Debating having Bakugo get into 1A in my rewrite just so I can have absolutely everyone utterly destroy him and he can be expelled the first time he tries something violent so Aizawa's character actually makes sense for his stated past and motivations <3

I'm glad I dropped BNHA when I did, because if I had to read about Nana being blamed for her son, Kotaro, abusing his family, I would've lost my shit.

That ask you submitted about NO ONE being happy/giving encouragment to Izuku during the interview exercise made me way angrier than I thought.
Like you said, it would have been one thing if a few of 1A didn't (Sero and Kota since they're canonically not as close with Izuku, maybe Jirou since she just don't give af), but for EVERYONE including Tokoyami and the Deku Squad? Absolutely not.
Like Jesus fucking Christ, Hori can't just throw Izuku a win every once in a while? All Might's the only one who consistently praises him and gives him encouragment, and the narrative likes portraying as this being wrong because it "encourages Izuku's self-sacrificing tendancies."
It's bad enough that Izuku has no other talents or hobbies to speak of, he can't even have his friends in his corner?
All this does to me is paint Hori as indecisive about what he wants to do with these characters that aren’t named Midoriya or Bakugou. And it’s absolutely infuriating because Hori wants us to think 1-A is a complete unit and family together yet scenes like this tarnish that idea.
Moments when Midoriya rallies the bulk of 1-A during the provisional license exam and they all back him up with NO hesitation, and Iida and Todoroki wanting to let him know if he needs someone to talk to when they see him stressed about something during the Overhaul arc. I LOVED those scenes because they demonstrated how high of an opinion most of 1-A had of him. At the bare minimum, even those who didn’t canonically interact with him a lot or at all, like Sero or Koda, they trusted and respected him. That’s why, while I understand the feeling and can get where people are coming from, I can’t get behind the notion that Midoriya doesn’t have friends. They are simply acting out of character for dumb reasons, such as, like I said in my post, a very cheap laugh.
Honestly, it’s like the entire dynamic between Midoriya and the majority of 1-A shifted by the time you know who started to get more and more unnecessary screen time.

Part 2: Starlight
 Koroya grew up in a poor family and not wanting that life she aspired to work hard so that she could get a future where good fortune is a promise. However one day when on her way home from school the district was hit with an explosion and she was caught under the rumble, thankfully there wasn't any serious injuries but she was still under the rubble and when she was trying to get out using her quirk the rubble started getting closer to her meaning that it would most likely crush her. If it wasn't for a hero managing to save her Koroya would have died that day.
After that day and Koroya's time in the hospital recovering she found out that many pro heroes make a ton of money even the most famous ones so she decided to strive to become a rescue oriented hero just like the hero that saved her. When she started high school she met a socially awkward girl named Airi Kubo as said girl tripped and nearly fell face first onto the pavement but stopped Airi was hitting the surface. That same day after school she took the admiration exam for U.A. department of heroics where she discovered that the same girl she met earlier was also taking that same exam which became the reason the two wound up becoming friends.
However when she found out that Airi was a victim of bullying to the point that she had developed PTSD she decided to stand up to the bully for her and help her fight back. This leading to her make the decision that while she could still become a hero she's going to take on the role of Airi's sidekick to help be the very best she could be.

A reminder that Spinner canonically compares himself to Dabi and feels inferior to the rest of the League of Villains.
Part of the reason he allowed AFO to manipulate him is because he wanted to be reliable, as in he wanted to be stronger to be of use to Tomura. So again, he's canonically kinda jealous not only of Dabi's quirk, but of him as a person.

Rewatching S1E8 it's a shame Kaminari (and everyone else) didn't keep that same attitude when it came to Bakugo. Maybe if everyone had made it more clear he was a piece of shit he would've actually had development.

Considering that the Final War arc started in Chapter 343 in February 2022, I understand why people’s interest in MHA is waning because this storyline has been going on for more than 2 years and 70 chapters. 
Even if Horikoshi was a great writer, it wouldn’t have stopped people from losing interest and getting burned out on MHA because of how long it's taking for it to reach its conclusion, making this arc extremely drawn out and tedious to read.

