The way this panel was animated gives me SHIVERS, they really brought out Touya’s anger perfectly well and made this stare even more intense in the anime !!

My final thoughts on Toya's father after reading Toya's recent event story:

[dailyaoyagi]

(deep breath) I love Toya but can we all admit that Sega treats him terribly?

He didn’t get an event for over 500 days, he hasn’t gotten a limited hairstyle in over a year, he hasn’t had a duet in over a year (archives don’t count and technically Haruka and Shizuku have it worse) he doesn’t get to interact with anyone outside of WxS (FFS his two mixed events have more or less the exact same lineup) and until the First Concerto happened they just used him as a tool to show how amazing Akito and Tsukasa are instead of giving him anything to himself. And the whole “he interacts with only WxS” thing is a huge shame because he only has a good dynamic with Tsukasa there so I’m not sure why they have to glue him to them. I guess you could argue that Kanade also has this problem since they only put her with L/N but at least she isn’t half as mistreated as he is.

At least with the whole “meeting new people thing” he got to properly interact and befriend Queen Haruka in Take the Best Shot I’m not going to pretend that their interactions are very surface level so far. He could have such an interesting dynamic with Mafuyu, Shizuku or Kanade, hell he and Haruka were both in the music industry at a very early age facing a ton of pressure so why not elaborate on that?

And with the whole “using him as a tool to boost Akito and Tsukasa thing” before the First Concerto Toya literally had only two jobs, hyping up Akito and setting up stuff for him and hyping up Tsukasa and setting up stuff for him. Both WOAO and NGUC lean so heavily into this that it’s honestly painful. And when he’s not doing that he gets shafted by the NPCs. Just look at his WL which was entirely about Arata and Souma. Why are we shafting him in favor of NPCs, it’s such a waste and they aren’t even playable.

With that being said the First Concerto is amazing and I hope it only goes up from here but I can’t say I have much hope. He’s regularly getting shafted which is painful no matter how you look at it.

♡ MISSING TRUE FEELINGS - Akito Shinonome, Toya Aoyagi, Tsukasa Tenma, Rui Kamishiro and Kanade Yoisaki x Reader

Akito:

The concepts of the Sekai and true feelings were honestly still very confusing to Akito, but he's happy that him and VBS are all working and growing together

The concept of true feelings was confusing to him, but he always liked to discuss the topic with you. You seemed to know a lot more than he did, for whatever reason

What you never revealed was that you've been searching for your true feelings for years now, and finding someone who has so soon was...more than disheartening

You disappeared for a few days, and Akito grows immensely worried. Sure, he had a crush on you, but he really was worried for your well-being

He went over to your house, having been there multiple times, and called your name. When he got no answer, he went to your room, and his heart sunk

He could see you, on your computer, breaking down in your Sekai. He was panicking, immediately looking for a way in to reach you

The moment he reaches you in your Sekai, he pulls you into a hug. You're obviously startled, but he doesn't care, simply holding you close

"Look, I don't know what's happening, but I'm here for you, alright?" He looks you in the eyes, his hands resting on your shoulders, "I'm here through it all for you." And even if you still didn't know your true feelings, his support got you through <3

Toya:

When it comes Sekais, Toya doesn't really think hard about how they work. He mostly just goes there with his group, and works with them all through their true feelings

He's proud of VBS and himself for working through their true feelings, and he likes to talk about them with you. You were nice company, and you never seemed to mind

You did mind though, because you were someone who had been trying to figure your true feelings out for years. His success helped to highlight your own failure

You had disappeared for a few days, and Toya was more than concerned about it. He knew that he had to go see you, he didn't know what could've happened to you

He texted to let you know he was coming over, but you didn't even see the text by the time he got there. He looked around, immediately going to your room

The sight of you on your laptop, presumably in your Sekai breaking down, broke his heart. He looked around for a way to get to you before it was too late

The moment he entered your Sekai, he called your name to get your attention. He knew you were shocked, but he stood before you, itching to reach out for you

