Last minute speculation about the next chapter, which will hopefully leak today. 247 will carry the title "Originality" according to PO2 Scans.

In this chapter, Noa rounds up the Japanese players for a strategy meeting. He finds Igaguri and Kiyora training (calling it now: they're rehearsing malicia foul 💀), while the other seven are in the monitor room checking out the new rankings.

...but there's ten players in BM.

...Kunigami, I'm trying to give your emo ass plot relevance, bear with me.

More likely than not, "Originality" will be Noa glazing Isagi and his MV powered plays, during the strategy meeting. Maybe it'll be the coach throwing Igaguri, Kiyora and Neru a bone at last, with an order to showcase their originality. Because they're unseen talents, that might give BM an edge over PXG.

Go figure. But what the title made my mind jump to was the inverse of originality: imitation.

Kunigami is Noel Noa's mimic, the Wild Card copycat. Although it's hard to get a read on the frigid bastard, it's unlikely he's pleased by this hulking teenager trying to ape his playstyle. He's an egoist himself, after all, if not one in Ego Jinpachi's mould. Besides, the experiment has arguably failed.

Being Noel Noa hasn't worked in Kunigami's favour.

Wild Card improved his physical stats, robbed him of his ability to co-operate on the pitch, and has rendered him next to invisible in Bastard Munchen. Yukimiya and Hiori had more impact in round 3 against Ubers, and the latter barely played five minutes of that match.

I could go on and on, but I already have: here I talk at length about Kunigami's character arc. But in short, in my view, this is the key thematic question of the Neo Egoist League, for both him and Isagi:

"Originality" is one of the qualities needed to adapt and survive. Isagi shows it in spades, and has all but conquered the team for himself. It's about time Kunigami took that advice on board and changed tactic.

But.... let's see. Watch the next chapter be an Isagi-glaze fest—I'll head to Tumblr Live on its deathbed to wipe the egg off my face.

#i lied: i will not go on Tumblr Live ever #further disclaimer: i like isagi and bear him no ill will #i would just like to see our wild card anti hero get some development already #if you think this post is a reach just wait until I write about how an offhand panel in episode nagi confirms Kunigiri as a ship #blue lock #bllk #blue lock manga #blue lock manga spoilers #blue lock spoilers #bllk speculation #kunigami rensuke #noel noa #isagi yoichi #bllk chp 246 #bllk chp 247

Ok, I’m arguing with someone about the Todoroki family, and like I get there maybe some responsibility on Rei’s shoulders as a parent. However, they’re saying Rei was abusive towards Enji, that she abused him and her being aggressive and constantly yelling is what changed him. They said he was a victim turned abuser, and that his family emotionally abused him. Did Rei abuse him? Was he emotionally abused by his family? Like the situation was a spiral I guess but in no way did it give off that he was the victim of the family situation???

Tell them to reread the manga. In the best way possible, really. I probably have to reread the manga too because I don't remember all that well the whole Todofam drama, but here I go:

Long post, beware!!!!! ;)

For what I know, Enji's trauma started with the death of his father. That's what motivated him to become a hero. After that, he got blinded by his perfectionism and his jealousy towards All Might.

The only reason the Todofam exists is because Enji wanted a child with both fire and ice quirks. That's why he proposed to Rei. The Himuras were very old-fashioned, in the sense that they didn't even like their members marrying outside of the family so as to not stain their names. Their quirks got weaker with time, they started losing money and influence. That's when Enji arrived: he'd give money to the Himuras if Rei were to marry him.

Now, Rei's trauma comes from her family and the ways of the Himuras. Her trauma didn't start with Enji, but it surely intensified with it.

Attempting to create a quirks through arranged marriages is a dangerous dangerous thing to do. We see a doctor telling that to both Enji and Rei. They were aware of that. The problem with the union of Enji and Rei is that, even if there was love at the beginning —even if— it depended solely on the quirks of the children. A man who willingly pushes away his children because they don't have the quirk he wants and that forces their mother to raise them alone— that's not a good husband or father, you know?