You know, I was just thinking about the UA entrance exam.
Specifically, how terribly designed it is, but not for the reason they seem to give in the story itself.
Like, here's how it is: Aizawa is shown criticising the UA Entrance Exam once, during the Sports Festival. And the ONE criticism he makes, is that the use of Robot enemies during the exam would disproportionately affect people whose Quirk work against biological opponents, essentially.
His one criticism, is that the exam is not designed to also cater to people like him, and that's it. The way therefore it's set up, it'd be logical to assume he'd ask for a restructuring to the exam to remove the Robots and substitute them with live enemies, possibly Ectoplasm clones.
This is never brought up again, aside from maybe a stealth bring up during the mid term exams when they switch the exam from fighting robots to fighting teachers.
The exam is, and I just got to it myself while watching this video about how Copaganda paints police training and the relative risk police officers face on the job, set up in a very specific environment:
An empty town, where what is essentially a murder spree is taking place. The ONLY entities in the place, outside of fellow examinee, are robots that have been literally designed to attack everyone on sight, and that need to be destroyed to pass. The points granted from saving people are hidden, so they can be more "genuine" of course, and are, ultimately, also part of the problem.
Because here's the fucking thing.
When the fuck is that ever going to happen.
When the fuck, is a superhero, after their 5 years of Hero training in high school, then entering the work force without a need for a decree in higher education, ever going to find themselves in an environment where they can use LETHAL FORCE on civilian targets? With no restraint or care for collateral damage?
And where they are ENCOURAGED to kill as many criminals as they can, and NOT collaborate with other heroes? Because that's another thing, you need to steal points from other people to pass, by culling the number of limited robots, much like heroes are paid by the arrest and by popularity.
You do understand how fucked up that starts to sound right? The other, the enemy, is reduced as a caricature Droid from star wars, there only to kill and destroy, and against whom your only TWO methods of defeat are outright destruction or sneak attacks on their off buttons.
And here's the cherry on the shit too, because, AGAIN, when is that EVER going to be the case?
Do you know how many heroes show up in the first villain attack in BNHA?
Five.
Two are engaging a purse snatcher, three are doing crowd control, the Slime Villain, who may I remind you was guilty of robbery at a convenience store before he got the hostage, gets THE NUMBER ONE HERO, as well as those same FIVE heroes involved, of which only BACKDRAFT is actually doing anything.
Now, imagine you are a hero school, and you produce 40 heroes a year, just like every other hero school out there. How many of those heroes will see active duty, if the rate of crimes demand FIVE heroes to react to ONE criminal?
And people will say "but EDS, this mentality is later rewarded when All Might retires and it all falls to shit," Except NOT REALLY, because that's an externally forced situation caused by, and I can't stress this enough, a hundreds of yeas old NEET boomer who read too many Doctor Doom comics as a kid and decided to become a supervillain, the riots, the open air warfare, is only caused by AFO forcing the hand and inciting popular unrest, which is an unrealistic thing to expect off any society.
In one of the movies, Class 1-A is sent to open an hero agency on a small island with barely a village on it. 20 Heroes. Until the movie truly picks up, the best they do is help kittens from trees, and Bakugou, the sort of person for whom the Entrance Exam was designed, is useless, left in his tent like Achilles, the perfect cowboy cop who peeked in highschool and didn't realize just how much paperwork and dead time his dream job actually entailed.
So that's the ACTUAL Issue with the entrance exam. It take no account for any other mean to beat the robots but brute force, it takes no account for collateral damage, or the sanctity of life of your opponents, and it tests nothing but how good at ending lives you are.
Which is a problem when you're picking future heroes.

Hypothetical Rewrite: Ochaco Uraraka
Okay so here's on I know a lot of people were waiting for because a common criticism people had with MHA was its depiction of female characters which makes it worse do to the fact that the creator has shown that he could do so much with these characters but never lets them do anything plot relevant. And Uraraka is easily patient zero of this, because they are so many things that she's been shown to able to do in the main series that make her lack of relevancy worse especially with the fact with her and Ida being established as Midoriya's best friends and they get sideline in favor of Bakugo and Todoroki as the series progresses toward the finally. I will say this in advance that I will admit I have no idea how I can integrate Ida do to him and Kubo (The name for Midoriya that I'm using for the hypothetical rewrite and coming up with a character arc for him is hard) If you have any idea's let me know.
Back on topic in rewrite like I brought up in my part for All Might she's going to teach Airi something that will help her improve herself and truly become the greatest hero she can be. Her lesson; Love, now when I say that I don't mean love in a romantic sense (though that will happen) I also mean the ability to love yourself; making sure you put your well-being and happiness in high regards. I mean this is a lesson abuse victims should definitely learn a hell of a lot more than making nice with their abuser.
I want her to become the first real friend that Airi makes and become the one that encourages her to improve her mental state which in turn makes her quirk more powerful and make Airi a lot braver. Don't worry she's not going to be relegated to Manic Pixie Dream Girl status as she'll still have her reason for becoming a pro for the money and I thought with this level of relevancy that she should be someone that advocates for Japan's work ethics culture to change due to the fact of overwork/underpay is extremely rampant in the country to the point that population decline is an issue because of its work ethic (I know weebs are going to accuse me of xenophobia because I'm criticizing how capitalism is effecting Japan since it also applies to the anime and manga industry but they're objectively the last people you should talk to about when it comes to what it's like in Japan)
She also going to become the first person One for All's power amplification is going to work on due to their friendship and how it's going to work in her case is going to extend her reach in a way that will make it almost look like telekinesis and give her more time before she develops nausea. As for her fighting style while she is going to specialize in rescues more so, she will have learned aikido and systema just in case she'd have to fight back against any villains that could bring harm to others.
Now on the costume I honestly don't mind it too much especially because it has a massive resemblance to an astronaut but I thought that if we're trying to make the protagonist a shounen action hero that we need a partner that's on other side of the coin should be a magical girl protagonist. So the costume I'm thinking more a retro sci-fi aesthetic much like what the female characters in the Jetsons would wear with a cowl that goes over her head covering up her hair and that same cowl having a visor for extra protection and keep her from being nauseous; it also has an AR set that analyzes building structures, medical analysis, keeps in contact with allies, and up to date on villain activities.
The attire also has a pair of wrist and ankle bands that release air pressure that help her use her quirk to fly the same device is also on her belt. Her belt also is equipped with metal canisters that contain medicine, bandages, and a means of arresting villains as well as the canisters can be used to knock out an opponent using her quirk.
Name: Mochizuki Koroya
Hero: Starlight
Quirk: Zero Gravity
