Mineta's Only Purpose

Mineta's Only Purpose

Everyone knows Mineta is a useless grape head whose only purpose is to sexually harrass girls. He has almost no redeemable characteristics and his character isn't even aesthetically pleasing. Overall he's a failure of a character who the whole fandom despises.

Now, the creator of BNHA, Horikoshi, has made dozens of loveable characters who interact well together. It wouldn't be so hard to remove Mineta or make his character more understandable and relatable, because they've taken the time to do that with tons of characters. Giving him a decent backstory and making him redeemable could have happened, if that is what they wanted.

But it's not.

Mineta is purposely made to be irredeemable. He's made to be hateable. Why? Because if the whole fandom hates Mineta the most than it saves other characters from being scrutinized or written off as bad (especially if they've yet to have their redemption arcs). Because, "Oh, Kaminari is a perv, but not as bad as Mineta" will allow people to appreciate characters they'd otherwise write off as their least favourite.

We can all agree that Mineta sucks, (and hell, the story would probably be better without him) but he's still something that brings the fandom together. A character we can all collectively hate because he has no redeeming qualities. At the very least, BNHA fans know they can always find common ground on hating Mineta.

Art I drew for a friends comic on insta!!!! They're @south_park_otw and you should totally check their au out!

College au where Keith and Pidge are roommates and Lance is the poor ghost that haunts their dorm.

Lance tries to make it obvious that a ghost is haunting them; but most of the time he ends up plugging in their phones so their alarms will actually go off, finish their forgotten homework, and (most importantly) making them coffee in the morning!

Keith and Pidge don't even notice half of the odd stuff going on because they're so sleep deprived and done with life. The few things they do notice they blame on aliens (neither of them believe in ghosts).

Will definitely elaborate more on this!

In episode 2 when Carmen crashed her classes caper, she took a selfie of herself in Morocco.

I imagine after that she probably takes selfies of herself every time she makes a new trip/stop and probably sends some of them to Player!

Sock is just so much fun to draw, but Jonathan takes ef. F o r t