Rei was there to provide him with children and to take care of them. It sounds more like she was an employee than her wife. It was abuse right from the start, okay?

Rei did what he asked. Birthed his children and took care of them. She was submissive at first. Went along with his plans. You know the drill.

When it was revealed that Touya's body couldn't handle the heat of his flames, that's when things got ugly. They knew the risk, it shouldn't have been a surprise. At that point, Enji had put a lot of pressure and expectations on little Touya. He filled the kid's head with lies, made Touya value himself only by his dad's expectations. Touya was born for one reason alone and he had been living for it and it was killing him.

Rei saw that. Enji saw that.

Both tried to do damage control and backtrack, but Touya was too smart. While they told Touya he could live his life as something else than the hero his father wanted, he knew that it made him a failure in their eyes. The stress of destroying her children's lives got to both Rei and Enji. It wasn't something intangible. It was their son burning alive right before their eyes. It was their son telling Rei the truth of her marriage to her face.

Let's be honest here, Rei was one step away from being a slave. She married Enji to save her family and damned children in the process.

I think in order to properly understand Rei's role in the whole drama, you need to consider certain cultural aspects. Like how women are viewed in Japan, what is expected from them once they get married, the power a husband has over his wife, how women get economically trapped by men in relationships all the time... I'm not an expert on those aspects, but it's worth mentioning them.

Now, back to Rei and Enji.

Rei started "fighting" Enji after Touya was fully deemed a failure. You can see that she didn't like the idea of another child, especially because it'd be terrible for Touya's wellbeing. It'd confirm he was not enough. Still, she went along with Enji's plan. It was not a happy house. Enji was acting more and more aggressively, Rei was more and more nervous. Shouto was born and Touya tried to kill him— he didn't want to be replaced, he did not want to lose his place at home.

It started building. what happened to Touya was not confined to Sekoto Peak. It was years in the making, that tragedy. I can only imagine how Rei felt when she got the news. She had begged her son to stay, but her submissive role couldn't save him. It wouldn't be enough.

Touya dies. Enji spirals.

Horikoshi is careful to draw Rei terrified. She tells ugly truths to Enji's face. Is that abuse? Is it abuse if a woman who's being treated like an employee and who had to watch her husband traumatize their kids screams at said man? We know that Enji was physically abusive with Shouto and that he even went against Rei, which made Shout stand up to him to stop him from hurting his mom.

The only reason why Rei had a mental breakdown (freaking diagnosed) is because the very eyes of Enji were enough to make her shake and want to defend herself physically.

It's obvious she was scared for her life. It's even more obvious she was convinced he would hurt her. She was terrified of her own children 'cause they looked like him.

Rei was definitely not the best mother. She didn't deserve to reach that level of abuse, tho.

What made Endeavor be like that is the violence of the society he grew up in and his very own competitiveness and low self-esteem. Then the consequences of his own actions. For All Might and Deku to feel like they need to protect Shouto from Endeavor? For Rei to rather be in a mental hospital than at home? For Touya to go back and decide he didn't want to be alive?

He is textually treated like a villain in the manga. At least at first.

Even if Rei confronting Enji caused him some psychological damage, it's the same as saying that a criminal got physiological trauma from committing his crimes. Saying Rei was the one who made him like that is awful victim blaming.

Enji created all those situations himself. I guess that's why Rei reminds him at the hospitals that he doesn't get to play the "poor me" role, when they all have been dealing with the hurt of what happened to their family.

Later, Endeavor acknowledges it himself. He takes responsibility for it, stops feeling pity for himself and decides to do something about it. Namely, puts his life on the line to solve the issue with the Todorokis. You know how fire is known for its purifying properties? You can say that the Todofam burning together gave them a second chance, somehow.

Their resolution involved Rei taking an active role in saving Touya (same with Fuyumi and Natsuo), while Enji put himself at the service of the son he always ignored and mistreated. I didn't write it, it was all Horikoshi.

