Dear humanity,
Please Help Me – My Son May Die at Any Moment.
I'm Amal, a mother of three children, living under the weight of the genocide taking place in Gaza. 🍉
Here’s my story, and I’m reaching out with a hopeful heart 💔✨, hoping someone will feel what my family and I are going through.
My son is suffering from a severe and life-threatening injury after being shot by Israeli drones. He urgently needs medical treatment outside Gaza.
Time is running out, and we are facing a critical situation. I am asking for your generosity to help us save him either through a donation or by sharing this urgent plea with others
I beg you, i kiss your feet, to help my son. My son may die at any moment.
I lost most of my family. I'm afraid to lose my son too 🥺
Mohammed deserves to live a happy and healthy life, just like every other child on this earth.
So I humbly ask you to donate even a little or at least reblog this appeal.
Donate pls!
hey! I came across your post about how horikoshi pretty much vindicated/validated the way different factions of the bnha fandom sexualize the teen characters, but I'm not sure if it'd be okay for me to rb. I ship characters from this manga because I like to explore the potential duos and relationship dynamics we could have gotten -my fav being a non-canon mlm pairing, but my blog is sfw. I do not ship bkdk or tgchk, either. So yeah, just making sure if you'd be okay with me interacting, given the disclaimer you wrote at the beginning of that post.
Awee yay my second ask, and now suddenly I feel famous lol!
Thanks for reaching out and acknowledging by boundaries. To answer your question you’re free to reblog my post regardless of who you ship. You don’t seem to violate any of my personal boundaries afterall. Don’t let me dictate who you can or cannot ship especially if it makes you happy and you seem self aware.
If you were a bkdk fan in particular I don’t think I’d have an issue with it, just as long as you A. acknowledge the ship itself is inherently toxic, B. not a proshipper, C. you’re okay with ppl disliking it (does not count if they’re attacking you directly and you’re innocent), and D. you condemn the toxic shippers.
That’s rare to come across, and to anyone else who’s reading this…particularly bkdk stans, if you do not tick all the requirements then that means the shoe fits and I want nothing to do with yall.
Fyi I’m not really a shipper in general, just someone who prefers written analysis of plots, arcs and sometimes pre-established couples that actually work. Once in a while there are one or two ships I’d obsess over, but even then I’m a tunnel vision type of fan so you won’t see me glazing every fancontent of them, I’m just here picking and choosing before going back to my small curated cave.
I hope I don’t come across as snobby or this stuck up “I’m better than you lust driven obsessed shipers” type of fan. I’m sorry if I do, sometimes my wording can come across as blunt or odd….But on the other hand I don’t find myself gravitating to shippers because the census create unnecessary discourses from their rose tinted glasses and they’re just not someone I’d turn to have a proper discussion with. They’re often delusional and feed of breadcrumbs, and its even worse when they’re a fujoshi shipper who ship (pale skinned) men but I’m getting too ahead of myself.
Once again you’re free to ship whoever you like if it makes you happy, I can’t stop you and you shouldn’t let me stop you. But I’m thankful you’ve reached out for clarification!
Hey! 😊
I hope you're doing well.
II’m reaching out with something really close to my heart. A dear friend and his family are going through an incredibly hard time.
They urgently need support, and even the smallest act of kindness — a share or donation — could make a life changing difference.
This is about compassion, about standing by each other when it matters most. 💛
Thank you so much for taking a moment to care 🙏

So what broke you on MHA? Was there a turning point for you?
OMG MY FIRST ASK!? Never thought I’d see the day someone would use my ask button to the point I completely forgot its existence. But thank you!
Now to answer your question….hm. It’s been such a while since I’ve actually immersed myself with MHA, but let me give you a little backstory of how I got into it.
Around 2019 I believe, or maybe late 2018. I was 16yrs old and a friend of mine recommended it. I was immediately hooked, and that’s saying something because usually it’s hard for me to get into a show without loosing interest. I’m talking about hyperfixtating and obsession, not a one time thing or immediate drop.
My first favourite character? Fukimage Tokoyami. Then it was swapped for Hero Killer: Stain. Then I considered favouring Spinner before it was officially last swapped for Hitoshi Shinsou.
Pinpoint of when I began to lose interest? Sometime after the sports festival arc. It was still there, but my main driving force was because of Shinsou. Like I previously mentioned its been a while since I’ve actually immersed myself with MHA so I apologise I can’t give a detailed analysis of why this episode was the nail in the coffin.
