Ryuji: doesn’t care about his appearance / actually has great fashion sense

Goro: cares a lot about his appearane / actually has terrible fashion sense

Sanji wanted some revenge after the gang teased him about his breakup (viola left him at a mc donalds lol) so he put sleeping pills to their dinner. And soooooo, when everyone fell asleep…this happened

I’M SO SORRY PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEEEEASE FORGIVE MEEE THIS IS SO LONG OMG I’m sure y’all gonna be like WHAT BITCH PLEASE I AIN’T READING THIS THING but GIVE IT A GO I SWEEAR IT’S WORTH IT 

reblog if ur tired of ryuji sakamoto being painted as the worst character because of his words to morgana

tony stark acting like a doctor after he got stabbed through and through?? “my insides are badly hurt but let’s pretend nothing happened by making the outside look pretty!” thats such a tony stark thing to do tbh because he’s all messed up inside but he pretends like everything is fine by wearing funky sunglasses all the time and making peace signs for the paparazzi but i really hope tony doesn’t bleed to death lol

“Hey, is that the kind of greeting I get for trying to give you a scratch?” Bucky shook out his hand, the metal still bright and hot from the flames. He picked up a sprig of dried lavender and watched as it turned to glittering ash. “…I guess that works.”

Tony just licked his lips, nuzzling against Bucky’s neck more closely. You’re welcome.

my theories on kunikida’s childhood/backstory *·˚ ༘♡

kunikida is my favorite character (world shock) so i wanted to share my thoughts of it are taken from aspects i have annotated about him/he has said. these are theories!!! nothing confirmed. pd: i have taken some info from doppo kunikida’s irl life, asagiri has taken a lot of details of his life so i doubt he won’t now. please enjoy! :) i also apologize for any misspellings, english is not my first language.

1) kunikida & his family:

kunikida is one of the few characters that have confirmed families (as said in the mini novel kunikida & katai’s magnificent days), so the possibility of being an orphan is eliminated. it’s not mentioned if he has parents or not but he has a family. here are my options/theories abt his family

his dad/his mom (or both) work for the military/government. usually the “stick” personality is associated with having a military family, kunikida’s character trope (istj, moralist) fits in the “military family” stereotype and considering bsd has a lot of topics around the military (like the current arc), it’s a high possibility. this also explains kunikida’s hate of authorities (we will get into this later), and even if they’re not from the military they’re probably people with high prestige/on the traditional side (ex: the zenin’s in jjk).

on the opposite side, kunikida’s family are anti govt (anarchism). again this is mostly related to his authority hate. this also can be linked to the azure king (if you want me to elaborate please let me know!)

these are my main ideas. important to note that irl’s stepdad worked for the ministry of justice and was an ex samurai (which could connect him to one of the fukus). other small things i have noted:

kunikida cares a lot about reputation. maybe this need for the ada’s reputation to stay intact is a reflection of his family.

kunikida used to pass a lot of time with katai (more than with his own family) so they are probably busy people/weren't really present in his life

kunikida has a “motherly” behavior yet he has a strong personality that is usually linked with a strong patriarchal figure. i personally link this to the fact that kunikida’s household could have been more matriarchal. with this, kunikida could have conflicts with his mother possibly related to his idealism.

kunikida is the youngest child. don’t debate me on this.

kunikida’s family dedicates to save people’s lifes/bring justice to them. so he followed their footsteps in his own way.

2. kunikida’s young years

2.1) his possible relation to the great war:

(spoilers for bungo stray dogs manga chapters 65 and 66)

when you think about kunikida's potential childhood, most people assume he had the most "normal" childhood out of all of the ada members. however, kunikida could have (sadly) been involved similarly to how yosano was or in other ways. this section will be divided in two sections: kunikida doppo's irl relation to the sino japanese war (with a connection to irl mori) and kunikida and the usefulness of his ability in the war context.

kunikida doppo and the sino japanese war: for a little bit of context, the first sino japanese war (1894-1895) was a conflict between the japanese empire and china because both countries were looking for being the dominant influence in korea. in this time, multiple authors that were bsdfied participated as war correspondants with the exception of (surprise surprise) ogai mori, who enlisted in the japanese army as an army doctor.

kunikida doppo worked as a war correspondant along with his friend katai tayama in the sino-japanese war. there is no information about where kunikida worked in, but katai worked in taiwan in the same division as mori; this war correspondency was vital for kunikida's career, he got extremely popular due to his war journalism). both kunikida's (doppo and his brother shuuji) were disciples of soho tokutomi, a japanese historian and journalist; it was under him where he became a war correspondant, learnt german (similar to mori) and worked in the newspaper "Kokumin no Tomo" founded by soho, and where mori published "the dancing girl".

kunikida had a involvement in the russo-japanese war, but it's insignificant compared to his work in the sino japanese war. i put this in the post because, as mentioned, asagiri puts details from the irl's life in the story; this is not the reason why i believe he was in the great war, but it makes a little bit more possible.

as i keep rereading this arc, i noticed something yosano said that caught my attention:

doesn't this sound a little similar to mr. idealist "no one will die in front of me"? because it does to me. even if they don't mean the exact same thing, the general idea is the following: keeping people alive.

yosano truly values human life

kunikida's ability and his usefulness in the war:

here's why i believe kunikida may have been involved in the great war; his ability. kunikida's ability "doppo poet" consists of being able to create anything that comes from the notebook. kunikida's ability, even if doesn't look like a threat at first glance, it's a tricky one; if he wanted, he could use a bigger notebook he could summon bigger weapons (such a b0mbs, bigger guns) but he stays with a smaller notebook (which yes it's practical, but why would he use grenades when he could summon better weapons?)

