So policemen, firemen, doctors, etc people who save lives every day aren't heros to Deku? Instead of becoming of those noble things he throws a tantrum and makes his mom become obese from stress worrying about him.
Also why didn't get work out at all? Kacchan was a prodigy with an amazing quirk but he still built more muscle on his body than Deku. He worked harder than Deku who just took a bunch of notes?
Why did someone who only took notes and studied heros have to break his arms so many times to figure out kicking is stronger and also safer?
Why does he cry every time something doesn't go his way?
He's an attention whore. He want the praise and glory
Parker Wilson
The series has a terrible message for the youth.

Isaiah Myers
it's a shounen a bad one but a shounen nonetheless you have to turn your brain off to enjoy it
Luke Edwards
Because deku is nothing but a self insert character for retarded worthless trash that hopes that "maybe one day I will get super powers and then I dont need to do shit, cause I got super powers" Fuck Deku, the worst MC in shonen history.
Juan Bennett
I will pin that on editors, because Hori wrote the story of a frustrated Hero taking an alternate path with Melissa. I feel that Hori would have at least made Deku's plight more relatable, or even made his lack of quirk be relevant (like, Allmight can only pass his quirk to a quirkless and was worried that he might be the last OfA user because every kid had a quirk)
Eli Rivera
If that's the message, the story should try to convey it, because right now it kinda seems that holding onto those unhealthy expectations it's totally right. Kinda like Naruto and its laughable attempt at selling that hard work can beat natural talent.

The whole point of Stain's arc was to basically write out that theme in bold letters for you. Same with the MLA, Yakuza, and the majority of the villain alliance.

Jack Jenkins
You mean to tell me that crying until you get something is character motivation? Cause that is Deku at the start of it all.
Jack Evans
no. it's not that deku doesn't think doctors or whatever are not heros, the entire fucking point is that he wants to be a hero in the vein of All Might. i'm not sure how this can escape you considering that the nerd takes notes on heros on his spare time, cries while watching all might videos, and has more hero merchandise than your average /jp/ basement dweller.
Noah Green
It is for shitposting purposes. Op copypasta had been proven wrong many times almost to a point where it isn't worth the time and only shitposters bumping the thread
>crying until you get something is character motivation. How about actually reading the series first before posting user.
Bentley Russell
I can understand not liking Deku as a character for many reasons, but every question and reason in your post literally screams either "I don't have basic reading comprehension" or "I don't understand general human emotions/psychology." Actually, it sounds like a combination of both, so you should probably stick to books closer to your reading level. My 3-year-old cousin loves The Berenstain Bears, maybe go with that.
please dont post cringey faggot pictures like this
Tyler Ward

Brody Reed
Okay, so he want to be all might. This still changes nothing because he does nothing. The only thing he does is fanboy, and the notebooks. Its like I would say that I want to be Messi but I only take notes of games, but never kick a football or goes joging. >People cant have differing views

The worst shounen show/manga with the worst MC of all time. It must be some sort of anti record. I should remember the name of the mangaka but only for the sole purpose to never touch any of his/her other works in the future.

>So policemen, firemen, doctors, etc people who save lives every day aren't heros to Deku? People in real life who grow up wanting to be police officers don't just decide "Eh, being a doctor is close enough and basically the same thing." It's a society that treats being a hero as an occupation that you need special training and a license to be. He's a young boy who wants to go down a certain career path that he knew since he was 4 was just a dream and not something he could achieve in reality and he had the opportunity to give it a shot by applying even if it was a long shot. Nowhere did it say that he didn't think of Police Officers or Doctors as heroes in their own right, just that he wanted to be a Pro Hero like All Might.
The whole point of Stain's arc was to force a conflict that wasn't there, which is why it's pretty much forgotten soon after it happens.

For someone who does not do martial arts its hard to understand but kicking can be awkward and slow if you don't have practice.

Deku was put down and bullied incessantly, told by everyone he's less than and most importantly, HE WAS IN FUCKING MIDDLE SCHOOL. He was a big fan of heroes and only dreamed of becoming one, he never actually thought he could. Read his fucking inner monologues he was a depressed little kid who knew he wasn't gonna be a hero but at least wanted to try getting into UA before giving up.
Goddamn fucking autists don't understand nuance of the human condition.

Jace Ross
>So policemen, firemen, doctors, etc people who save lives every day aren't heros to Deku? Those aren't heroes to me, those are just entitled government workers.

Because Deku is a lazy faggot fanboy with no initiative and his goals are horrendously immature and shallow when you put things in perspective. You know a protagonist is bad when people come to like the bully with a abhorrent personality who screams nonstop and unironically tells people to kill themselves more than him.
Go back to where you came from
Nathan Mitchell
Because the only reason he wants to be a hero is to be like all might. He doesn't actually care about being strong or helping others. He's the definition of a brainless fanboy, that's why herofags love him so much
> lazy faggot fanboy with no initiative Not lazy, he put in a tremendous amount of effort to study heroism and put up with a lot of bullying to learn as much as he could from Bakugo.
>his goals are horrendously immature and shallow when you put things in perspective Well he was a child I know you came out your moms cunt a 30 year old neckbeard but not all of us were so lucky.
>You know a protagonist is bad As opposed to what? A screaming retard like Luffy or Naruto? Or the random cut and paste unimaginative "can do" attitude 90% of shounen have? We're literally watching a whiny, wimp like Deku turn into a fucking powerhouse with an indomitable will. You might not like character progression but some of us do.

Jonathan Moore
>People in real life who grow up wanting to be police officers don't just decide "Eh, being a doctor is close enough and basically the same thing."
They literally do though. I've seen tons of people who wanted to be a firefighter or police officer to help people as a child and instead settled for something safer and less physically tasking like a doctor or a teacher, people who wanted to be vets as kids to help animals who decided to be volunteers instead, etc., the reason he states constantly as to why he wants to be a hero is to "save people". It's something that's constantly repeated throughout the series, so of course people are going to see his goals as fucking stupid when he was basically sitting around waiting for a quirk instead of trying to do literally anything else in his attempts to "save people" since apparently that's all he wants to do in life.
Adam Anderson
Undoubtedly, it's doing really good sales wise.
Adrian Carter
>Not lazy, he put in a tremendous amount of effort to study heroism Some notebooks equivocal to a kid taking down his favorite football player's or pokemon's stats which have barely ever proven to be useful aren't "tremendous effort". That's fanboying. People like Mei who make tech that puts her on the same tier as people with amazing quirks are what constitute as tremendous amounts of effort towards studying heroism.
>and put up with a lot of bullying to learn as much as he could from Bakugo. Yeah that's why he "put up" with it. It wasn't because he was a fanboying beta who acts like Bakugou's beaten wife who had no chance of beating him in a fight or anything.
>Well he was a child I know you came out your moms cunt a 30 year old neckbeard but not all of us were so lucky. Nearly every fucking shonen protagonist save for Goku is "a cHiLd" you faggot. They still try to make up for her shortcomings. And jesus fucking christ, 'neckbeard'? Is it 2013? If you wanted to go talk about MHA with normalshits leave the fucking site, go to twitter and suck off the series with the other underage faggots there.
>As opposed to what? A screaming retard like Luffy or Naruto? Or the random cut and paste unimaginative "can do" attitude 90% of shounen have? Ah yeah, because who would ever want a protagonist who actually pushes the plot along instead of being completely reactive.
>So it Hori a shit writer or a good one? I said Deku was a shit character and never even brought up Hori's general writing ability, dumbfuck.

Anyway, Deku thought that he could get away with just his notes and being smart which helped him against the slime villain,

He not only breaks down their quirk, but their style, how they use them and then devises counter measures in, as stated multiple times by his classmates, incredible attention to detail. That's more than just "fanboying" it's the equivalent of an MMA fan breaking down boxer's styles and coming up with counter measures like high class coaches.
>Yeah that's why he "put up" wit...
That's why he knew how to beat him in a fist fight, how to move in mid air and exactly how to counter him using his own personality and, y'know, he's expressly stated it multiple time that's the reason he did it. Slow down speed reader-kun.
>Nearly every fucking shonen prota...

Again Deku is a nuanced interesting character just like Bakugo. You're oversimplifying to fit your narrative but it falls apart when someone that's not a speed reader actually scrutinizes your retarded opinion. Faggot.