"You don't have to go through this alone." His voice was quiet, a new noise among your Sekai, "I found my true feelings, right? I'll try my best to help you find yours." His determination helped to inspire you. Maybe you really could find them after all <3

Tsukasa:

Considering that the Wonderland Sekai was made from his own true feelings, Tsukasa has learned quite a bit about true feelings and Sekais

Besides the other members of Wonderlanders, he really enjoys your company! He rambles about finding his true feelings to you because he's proud

Although you're also proud of him, you've been hiding the fact that you've been looking for your true feelings for years. You felt like you would never find them

Tsukasa notices your disappearance almost immediately, and rushes to ask around about you. You were his close friend, his crush, he was so worried about you

He loudly announced his presence when he entered your home, but when he received no answer, he went to your room. He was in for a shock, to say the least.

There you were, in your own Sekai, breaking down. He could see you through the screen, and immediately moved to find a way to get to you

When he reaches your Sekai, he immediately calls your name in the most worried tone, sitting in front of you and grabbing your hands tightly

"My co-star, what happened?" He listens if you tell him, he leaves you alone if you don't. Either way, he squeezes your hands in his, smiling at you, "You should know that I'm always here for you! I always will be." He's determined to be the star you need <3

Rui:

Rui is a curious soul, so he's always trying to find out as much as he can about Sekais and true feelings. He always craves to learn more and more

You were someone who always allowed him to indulge in his curiosities on Sekais and true feelings, but whenever he asked you on why you know so much, you dodged it

Truth was, you had been searching for your true feelings for years. While you liked being able to talk him through his, you felt very upset that you hadn't found yours

As someone who's pulled the disappearance act before, Rui knows to immediately be worried and look for you. He's been there for sure, he'll help you out

He goes over to your house, and immediately notices the absence of your presence. He goes to your room, looking around for any signs of you

He finds you then on your computer screen, breaking down all by yourself in your Sekai. It reminds him of himself, and he knows he has to reach you soon

"I can't say I know why you haven't found your true feelings yet, but I know what it's like to be alone." He looks you straight in the eyes, "You won't be alone through this anymore." He's so certain in his resolve that it helps you to believe him <3

He manages to get into your Sekai, and he doesn't say a word, sitting by your side and wrapping an arm around your shoulders. He leads you to rest your head on him

Kanade:

Seeing as Niigo's Sekai is made from Mafuyu's feelings, Kanade is more than used to the concept of helping someone find their true feelings.

She's always looking for people to save, people to help, and she met you through these searches. She always had the feeling that you were hiding something from her...

And hiding you were, because you had been searching for your true feelings for years, by this point. You had felt like Mafuyu was closer to finding them than you'd ever been

You disappeared for a couple days, and Kanade was already getting deja vu. She went through the same with Mafuyu, and she already knew she needed to save you

For once, she left her house in favor of going to yours, unable to shake off the feelings of uneasiness as she entered your room

Her gaze went to your computer, and she felt her need to save you grow more intense as she saw you in the middle of your Sekai, crying your heart out

She knew the ways to enter the Sekai, and she was quick to make her way to you, sitting just across from you. She didn't touch you, not yet anyway

"...I'll save you too." You looked up at her in confusion, only to meet her determined gaze, "You haven't found your true feelings, right?...I'll help you. I promise I will." You're another person that Kanade wishes to help save, and she'll do everything she can <3

I turned the page thinking there was one more to go, but it looks like this is actually split across a double page spread. But since I've seen it let's talk about it anyway!

It's all the worlds we've seen! And in the most CLAMP way possible we see them overflowing and overlapping but THROUGH the frame that Sakura's Wings makes of them. They HAVE the memories of these worlds inside them, and here they visually show us the mess of them all colliding and ripping apart.

