Anti Bakugou - Tumblr Posts

So.

New chapter dropped.

And it was filled to the brim with BKDK bullshit.

MAYBE a bit of All Might and Izuku bonding time, but Bakugou had to make sure that he gets to invade that too.

Who fucking cares how the rest of his classmates feel about Midoriya after seeing him save the day? Especially Iida, Todoroki and Ochako? Pfft, those three specifically are losers!

Or the pros and acknowledging Izuku as the world’s greatest hero?

Or the civilians that Izuku saved and giving him gratitude?

Or Inko, and the fact she indeed is seeing her son alive and well after going up against the greatest threat in existence?

Just make sure the Bakugou stans are pandered, spoiled and kept satisfied, because only they fucking matter at this point.

Fuck me, this series is complete shit now.

Let me say, I'm the biggest hater I hate the way that you walk:

The way that you talk:

I hate the way that you dress:

A brick? Screw that, here’s a whole pile. Use as you see fit.

I don't need to, but I'll explain my Bakugou hate because I want to.

Long post. Beware

When I started reading the series I was the same age as the characters. Looking at my interests you can probably guess that I was bullied, but instead of getting all sad, I got angry at the people treating me poorly.

So as soon as Bakugou was introduced, I didn't like him. Seeing someone my age verbally threaten and physically attacking people without being punished just really put me in a bad mood whenever he showed up.

Then certain parts of the fandom got incredibly toxic, and suddenly the author is pandering to the worst of them

But the problem keeps getting worse. The entire world warps to kiss his ass. He got everything he wanted at every turn. He deserved nothing and got everything.

Immediately established as a long-term bully. His bullying is then retroactively justified by the world itself saying that Midoriya is worth less than Bakugou as a person.

Why did Aizawa, who was famous for expelling students, not so much as give Bakugou detention for trying to attack Midoriya on the first day of school?

Why didn't All Might punish him for using that gauntlet in the Battle Trials?

Despite all of his actions so far, just since being accepted into UA, the other students still want to be friends with him. They actively choose to spend time near him.

Why is it never mentioned how him(and Kirishima) attacking Kurogiri and getting in Thirteen's way is a large part of why the USJ played out how it did?

His speech at the Sports Festival

Everyone wanting to be on his team, but he doesn't know any of their names or quirks.

Trying to make an unconscious Todoroki fight back in the finals

Aizawa constantly excusing all of his behavior, circling back to my point about the world itself justifying Bakugou's shitty behavior

Attacking Midoriya in the Final Exam.

How did Sero fail his exam by being carried out but Bakugou passed?

At the Training Camp, he actively tried to go fight the villains that have openly stated were trying to capture him. Making himself an easy target and hindering the people trying to protect him

During the Rescue Operation he somehow managed to hold his own against the majority of the League of Villains on his own? Really?

He forced Midoriya to break curfew and just starts attacking him until Midoriya fights back. It's caught on camera and Midoriya somehow gets in the same amount of trouble?

And for some reason he gets let in on the secret of One for All after being such a monumental asshole since forever, despite the fact that even Inko doesn't know? Or literally anyone who would be, like, supportive of Midoriya?

He failed the Provisional License Exam, but don't worry there's a special make-up class just for the people that made it into the second half. Everyone who failed in the first half will have to wait for the next exam.

Oh wow, flawless victory in the Joint Training Arc by displaying teamwork out of thin fucking air that was really just him barking orders at the others.

For a while we just get his usual brand of egotistical asshole-ery and now being needlessly shoved into places where Midoriya's actual friends should be. Or even any of the other side characters. Horikoshi, give them some screen time

But then the war arc and the vigilante Deku arc all just get down on their knees to suck his dick so hard that his quirk evolves and his heart explodes. And I finally get a glimmer of hope for the series to finally stop shoving him down our throats, but no.

Edgeshot decides that this one kid is so important that he will sacrifice his own life to save Bakugou specifically and no one else is on his level of importance.

Going back a step; That apology was pure fucking lip service. Not a single goddamn thing changed in the way he acted afterward. He had a couple of "soft" moments when he wasn't actively screaming and cursing, but that's it.

And Horikoshi keeps fucking doing it.

Somehow each and every thing has to include Bakugou or be about how it's effecting Bakugou or has to mention Bakugou.

The majority of the (much more interesting) cast has been completely forgotten, and Midoriya's characterization got taken out back, given three rounds to the head, skinned, washed in bleach, and hung out to dry, but Oh Wow! BAKUGOU'S HERE!

I said it before and I'll say it again, I'd throw a brick at him.

These are only the broadest strokes of what happened too. If I reread the entire series I could write a massive in-depth character analysis, but that's too much even for me.

Not being able to understand another person who isn't hurting you is not an excuse for making their life a living hell for a decade. Bakugou would have been well within his rights to avoid Izuku if he was unnerved by him or their values just couldn't align. And if he just pushed Izuku down in the sandbox and told Izuku he couldn't play with them anymore, Bakugou would still be a little brat but nobody reasonable would be calling him abusive.