Noah Nelson
>hard work beating natural talent This happened NOWHERE in Naruto,it was more if fate was predetermined or not. Even Naruto is calling Neji a hypocrite here.
That's not Naruto's fucking message though. Naruto never did hard work. Stop this meme already. Naruto was a social underdog, his arc wasn't about getting stronger. All that hard work thing was Lee's arc and he fucking failed
Brandon Reyes
In addition,He calls himself to be more 'special' than Neji is,he does the same in his fight with Sasuke. I don't even know where you picked this nonexistent meme "Hard work beating talent",even the most hard working kid in the series i;e Lee lost to Gaara,same happened in Hinata vs Neji.
> I've seen tons of people who wanted to be a firefighter or police officer to help people as a child and instead settled for something safer and less physically tasking like a doctor or a teacher But Deku was exactly fucking doing this exact fucking thing on this page? Was it too late? Was 14 years old too late for you?
Doubtful. Heroes are seen as the best, and Deku is going to become the best. The story isn't going to show Deku learning his dream was wrong, he's going to be rewarded for believing and achieve it.
Anthony Morgan
I dropped it because of both of them. It's just Naruto but unironically worse in every way.
Jordan Reed
Making Deku a quirkless hero was a wasted opportunity anyway, Sure, we eventually got one in hte form of Knuckle Duster, but seeing Deku having use pragmatism and "cowardly" tactics to win against enemies with quirks would be interesting.
Christopher Diaz
I think a problem arises when comparing him to other shonen protags that by 14-15 had already started some basic training of some sort. As others have said, Bakugou trained his body&mind as well as his quirk. Deku trained....his mind? He really should be a doctor if that's all he bothered to train.
Jonathan Taylor
just a typical shonen-shit mc bitch and moan untill ex machina
Isaac Murphy
But then you have no journey. If a character is already finished at chapter 1 then what is even the point Shonen has to have growth. That is why power creep is such a big fucking problem. Because shonen can't stop having growth
So essentially for a story a character should only have the bare minimum and then learn everything else. Deku has the bare minimum of wanting to help people Like in real studies the whole person who runs out. Everything else he has to learn
Matthew Scott
That's why i feel like Deku should have a seemilingly useless quirk, but learn how to use it in a good way, like say, the power to shoot your facial hair like bullets, and eventually he becomes a hero that, while not in the main spotlight, can nevertheless help other heroes and give them the much needed support in battle. It would lead to an interesting aesop that you don't need to be the "main character" to be useful to society, but simply doing your part and helping those that can do it is something heroic on their own.

Justin Cooper
I wouldn't mind that story. But I don't think this story really goes for the same message and general idea.
Evan Carter
Ok, but Luffy, Goku, Naruto, even a more comparable character like Asta, all trained for most of their lives before the beginning of the story where they finally set out on their journey. They didn't just wake up one day, get a new power and start acting like they could win without any training whatsoever. But that's what Deku does. Bakugou trains hard, but Deku just does nothing for years but dream of becoming the greatest someday. Usually the characters that say that at least had some training, but not Deku. Until All Might offers him powers and flat out tells him to train for them. Deku does nothing and is just told what to do by All Might.
Josiah Miller
Are you saying Deku doesn't have a body? Poor kid.
Mason Taylor
It's so stupid how all might created an entire ten-month training and diet regimen yet deku still fucked it up and did too much
Parker Perry
World Trigger is basically that message. MC tries to get some OP powers but realizes that much more experienced people already have these kind of hax, so he picks up some support abilities and manages to stay useful, even though he isn't in the heat of the fight. Good fucking anime btw.
Jayden Perry
>Ok, but Luffy, Goku, Naruto, even a more comparable character like Asta, all trained for most of their lives before the beginning of the story Yeah And they really aren't growing. Goku never changed. Even now he is very much the little kid as a character. Which is my point.
Carson Taylor
So give characters max confidence stat from the beginning?
Sebastian Rivera
Has Deku really grown though? He still damages his body, he still rushes into fights. All that has changed is his skill. He's no different from the others.
Eli Jenkins

Gabriel Bell
>And they really aren't growing. For all the shit the show gets, Naruto from all the other mcs probably grew the most.
Matthew Morgan
Not wrong. I honestly had other issues with Naruto than Naruto's characterization.
Jaxson Morris
Like?
Jason Fisher
I could never really grasp the technology level of the world. Never likes Sasuke who became more and more important.
I'd say Luffy definitely changes how he fights. It's just that he was always creative so him being even more creative doesn't appear to be growth. Contrary Deku was always supposed to be smart and determoined(not confident), but never really came off as such and so it's more noticeable when he's at the bare minimum of improving. Like, Deku has always said what he thought to Bakugou, but recently Bakugou finally started respecting him so it looks like more grown for Deku than it really is. It's just Bakugou that grew.
Hunter Morris
Technology level is that they just don't have transport(they can travel at really hogh speeds,so what's the point of short range travelling?,trains and vaccums in Boruto make sense). They had com devices, CCTV,guns,TV and stuff,that's about it.
I can't complain about Sasuke since most people hate him,me and that other autist are probably the only ones like him on Yea Forums.
Bentley Reyes
*high
Kayden Fisher
Bakugo hasn't really changed how he addresses Deku But Deku now understand him better. So I would say you are wrong the reason this now works is because of Deku
But yeah that is my point. Deku starts out with just the bare minimum so even weaker growth is easily observable and highlighted while Luffy also growth it is not as obvious in every part of Luffy like it is with Deku
Gabriel Hernandez
I know this is a bait thread but I'll bite. There's an obvious difference between superhuman individuals using their abilities professionally and the subjective notion of "a hero" and the existence of one doesn't negate the other. They even mention many times in the series that cops, fire crews, etc are an invaluable contribution to society in addition to capefags. Also deku was inspired by all might's image specifically.
Bentley Wright
Well those guys get a lot less TV propaganda so who could blame a kid for wanting to be like what's cool on TV.
Daniel Kelly
Perhaps, but Bakugou did change how he perceives Deku. He sees him as a credible adversary basically. So it's both of their growth. I still say it's a problem that Deku needs to change though when the story is "He deserved OfA because he was who he was" which should say he was reasonably competent in the beginning. But he wasn't.
Charles Richardson
Saitama os the Mary stu version of every hero. Doesn't care about the big stuff until it personally affects him and gets rid of it with instant efficiency, trains a little to get massive power, always comes at just the right time to give a monologue and play hero, makes no attempt to bond yet gets most s and a class heroes to want to be acquaintances with him, and still the eternal underdog in society since no one gives him credit for anything
Nathaniel Butler
>Perhaps, but Bakugou did change how he perceives Deku. He sees him as a credible adversary basically This isn't true at all.
Blake Smith
>Naruto from all the other mcs probably grew the most. Not really in fact he regressed a shit ton as the series went on and is pretty much an a Suguru level embarrassment come Bourto.
>existence of one doesn't negate the other It does though. Because of pro heroes, there really isn't a subjective notion of a hero anymore. Anyone can be one as long as they have a quirk, go to school and pass.
Alexander Campbell
>I think a problem arises when comparing him to other shonen protags that by 14-15 had already started some basic training of some sort. Goku didn't actually start training seriously until he was in his teens he was strong from the very beginning with the joke being that he was just a kid but could pull off amazing feats like nothing in fact he doesn't start training until several volumes into DB. We never saw Luffy training at all throughout OP until the timeskip before then we only got a bit of insight into his childhood when we're introduced to Garp roughly 40+ volumes into the story. With Naruto we see him train constantly BUT we never see him implement anything he learned from school which is mostly skipped nor do we see how he actually trains back then in fact its set up like regular school with nothing strenuous or complex at all. >As others have said, Bakugou trained his body&mind as well as his quirk We never saw him do this. In fact in pretty much every fucking case in the story we see the characters started training a year or so before they actually have to take their exams with the eye exception of Todoroki who did not have the best childhood precisely because of Endeavor's regime.
Brody Morris
Luffy was already clearly pretty strong when he first set out considering he OHKO's the sea monster that nearly killed him in the prologue, we just don't get the specifics until way later
Connor Nelson
The title of pro hero is different from a heroic person or act
Parker King
Well, he's able to keep Deku's secret. I don't see how he couldn't if he didn't have some acceptance of Deku. Not a lot, but some.
Jayden Reed
Yeah that's what I said he was strong from the beginning of the story and took at captains and crews with much more experience than him with a fruit that wasn't particularly strong yet the most we get into his training was that Garp threw him in the woods to not get killed.
Asher Hall
It's not about seeing the training, but knowing it took place. A guy who has a developed body has stayed in some kind of shape. Especially when Bakogou is among the (if not the) strongest in the class of prodigies.

