BnHA...Rant...Sort of...

I was trying to wait until the series finished but I feel like adding two cents worth of salt right now.

I won’t say, BnHA is terrible, but it hasn’t been really all that great either. I still enjoy it and it’s still fun to have the show replay in the background while i’m doing something else when bored. It’s also fun to see people’s reactions to the show.

However, I can’t help but feel like the story has lost some of the mojo it had in the beginning. 

Again, I don’t claim to know or think I know better than Hori what he ultimately decides to do or how he wants to go about writing his own story.

But IMHO, it really feels like he wanted to have his cake and eat it too with the overall conflict in his story and it feels jarring if not very satisfying. We know this because even before I got into the series, this fandom seemed already split. 

I mean, fandom is going to fandom but the general criticisms (ones not salty that their fanon headcanons didn’t come true) I have seen is the handling of certain characters and story arcs. 

Which I have to agree with in some regard.

What I mean by ‘Have his cake and eat it too’

Horikoshi on one hand seems like he wants to tell a deep complex compelling story, at the same time, writing the typical battle shounen that isn’t meant to be that deep. 

And I think this is what frustrates people. I personally don’t mind if BnHA was ‘deep, dark complex, etc’ but I also don’t mind it being a run of the mill shounen either. It could have easily been both but I personally think the author fails to deliver on this honestly. 

IMHO, I think this is one of those moments where the author should have stuck to one and tried not to do so much. 

I say this because Hori introduces heavy topics, in the very beginning for our main protagonist’s origin story but then those issues are never brought up again, and if they are, they are treated as non issues (or comedic gags that if one can’t remove the bullying Izuku suffered under Bakugou, just comes off in bad taste). 

You can’t have it both ways. If Hori wanted the ‘rivalry’ between Izuku and Katsuki to be treated as your typical rivalry in every other shounen, he shouldn’t have even introduced their relationship the way he had. (Katsuki could have still been an asshole character/rival without the bullying). 

This is why on one hand: There’s people who don’t think the relationship between Katsuki and Izuku is all that serious, while you have people who thinks the opposite is true and are rightfully upset/frustrated that there’s no pay off to be had even now as far as current manga chapter 342. Because the author couldn’t be assed to stick to a writing conviction without waffling around with his own characters and arcs, despite him deciding along the way to change his mind. (There’s also the hot topic that because of his favoritism of Bakugou, the story falls weak on expanding on other characters that in all honesty, desperately needed the character development. But good well rounded character development can also go flat too when you already start out with a large cast of characters, it gets worse when an author starts to favor one or two characters outside of the main character, when the story has no reason for the ‘writer’s pet’ to even be present, this is even worse still when said character(s) are written to getaway with things that the narrative established they shouldn’t getaway with). 

This is the reason why I personally do not like any of the villains at all. 

Except for All For One, that fucker amuses me to no end and I think I only like him because Hori has not yet tried to woobify him like he did the rest. 

Hori introduces grey morality, which is fine. I like grey morality, I even enjoy characters, protagonists and villains alike when they’re showered in grey morality and are humans with flaws. 

The problem for me is again, Hori tries to throw in shades of grey but still writes in black and white.

In other words; He wants to have it both ways. You can’t tell me Hero society is corrupt and the villains might have a point, when you aren’t really showing me this is in fact true. While no society is not without its flaws. BnHA has only shown me:

A) Regardless of their reasons, regardless of things like quirk discrimination (especially when the author fails to address this as a societal problem/treats it as a non issue) Heroes are still shown to be inherently good and society doesn’t seem all that corrupt.

B) With the argument of maybe Stain’s reasons, your not showing me much of anything the LoV wants to do to change society. All I get from them is they want to destroy it because unfortunate tragic backstories. *shrugs* It’s rather weak.

