Thank You For Answering My Question About Uraraka And The Info You Gave Was The Perfect Amount ^^, I

thank you for answering my question about uraraka and the info you gave was the perfect amount ^^, i do have another question if you dont mind me asking: now according to the wiki bakugou went up against kirishima in the quarter-final round and then in the semi-final round bakugou went up against tokoyami. if uraraka won against bakugou, do you think she would've won against kirishima?

bonus question that you can ignore: bakugou losing means that tokoyami would go up against todoroki in the final round of the sports festival. so in this alternate bracket, do you think tokoyami or todoroki would've won?

Glad my reply were what you were looking for!

Now for your first question:

Do I think Uraraka will beat Kirishima in a fight? I do, but despite what many would assume, it wouldn’t be as one sided. And I can actually see Kirishima can come out on top as well.

Naturally, people will think because of Ochako’s zero gravity, it’s an ace in the hole win for her. However, in order to do that, she has to touch him to make her quirk work. And despite how the fandom likes to have him come off as a bit of a meathead, I do believe Kirishima has the wherewithal to not give her the opportunity. Which is why i would see him forcing her on the defensive like he did Bakugou, because while it’s a simple style of fighting, Kirishima at least *has* hand to hand training. Ochako at the time does not have type of physical combat training. It all depends on Ochako tanking a hit from him to be able to grab a hold of Kirishima, or Kirishima being able to land enough hits to knock her out.

Bonus Question:

Oooooooooooooohhhh boy.

Honestly, this can go either. Hot take probably, but here’s how I see it.

Todoroki at the time is still trying to reject and shun wanting to use his father’s side, so I definitely don’t see him using his flames in the fight, which gives Dark Shadow an advantage. It comes down to if Dark Shadow is quicker then Todoroki, because Todoroki can get around on his ice very fluidly.

Todoroki *could* also attempt to trap Tokoyami like he did with Sero during their fight and have him encapsulated in ice. But, we also need to remember all of 1-A was able to anticipate his ice move and not at least get caught in it. Tokoyami was one of them and I’m positive he would anticipate that as well. And even if Tokoyami is trapped, he’s not the one doing the real fighting. Dark Shadow is. So unless Tokoyami and Dark Shadow *both* get caught in it, Dark Shadow blitzing him and forcing him out of bounds is very probable.

This is a very tough match up to determine who the winner is honestly.

Thanks again for the ask!

As anti BKDK & anti Bakugou, can I ask why you hate him and Aizawa so much (at least I get it why you dislike Endevour)? Yes, Bakugou was bad at first, but he grew as character. Now, he is one of the best anime/manga character ever. When he 'died', many anti Bakugou overjoyed, but he came back alive !!

Why do you thing Bakugou as a character is so popular (beloved by non shippers and shippers)?

Are you anti BKDK because you dislike mlm shipping?

Thanks for your blog, I don't like to say rude things just because of fandom and fictional characters, but can I ask why you dislike Bakugou so much when he changed so much? Like, his devotion to Midoriya is real and he truly is a hero.

(Hope you don't mind to have follower who is Bakugou fan and BKDK shipper)

I have made a lot of posts about why I hate Bakugou.

It's not because he's a bad person. A bad person can be a great character. Shigaraki is one of my favorite characters in the series. I have a lot of issues with Bakugou as a character, not a person.

A big issue is probably how everyone treats him, especially in comparison to other characters. Bakugou can be as callous and spiteful as he wants and so many characters trip over themselves to praise him. Aizawa (I'll get to him in a second), All Might, and the other teachers don't see fit to correct his behavior, even when he's been violent towards his other classmates (mainly Izuku). Worse, Aizawa outright favors him.

Bakugou punched Izuku during the Final Exam and refused to cooperate. What did Aizawa do? Nothing. He passed him even though he failed Sero, who sacrificed himself to save Mineta. He doesn't even scold Bakugou for this even though he scolded Uraraka and Aoyama during the Training Camps.

Monoma isn't even half as bad as Bakugou. At worst, he gives 1A a hard time occasionally. But 1A absolutely can't stand him. Bakugou's friends- Kirishima and Sero- are Monoma's biggest critics.

