Wake Up Chat. Japanese Fandom Developed The Theory Of The Multiverse. (they Also Call 429 The Real Ending,

lol welcome to my blog I’m a prison abolitionist, I’m a communist, I don’t tolerate rape apologists, and I’ve been vegan for a decade, hi

I love twitter sometimes

Oh I’m so irritated at how Lady Nagant’s story line is going but why is it everyone is acting like Hawks is a mass murderer for just showing up? Their storylines are connected so it makes sense. It’s not like he’s killed thousands with no remorse or anything. I feel that hate is better spent on AFO who is the in-story reason for her problems rn.

wait hold that thought, hawks needs help choosing an outfit , which one looks better on him 😕

but nws i have enough hate in my heart for two ppl 😁✌️

Spinner: Shigaraki… do you need me to do something for you…!

From the mobile BnHA Game. I’ve got no other context for this image, but i like it a lot and will be looking for more asap

it's interesting that bnha attracts many "fandom isn't activism" types (it's a big fandom, so of course they come here) when bnha IS imo very concerned with instilling a sense of ethics within its readers. bnha IS a series where the protagonist is right, the flawed characters on the protagonist's side "get better," the good guys win and the bad guys answer for their crimes. "fandom isn't activism" but good lord bnha is guiding you down the most lawfully sanctioned route.

yes, bnha goes through the trouble of characterizing the bad guys and showing the reasons behind their actions, but it insists that the bad guys should still be held accountable. which is fine, plenty of stories do, but bnha is: (1) really ethically very simple as a story because of that, and (2) stymies its own emotional storytelling because it's fundamentally more concerned with drawing lines in the sand that "good" and "bad" guys can't cross.

for example: good guys can never overly identify with the bad guys or put the harm bad guys have done on the back burner. we have to remember endeavor, natsuo, and shouto are more worried about other people's lives, even as touya is burning to death in front of them. there's no lapses in judgment, no wrong decisions, no selfishness, nothing crazy, no one making insane gambits that put others in the line of fire to save their loved one, no one to say "fuck the world, you're the one i choose." only villains do that.

it's love at its safest and most sanitized for capitalism, love that is only self-sacrificial, love that doesn't interfere with the law, love that doesn't upset the social order, love that never implicates the world. at this point, even deku going berserker mode over bakugou's death would be more interesting, but that impulse is immediately suppressed and he follows the plan to fight shigafo, without even going to bakugou's side. in ten years they'll be married with a child and they'll miss its 13th birthday in a row because they have to bust a trigger smuggling ring. please god it's so fucking bleak.

so, yeah, i believe in the villains' relationships more. they make disruptive, unhinged, terrible decisions out of love and i love that for them. spinner puts the hand back on tomura's face, dabi burns down himiko's house, spinner wants to save tomura by walking into hell with him, himiko wants to pay back twice's death a hundred times over, and she knows what dabi will try to do and she lets him do it. it's fucking unhinged and i am invested!

people really are out here giving takes like "fandom isn't activism so the characters i like aren't really cops, but the LOV make each other worse so they have to be saved from themselves by paw patrol" as though that isn't the most vanilla take on the gotdamn earth... i don't want the shit that's been workshopped by therapists and lawyers for maximum correctness, give me some crazy deranged shit that'll determine the fate of the world.

dabi and hawks? for ship opinion?

okay okay i'm going to be more detailed this time around.

i have very complicated thoughts on dabihawks. like... i do read dabihawks, but that's more because it's all i can ever find for dabi content and i'm at the point where i'm like, whatever, i'll take it. i also will read fics by any mutuals who write dabihawks bc i trust them on their portrayals. and occasionally i'll read a good fic and suddenly get feelings for the ship again (because i used to like it).

HOWEVER... in general i'm not a fan of the ship. for obvious reasons in canon, but i think if it were just bc of canon i would have ignored the ship. its that the shippers have sort of ruined it for me. obviously this is not every single shipper in existence but some of them make it really obvious that they're just hawks stans who don't care about dabi and only use him as an accessory or therapist to hawks. either that, or they demonize shigaraki and the rest of the lov and act like dabi is somehow more morally pure than them, which is... wrong? i dont think this happens a lot anymore but i will occasionally stumble across that even now (i saw one like this today :/) and its just really weird.

i also feel really sick and uncomfortable at any fics that make dabi get together with hawks post-266. i've seen it a few times and i genuinely feel nauseous seeing that sort of stuff because it's like, twice just doesn't matter anymore to dabi bc he's getting together with twice's murderer, or it downplays hawks' actions and pretends that dabi is the aggressor or that he's abusive or something and he needs to beg for forgiveness. and i just really don't like that. before 266 is fine though.

send me a ship and i'll give my opinion on it ❤️

Dabi lives in a dirty ass old car except he keeps it parked behind a 7/11 because he can't drive

[Image: the ‘wow cool robot’ meme showing a badly drawn head staring at something. The man is labelled Hawks and he’s staring at Twice. Hawks is saying “Wow! Twice likes helping people! I should help the most powerful man in the country after he is accused of domestic abuse!” while Twice’s point “Society formed me into crime at a young age due to being poor and I am helping the people who were willing to help me despite this, the fellow outcasts who were let down by the system, take that society down” flies over his head. End description.]

so I read the 299 scanlation
