#and factors outside of his control forcing the story into certain directions he didn't want

Where do you think all might and deku's relationship will go from 317/327?

I really, really hate to disappoint you like this, since I’ve seen you and a few other dadmight people in my notifications a lot recently (which makes me smile 💕), but unfortunately I.... don’t really have enough investment in MHA anymore to be able to give a good answer to this. I kinda did, during the war arc and Izuku’s vigilante arc, but even then things were starting to go downhill, and after that the manga just took a massive nosedive straight down into absolute dogshit territory, and any real faith I had in Izuku & Toshinori’s relationship being given the proper resolution it deserves has...... pretty much completely disappeared. Horikoshi has all but outright admitted in recent interviews that he’s rushing the story to a conclusion, that’s painfully obvious just reading it as of late, and so I’ve just fallen out of it almost entirely in favor of other, better things, sadly. I still read it, it still has good moments here and there that I like on their own, but........ yeah. to be brutally honest, I don’t expect their relationship to go anywhere at all, anymore; 217 was a promising hook to great things, but then it was “followed up” by 327, which is possibly one of the worst chapters in the entire manga for them. So. Yeah. Izuku & Toshinori will always be special to me, they’ll always be my favorite part of MHA, and I’ll probably still come back to them one day in the future, but right now I’m just really, really disappointed with what’s happened with the manga, and just don’t have the energy to care about the direction it’s gone in. 🙃

#replies #me; used to be a mha fan??? used to write a lot of mha fic??? remember those days??? peppridge farm remembers!! lmao #it's really sad fam #who could have ever seen this coming that the manga would crash and burn like this //sarcasm #it's not like horikoshi ever had major writing issues even BEFORE it got this bad.......... *sigh* #i wanted to hold out hope but here we are #mha is confirmed to be ending this year and we're never gonna get to see all of the amazing things it could have done #and look i don't entirely blame horikoshi #writing is fucking hard #and writing a manga even harder; unfairly so #and from what i've heard his new editor might have been a huge part of the problem #as well as japanese fans not liking villains for some reason(???) and forcing hori to have to avoid developing them enough #earlier in the series #even when he wanted to #so he's hardly entirely to blame #i don't blame him for wanting to just be done already with how much mha blew up and how much he's had to do #and factors outside of his control forcing the story into certain directions he didn't want #but it still fucking sucks and i'm always gonna be so upset :''''') #this series and especially izuku & all might was really special #and deserved to go much longer and be better instead of petering out pathetically at the end like this #aoyama traitor is cool but like should have been done ages ago. dabi development is great. but it's all just 'too little too late' #so much wasted potential </3 #anyway my own character arc has been realizing that mha was always gonna let me down and that aot was always better lmaooo oops-