kunikida, with a never ending pile of paper, could summon multiple useful weapons almost at the same time; for the great war, having someone that could create weapons in an instant is convenient. it's also important to remember that ability users' were searched at that time (+ mori's plan, that is explained in chapter 65 or 66).

but besides his ability, and with the past section focused on yosano's trauma and response due to going to the great war, it's not difficult to assume he could have been in a similar situation. kunikida's constant creation of weapons that killed people, that he didn't not want to do because he was a child, in front of him, with no way to stop it because he was forced to create those weapons and because he was a child... he couldn't save them all, kunikida's own experience as a child soldier/weapon during the great war, in this context, is why he's so attached to them, because he sees his little self in them, and in general, it may be possibly the main reason of ideals' being born, so “no one will die in front of me” is kunikida’s reaction to the cruelness of war, just like yosano’s (panel attached below) plus, kunikida's reaction to death is very emotional and raw, which is something that is not seen a lot in bsd (and it's one of his most important characteristics), and has been a theme around for a looong time now.

i wish i'm wrong in this one (please)

2.2) kunikida the rebel

as the name says (lol) kunikida could have been a rebel in high school as well. kunikida does not care about breaking laws (except the ones where he acts like a normal citizen). this could be the aftermath of years of trauma; it's not linked to why he is the way he is but is... more of a way to show he's not that much of a "stick"

ps: between all this mess, he met katai. i don't have a theory abt their meeting but i know those two find each other in the moment they needed it the most. :) following the war timeline, i think katai's family were also involved and they met when it finished and... trauma bonded (to put in blantly).

3. kunikida and the past (why does he not want to talk abt it?)

i want to dive into the most interesting part of kunikida's conversation abt his backstory. he does not want to talk about it.

there are multiple reasons this could be such as shame and trauma; i don't have an elaborate reason why (there could be MULTIPLE) but here are the ones i feel that are the most likely:

as i said before, kunikida could have been from a family of politicians and military members. as he's an idealist, and the topic of politicians and corruption could fit perfectly, he would want to disassociate himself from them.

> this doesn't have to be only abt having govt affiliated family btw. but just the idea that he doesn't want to associate himself with his family because they don't have the same ideals.

he got disowned. not much to mention here

trauma. again not a lot to say here.

rocky relationship with his family. or maybe they are just shitty people and doesn't want to be with them anymore.

othe stuff i have thought about is that kunikida is a liar. not exactly something possible considering ranpo should know by now but it’s still… there. it’s possible.

that's it! i hope you enjoyed. sorry if it's too long i love kunikida. :)♡ let me know what you think as well!

ryuji :D

One thing that’s easy to miss regarding all the Todoroki family drama is that the abuse was never actually covered up.

I know the fandom popularized this concept, because it just makes sense that it would be, right, with Endeavor’s position and what we know about the HPSC corruption. Except… Canon actually hints in the opposite direction.

- There is a plaque right outside of Rei’s hospital room that reads “Mrs. Todoroki”. She’s been there for so long that the room is marked as hers for all the hospital personnel to see. Yet no one questions it.

- Her doctor knows about Endeavor’s abuse because they suggested that Rei isn’t ready to see him yet. And they did nothing with this information. Yes, I know that confidentiality is a thing, but. They also allowed Enji to leave apology flowers even when they know that Rei is still terrified of him 10 years later. The doctor knows Rei’s condition and her improvement, but they don’t know jack shit about Enji’s “atonement” or how trustworthy his change of heart actually is. As far as the doctor knows, those flowers might’ve been an abusive tactic to get Rei to forgive her abuser and continue abusing her. Bc that’s what happens in real life. Yet the doctor didn’t oppose this. Supposedly because Endeavor is a hero.

- Shouto wasn’t homeschooled like the fandom seems to perceive as canon. He went to school regularly. We have pictures of kindergarten and middle school. Which means that no teacher ever noticed the bruises. No teacher questioned the burn scar on his eye, despite knowing that Shouto is a fire user. No teacher ever questioned his open hatred for his dad.

- just because none of the Todoroki talks about it, it doesn’t mean that they’re trying to hide it, either. Fuyumi talked openly about her brother’s death and his father’s involvement in it with minimal prodding, like she just assumed that Shouto had talked to them about it.

- Last but not least, Endeavor still doesn’t really recognize what he did as abuse, as shown by how clueless he still is about Natsuo’s feelings. He thinks it was just a “mistake” that he can fix by being slightly less controlling. But his ignorance on the matter tells us that he wouldn’t have covered up after himself, because he never perceived any of those things as crimes. After all, their society is firmly based on the violent takedown of those arbitrarily labeled villains. Endeavor is a hero, so it’s his status alone that prevents him from actually seeing the reality of what he’s done. Heroes don’t do “crimes”. They make “mistakes”.

- society itself is very apologetic and forgiving of the abuse of power carried out by heroes. No one actually thinks that heroes can do wrong, or not help others. There’s multiple examples of how this mindset leads to crimes hidden in plain sight. Like Tenko’s abuse. Like Shigaraki threatening Izuku in a packed mall without anyone noticing that anything was wrong. Even with the evidence of Hawks’ own murder, Tokoyami forgave Hawks and told him that what he did was right. Society turns a blind eye to everything that doesn’t quite fit with what they perceive as an utopia. This is a theme in bnha.

So basically.

We really should stop saying that Endeavor (or the commission) covered up the abuse, because that takes away from the actual narrative at play here: there is no cover up. There was never a need for it, because in hero society things like what he did get routinely brushed off without any external input. And that’s exactly the problem.
