R-a-y b-a-n glasses anniversary, only this day!

Homosexual Pride UNITE!!

School Balloon Volleyball!! I think.

Thi is a list of toxic things going down in the BNHA/MHA fandom. No spoilers: please don’t let a fandom ruin a great piece of art for you. 

gatekeeping

accusing people who make fan art of characters as brown being “racism”

ACTUAL racism (ie use of the n-word by nonblack people)

seriously black women in this fandom are attacked all the time

 people who just happen to ship a female character with a male character being accused of being homophobic

 BUT people who ship basically any of the students (especially mlm) in a super innocent fluffy way, being accused of sexualizing minors

People who writes smut are accused of sexualizing minors

But when they age the characters up to appease those people, they are then accused of still trying to sexualize minors because “it’s still the same character blah blah blah”

people who read/write smut are accused of being actual pedophiles and condoning rape???

did I mention this entire anime is 1.) incredibly sexless with barely any romance and 2.) told entirely in flashback so all the characters are adults just looking back 3.) a 2d superhero show that reflects nothing and no one irl

people who like a certain character with an abusive past being accused of condoning child abuse

People who don’t like the villain characters with a sad past being accused of hating all abuse victims

shipping literally character A with a villain or character B, who they used to dislike, gets you accused and blocked and death threats for “amplifying toxic relationships” whatever the fuck that means

keep in mind none of these accusers ever seem to y’know...hunt down or report actual racists, pedos, or toxic abusers

copying and pasting fanartists and fanfic writers to get more likes with 0 shame or credit

Taking other people’s work and posting it on TikTok w/o permission

Belittling people based on their comfort characters

Forcing people off of tumblr/ao3 and making them never write again due to constant unceasing anon hate.

transphobia

people stealing audio plays and writing them as their own

aggressive kinkshaming

endless and baseless bashing and criticism of asmr artists (Xaid, Yagami Yato, XIX Rin, YuuriVoices, Akira Dubs etc.)

again, Hero Academia is masterful in so many ways with so many good people who love it. Don’t let that be spoiled for you.

But if you are one of those people and reading this made you realize your toxicity, you have a lot of apologies to make. Or just use the goddamn block button.

If this makes people leave the fanbase...good. I’d rather a small but healthy fandom than a large confused one oozing toxicity.

I hope my fellow writers and artists know I love them.

Go Beyond. Plus Ultra!
