(bnha 364 spoilers)

I'm probably going to voice an unpopular opinion here, but Edgeshot sacrificing himself to save Bakugou didn't have the emotional impact that a scene of self sacrifice is supposed to have in my book. Yeah, I'm glad Bakugou will live (not that I ever feared he wouldn't) and that an adult is taking responsibility for not letting a minor die in a war he should've never taken part in... But imho this is a recurring problem in bnha. We are told that heroes are people who self-sacrifice for others, and they do, but only ever to save other heroes. See Crust dying to save Aizawa. Sir dying to save Mirio and Eri. Star and Stripe dying to save her colleagues. There is a sob story behind all of those scenes, yes, but what's lacking... Are the stakes. We expect the heroes of the story, the protagonists, to survive. We expect someone to shield them from a fatal injury, even. Only if we forget that they're characters in a story that cannot die before they fulfill their narratives are we really able to fear for their lives.

Bakugou's death was always temporary to me. I never feared that it would be permanent. He has plot armor, he's the heart of the story because he's a kid and he's part of the new generation that will carry heroism to a new age, and he has a crowd of people — mentors, teachers, seniors, friends — willing to protect him at all costs.

You know who has no one willing to guard their life as fiercely and promptly? The villains. And you know which characters are under constant threat of dying horribly and painfully, and yet are barely seen through human lenses through it all? Still the villains.

Writing a kid on the verge of death + a hero sacrificing to save him doesn't have much of an emotional pull, when that's the standard pretty much all the story lives by. But if you want a plot twist that readers don't expect, that lines up better with the kind of change you want to see the new gen push forward, the kind of twist that would prove that heroes save people and not just their friends...

Have a hero self-sacrifice to save a villain — someone whose life no one thought was worth the gesture. Have a hero die to give impact to their beliefs, to stand by them when all the other heroes wouldn't give it the time of day.

Have a hero die to save a life, and not just an ally. Have their death be an inspiration to those who will outlive them, and not just paint them as another pitiful victim on whose behalf the heroes who survive will then feel self-righteously furious and vengeful

I guarantee that will have a lot more power than... This

Let’s play another game:

Name a MHA character outside of 1-A who deserved better.

For me, it’s Crust. Even though he appears like twice, he’s a character I quickly fell in love with. Guy was such a wholesome dude with a cool quirk. I legitimately think he could’ve been a positive role model to Izuku as both are emotional. Crust could’ve helped teach a Izuku that it’s ok to express emotions and there’s no shame in doing so. Sadly, he ended up dying to protect Shota 😞.

WHO LET SHIGGY BE SO GORGEOUS

The 12 disasters days of Christmas…

(Indeed I am starting the Christmas posting now <3)

Note that I said "Top Ten". So just these 10 choices. I am aware there are other Pro Heroes, this isn't about them right now. BEHAVE

Yo Lil Sprouts! What do you want for Patch Stencils.

No really. I need ideas other then my Mha series (tho I would love ideas for those!)

Tomura discovering a hard truth after Kurogiri is captured:

Toga: “I feel bad that Tomura’s so torn up over Kurogiri.”

Twice: “I wish there was something we could do to cheer him up.”

Spinner: “I took him lunch a bit ago, hopefully a nice meal will raise his spirits—“

Tomura walks into the room: “There’s something wrong with my sandwich.”

Twice: “What?”

Tomura, pointing to the crust: “That.”

Toga: “The crust?”

Tomura: “The what? What is it??!?”

Spinner: “It’s… the crust… every bread has crust—“

Tomura, running out of the room: “KUROGIRI’S DIDN’T!”

Spinner: “…”

Toga: “…”

Twice: “So, is anyone gonna eat that?”

I made scones last night and referred to the shell that fell in my mixing bowl as "egg crust" which I've never done before and hope i never do again

Match 30 - Shield Hero: Crust VS Rikido Sato - Sweets Hero: Sugarman

Man what a hell of an episode, this season really keeps killing it. I'm so happy they're giving endeavor the respect he deserves, any shot with him is just so well animated I can't wait to see when he's in an actual serious fight this season.

Tokoyami came in clutch, even if he did need a bit of help from the plot to prevent Dabi's colonel ass from Kentucky frying him and hawks. But I do like seeing the relationship between him and hawks develop, I'd like to see tokoyami actually fight dabi but it's just a bad match up for him.

Yo my main man crust, he was always just a background character for me but there's just something about how they animated his noble sacrifice and saving Aizawa. When they showed him giving that thumbs up my heart went out for him and he got my respect, Crust the g.o.a.t.

Seeing it animated I really feel the akira vibes with shigaraki in that cape. Poor X-less, he did everything right but a random spark was all it took to doom him. Also this is another thing I really hate in shonen where they make the villains seem so overwhelmingly powerful that it makes it hard to believe when the good guys win. Like it's hard to imagine how the heroes can actually beat shigaraki since he got all the magic upgrade soup from the doctor.