‘Everyone has a sudden tragic backstory’ is not enough to get me invested in what Tomura and the LoV are doing. They had already annoyed me, (but when they were just shown to be villains who enjoyed being villains that was okay) but this need to make them all of a sudden sympathetic is jarring to me when I have yet to see anything from them in all of the 300+ plus chapters that would imply they can feel things like, remorse, guilt, empathy, or even compassion for anyone, outside of their little group. Or even the willingness to change for the better. (See, Gentle Criminal and La Brava)

They are not vigilantes, they aren’t ‘well intentioned extremists’ with moral ambiguity. So the eventual redemption/atonement this story is trying to force me to accept is not going to have a good pay off. It just seems wholly uncharacteristic to all of a sudden have Deku/the young heroes redeem the LoV, after all the destruction they caused and is shown to actually impact these characters. 

So, Like Gran Torino said: Fuck them kids. 

This is worse when you factor in, with the exception of Endeavor, (whose not a corrupt hero, he’s just a shitty father/husband but he’s damn good at his job, REGARDLESS OF HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT HIM) where is the corruption? And I’m going to stop you right here if you try to come at me about stuff that happens in the Vigilante manga. I should not have to go read a separate story (written by another person mind you with Hori’s blessing btw) that explains how corrupted Hero society really is (if it’s even brought up at all in that series).

The moral ambiguity of Hero society should have came up I’ll say fuck, if not season 1 at least with the later half of season two, especially when we had the Stain fight. This would have been a good time to start to introduce the HPSC as this corrupt gov agency which would have really shown that okay, maybe Stain isn’t some hypocritical raving lunatic that’s a cold blooded murderer, he has a point and maybe we can really say, the corruption of hero society led to him turning out the way he did.

We also should have gotten more ambiguous heroes to really balance out this whole moral conflict. 

Waiting this late in the story to try to make these things matter feels like weak writing. It’s not going to have as much as an impact as say the All For One vs All Might fight did for me. While I have confidence Hori will pull off memorable fight scenes for the final showdown (because he’s really great at that and I cannot wait to see what he does) unfortunately, the story’s end isn’t going to be as great as I think it could be or was meant to be (unless he does something to make me eat my fucking words and I will gladly eat my words) but as it’s looking now, I really doubt it. 

I have the same issue with the UA traitor subplot. I don’t have a problem it waited this late to be revealed. But it feels like a cheap ‘shock moment’ with no pay off. If this subplot was sprinkled throughout the story as something that’s serious, or even at one point had the students start questioning if there’s really a traitor. Only to come out with nothing, then I think this reveal would have been more impactful but that’s just me. 

In conclusion: BnHA is a story that might have started out being more than your typical shounen but in the end turn out to be a typical shounen to the surprise of no one and to the frustration of many. (unless BnHA was your first rodeo into anime/manga than I feel for you).

TL:DR version, if you’re not going to stick to your writing convictions to delve deeply into mature subject matters, when your focus is just writing a simple cool fighting action story about good vs evil, maybe...don’t delve too deeply into moral ambiguity and introducing mature subject matters in your story when you decide to not treat them with the nuance and maturity they rightfully deserve. (No matter how much you change your mind along the way in writing a story.)

That’s all I sayin. 

#mha critical #bnha critical #sort of a rant #sort of a criticism #this isn't exclusive to bnha #as I've seen this done #way too much in other series #Again simple good vs evil stories are fine #and if bnha wanted to be a simple story #about good vs evil #that is fine and i welcome it #however you can't have it both ways #you can't make a story good vs evil AND try to make it morally grey #when you fail to deliver on the morally grey and still write #the story as good vs evil #there's a reason; tell and don't show is a pet peeve of mines #and trying to shoehorn 'hero society' as corrupt so late near the end #while still not really showing me why the villains may have a point #is bad writing all around

BnHA 322...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Goddamn what a missed fucking opportunity this entire arc was.

Now that the ‘high emotional tension and drama has died down’ I guess we now move along to the final boss, huh Horikoshi?

And Noooo...making legitimately, scared, uncertain, and angry civilians who probably have had loved ones die in this war and were told apparently. that Izuku is the Big Bad’s real target and not wanting him at UA because he poses a threat to their safety suddenly bad people/soft targets for fans with blinders on to ridicule is just straight up, lazy, uninspiring, and frankly hamfisted writing. 

