It's crazy how well Deku gets treated by fan artists given his behavior in the actual series, it's like he breached down through the pathetic floor and integer overflowed into people wanting to see him actually succeed
Compare it to something like DDD where 90% of fan content is Okarun getting cucked

I genuinely struggled to remember a time where it was confirmed there were genuine feelings on either of their part, beyond just general "she is cute" and "he is nice." I think this might speak to the idea that, given that there really isn't any romance in the series, this wasn't actual teasing, just acknowledging that two people who know each other might be attracted to each other. This is a story about teenagers; they tend to be attracted to their classmates. It doesn't mean they will all date each other.

I dropped the manga like in chapter 200 or somethig. There's an 8 year timeskip? How do ochaco and deku shippers feel about the fact that she might have had bfs and casual sex during the timeskip?
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>287301029
dude, stop speedwatching. Ochakus crush on Deku was CONSTANTLY mentioned. And Deku always was embarrassed talking to her, plus the last chapter, despite ending in just a pity handshake, confirmed he wanted more with her
>>
>>287306411
Even Peter Parker pushed back against Flash Thompson now and again. Deku doesn't need to have quite the chip Pete did but good lord. I know there's some virtue in being humble but there's too far a line too. Japan always over humbles. Even Ippo despite fighting in MULTIPLE boxing tournaments and beating as many strong people is still kind of a pud.
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>287307355
I'm not speedreading. I just don't think it comes up as often as people think. The vast majority of the story is about heroes and villains fighting, not who Deku might have a crush on. Ochako isn't even around that often. I really think people latched on to them as a majorly important part of the story and it just leads to disappointment when nothing in the story built up that importance.
>>
>>
>>
>>287307979
Not all of the time. And if you've been reading a story where hundreds of chapters where the characters might have crushes and they don't act on them, you have only yourself to blame if you read hundreds more chapters and expect that to change.
>>
>>287307967
It seems like you're also speedreading these threads, because absolutely no one acts like it was a major part of the story on par with Shigaraki or AFO/OFA deal.
When OP said "400+ chapters of teasin", he didn't mean that in every single chapter of those 400 did they tease the relationship, but that during those 400 chapters they teased it.
>>
>>
>>287307993
This isn't really true. There definitely is a sentiment that "if it was in the story, it was important" that posters like >>287307943
express. Not all, but some definitely feel this way. It's a valid response to say that no, something being in the story doesn't mean it will receive further development, especially when the story over and over is not developing it and you are for some reason expecting it to happen.

The issue is that Horikoshi has negative balls. He couldn't confirm anything in fear of risking the ire of fujoshits, which meant losing his cashcows. It's pathetic actually, even Kishimoto and Kubo showed their MCs marrying and reproducing.

>>287314380
My dude the sales came from the volume bonuses not izuocha, especially since japan doesn't have the leaker culture we do so the content of 431 was a surprise to them. The sales plummeted once those ran out and the reaction to 431 was so severe they've been retconning it like crazy since then. And the reaction wasn't just from bakudekus it was also from fans pissed that it only focused on ochako, which is one of the reasons why both the sales of her merch and dekus went down after the volumes release. I mean think about it, if izuocha was the reason it sold so well why haven't they capitalized on that even after all this time?

Romance is an intrinsic part of a social life. If your story is not going to focus on it in any meaningful capacity, don't fucking tease characters together throughout a series without some sort of payoff. It doesn't have to be the focus, god knows young boys probably don't care too much about that, but don't throw in the waifus and the eyecandy and the girl next door, throw sexual or romantic tension in every possible opportunity, then peter out. There's a reason why some of the stronger shonen endings that aren't just bombastic action in non-romantic series, tend to resolve the romance strongly.
>>

>>287319090
The Deku problem is that he's given the keys to the proverbial kingdom but never really does anything interesting with it. He grows to be more self-confident, but he was doing absurd self-sacrificial acts since the very start of the series, so it's not like he actually grew as a character. He gets abused by Bakugo and then targeted in a rivalry and it peters out to nothing. They try to make him feel like a personal foil to Shigaraki and it comes off as vapid because Deku wants to save the guy without actually understanding where he comes from. And as a combat protag, he just gets handed new things on a silver platter in a way that simply isn't really satisfying for developments.
Is he the worst shonen protag ever? Fuck no. But for all of his conviction and all of his heart, he's just not really interesting either. I'd take Tanjiro over the fucker and I didn't care much for him either.
>>
>>287319547
I never understood why they kept trying to force this parallel between Deku and Shigaraki when I couldn't see any similarities between them.
Deku literally never had anything bad happen to him his entire life, he had a safe secure loving upbringing and wanted for nothing except superpowers, which he got the moment he met his idol and got to take his powers.
Like really the only way that they were foils for each other was in that Deku's life was literally perfect in every conceivable way and Shigaraki's life was the absolute worst it could have possibly been.
Which honestly makes watching Deku beat the shit out of him the opposite of cathartic.

