Go Beyond!

A very self indulgent rewrite of My Hero Academia from a dweeb. I will be posting my ideas on the characters and occasionally an important scene or two. If you are interested in the idea of MHA but don't like how it turned out this might be for you. My main blog is @downwithcisdriver.

What character is most changed from the original?

I can't say everyone and I'm indecisive so I'm just going to go with the canon villains. Most of them are completely unrecognizable and I'm going to discuss two of them that I haven't talked about a lot and are significantly different. I've also just been thinking about them recently so here they are.

Chizome is pretty similar in his villain persona but he has a full life outside of it. He's close with his family & is pretty cheerful. His day job is as a reporter which is where he was radicalized. Chizome saw heroes getting away with horrible things which is why he became a vigilante. He's great with kids & because of that has become everyone he knows default babysitter. Overall he's just a compartmentalizing king when it comes to his villainy & I support it.

Tsukiji is a really chill person instead of whatever she's supposed to be in canon. Honestly I was just inspired by the fanon characterization of her because she's so flat in canon. As of when the story starts Tsukiji is in Tartarus for vigilantism bordering on villainy. She used to be very aggressive but she's mellowed out in prison & is now just trying to survive & protect the friends she's made.

How does Izuku feel about Bakugos bullying? Does he ever fully forgive him?

I've waited to answer this question for a few days because I know what the answer is but what it took me a while to understand is the why. Izuku's feelings towards Katsuki's bullying change throughout the series but yes they do forgive him. There will be vague spoilers for future posts above the cut but they're towards the end.

As I've tried to show at first Izuku both resents & is scared of Katsuki & how he'll react to Izuku's existence. But over time Izuku grows more brave and Katsuki starts to realize how wrong he was. It's not shown but Katsuki in the background starts to work on unpacking his bigotry during the summer of the first year.

As of Semester Three, Part Four they've reached a sort of awkward peace from Izuku's perspective. But Katsuki is in turmoil, he feels incredibly guilty & wants to apologize but is too scared to. It's only when the news comes out about Izuku's past Quirklessness that Katsuki feels like he can start to redeem himself and make things right.

Katsuki does not think that he deserves forgiveness or that he is a good person but he is determined to try to be better. He would accept Izuku hating him and he thinks that Izuku does but is just quiet about it. But Izuku doesn't, they've started to see that Katsuki is trying and for him that is enough.

One of the major ideas that I want to discuss is forgiveness & kindness when it is not only unnecessary but undeserved. Izuku is a very kind & forgiving person despite everything he's gone through & that is what I want to define him. So when it comes to Katsuki I've always known that I wanted Izuku to forgive Katsuki but it took me a while to fully understand why because for a while it felt more like a plot necessity than a character decision.

Izuku chooses to forgive Katsuki because he has to believe that the world can be a better place & that people can change. He chooses to be Katsuki's friend because he does like Katsuki's company. Izuku's forgiveness is not completely healthy but it is forgiveness. Besides all of the good reasons he feels like he has to forgive and more importantly forget because he does want to be Katsuki's friend. In their mind there is no way to not ignore the past and continue hanging out with him. Now onto the less vague spoilers.

Late in the second year Izuku accidentally reveals how horrible Katsuki was and a lot of people's opinion on Katsuki change. Eijiro, who at this point is one of Katsuki's closest friends, is really angry at him and people start to avoid him.

It's only at this point when Izuku starts to analyze his relationship with Katsuki. He's gotten better at not ignoring their past but he's still not fully confronted everything. So he talks to Inko and a counselor who both help him figure out that he can't just pretend the past never happened. Izuku is allowed to do whatever he wants but he can't ignore everything and he has to actually talk to Katsuki about everything.

So they talk and decide that they need to actively work on their relationship and Izuku tells Katsuki that they don't fully blame him. He tells Katsuki that he is to blame but so is everyone that let him get away with it. Katsuki admits more of why he did it, saying that he was jealous of how well Izuku always seemed to be doing in school and he thought that if Izuku had a Quirk he would be the better hero. Then he says that Izuku is the better hero and he'll happily spend his life trying to catch up to him.

Kindling of a Legacy

Semester Three, Part Five

It's not that unusual for reporters to be outside of UA so at first Izuku's not concerned. When they all stare at him with hungry cameras the second he gets out of his mother's car he starts to worry. It's just as his mom is pulling away that one of them asks if he's Quirkless and Izuku's stomach drops.

They ask him thousands of questions all about whether he has a Quirk. It's like he's been convicted of something already when all he did was eat some of Toshinori's hair. Izuku's frozen in place, he can't move or even breathe, everything he's worked for is gone.