*Sighs*

You know at this point, I’m honestly just waiting for All For One to waltz up to UA for Izuku like it’s just another Tuesday for him next chapter.  While at the same time, making the scared citizens right about bringing Izuku there in the first place.

I’m not in the mood to share a really tl:dr post right now...I’ll wait to see what comes of this anticlimactic mess in 323. 

#bnha 322 #bnha critical #anti bakugou #i guess? #Izuku is never gonna catch a goddamn break #in his own story #we could have had #an emotional climax #with class 1-a vs class 1-a #you want high stakes and emotional drama? #have bakugou's years of bullying finally make izuku snap #in this moment #have half the class with bakugou the other with izuku #idc how it ended #but it could have ended with #everything honest and out in the open #but no #let's just have 'bad civilains turning izuku away' instead #because that's the kind of writing i'm looking for to end an arc that went nowhere #do i sound bitter? #maybe #but god once again is this a reminder not to write story arcs like this

[butterfly--empress]

So…About BnHA 320…

I am laughing and crying and crying and laughing…like a part of me wanted this and another part of me didn’t…Like I was sort of hoping they would try to talk to him first before trying to restrain him. And while I am glad they weren’t trying to outright attack him and they were trying to get to him was sweet in a way, it leaves me a bit….ehhh??? (It’s complicated) I feel like their good intentions are making things worse. But that remains to be seen…honestly expecting next chapter to end with Izuku being fully subdued and taken back to UA….making everything from the solo Deku arc to now quite anticlimactic…I want to be wrong but again, don’t hold your breath.

I mean I expected this, so not surprised…I still ride or die with Izuku even tho poor bby is taking some Ls

But is it really too much to ask for the plot to address the giant fucking elephant that is the affect Bakugou’s bullying has done to Midoriya??? Like, I need next chapter to re-open those can of worms and better now than AFO *coughsdaddycoughs* trying to use it to further manipulate Izuku, maybe to his side later??? I just cannot see things being suddenly okay after all that has happened up to this point before eventually going after All For One.

I know Mister Horikoshi is more self aware of his own story and characters than people give him credit for butttt…just because he is doesn’t guarantee he’s going to stay true to writing some characters as they should be. I’m not trying to say Bakugou is a creator’s pet but I am saying, when he’s present in the plot, one has to wait with baited breath in wondering if Bakugou will add to or subtract from the story…and that is not a good place to think about a character that is supposed to be so integral to the plot. It probably isn’t intentional but sometimes characters do feel ooc when it comes to dealing with Bakugou in the plot. (And I guess this is why I’m so…not peeved but just…ehh about certain character’s decision to go along with Bakugou’s idea. Surface level what all of them are doing makes sense but ehh???)

I’m not angry or disappointed and I’m sure a lot of others will do a way better job of going more in depth into this chapter; so I’m just gonna say this:

The next number of chapter(s) that deal with ‘Class 1-A vs Izuku’…better involve some goddamn angst and drama involving Bakugou admitting verbally to Izuku about his role in this boy having no self worth in himself. And possibly something triggering Izuku to unlock the 2nd’s quirk. There’s still Iida and Ochako who have been oddly absent from this chapter. Maybe more of class 1a might give their two cents….

Oh who am I fucking kidding, Horikoshi could still deliver all this and still somehow fuck it up to be so anticlimactic it hurts. (Because I am expecting the plot to do exactly this especially if we wind up getting any damn inkling of Bakugou bringing up the bullying)

Welp, I did say I was not going to hold my breath so I will continue to not expect anything as I have been doing thus far.

Blah, I’ll just like posts that explain this better than me.

I will just be sitting here anticipating canon divergent fix-it fics…because it seems like only Izuku stans have this boy’s back and have better ways to help Izuku with his trauma than canon…no shade to Horikoshi but….

[butterfly--empress]

Okay one more shitpost for today and then I’m washing my hands of Bakugou for now.