But that isn't what happened. Even from Bakugou's own words, he actively beat Izuku down again and again. Because he one-sidedly decided Izuku was looking down on him without ever speaking about it, he terrorized an already marginalized person. This isn't about whether Bakugou should have liked or gotten along with Izuku. It's about Bakugou believing he had the right to violently suppress the people around him that didn't fit into his narrative.

Bakugou clearly had deeply rooted insecurities that needed addressed that weren't handled by the people around him because in their society, physical strength is extrapolated to strength in all instances. But that in no way excuses the harm he committed towards others.

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!

Slight Spoilers for most recent chapter

BkDks before the last chapter: IzuOchas always make about their ship, and never worry about Ochako and the fact she is going through her trauma!

BkDks with 429, where Bakugou has only one panel with Izuku and only asks one question about his quirk and not about Izuku himself:

OH MY GOD THIS IS THE BEST LOVE STORY! THIS IS PEAK! TOTAL ENDGAME SHIP RIGHT HERE!

They also laugh at the fact that Bakugou only focused on finding out about Izuku’s quirk and completely ignore Ochako, as if it comes across as a Chad move and DOESN’T paint him as a selfish, uncaring asshole.

I am not going to miss a huge chunk of this fandom.

I need Bakugou stans to realise that it's not that I hate him as a person. It's that I hate him as a character.

A lot of my favourite characters are unrepentant assholes, or assholes who are set to or have already been redeemed. Vegeta from DBZ, Ouma Kokichi from DGR: V3, Dio from JoJo, Laxus from Fairy Tail, Greed from FMA: B, Bill from Gravity Falls, and the list that goes on.

If a character is a terrible person, that's fine by me. But if the author tries and fails to redeem them, yet still acts as though they are suddenly this amazing person, that's when I have an issue with it.

Bakugou was originally written to be a minor antagonist, and that would have been fine, if Horikoshi didn't suddenly go "I drew him crying so imma fix him".

Redemption is such a complex yet simple thing to do. So when you try to do it and fail spectacularly, um, yeah, I do not enjoy that character or your writing.

That is my main issue with Bakugou. I do not think he deserved any redemption, not because he's a bad person, but because there is nothing to convince me that he could change.

He gets one scene where he goes, "boohoo I lost and everyone is stronger than me" then cries, and that's supposed to be enough for him to become a better person? That is nowhere near enough.

There was no moment that made me believe he genuinely regretted and took accountability for the abuse he put Izuku through in middle school.

"He changed!" That's not my issue. I don't care that he's changed. I care that I don't believe in it. If there was a plausible reason as to why he changed, then I would be fine with it. Maybe I'd even enjoy him!

The fact that he's changed doesn't mean shit if it's not believable.

"That was in middle school!" Okay. This one pisses me off the most. That was a year pre-canon? Oh, wow, I guess that's completely fine! It's not as if characters are the way they are based on their past. Oh, Itachi killed the Uchiha clan before canon! Okay, maybe comparing a massacre to bullying is a bit unfair. Still, just because it happened a year ago, it doesn't mean it never happened. It doesn't mean that he's changed considerably.

"Izuku doesn't have any lasting damage and forgave him!" And? Just because your friend forgives their bully, it doesn't mean you have to forgive them. And, again, I do not believe Bakugou's apology was good in anyway. He was trash-talking Izuku, blaming All Might for Izuku's behaviour, and didn't accept any culpability for what he did to him. He didn't tell anyone else what he did to Izuku. Also, if Izuku really didn't have any lasting damage from the bullying, then why did Bakugou's apology make him calm down? If he didn't care about the bullying, then why is he so relieved by the apology? BECAUSE HE WAS AFFECTED.

"Bakugou was being abused!" ... NO HE WASN'T!! Mitsuki is not abusive. Yes, she hit him round the back of his head. After he threatened her. Anyone with Asian parents can tell you that her hit does not hurt. Not only is it somewhat normal in Asian families, but it also doesn't hurt. We have no evidence that she is abusive. Horikoshi knows how to set up abusive families, as seen with the Todorokis. This not that. Either way, even if she was, being abused doesn't mean it's okay to abuse others. You can hurt without hurting others.

"It's the school and teacher's fault!" No, it's not. Part of the fault lies with them enabling him, but Bakugou is already fifteen when the series starts. His mother clearly doesn't agree with his attitude. The school is only partially to blame. Bakugou should have learned by himself what is right and what is not. In fact, he clearly does know considering he doesn't want any of that stuff on his records in case U.A. rejects him.

Again. I don't care if he's a terrible person. I care that he's a terrible character.

So the next time someone says that I'm stuck in Season One, take a moment and think about what you're saying. Bad people in fiction are entertaining. Bad characters are not.

