As a model herself, Chiyo often goes to buy the latest fashion magazines in stores. However this time, the Top Hero Mag she usually skipped was highlighting a certain pro hero she fancied, and so she bought it out of curiosity. Needless to say, she was pleasantly surprised by what she saw inside.
She might consider starting a more.. different type of magazine collection and she TOTALLY won’t be on the hunt for more men’s undergarment magazines.
(MUAAAAHAHAHAHA JEANIST WITH NO CLOTHES ONNN 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤)
(ver without Chiyo under the cut)
EEEKKK I HIGHKEY COOKED WITH THIS ONE I GENUINELY LOCKED TF IN 🫡🫡🫡🫡
Deadass the first time I’ve EVER drawn a shirtless man and rendered it. I got so desperate for more shirtless Jeanist I had to make my own 😭😭
I was gonna add a scarf or sum but I lowkey liked the face so he’s fully unmasked 🏃🏃
Yknow for my first time this isn’t a bad attempt cuz I literally had no idea what I was doing and just balled the anatomy and rendering till it looked good 🫡
I know Tsunagu prolly does NOT have allat but let me be
No one asked for this, so here goes. I'm uploading this the same day I wrote it, so it's not rly proof read and kinda rambly.
460 words, roughly.
I feel like he grew up relatively well off; not sure if I want to call it rich, but he gives me the impression that his parents were at least somewhat famous.
I don’t mean hero-famous by that, necessarily. I headcanon his mother as a former model/actor turned fashion designer and his father as someone from the film industry (not 100% set on this part, but actor/ regisseur relationships are pretty common).
His mother would share his Quirk (or as Quirk development goes, have a weaker version of it); (not really sure about his father, though, probably something unrelated to Fibre Master).
Why do I think so? Let me explain.
I don’t remember if it’s been outright stated in the anime/ manga, but I think it was at the very least implied that Jeanist has contact points with the fashion industry be that in design or modelling. Honestly, I can see both.
It’s no secret he’s constantly aware of how his actions reflect on his work and reputation like he was raised under constant media attention if not straight PR management.
He’s always adjusting his hair and posing a lot, once again as if he’s expecting a camera to be around.
And, of course, there’s a negative side to this. There’s the constant pressure to meet the standards of others, standards that are more often than not impossibly high.
And when people feel like they aren’t enough, they turn to perfectionism to compensate. And Jeanist is very much a perfectionist.
Then, there’s the constant surveillance.
His hero costume has a high collar that hides half of his face, potentially to give him some sense of privacy.
You could argue the collar is so high to give him more denim to use for his Quirk, but I think, it goes deeper than that.
I think it’s also to hide his neck and to no one’s surprise, I think. His neck does make him look a bit odd and it makes me wonder, how someone so obsessed with outward appearances would feel about that.
Probably, at least a little insecure. So much so, that maybe they’d leave the collar of their hero costume untouched while expending the remaining denim of their coat/ clothing to stop a building from collapsing.
(from Vigilantes, chapter 122)
Or so much so, that they would wear high turtleneck sweater in the privacy of their own home.
(from MHA, chapter 231)
So much so, that during the one time, we do see Jeanist’s face, his neck is still covered.
(from MHA, chapter 306)
Lastly, there’s his hero name – Best Jeanist.
It could be viewed as arrogant to name yourself after an award or maybe it just ties into his past, the constant demands and expectations, now turned into aspirations he holds for himself.
I also know some of my points are a bit of a stretch, but I didn't want to go on additional tangents. Anyway, thx for reading <3
I love them both so much. Edgeshot looks so adorable here, and I simply cannot get over how he's holding onto his onigiri. I get he probably can't hold it in any other way, but he's clutching it so close to his tiny body like he's scared someone's gonna take it from him. Like they just don't see him and assume it just fell on the ground and they try to throw it away. 😭 It's okay Edge, just stab them with your hair if they try.
And Jeanist looking snazzy as usual, love the dark wash costume, and his boots. This flamboyant man is just posing for the love of the game, but thank the stars he removed one of those god-awful belts. Wonder if he's actually gonna eat that onigiri or give it to Edgeshot later. 🤔 Ooo! I wonder what kinda filling they like in them!?
