So after looking at the older episodes of MHA, specifically the final exam arc, I asked myself.

Why don’t we see Ectoplasm and Tokoyami interact more often? Hell, why don’t we see Tokoyami interning with Ectoplasm?

Think about it. Ectoplasm has much in common with Tokoyami that he can help him through and relate with. Both of them have identical work ethics and treat hero working and training very seriously. Both of them have a terrifying and stoic appearance that belies kind and noble hearts, especially towards their friends. And with their attire similar, Ectoplasm can teach Tokoyami how to defend himself with his own fighting style and possibly improve beyond in case Dark Shadow is unavailable for whatever reason.

Speaking of Dark Shadow, they both also have sentient quirks, so Ecto has a better understanding of what Tokoyami has to go through than most, granted his clones aren’t as rambunctious. Perhaps this could allows us a glimpse into why Ecto is so collected and strict? Like if his clones also copy his current mood, and he was enraged and violent, then there’s thirty to thirty-six extra foul mood clones to contend with. Also, maybe we could see what it’s like for sentient quirks. DS having an existential crisis and one of Ecto’s clones consoles him to the best of their abilities. (Or simply lend an ear)

As for interning, I feel that would have made more sense as well. And I kind of find the ‘bird bros’ thing a little one sided, seeing as how much of Tokoyami’s growth was essentially by himself, while Hawks was infiltrating the Meta Liberation Army. At least with Ecto, he would have had a teacher that was actively in his life to help and encourage him. Yes, Hawks helped Toko come up with Black Fallen Angel, but I feel Ectoplasm would have also helped come up with that move as well. After all, he helps students that have quirks that are nothing like his come up with special moves.

Also, (Spoilers)

You can’t tell me you don’t see the similarities.

Anyway, thanks for coming to myTedTalk.

Ectoplasm is a family of Juzo Honenuki.

It's going to be like this for me, and nobody's going to change my mind.

In short, but okay, but it's not that hard to think about.

As we already know Honenuki adapts very very easily to any situation even if it is the most stressful; Ectoplasm likes to create workouts in situations under pressure to see those capabilities. So, juzo is probably so qualified for this because Ectoplasm has already put situations like this to him before and is already able to think quickly for any occasion where the situation gets complicated.

Physically... Those teeth, that anatomy, okay, okay. The age of Ectoplasm is between 40 - 42 years old, Juzo is 16 years old then, practically he is old enough to be his father, of course but Ectoplasm had him between the ages of 25 - 26.

And THE QUIRK, this could be something combination type (like Shoto which is a combination of the Quirks of Enji and Rei); Ectoplasm is able to clone himself by a liquid, ectoplasm to be precise, but eye is something almost like a liquid and on the other hand Honenuki is able to soften things to a point where they can become liquids, then the mom would have something like a Quirk where her touch can harden/soften things for a certain period. (idk)

And Honenuki may have had his father's recommendation to enter U.A

Wanted to try giving my take on characters, so decided to start with one of my faves!

Tokoyami and Dark Shadow Headcannons

Will forewarn, these will be full of fluff hcs, no angst (nothing against it, I’m just not good at coming up with it :p) Also, this might be word vomit lengthy, so another sorry in advance!

First, Tokoyami!

Goth styles he favors in particular: casual, Victorian, medieval, vampire and steampunk

He is not fluent, but know a good amount of English. He figured learning a second language could be beneficial as a hero.

He attributes his desire to become a hero to The Hidden Arts Hero, Dark Crystal. During a low point in his life, he happened upon a video involving Dark Crystal and was shook. This was the first time he had seen a person with darkness powers that wasn’t a villain! After seeing more and more videos and an interview with him, Tokoyami decided that he would strive to be a hero as well. He would strive to be an inspiration to those who could either have more of an animal appearance than a lot of society or for people who were ‘blessed by the void’ (have dark powered quirks).