Bakugou: *Taunts and mocks Midoriya like usual, thinking this will just rile him up for a fight, like that’s going to help the situation.*

Me: *Looking at Bakugou unimpressed and eating popcorn* Okay…you know what they say, be careful what you wish for there Bakugou. Keep provoking Midoriya like that to bare his true feelings, with the state of mind he’s in and you gonna fuck around and find out…

So About BnHA…

Man! I don’t participate much on here but it sure has been an interesting popcorn eating time, lurking through the good, the bad, and the annoying posts in the spoiler chapter tags. For this week’s chapter, especially!

Not gonna rant (I save those for close friends on discord) 

I do notice that lines within this crazy ass fandom have been drawn, tears have been shed and righteous fury has been felt. And no matter wtf Mister Horikoshi has in stored for chapter 320, it’s going to be a make or break chapter for a lot of folks. I did try my best to keep this post Bakugou neutral grounds. I don’t think I’ve bashed nor favored the character just fyi.

But the most inconspicuous opinions can be taken too serious these days…

The Silly:

For chapter 320 onwards, I am and have ALWAYS BEEN 100% Team: The Legend, The Myth, The Champ, Izuku ‘Feral!Rabbit-Cryptid!’ Midoriya! Win or Lose, I ride or die with Midoriya, hands down! ON GOD!

While everybody yelling into the tumblr void over whose gonna win or lose.

I’m sitting here thinking about two things: A) Has no one thought that maybe some of Class 1-A might side with Deku? *coughsUraraka/Iida/Todorokicoughs* *coughsmaybeevenMineta/Asui/Yaoyorozu???coughs* *coughs maybe even a surprise Shinsou/class1-b reveal even though class 1-b don’t know deku that well* B) Did everyone forget in all the excitement that uhh my boi has yet to unlock the 2nd OFA user’s quirk???

I mean, I’m not saying if it does come down to a bawl of drama and angst, that Izuku’s gonna win.

But I am saying, if it does come down to a bawl of drama and angst, that Izuku’s gonna win…I regret nothing with this bet! If my boi loses we just gonna take that L but…ya know…*shrugs*…Baby, beat their Bakugou’s collective asses.

The Serious:

Personally, I honest to god really love this shounen series with all my heart. It is the anime that reignited my love for shounen after my fatigued of constant disappointment with two old shounen favorites. 

Now, having said all that: I truly have not had a serious issue with the writing choices made by Horikoshi. Yes, I have my…gripes…(it’s complicated) but considering what I got compared to the stuff I’ve watched/read in the past, it’s definitely better to me. Having read/watched a lot of anime/manga and shounen, (I haven’t watched them ALL, srsly after my great disappointment and real life I sort of had an anime dry spell if you must know. Watched some stuff here and there when I could/in the mood but not as frequent as I’ve done like yrs ago), I’ve come to learn to just…begrudgingly accept/expect certain; I suppose you can say, writing choices or ‘tropes’ that I can just easily ignore them, roll my eyes when I see them, and still enjoy whatever I’m invested in at the time. 

The only real frustrations I have is with a certain character. Yes, I mean Bakugou. I have come to tolerate him, I have come to begrudgingly like him, especially after a second rewatch of the series, I could see and accept that in a very typical shounen way, Bakugou did change, though very little, and it’s subtle and undeniably frustrating how it’s happening but it’s there. However, I do question Horikoshi’s writing choices when it comes to him at times. I see the character development, I know it’s there but….*sighs*

Now I’m one of these people who do believe that the creator of this universe, actually knows wtf he’s doing with his own story (even if rabid/hormonal younger fans loudly disagree but YMMV). One thing I’ve noticed, for the most part, he doesn’t just write/draw things for the hell of it, even if a certain plot or a certain character’s development takes a snail’s pace to get to the point. The conclusion of building up to arcs do have a pay off. (And I 100% understand that for some people, moving at a snail’s pace just don’t cut it. Everything cannot please everybody all of the time and that is FINE!)