"bUt hE cHanGeD!!!" right??? 😂😂😂😂

Love the fact that the little pest will get cancelled! Why is this fucked up hero ranking still used in the first place??? I thought their society learned their lesson? Aparently not!

My second attempt at watching MHA. Now I see why people like this show! An interesting premise, Cool music, and best of all, colorful characters!

Sees Bakugou being a piece of shit. Sees how annoying, trope'y, and poorly developed he is who wastes screen time. Said screen time can be used for underdeveloped (and much better) character's. Sees how he's worshiped by the fandom as being the best character in all of anime despite giving off Sasuke vibes.

Me: ....Bruh I hate you so much. Why do people like your ass?

Kinda annoying that after all the trouble Bakugou causes for Class 1-A (charging at villains despite being told not to, being an ass to them, destroying their dorm rooms after losing a card game, etc) he slowly becomes well liked and called a "mood maker." Hell, after the Paranormal Liberation war arc, people are more worried about him then the literal main character...who was in a coma BTW!

Man...I can't stand his ass. I just wish that Midoriya resented him more and acknowledged him less as the series goes on, but alas, we are near the end and not a damn thing changed. :/

Yeets Bakugou to the moon.

The Bakugou Experence(TM)

Bakugou: *punches Izuku*

Izuku, starry eyed: "Woow, Bakugou, that was so cool!"

Kirashima: "What a manly punch!"

Eraserhead: *grumbles, but is secretly impressed by how good a punch it was, even though he wants to improve his form a bit*

Shigaraki: *nods* "I can see why you're the one closest to Deku."

All Might: "What good friends they are!"

Why do so many Bakugou x Consequences fics fucking balance on “I want to expel you, but Midoriya told us not to.” Like, bro, either write the fucking prompt or don’t, don’t be a coward about it. Irl, it wouldn’t fucking matter what Midoriya would want, Bakugou would get expelled for so much of the shit he’s pulled. In fact, any adult who sees a kid respond that poorly to their bully getting punished should be put in therapy, or have a note sent to their therapist 

I found these posts on Twitter. I don’t know who said this originally but...

...whoever you are,

YOU ARE MY HERO.

I think the least talked about reason why I dislike Bakudeku is because the idea that because Midoriya is a boy, he can’t feel hurt over how Bakugo treats him. Despite Bakugo’s abusive tendencies, and him constantly calling him “weak” and “worthless”, “useless Deku”, and physically abusing him their whole childhood, this is portrayed by fans as being cute, because it’s two boys, and seeing as Izuku is a boy, he can’t possibly be upset, hurting, or suffering in any way, despite the fact that the entire reason why he throws himself into battle, and constantly breaks himself to save others, is because he doesn’t want to be useless or worthless anymore, and how he never truly had friends before U.A. I wonder why he feels that way, I mean it’s not like he was constantly told he was useless, and isolated from his peers every other day from the time he was four by someone he considered his best friend at the time- oh wait…

If the paragraph above doesn’t make this clear enough for you, then let me ask you a simple question: If Midoriya was a girl, and Bakugo was still a boy, and treated female Midoriya like he does in canon, (using his quirk on her, destroying her notebooks, calling her worthless, constantly yelling at her and being angry when she receives praise from others, dragging her out of the dorms to fight after curfew, only wanting to atone now that she isn’t quirkless anymore, as if it was her fault he abused her his whole life, and still has yet to properly apologise and treat her better) would you still ship them? Would you like Bakugo? No you wouldn’t. You’d see Bakugo on the same level as M*neta, or En3@vour, and wouldn’t praise him for being a feminist. Bakudeku would be the one of the most hated ships in the fandom, and so many more people would be stating that “it pushes the narrative that abuse victims must forgive and love their abusers, even when they’ve done nothing to warrant it”, and how it would be romanticising toxic relationships, and how abuse is ok as long as the abuser is conventionally attractive.

So why should it be any different seeing that Izuku is a boy?

I did it you guys

@moshiguro @kaibaras-camera @calciumcryptid @elflynns-horde-of-stuff

It’s canon that K*tsuki and his gang bullied other kids and not just Izuku when they were younger but yall like to turn a blind eye on that and pretend that he never did anything wrong

The sheer fact that Bkg is invited to Todoroki’s house instead of Iida is undeniable proof that Horikoshi literally had to shoehorn some contrived “friendship” between them in order to make Bkg more empathetic seeming as a character- Like, the fucking writing is so bad at this point he’s pulling what the Fandom does and is resorting to plain making character development up where there is none- amazing

bkg: says two nice things after spending the whole story being self-centered, belittling people and beating them

fans: wow, so much development, he's a totally different person now

BNHA can go crash and burn i am Kemono Jihen and Kemono Jihen only now

 they just revealed the 2nd OFA Holder was a fucking 'distant ancestor' of Bakugou's, I'm gonna vom I literally got the urge to start chainsmoking again, this is how fucking bad that is
