Tarot Card Meanings in TBHX

I decided to try interpreting the meaning of the Tarot cards shown in the second opening. The same card can have multiple meanings, so I tried to select the ones that I thought best suited the situation.

The Fool is a card of new beginnings, opportunity and potential. You are at the outset of your journey, standing at the cliff‘s edge, and about to take your first step into the unknown. Even though you don’t know exactly where you are going, you are being called to commit yourself and follow your heart, no matter how crazy this leap of faith might seem to you. Now is a time when you need to trust where the Universe is taking you.

It seems that X met Wreck at some point, and this had a big impact on his fate.

When The Fool and The Chariot appear in a reading together, it is often interpreted as a signal for change, progress, and transformation. This combination suggests that the seeker is on the verge of an exciting new beginning that could take them to greater heights than they ever imagined. The Chariot reflects the determination and a strong desire to succeed, while The Fool indicates the courage to take the leap of faith and embark on a new venture.

The Wheel of Fortune card in Tarot symbolizes destiny, unexpected events. When the Wheel of Fortune card is upright in a Tarot reading, the card means a stroke of luck, an unexpected windfall. You may feel in sync with the universe, like everything is going your way. Take advantage of this moment to steer your ship to where it needs to be.

The Hierophant card represents an established set of spiritual values and beliefs and is often correlated with religion and other formal doctrines. Before you can discover your own belief systems and make your own choices, The Hierophant encourages you to learn the fundamental principles from a trusted source.Work with a teacher, mentor, or guide to teach you about spiritual values and beliefs in a structured way. He may be an authority or a kind and generous mentor who nurtures your spiritual awareness and helps you access the Divine by understanding the traditions and core principles. You may also undertake a period of formal study as you delve into a subject that has been widely explored and documented.

The Hierophant Tarot card often speaks to group membership or being part of an institution. You may enjoy a deep sense of comfort being surrounded by people who have well-established belief systems and explicit values. Finding them may be as significant as exploring a new church or religious group. This card is about identifying with others and a way of thinking that will prompt further learning.

The Devil card symbolizes downfall, unexpected failure, controversy, violence, disaster, an ill-tempered person, and weird or strange experiences. The Devil card warns you not to be too restrained but to be passionate and ambitious. You are restrained because you allow yourself to be.

It is not entirely clear whether The Hierophant and The Devil cards are together, or whether the girl is holding a completely different card along with The Hierophant, which has not yet been revealed, but if we assume that they are combined, then the meaning could be as follows:

The combination of The Hierophant and The Devil tarot cards can represent an internal conflict that may lead to a feeling of stagnation or frustration. It can indicate that we are struggling to find a balance between our spiritual and materialistic lives. We may feel that we are being pulled in two different directions, making it challenging to make decisions that align with our true self. In this situation, it is important to take a moment to pause, reflect, and evaluate where we stand in terms of our beliefs and principles. We may need to reassess our priorities and let go of attachments or beliefs that are no longer serving us. By doing so, we can identify the obstacles that are blocking our spiritual growth and take action to overcome them.

It's time to stop hiding and challenge fate.

Do X and Wreck know each other?

I decided to rewatch the second opening, and it seems I stumbled upon something interesting. Well, it seems X and Wreck met at some point.

And since the Fool card symbolizes new beginnings, this meeting somehow influenced X's rise to heroism.

So perhaps the fact that the Graffiti King (Wreck) can enter X's space isn't just a coincidence.

I just realized that Lucky Cyan being the hero number seven is such incredible symbolism because seven is considered a lucky number.

Time Travel AU:

This is just some crazy idea I had that I'll never be able to implement, so I decided to share it here.

Lin Ling has been playing Nice for a while now. Moon and Nice haven't gotten married yet, so Moon is still in the Hero Tower.

Some villain that Lin Ling fights sends him back in time to when the original Nice was still alive. Even though the original Nice is alive, Lin Ling retains Nice's appearance and abilities, as well as his trust value. Lin Ling doesn't even immediately realize that something is wrong, and continues to play Nice despite some of the oddities he notices around him, but chooses to ignore because his life is pretty crazy these days and he's learned to just accept whatever is thrown at him. Maybe at the beginning, even Miss J mistook Lin Ling for the original Nice and takes him away to film a show or something, ignoring the fact that Nice is acting a little unusual.

Nice at this time is not yet depressed, but is already starting to feel the pressure of society's expectations. He just goes about his normal hero business, although he may notice at some point that he has more time to himself than usual (since Lin Ling is acting out Nice for half a day instead of the original Nice).