>I still say it's a problem that Deku needs to change though when the story is "He deserved OfA because he was who he was" which should say he was reasonably competent in the beginning No The point of it was that All Might saw the potential and desire to help and he was inspired by Deku That was the most important The competence is what All Might can train and Deku has to gain through the story.
Aaron Hughes
Are you retarded? How do any of those professions measure up to being a hero?
Levi Jackson
He had Mirio picked out already, and there was no reason to choose Deku over Mirio since as we saw Mirio would be just as good, if not better, at mastering the powers and saving lives faster.
Liam Reed
o my magical loli healer overdrive
Evan Wright
>He had Mirio picked out already Nighteye did And yeah wouldn't have been bad. But he doesn't share the madness All Might does That is small difference is the point. Mirio wasn't ready to save Eri and wouldn't have run out to save Bakugo
Michael Kelly
That's fair, but when he graduates, which he would much faster since he's older, he would easily be able to start doing his job easily. He'd then easily master his multiple quirks and become an All Might tier hero in his own way, but of course better since OfA works that way+multiple quirks. Remember, the point is that the successor doesn't have to be exactly like All Might. They just have to be a hero who gives it their all. Mirio was a hero, and he would easily inspire people.
Caleb Gray
>mc is wishy-washy loser who endlessly whinged about being powerless before being granted the most powerful quirk in existence for some basic heroism and then continues to be the same pathetic faggot who cannot get his """rival's""" dick out of his mouth for the whole series >deuteragonist is some psycho manchild who constantly spergs out and is a generally terrible person, who suddenly gets a """dramatic""" reveal at the end of the third season that he actually has had a super deep inferiority complex the whole time and wow so deep but he still remains the same retarded sperg >supporting cast gets random bursts of development and are then promptly forgotten >every single battle except one is borderline hajime no ippo "gotta punch harder" tier >seven quirk asspull in the manga basically guarantees mc will never face a fight he cannot win, as the extra quirks on top of the strongest ability on earth makes him a complete overdog
Gabriel Kelly
nighteye choose him, not AM. just because he did not tolerate that the peace symbol would withdraw, he try to find someone as close to All MIght as possible that borders on the creepy and homogenize the OFA in subjects most similar to All Might. very similar to what David Shield did in the movie that only sought to maintain the status quo
Evan Carter
It is not healing.
Aaron Baker
o my magical loli totally-not-healer overdrive
Jackson Price
Yes. All Might never disaproved of Mirio Nighteye and All Might were on a phone when he told him about Deku and All Might essentially said "A quirkless little boy is fine too" Also remember there was no time limit or external threat at that point All Might thought he had killed All for One.
Jonathan Sullivan
That is better. It is not a asspull btw.
Christopher Rodriguez
I really do think it's interesting that All Might could've chose wrong, but the story kind of just glosses over it. Deku wins, Mirio loses powers, but it's just a tragedy that even Mirio doesn't seem too worked up about. Oh, and Nighteye is dead. Which is also kind of irrelevant. Weird.
Jackson Phillips
>I really do think it's interesting that All Might could've chose wrong, but the story kind of just glosses over it. It is brought up and Deku is actually challenged In a weaker version of that Story Mirio would turn out to be selfish or an asshole or downright a villain That is also how you could write it. But instead even though he is a rival he turns out to be just as good and could've been worthy.
Mirio didn't lose the power to say "okay that is his punishment for not being worthy". Mirio lost the power so he becomes even worthier of OfA With permeation you could argue that giving OfA to a quirkless boy who turns into a great hero and Mirio with Permeation turns into a great hero you have two great heroes Mirio doesn't really need Permeation. Without it even Deku was on the verge of telling him about it and giving it to him.
Matthew Kelly
Mirio is worthy for sacrificing his power and Deku is worthy for being willing to sedate him for someone he considered most worthy
Kayden Sanders
Oh I'm aware, Mirio is good, but it doesn't really matter. He just loses powers and everything's fine. Nighteye also dies, but again it's just a thing that happens. Kind of sad.
Bentley Reyes

Cameron King
Everything has terrible messages for the youth nowadays. We're too focused on making realistic relatable characters rather than idealistic paragons that we can strive to be like. Really ask yourself this, who would you want to be if given the choice Deku or Superman Most people will say Deku because they don't want to be morally obligated to be the Man of Tomorrow and show humanity a better way, they'd rather be a crybaby who wants a handout they feel they've earned because......because.
Anthony Gonzalez
Honestly Deku had to work way harder after meeting All Might
So if you really think >works hard with a personal trainer to become what he wants to be Is a worse message than >immigrate to another country where you are just better than everyone else You can keep your superman
Noah Thompson
fight against Stain and the fight against multiple villains at the water level of USJ. Good post have a (you).
Nathaniel Rodriguez
I think that metroman answered that question now
Liam Jones
Both are good characters to aspire to for different reasons.
Brody Parker
I've been refraining calling Deku as a self-insert, but as the series progresses, it's safe to say that Deku is a blatant self insert
Gavin Baker
Yes because Superman never had to train. He didn't have to learn to control the fact he can shoot beams out his eyes that hit temperatures higher than most lasers we have even today, that he can hear everything on Earth, can lift and crush planets but has to open doorknobs and shake people's hands, how to perceive events in real time despite the fact he can move multiple times faster than light. And let's also ignore the fact he constantly struggles with the question of if he does too much or too little to help humanity, his feelings of isolation brought out by being that immigrant. Let's also ignore the fact he puts that all away and does what he was taught growing up about helping people and doing good regardless of Superpowers, which Superman does too. Shocking I know, but even without Super powers Superman has tried to help people using his job as a reporter to bring light to crime and injustice. That is what you call an idealistic hero, and I'd rather be than then some entitled kid
Samuel Ortiz
>Yes because Superman never had to train. Yeah not for the powers
If you are arguing that having to learn to control powers somehow makes superman better than Deku then I assume you are not up to date with the manga.
Landon Collins
He fails as a self-insert If he actually would win more and get revenge on his bully. The same people who complain about him now would love him as a self-insert. They are disappointed he isn't a blatant self-insert power fantasy.
Blake Thomas
>Yeah not for the powers Torquasum Vao
Kevin Watson
But Superman is absolutely horrible character because of the dissonance between what he is intended to be and the way he is written. Because he has so many different powers that completely negate the limits other heroes have (super speed, perception, flight, stamina, sunlight-based nutrition & regeneration etc) Superman comes off as selfish asshole only saving people when he feels like it. Everytime Supes is larping as human reporter at Daily Planet he's making conscious decision to leave thousands of people he knows are in danger & he could save for death. Ergo, Superman is not hero because hero would try to save people he sees are endangered. To make him work as intended writers would really need to nerf Superman's powers, especially his perception. Until that happens he's just selfish asshole that plays superhero as a hobby.
Michael Rogers
Well Superman also has plenty of writers who do that differently Some even use him as a villain because of exactly what you said.
Superman doesn't really look down on humans like it seems he does.
By that logic you should be at your job 24/7 because you know work isn't being done there. Man user you're so selfish being here on the computer
Henry Brown
>By that logic you should be at your job 24/7 because you know work isn't being done there. Yeah making his boss money is the same as saving lives. You are right.

Gabriel Sanchez
you just described why these user hate deku
Mason Myers
Yeah, I don't dislike Deku but all of these things bother me about his character. Basically he was just dreaming about becoming a hero while doing the bare minimum to achieve it (taking notes) before getting handed the best quirk ever.

Christian Ross
Nastu its not even that bad, Hitman reborn' mc is even worse than deku desu
Jack Hill
Deku's flaws are only ever a factor for fans rather than the story itself. He stopped being a character a little after his fight with Bakugou, and became a passive entity that stumbles into each conflict for him to clean up.
Grayson Perry
He's a shit MC in a shit series.
Carter Clark
How are Deku's flaws not important in the story? Overcoming his weaknesses is what drives him forward.
Jacob Reyes
Even with super hearing, Superman couldn't possibly hear a bullet being shot a few cities away and fly quickly enough to stop the bullet, because the sound of the bullet wouldn't reach him before the bullet hit its target. Superman is not as unlimited as people that doesn't know shit about him assume, and in every alternate reality where he tries to fix absolutely everything he either fails or things get more fucked up as a result.

Pay attention to the fucking story and learn a little something about depression.

Isn't that the one with Bakugo screaming about erasing every trace of Deku out of her and her loving Deku? With Deku sitting in the hospital. That is at least some cuckolding

Camden Robinson
Depends who is writing him. I agree that Superman should have limits like you said as they would serve to explain why he isn't constantly saving someone. Problem is that modern Superman is written to be able to do ridiculous bullshit like distinguish bullet sounds across United States and be able to race Flash etc. When he has all of those those powers to save people the solution is to either retcon a bunch of them to make his existing portrayal sensible or play a different angle where Superman's central character conflict is dealing with his guilt about whether or not he's doing enough when he just wants to be everyday joy but his sense of responsibility does not let him.
tl:dr: Superman's writing is shit, news at 11
Hunter King
hxh was like that for me, the fans had be convinced it was this amazing masterpiece only for it to be another medicore shonen about some stupid preteen kid who loves fighting. Yeah never seen that before

Colton Ward
Maybe (You) should learn a bit about depression and what it actually means? Just being sad doesn't equal depression, it's a mental illness that affect your brain and requires medicine and doctors' help. It's not about upset unconfident teenagers, you fuck
Luis Davis
Holy crap, this. Literally me. HxH sucked so badly after all the overhype I got I thought it was some kind of joke at first The last like hundred of chapters of Naruto 2bh. And lots of others. MHA isn't even unique at that
Jacob Bailey
I'm convinced it's a running gag and most of the fans are either too retarded to realize people are fucking with them or are so desperate for attention they don't care and go along with it.
Like the class clown in school who acted like a retard and even though most people were taking the piss at him he still did it because at least he's being noticed
Noah Hall
The problem is that hunterfags don't write all the pastas. They just take what is unironically written on reddit. And Youtube fans are the same. Yea Forums is trolling and mocking this indeed, but that's only because people outside it actually think so