Before moving into the dorms, he lived with his father, who is a pilot. His father does love him and shows it, but he is away a lot of the time, so Tokoyami had to learn to be self-sufficient.

The skulls in his dorm were passed down by a relative that was a Wiccan. He learned all about them and tried to incorporate some of their beliefs.

Has a small hand-made shrine to honor the actual god Tsukoyomi in his dorm. After taking up the name, he made it and vowed to bring honor to the moon god. If he performed well today, he gives thanks for receiving his blessing. If not, he asks for forgiveness and hopes to improve. Only a few people know about this. (Shoji, Koda, Midoriya, Asui)

At a young age, being compared constantly to a tengu, rather than hate it, he learned about them, which also got him to be fascinated with mythical creatures. Now, Tokoyami is the ‘Deku’ of mythical creatures, even having his own notebook filled with facts and speculations about them. Only Midoriya knows this.

Of all the teachers, Tokoyami relates and has the best relationship with Ectoplasm. He’s not crazy about the subject Ectoplasm teaches, but they share a lot of beliefs in common. Not to mention the fact that despite his intimidating appearance, Tokoyami can see how much Ectoplasm cares about the students and his fellow teachers.

As villains, Iida and Tokoyami are formidable since they have both speed and power on their side. However, both of them tend to get so wrapped in the roles, they both come across as overdramatic. Nobody has the heart to tell them that because they always look forward to seeing the two of them unintentionally act so extra.

At least once a month, Tokoyami, Koda, Asui and Ibara from 1-B go on a nature walk. Others join from time to time, but it is primarily the four of them.

Tokoyami and Yaoyorozu are book buddies. With a majority of the class not really into books and literature, they were happy that they found someone they could sit and simply appreciate a good story with.

Tokoyami once came across Uraraka stargazing coming back from training with Hawks. What they both thought might be a one time experience slowly ended up being a personal thing between the two of them when there’s a full starry night or a full moon.

Despite his strict attitude towards him, he loves Dark Shadow like a brother.

Now, Dark Shadow HCs!

Any family moniker or title Tokoyami uses on a person( Father, Grandma, etc.), Dark Shadow calls them that too. No one seems to object to it.

Father passed the bird aspects on, as well as his quirk, which is turning the feathers on his arms into a shield. Thus, Dark Shadow acts manly as a shield for Tokoyami a lot of the time. While one of the few things he knows about Tokyo’s mother is she had a sentient shadow quirk. ( Think Dr. Facilier from Princess and the Frog)

Because of his obvious avian appearance, it was easy for people to forget he was a sentient quirk/spirit/being of darkness and not an animal. Thus, when students offer him bugs, bird seed or shiny objects, he’s completely confused. When Koda explains why they are doing it, he asks them to stop.

He only has one similar trait to birds. Ravens specifically. Given enough time, he can mimic anyone perfectly. Boy or girl, young adult or old adult, he can copy them perfectly. When he’s bored, he does this to confuse students and it amuses him to no end.

He also DOES like head pats.

Does. NOT. Like. Bakugou. AT ALL. Not only did he make Tokoyami and him look like chumps in the Sports Festival, he constantly screams and berates Tokoyami and the other classmates. Tokoyami tries to remain civil towards Bakugou when he can, but DS won’t give him the time of day unless it’s to berate him or to stand up for someone. Thinks he’s too arrogant and mean to be a hero.

Developed a crush soft spot for Uraraka after Sports Festival. Not only does she (in his opinion) give the best head pats out of everyone, she was the first to treat him like an equal individual. (Aside from Tokoyami)

While he loves ratting Tokoyami out when he’s not being forthright with his emotions, he’s steadfast loyal when it comes to super personal stuff.

Despite being a little shit to him sometimes, he loves Tokoyami like a brother.

That’s all I can think of now. Feel free to let me know if this is just fine or if it’s too lengthy and how to improve! I do wish to do more of these in the future! Thank you for taking the time to read my own thoughts!
