🚨 MHA 285 - 286 spoilers 🚨

Scroll like super fast or something...idk

Anyway I wanna talk about this scene because some ppl were saying that it would have been more meaningful for Katsuki to say something like “I’m sorry” but I think what he said at that moment is perfect.

For one Katsuki’s atonement is something he is doing for himself because he feels that it is something Izuku deserves, it is not something that Izuku is particularly looking for since he has long since forgiven Katsuki. So saying something like “I’m sorry” would mean that he did what he did solely for his atonement and the guilt that he felt for bullying Izuku for all those years. But since he told Izuku to stop playing hero on his own, he was thinking about Izuku and Izuku’s well-being first and foremost rather than his guilt for what he did in the past. Meaning almost dying for Izuku (although his way of atoning) was mainly because he truly cares for him.

Uravity✨

[lemongogo]

can i say it .

[kae-karo]

me, sobbing: shiggy??? redemption? arc??????????

LET NANA AND DEKU SAVE HIM FROM AFO PLS

i just want. i want deku to realize™ that shiggy is being manipulated. i know there are a lot of other nuances here and stuff but like. i want him to look at shiggy and see someone who can still be saved. as much as i love feral deku i want him to eschew that stupid belief that some villains are beyond help, it’s hero commission/society brainwashing bullshit and given that nana is the one standing behind him, i hope that means it’s going to be a joint effort to actually help him get free of afo’s control

First, I wanted to adress this:

The growth of this boy. That’s what I love about Horikoshi’s storytelling. Show, don’t tell. Hearing an apology is great, I’m not denying that. But your past bully jumping without second thoughts to save you? That’s on another level. Him thinking about his past, about what he’s done, adressing his feelings about it- it’s all absolutely amazing.

Second thing

This and few previous scenes. In my eyes, it shows that AfO trully doesn’t care about the wellbeing of Tomura Shigaraki. Shouldn’t he be his own hero in a way? He should, yet to him this broken, shattered person is still just a vessel to fulfill his own desires, making AfO a really disgraceful villain unlike let’s say League of Villains.

And the last one

I just want to appreciate it. And hear your thoughts on this. I wonder how Shigaraki will interact with his grandmother. What will they have to say to each other? Too many questions!!

[chiptheartist]

I love concerned Uraraka

The Second Master

Ok, this is just a small observation but I thought I would put it up here. In the latest chapter, Gigantomachia smells two masters. Now this could just be Shigaraki and the weird AfO spirit he has within him. Still, the image itself reminded me of something.

The weird little core of flame is a lot like the visual depiction of OfA in the Joint Training arc.

As others have pointed out, this second master could actually be Deku. Whether that’s because he’s actually descended from AfO or just because the quirk itself is. Either way, Deku is going HAM on Shigaraki and acting a lot like Gigantomachia’s idea of a “king”. if so, I would imagine that Giganotmachia wouldn’t have been able to sense the connection before Deku awakened the new quirks/vestige part of OfA.

Coping with a fic for Ch. 285 - Pt. 2

Eijiro Kirishima was lucky to be alive.  

After him and the other students had fought that monster and the League of Villains in the mountains, the injured Kirishima was carried off by his peers and the group sought protection far away from the danger — no man left behind.  

The scene back in the safe zone was complete and utter chaos.  Medics and first responders rushed around the slowly gathering crowd of wounded heroes.  Kirishima insisted that he was much better off than everybody else, and after being assessed by professionals had been deemed severely banged up, but not in critical condition.  As a first responder checked his pupils to make sure they weren’t dilated, Tokoyami’s voice rang out in the air. 

“HELP!”  He screamed.  The panic in his voice sent chills down his classmate’s spines.  “I NEED HELP OVER HERE!”  Cloaked in a weeping Dark Shadow, Tokoyami flew through the skies, and landed in front of an ambulance with a broken man dying in his arms.  Kirishima quickly recognized the charred body to be the number two hero: Hawks.  

Why was he here?  Kirishima hadn’t been aware that Hawks had even been a part of this mission… 

Medics lowered the wounded hero onto a stretcher and wheeled him into a truck, working on him immediately with quirks, as well as modern medicine.  Dark Shadow whimpered and cried as it hugged a stoic Tokoyami.

