“Everyone is looking at me. Oh, so that's how it feels... If it was such an easy thing to do, then why didn't it happen sooner?!”

THATS WHAT HE SAYS HERE AND I AM REALLY NOT OKAY RN

Touya's perspective (Ch 287-290)

There were so many POV switches and huge gaps between the short chapters, so I think people don't realize that this is a continuous sequence that takes place in a matter of maybe 1-2 minutes.

It's about Touya regressing into a childlike state where he gets everything his 13-year old self wanted only to realize how simple it all could have been, that the potential was there in the family to be happy.

Touya shouldn't have had to turn into Dabi, burn himself and the world to get this, but also maybe the "reward" was not as fulfilling as he imagined it to be - and there is "sizzl" written by his eyes - as if tears were evaporating.

And the rage bursts out, makes him crack, and as Shouto appears to clash with him again and you can literally see Touya's pupils coming back. Making him finally look at Shouto not as some masterpiece monster creation of their father who only exists to take everything from Touya, but as a desperate, crying little boy who is not that different from Touya. His brother - who also wants their family be together.

Touya seeing Shouto that way also makes him realize that there are things he still wants to say.

So when the words come stumbling out, it's all his unprocessed hurt and anger and rage, but he's not burning himself or the world anymore. And on the last panel, the melting ice looks like streaks of tears.

It looks angry and hateful, but they are communicating and letting out feelings and that's an essential part of processing grief.

You know what’s extra painful about Dabi’s whole “if it was so easy for everyone to look at me, why didn’t they do it sooner?” panel?

He has always assumed that to get attention, he would need to do some grand feat that made him worthy of it. He thought attention from his family that had to be earned, and it had to be through something gruelling or noteworthy. And now he has done nothing and yet they are looking at him, so if that were the case why could they not have looked at him before?

Except he is doing something. He is literally burning himself to ash and considers this “so easy”. To him, this is nothing.

Shoto, come get your brother, dude.

The anguish of the villains

Why others but not me? Why is it so easy for them to have something I can’t?

[mettywiththenotes]

Why do you want to fight your hero? So you can get real close to her face? So you can look deeply into each other’s eyes? So your mouths can almost touch as you talk about love?