I feel like they really lost track of what it means to be an underdog for Deku. There's just a lot that really chaffs me with his character. Both as an anime fan and a super hero fan. He's just too passive and timid and doesn't really earn or feel responsible. He gets the strongest power and gets to go the best class in the best school. That's too much. He just doesn't really exemplify any good qualities. He's supposed to be clever but the show doesn't show it. As a comparison I recently started up Kaiju 8 and despite getting kaiju powers the MC tries to earn his place without them, that shows character. He sucks without them but he showed how much he knows about monsters through practical tangible examples. He passes his test by the skin of his teeth and he's only made a cadet rather than an officer. And there's also suspicious plot reasons his boss wants to keep an eye on him. If this was Deku he'd somehow manage to fail upwards because of hereto unforeseen rule just to make him win despite not really winning. I know people like to use Black Clover as a meme but for all that shows faults it did put Asta at the bottom.
>>
>>287320174
It genuinely would've been more interesting if they went with the original idea of Deku being Quirkless and relying on gadgets as his primary gimmick. A normie who catches the eye of the greatest hero and gets the tutelage the world would deny him normally, but every step of the way he basically has to fight like someone on disability to earn his place there. But, knowing how it already turned out, he probably would've been given the supersuit shit from almost the beginning of the series and made things indistinguishable anyway.

If you look at the sort of Korean and Chinese slop that gets big, that's exactly what people want sadly
Fucking Solo Leveling got AOTY over so many better nominees and it's the most shameless power fantasy slop ever
>>
>>
>>287320253
He doesn't even have to be quirkless. Change ONE small thing. One for All is NOT given to him. Make it be an accident. His fuck up trying to save Bakugo from the slime causes him to inherit it unwillingly. He is now forced to deal with a responsibility he didn't actually understand. He know has to face the truth that being a super hero isn't the ideal he wanted it to be. There is a reason if a super hero doesn't have powers at birth it's caused because of an accident. Even the ones who get them at birth have to consider the power and responsibility.
>>

>>287320371
That's what I'm saying, MHA would've been more interesting and better written if Deku wasn't handed everything, but people WANT to be handed everything and want to watch slop with blatant power fantasies

>>287320346
Well, we could tweak things, ideas, etc all day long, but I feel like the spirit of the underdog was simply never in the cards to begin with. Like how the story makes such a big deal about Midoriya being ostracized by his peers in school because no powers, but he gets OfA and then every single character after that who isn't in on the know treat him as any other kid. Like, it was gonna be traditional shonen slopified no matter what because Hori is a shit writer.
>>
>>287320428
It never even felt like he was ostracized all that much. Everyone said he could do pretty much anything else he wanted. It's not like he was a pariah. He was picked on because he was an annoying little tagalong. You'd think there'd be more potential for there to people trying to take advantage of him. Maybe make him have to really reflect on who his friends really are. You ever see that Disney movie Sky High? Super hero school. Kid has no powers gets stuck with sidekicks with lame powers. Suddenly gets powers and now all the COOL kids want to be around him and he goes through an arc. Like a story.

It's a cautionary tale for the target audience. You gotta grow some semblance of testicles and stop being a gangly pussy or you'll become a cuck in all the aspects that matter.

Because saying that two characters like each other is no guarantee that anything further will happen. It wasn't teased, your expectations just weren't met. And that's okay, but if you decide that you want something to happen and then it doesn't happen, only you are to blame for setting that expectation.

You mean the human who has committed mass murder, kidnapping, and biological attacks on the population? Let me tell you something: A demon isn't more dangerous than a guy with superpowers.
And so what if Tanjiro died young? He accomplished far more than Deku could ever do; even when crime rates are low, thus heroes have more free time, it took this bitch a decade to muster the courage to invite her out, and all he got was a handshake.
>>287319380

Well see this is a big part of the problem. He was so dead set on getting into UA and ONLY UA that he didn't even try. Are there not less prestigious hero schools? Is there not some community class? You know this sort of falls into the whole SLOBS VS SNOBS formula. You have the big fancy schmancy money school and then you get the more blue collar one across the lake and all the kids people didn't think much of pull together to win the big rally. Oh wait that might lead to an actual conflict.