Parker Jones
Reminder that all of Deku's upcoming fights will be won through revealing a new asspull quirk
Luke Russell
called it
Austin Adams
Oh shit man you can see the future?! That's so neat dude! I could've sworn the whip shit going haywire because he started getting pissed and nearly harming his classmates was a sign they're only going to be a huge detriment until he gets gud enough to control them but hey you're the psychic here.
Andrew Rivera
>Depression is what I define it is to fit my narrative
I don't even think Deku had depression, he's just a bullied kid with crushed dreams in an unfair society, but god I hate when people say shit like this.
Thomas Barnes
He's a flawed MC, but that's not a bad thing. Judging him for how he was during chapter 1 kinda shits on the fact that he realized that carrying the burden of AllMight it's not just a game, and instead of indulging in power-trips he's actually trying to step up to the responsability, he hasn't even considered taking revenge on his bully, that's very mature. Also, I think you're being really unfair to a kid that got bullied for basically being disabled since he was a kid.
Isaiah Brown
Well, being bullied since childhood and lacking something that most other people has is a sure recipe to develop deppression, or some similar problem. I think that calling him deppressed is too much, but at the very least he's going to be a mess and will lack any kind of confidence that one could develop as a kid, since he has been always told that he would fail at anything, and has always been stomped on the head when he tried to do something (like jumping to the river to help Bakugo, or even writing on a fucking book). Even his mother acted like lacking a quirk was a giant tragedy, though I don't blame the mom, I love the character and it's very humane to not know how to react when you get told that your child will have a condition like that. Imagine having a kid that likes watching soccer and one day the doctor tells you that he has weak bones that will crush under their own weight if he runs too much.
Brandon Carter
I'm not sure if you are agreeing with me or not
Noah Rodriguez
He's a kid, genius.
Christopher Gray
Its imposter syndrome Not depression
He can be way too happy and even way too sad for depression
Colton Phillips
Same here. I liked to enough, but everyone treats it like it's god's gift to shounen manga and anime. It's not, it's pretty fucking standard. In fact I would say I would've liked it better had it not been so hyped up. I feel like people hold it in a higher rearguard than it deserves because it's also always on hiatus, like that makes it more important somehow. At least with BnHA I know to expect a simple fun generic action shounen with occasional high school shenanigans, so I can hold my expectations appropriately. For that, I'm enjoying it more than I did HxH.
Cooper Reed
but how could he scream out gay moves at his enemies then? Thats more important.
Christopher Wilson
all the people with quirks have gay moves.
Alexander Wilson
It's just trading cliches.
Chase Martinez
That isn't what they are saying, what they are saying is that Superman is given too much power and a totally selfless attitude so he makes for an awkward character to write and read about.
Robert Harris
One thing that will never change for Deku is his lust for sucking his bully's cock and praising him for his rich cum and begging to be humiliated by him in public. Its the story of a super cuck.
Cameron Adams
It's only awkward if you dont understand Superman also wants to be a real person and doesn't want to/know he cant solve every problem in the world.
Camden Martin
>Superman is given too much power and a totally selfless attitude so he makes for an awkward character to write and read about They haven't read a good superman comic if they actually believe this
Brayden Diaz
So...Batman?
Nathaniel Evans
OP is a faggot.
Justin Lopez
What is this cuckshit? Where did it come from? Deku straight up admits he can't stand Bakugou and his shitty personality and tells him to fuck off whenever Bakugou actually tries to bully him like back then. He just has enough awareness to realize there are aspects of Bakugou he wishes he had - his talent, natural battle prowess, confidence, his ability to keep on fighting when he knows he's going to lose or when he's scared. He's not just blindly worshipping him he's just doing what he's been characterized to do: idolize and try to take on aspects he admires of others unto himself and try to apply them. Bakugous is just the most prevalent because like Deku said he was just the person closest to him where he could reach and see consistenly before All Might came along into his life.
Jordan Cox
> Everytime Supes is larping as human reporter at Daily Planet he's making conscious decision to leave thousands of people he knows are in danger & he could save for death. Clark is a person and is somehow better written then deku. You view superman as an ideal but not the character himself. We already have injustice to show what it would be like if Clark went superman 24/7 and forced his "protection" on earth.
Eli Garcia
The point of the Yakuza arc was that Mirio wasn't the next Cymbal of Piece, he needed to change his mindset completely. He got that by the end of the arc but until that point he couldn't be All Might.

Andrew Nelson
>Also why didn't get work out at all? Kacchan was a prodigy with an amazing quirk but he still built more muscle on his body than Deku. He worked harder than Deku who just took a bunch of notes?
I know it's bait but this bugs me. Nowhere does it say Bakugou trained his ass off before getting into UA. He was naturally talented and confrontational and cocky. He's been getting into fights with other kids since he was 4, and was already very much an athletic kid considering his hobby is stated to be mountain climbing. If anything him not working as hard is why he ends up so disillusioned after his first fight with Deku and seeing Todoroki use his quirk. He doesn't even look particularly muscular when we first see him and he's pretty much powerless against the slime guy. Deku, on the other hand, has been the one losing fights since he was 4. He has no quirk in a society that prizes having a quirk and has been told how useless he is because of it. All it took was having a clear goal and motivation and BAM, he trained like a madman for 10 months and has continued to train constantly since.
user. Deku never ever not once believed that he could really be a hero. He never tried to build muscle and use any of that knowledge to help people or make himself into a hero or at least be a part of the hero world in some small way. And like you said, he never even considered being a cop, or fireman, or doctor.
Deku was a suicidally depressed bullied child who's hopes for being a hero were his escape. Deku isn't the MC of a hero's story. He's litterally the embodiment of the typical shounen/comic/cartoon/anime/iskai reading kid. Someone who honestly has no hope or belief in themselves and lives their lives in a fantasy. Deku never, not once, ever believed in himself. That he could be a hero. He knew that he has no hope of ever being a hero.
Almight lied to the kid. He himself was a quirkless hero and he knows damned well that quirks don't make the hero. What Almight did when he told him to become a police officer or a fireman, to follow those noble men and women, was him attempting to save the kids life and put him on the right track.
He saw directly through that weak cowardly beaten down puppy of a kid. He tried to tell him to give up on his fantasy, a fantasy that you could tell was his way of coping with his life, and become a hero who can help people even without powers. Like his friends, the respected police firemen and doctors.
It shattered his "dreams" but it was the slap in the face that he needed. He, if Bakugo didn't fuck up and get taken over, would have probably become the greatest beat cop then detective the city had ever seen. Leading many quirked and quirkless persons in blue against high level quirked villains and taking them down, Hell he might even has it in him to become a doctor of great renown.
But. Deku saw his friend in danger and did what he needed to do. He ran towards the danger and fought with his knowledge to save the person who made his life a fucking hell on earth because it was the right thing to do.
Jack Morales
>Bakugo didn't train his ass off, he just got ripped from enjoying athletic hobbies!
Bakugo's grenade gauntlets almost dislocated Deku's shoulder. Bakugo > Deku.
John Hernandez
Injustice is just stupid bullshit you silly child. Superman, no, no comic character has a set personality. They are a grab bag of storylines all tied together by what is currently considered marketable to an audience.
Brandon Turner
Well sure, by that point it was midterms. He trains just as hard as Deku now. What we don't know is how hard he trained prior to getting into school. The first fight had Deku go toe to toe with him for the most part without even using his quirk. Even Bakugou realized if Deku was actually able to use his quirk in the fight, he would have lost, hence his panic attack.
consider this, kirishima trained in the same period of time as deku and nobody complains about that. I would not be surprised if all students a year before entering UA trained in the same way
Levi Garcia
'Good' Superman stories are the ones that either weaken him significantly or totally change his character in a large way. None of them are better than The Metropolitan Man so it doesn't matter anyhow.
Eli Long
Yea, its dumb. Especially when its shown that the normal professions do a lot of the heavy lifting.
Christian Russell
As a matter of fact, If not for Allmight dashing his hopes of becoming a hero. He might have not helped Bakugo, He might have just stood by and waited like everyone else.
But him telling him to give up on his fantasy and become a hero like a cop or something snapped him out of his fantasy. It made the reality of things real to him.
Allmight by crushing his dreams so brutally in hopes of saving his life, in fact, inspired that kid to stop living in a fantasy and to FIGHT for the first time in his life. He was terrified but he put all of his knowledge everything he knew about being a hero into saving someone from his school.
For the first time in Toshinori's life, he truly inspired someone not with his fantasy hero persona, but with his true words and face. And for the first time in Deku's life. He tried to save someone earnestly, to truly be a hero and not just pretend at one to cope with the pain of his life.
Allmight came to Deku not as the shining symbol of peace that he showed to the rest of the world. But as himself.
Caleb King
At this point I think its just some AI made by chinks or the feds that make these threads and reply in them and use this place for testing and further developing of the code.
Henry Phillips
>Superman, no, no comic character has a set personality. kek quit typing like a faggot. A story has characters, and good charcters are written with personality, simple as that. If you dont get something as simple as capeshit stories then you're a lost cause.
Lucas Robinson
All Might didn't lie to Deku, he was right. Look at All Might, he's some kind of Pagan God of Justice and even he was almost killed. Endeavor is the hardest working character in the series, while being born with a fantastic quirk, and he was almost killed. Aizawa had a Quirk that saved him from almost every overpowered Villain in the series and he was almost pancaked. Being a hero is incredibly dangerous even for the best of the best, someone like Deku was almost committing suicide by pursuing it. All Might did the total right thing by telling Deku to be a Cop of Firefighter or etc.
Kayden Bell
Superman from 30 years ago is very different from the superman today. Even his powers and costume are different.
It's an icon with a few set things about it and a fuckton of stories to mine. That's all. Superman is not a character. It's a vague idea wrapped in a set of loose design ideas.
Eli Stewart
Did this nigga say that to any of the other children? No? Being a cop is just as dangerous. Espescially in a world where every other person can rip a building in half with their bare hands or punch cars across the city with a thought.
Jordan Kelly
There are good superman stories where he isn't depowered or turned into an evil all powerful alien. His main draw has always been that even though he's a physical god, he doesn't act like he's above everything and he wants to be the same as the people that accepted him. The best superman stories always acknowledged that, it doesn't take deconstruction to make him compelling.
Kayden Powell
Actually, I think you're right about that. It 's a reasonable assumption to make. I still think it's unfair to chastise Deku for not being a total gym rat prior to meeting All Might, considering his own circumstances and the time all those events take place had them only just considering the application basically that same week.
Why didn't he become a hero assistant, providing knowledge/building shit like the bros in the support class?
Caleb Price
I don't know if it says it outright, but I think you still need to apply to the school and even if you don't pass the exam, you can still get into the general courses.
Isaac Hernandez
>morally obligated to be the Man of Tomorrow Neither did Superman though. I admit that I'm not a huge comic fan but as far as I'm aware he basically fights supervillains. He doesn't actually do anything beside protecting the status quo from monsters.
Elijah Anderson
A third of the world is quirkless. Deku isn't even a special snowflake for not having one
Jackson Diaz
That's part of what makes being quirkless a sad thing though. It's not a special thing that people are going like "wow" if you don't have one. It's literally like being disabled in their universe. Deku can't do something that comes naturally to the majority of people and that limits their options in life. So he doesn't get special treatment for not having one, nor does he get treated with the same respect everyone else.
And I'm sure Hori isn't really accounting for it might not be generationally uniform so Quirklessness becomes less prominent the younger you are so Deku is an even greater minority in his own generation.
Ryder Walker
if you think about it, homosapiens is in danger of extinction
Ayden Ross
One fifth.
Jacob Davis
>he doesn't act like he's above everything and he wants to be the same as the people that accepted him. The best superman stories always acknowledged that, it doesn't take deconstruction to make him compelling.
Actually it;s about him being a good guy and saving the day by punching people or just saying something nice and inspiring to people. That's about it.
After that, his most well liked stories are Superman going SUPERMAN DA STRONGEST ONE DERE IS!!! like a discount hulk.
Jackson Baker
80% of the population has quirks. Most of the policemen, firemen, and doctors are just people with quirks who didn’t become heroes. Heroes are seen as the cream of the crop in society so of course Deku wanted to be one. If you’re quirkless you might as well kill yourself.
Ryan Green