And it's gorgeous! Is this all of them? Let's see, if we start in the top left and go counter clockwise we see Acid Tokyo (1), with I think Koryo beneath it (2), and what I am going to assume is the library from Recourt (3). We have a clear Piffle (4), followed by the Land of Fog (5) (justice for the mini-arcs!), and then Infinity (6) which is hilariously just a picture of Eagle Vision since we didn't see much of the world itself outside of his illegal fighting ring. Next is Nihon I think (7), followed by Hanshin (8), and the flower fun district in Shara (9). Above that is Yukito and Toya in Clow (10), going sideways is The Country Which Had Tornado-chan in it (11), and crossing behind both of those is the ferris wheel I think has to be Edonis/Outo (12), above that is Jade (13), Yuuko's store (which I didn't count as a separate world but sure, 14), and Shura - which I technically count as the same as Shara, but sure, let's make that 15 visible worlds.

You could argue that Clow and Acid Tokyo are the same world, which would bring it down to 14, but you could also say that about Shara and Shura, which would do the same. If you did it for BOTH that would bring it down to 13, which means one is missing. Oh, Seresu? Does Seresu not count because it doesn't exist anymore?

Either way! The numbers are murky and the math doesn't really matter but I like that it's close enough and entertaining enough that I stared at a jpg for twenty minutes straight! So that's a win!

“I am Toya Todoroki. The eldest son of Endeavor.”

“That’s what I want to share with you all.”

“I COULDN’T ALLOW IT! To cover up such shady human nature calling it “justice.”

“Seems like you’ve lived a wonderful life.. now die”

ITS THE SAME STARE IM SOBBING

[lesser-mook]

All For One pondering the shonen curse ala plot armor (my hero academia chp 385)  *My Academia Hero Notes*

*has a city busting cannon in his goddamn arm* REPEAT-use btw- not a one time expense, and all these NPC characters (most of whom DO NOT possess endurance or regen quirks btw) survive anyway.

At least a town-city busting feat, and ALL of them survived. Come on, after Jiro did that "you made my friends cry" shit, yeah Final Arc fell flat on her goddamn face. Between that, Ochako's Love Therapy Session, Rei somehow surviving Toya with no combat training, Deku's Ultimate Talk-No Jutsu Flashback--SMASH!! Shit's a joke.

And it's ironic that All For One is at the center of this L, because My Hero started regressing the moment he was removed from the board after Kamino Arc.

That's when the bullshit really started. That Lasertag dodgeball bullshit with the Exam. They immediately supplanted him with Nine (Dollar Tree AFO) then Chisaki, then that stupid as fuck Festival. Then that meaningless as fuck Joint Training Arc, just dry as fuck one after the other. After All For One was gone, the tension, the stakes just dropped.

It's not like he was running shit overseas or anything, or ran the goddamn prison, or he had a clone & the AFO they confiscated was a Perfected-Nomu which would've made more sense. This is a man who is older than 100 years old, a lot of people forget that. Man this shit was dropped hard, so mishandled.

Between Horikoshi's lack of experience, and Shonen Jump breathing down his neck-- Coulda been worse but My Hero really should've been this Generations Justice League Unlimited x Avatar The Last Airbender x Teen Titans 2003

It tried to be all of them in it's own way (Because if you notice, Horikoshi is a fanboy of Western Media), and failed to emulate a single one of them in the ways that mattered.

And the issues began & (from what i'm seeing CHP418++) will end with AFO.

So unfortunate.

pov: *loses quirk

re: *here's your quirk back

pov: *side character explodes with a blast radius that covers several blocks, we just met this woman so her death means less than nothing

re: *she survives anyway, because My Hero Academia

pov: *rabbit b*tch, irrelevant to the plot, annoying, ironically gets more action shit to do solo than the 1A girls we actually know, so whomp to that (Ochako breaks shonen female lead curse) bullshit.

re: *rabbit-idiot survives, SOMEHOW survives a Nomu that can bend spend fucking SPACE-- what's her power? She Jump Good, & kicky. That's it. vs a power that commands a fundamental force of reality.

THAT LOST&FOUND COMIC WAS SO COOL !!!!!

