Ah yes perfect, this is just what I needed

Also on the note of his scars disappearing and erasing his individuality:
AFO here is talking about controlling everything, how it’s better for everyone if he does so, blah blah blah.
Which is interesting because it’s in COMPLETE stark contrast to Shigaraki, who has zero desire to control anything at all, and just wants society destroyed so he and the other people within his scope who have suffered can live how they see fit.
Completely opposite goals. And as one goal takes precedent over the other, Shigaraki’s signs of identity start disappearing.

the new bnha chapter...
i loved the leaked tomura panels, but given the context, it's just..... frustrating.
this is still clearly afo talking. i was expecting maybe while afo was too busy fighting endeavor and others, tomura might have came back for the moment. but no, afo still has the control over tomura's body.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
tomura wouldn't say any of this. for tomura, it was never about creating a new world. it was always about destroying the current one. he didn't plan on becoming a god or anything, he just wanted to be free and take revenge from this society.
i hate this. it's been so long since we saw the real tomura. i want him back

Chapter 358 is very interesting for its informative nature. In it we learn about one of Afo's goals for his long and full life. He wants to create an ideal world where everyone is equal, equally involved in work and life, and works for the good of society. And, of course, this is all under his control, otherwise too much difference between people (and their quirks) could again lead to the collapse of the system. And after all, it is the heroes themselves who aspire to such a world.
And Afo, with his power over the world and the power to control it, will create such a world. And he will, in that case, be like the unrecognized Hero who achieved it.
Hero. Not so long ago, he said, “Everyone can be a Hero to someone.”
And now the key meaning in his monologue in chapter 358 is equality among people, the absence of difference, and hence the absence of misunderstanding and the absence of fear and rejection.
And who was rejected by society because he was different from them? Who was almost feared by people for his thought streams because they did not understand him?
Midoriya Izuku.
All for Son.

Since Bakugo's back in the manga, I'm seeing more of the same old arguments about why Bakugo's actually a bad character/person/whatever circling the fandom, and I figured, since no one asked, I'd share my thoughts and maybe dispute some of the more frequent issues people have. Considering my username, I feel like it's basically my duty lmao.
To start with the one I hear most often:
1) Bakugo gets away with being an asshole and his attitude is terrible
Horikoshi spends a lot of time working through the fact that while Bakugo can genuinely be a huge dick, he "gets away" with his general loud-mouthed, crass, rude attitude because, for the most part, people don't take him seriously. Like, Horikoshi goes out of his way to show him openly being mocked (bus ride to the USJ facility, during his internship with Best Jeanist a bunch of kids taunt him, the whole remedial course program with the kids who think he's as threatening as a house fly, basically every pro hero he interacts with), but also has the other characters mostly disregard the things Bakugo says. Why? Because it's made clear, frequently and often, that he doesn't actually mean them. He'll tell Kaminari he'll kill him and not even move. There's no follow through, and he's often teased about it or ignored. At best, someone will express annoyance. The use of other characters as a tonal tell is a method of including us, the audience, in the joke. The joke being, in this case, that whatever Bakugo's saying is meant sarcastically/humorously. Like most things, it's all about context.
Additionally, did you think the scene with Bakugo's mom was supposed to just be funny? It also is meant to inform the audience about where Bakugo got his speaking habits from, and helps show that, to him, telling someone to go fuck themselves is just like. How you talk to people. Pretty sure he genuinely thinks shouting is how you show you're listening and engaged. Class 1A picks up very quickly that, while yes Bakugo has a temper, he's almost all bark and no bite, except for the occasions when he does actually lose it. Which leads me to another common complaint:
2) Bakugo experiences no real consequences
This is just... straight up not true. Just about every single time he acts like an actual asshole, Bakugo gets immediate and direct consequences that occur specifically because of his own actions.
Examples: Bakugo gets all uppity about having a powerful quirk and tells Midoriya to kill himself -> he nearly gets murdered like two hours later because he's unable to defend himself. He tries to attack Midoriya on their first day of school -> he loses their first real fight (in front of their childhood hero no less) and gets pretty solidly humiliated. He goes nuts at the sports festival -> he doesn't get many internship opportunities he gets kidnapped by a fucking terrorist group. He smacks Midoriya during their final exam and doesn't want to cooperate -> Midoriya Detroit smashes his face lol. He acts like a huge asshole at the licensing exam -> he doesn't get his hero license. Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera.
And if your argument is that those aren't "real" consequences or whatever, keep in mind that part of writing consequences for a character well means tailoring them to what that character cares about and finds important, which guess what—Horikoshi does. All the consequences Bakugo faces tie into his character growth, and deal with issues that he takes extremely seriously, namely his hero career. Equally—and I've mentioned this before—it is not in the spirit of the story to go full on Gone Girl fuck-up-your-life on characters who start off being less than stellar. Especially since Bakugo basically functions as the character version of a moral litmus test for the audience; if you can't bring yourself to believe that a schoolyard bully deserves a second chance, how can you ever believe that real villains, who have killed people and done other awful shit, could ever deserve a shot at redemption?
Moving on!
3) Bakugo is too OP/has too much plot armor
To some extent, I mean, yeah. That's a fair argument. Bakugo is a prodigy, that's a big part of his character, and his quirk doesn't have any specific downsides or limitations the end up hindering him more than in passing. However, I will point out that as the story goes on and we're introduced to more pro heroes, overpowered quirks with limited or no downsides become much more common, so it doesn't stick out as much. Besides, when creating a character who wants to be the best hero in the world, who you'd like to have even a fighting chance in a universe where almost everyone has super powers, he kind of needs to have a badass quirk. Also, considering All Might is the figure both Bakugo and Midoriya are trying to live up to... that is overpowered. And as we're seeing in the manga, Bakugo is starting to come up short in the rat race. So I think some of the OP arguments had greater merit back in the day, but I don't really feel like they hold much water anymore.
When it comes to the plot armor issue... I see people's points, and don't always disagree, but Bakugo is the deuteragonist of the story, and he's in a shonen manga. Like of course he's got plot armor. Most of the universe wouldn't even function if there wasn't a lot of plot armor, because many of the quirks we see are basically magic and the fight scenes require a heck of a lot of suspension of disbelief. In the real world Deku wouldn't even have arms anymore. So yeah, I get it, but also... you know. Chill.
Lastly:
4) Bakugo hasn't actually made up for his actions against Midoriya
This one kind of ties in with the consequences one and also the attitude one, in that a lot of people's arguments about this are frankly just unrealistic. Like what exactly do you want Bakugo to do that he hasn't already done? Change his personality entirely? Be publicly humiliated and experience horrific suffering? What is the purpose? Especially when Midoriya, the person Bakugo has most hurt, has never once expressed that he wants Bakugo to be less like himself. He just wants them to be closer. Yes he could yell less, but Midoriya likes being competitive with Bakugo, he likes having someone who pushes him and won't put up with bullshit. He doesn't actually want Bakugo to change who he is as a person.
Additionally, I think it's only fair to point out that Bakugo has done most of his growth largely unaided and by himself. That's incredibly impressive. Like he, a sixteen year old with an inferiority complex and anger issues, realizes he was out of line and has a fucked-up view of the world and his relationships, and spends a lot of time, energy, and care in basically overhauling his entire life philosophy. Again, pretty much completely by himself. He takes responsibility for his own actions, he goes out of his way to try and fix his mistakes, he apologizes to Midoriya (publicly, expressing the emotions and reasons behind his actions without excusing them, and without pressuring Midoriya to forgive him, allowing the ball to fall firmly in Midoriya's court), and works to support Midoriya in any way he can, including taking a fucking bullet (slash weird finger blade thingy) to the chest to protect him. Nobody forced Bakugo to do those things, he chose to because he genuinely wants to do and be better. At this point, sure he's still a loud-mouth little shit, but being a loud-mouth little shit was never the problem, and he's addressed the things that were problems.
Basically, the point I'm trying to make is that while it's absolutely fine to not like Bakugo—he'll never appeal to everyone, no character can—a lot of the issues people bring up with him are relatively unfounded or over-exaggerated. If you're someone who dislikes him, cool! Just try to find something less superficial to criticize him for.