His biggest appeal is that, despite all the humiliation he receives and being made fun of, he still latches onto Bakugo; he was mad to be sexually bullied.

Well, Hawks comes in a set with Endavour, who is pure homolust; you can go with twunk topping a dilf bodybuilder or a coach fucking his student with a bit of grooming, given that Hawks chose to be a hero because of Endavour.
Really, Izuku should have enrolled in the management course; he would have had better chances there. Becoming Bakugo's manager/wife.

Later in you make a sequel series and fridge the two of them so you can make their son the Ubermensch and poorly copy Jojo designs in a monthly manga.

>A demon isn't more dangerous than a guy with superpowers.
That's irrelevant when the moral framework is absolute in Tanjiro's show. Killing demons is like being a pest control and killing another human is an instant ticket to hell, regardless of motives.
>And so what if Tanjiro died young? He accomplished far more than Deku could ever do
I mean, Deku is a world-famous hero who works for the most prestigious school in the world and has both ad deals and frequent conference appearances. He's probably loaded too. Tanjiro beat Muzan, but he got crippled along the way and more than half of his friends dead, lifespan aside. The guy probably went back to living in poverty too. And it's not like the guy was rich in the first place. The Demon Slayer Corps are actually paid a small stipend for their work.

No, there isn't. If anything, the story points to Tanjiro literally becoming a charcoal seller again after the final battle since his friends and sister all goes back to living in his old house in the mountains. His original job was selling firewood door to door and barely making ends meet. Then he went on to become a pest control for peanuts (they get paid around 20,000 to 40,000 yen) then got handicapped and went back to being charcoal seller.
It makes more sense that the characters went back to being poorfags once their little group disbanded than them living like kings. But it makes logical sense for Deku to live as a king since the value of the yen decreased after the war and took several years to completely rebuild Japan and for the economy to return back to normal. Teacher is the most inflation-proof profession.

That's the cope bkdk fags used to discuss its sales also other MHA had bonuses and didn't get the same boost. The chapter was the reason why sales soared
>The sales plummeted once those ran out and the reaction to 431 was so severe they've been retconning it like crazy since then. And the reaction wasn't just from bakudekus it was also from fans pissed that it only focused on ochako, which is one of the reasons why both the sales of her merch and dekus went down after the volumes release.

>>
>>287340943
NTA, but your picrel actually backs up his point more and you're stretching it a bit. Kiriya sent them a 'jaw-dropping amount of money' but Tanjiro kept trying to send it back, the family kept sending more, rinse and repeat and despite the money, Tanjiro and his friends still work. Their jobs are listed as charcoal burners and domestic workers. It also says he doesn't have the same stamina anymore due to injuries, so yeah, guy is handicapped.
>He and Nezuko are set for life.
That part is implied but not strictly proven, though. The panel says a lot of money, but it never states the exact amount. Doesn't even say it's infinite wealth or that Tanjiro stopped working because he was rich. In fact, the scene says the opposite. Tanjiro keeps working because that's just who he is. Dude helped defeat Muzan, then afterward he's back home washing dishes and selling charcoal again.

SERIAL KILLERS AND MASS MURDERERS. Religion wasn't a part of MHA; it's why people give shit to Batman about keeping Joker alive.
>Deku is a world-famous hero who works for the most prestigious school in the world
Neither of those things were accomplished by his own merit, he took the job because it was offered to him as compensation, not because he had the experience or the credentials for the job, nor because he had a legitimate interest in teaching; it was the only way he could be in the hero world.
And ONCE AGAIN, he received a gift, a powersuit that so conveniently replicated his powers.
>Anon, how do you expect him to be a hero without powers?
Hawks grabbed a fucking sword and kept fighting. This lazy bitch couldn't even think of that.
Tanjiro has one thing that Deku could never have: The admiration and respect from the target audience. Deku's popularity is only with women because they see him as adorable, and with gay men, who see him for what he truly is, breeadable and submissive.

