Just saw a post by an izuchako saying bakudeku shippers ruined the series and that Horikoshi was pressured and threatened into developing Bakugo and their relationship and like.... did we read the same series???? Did we experience the same My Hero Academia????
Their relationship was being developed from the beginning. It started with them, and they were being developed since season ONE. Their relationship and growth was a key part of the series, and it feels like ignoring that isn't truly understanding the complicated themes of growth, heroism, and forgiveness in the series. It feels like you're simply ignoring it for the sake of ignoring it.
Furthermore, Horikoshi has said that Bakugo is his favorite character, so why wouldn't he develop him? Every character changed throughout the series, and that seems to be accepted, but people are so hesitant to accepting that when it comes to Bakugo for some reason.
I've seen tons of people say that Deku shouldn't have forgiven Bakugo like it's their choice who he should or shouldn't forgive. But, this was his experience, and it was his choice who to forgive or not. He chose to forgive Bakugo, but not Shigaraki. Forgiveness is a huge theme in this series, but people ignore it because they don't like it or how it was executed.
The person also stated that the series was ruined because izuchako didn't become canon. The only thing I have to say to that is: what???? The series was ruined for you because your ship didn't become canon? If you've been a part of fandom culture for a while, you should know that ships becoming canon means little to nothing to most fans. Because shipping isn't about it being canon or if they blush at each other or not. It's about having fun and making little what-ifs, and maybe you shouldn't be interacting with fandom if you can't accept that.
I don't care what you ship or what you do as long as it's legal, but respect goes both ways and I'm running out of a lot of it for parts of this fandom.
PLEASE
basic fandom etiquette rules if some of y'all forgot
1. don't put ship tags in your hate/anti posts
2. if u hate someone opinion/hc just block or mute them and move on
3. never leave a criticue under people's work, it's not a published book, juts close the fic and find something for your taste
4. always ask artist for permission to repost their art and always use credits
5. if u don't like something click the button mute
6. if u like a art or fic please leave something nice in comments, it will inspire creators and keeps them motivated
I keep seeing From The Sidelines references but I tried to read it and i just COULDNT finish it there was way too much smut
RAHHHHHH
YALL never been more desperate in my life Katsuki is losing the pool he can't loose his streak help him win please (IN MY COUNTRY HE IS STILL WINNING BUT I CAN ONLY DO SO MUCH AND I ALREADY USED ALL OF MY DEVICES)
Under Pressure was only out for 5 days when James was killed
He and Sirius likely never got to listen to it together
*sigh* Bakugo getting Deku a promise ring before they even date because he can't stand the idea of ever being without him
HE NEEDS A BRONZE STATUE GUYS JUST LIKE ALL MIGHT PLEASEEEEEEE
The post canon fics are gonna go so unbelievably hard so
