Love Me Some Mutual Love And Support In My Ships Even If The Attempts Are Misguided - Tumblr Posts

Ok I just can’t stop thinking about this because this is the first time we’ve seen Shigaraki’s perspective on the spinaraki relationship.

Before it’s always been Spinner looking at Shigaraki and waxing something close to poetry about him, but now we have Shigaraki thinking about Spinner and acting on his friend’s (supposed) desires. Shigaraki said at the beginning of MVA that his allies “should get what they want in life”, and the first person he thinks of giving their wish to was Spinner. Spinner!

It reveals that the closeness between the two is mutual on both ends and not just one-sided from Spinner. I’m jumping around over this! I’m so glad we see Shigaraki outright acknowledge his connection and fondness for everyone’s favorite gamer boy!

Side note: I mentioned this in a couple reblogs, but the fact that Spinner told Shigaraki that he liked that warped horizon and wanted more means that Spinner felt close enough to express his wants/feelings relatively quickly since this must’ve happened before the surgery, so it’s nice to see that not only was Spinner openly gushing to Shigaraki but Shigaraki in turn listened and kept that in the back of his mind. It’s kind of like how he remembered Mr. Compress’s line about sushi, but this time he gave the inspiration of his thoughts/goals a shoutout so Izuku could know who he was willing to create that destroyed horizon for!
