Currently re-reading some bnha stuff and this still hits so bad:

This poor child is so worried for Deku because he knows that being a hero can get you killed, this is just hearbreaking.

Hawks to Endevour: I want you to be my dad! Toya, Natsuo & Shoto: No you don’t!

Anyone else think that Mr. Compress would be a better fit villain for Uraraka than Toga? From what we know he is the great-great-grandson of the peerless thief that stole money from wealthy pro heroes and gave it to civilians and that Atsuhiro himself follows his path of exposing the corruption and injustice of the pro heroes. By the way Oji Harima is still considered one of the worst crimials even though the guy is literally the Robin Hood of BNHA.

- Used to be a magician who was barely scraping along. Is what HK said about Mr. Compress’s past, that is so far (bnha 315) all we have of his past.

And considering his theatrical ways you’d think he was a good magician. 

My guess here would be that he wasn’t allowed to use his quirk (who he definitly has full control over, so no need to persume he’d be a threat to accidentally injure someone) so he was stuck doing card tricks we have in our world or something similar. That lead to him seeing pro heroes getting money for using their quirks, despite doing actual damage even (I mean Mount Lady in a big city, really?), while he had to find ways to live a basic live, because he wasn’t allowed to use his quirk for magic tricks to make a living. Which lead to him persuing his great-great-grandfathers ways of taking money, just more in a Jesse James way of stealing from the rich, but keeping for himself.

Which leads me back to Uraraka.

Her driving focus of becoming a pro hero is to help her family financially, to the point where she skips meals to save money. While her want to become a hero was already there for other reasons, this is her motivation: to keep her family financially secure, because pro heroes make good money.

Besides the fact that Uraraka’s backstory is an early sign of flaws within the hero society it would make her be a perfect antagonist for Atsuhiro Sako, who’s literal lineage is: pro heroes make too much money, while civilians are too poor to live.

On the other hand someone who has control issues with his quirks that lead to others being endangered like Tokoyami would be a better fit for Toga (also Hawks killed Twice, Tokoyami is Hawks student, would make for some amazing conflict).

This is really, really  good on a psychological take.

It is extremly common for abuse victims to:

1. still love their abusers, especially if they are blood related. Because of social expectencies children are often told to love their parents no matter what and they pick up on that, so even abused children often have love for their parents, that in no way deserve it. Besides the biological basis that babies need other humans or they die, and then bond to these humans. And little moments that give them hope that their parents love them back, tends to solitify that. And those little moments together with the abusive upbringing also leads to the believe that the abuse is justified (of course it’s not) and sometimes that can lead to overlap with the way they view other abuse victims. So Enji abusing Toya through training, still gave Toya feelings of love, because he interpreted that as love from his father, and wanted more of that training and repectively more love from him.

Wheras Fuyumi and Natuso don’t seem to realize they were abused as well, because they were mostly “just neglected”, unlike their brothers. Shoto only speaks about what Enji did to Rei, not himself either.

Dabi is the only sibling who outright told their father that he is to blame for the abuse their family suffered, no one else.

Big difference between Hakws and Best Jeanist, who are looking elsewhere for the culprit. And Enji trying to shift the blame onto his own abuse victims.

Keigo on the other probably interepreted the Endevour doll as a sign of love from his mother, leading to his idelazation for Endevour, without ever knowing him.

2. go back to similar abusers. You brain has a tendecy to go back to what it knows, even if that is a bad thing and that is extremly hard to overcome. And children who were abused have a high tendecy to not realize that they were abused (Fuymi, Natuso, Shoto are all examples of that) until they are adults, somtimes even way later in live. Mind you Keigo is only 23 and he has been in an unhealthy enviroment since he was born, he just swapped his parents for the hero commission.

Wich Endevour it is of course different. Because Hawks new Endevour the pro hero, but not Enji the father. So his idolization came as a child, meaning Hawks saw Endevour as you said: as am idol father figure, a hero come to rescue, but not the real person behind that idol.

And now that he hears about the real Enji two things happen: first of all, the human brain does not like contridicting information and Enji being a horrible abusive parent for over 20 years is extremly against the picture Hawks has of him. And second: this is as you said something Hawks probably wanted from his father: a change, to become a good parent and have the happy family he wanted.So he jumps to devend Enji as a person. Even though as a parent both Enji and Hawk’s father were horrible and neither of their sons was at fault for this.

I'm going to say a thing that can be seemed... a bit (read: very) controversial by some people. But. Do you think... that maybe. Just perhaps. Keigo, somewhere deep inside, hoped that his own abusive father will 'change'? (I mean, he clearly has some weird views concerning his parents, just remember how he apologised to his mother, even though she absolutely did NOT deserve any apologies) But, well, he didn't. And later he was caught by Endeavor, whom Keigo began to look up to and eventually came to see him as a father figure of sorts. But... now that he knows that Endeavor was also an abusive father himself, but who has 'changed', do you think that maybe that's why Hawks now supports him even more and refuses to critique him? Because now he's literally a dream-version of his own father? Or am I reaching too much into it? upd.: This also might be the reason he doubts Dabi's words so hard and can't see that 'the reason for Dabi's hatred' is standing right next to him. I feel like Hawks believes to some extent that it was his own fault his parents abused him (he's wrong, of course) and he was just a bad son, so admitting that Dabi's creation was entirely Endeavor's fault would mean for Hawks to accept that no, his parents didn't abused and neglected him because he did something wrong and deserved it, they abused and neglected him just because they were pieces of shit and he shouldn't be excusing them.

12 central traits of heroism featuring My Villain Academia

Psychologists have also identified the traits of heroes. Elaine Kinsella and her colleagues have identified 12 central traits of heroism, which consist of:

brave,

[Bravery is the ability to confront something painful or difficult or dangerous without any fear. It’s a quality, not a state of mind; it doesn’t need a cause to awaken it. Someone is brave—full stop.]

moral integrity,

[Integrity is the practice of being honest and showing a consistent and uncompromising adherence to strong moral and ethical principles and values.In ethics, integrity is regarded as the honesty and truthfulness or accuracy of one's actions.]

conviction,

[conviction (kənvɪkʃən ) Word forms: plural convictions 1. countable noun [usu N that] A conviction is a strong belief or opinion. ]

courageous,

[Courage, on the other hand, is the ability to confront something painful or difficult or dangerous despite any fear. It’s not a quality, but a choice; a person feels the fear or pain or danger, but chooses to persevere anyway. Unlike bravery, courage is driven by a cause; the courageous person believes that cause is worth standing up and fighting for, despite all the clear reasons not to. It takes a great effort, because what’s on the other end merits it. ]

self-sacrifice,

[sacrifice of oneself or one's interest for others or for a cause or ideal]

protecting,

[to keep someone or something safe from injury, damage, or loss]

Me right now after 316 leaks: wait for the offical translation, sometimes things change and don’t be upset before we get confirmation that this is really what was being said. This has happend before that the leaks weren’t properly translated.
