In pinterest I found a photo with kids sailor dresses and thought about Todoroki children.
this is actually like redraw of my old fanart from 2021, when I had just started watching the anime (haven't read the manga) when I drew them. So I didn't know their age gap, that touya in this age allready had white hair and of course didn't know about their height difference
REAL BNHA FINAL PAGES LEAK:
bakugo: deku you quirkless nerd… hawks is calling, he wants your help designing the new plush pajamas to give to prisoners…
deku: oh right! i guess i better get going. have fun in combat training, remember to learn how to kill villains in one shot!
*behind bakugo we see ochako and iida sharing a kiss*
deku: ha, i guess we all saw that coming.
*deku runs into all might*
all might: young midoriya… i told you real heroes moved without thinking… and i stand by that. continue not thinking and you will be a hero no matter what
deku: wow all might… thank you!
*deku walks away holding a notebook that says “IDEAS FOR NEW VILLAIN BURIAL GROUNDS #12”*
*THE END*
I personally am not fond of when people talk about spinner like he isn't human (like specifically saying human is a different thing than what he is) , or when people assume his quirk would effect his genetics in a way that makes him sterile. Like?? He has a very normal mutation quirk. He isn't an animal with a quirk, he's a human, and he has a lizard quirk that just happens to affect his appearance. Tsu has a frog quirk and I don't ever see this about her, and we all know why. Her dad looks just like a fucking frog and I'm guessing since he managed to sire multiple kids he's firing on all cylinders so why the fuck would Shuichi's quirk make him sterile?? He's just a normal ass person with a snout and scales. (I am not counting you monster fuckers with egg fetishes, I understand why that is a plot point often for y'all lol).
But for the rest of you, how can you miss the point about heteromorphs so fucking hard?

(source on the first image for context that no one asked for) Anyway, AFO giving a bullied child an IBS quirk is still one of the most back-handed, black hearted acts of pure fucking evil I have ever seen in a manga. Greatest shonen villain of all time, of the year, of the century, of the week even, etc etc etc.
Something I’m finding pretty weird, and maybe a bit frustrating, in the fandom lately is people extrapolating one League member’s problems to exist in the rest as well; especially Dabi’s suicidal ideation as of late.
‘The League are all self-destructive and endanger eachother’ No that’s just Dabi. ‘The villains need to be given a reason to live for’ No that’s just Dabi. Shigaraki already has that. Toga especially already has that. Dabi’s the only one who wants to die.
Seriously, it actually feels silly to see claims that Toga wants to die when she has been telling us about her want to live despite the world being so incompatible to her since about the moment we met her, and fighting tooth and nail for her life for just as long. She could not be more unlike Dabi in this regard. Her entire character motive is to live, and there are people who think she’s suicidal. Okay. I don’t know what to do with that information beside be baffled by it.
I think most people always agreed that Tenko's allergies were - in some form or another - emotion-based. Back in 235 we get the infamous "it only itches at home line" line.
It's also emphasized again later in the chapter when we see that the itching gets progressively worse after Kotaro yells at Tenko (meaning that it gets worse when Tenko is sad and/or in distress).
Back in the day, I saw a lot of people theorizing that the itch was a sign of Decay and that it was the early stages of the quirk manifesting within Tenko. But given what we know now, about AFO giving Tenko the quirk and especially when he gave Tenko the quirk, I don't think that this is the case.
We can pretty much pinpoint exactly when AFO gave Tenko the Decay quirk.
These two panels are from 235 and 419 - and I firmly believe that these panels take place only minutes apart from each other. This is also clearly the moment that AFO gave Decay over to Tenko, as shown by the small glow of his hand. Before this point Tenko Shimura was quirkless.
Tenko got his original quirk stolen from him when he was just a baby - meaning that during the time between being an infant and being 5-years-old, Tenko was officially quirkless. This makes a huge difference if we then look back at his allergies and why they appear.
This panel is from just before AFO takes Tenko's hand and gives him the Decay quirk. Look at his face. This boy already has irritated skin around his eyes (it looks like he's just been scratching at it too). With the knowledge that Tenko at this point in time still is quirkless, I think it's fair to say that the allergies are not an early symptom of Decay. It only itches at home. Because the itching is purely psychosomatic. Because it's a stress-response/anxiety-response to the environment this young boy is forced to come home to every single day.
This boy is 5. He's 5. It's not normal for a 5-year-old to think thoughts anywhere near "does my father hate me?"
Kotaro has already put a fear in this little boy, which doesn't stop or go away as soon as he's punishment does. The trauma in this boy is already so big that he thinks about these things in the moments when his dad isn't even actively scolding or punishing him.
It doesn't take a destructive quirk to cause a physical response like itching. All it takes is being constantly afraid of when you're going to be yelled at next, when you're going to be punished next, all by the hands of the parental figure you aren't sure even loves you at all.
It only itches at home. Especially when the four walls of your house are a prison.
