I thought I was the only one who get annoyed when people saw Inosuke as Bakugou of Demon Slayer because HE IS FAR FROM THAT. There is a line between being short-tempered and act brutal for being raised in the wild with having superiority complex and being a petty bully (Inosuke has kind of superiority complex, but at least, it's not because he wants to be number 1, but because he is genuinely interested to people's strength, so that's why he treats fighting like it's a fun game to him, while Baku see everything as winning. Inosuke didn't whine when he loses, instead he was surprised and amazed by others' strength, while Baku throws temper tantrum when he loses).

It's also invalidating his backstory because his backstory explaining his constant short-tempered attitude : being raised in the wild. Children who raised in the wild will become feral and Inosuke is literally a feral wild child. While Bakugou was raised in the modern city and modernized environment.

Also, I'm sick people comparing InoTan with BakuDeku just because both of the ship features "sweet kindhearted green bean and feral gremlin" like didn't Baku abusing Deku for fucking 10 years, even telling him to jump off the roof over being quirkless (which is suicide-baiting)??? While Inotan mostly focused on Inosuke looking up Tanjiro as the way to learn how to socializes with humans, so whenever Tanjiro showing kindness to everyone, Inosuke is like "Oh, so this is how I supposed to treat humans". Tanjiro also look up to him for strength. Both look up each other to motivated themselves. While BakuDeku? Nothing than just constant physical abuses, bullying and insults 24/7 non-stop.

It's shit like this that makes me glad that I'm not into MHA because the series seems like normalizing bullying and it's portrayed as a-okay with it. What kind of message is that???

DUDE YOU WORDED THIS SO WELL !! i Hate bakudeku its literally the same old misogynistic trope of “he bullies him cause he likes him<3” LIKE NO !!! that is gross !!!!! ive heard ?? bakugo has a somewhat redeeming moment in the last manga arc, but its been a while since ive read it so im honestly not sure. either way though its so fucking weird ?? like idk about yall but i wouldnt want to date someone who bullied me for years .... coming from someone who was bullied to far extents in middle school. im really convinced people only like bakugo because hes “hot” (which i honestly dont think he is, but most people seem to think that). inotan has a healthy dynamic of tanjiro showing inosuke kindness and such whereas bkdk has a disgusting misogynistic one

literally the only connection between inosuke and bakugo is that theyre loud and “angry”. one of my friends dislikes inosuke because of the scene when he beat up zenitsu for the box with nezuko but like ?? how the hell else would he act, he was raised by wild boars for crying out loud. you wouldnt know “decency” either if you were raised in an environment like that.

i do get why bakugo is the way he is, and i even relate to him a bit, but that doesnt excuse how he’s treated izuku just for existing.
