapter is about her now, because she and Izuku are the male and female leads of the manga.
c) Why didn't we have more of Katsuki? Well, this character isn't very known for huge inner monologues and all this sappy stuff. We can get enough from character interaction and subtle cues, as always. Despite being a big asshole and a major loudmouth (I say this with all my love and adoration guys), Katsuki is a really stoic character. And this kind of character doesn't need a whole 5 pages writing down their motivation and inner thought process. I like this. This man remains the most conscious person here and has the greatest development in the series (and Shoto, sure, these two are on the whole other level compared to others in terms of writing)
Izuku and Ochako are more open to us, and it shows in the chapter's way of storytelling
And Shoto is still the most relatable dude here, me too, Shoto, me too...
2. Izuku is NOT shutting Katsuki out of his life. He basically invited him to TEACH TOGETHER just like Katsuki invited him to BE HEROES TOGETHER.
To me it shows clearly that these two just found their two paths that don't align fully. Izuku has been teaching for years after his quirk was gone. Sure, he still adores hero job, but he already has stability and purpose and it's IMPORTANT to him. He's only been back to heroics for a month after all. Izuku has matured significantly, and I respect that about his character even if it's not perfectly written.
"Izuku wouldn't ever decline the offer". Do I need to remind you that it's whole 8 years after their school days?
Imagine yourself 16, dreaming to start a rock band with your best friend. You're both so passionate about it, you think music is the most beautiful thing in your life and you'll never be over it.
But you get your fingers injured severely, and you can't play your guitar anymore. You're devastated, but your knowledge is valuable and you get a whole teaching degree and go to work in a musical college. It feels very fulfilling to you. But your friend is very talented, he continues and pushes forward and actually becomes a worldwide known rock star! You're so glad for him!
But the time passes, and your friend, now famous and loaded, states – you're getting most expensive treatment and surgery, and we – I and our old band bros – pay for this.
And your fingers, they work properly again. You had a whole life of 8 years, and now there are so many possibilities open. You know your friend wants you to join his band and travel and rock the stage together, he offers it to you without expecting much, because he knows you have your life settled already, you can't change that with a flick of a wrist. He's an understanding friend, even if his passion for your old shared dream burns brighter still. You can join his band for a concert or two once in a while, it's a good reprieve from your everyday life. But as much as you love music, your priorities shifted significantly since your youth – and now teaching is as important and precious to you.
You even invite your friend to give a lesson of two in the college where you work. It's a way for you two still remain in each other's lives even if your paths are a bit different now. Your connection is built on compromise and genuine support from both sides, and it's fantastic!
I know the analogy isn't perfect, but it works I suppose.
3. About Himiko and Ochako. It's a painful one, but
No, Himiko wasn't haunting Ochako for the whole 8 years, it's probably a time to time occasion. It's not because Ochako is tired, it's because she can't let go of her guilt and at particularly taxing times it manifests in these visions.
Dreams are still a big mystery for science, but what we know is that they're almost always NOT about what you see, but about the hidden layers of meaning.
And of course we know this is not REAL Himiko, it's just Ochako's mind.
So I don't understand all the weeping around Himiko now being DEAD FOR REAL OH. This is Ochako's mind, not a literal Toga's spirit no matter how much Horikoshi wants his symbolisms to be literal in this story. It's still open to interpretation if Toga is dead or notnot (she's coping).
Tsuyu is so Tsuyu 😭😭😭
Right, my girl, this dummy really thought there's something wrong with her health while she just needed to see a psychologist...
I remind you that psychotherapy is severely underdeveloped in Japan. There's still a lot of stigma around mental health there, so please keep this mentality in your mind while reading manga. "They could just go and see a therapist." No, they couldn't. Their culture doesn't work like this, and societal norms aren't a joke in Japan, they're literally overwhelming.
And about how this chapter "ruined" Himiko. To me, it didn't.
"Himiko was written for Ochako". Exactly. Ochako's main negative character trait was inability to open up about her true feelings, putting up a cheerful front and all that.
Himiko was created to get her to understand what suppressing emotions does to people. Unfortunately, it seems she didn't catch this message fully until Himiko told her with plain words and freaking pushed her forward.
And isn't it a torture for Himiko seeing Ochako beating herself over her death, putting up a brave front to avoid her inner struggle which is COMPLETELY OPPOSITE to what Himiko tried to convey?
And Himiko loved both Izuku and Ochako, so of course she wants them to be special for each other and open up to each other too.
Because Himiko LOVES love in any form (pun intended), and wishes happiness for her special people, and sees how they have been holding back from living how they wanted.
Do you really think Himiko would prefer a depressed Ochako having hallucinations of her over an Ochako who's opening up and rebuilding connections with the man she yearned to reach out to for so long?
And of course I'm not about the ship. This manga was never about the ships. We've got a clue that Izuku barely had any contact with his former classmates since graduation in 430. This chapter is created to gives us hope that it'll change, starting with Uraraka because Uraraka was the one to reach out to him first in the beginning, and now it's his turn.
I imagine that it's just a start of the reconnection arc. Izuku can do this with the rest of his classmates too later, and knowing his tendency to butt into others' business he certainly will.
(Yeah, it's an actually good idea for a new tome for you Hori, not Boruto 2.0, never Boruto 2.0 please...)
4(?). This one has gotten me confused...
They studied 3 years... so they must have become class 2-A, then 3-A.... I hope it's a bad translation.
Do you trust Jirou? She certainly did put a whole ton of wasabi in his food, look at her face
Katsuki not toasting because he's the sober friend for his whole bunch of idiots>>>>
(he really has come here for the food)
Katsuki, when did you undergo your Syndrome arc?
I love everyone in the comments also agreeing that Clarkson, Hammond and May would do the same, and in the words of James May, it would be a 'Meeting of Minds!' if they could collaborate on this.
rip mythbusters you would've loved destroying cybertrucks

And what car choices, an Alfa Romeo Giulia and a Maserati Merak, peak Italian Sports.
Also having read hus Biography, I can state the rather unfortunate reasoning for the use of the N word was shoe polish.
Yeah it was used as a colour name on those tins, hence him using it as a noun in HtGE, he basically was trying to say the boys looked like they had been covered in shoe polish, and wrote it in the worst way possible.
a reminder that
• the Rev Awdry named Mavis after his neighbor
• Daisy and Mavis were the only diesels to have a redemption arc
• Daisy was the first diesel owned by the NWR, and the first diesel to not be prejudiced against steam engines (every female diesel would follow this trend)
• Chris Awdry chose a pair of female diesels to succeed Gordon
• despite both Daisy and Mavis undergoing similar character development, they are unique in personality. They are also friends and don't try to undercut one another
• Annie and Clarabel are written as more sensible than Thomas, the Skarloey coaches are written as unruly and mischievous to their engines, and Henrietta is written as Toby's equal (character diversity)
• the Rev Awdry's wife is the whole reason we have the books, and ergo, the TVS
The man never cared about gender. He cared about good characters.
The extra time was probably getting all of the OFA functionality in it, Gearshift obeys no laws of physics, I assume the time was trying to get all the systems to work.
MEI HATSUME COULD HAVE BUILT THIS IN A CAVE!!!! WITH A BOX OF SCRAPS!!!!

First attempt at this sort of edit, looks alright.
I don't know why Tumblr insists on giving me Murder Yuri, when I want silly Bi People, but it is giving me Momo and Okarun and I still haven't even watched Dandadan, so there's that.
This is probably going to be an Owl House situation where the main ship get's me invested isn't it.
sigh