I never said he stops working, I said he isnt forced to wage slave. He is far from poor and chooses to continue selling charcoal to keep busy not because he needs to. He can stop whenever he feels like it. The amount is more than enough to live on as it is a jaw dropping amount where they would not be disadvantaged. His life is pretty comfy.
>>
>>287343722
It's reasonable to assume that Tanjiro probably has savings and he likely doesn’t need to worry about starvation, yeah. I think you're overstating what the panel proves, though.
>He can stop whenever he feels like it.
That's pure speculation. The manga never says how much money it actually was or whether it's enough for life without working. Plus 'jaw-dropping' is a vague description. For a rural Taisho villager, even a few years' income at once could be jaw-dropping.
The most likely scenario is before the story they were acpoor rural family and after the story, they're a financially stable rural household. Not rich, but no longer struggling.

>>
>>
>>
>>
>>287344350
That's again pure speculation on your part. There's nothing in the manga that says that Kiriya set up a lifelong financial support system and the Ubuyashiki guarantees Tanjiro's finances forever. What the panel actually confirms is much simpler
>Kiriya sent them a large amount of money
>Tanjiro tried to send it back
>Kiriya kept sending it back
That's it. Anything beyond that like permanent financial security is just you filling in gaps.
Plus, Tanjiro's character wouldn't accept long-term patronage anyway. He already tried to return the money and is extremely prideful about earning his living. Which is the entire point of his character and the ending encapsulated that with him and his friends living a normal civilian life. The ending clearly pushes self-sufficient ordinary life, not aristocratic patronage which is the antithesis of the Kamado family

I never said otherwise. "Not wage slaving to barely make ends meet but for the hell of it" is mostly fair in spirit, but "for the hell of it" makes it sound completely optional and carefree. Canon doesn't confirm the money is so abundant that Tanjiro could quit entirely with zero impact on their lifestyle and still live "pretty comfy" indefinitely. The story never quantifies the amount or says it covers all future needs forever. For a rural Taisho mountain family, even a large lump sum (or repeated gifts) could feel life-changing without equaling modern financial independence. That's my point.

I think what annoys me the most about this series and this character is how blatantly narcissistic and selfish it is. A hero should be someone who inspires you to be better to reach higher. MHA and Deku however target a very different kind of audience. A kind of audience that wants to be told that nothing is their fault and that if they just got the thing they needed they would be the best. It's not their fault. Life is unfair and they don't want to deal with it.

don't expect MHA fans to care about the 6th yugioh series. and also yugioh fans don't really like newer yugioh series for how long it's been running as year round toy ad that ignores the game's aging audience. do think it's unfair to act like it's worse than MHA given that vrains only ran 2 1/2 years vs MHA's full decade, and that the story of vrains only really covered one year with the characters at most. Honestly MHA's ending reinforces yugioh's ending with how much more drastically absurd it is in comparison with largely the same payout. but don't expect anyone to know that context in a random thread.

>>287299596
Japanese men are very reserved. Many just dont really understand romance. The author probably saw this as some kind of subversion of expectation so he didnt have to write anything concrete he might back pedal on later. That pretty much it. They just have no real idea what they are doing and they know if they fuck up the actual relationship it can tank their career. The way the author did this basically kept them safe while still implying some kind of thing in the future you can just headcanon. Manga authors getting death threats is most likely the core reason they dont just bite the bullet and do it even if its bad. I really dont know what people were expecting.

He'd probably backstab himself immediately. They all assume his personality and belief system, none acknowledging themselves subservient. What I'd want to know is
1. Why didn't Twice create hero doubles inside quirk-suppressing torture chambers to extract intel?
2. Why didn't Twice create hero doubles so AFO could steal their quirks?
I could tolerate the whole 'quirks are unique but doubles can use them somehow' bullshit but he canonically fucked himself up with his own doubles fighting over who the real one was.

Horikoshi doesn't care about death threats. He got tons when he posted art of Mirko in lighting that washed her out "coincidentally" soon after Mina's natural skin tone was shown in the anime. None of the retards screeching about whitewashing actually dropped the franchise, it was purely performative outrage. Unlike twittards posting kys in his replies, shipping is serious business that affects his and a bunch of other people's bottom line. Even his inoffensive and ambiguous epilogue caused more backlash than he or most people in the industry want to deal with.

The manga emphasized the didn't. Wracked by survivor's guilt from Himiko Toga essentially committing suicide in front of her, she cast away any personal aspirations to focus 100% on her work as a hero. She buried anything that might even remotely be considered "selfish" deep down, to the point that she started hallucinating about Toga, who told her "Be selfish for once, you dumbass! I lived the way I wanted to, and I want you to do the same! Go after Midoriya!"
It was only after those 7 years did she start to consider her own happiness too, and other people had to force her into it.

