The visual representation of “the symbol of fear” being a mask that Tenko wears, and that mask being ripped off once someone finally sees who he is at his core….

….paired with a visual representation of Izuku’s unfeeling “symbol of peace” mask also being ripped off to reveal who HE truly is at his core, because he saw into the depths of Tomura’s soul and couldn’t ignore it…….

Bruh…….,, _(:°з」∠)_

#So much of Tomura’s pain stems from the continuous rejection of his identity as Tenko by basically everyone he’s ever met #which is why it’s so frustrating when people interpret Izuku ‘’wanting to save that boy’’ as him only wanting to save Tenko #it’s completely missing the point— Tomura is Tenko and Tenko has been *begging* for someone to see him this whole time.#he’s also always needed someone to express faith in his goodness #since afo and ~trauma~ has beaten the notion that he was ever good right outta of him #like #Tenko gets called a good boy ONCE by another kid he was kind to & proceeds to cling to that feeling like it’s some kinda lifevest #even as he loses more and more of his identity to afo #shigaraki tomura #shimura tenko #midoriya izuku #mha spoilers