Someone grabs Izuku's shoulder and he looks up to see Bakugo yelling at the reporters. He tells them that they've known each other since they were infants and that all of their questions are nonsense. Izuku's shocked as Bakugo drags him forward, he should be taking full advantage of this opportunity. But when he glances back at Izuku and tells him that he's taking them to Toshinori's room he seems genuinely concerned.

They get into the school and Izuku wonders if they all know, he's been faking all of this for nearly a year. The walk to the classroom is agonizing and too slow, everyone is staring at him and he hates it. He wants to disappear, sink into the ground and just not have to deal with this anymore.

Finally they get to Toshinori's room and the second they door is closed Toshinori hugs him. For a second they just stand there before Bakugo clears his throat and Izuku remembers how weird this looks. Bakugo has two questions for them, where did Izuku get a Quirk and why is he hugging his teacher.

Izuku explains the basics of it and Bakugo looks angrier than Izuku has ever seen him. He walks towards Toshinori and asks if the Quirk nonsense was why Izuku was sick all the time last year. He's shocked that Bakugo even remembers that, it was mostly headaches and muscle cramps. He rarely left school for them but somehow Bakugo noticed.

Izuku tries to defend Toshinori, saying that his parents know and the nepotism is if anything a bad thing. He clearly said something wrong because Bakugo looks like he's about to kill Toshinori. Thankfully he doesn't and lets Toshinori call Izuku's parents to pick him up.

Some anonymous source told a newspaper that Izuku was Quirkless and that he got his Quirk from The Quirk Giver, at least it confirms that the empire didn't die. If not for the obvious Izuku would be focused on investigating that and trying to take down The Quirk Giver, now he's just sitting in his room and staring at the ceiling.

He would only have the resources to do anything like that if he were a hero and he knows that after this mess that dream is dead and gone. It's been a two days since the article released and Izuku has stayed home from school the whole time. The idea of facing all the people he's lied to makes him feel sick.

When the doorbell rings he doesn't get up to get it and only decides to when they ring again. He runs his fingers through his hair but doesn't bother doing anything else, just walking to the door as it rings for a third time.

It's Ashido on the other side, clearly ready to press the doorbell again. All four of his friends are here and he wishes they weren't, it would be so much easier to never see them again. Without thinking about it he asks what they're doing here and Ashido answers that they're checking on him. They don't think it's true and that is both the best and worst thing that he's ever heard.

Iida asks how he is and he just shrugs, resisting the urge to tell them everything just to see how they'd react. For a second he contemplates if not taking Toshinori's offer would have been better than that outcome. Iida nudges Izuku and he realizes that he's going to start spiraling, again.

They gather around Izuku in the living room and Iida says that it's nonsense before telling him about some of his relative's scandals. It's not comforting but Izuku appreciates the effort. The whole thing is made worse when he says that the idea of Izuku being Quirkless is ridiculous.

Izuku suggests that they put on some old kids movies he still has and they agree. When it's an All Might movie Uraraka suggests that Izuku is an All Might simp he gags. Things almost seem normal again but he knows that the idea of anything being normal for him is a pipe dream.

Katsuki ignores the journalists and waits outside for Deku, no Midoriya, tapping his foot against the ground. When he does arrive he looks shocked to see Katsuki, his eyes widening like a deer in headlights. That's been normal for them for years but recently he's begun to hate it more than he hates himself. Midoriya looks even more shocked when he tells him that he's not going to tell anyone.

They walk into hell together, with Katsuki flipping off the reporters as Midoriya stares at the ground. When Kirishima waves to them from the front of the building Midoriya tenses again and Katsuki frowns to himself. If Kirishima's a jerk about any of this he'll break his jaw, screw being a hero if that's what it takes to make it up to Midoriya.

They talk for a few minutes before Ashido comes up to them, asking to steal Midoriya. They both nod and Katsuki wishes that he hadn't, that he could say any of the stuff that he's been thinking for months now. He doesn't though, he's done enough to Midoriya.

Izuku's in a surprisingly good mood until he sees the crowd outside his apartment building. Even without everything going on he'd be nervous about it but he wouldn't think it was about him. Now he knows it is, Die is written in spray paint on the wall and Izuku has never been more scared.

For Pride Month & for myself I'm making random men either nonbinary or transfem. I am doing this because I want more genderqueer & trans representation & because MHA has very few important women and no nonbinary characters. I will be making the ultimate choices but please leave suggestions. Anyway happy Pride & we will still have the regular Monday post later.

