Horikoshi Breaking Away From The Typical Shonen(and Media In General)Formula and DudeBros Can't Stand It.

I kinda wanted to talk about Horikoshi's writing; because it is really good. I feel like all the hate he has been getting and has gotten is so stupid. Not enough people are talking about it. (Probably because it's the Izuchakos making a ruckus.)

(⚠ I encourage everyone to try and keep in my mind that if you ever see people like this: do not interact. Just report them,they are not worth your time. And if they annoy you,try and stay kind and respectful,if they don't return the favor: REPORT. I don't choose what you do though,so,if you want to talk to them be my guest,but I encourage you to be respectful to try and spread positivity whenever you can even in the midst of a fucking asshole.We are all people behind these screens at the end of the day so let's be kind and civil.⚠)

Is Horikoshi Objectively Bad At Writing?

Okay,real quick,to the people who have and do @ Horkoshi to insult him and his manga: WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?! As long as Horikoshi hasn't done anything actually wrong,like a crime or somethin' you should not @ him to call him an awful person because you don't like that the story isn't going in the direction you thought it was and now you're throwing a tantrum how he writes.

Obviously everyone has an opinion,but for a thing to be objectively bad writing would be:

No Consistent Plot

No Foreshadowing (That's more of my opinion,but still)

No Character Arcs

Close To No Character Interactions

And No Passion

This would be objectively bad writing,but no matter what you opinion is on Horikoshi and his writing,this are things he EXCELS in. You may not like it,but he does,especially in the foreshadowing apartment,which again is a more personal critic on most shows and things I read. If something has no and or bad foreshadowing I kinda hate it. But the arc for the story and characters has been consistent if you have actually read the manga. Like,I see people who left the fandom and dropped the manga and come back like,

"I dropped the manga,and I have no idea what's happening,but I'm just gonna say it bad and make no sense because I watched season one and read the first ten chapters >:( " People will admit they have not read all the chapters or dropped the show/manga And will claim they know it's bad even though they don't have any knowledge of the show essentially. And these people are typically Bakugo antis,so it just goes to show: People who read all of it have the same understanding of the people who have barely read any of it in regards to Bakugo's character.

Bakugo's Death Not Being a Redemption, But A Way To Show Izuku's Feelings.

(*I could not even fathom the feeling of working so hard,and people @ you that. It is so sad. I feel bad for Horikoshi,he does not deserve this hate,so,I will continue making posts about antis like this until they kinda disappear out of embarrassment when a certain relationship becomes canon.*)

Okay,here is a problem with shows in general:

STOP KILLING OFF CHARACTERS TO "REDEEM" THEM.

It is just so...lazy. Like,you can't write an actual good character development arc so you kill them off just so you don't have to keep them as a villain or whatever.

And with Katsuki,he's already redeemed himself. You know with the best apology to ever exist. This temporal death is important to his and Izuku's relationship. It was to show people,like this:

(*this is funny because this person used an "anti bkdk" tag for just Horikoshi's writing. So,they are admitting Horikoshi is a shipper,and that it is close to being canon.*)

The thing he spelled out wayyyyyyy before this.

Example:

Katsuki's death was to expand on Izuku's Black Whip arc,and to show that his feelings,the ones he has to control,cause him to become selfish.

And the whole "there are no stakes" argument is so stupid ,this manga is not about how Izuku can kick ass,it's about self love,love,forgiveness,self forgiveness,and just the impact that feelings have on people's lives and the world. If a show or book needs to have death to make their story interesting then the author isn't good at writing. And if you need death to make a story interesting for you,then watch and or read something that has a lot of character death. I also hate that they are so self absorbed that they claim they are the TARGET AUDIENCE.

Ego And Target Audience

(*That last one.did this person really just say that...a Fictional story was made up? I-I...I am mildly disappointed in this person's IQ. Or maybe they're too smart for me to understand.*)

...I...wha? Honey,Hori started making manga because his mom loved his drawings,Inko is also based off his mother,and Horikoshi is just a more emotional guy overall. Look,I think this manga is for EVERYONE,but things can have a target audience,and that target audience may be: Woman,"Feminine" guys(or just guys who's masculinity is not so fragile they can admit they have feelings,thoughts and emotions,and maybe they aren't the target audience for everything),and queer people.

Look,these are the people who understand and are more impacted by the story more than people like this,who have such a big ego that every main MC who's a dude is for them. Izuku,whether you want to admit it or not,is in touch with his feminine side. He openly cries,shares his feelings,(unless they're his feelings for Kacchan) has emotional intelligence,and is just kind and sweet to people in general. He has what most people would describe as, "feminine traits."

So,no,you are not the "target audience" ,but you can enjoy books,movies,shows,ect,without being the target audience. It may mean more and be more impactful for woman and mainly queer people such as myself. Which it has.

When Twice and Toga corrected Overhaul on using the wrong pronouns,I teared up. I never,and I mean never,had someone openly call me by they/them pronouns in my day to day life,so to see someone get the respect they deserve they way I've never had,made me a little emotional.