Katsuki Bakugou…I know the crumbs and very subtle ways he’s changed have to lead somewhere and to something huge. When Bakugou admits to All Might he bullied Midoriya when they were kids, I had an ‘ah ha!’ Moment. The fact that a very prideful guy like Bakugou was finally starting to admit just that much, (even though, we the audience knows it runs way deeper than he’s admitting here) even in his frustrating roundabout way I like to think this is progress, is very in-character and cannot just be for the hell of it. It has to be leading up to something else other than Bakugou jumping in to take that hit for Deku during the war arc. There is unresolved tension still between Bakugou and Midoriya that is not going to just go away because they will it to.

Which brings us to Chapters 318 and especially 319. It’s the perfect set up for all the dirty skeletons to come out of the closet that both Bakugou and Midoriya have been avoiding/trying to pretend doesn’t exists between them, because it’s been a long time coming. The honest to god truth? This is actually how I always thought this confrontation will go, with a showdown that forces Midoriya into a corner where all those repressed negative feelings he’s bottled up inside is bound to come out; Because I Honestly think Izuku would take what Bakugou’s done to him to his grave if he had it, his way. (Boy can be very frustratingly stubborn when he wants to be).

It’s just, after saying all this, I don’t hold my breath that Horikoshi will take it there…The opportunity is there, I want it to go there, it NEEDS to go there! In order for both characters to come out for the better. But will Mister Horikoshi ‘DO THE THING?’

Remains to be seen. A little bit of me is hopeful, another part of me is resigning myself to feeling dissatisfied with what little we got for Bakugou’s character development and by proxy, Izuku’s getting stuck in limbo. I’m not kidding, Bakugou being a very contentious character within this fandom doesn’t just come from nowhere. But this post isn’t about me ranting into the void about Bakugou. (I don’t even think I can muster up the rage I felt the first time watching MHA blindly to rant to high hell about the bullshit Bakugou’s done now.)

I suppose I will just have to internally scream for 1,000 yrs over half baked character development if Horikoshi doesn’t do the FUCKING THING in giving a satisfying pay off to Katsuki and Midoriya’s history. I’ll just frustratingly chalk it up to old freaking shounen logic and just continue to enjoy the series because I’ve been here for Izuku Midoriya since ep 1 and I am not about to let Bakugou or Horikoshi’s unwillingness to do something with him derail that. And there’s always hoping that someone is writing some really good Bakugou gets actual Consequences fanfic out there because ooh boy…I like Bakugou but mofo can catch these hands…and I’m not even a fighter, but Bakugou…this lil shit does make you want to choke the hell out of him at times. 

I haven’t been this emotionally frustrated over an anime character since…maybe fucking Louise from Zero no Tsukaima and it takes a LOT to make me actually dislike characters, good or bad. 

All in All: Regardless of how the story goes from here on out, we are all about to lose our collective shits. No matter how you feel about which characters…

It’s about to go down!

I...

*sees anti’s and some ‘neutrals’ constantly making tl:dr posts in pro sessrin tags, like I KNEW they would. Just the absolute audacity to think these hot takes have any personal impact on my actual day to day life. Like the unbelievable gall to think I give a shit about some fictional chick yiffing a demon dog lord, like them not boinking and making a couple cute fictional kids is suddenly going to bring world peace.* 

I feel a great sense of Schadenfreude with SessRin being canon.

Listen, if there were real world issues that could be solved by NOT shipping SessRin, like say: having low gun crimes in certain US cities, than I might consider giving a shit.

But since it don’t, please excuse me while I continue to support the fictional hawt human chick yiffing it up with the demon dog lord, kaithxbai!

Ya’ll Alright?

Hey any SessRin shippers alright?

I know the constant bashing of our ship might have some of you really bummed out.

But take it from a fandom old, try not to let the self entitled cesspool get you down. I don’t know how many times I have to keep saying it but I will to keep making the point: Over the years, I have NEVER kowtowed or bowed down to internet peer pressure over fictional ships. 