I'm gonna be the one to say it since no one else will
I think him becoming a support inventor/another tony stark like everyone keeps saying is gay and a stupid fucking idea.
No nips or much of anyone else will want to read that, jump wouldn't say yes to that cause it doesn't fit in.
What MHA was and is now after ending? It was good enough.
Deku wasn't born with 8 different fucking races (bleach)
He wasn't supreme jesus incarnate (Naruto)
Did he fucking earn the power? Debatable up to you in your opinion, but at least he fucking trained to use it. What did all these other shonen protags do? Born for the shit or just trained for a few minutes and suddenly they became almost god like thank fuck that wasn't Deku and thank fuck he lost the power still becoming a teacher and a slight hero on the side despite it barely being needed much anymore.
He got 7 other quirks cool at least it was foreshadowed and fucking obvious with what OFA fucking was, he still lost it anyway so who cares? Any other Quirkless kid could get the same thing to if they were chosen at that moment.
I don't want a gay engineer building shit, you think any of these mangaka can fucking write that shit? God no and it wouldn't sell well anyway

The simple fact is that a lot of people just don't mesh with Deku's character. That's fine, everyone has different tastes.

It gets annoying when they invent or selectively ignore parts of the story to justify their dislike, like >>287380423.

See this is the thing. The fact that we CAN selectively ignore the bad stuff means there's at least some amount of good stuff to distract us. Nobody is saying things are perfect elsewhere but what they are is BETTER. Deku is quite literally a NOTHING of a character.

There's 10x more gay/sissy/femboy art of Deku than Shinji despite all the shit Shinji gets about being a basedboy and despite, unlike deku, having actual canon gay implications.
The difference is what kind of fanbase their story was made to appeal to.

he didn't have to become Tony Stark dummy. Just showing some initiative about his supposed dream is what people wanted. Deku being an active part in his ultimate outcome is what people wanted. Something like Deku drawing up suggestions that become gadgets sort of like he did in the series before OfA mastery that only he really understands due to his experiences with different quirks and situations which slowly build up on themselves is a fine idea and he has the connects and resources to make that happen. As is something similar already happens but he has literally zero agency and just gets handed shit. It's insanely unsatisfying from both a capeshit and shounen mc perspective. It's fucking insulting that he's supposed to be comparable to all might in spirit
>>
>>
>>287381672
Yeah people bring up Iron Man because the armor suit he gets at the end would have some meaning if HE made it. People would want him to be Batman because it would be something HE MADE. He would be the one showing agency in his own series. He starts the series sulking till someone gives him something and ends the series sulking till others give him something else.

>>287381672
For a manga that sometimes happens to be "realistic" there's absolutely nothing realistic about handing an experimental supersuit to a guy who's been out of the game for a long time, and seemingly hasn't done anything to demonstrate that he's still got it or improved himself. Even if Deku didn't participate in the suit's development, Hori could have shown that he's an effective teacher to his students, or that he's physically capable of keeping up with some students to prove that he's got what it takes to use the suit.

being a teacher for students already good enough to get into the best school in the country means fuckall. It's lazy as hell both in story and narrative-wise. If you go the teaching route getting to kids who need the encouragement, like how he never got, would be way more impactful and actually make a real difference which is why his random moment with plate kid is by far the best thing in that entire chapter
>>
>>287383038
Are you guys pretending to be retarded?
If he willingly decided that he'd rather be a teacher than a hero then that would be a reasonable conclusion to his story.
But that's not what happened. He explicitly became a teacher because he gave up on being a hero, then immediately goes back to hero work ONLY after being handed free superpowers again. He clearly never gave a shit about teaching as anything other than an easy way out of actually having to put effort in.

I won't deny that Goku doesn't have much in the personality department, but he did grow, not only as a fighter (not limited to his strength and attacks, his strategies as well), but also as a person, when he became a father. (Despite his performance) (If Toe had his way, Goku would have been a good father.)
Izuku didn't have that growth; he stayed the same, as a person and as a fighter, null. That's why he lost OFA.
And it's good to see that you accepted your defeat against Tanjiro, seeing that you didn't mention him.