So again, kindly tell the other person to reread the manga and then you both can engage in that discussion again. As it is, I doubt it'd reach any productive term.

Hope this answer satisfies you, anon!!!!!

Tfw you go from i love this show/book/movie but it just needed better character writing and less plot holes and better world building and better this and better that and you slowly realise you never even liked the actual piece of media but instead you liked the concept and you liked what could've been done with the concept if it had a better creator.

Dabi stans are fr some of the most delusional fuckers on the internet. I’m done being nice about it. Jesus Christ.

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t want Endeavour to be redeemed in any way; his life needs to be a constant path of atonement. But nothing this character does will ever be good enough for any of you fuckers.

It’s fine if you hate him, it’s fine if you never forgive him. That’s the point of the fucking character. But those of you who sit there and constantly say how much of a piece of shit he STILL is and how he hasn’t changed are honestly just a bunch of entitled children.

All any of you are doing is most likely projecting your own traumas onto these characters and that’s why you react to them as viscerally as you do.

Grow the fuck up. Sorry that whatever happened to you happened to you, but I honestly don’t care tbh. These characters aren’t you or the person/event that inflicted your trauma on you. They aren’t gonna act the way you do. They aren’t gonna act the way your abusers may have.

And you all act like Dabi is completely innocent. Don’t get me wrong, everything he went through is godawful, but that doesn’t excuse or justify his actions in-world. Trauma is never an excuse to then inflict further cruelty on others.

Is a victim of emotional neglect and abuse (and some manipulation towards then end)? Absolutely yes, 100%

But he’s also a sadistic murderer or has taken enjoyment in killing people, and isn’t doing what he’s doing just to take revenge on his dad. He has clearly in the past had no qualms in hurting his other family members.

There is nothing wrong with likening or disliking a character. But let’s not pretend either him nor Endeavour are something they’re not.

Might be an overreaction, but there’s other stuff that fucks me off about the fandom too, not just the delusional Dabi stans with fantastic double-standards. You’re pathetic. This fandom sucks ass.

I honestly can’t wait till Horikoshi finishes the manga and can finally wash his hands of it and all of you.

The one thing that many people within the My Hero Academia fandom forgets about Toga is what her crimes originally was in the beginning of the series...

Occurring to an interview that Horikoshi did the numbers were in-between 13-25 people that Toga killed.

But there is also a number on a wiki page for her saying it was 6.

But her main problem at the end of the series is that she doesn't want to get caught. Look the saying is; you do the crime you do the time.

Which is the main problem. Her story was not handled well and has so many problems. Especially when in the end she chose the easy way out instead of facing the consequences...

Endeavor peeps on Twitter are a whole different breed I swear to god 😫 this is why I stay in the BKDK tags instead of the Todofan tags I swear to god:

A reply to said tweet😭:

I hate it here, I HATE IT HERE 😤! I get thinking he had a right to be frustrated at Rei for not stopping Touya, and to a degree I would say I understand. However, him being frustrated does not give him a right to hit her, and grab her by the scruff of her shirt screaming at her. Let alone right in front of their 5yr old child, which is just as traumatic for a child as other horrible events!

When Endeavor builds the new Todoroki house, he makes sure to have a second house built out back for Touya and his friends to move into, only for the League to set up a fire pit out in the garden and sit around laughing and roasting marshmallows while Endeavor stares out the window at them, fuming because it's the happiest he's ever seen Touya be. Especially when that blond guy with the weird eyes wraps his arm around Touya and pulls him against his side.

Just remembering when some people thought BKDKs were wanting Deku to arrive to save Bakugou because "they want Bakugou to be a damsel". (Which I honestly didn't see BKDKs want. Save Bakugou, yeah, but not because he's a damsel. Because hello, that is still someone important in his life??? Also, to prevent him from dying... which we all know how that went...)

I don't know about everyone else, but I wanted Deku to show up so they can kick ass TOGTHER. One of the themes of this series is working together, isn't it?!

And I still want that for when Katsuki wakes up.

TEAMWORK MAKES THE DAMN DREAM WORK!