What a piece of shit MC.
Easton Campbell
Mirio should've gotten OfA and he should've been the main character and Deku should've been a side character that made gadgets and fucked Mei, every one other than class 1-a and a few other characters is really interesting and LoV is becoming kino but pretty soon Deku will be back to ruin it
Parker White
Do you even know HOW Batman got to be so strong and powerful despite not having superpowers? Hint, it's not by being an average orphan with no expendable income hanging out at the gym after school.
Deku and mha as a whole is an insult to everything a real hero stands for. If you want to help people for fanny, fame, and cool costumes and give up your passion just because you can't shoot fireballs from your hands you are no hero, nor are you truly passionate about said subject.

Okay first of all, Deku isn't a pro-hero yet and can and will get into SERIOUS trouble if he tries to act like one outside of various situation like they nearly did in the Stain arc. And secondly, the top pro heroes are highly-trained and qualified professionals who work WITH the law utilizing their quirks in efficient ways to ensure the least amount of damage and victims which is what makes them as popular as they are in the first place as opposed to vigilantes who are more liable to fuck things up for everyone and don't have to answer for the potential damage they cause as opposed to pros who are held extremely accountable for pretty much everything they do. Vigilantes only seem better cause they have less accountability and far less to lose and therefore more freedom to act however they want to regardless if it interferes with cases or larger scale efforts.

Let's hope that new continuation makes Nisei non-canon and retcons it out of existence
Adam Sanders
Then couldn't they just have All Might be batman and take Deku under his wing like Robin? The story just wants to say "Hero society good, get a quirk, sucks to be quirkless". basically.
Connor Martin
Except Deku had it in him to help people even without a quirk and it's been proven multiple times throughout the story he genuinely wants to help people even if he doesn't get recognition for his actions. Also your entire criticism falls apart when of you paid attention you would know the main crux of MHA's growing conflict is ABOUT critiquing the hypocrisy that festers in hero society and every characters development has them moving towards becoming the genuine definition of what a hero should be.
>tl;dr read slower
Charles Brooks
LoV are small time, so small time that students can take them. The fact heroes haven't dealt with them is just stupid and makes me doubt the credibility of the Hero Association.
Owen Garcia
>Actually it;s about him being a good guy and saving the day by punching people or just saying something nice and inspiring to people. Aka every superhero story to ever exist. >After that, his most well liked stories are Superman going SUPERMAN DA STRONGEST ONE DERE IS!!! like a discount hulk. Almost every DC hero is power wanked beyond reason why is this a problem Wasted dubs, deku was close to giving up after a life time of bulling and insecurity.
Dominic Turner
>critiquing the hypocrisy that festers in hero society What hypocrisy? Being a hero in this world is a job you have to be born to do. The fact people think otherwise is because they're fucking idiots. That has always been the reality in this world.
Dominic Hughes
I think Deku has been written into a corner and Hori likely doesn't have the skill to make him break out of his cookiecutter destiny. At best he will turn into a true shonen jump hero clone. I guess the positive thing is that more interesting things can begin happening with shiggy, which will make the majority of the audience root for him.
Ayden Young
Why the fuck do you want Deku and All Might to be shitty Batman and Robin knockoffs so bad? The story isnt about stacking up to people with powers despite having none you brainlet. Not every story with a formely powerless MC has to be some Rock Lee underdog tale to have a message. Stop villifying stories for not hitting targets it wasn't even aiming for to begin with.
Elijah Ramirez
This. Pro Heroes are basically just a glorified swat team or detectives. They exist to do the hard stuff that the other humans in society can't do without a license, but they are still liable for any casualties and damages they face. They have limitations and aren't above the law. All the heroes do is wrangle the villain so that the police can arrest them. Just look at the way they handled Kimino. All Might didn't just rush in alone to get Bakugou back. He worked with other Pros and the Police force.
Not the same user, I was just saying All Might could be Batman and Deku Robin instead. I'm not even villifying the story. I just don't like it personally. You can like it, but making the hero powerless and then giving him powers seems pointless. It in fact serves little purpose from what I see.
Ryan Campbell
But the story doesn't want to say that at all. Hero Society is pretty clearly not good
Anthony Watson
You're forgetting that the pro-heroes pushed their shit in and quickly at that when they found out where they were hiding out. it wasn't until AfO bailed the Lov out and they went into hiding again that they now got their shit together and are finally becoming a very real threat.
Nolan Nguyen
I mean hypocrisy in regards to those who do it for fame, money, titles etc etc as opposed to those who genuinely want to save others and defeat people who use powers for ill.
Levi Hernandez
Sure, but the issues are so small they fix themselves. Just look at Endeavor.
Benjamin Allen
The point seems pretty obvious, Deku being quirkless makes him total fresh slate. He has to build that power and confidence after coming from a place of never having it and can easily compare/contrast to AllMight since he has the physical capability to be a perfect copy but being his own person he'll mentally diverge. Not to mention being quirkless would mean showing up Hero Society and changing it out of necessity for their own gain, having a quirk and changing it would be done so because Deku clearly sees there's something wrong with it despite now having the ability to thrive.
Luke Sullivan
If they were swat, they'd use lethal force. That just means the pro-heroes are idiots that can't find villains that are so obvious in their attacks. How many times do they have to attack the school until the heroes realize a pattern?
>Not to mention being quirkless would mean showing up Hero Society and changing it out of necessity for their own gain Ok logic, but there is a certain amount of selfishness when trying to help people who you can relate to. It's also not inherently wrong to be selfish.
Christopher Fisher
Dissatisfaction and unrest are still clearly growing in AllMight's absence. Endeavor's problems are only realized by him not fixed and even then he's still trying to be AllMight when that was only a band aid to society's ills.
Chase Johnson
I'm just wondering how overpowered Ochako's quirk could be. Seems like she could fucking murder anyone instantly by making contact with them. Or maybe without even needing to do that, just crushing them by intensifying gravity.
Jonathan Cruz
Are you sure the story isn't going for Deku being the next All Might? I feel like that's the point of the story stating it's about him being the #1 hero and him being the protag. Seems likely to me.
Benjamin Ross
Batman doesn't live in a world where 80% of the population has superpowers.
Austin Butler
Nah it's pretty obvious he's already realizing he needs his own kind of hero, albeit very slowly, and that he can't be a carbon copy of AllMight
Josiah Evans
cause underdogs are true heros who wants to watch a character be called a hero and get handed everything on a plater a true hero works hard for him self his goal and others
Noah Jones
Knuckle Duster does, same shit.
Oliver Campbell
yes he dose people in DC world even make them selfs have powers and the ones who are powerless use their brains building super wepones
Nolan Morgan
Not a 100% copy, but it feels like Deku embodying similar things to All Might as the #1 hero is the whole point of him being chosen and thus how he will inspire the world to change.
Kevin Powell
You make a good point. However, is Captain America not a hero?
Jayden Wood
>ITT: I hate how an anime doesn't abide by my standard Marvel/DC comic book logic and universe laws even though the series goes out of it's way to tell you it's not supposed to and that those superheroes stories in their world is also just stories.
But in a wholly different sense than All Might who sought to take the world's burden upon himself. Deku will most likely prove the opposite and being the greatest hero will be a reflection on what he showed the world rather than being the number one in the hero ranks.
Lucas Williams
captain america was already a hero even tho he was weak he still insited on joing the force to save lives he didnt care if he died and he never beg'ed to be a superhero he work with what he was delt with