Goku only got really bland a chunk of the way into Z and only really bad in super. In OG dragon ball he CHOSE to go on a quest. he CHOSE to train and seek out Master Roshi. He chose to give up his heirloom to save an innocent life. He choose to fight King Piccolo and the Red Ribbons. He chose to train and fight in the tournaments. Even if he had alien bullshit powers tossed on him it doesn't change the fact that he is still, fundamentally at his core, a proactive character and mover of his own story.

We can bitch up and down which girl was best for him but generally Pete did seek out romance. He very actively tried to woo his various love interests. Superhero comics are often called soap operas with more fights because relationship drama is such a core part. Deku frankly doesn't even feel like he even started to notice girls are built different yet.

My complaint with the ending is that Japan society is FIXED. Somehow.
Despite the war's destruction should have birthed mad poverty, crashed economy, people turning villains. It suddenly doesn't and Japan is automatically better in 8 Years time.
Hero system HAS NOT CHANGED. They still do ranking and popularity polls. The number of Villains have dropped because All For One is dead and every major villain organization in Japan is arrested or dead, or in hiding because Japan is ruled by Heroes leading to Heroes having enough free time to send 20 of them to stop a simple carjacking police can handle.
There's not future interest in the world because everything has been solved OFF SCREEN. Which is terrible. You can have a happy ending without making the world bland or not changing anything.
100K People JOINED THE META LIBERATION ARMY and Collapsed the government OVER Quirk Licenses. And Japan and HPSC did nothing to change this, you still have to act Quirkless in public.
Additional rant: Zero worldbuilding with no change in culture or how quirk impacted sports, or music, or militaries, or anything. It's literally just 201X Japan except it's implied 80% of people have a power.

Did the anime not cover Ochako's quirk counseling? The manga says it's the most critical change of the new era, which gives kids the opportunity to express themselves and their quirks in a way that adults will try to understand, which helps resolve family issues and feelings of being cast out or left behind. Ochako modeled it on Toga and Shigaraki's backstories; Toga wasn't malevolent as a kid, but expressed affected in an unusual (and destructive) way, and because nobody tried to understand her and instead cast her out, she wound up falling into the role of villain, and went all-in on that role until she met someone who DID understand her, where she devoted everything she had to saving that person, even at the price of her life. Meanwhile Shigaraki wanted help after his family died in an accident, but found no one until All For One took him in, and twisted him into becoming a villain.
If there was an adult who could understand Toga, she might've been coached into finding a way to live in harmony with others, or to use her quirk for something good, like as a blood donor. And if someone had helped Shigaraki he might not have fallen and become the world's worst supervillain. So the reason there's less villains around is because those outcast people who would've fallen between the cracks are caught instead, and able to exist in society somewhere.

>Did the anime not cover Ochako's quirk counseling?
as much as the manga, as in "Yeah we did have quirk counseling, it was mentioned a bunch of times...but apparently it wasn't good enough? So Ochako improved it offscreen...somehow"
>Toga
was insane, her quirk made her insane. Just because parents told you to not smile creepy and talk about drinking blood, doesn't make someone not care about consent anymore. Only psychopaths don't care what another person thinks, and she is like that. Until the very very very end where she gave Ochaku her blood, it was alwasy about "me me me" with Toga. She claimed she loved people, but she never cared for anyone but herself.
>>
>>287390762
There are two types of quirk disorder:
1) No quirk instincts. It is a typical symptom of AfO/OfA-transferred quirks. From naturals Eri is another example.
2) Quirk instincts that are too strong. Toga was more cat than human.
>>
>>
>>287390868
On the second thought Eri's case is less about instincts and more about Quirk itself behaving abnormal. Most quirks intentionally start weak, to not let user hurt him/herself or others. Many functions are locked for whole life, because they're too dangerous, and unlocked only when the alternative is certain death (Quirk Awakening). Hers started at the full power. I don't think she could undergo Quirk Awakening because hers was "fully awake" from the day one.
>>
>>287390762
>was insane, her quirk made her insane.
This is the failure to understand that I mean. She wasn't insane, at no point is she ever disconnected from reality. She just didn't understand conventions because her way of thinking, induced by her quirk's behavior, was different than normal. She joined the League of Villains to have an easier life. She befriended Twice, who was similar to her, a guy who society didn't or couldn't help and just cast out instead. When Twice was killed she took revenge for him.
And she refused to embrace Ochako's olive branch because she thought Ochako was being performative; an insincere hand extended that would regardless result in Toga's arrest and death. It was only after Ochako showed that even at the brink of death she was still willing to extend that olive branch did Toga realize she was actually being sincere, and she finally found someone who actually understood her. Ochako was willing to give Toga blood donations in prison for the rest of her life, because that was a way to show Toga she cared that Toga would appreciate. And Toga admitted that if someone like Ochako found her earlier she might've learned to put her way of thinking in a positive spin, and have been able to live that easier life she wanted all along. And so Toga chose to go out saving the one person who truly understood her.
Ochako was determined to not let the same thing that happened to Toga happened to anyone else, hence her expanding the Quirk Counseling program.