Then there's how the narrative bends over backwards to make Bakugou seem like a better person. And why I hate Aizawa is that most of the time it's through him. Bakugou is accused of going too hard on Uraraka? Aizawa scolds the crowd to blatantly tell us- the viewers- that they don't know what they're talking about and that Bakugou respects Uraraka as an opponent.

Which isn't even true. He a) blatantly told Uraraka that she should have given up and b) assumed her plan was Izuku's doing. Aizawa was dead wrong, even though he's supposed to be a way to tell us what's going on. And this isn't even the only time he does this, he also defended Bakugou's behavior to the journalists and said that he would work on improving it.

Except he didn't. But this was a way to, once again, shut down criticism of Bakugou. Everyone who criticizes Bakugou even a little is antagonized to make him look better than he is: the pros at the Sports Festival, the journalists, Monoma, etc.

Izuku is also forced to be a tool to make Bakugou's development look better. He was forced to validate Bakugou's insecurities during Deku vs Kacchan Part 1. We're told, by All Might, that Izuku doesn't hold Bakugou's behavior against him. Even Bakugou's apology was less about Izuku- his victim- and more about making Bakugou look better. Izuku, as one of my favorite characters, deserves better than that.

Also, to me, Bakugou's "change" isn't all that significant. He still does most of the things he did before, it was just changed to be more comedic. Bakugou didn't actually change, he got a character shift to make it easier to redeem him. How can I say he's changed when none of the other characters hold him accountable?

I hate Aizawa because he's a bad teacher and a hypocrite. He's constantly scolding and berating Izuku, but says almost nothing to Bakugou. Accuses All Might of favoritism when he had a whole protege on the side he was trying to get into the hero course. Constantly berates his class for their faults while doing nothing to make them better.

Again, during the Final Exam, he had five other students who failed. Students he could have easily worked with prior to that exam. But he was fine bending over backwards to make sure Bakugou passed. He's a bad teacher that the series tries to make out to be better than he is.

Also, I do NOT hate mlm shipping. Zolu is one of my favorite ships ever. I hate yaoi shippers who feel the need to bash female characters for getting in the way of their ship (or being shipped with a male character in Katara's case). It's blatant misogyny, just because it's gay doesn't mean it's not prejudiced. Uraraka gets treated terribly by BakuDeku shippers, or she's shipped with Tsu or Toga, tucked away in a background sapphic ship where she can't interfere. That's just as bad as bashing her because it's using a sapphic ship as a tool to prop a gay ship.

I don't hate mlm shipping. I hate how some of my favorite characters are treated because of it. There's also an issue with it fetishizing gay men for straight women, but that's another issue entirely.

My hatred for BakuDeku is actually separate from this. It's a ship built off of abuse. The abuse even persists in their platonic relationship, it would absolutely maintain in a romantic relationship. BakuDeku benefits Bakugou and only Bakugou, not Izuku.

I think Bakugou is so well liked because his gimmick of tough and edgy entices a lot of people. He had a lot of fans before he started to get redeemed. And now with his "great" character development, it justifies a lot of people's love for him.

What's your opinion on Izuku getting One for All? Like, I understand that part of the fandom doesn't like it, since he's quirkless, but for my point of view, I don't care about that, besides, I think One for All is important for Izuku, since he's the protagonist and I think it would be meaningless if he didn't receive the quirk, of course Izuku should continue to remember his past and such, but I think it's kind of silly for the fandom to criticize this, to be honest there are things that I think the fandom exaggerates in question of criticism. Plus I always imagine Izuku being Superman or SpiderMan.

I can see both sides of the argument.

I absolutely understand why some of the fandom takes issue with him being told, "You can only achieve your dream if you modify your body." It's hard not to label that as ableist. Horikoshi's execution of this certainly doesn't help.

But I think the problem at its root- that people who make this argument don't understand- is that heroism in MHA is a profession. It's easy to point out characters like Batman and Iron-Man because they've worked around not having powers. However, forgoing the fact that both are filthy rich, they aren't limited by regulations and standards (well, sometimes in Iron-Man's case, but Batman is a vigilante who literally works outside the law).