>noooooo omg someone is talking bad about My hero ahhhhhh my anxiety is off the roof oh my god i need to vent omg omg how can you sit there and talk ahit about deku he is literally me kmg
Eh my self insert is mineta due to how realistic his goal is. He's a shitty weak incel who, instead of deciding to rebuke the very world thats against him, realized that the only way for an ugly manlet like him to get mad pussy is to get mad status, and as such he made the most logical play and decided to become a hero. Unlike Deku (who doesn't really care about helping others altruistically, i mean i've never seen the little shit even do any sort of community service like Koichi).
Christopher Gray
>Implying Deku wouldn't have done the same after someone finally told him for once he was capable of being a hero instead of shitting on him for even trying or wanting to help.
I get what you're saying but Cap on the other hand had people encouraging him nearly every step of the way even with the occasional roadbump and he ASKED for the serum. Deku had the entire world against him at the start and even his own mother gave up on him and ate her weight in guilt her son was a handicapped freak with no hope. Deku also didn't ask for OFA or beg. He just wanted someone anyone to believe in him just one fucking person and the fact it was his hero meant the world to him The promise of OFA came after and All Might straight up told Deku if he didnt work for it or if he decided he saw something in Deku he didnt approve of he wouldn't let him inherit it.

Slime guy took him off guard tho, but he definitely has put in more effort into his body than Decuck, who could hardly manage to do a push up a 14. Also the fact that he is about as smart as Decuck too, and comes up with all his moves with little to no help or supervision shows just how much more he effort he puts in than Decuck.
Logan Ramirez

Jason Diaz
>no deku could of found new friends, deku could of joind a team or deku could of become a police man a firefighter a teacher a doctor but no like a stubbon kid he cryed till he got hes toy
Y-you aren't seriously buying OP's bait are you? The entire fucking class laughed their asses off at him for even thinking about taking the UA exam. The kids in his Kindergarten were real quick to call him a loser for not having a quirk and the adults did nothing but pity him. The neighboorhood kids all followed Bakugou and bullied him too. The media glorifies the Heroes and ignores the quirkless. How are going to pretend you understand a character and his motivation when you failed to pay attention to the world they built around him?
Levi Kelly
Look at Momma and Papa Bear's "fuck me" eyes. I wouldn't be surprised he got her more pregnant while she was pregnant.
Easton Thompson
Everyone shat on deku. He had no hope of making any friends whatsoever. It's telling when he gets to UA he's freaked out people are actually treating him like a human being for once. And what team? The olympics died out due to you know 80% of population having super powers making everything not revolving around them pretty much pointless. They tell us that during the sports fest. And there's still people with quirks as firefighters and policeman it'd still be difficult for him and again he would have gone for that after All Might crushed his dreams on the rooftop. He didnt cry and whine he just clung to a dream. He cried about not having a power once when he was FOUR and learning how cruel reality was with Kacchan and his possee beating the shit out of him for trying to defend someone else despite having no power. Not saying Deku is an angel he WAS envious and he admitted it, but now he's actually got a chance to be what he wants to be(though he doesnt feel deserving of it) and is trying to let go of that abd be not only a hero worthy of All Mights decision but a better person all around. He's nowhere near as entitled and whiny as you're making him out to be.
Ethan Robinson
You didn't even have to use Batman as an example you could've used people from the story who either have no quirk or have a quirk that isn't suited to combat. Knuckle Duster is a great example of what a quirkless person can accomplish, oh an before anyone says "h-he could never beat AfO" literally no other hero but All Might could even potentially beat AfO, hell 90% of the heroes that exist are practically jobbers, with 9% of them being decent, and only All Might being worth anything. On the side of non combat enhancing quirks would be Stain, who could fucking wall jump, and as far as i know his quirk had nothing to do with that. Hell even a poison tipped dagger would be more useful than his shitty quirk, and you're supposed to tell me that a regular person is fucking useless without a quirk when 25 heroes lost, no i mean fucking died to person whose quirk is so unconventional that it may as well no t be used.

Bakugou is smart too and takes the fighting/powers part of being a hero seriously. He has even learned to start caring about saving people. Bakugou is like Endeavor in that the reason people like him is he has a clear drive from the get go and doesn't take crap from others while improving himself to reach his goal. He lives his life the way he wants but slowly realizes other people live in the world too. That's admirable. Deku really just cries too much. If he stopped being weak personality wise, people would like him more. I guarantee it. Might be too late now though.
Austin Jones
Knuckle Duster is also a grown ass man, ex-hero, and popping pills to keep his body running. >Poison tipped dagger more useful than a quirk that immediately immobilizes someone at your command Nah. Stain was as successful as he was because his tactics were totally based around his quirk.
Caleb Perry
yeah your right
Jonathan Howard
people didn't hate him. Bakugou did. The rest just viewed him as a joke and 2nd class subhuman. And for reasons understandable to the society and enviroment they live in. It's actually good writing, exaggerated a bit, but good for getting the point across that Deku's situation wasn't fair. I do wish he had at least one friend who encouraged him but the impact of All Might telling him he could be a hero might lose some of it's weight.
Kayden Howard
Considering how you can't even be arsed to write one grammatically correct sentence, I don't think anyone thought you would be the go-to person to ask about shit writing anyway.
>if a character is forced to do a spcific role in a story thats a backgrond character not an mc
Yup the real MC of this manga is CHADKugou >Born with perfect mix of relatively shitty genetics >Has lots of confidence and as such lots of friends >Takes on mentally and physically challenging hobbies like rock climbing to strengthen his body >Despite being some what of a delinquent always puts in the effort to keep his mind a peak capacity >Even with being a gifted a great quirk, he doesn't coast on that and tries to constantly improve it >Even when he goes to a shitty internship that didn't teach him anything and actually put him behind where he would've had he simply not gone he doesn't let that stop him >Has multiple named moves even before having to be told this by his teacher(who is obviously dumber and jealous of him) >And has never cucked to a single person, even his all time favorite hero(unlike a certain crybaby)
Samuel Phillips
>would be Stain, who could fucking wall jump Seriously. People look at Bakugou whose sweat explodes and say "top tier quirk right there" in universe and people don't realize it's not the quirk, but the individual. Every single hero has superhuman durability, speed, intelligence, and strength even if their quirk doesn't cover any of that, yet people keep wondering what a normal person could do with the right technology. Only AfO and OfA are the quirks that are broken since they are multiple quirks. Every other quirk has so many drawbacks it's incredible that these people can use them well at all.
Jack Wright

Jonathan Wilson
Im sure he could find some instant nerve paralyzing agent (especially in a world where giant mechs and other advance technology exist). Also his quirk is inconsistent as if someone has , I believe, O-Type blood the paralyzation lasts much shorter. What really made him so successful was his physical training, and his hunting style of luring prey into narrow alleyways or other secluded areas.
Its why even though i find Deku abrasive I could never hate him, he puts in a shit ton of effort into his dream, and even when gifted never saw that as an excuse to just rely on his natural talent. It honestly makes me wondered if Bakugou would've actually respected Deku had Deku worked harder and stopped being a pussy when he was kid.
Xavier Price
It means you aren't someone whose opinion on writing I trust since you can't even properly read.
>universe where people with powers saving people are glorified >where this shit is supported and funded by so many other industries >idolises some swole westabo >being Emergency services That's fucking hilarious
Oliver Harris
Paralyzing agent would probably give away what he was doing but without it he has an element of surprise and total control. >It honestly makes me wondered if Bakugou would've actually respected Deku had Deku worked harder and stopped being a pussy when he was kid. No, Bakugo respected nobody, specifically because as a toddler he decided he was the best and Deku was the worst and nothing contradicted his ego. Deku trying harder would've just made him hate him more.
William Baker
>Has no social skills, yet had more friends than Dekuck, and even at U.A. gets more friends because he doesn't hide who he is like a cuck >Gets based genes, yet still tries to do even better because he knows putting the effort makes all the difference >Pretends to not care because he doesn't give two shits about social standing like a certain cuck, also wanting to be rich is Ochunko's dream >Gets reasonably angry when the whiny bitch boy gets a free gibme that automatically makes him stronger than 99% of the population >Sorry he's not a chad he's a mega chad
Ryder Jones
>makes me wondered if Bakugou would've actually respected Deku had Deku worked harder and stopped being a pussy when he was kid. Probably. He respect Kirishima and he's similar to Deku. Kirishima is just willing to speak his mind openly without letting his own inadequacies stop him. Deku still has trouble with that.
Ian Gray
and clearly your not a scientist cause if you were you would know there are diffrent types of dyslexia type1. bad spelling type2. bad spelling and reading type3. illiterate
Because deku kinda fucking sucks and everytime he and bakugou are not the center of the story the quality just shoots up dramatically
Asher Price
Chucklefucks still bitched about the villains or endeavor though
Noah Barnes
Yup if AfO and OfA are put out of the equation, even a quirkless person, provided they put in the effort and has something to augment them tech wise(which even quirk users have) then they could definitely take down at least 90% of the quirk users shown so far.
Jaxson Ward
this user just owend your dumb ass how you gonna tell some one they carnt have an opinion when you dont even have basic logic
Leo Richardson
With your reading comprehension, you could have fooled me.
Real easy to do that when you have the power to not get fucking annihilated on the spot. Deku didn't have jack shit and got traumatized by all the beatings and berating he got from Bakugou after years and still had the guts to tell him to fuck off when he tried to threaten him into not going into UA
Henry Roberts
I mean, he dedicates his life to being a hero because he admires All Might. There was always some altruism in Bakugou. In fact, his intense hatred of Deku is abnormal.
Luis Wilson
what if he carnt write well not every one is from burgerland spaz
Are the other kids quirkless? That is the difference. Deku is like a kid with a muscular disorder that is begging to be a football player. He just can't do it realistically. Being a cop is different, they rely of the Heroes for the big jobs, the small stuff is the Cop's deal.
Jeremiah Richardson
It seems that Quirklessness is something that is rarer and rarer each generation, given that the whole 'singularity' idea is a big part of the story.
Sebastian Ward
user, Allmight's side kick was a bookworm with the ability to look into someone's future an hour or so.
There are fucktons of people out there with shitty fucking quirks that just should do "normie" work and not try to be a hero. But he says fuck all to them.
There are tons of kids with shit quirks who try hard to make it and succeed oft inspite of their quirks.
Toshi himself had no quirks and through sheer balls and hardwork became an actual force to be reckoned with. As for the small stuff. Heroes can't be everywhere and there are only a handful of heroe's in the entire nation that can be considered "big shit handlers". What are shitty quirked and quirkless cops going to do?
Get murdered! Exactlhy!!
Allmight tried to save a troubled kids life by telling him that he shold give up on his fantasy and become a police officer or fireman or doctor. Heroes who don't rely on quirks and have centuries of training and infrastructure in place for people to draw from.
Levi Barnes
He cant wear his All-Might rip-off costume as a policeman tho.
Logan Ramirez
The series doesn't really analyze that. Nighteye, Stain, Toga and in a minor level Aizawa are totally capable of heroism and villainy in situations where they might as well be quirkless (Aizawa's quirk helps him because everybody is utterly dependent on their quirks, but against a mutant he might as well be quirkless and still holds his own).
Jack Turner
Bakugou bullied him and he was the class leader, everybody followed his suit.
Juan Hill