(*For context they were happy that Hori killed off Katsuki and they were making jokes about how it "ended bkdk," and was all dandy until Hori brought him back, then they started insulting the manga.*)

So,to sit there and insult Horikoshi,for writing the manga the way he's intended to,and at the same time claim that you are the target audience is so...Egotistical. And it honestly shows how much,these people will contradict themselves just to try and be right. Because if one Shonen,show,movie,book,and or comic,isn't about them their whole life is OVER. They act like a Shonen having a canon queer MC is the death of them,LITERALLY.

It really pisses me off the these people will say this is for them;and then as soon as something happens that they don't like,or proves that they aren't the target audience and not everything is going to cater to them(or their previous assumptions of the manga were wrong,and people that have been pointing this stuff out for years have been proven right),they immediately go to death threats and complaining.

Conclusion:

Stop insulting Horikoshi's work because it isn't what you expected,then turn around and claim you're the target audience. Horikoshi has been working HIMSELF TO DEATH to finish this,and you are seriously going to @ him to die because he didn't kill off a character? He's been working on this for ten years and is going to end it the way he wants to,the only person that has him at "gun point" is the people actively @ ing him because they can't handle the very thought of a Shonen MC being queer. And Characters do not need to die to make stories good.

pinnochio! 🫵🤣 you will never be a real boy!

i mean pinnochio did become a real boy. that was a pretty significant part of the story. i understand that you’re just being transphobic but pinnochio did very much become a real boy.

What if acotar antagonists got the same level of justification as our 'heroes' from the Night Court did?

Them: Wait, so, you think Tommy’s closet joke was actually hysterical and made you love his character even more instead of hating him?

[mqrianos]

jess mariano and rory gilmore are literally the SAME people at their core, just in opposite fonts. they MIRROR each other and are each other's TWIN FLAMES. that's exactly why they understand each other better than everyone else (asp herself said so). both are raised by teen moms and have deadbeat dads. yet, one is nurtured with love and care with a mom like lorelai. and the other is abandoned & ignored by a flaky mom like liz. both develop an immense love for reading regardless of whether it became kind of a coping mechanism. both exceed normal expectations of intelligence required for their age. hence, one goes above and beyond, strives for perfection with it, and craves validation while the other could not care less what people think and says "fuck it. rules don't matter anymore for me. i know stuff". one becomes stars hollow's princess, held onto a pedestal by everyone around her. the other becomes stars hollow's pariah, hated by every person he meets. both are under intense scrutiny by people where one is held to exceptionally high standards and the other is seen as "good for nothing". both of them break out of those respective moulds as soon as they become young adults. and both play a pivotal role in helping each other break out of those moulds and still be true to their inner selfs. I COULD WRITE AN ENTIRE TEN-PAGE ESSAY ON THE PARALLELS BETWEEN THEM....I REALLY COULD!

i don't understand simple economic concepts but that's okay because it's just #girl maths and i love being lazy but that's fine because it's my #girl job and this movie was complicated until i replaced nuclear war with the idea of me losing my favourite lipstick thank god for explanations for the #girls and yes i have an eating disorder but don't worry it's just #girl dinner and men love the roman empire but #girls care more about pop culture... like omfg are you people hearing yourselves?!??!

[blairelythere]

I'm so tired of work. I'm so tired of the concept of work. Why must 90% of my life be getting ready for work, commuting to work, working, and doing errands after work?

Am I not allowed to just be silly? And lounge naked with other gays? Why do I have to be slutty and silly on The Man's schedule?

Hell yeah im T4T 😎💪 (therian 4 therian)

"Can't People (of the same gender) Just Be Friends Anymore? "

This is gonna be a fun one.

I kinda never went over this in my, "Deku Is Straight" post,and I guess it is a little different; but it's still a very popular argument against just queer ships in general. So,I will bring up how queer shippers get treated in most fandoms and just some problems in the media when it comes to representation; but it will mostly be about GreeNade and BNHA.

(⚠This post is not supposed to be hating on any one! It's absolutely fine if people view certain relationships as platonic,but what's not okay is having double standards and being a godamned hypocrite about it. This is just addressing issues that seem to pop up mainly against the queer shipping communities; not some kind of hate post. I encourage everyone to try and have an open mind and to try and be respectful of everyone's opinions.And as usual: as long as something is legal,ship away!⚠)

Broship

If you could not tell the ones on the top are taking about this scene:

And,from what I'm reading,they didn't get it. Bakugo didn't do it for "humanity" he didn't do it because Izuku is just a good friend of his. His.Body.Moved.On.Its.Own. He wanted to protect Izuku so badly that his body made him do it. He also copied Izuku,like when Izuku's body moved in its own...? Y'know,like,the scientifically proven thing you do when you love someone in a romantic way?

(*Also,when Izuku does this for Ochaco he second guesses himself and forces himself to do it unlike with Kacchan. Just found that interesting; and Izuku even says "it wasn't like last time" because he had to force himself to move. His thoughts also get cut off before he can come to a conclusion...hmmm,interesting.*)

Which Izuku has done this about a million times and even admits to it,

but chapter 285 is where Bakugo mirrors Izuku(he has,I believe in some other moments in the manga,I can't remember for sure; but this is the chapter it's most apparent in.) ,he also does the analyzing thing Izuku does.

