i could never really fully comprehend Bakugou’s reasons for hating izuku, beside being a jerk, maybe that’s why I never rlly connected with him as a character? I feel like I see it most often described him feeling look down upon? Because izuku is weaker than him but still acts like his equal/tries to be a hero. Idk. I personally don’t interpret it as some kind of crush, he only started being a bully when izuku was found out to be quirkless? Or maybe when we was quirkless but still stood up to him.
also I don’t want to come off as some bkdk hater 😭 it’s just not my fave and I’m lowkey bitter it’s the most popular when it’s never my first choice to read fanfic about etc. I love them as friends though! Platonic bkdk! ^_^
So, come to find out that TodoDeku isn’t as popular as it used to be. Apparently, they’re more of a season 2 kind of thing—which makes sense because I am still very behind on this show.
not responding to dumb Instagram comment threads, but writing long, ranting responses in my notes app and not posting them 😌 the satisfaction of having a good argument without engaging with negative people online
Also naming aizawa’s cat “Bastard”
Fandom is so funny because Aizawa and Mic have mostly consistent fanon alien designs. Like everyone seems to agree that is aizawa was an alien he would be a 6-legged cat creature (often with a scarf that is an addition appendage on his body) and he’s married to Mic who is some sort of yellow bird-like thing. Who was the first to invent 6 legged cat aizawa because that design is so funny to me.
Like BakuDeku has ALWAYS been the #1 ship I think, (I think even in the English speaking fandom? It’s always been the top ship on ao3), but it was still smaller than it has become since deku and Bakugou’s relationship has improved/deepened in the manga/those two characters have become even more of a central focus. Also I don’t read it manga and I’m not even caught up with the anime, this is just what I sense. Anyway, bakudeku has always been popular, but even more so in recent years. When I first got into mha (probably 2021?) bkdk felt a lot more avoidable if it wasn’t your cup of tea. Obviously every individual person had their fav ships, but the majority of people I saw had a sort of fanon roster of ships, I’ll call the tddk roster. Deku was the Todoroki, bkdk want happening bakugou he was paired with kirishima. this was much closer to when the sports festival and bakugou’s rescue happened, so some pivotal moments for those relationships were more fresh in people minds, as was bakugou being a bully (bkdk pivotal moments just continue to happen one dyer teh other for the whole series…).
I’m stressed about planning a trip because it had different moving parts. I threw up over it but the trip was only one of the factors. I need to apply to colleges but I don’t want to leave home. I love my mom, and I don’t want my parents to die. I want t forget about the trip I’m stressing about but I can’t even find any good tddk fanfiction to read. What happened to tddk we used to be a proper fandom. I swear I see more people on tiktok hyping up SEROROKI than tddk. Which, nothing inherently wrong with seroroki, its cute and all just not my thing personally. But. tddk used to be like the 2nd or 3rd most popular ship. I feel like it’s been bumped down. And people can choose their preferred ships off of whatever they want but I swear some new chapter drops and everyone forgets about what happened earlier. Again, nothing against kirimina, perfectly fine ship just not my fave. But where did it come from? Thai fandom was krbk this, tddk that, now its bkdk everything. It’s kind of interesting how the major ships for each character has changed, it’s just that what seems to be the new normal aren’t the ships I was used to in the fandom, so it throws me slightly.
now what’s the point of having you very own tumblr if you can’t vent random nonsense for no one to see