>So policemen, firemen, doctors, etc people who save lives every day aren't heros to Deku isn't it a plot point that EVERYONE but him was born with some sort of power? So anyone that would be a policemen, firemen, doctors, would have super powers too. If he became one of those professions he would still be the only one without a power that would help him in his job
Grayson Hill
>quirkless kid on top of a building about to jump because he will never be a hero >The number 2 hero ass blaster shows up to save the day >he screams at the kid to stop being a pussy and to do a flip

Jacob Young
Suck my cock first
Blake Peterson
Kek Also look at deku's face, i've seen that shitty face before. Thats the face a cuck in anguish and finally having a sliver of self realization, but is too much of a cuck to do anything. I bet you he just stared at the ground before walking away sobbing like the pussy he is
Zachary Howard
>ehhhh wats up doc
Thomas Reyes
>The number 2 hero ass blaster shows up to save the day I'm laughing. This is too good. Honestly though, Deku not standing up to him here is just worse for both of them.

Not that user but 10 years of getting his ass kicked he figured out literally ONE of Bakugo's moves and Bakugo immediately caught on and changed things up because he's actually got battle smarts and trained himself mentally for years instead of writing useless notebooks.
Cooper Bennett
Policemen, firemen, and doctors aren't allowed to use their quirks.
Jackson King
Nearly everyone in class A jobs to Bakugou save for Todoroki and they still shit on him, especially frog girl.
Nathaniel Murphy
It's been so long since Deku had his hood up. I forgot how bad it looks. His mask looks even dumber than his face, and that's an accomplishment.
Bentley Morales
This. Everyone treats Bakugou like a living joke because he is. He's amazing at everything, but it's impossible to take him seriously with his personality. Deku is just too traumatized from a decade of bullying to step back and realize that Bakugou is a sperg who doesn't deserve to be dignified by being feared.
John Hughes
>Deku is just too traumatized from a decade of bullying
Deku should've stopped being bitch years ago, or at the very least when Bakugou dumped his YEARS of study(if you can really call it that) into that pond(?). He should've stood up for himself right then and there, and have some self respect.
Tyler Garcia
All things considered, Deku likely has tried to stand up for himself before but literally got btfo by Bakugou enough times to have the will or guts to anymore. Outside from him defending someone else from Bakugous bullying, Deku just doesn't seem like he's got the will to put himself through that if he doesnt have to. It's pathetic but at this point in the story Deku is supposed to be at his most pathetic.
Carson Russell
Yeah He's a dick
Jason Baker
See a lot of you guys want Deku to be Batman or Robin. But i think he should be like Captain America if anything. Right now hes like the worst qualities of shonen hero and mcu spiderman. Imagine if he actually stood up consistently to Bakugou and the hatred on Bakugou's side was in part because even with his power he couldn't get Deku to submit to his will. Imagine instead of giving up on his dreams so easily he planted his feet in stubborn that he will prevail. Imagine if instead of having 7 overpowered quirks he was granted just one that he in theory would make him the second weakest on a team but he is so good he's the most valuable one there Also OfA is a great concept imo but it wasn't executed to it's fullest potential. I think something like Avatar meets Naruto would be better.
He's getting there. I wish he'd be a little less amicable about it, but with his development he's obviously emulating All Might's positive attitude more and taking Bakugou less and less seriously and more of someone he can use as his personal measuring stick for his progress. He wants him to get better, so he can get even better than him and beat the shit out of him at his best with the biggest smile on his face. Screencap this.
I can get behind everything power-wise, really. I preferred if Deku just focused on just mastering and applying All for One's super strength in progressively more interesting and efficient ways to make up for his shortcomings personally. Everything else though would basically a perfect, virtuous paragon who never doubts himself which isn't what Deku's arc is about. It's about someone working their way up to be that paragon rather than starting at it. He'd basically be Jonathan Joestar or Asta which, lets face it, would be a tad unrealistic considering the circumstances he grew up with.

Landon Walker
Are there even ordinary firemen and police in Hero Academia anymore? Surely those orginzations would have quirk corps such as a pyrokinetic who can smother flames. Police would need quirks as a matter of course due to the fact that villains have completely overshadowed mundane criminal organizations, whether by getting out-muscled by a squad of villains or being hostilely taken over by a singular villain commander.
Remember it's not like some superhero fiction where heroes are still 1% of the world, 80% of people have quirks.
Adrian Long

Hunter Cox
there are cops and firemen who have quirks and those who dont if you read the vigilantes manga only a hand full of cops have quirks managing a full city
Jacob Morgan
>nigger if you wanna stop geting picked on call for help This is an even bigger bitch move and only would have made shit worse. Bakugou knows where Deku lives and regularly makes his life a living hell in and out of school. Who's he going to call for help? His mom who can't protect him at school? His teacher who (doesn't do shit about the blatant bullying in class) and cant protect him at home? Bakugou would probably tell the rest of the class about it too and that's just one more thing for them to laugh at him about. Not only is this is a bad idea it's the worst idea.
source: Kid I used to fuck with did this once and we fucked him up for the rest of high school, I feel bad for it now but at the time it felt more like it was his fault for provoking us so as a former bully I can't stress enough this is a bad idea.
fighting back is a mixed bag. maybe he'd get respect but considering how Bakugou reacts when Deku even breathes in his general direction I doubt this would go well for Deku.