Kindling of a Legacy

Semester Three, Part Four

When Izuku asks Toshinori if he was bullied for being Quirkless he doesn't get the answer he expected. He knew that it wouldn't be as bad as what he'd gone through. Toshinori grew up when Quirkless discrimination was starting after all. But apparently due to a combination of pity for his mom's death when he was young and people being intimidated by his height he only faced light teasing.

Unfortunately Toshinori asks why Izuku would even bring it up and seems shocked to hear that Stain is Quirkless. The next question makes things worse, Izuku asks if he thinks people would care if they knew the truth. He tries to be comforting, saying that Bakugo doesn't seem to care but Izuku knows he's wrong. In the end his Quirklessness will always haunt him.

Izuku's been waiting for this since he got the text from Todoroki the day before. Todoroki had told him about a new hero cafe opening up and while it hadn't cured any of his problems it was a nice band-aid. So Izuku waits outside the school with him, waiting for someone named Kurumada to drive them there.

Eventually he arrives in a car that probably costs more than a month's rent at Izuku's apartment and they get inside. Todoroki looks completely calm and for a moment Izuku wonders what it must be like to be him. After Kurumada introduces himself they start checking out the menu and Izuku gawks, there are foods he's never even heard of there.

The look on Izuku's face must be hilarious because it makes Todoroki lighten up as they get to the All Might section. It's all American themed food because of course and Izuku makes a mental note to show all of it to Toshinori later. He's shocked by how expensive it is and reminds himself that he has Todoroki who clearly doesn't need to worry about money.

They quickly pick out what they're going to get and when they arrive they walk straight to the counter, with Izuku taking a photo of the Typhoon Taiyaki to send to Sorahiko. If Todoroki notices him he doesn't say anything, clearly too distracted by ordering and the... interesting design choices.

It's like every hero ever threw up in there and Izuku can't describe how much he loves it. When they grab seats by the entrance someone recognizes them or their uniforms, nodding but not saying anything. They're silent as Izuku texts the photo to Sorahiko before Todoroki asks why he decided to go into heroism. Izuku tells him that it's always been his dream so he had to try and Todoroki's response is ominous, apparently he was born to be a hero.

After that Izuku asks if he's going to the nearby Yamayaki Festival, a ceremony where mountains are set on fire to purify the land. It's only after he says it that he realizes he shouldn't have and he quickly apologizes. Todoroki shrugs though, saying that it's fine.

Apparently his father and his sidekicks will be there but he only went one time when he was young. There's another pause before Todoroki asks what he'd do if he wasn't going into heroism. Again the answer is natural, he'd be a Quirk researcher since he's already halfway there. Before Izuku gets a chance to ask about Todoroki's other choice he questions who he was texting earlier and Izuku explains it was a family friend who loves taiyaki.

Todoroki looks unnerved by that, like the idea of a family friend is completely foreign to him. But Izuku's long since accepted that Todoroki is probably autistic and definitely not socialized as a child so he just accepts it.

Rei's room is bland, the only sign of personality are the succulents and cactuses around the room. Tori looks around before saying that it's nice to see her again. She responds in kind before asking why he's there which surprises Tori.

Himura's aren't raised to be blunt, they're trained from birth to surround the truth with platitudes and white lies. To put it simply they're all conniving bastards so Tori's both shocked and relieved to have her get to the point so quickly. So Tori asks the question he's been wondering for nearly eleven years, why is Rei at the mental hospital? For a second Rei is still before she sighs heavily and gestures for him to sit down.

They're all waiting around for the fire to start, eating food or in Uraraka's case taking a video for Himura. Izuku doesn't know why she couldn't make it since she lives in the prefecture but he doesn't question it. The festival is in full swing and even though it's loud it's worth it for the energy humming in the air. Then the fire starts, eating up the mountain as Izuku watches, fascinated by it. No matter how many people are hurt or even die the fire will go on, all because it needs to live.

does bakugo play pokemon and does he like all the electric types

He likes Pokemon & prefers fire types but also likes electric, dragon, fighting & dark. He is of the opinion that fire type starters should continue becoming bipedal. If he had a Pokemon team out of the Pokemon that are currently out it would consist of:

Quilava

Growlithe

Gabite

Toxtricity

Inciniroar

Guzzlord

If he didn't care so much about & aesthetics he would have more fairy & psychic types but he's an edglord. Also if anyone knows more about Pokemon than I do feel free to tell me what would be a better competitive team because he's definitely playing to win.

No main story post this week because I'm working on something that will hopefully be ready for Friday's post.
