#AFO circa bst (b4 shimura tragedy): ''So Shimura thinks she can nab any old orphan off the street & raise him into a symbol of peace huh.''

[super-paper]

Every time I read a MHA thinkpiece that can be summed up as "AFO is an evil All Might and Tomura is an evil Izuku", I'm like.........,

#I'm fully aware that mha is alllllll about the overlap in origins/themes between its characters #and some of the AFO/All Might + Tomura/Izuku thinkpieces are undoubtedly well written with solid points #but a lot of the time they're written as a means of explaining why AFO shouldn't be MHAs/Izuku's villain and that tends to sour my opinion #I feel understanding how Izuku acts as a savior to both All Might *and* Tomura is relevant to understanding The Vision at any rate #Anyway AFO blatantly plagiarizing Nana and twisting her lessons to the extent that he does is one of the more darkly hilarious parts of MHA #she lives in his head rent free and he fuckin hates it #AFO circa bst (b4 shimura tragedy): ''So Shimura thinks she can nab any old orphan off the street & raise him into a symbol of peace huh.'' #AFO: “Well let's just see how she feels about ~symbol raising~ when I start homeschooling her orphan grandson” #Ujiko: ''um I'm pretty sure that kid isn't an orphan??'' #AFO: "he isn't an orphan YET ;)''