“I know how much you care for him… let’s hope he will be fine,” Tokoyami comforted Dark Shadow, as a grim expression washed over his tear-stained face.  The medic cleared Kirishima, and he hopped off of the ambulance’s bumper to make way for the next patient.    

Kirishima scanned the crowd for his friends.  Some were being looked at, and even fewer were being treated.  That was a good sign.  He recognized Denki off in a corner, looking fried and beat up; he looked shaken, but ultimately safe.  The electric blond caught his gaze and waved at Kirishima with wild excitement, ignoring the medic who was attempting to take a look at him (almost like they were in a completely different and carefree setting — a couple of friends who’d been separated at an amusement park).  Kirishima let out a sob of gratitude and waved back weakly.  As Kaminari was apparently cleared by the medic (who quickly moved onto somebody else), Jiro came seemingly out of nowhere and nearly tackled the blond.  She ran up to him and threw her arms out, hesitating just short of actually hugging him.  Her fingers flexed in confusion as her hands hovered on either side of his head.  His bright smile faded as confusion took over his expression.  She squeezed her hands into frustrated fists, and for a moment Kirishima was certain that she was about to slap him (and by the look on Kaminari’s face, he was preparing for that outcome as well).  Instead, she threw her arms around his neck and hugged him, nearly knocking him down with the force.  Kaminari instantly hugged her back, chuckling lightly as he regained his balance.  The two of them held onto one another tightly as they continued to sway gently, eyes closed, with no sign of letting go.  

Kirishima smiled at them — lost in their own world — and found Mina staring after them as well, with a happy, tear-filled expression.  She caught Kirishima’s gaze and grinned at him fondly, crossing her hands over her chest.  She held up one strong fist as if to say ‘we did it.’  Kirishima returned the gesture and nodded.  Sero stepped in next to her, smiling at Kirishima in relief and waving at him, before wrapping Mina in a tight side-hug and closing his eyes — a silent show of affection that said he was grateful for her safety.  

…But where was everybody else?  

Kirishima counted his classmates, he counted the heroes.  There were still some missing.  Where were they? 

His question was quickly answered when Mineta’s high pitched scream pierced the dusk. 

“BAKUGO!  SENSEI!  MIDORIYA!”  

“Bakugo?”  Kirishima ran towards the sound as fast as he could, dodging anything in his way, until he saw an orange and black body being wheeled down the hill towards the trucks.  “No!”  He gasped, picking up speed as he saw how completely covered in blood Bakugo was.  He was running straight towards him so quickly, he didn’t even realize that Rock Lock had grabbed him around the waist and swung him around, away from the stretcher.  “LET ME GO!”  Kirishima roared, clawing at the arms holding him back. 

“You need to let them do their job,” Rock Lock explained, rationally. 

“I NEED TO SEE HIM!”  Kirishima panicked.

“You can’t,” Rock Lock responded.  

Kirishima’s last cry for Bakugo was a wordless, gut-wrenching, voice-cracking, sob that escaped his throat before the tears had even sprung to his eyes.  He began breathing erratically, looking around at his classmates’ pale and distorted faces as they all took in the sight of Bakugo, Midoriya, and Aizawa Sensei all being wheeled into separate ambulances, all passed out on stretchers. 

The pro hero wrestled with Kirishima, ignoring his protests and holding him tightly in place while the teen fought to free himself (too tired to bother using his quirk to do so), until the older man finally snapped, roaring, “YOU’D BE IN THE WAY!” 

Kirishima stilled at that.  His brain stilled.  Time seemed to stop.  

They were loading Bakugo into the truck.  They were taking him away. 

It was too late. 

“Bakugo…” 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*FYI, ships so far have been mostly pining/platonic up until this point, so even in this fic they’re closer to cannon than fannon.  (Also Sero and Mina are genuinely just friends, but they are very close).  (Kamijirou has pretty much just blossomed in that hugging moment without previous instances, and Kiribaku is just powerful, undefined feelings at this point).
