one thing i kinda hate is how everything always comes back to all might. like, i know that’s the entire point but if you’re not really gonna go in and explore the unique ramifications of every hero being inspired by him and every villain being wronged by him then it’s just repetitive and gets boring
#bnha manga spoilers#i was interested in star and stripe her quirk was sick and shes a huge buff woman which is automatically awesome#and then it turns out her entire motivation is just that she was rescued by all might as a kid#stain is such an intimidating force and his ideology makes sense but its ruined when he idolises the very thing he hates#completely unironically and his view is never challenged#he never realises that all might is just as fake as other heroes just as media hungry no matter how many people he saves#he should be the pinicle of what he hates but bc its all might he never is#i think its why i like dabi and hawks so much#their motivation is entirely based on endeavour (who is also based around all might)#same with kirishima being inspired by crimson riot its refreshing for someone to have a different hero for once#but its like theres no point in being intrigued by a new character bc everything will always boil down to all might#midoriya is never given any character growth and is still just an all might clone#bakugo is a parallel of endeavour who himself is a foil to all might and hes always wanted to be all might#the entire nighteye arc was nighteye comparing midoriya to all might#shigaraki is only there bc he was related to nana and therefore personal to all might#him going after dabi as a replacement could easily be spun into ‘the son of the rival you never took seriously is now evil haha’#the only real thing that had nothing to do with him was the plf#and thats just not enough#if youre going to make everything revolve around one character you cant make it as one note as it is#everything is either directly or indirectly bc of all might#no one ever even really blames him#to some degree everyone knows ots all mights fault due to his affects on society#but no one ever actually says it#and the only consequences are the characters that end up all being the same#we can infer and do all the meta we want but that doesnt mean the depth is really there#i want this to be more than all mights world#coming out of my cage and ive been doing just fine.txt#go beyond plus ultra#bnha#all might