Saitama's better because there's no sob story about the world being unfair to him for not giving him what he wants by birthright, it's on him to achieve his dream and he finally mans up and goes for it.
Logan James
>Most of the policemen, firemen, and doctors are just people with quirks who didn’t become heroes. So they are in occupations where quirks aren't necessarily important at all. So anyone could live a perfectly good life without one. But how awful it would be to not be a celebrity!
Tyler Turner
Deku just wanted to be a hero. He didn't want a quirk, he just wanted to be a hero. Never once does he say I want a quirk he just wants to know if he can save people with a smile like his childhood hero did. He never bitches and moans about birthright or how unfair the world is towards him, he cries one time about it when he was fucking four. When All Might finally tells him he can he mans up and WAS going to start on his but All Might offers his quirk if he's willing to walk the path for it, Deku just happened to accept. Saitama was a grown ass man who was literally dead inside his whole life until he randomly saves a booty-chinned kid from a crab with nipples drawn on it and starts getting swole at 22 with an exercise routine that's not even half as taxing as Deku's was. How is this shit even a legit comparison in your mind user?
Jaxson Morales
>So they are in occupations where quirks aren't necessarily important at all. That is wrong. The one relevant Doctor who is an actual character has a quirk doing it. Most people have quirks. Its 80% but as far as demographics go it is 95% in Deku's age group
How are you too stupid for a shonen that isn't even smart?
Chase Ward
Its called a straw man
Colton Garcia
>Throws your life work away after burning it >Tells you to kill yourself >You don't do anything besides cry Why should anyone, let alone Bakugou, respect this kid? If there was a moment to at the very least tell him he was rude that was the moment.
Owen King
>He didn't want a quirk, he just wanted to be a hero Yet he gave up on being a hero because he didn't have one and the story gives him one, imply he indeed needed a quirk to be a hero.
Joseph Bennett
>The one relevant Doctor who is an actual character has a quirk doing it. That does not mean quirks are necessary for those occupations.
Adam Turner
>Yet he gave up on being a hero because he didn't have one and the story gives him one, No. He gave up because of the Hero he wanted to be like told him he couldn't be a Hero without a quirk. Its just one chapter man. You can't miss that much.
Thomas Moore
Quirks affect your personality. Its literally just the word for personality in japanese. They influence your interests and your job. If you consider demographics of the vast majority of people having quirks then most of them will have quirks related to it Even more they are clearly ranking higher depending on their quirk.
Easton Johnson
He didn't do shit that was actually constructive, so no, he gave up a long time ago. Stop appealing to your shitty story for your talking points, redditurd. It is what is under scrutiny now.
David Miller
>He didn't do shit that was actually constructive, so no, he gave up a long time ago. He applied to UA. He went for the hero course. He studied heroes.
Matthew Bell
None of those were constructive. He did no hard work until he was promised something.
Christian Watson
That does not mean quirks are necessary for those occupations, just deterministic rationalizations for not bothering.
Brody Reed
Hero is a carreer plan applying yourself to get to UA is a fairly good way to guarantee you can work as a hero. Everyone in his class except him had a quirk and they all planned to go into the hero carreer But only him and Bakugo applied to UA. Bakugo who is naturally gifted and Deku who tried his hardest Working out aimlessly is the most retarded suggestion I keep seeing from shitposters.
Caleb Phillips
>just deterministic rationalizations for not bothering. Deku bothered. That is the entire problem. If he had just accepted that he couldn't be a hero without a quirk without meeting all might then everything would've been fine. Its like a guy who wants to be a firemen but doesn't have quirk. At the end of the day he is risking the lives of other people by not leaving that profession to people with quirks.
Wyatt Hall
dude he cryed and bitched to his mum for wanting a quirk
Ethan Morales
Not same user. He did indeed give give up in his heart long before the story started. Society told him he couldn't. His own mom told him he couldn't and gave up on him. And then his childhood hero who inspired his dream in the first place told him he couldn't. And with that, he finally accepted and admits deep down he'd given up but like Shinso says 'you can't help what your heart yearns for' which is why he clung to it for so long until All Might broke his spirit by telling him without a quirk he couldn't be a hero, Deku's whole thing up to that point was that even without a quirk, he wanted to know if he could still do it. He WANTED it, but knew it was impossible but still wanted closure at least. Just to know if it was possible while still clinging to his hope until it was finally and truly broken. It's not until he tries to save Bakugou that All Might remembers what the value of a hero is and should be, that he tells Deku he could be a hero. Not because of power but because having a heart that's willing to save others. It's not exactly complicated to grasp man.
>dude he cryed and bitched to his mum for wanting a quirk No he didn't He cried when he realized he wouldn't get a quirk yes but he never bitched at his mom Even the thinking of wanting her to say that he still can become a Hero was in his mind. It is such a dishonest stretch to call that bitching.
Angel Young
I do wonder why no one's had the idea to just be batman. In fact, that's pretty much what Mei is. Even if she had no quirk, she would still be just as combat capable using her "babies" as she is with her zoom eyes quirk (yes, I had to look up what her quirk was because it's that unimportant). Like, that's what Deku should have done, was built support items and used them himself.
Juan Gomez
so what your saying is your gonna sit on your fat ass all day and play video games cause everthing is meaningless and your gonna cry and bitch till you get a gf and ''have sex''
how pathetic what a waste of life
Robert Allen
>policemen >save lives ok
Carter Anderson
No I applied to a school for the field I plan working in and studied hard so it works out. Me having a girlfriend was just a coincidence because I met someone I clicked with. That is unrelated to hard work
Could you project a little less? It is really distracting and sad.
Adam Long
Okay, first of all, he was FUCKING FOUR and just had his dreams crushed. He never bitched at his mom or yell at her he just cried like any kid would have learning he would never be able to be like the hero he idolized so much and asked if he could still be like his hero even without a quirk and she, albeit indirectly, tells him no, crushing him further before eating away her guilt.
black user here. you got a sensible chuckle outta me senpai.
Owen Evans
oh boo fuck hoo who the fuck cares if hes 4 years old life not fair get over it if everyone eals in that world can why carnt he i dont see any non-qurik supervillain in the series his mum should of fucking rased him properly you can tell cause theres no dad in his life his fatass rostie mum eating her self to fill the void
Hudson Morales
>who the fuck cares if hes 4 years old life not fair get over it What the fuck?
>Working out aimlessly is the most retarded suggestion I keep seeing
>missing the point this hard
ok lard ass whatever you say
Carson Phillips
Life was hard for you wasn't it, user? I'm sorry.
Gabriel Collins
I like working out with a plan
Levi Parker
then plan a training routine i did it when i was a kid then i joind a boxing gym and now have won 14 pro bouts
Colton Turner
I find that hard to believe. Maybe they just have nonvisible quirks or quirks not necessarily useful for catching criminals. The ratio of people with quirks vs. people without is simply too large, there isn't any profession that will fail to be dominated by people with quirks unless they're in a specific quirkless commune or something.
James Robinson
If the author actually makes Deku lose/sacrifice his quirk to defeat the big bad and he ends up working as a normal policeman i'll consider this manga redeemed
Jason Gutierrez
>then plan a training routine I did I work out to not get fat and be decently in shape I have a goal you have a goal
both of those are the opposite of what you suggest for Deku which is aimlessly working out so something happens
Leo Stewart
dude in the manga the cops are after a villane who can run super fast everyone on there team dose nothing but chase him in cop cars they end up calling a hero to go after him in the end even the hero carnt stop him
you know what cops do in real cases they shoot the car and lay down traps not once did they do this and no one used there powers aprt from mc and hero
Camden Ross
I'm /fit/ user. I put on like 5 pounds because I had to study and haven't had the chance to hit the gym lately. Junk and energy drinks don't help but they're a necessary evil at this point. Anyways I never said working out isn't a good start but it's a wasted effort on someone with Deku's mindset as it was in the beginning. He was already on the verge of giving up with no one to encourage him to do better as it was. He'd have just quit eventually. Plenty of dudes do when they don't have REAL motivation to do better which Deku didn't back then which is what I'm getting at. Even applying for UA was just gonna backfire on him. But credit where credit is due at least he was in a lukewarm way was putting a foot forward so the desire WAS genuinely there but he had no real foundation for that desire to take off and be anything more than a desire, if that makes sense to you. I dont know where the video games and gf and have sex shit came from in your convo with the other dude so it does come off as some serious projection.
Ryder Ramirez
Well in the BnHAverse the real cops all probably end up as heroes and cops cops are just the ones who are kind of lazy or weak.
Noah Kelly
im not that other guy user but doing somthing is better than doing nothing whats the point of living if your not useing your life
Tyler Howard
>who the fuck cares if hes 4 years old life not fair get over it if everyone eals in that world can why carnt he user, I..... Please, please never have children. Promise me that. Just that. Nothing else. Please. I'm literally begging you.
Oliver Ward
>but doing somthing is better than doing nothing I agree with that. But I don't see how applying to a prestigious school and actually working out to get in isn't at least considered as something.
Chase Powell
Not that user but I guarantee he will never have children.
Joshua Evans
ok but dont you think the idea of a hero is some who never gives up help others and him self and never backs down deku never tryed in the first place, he was giving up cause he was backing down and he ran away and cryed at home
Mason Lopez
>ok but dont you think the idea of a hero is some who never gives up No >help others and him self and never backs down Sort of.
Carter Morales
I don't either. Most people in the Deku's situation wouldn't even do that much, honestly. Even if he gave up deep down the fact he was willing to do that much is pretty admirable. It's easy to give up and not try, to give up and still finding some scraps of will to try even just a bit even if it's just a small step is always admirable to me.
Christian Williams
i dont know man when you have time read the manga it has better world building than bnha but still shows how it all dosent make sense at the seams
Easton Powell
In his position it was the smartest thing he could do Had he just worked out then he would still compete with people with quirks. He can't go for physical prowess as his selling point to a school They rank you in both Even a fully trained gymrat Deku would rank fairly low
Jordan Hall
lol sorry to actually disappoint you but i have kids me and my wife are happy were all fine
dude im not lieing i have no reason to fucking lie to a kid on Yea Forums like wtf you gonna do dude im 29 years old my kids 1 and the other just turned 3
Julian Sullivan
Weirdest shitposting.
Jeremiah Thomas
whatever fucking zoom zoom Yea Forums i keep forgeting
Leo Bell
Arguably a bigger bitch than deku if we're being honest
Even cockroaches have children. That is not a big achievement So it could also be an adult loser who spends his time calling people zoom-zooms because they disagree about the japanese comic for children he really hates. You can be that much of a waste and still have children.
kid, anime/manga is my hobby, going on a fourm to talk about animes is apart of that hobby my work and family another part of my life mabye you will realsie this when you grow up
Ryder Parker
>you trying to reply to me? No. You are so pathetic it is depressing so I was directly not replying to you
Nathan Myers
ok whatever you say kid heres your (you)