>>
>>287391215
>Dude, that is literally "insane because of her quirk"
No, that's "quirky". You don't describe autists for not understanding social conventions. They have their own quirks. Despite Toga's weird conventions on love, she was still firmly attached to reality. And the provisional license exam shows she can get along with others too, she didn't kill Caimie despite kidnapping her and masquerading as her, and she played along with the ball game the hero applicants played so she could goof off with Midoriya some more before going home.
>>
>>
>>287391482
The villain's quirk reflects all things away from him. It's automatic and always active. It also reflects light away from his eyes, so he needs special glasses to see. He wants to eliminate quirks from the world as a result of his experience.
Midoirya realized that because quirks are biological in nature he can't sustain his quirk forever, so he delivered a massive amount of powerful hits with One For All to overload his quirk and burn it out, so he could then capture the villain.

You can keep screaming about it forever it will never change the fact that it is CANON that Deku stopped trying to be a hero for years until he was handed a new superpower.

He literally still did small hero things, okay let me ask you this why did all might also stop being a hero after losing OFA? He didn't have a quirk either and didn't do anything too.

All Might was physically incapable of continuing hero work, he was in his 50s, his post-OFA body was incredibly frail and he kept literally puking blood. Midorya was a young man in his prime well above average athleticism and all his insticts and experience from his previous hero work.
And as said >>287383219 >>287383884 despite the story constantly TELLING us that being quirkless was a death sentence, they kept SHOWING us people who fought just fine without quirks.
There is literally no reason a quirkless Midorya couldn't become a hero at least on par with the guy with a fucking tail. The problem is he believes being a c-tier street hero is beneath him and isn't actually interested in hero work unless he thinks he has a shot at being number 1.
>>
>>287394158
NTA but if he's becoming a teacher without a quirk or suit, i don't think he can do hero stuff as easily on the side (especially since crime is literally going straight down). As far as anyone knows Crime seemed to be going far down at around graduation, and continued even more down when Uraraka improved the quirk counseling somehow.
>>
>>287394214
>All Might was physically incapable of continuing hero work, 50's, puking blood
Which was bullshit lie by him since he was still continuing to train his body, he was getting ready for whatever Shigaraki was about to do cause he knew death day was coming. He quit cause there was nothing else he could literally do on the field even if he wanted too.
>despite the story constantly TELLING us that being quirkless was a death sentence, they kept SHOWING us people who fought just fine without quirks.
Okay cool but where is it pointed out he just fucking stopped? >>287394218 here brought up a good point, he's becoming a teacher as well so he can't exactly go hero at the same time while teaching quirkless along with lowering crime rate. They fucking super suit at the epilogue for a car crash.
>There is literally no reason a quirkless Midorya couldn't become a hero at least on par with the guy with a fucking tail
Again read above for midoriya supposedly not being a hero, and to put him on par with the class thats trained hard getting in those ranks? We don't even know what his rank was before becoming #3 on the boards with the suit, and again a fucking teaching job. He could've been underground hero like aizawa for all we know atp.
>>

So i don't get the argument
>Deku can't do much hero/do any hero quirkless
>Becomes a teacher and inspire shit
>He gets a suit

You all hate the ending cause: Muh deku gave up!
I hate the ending cause: Quirks didn't cause the fucking apocalypse as the Quirk singularity suggested, Tsubasa who was deku and bakugos childhood friend was forgotten, no reaction to the doctor they knew at childhood and finally no dad for one.

Most manga are like this, they don't dare to do it.
When a manga becomes popular, the plit becomes "data driven". They look at what would the fans want, and what would alienate them.

That makes no fucking sense how though, cause now your telling me a doctor can just copy a quirk somehow and then put it into someone else THAT ALSO MAKES ALL FOR ONE USELESS! You can't fucking do that to quirks unless it's a quirk that fucking does just that!
Thats the fucking PLOT HOLE!