So to any young people just now getting into Inuyasha, no matter how you got here: YOU DO NOT OWE ANYONE YOUR TIME, EXPLAINATION OR REASONS FOR WHAT APPEALS TO YOU OR NOT!

You know yourselves better than any anti anon with a preverbal stick up their asses! The best you can do for yourself is learn to not take any of the ‘puritans anger’ to heart.

Despite having a whole tag to share and vent how much they do not like our ship, they are gonna flood pro sessrin tags ANYWAY to get a rise out of you. Do not give them the satisfaction of engaging! Just fucking block them, srsly, my timeline has become so much better because of it. 

Why? Because I don’t have time to waste on energy vampires who want to bring me down. I am beyond caring about what any anti has to say or their feelings and thoughts about ships they hate because half the time these people are so hypocritical.

By making these TL:DR posts; all you are doing is giving them the undeserved satisfaction of filling their heads with a sense of superiority that they called you out for being a horrible human being. 

Srsly, don’t waste any of your own precious time and energy engaging with people they can’t think of anything new to bitch about. All they do is BITCH and whine and complain and regurgitate the SAME BULLSHIT over and over again.

You don’t have to keep defending yourselves or jumping over hurdles to prove a fucking point that these people really don’t fucking care about anyway. It’s not about you being a bad person or not for shipping SessRin, it’s about getting a high from bullying people to do what they say.

DON’T GIVE THEM THE SATISFACTION!

Here’s the answer to your problems, lovelies! If arguing over fictional ships drains you:

FUCKING USE IT!

Peace out!

#SessRin #sesshoumaru x rin #sesshoumaru #rin #yashahime #inuyasha #setsuna #towa #srsly #block people #i don't know #how many times #i gotta #say to STOP wasting your energy #arguing with people #who don't really give a shit #on where you stand with fictional ships #it's about the smug self entitlement #and bullying #also they are a bunch of #hypocrite

[butterfly--empress]

Real Talk tho...

I would be the first to admit that I honestly and truly do not and have never needed the canon of a show to validate any of my OTPs when they happen to be non-canon or rare pairings in a fandom. I’ve been like this for yrs and will continue to be so yrs after. 

I’m usually a multi-shipper and most of the time, I never mind the obvious CANON OTP, often shipping it myself if I find it interesting enough to capture my interest, if it doesn’t I end up shipping things that I know will never be canon because honestly, fans do it better and give me the canon divergent, what if scenarios I crave that canon will never give me even when it fails hard to deliver on the actual canon OTP of the series. 

Ten plus yrs ago even as I shipped SessRin back then I never watched the show believing, wanting, or needing it to be made canon. After all, Rin was still a kid and Sesshoumaru, despite being a freaking demon with a long life span is/was practically a spoiled 16/17/18yr old with daddy issues. 

Honestly when he first appeared and changed into his true form, I saw his puppy ears and went: THIS MOFO IS A TEENAGER IN DEMON YRS?! He’s a freaking brat! Especially if you compare his size to that of his father’s demon form. So while I can see it, I never really saw his relationship with Rin as father/daughter. If people (and by people I mean antis) want to be TECHNICAL, I would say they were close to brother/sister if anything *shrugs*

I would like to say I have the confidence to believe 100% that SessRin shippers are not being massively trolled by everyone working on the sequel. From the producers, writers and down to the voice actors. 

But as much as I’m an idealist I also try to be realistic and I don’t hold my breath because I don’t trust people working on a show I’m invested in to not throw me a curve ball out of left field. So while my common sense tells me that Rin is the mother, I’m still waiting for the story to outright tell me she isn’t. 

But LORD! I NEED SessRin to be made canon, not to validate my personal reasons for shipping it and certainly not to change the minds of the Fake Willfully Ignorant, Belligerent and Hypocritical.

TL:DR: I deserve 2020 ending with Anti’s knowing that they in fact CANNOT HAVE IT THEIR WAY as they screech and cling to survive from drowning in their own salt and tears because a problematic ship became canon.

And this time; no one will be there to rescue them with a boat and a life jacket. Let them die where they lay and let us stop engaging them with our time and energy.
