the thing about “meaningless gore” is that even when it’s apparently not intellectual enough for so many people, it forces the viewer to confront the fact that they are just meat, they are mortal, they can and will eventually die, and pain is part of the human experience that unfortunately none of us will escape experiencing at one point or another. life is both horrifyingly fragile and surprisingly resilient which makes existing in a body a fraught experience regardless of whether we want to acknowledge that or not. “to watch a horror movie is to know that something bad is going to happen. to have a body is really the same thing.” anyway that in and of itself is plenty to grapple with and if a film decides to only deal with that, i don’t think it’s less valuable than any other theme a film might address
People ask me Lexi, why do you think Todoroki is a massive simp? My main reason and response: Todoroki received a text with only a location from Midoriya and immediately runs to help him, abandoning helping civilians get away from the danger. He didn't question it, he just ran to help this guy whom he had only been friends with for a week(?) and immediately helped him (and Iida) take down Stain. If that isn't simp behavior i don't know what else is.
