Bnha Leaks - Tumblr Posts
I think people have talked at length about the fact that bnha ended up basically being super pro-cop and delivered nothing on its narrative critiquing hero society. but one thing I haven't seen commentary on yet is how bizarre the narrative on abuse is. bnha is a series where abusive father figures (e.g. endeavor, overhaul, shigaraki's father) and neglectful parents (e.g. toga's family) have been the origin for marginalization of children and, in the cases of the league, their eventual descent into actual crime and villainy. yet the single most prominent abusive father figure of the series (endeavor) got a redemption arc, while the second-most prominent abusive father (overhaul) got to survive. yet the children who suffered abuse (toga, shigaraki, touya) were not worthy of redemption nor even survival. it has very bleak implications on who gets a second chance in life and who doesn't. this is possibly the worst narrative on childhood abuse I have ever consumed btw lol
The worst part is that the majority of the hero society has learned absolutely nothing and they keep refusing to empathize (not sympathize) with the villains.
It takes an AFO to raise people like Overhaul, Dabi and Tomura— to turn vulnerable kids into villains. It takes an Endeavor. It takes Toga's parents or Twice's boss or the social inequality Mr. Compress and Magne and Spinner lived through. Even AFO was made by the circumstances. So yes, you can't avoid terrible things from happening. Yes, they all were wrong and dangerous and cruel.
But the problem is not that there's people with the potential to become like them out there. In fact, anyone can become like them any day now. The problem is that no one stopped the injustice they suffered because they didn't care at the time; they only cared when they started to become a real threat.
Like, Overhaul's boss playing moral high ground over Overhaul???? My dude, it was a Mafia!! What did he think would happen if he raised a kid in a mafia environment???
I'm not excusing Overhaul's actions, because they were his own. Yet you cannot possibly tell me that he was born like that.
If the solution of the hero society is to keep an eye on anyone who can become a new AFO/Tomura, so they can incarcerate them sooner or kill them maybe??? Yep, absolutely zero learning from the whole experience.
It's frustrating.
I might write a full post on this one day when I am better rested but here’s a preliminary thought: it’s interesting how sociable and normal Toga is when she’s with the League vs how she “devolves” into a yandere stereotype whenever she’s with the UA kids (both in the 247 leaks and her conversation with Uraraka during the war). I feel like there’s a huge difference between these two Togas and I’m curious to see if this is ever brought up

honestly, bnha was getting boring after the Paranormal Liberation War Arc. to the point where I was only in it for the fandom. That's until I see these two ♥
PUT THAT THING BACK WHERE IT CAME FROM OR SO HELP ME
R.I.P. Deku
That last meme is literally touya before he fakes his death. I’ve also noticed a pattern with all the villains. They were all neglected love in the way they needed it most.

So completely not shocking, we’re seeing some of Rei’s perspective on things. This is probably after the attack, baby Shouto being baby Shouto rn.
Then a timeskip! The ball, could be referencing the earlier scenes we saw a millennia ago…
Touya is spiraling, he talks about killing Shouto.
Ahaha, I was right. Sorry, anime, Touya’s hair is white.
But now…
He’s literally telling Natsuo while he sleeps about wanting to kill their brother.
Rei mentions she’s losing her son with……..results.
“My fire won’t go out” Touya honey…he literally cannot stop his desires.
Judging by the water, the location….Touya planned this all. His death was faked, and he knew it.
Probably the last time this boy ever cried.
I think we’re seeing Touya slip into who will be Dabi. He’s telling his dad he wants to be like him still. He’s springy, excited. Look at his lil feets! And then Endeavor sees that he’s still training, burning himself.
Pain, now with context. Probably bringing up his hair color like his dad did all those years ago.
Follows by Endeavor hitting/punching/attacking both Rei and Shouto. I begin to wonder how long this chapter is…although I’m not upset about the lengthy backstory from Rei and his children’s side.
This is before Shouto burned. Natsuo…Fuyumi…it’s obvious they would hear but…I like the flash to the “she was so fragile she could break” uh yeah buddy. You broke her.
They’re juxtaposing! They’re! Juxtaposing! Touya…crying with fire by his eyes. Wonder if THAT’S significant (bruh…have you seen Dabi’s eyes and the blood crying???).
But they’re talking about how Touya is their fault. They ignored every sign he gave of distress.
I lied, I’m pretty sure he faked his death here. Why?
Yeah? Yeah.
Oh boy…
This family is so fuckin destroyed, dude. Endeavor pushes it on Shouto, Rei…we see why she reacted. She only saw his left side, she saw Endeavor…she saw Touya, what he became. Rei couldn’t bring people over, they were scared of her family. Natsuo KNEW what was happening, and they ignored it. He lost his brother, his best friend.
Apparently, Deku appears? “Not in the way you think” what-
Oh…
But it’s brought up that he’s a good friend to Shouto. That he was saved from what Touya became.
Endeavor is like straight up sobbing now though. Shoutao is offering to help fix this. Acceptance?
We end with Jeanist and Hawks listening the entire time this has been happening.
So Tumblr will brick soon, my computer is running ass-slow, but lets thank BKIS2327 on twitter for the leaks this week and uh

But this feels like some bad fanfic shit. the official scans might have something different. idk dude this is kinda dookie.