Heroes in MHA are bound by regulations, they adhere to a system. While there might not outright be a law that prohibits quirkless people from being heroes, that system is created to bolster power above all else. They didn't even let quirkless people into UA at all until Izuku was in middle school, not to mention the hero course.

So while I think Izuku could have been a capable hero without a quirk, it's a matter of the system not letting him become one. That's something no one- not All Might and especially not Inko- could have changed. The most Izuku could have become was an illegal vigilante. I feel like not enough people recognize that.

As for One For All, I actually like to compare Izuku to Captain America. The Super Soldier Serum simply enhanced what was already inside him. Good became great. Izuku wasn't just handed OFA, he earned it. So that someone good could become someone great.

The past users also had to choose whether to give him their quirks, which also reinforces that he had to earn their respect. He had to prove he was worthy of their power.

Earning One For All has always been about his heart, not his body

Ochako: What does it really mean?

Toko: what does what mean?

Ochako: revelry in the dark

Toko: …

Toko: It is a promise. You and everyone else are creature of light. You dance in the day with nary a care while we wait amongst the shadows for the night. There is a divide between us. Our power comes from the dark, it is where we thrive, the time when we are strong, when we are truly alive. That is Revelry in the Dark.

Ochako: …It sounds lonely

Toko: It is

hi im currently planning out a mha fic (that could now kind of evolved a fix-it fic of sorts) and right now im debating whether or not i want uraraka or bakugou to win during their match during the sports festival. and i like your opinions on uraraka, so my question to you is that do you think it would be ooc for uraraka at that point in the story to win against bakugou during the sports festival?

Well, first thank you, Anon! It’s been ages since given an ask, and thank you for liking my opinion on Uraraka!

Next, no, I personally don’t think it’s impossible or OOC for Uraraka to win.

What I believe would make it OOC is if she is able to keep fighting without any signs of fatigue from her quirk.

In this point of the story, they are still getting use to their powers, some more than others. And Bakugou himself has an inner monologue about how using their quirk too much can wear them out. And that was surprisingly introspective of him.

Now if only Horikoshi practiced what he preached, as Bakugou ends up being able to use his quirk easily and spamming it with no break, as Sero and Kirishima point out.

So, obviously, I am biased about wanting Uraraka to win, and I think it’s just small tweaks in the fight that can make her win. Like her throwing herself to the ground just as Bakugou is about to let loose the explosion that destroys her meteor attack, making Bakugou’s big explosion not as powerful as it was (because his gauntlets were supposed to help make them more powerful then when he doesn’t have them)and he still gets caught up by the meteor shower. Even having it to where Uraraka is just closer enough to where before Bakugou can wipe out her attack and she rushes him and uses her quirk to quickly shove him out and have him go out of bounds.

Or you can take all this, and still have Bakugou win, but the main thing to show from them on is that even he isn’t invincible overtime. At some point, his wrists cramp up to the point his explosions are barely as effected and he loses to someone else.

And the same needs to go to Uraraka. She will eventually get to the point her nausea affects her and she is unable to last longer as the fights. (If you are going to have Ochako go the same bracket as Bakugou did in canon, I think her fight against Tokoyami is where her streak runs out. DS is just too much of a counter for her quirk.) This can still prompt her and have her realize she needs to compensate by finding a way to fight without relying on her quirk so much, because she would feel her getting far was mainly luck, and she can’t solely rely on that anymore. And she goes to intern with Gunhead, just like canon.

Lastly, the reason I believe Ochako winning their match would be more beneficial from a storytelling perspective is that he has to come to terms with the fact he lost against a quirk that wasn’t initially offensive and powerful. He can either show he takes it on the chin, and accepts he lost to someone who has won fair and square, but he obviously doesn’t voice it out loud. Or he’s in denial and accuses Ochako of not being able to do anything with Deku’s help, causing a huge rift between the two, as well as the rest of the class as they hear how much of an ass he was against her.(It depends on how you’re wanting you have Bakugou come across in your story.)

Sorry if this was a lot more info then you originally intended, but I have studied this scene a lot because I found this fight to be bullcrap (again, because I am a fan with Ochako), and I just feel she was done dirty in this fight.

Hope your fic goes great and that I didn’t waste your time babbling!
