Regina: Introducing a new alignment- Chaotic lawful. I have a strict moral code but nobody can figure out what the hell it is.

Headcanon: L actually enjoyed matsuda's presence as a person more than most of the task force. L mentions that he is childish, and he is. Matsuda is also very childish (ex. "I feel like a secret agent going after kira!") And of all of them I feel like L is more connected to Matsuda. (Willing to call him stupid despite knowing there are cameras that he'd be able to see) they just give childish buddies. Matsuda is the silly childish one and L is the competitive childish one.

Painful she ra realization. In s1 ep11, promise, during catra's monologue of how adora wanted her to feel like she needed her, the reason catra believes this is bc of how she views people. Catra is extremely manipulative, and she constantly looks at how to weaken and keep people around her on her side. So she thinks that's why she relied on adora as a kid, bc she thinks adora wanted her to and she thinks that's how adora looks at people. Catra's view of others affected how she interpreted Adoras actions. But the thing is...the reason catra views people like this and adora acts like this is shadow weaver. Ouch.

I saw a really interesting mha take. (Not in a good way) The base message of it was 'bakugou telling midoriya to kill himself wasn't that big of a deal because he was 13 and 13 year olds don't understand those words have that effect'. Let's go over why this take defends bullying and actually in the end hurts bakugous character???

Most of my friends know I'm not a bakugou fan (esp early seasons) but even I can acknowledge he had a hell of a redemption. It took so damn long, and yk what? He's still a jack ass sometimes, but he's not a bully anymore. When bakugou bullied deku and told him to kill himself, he was 14 about to turn 15. How do we know this? Well! In Japan the school year starts in April! The entrance exam (which is ten months after the first episode) takes place in February. Soooo, first episode is probably early-mid April so bakugou is Abt to be 15 (April 20th). This makes Bakugou not a 13 year old (lol).

Even if he was 13, it doesn't defend his actions. Now, I've interacted with a lot of Middle schoolers, and not all of them are mean. The ones who are mean know what they are saying when they tell someone (seriously) to kill themselves. I myself was younger than the characters when I started watching MHA, and I immediately knew that was bullying. Don't use the BS of "13 (actually 14/15) year olds don't know better!" Because it makes teens that age seem stupid and honestly? It defends bullying.

Bakugou fucked up with his treatment of deku, his treatment of him was textbook bullying. And to defend that is wild. The person also in their take stated that deku recognized that what bakugou said was wrong but he understood how dangerous it was...so deku who is younger than Bakugou could understand but bakugou couldn't? Bakugous character growth is so appealing because it was a true transformation of a bully. It hurts me to watch bc it reminds me of people in my own life. It is disrespectful to the beautiful character/redemption arc to try to excuse the bullying, and it's disrespectful to victims of bullying similar to this.

I understand loving and defending a character, but you can acknowledge their wrongs while loving them. So while this person with this take obviously likes bakugou, they missed the point of him. He was a bully. He traumatized deku for life, and most likely? He can never 'fix' that, but he can regret it and grow and move on. That is who he is, so to take that away from him is to reduce him to just an entertaining jackass. Anyway, that's my rant on a take I heard! And there's more I could have said but it's already too long lol.(No disrespect or bad feelings to person who said the take)

As much as I love dad for one. It isn't realistic in canon, he was not at all a good father figure towards Shigaraki. We have no canon evidence of physical abuse but we for sure have evidence of neglect, emotional and mental abuse. Shigaraki was a severely traumatized child going through a really tough time. And by not getting shigaraki the help he needed, all for one neglected him emotionally for sure. And since he did this on purpose and infact encouraged Shigarakis self destructive and in fact harmful to others tendencies, that is emotional abuse. Plus there's the insane amount of brainwashing we see in shigaraki. He even admits himself in S1 that he doesn't actually care about right and wrong he just wanted to kill all might. Who btw was a scapegoat AFO used against shigaraki and was painted to be the cause of all the issues. That's a fr gaslighting stance, for shigarakis whole life after 5...therefore mental abuse. AFO is for sure a narcissistic abuser, although I love aus where he's not so horrible.