I already loooved you art and your pacing and the jokes and now you start this amazing concept aaaaaaah

Love how Dabi (Toya?) Effortlessly leave his room like it's no big deal but Shouto is too smart for this.

And the pannel about the noodles was my fav because it's so banal yet it tells so much about their relationship and their respective personnality !!!!

So yeah it's gonna be amazing I know it <3

Hi!! Ah thank you so much!! the comic is based on an AU my friend Rose and I have been talking about since forever! And we're both incredibly excited to start sharing it! I honestly thought it was gonna be a bit too niche but I'm so emotional seeing the response!

Thank you so much 😭 I know usually I draw the sillies but I wanted to bring justice to the more emotional side of this story too!

New pages are coming soon!

[class1akids]

What is a story beat ? You said that Hawks sill has a storybeat left probably about Toga / Twice's death?

Sorry if I ask too many questions!… but you wrote this (I really doubt there would be any point in him dying for the narrativ) do you talk about Hawks or Twice ?

I'll take this two together. Story beat is a shift in the narrative. It can be emotional turns, incidents or events, actions, and reactions, or realizations. They can even be small shifts in narrative tone or a character’s emotional arc. 

Hawks' character arc has several different threads, but one important one is his relationship with Twice as a reflection of the tension between a true hero ideal (heroes save / don't kill) and the kind of pragmatic compromises hero society / HPSC taught him as well as Keigo's own perception of Jin being a "good person" and his evaluation of him as the biggest threat.

Basically Keigo's arc goes something like this: idealistic young boy -> groomed by HPSC for efficiency and following of orders -> infiltrates villain organization as a spy -> gets to know a sympathetic villain (Twice) on a personal level -> tries to save Twice in isolation and within the limits of hero society -> fails because he doesn't understand the human bonds Twice values -> he makes the choice to kill Twice as per his training -> aftermath as he's revealed to the public as a child of a villain / a hero who killed someone and his own struggle with the revelations about Endeavor and his own conscience about Twice -> decides to pour his energy into "fixing Endeavor" and avoids facing his own actions re: Twice -> he meets his reckoning on the battlefield when the threat posed by Twice messes up the entire plan via Toga's grief -> Hawks once again wants to deal with it by killing -> he loses his quirk and fails to stop AFO -> with nothing left to protect, he's ready to accept the consequences and stops fighting back against Toga's revenge.

This story-beat parallels Endeavor's decision to finally face Toya (and die with him)

They are both saved by the new gen - Endeavor by Shoto, Hawks by Uraraka. The old generation was ready to succumb to the hopelessness, even Hawks who is a self-proclaimed optimist and someone very much on the borderline between the old gen and the new gen.

So I think the storybeat missing here is some kind of resolution. MHA is an optimistic story and has set up the need for all of society to change so future Twices, Togas and Dabis don't fall through its cracks and so that it can offer villains a credible prospect of re-inclusion into society. Reformative justice if you will.

I don't really think there is a good narrative reason to kill Hawks (or anyone else from the old gen) now in the endgame. Many of them tried to sacrifice themselves - Endeavor, All Might, Edgeshot, Aizawa - but they have all been saved so far. I think that their role in the final part of the story is to get on board with the hopeful direction of the kids.

Since Hawks is the closest in age to the kids and spirit (he is the first one who really tries to save a villain) and since he's also a link between the world of villains and hero society (as the child of a villain and as a spy who infiltrated them), I think it would be natural for him to be spearheading this change. We saw in Ch 323-324 that the public won't necessarily listen to school kids, but Hawks is in a position of authority and if he gets on board with saving the villains, that can be a big push for change (basically it's the same reason the PLF wanted him for - a celebrity for their cause). So this is where the Hawks will save Toga theory comes in. He has the same blood type. There are news helicopters around. The stage is set for him to make some kind of stand that will help change the heart of the public (which was probably already moved by Ochako trying to reach out to Toga and by Toga's self-sacrifice).

I may be wrong of course, but from all the set-up, I'd find it weird if Gunga finished the way things have been left and we'd just skip to the epilogue.
