#justice for midoriya

[freehideoutpuppy]

Ok so I've briefly touched on this, and I've done some reblogging of some other people's posts about it but I've decided it's time I add my own thoughts on Midoriya using Deku as his hero name.

Personally, I think it's one of Horikoshi's biggest failures in the early part of the series. We get glimpses of Midoriya's mental health being shit throughout the series, and the name Deku and his mistreatment by his peers and even his teachers pre OFA is pretty damn bad.

So, while I do understand what Horikoshi was going for with having Midoriya claim the name Deku as something different, it still feels wrong. Especially when adding in the context of how Uraraka just bulldozed over it being an insult that his freaking bully called him to be awful. And maybe if Bakugo had actually gotten REAL consequences for his actions or moved to 1-B or something, I wouldn't have as big an issue with it. But damn Bakugo has treated Midoriya like crap in every flash back we see. And has been a constant negative presence in Midoriya's life the entire time. And that, along with Bakugo being the one to give him that awful nickname in the first place, drives me crazy. Horikoshi has had so many missed opportunities and made a lot of choices with character development that leave me scratching my head in confusion. And about 90% of those decisions have something to do with Bakugo.

But I'm getting off topic a bit. During the war arc we really see Midoriya spiral and a big part of me actually enjoyed it in some ways because it was the first time we really get to see Midoriya behave in the way that's indicative of how he and heroes have treated by society as a whole. He believes wholeheartedly that he needs to hunt down AFO and Shigaraki alone because that's how All Might has been presented, and he has to live up to that pressure. He fully believes that his life is worthless and that he's only useful if he's doing everything he can to protect others even at the cost of himself. Which all comes back to Deku. I fully believe that Midoriya still feels like as a person he's worthless, and that's why he really chose Deku. Maybe he hoped that he could change the meaning of it now that he has OFA, but I think deep down he believes otherwise. We've seen that throughout the manga and anime. He consistently broke himself when he realized someone more powerful than him or who had a quirk from childhood was in danger. At the USJ, when he tried to attack Shigaraki, who was trying to dust Tsu. When he attacked the Zero pointer during the entrance exam so it wouldn't crush Uraraka. When he launched himself at Shigaraki to protect All Might. When he and Todoroki fought in the sports festival and he irreparably damaged his hand. There are so many instances of this kid letting himself be hurt by others to protect someone else, and he has zero regard for his own life. It's pretty heartbreaking, honestly. It's a big contributor to why I stopped reading the manga at this point. Well, that and Bakugo's deus ex machina, but well, it's bakugo, and I hate him, so that shouldn't surprise anyone who has seen my rants or knows me irl.

But yeah, I both loathe and understand why Midoriya went with Deku as his hero name. That doesn't mean I agree with the decision, but I understand it.

WHAT. do you mean. izuku has no fans. WHAT DO YOU MEAN izuku has no fans, no one even ACKNOWLEDGING him for SAVING THE WHOLE WORLD

The Dad For One theory being real would have been amazing only because imagine Kudo steals his brother and then Bakugo (who reminds him of Kudo) steals his son 💀

Chapter 91 - Symbol of Peace

I've thought about this forever now. Deku's notebooks have such batman vs the justice league contingency plans vibes. If Deku was less idealistic and more paranoid, he'd be perfect for the batfam, with or without a quirk

I love you Tim Drake i love you Avatar Aang i love you Miles Morales i love you Izuku Midoriya i love you Hunter Noceda-Deamonne I love you male kid characters who're genuinely interesting and positive role models for young boys and are hated by pick me girls and dudebros for not being walking testoteronepilled fantasies for dogshit written self-insert purposes

There's something about Deku in any shot from the new movie that just gets me. He looks so good in them! This is a Deku Slander Free Blog. I will not tolerate anything bad ever said about my precious green haired son!

I need more fanfics where class 1-A finds out about Bakugo's bullying and abuse of Midoriya. Realizes how bad it actually was and how badly they all fucked up and Bakugo gets actual God damn consequences and maybe gets his ass beat by someone! Todoroki is my first pick on that front because platonic or not Todoroki is 100% Midoriya's ride or die and if he found out that Bakugo was Midoriya's abuser, there's no way in hell Todoroki wouldn't light his ass on fire immediately no questions asked. Do I also think Midoriya would 100% be upset if class 1-A beat Bakugo's ass? Yes. Does that mean Bakugo shouldn't get his ass beat? Absolutely not. I know why Midoriya would try and defend him and try to lessen whatever punishment he should get, but at the same time fuck that! Is Bakugo a child? Yes. But by 15-16 he's old enough to know better than to do ANY of the things he did in canon. Dude's literally Endeavor 2.0 and should've been removed from 1-A if not UA entirely after the battle trials if not the sports festival.

I thought if people were not going to make it to the final battle for Izuku it was going to be Ochaco, Katsuki, and Shoto because their injuries were absolutely insane and their own personal battles already put them through hell.

But where TF is TENYA IIDA. Did I miss him in the background???

[ilovereadingandstuff]

[hella1975]

would you like to talk about how bad the mha ending was hella

[nartml]

Now, I know I didn't witness Izuku go through all this shit to get slapped in the face with this typa treatment

[nightmarerose1]

Now I gotta manifest that Tokoyami,Bakugou,Todoroki and Deku gets at least a tribute for their hard work this final chapter🕯️😌

[theflamesofruin]

Happy Birthday Izuku Midoriya!

I've been seeing the spoilers for the bnha manga, and at this point, I'm absolutely disgusted with Horikoshi. He treats Midoriya like a joke at best and like his own personal punching bag at worst. It's no wonder Bakugo gets all the attention. He's using Bakugo as a stand-in for himself so he can continue beating Midoriya down. I hate it so much I'm not even willing to watch the series or buy anything official anymore. Horikoshi is a shit writer, and taking away OFA from Midoriya after how hard he's worked to make it his own was awful. That's not even mentioning how badly he's treated other characters, either. I think the dude has an abuse fetish or something because at this point, I can't fathom another reason for him to give the abusers so much attention when their victims are blamed or treated terribly for no good reason.