Even when I first started watching the series I could already see the flaws and was highly critical, but I bared through it in hopes it couldve gotten better.
Also, I’m someone who’s a tunnel vision fan. Not the bias type fan, but I hardly interact with the fandom unless its to look at certain fanart or fanfiction or they’re likeminded people.
Imagine my surprise and disbelief when I decided to go out of my bubble and see everyone worship the ground b*kugo walked on. Honestly for a moment I thought I was going insane or was being too harsh on him, until I decided to download tumblr and found the critical tags
Sidenote I once did have a tumblr account that was active in the 2019-21 mha critical accounts before I decided to delete it.
Then I dropped it around late 2020- early 2021. Just didn’t feel like torturing myself with a show that disrespects its characters, and the overall census of the fandom lacking critical thinking skills. And also 16yr old me was just salty Horikoshi wasnt paying attention to Hitoshi but I digress that doesnt count lol.
Then sometime around 2023-24 the final war arc began gaining attraction. At first I ignored it cause I was just a tired hater, but then I just kept on seeing it everywhere and decided you know what let me check it out and see how far Horikoshi fell off.
And boy was that arc a cluster fuck within itself. Too many things going on at once. This arc and that arc and that character and this one and that. I was just hating the entire time.
But it was only after the dust settled, the episodes were animated and the manga finally finished did I decide to rise from the ashes and rejoin the tags under a new account that I originally used for Demon Slayer fan content.
While I can’t give you a dissect analysis on an episode or a character because that would require me to go back and watch the episode and truthfully I don’t wanna torture myself again…I can lay out the things that I never liked about MHA.
In no particular order
•The world-building. Not utilized in the grand scheme of things, and it being focused on Japan is not an excuse. This is not your average story where only a certain group of people hold powers and those powers are God like. These are your everyday people, born or not born with a Quirk thats unique and tailored to them. So many opportunities, gone and wasted.
•Addressing controversial topics (Lack of better word). Horikoshi would highlight it….and then forget it the next day. An opportunity to touch the darker side of Quirk society, or have a talk about the philosophy of it.
•Too many characters. You want to have a large cast fine, but if you’re going to do that please understand your limits and what you can handle. If you know you can’t write for every single characters then establish that, make it known that x character is a one off character, a side character or a plot device etc- As long as they all help contribute to the story in some way instead of leaving them to rott then suddenly remembering they exist and you try to make them have this important arc as if I should care when you never even bothered to make us care for them.
Or just reduce the cast, simple as that. Seriously, 20 entire classmates? Horikoshi, please take a page out of Danganronpa when it comes to handling a large cast. (Fyi: Im also critical of Danganronpa but I know when to give credit when due)
To be fair Horikoshi couldnt even handle his main characters properly.
•Tell don’t show. This is quite common in the Anime Industry, and for what reason I have no idea. Never liked this type of narrative storytelling, but I’m able to suck it up just as long as you know how to make it work. Horikoshi just did the most with it, and especially with too many flashback scene it just turned me off if anything.
•Lack of consequences. It took me a very long time for me to tolerate asshole characters turned good, and you can thank bakugo for that. Before I always had my foot on their neck everytime, and you could not convince me to even shed fake tears for them. Bakugo is coddled by both writers and his insufferable fans, so their love for him only fuled my dislike for him.
But aside from bully archetype characters there’s also plot type of consequences, and I can see Horikoshi lacks the nuances to delve or stick to the door he opened. The supposed high stakes are illusions, and that is best seen with the war arc. Like you knew all the heros and students were going to survive, except maybe like 1 or 2 no one should honestly cares about yet apparently everyone held a pity party for midnight lol.
•The disrespect of the Female Cast. Horikoshi had the perfect opportunity to address the sexism the female cast wouldve faced. He barely brushed it and he was only using his jerk off right hand to create these characters designs and story. He’s a disgusting pervert
•Favouritsm. Horikoshi favours Aizawa, Hitoshi, Mineta and Bakugo. 2 of them are confirmed to be his self inserts and that speaks for everything in itself.
• I may add more bullets in the future when I remember my other reasons as to why I dislike MHA. But this is about it really.
Thanks for the ask, and my first one! Honoured to answer your question.
