This has been on my mind for a bit. Does Lets Rewind Izuku ever meets/runs into his mom? like in a grocery store or at a school event? Would he be able to stay composed like with 1-A? And what about inko's reaction? Will she think he might be some sort of relative to her missing husband?
Mikumo isn't able to completely keep himself composed but doesn't cause a scene.
as for Inko she does remember Hisashi mentioning a younger brother that he had a falling out with and assumes she stumbled upon him.
I don’t think I’ll ever understand some fic writers need to demonize characters like Toshinori and Inko so that they can elevate Aizawa and Bakugo. Like is All-Might a bit dense at times? Yes, but he isn’t a vindictive bumbling idiot/asshole some make him out to be in their fics. And Inko is a bit overbearing, but she’s not abusive or neglectful. And it’s always the Quirkless!Midoriya fics that seem to treat those two in that manner.
Neither do I. I think it’s solely cause people see All Might criticized by the narrative while Shota is praised which makes them think this way. They see Inko fail once as a parent, a new one mind you, and they see her as abusive when she’s been nothing but supportive. People like the throw the “society made X person this way” excuse for characters like Katsuki when it applies to Inko and All Might more. All Might fought a battle where only his sheer power could’ve and based his answer off that experience. He wasn’t trying to be rude to Izuku, he was trying to stop Izuku from chasing a dream he felt would get him killed. It’s only when Izuku reminds him that one’s heart is what makes a hero that All Might remembers why he was given OFA in the first place. Meanwhile Inko lived in a world where quirks were valued. A world where flashy and powerful quirks thrived (let’s ignore the fact that most characters in MHA can be killed by a gun). She wanted to comfort her child but didn’t know how to, so she did a normal human thing and apologized. You ca. say she underestimated him, but she sure as hell loved him. Meanwhile Shota plays God with kids who’ve already proven themselves and is let off the hook while Katsuki gets to torture a boy without consequences.
The Hight difference between AFO and Inko is insane, and I am living for it. DFO be true Inko really said, "one of us is reaching the top shelve in this relationship, and it's not gonna be me", As a short girl I respect Inko got herself a tall man.
Damn they are like Hades and Persephone from lore Olympus when it comes to height difference.
Then you add Izuku into the mix and boy tiny family for big father, perhaps there hope for izuku yet.
The fact, that dad character doing the basic minimal or saying that he loves his wife and kids is all that it takes for fandom to call him "the best father of the year", in my opinion shows, that we have low standarts for fathers.
Meanwhile mom characters would get heat from fandoms for not being flawless, get villinized and get called "bad moms"
(again there's a difference between criticizing a character & calling out actual abusive behaviour from a parent character to just villinizing a mom who tries her best to be a good mom)