Okay,now that is the significance (there is so much more that makes it so beautiful but that was just some of the quick stuff) So,can we really call this "friendship" ? Honestly,I guess,if you don't know anything about the relationship prior to this scene...actually no that's wrong. My Aunt saw this scene and asked if they were canon,she had not known anything about bnha/mha at the time. And when I gave context she was like, "so they're gay,?"

So, yeah. That scene even with no context; looks like someone dying for the person they love. But,perspective.

Here's the thing I'm addressing in this post. It isn't, "Guys,they don't do this for their other friends and they mirror each other on accident and the author himself doesn't refer to them as friends,ect,ect." There is too much that supports them being romantically interested in each other,but that's not the point. The whole "Friendship is dead,isn't it?" because people can see two dudes/girls liking each other romantically is.

And that moves us to the next section of this post.

Double Standards

The only time when someone says something like this Is when it's between people of the same gender. They aren't mad at people for shipping Momo with Izuku because they're just friends,that's okay because...don't tell anyone this is a secret antis have...they don't care as long as it's straight.

If it's queer it's "Friendship dead :(" but if it's someone like Melissa it's okay. It's honestly so...pathetic.

"Boy and boy have to be friend or my life is over 😠" or "Gal Pals or my life is RUINED 😨" Like, I have never seen someone get mad about straight ships like this. Honey,if someone said, "WHY can't a guy and girl just be friends for once?" Everyone would laugh in their face. Which is actually something I wish was normalized more. Once I had a dude friend and my whole family made fun of us and I literally cried because I had just figured out I liked girls a lot more than boys and I was having this thing pushed on me. That does not happen with gay people,actually get this,being called gay is still used as an insult.

(*That first one though...Like do they not know there are several canon trans characters and bisexual characters in bnha? And the Izuchako drawing 💀 I cried I was laughing so hard the first time I saw it.*)

If you know about the sonic idw comics,there are these two characters Whisper and Tangle. People instantly started shipping them because they were so cute with each other,but other people were mad because "two girls just can't be friends anymore" and it pretty much happens in every show that isn't LGBTQ+ centric.

Because people aren't going to read/watch Heartstopper and go, "Uh,these guys are straight why do you keep shipping them?" And as much as I love that we are getting stories and shows all about the queer experience, it does still piss me off that if it isn't something like a queer romance drama and or comedy people get mad at queer people for being in other things. People will be like, "You have shows that are centered around being queer,stop bringing it into our stuff," and it's exhausting. Like,there are billions of T.V shows,moves,books,comics,ect,that have nothing to do with a romance centered plot but they throw in this random hetro relationship that doesn't add to the characters or plot.

And that's one of the reasons I love BloodBubbles and GreNade,they add to the characters and parallel the story into their dynamics. I think all romance in stories should be like that. If a romantic relationship doesn't add anything but a little *smooch* *smooch* then it is ultimately useless. I understand if people like the *smooch* *smooches* but don't act like the relationship is well developed and needed. With a romance centered plot the romance is obviously needed. But does it mean it's good? Hell no. Most romantic movies have the characters fall in love in a week. That's just my opinion though.

Conclusion:

Stop using the "can't two people of the same sex/gender be friends anymore" argument,it just shows how much you do not know about queer people/relationships or just relationships in general. Queer people should be able to be represented in (God forbid) a Shonen and just media in general that isn't just a romance show. Everyone has different thoughts,opinions,and experiences,that shapes them into having a different perspective on things; but just because they have a different perspective doesn't mean it can disprove a plantain fact: Straight people have representation. Straight people do not need to fight for it either. So,stop fighting to be oppressed so badly.

Sorry to get so serious in the end...here this might lighten the mood!

This is the angle number for 285! The chapter Bakugo's body moved on its own. I find the angle number being about kindness very interesting. :)

That worked right? Also,I like doing the conclusion in a bigger font,so I'll probably be doing that from now on when I'm wrapping my posts up.

Genuine Q: How have some readers interpreted Azriel as some pervy, love-obsessed, creep?

ACOMAF

Elain said to Azriel, perhaps the only two civilized ones here

Though she’d probably cling to Azriel, just to have some peace and quiet.

ACOWAR

"Azriel is the only polite one." "Don't even try to pretend that it's not true." "Of course it's true,"

"Azriel has never once said anything that awful.”

"I know you're not Illyrian, but ... amongst their kind, it is considered... inappropriate to touch someone's wings without permission. Especially females." [asking permission to touch Feyre’s wings]

Relax,’ Rhys said. ‘Azriel isn’t the ravishing type.’

ACOFAS

"He is Elain's mate. It would be an invasion of her privacy to track him."

"Sit. I'll take care of it."

"Wait until everyone is seated before eating."

Every interaction with Nesta!!!

like, did we all read the same books??