At the end of the day, they both end up in the same place and finally see each other for the first time. Nice is very confused because he found his doppelganger, and Lin Ling is shocked because he sees a living dead person. Lin Ling, being the expressive young man that he is, unintentionally spills a lot of information to Nice in his shocked state, including that he is from the future and that Lin Ling became Nice's replacement after he committed suicide. Nice is devastated because his future wasn't what he expected, and on top of that he's mad at Treeman for simply replacing him with someone else in the future and pretending like nothing happened, like Nice's life meant nothing to them. Eventually Miss J finds out that there are two of them now (maybe Moon found them together and called her, or maybe Nice called Miss J in a fit of rage at Treeman to tell her what he thought of them) and they all get together to decide what to do next.

I haven't thought past that, but I like the idea that Treeman eventually decides to use Lin Ling to fill in for Nice sometimes, thus giving Nice more freedom and also making him stop being so mad at them for what they would have done to him in the future if Lin Ling hadn't shown up. Lin Ling agrees to these terms since his past self also exists in this time, so he can't go back to his old life. Besides, he is still a fan of Moon, and he is happy to continue spending time with her.

So, Lin Ling becomes Nice and Moon's new roommate, and he sometimes fills in for Nice during filming and other social events. Maybe while filming another commercial, Lin Ling, as Nice, would even meet his past self, who knows.

Wuh,,,

"died and came back wrong" nah, died and came back an entirely different guy. like actually, that's just some random other dude. where did you get him

Shoto says that it was during this period of chaos that AFO appeared, and a few pages later we are shown a mysterious man walking through the empty, ruined streets. Horikoshi, what the hell?

I'm now thinking about this Dark AU where AFO still managed to take over Izuku's body and now he became truly invincible because Izuku was the only one who could deal heavy damage to AFO without the risk of his quirk being stolen, and besides Moreover, Izuku is originally quirkless, and the damage OFA inflicts on people with quirks does not affect him. At the same time, if AFO took over Izuku's body, it would be a very strong blow to everyone's spirit, because Izuku is the inspiration, the Symbol of Hope, looking at whom the heroes find the strength to continue to fight with all their might despite all the injuries and pain which they experience. How would Izuku's teachers and friends feel if they realized that they would be forced to fight the monster inside Izuku, with no way to defeat it except by killing Izuku? This one is truly terrifying.

The heroes were very lucky that Shirakumo intervened to stop AFO from reaching Izuku.

This is very good work. I think as many people as possible should see this, especially with recent events.

[arquerite]

I haven't seen anyone pay attention to this, so I'll do it: Izuku in chapter 423 sees the real face of AFO for the first time.

The fact that Izuku doesn't react to his appearance means that Izuku doesn't recognize him. So this makes it less likely that the DFO theory will be confirmed. However, I would not completely discount this theory. Considering how many new things we learned in the final arc, such as the fact that AFO was able to change his appearance and his blood type/DNA, Horikoshi could easily make DFO canon if he wanted. There are only two secrets left that Horikoshi has not yet revealed to us, and these are Tsubasa and Hisashi. We should probably expect them in the epilogue.

[arquerite]

I'm serious, this can't be a coincidence.

[arquerite]

I see one optimistic scenario in which Izuku can still retain his quirk.

If you watched the second movie (which is considered canon at this point), then you know that the OFA users independently returned to Izuku at the end of the movie.

Their will was what allowed the quirk to return after Izuku willingly gave the quirk to Katsuki. And in the final battle, Izuku also voluntarily handed over the OFA to Shigaraki, except Shinomori. So in theory, OFA users excluding Shinomori could return to Izuku. The question was whether they survived after Izuku threw them with all his might at Shigaraki. Because, as Kudo said, they should have disappeared after they hit Shigaraki's mental barrier.

And in chapter 423 we see that they still exist.

But more than that, Shigaraki is the owner of OFA at this point, and we see him touching hands with Izuku.

Even if OFA users were unable to return to Izuku on their own for whatever reason, Shigaraki could transfer OFA back to Izuku if he wished. Who knows, maybe Shigaraki could even transfer his own vestige since he also became one of the OFA users. On the other hand, unlike the rest of the OFA users, Shigaraki doesn't have his own quirk, and neither does All Might, and we don't see vestige All Might being among those trying to give AFO the final blow. So, it is not entirely clear whether vestige All might was passed on to Shigaraki originally or not. However, I think that if the rest of the OFA users had the opportunity to return, they might take Tomura with them.

Honestly, I don't think this scenario will happen, but I would really like it to happen. Izuku likes quirks and has always liked OFA. Izuku deserves to have a quirk and he deserves to be a hero. I want Izuku and Katsuki to be a hero duo who always compete with each other, but also always support each other. Izuku deserves to be able to continue saving people like he always wanted. Regardless of whether Izuku became the greatest hero or not by defeating the greatest evil, I want this not to be the last thing he does as a hero. I want to see Izuku keep up with his classmates on the path to becoming heroes.

[arquerite]

So, the opening continues to spoil the final battle.

[arquerite]

Tomura is gone.

[arquerite]

I'm not crying, you're the one crying.