It was never meant to be: IzuOcha
It still strikes me upto this date that not just once but TWICE, Ochako had the chance to confess her feelings for Midoriya and yet it never happened. There is a war going on and they're just children, mere high schoolers thrown to fight pro level villains.
This is the perfect time for them to confess anything, if there is anything to begin with. We all know that MHA is in its final phase.
Horikoshi is trying to tie all lose ends possible. This guy is literally speed running everything in like 3-4 dialogs or a chapter at most.
So basically, if the IzuOcha confession was a thing in Horikoshi's checklist,..
This was the perfect time!
And yet it never happened...
They had the chance and yet it was dedicated to show Ochako's progress as a hero. We see that she's no longer doing her Deku-kun-Deku-kun dance after seeing him. She's not even trying to strike a conversation from her side...
...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And before anyone says she was blushing for Deku, she clearly wasn't because that's her nature. She was bashful even when Iida said that. Notice for even it's the same words "Aww Shucks!"
It's totally normal and not just for Deku.
What also striked my mind was this panel shot of Ochako after Bakugo catches Deku. Notice how almost everyone runs to catch him expect her.
She doesn't move an inch because she knew Bakugo would catch Deku. She had the chance to close the distance this entire time but she doesn't.
Tumblr media
We see that she maintains her distance from him and when was the last time she was thinking about him? Even that doesn't happen anymore.
I think it's a sign.
Tumblr media
We already have great ships like KamiJiro and KiriMina and even BakuDeku that are well developed, so we can't just say that Horikoshi doesn't know how to write Romance and love stories. But what if those feelings that Ochako though were never there to begin with?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It was always someone else bringing it up and teasing her that made her blush, specifically Mina who herself has no experience in that department. She clearly remains fine until she is reminded of that.
We see that even during their cliff conversation, none of them try to close the distance. Deku simply thanks her, she's all bashful about it, Deku compliments her (maybe to subconsciously reassure her) which even she brushes off like nothing. Instead she changes the topic completely and starts talking about Toga.
Tumblr media
They're standing metres apart and the speech bubble divides them. It's ironic that what separates them is the bubble saying "we'll stop them for sure" meaning that their goal will definitely separate them some day.
Even during her encounter with Toga she stated that she's been thinking about her a lot lately. When Toga tried to confess for Chako even that got stopped by Tsu.
This is something related to what I saw on twitter yesterday and I thought about how similar my opinions were, this entire time.
The confession never happened because it was just never there.

Reading the new chapter, I’m not sure anymore that Deku and Bakugou haven’t talked yet. He seems to know about Shigaraki being possessed by AFO.
Then there is an obvious parallel between  the Slime Villain trying to possess Bakugou.
Tumblr media
and Tomura being possessed by AFO. 
Tumblr media
Tomura, who is the stand in for Yoichi. Yoichi who was rescued by the 2nd Vestige.
Tumblr media
Bakugou and his clear parallels to the 2nd - it’s all coming together.
Tumblr media
 Win to live vs saving people to win
Tumblr media
And yes, Bakugou is clearly being built up to be the one to try to reach Tomura and make him an ally in the fight against AFO. 
Tumblr media
The question is how, because the door to do that is inside the vestige plane.
