Okay small rant but
BNHA reboot where Momo Yaoyorozu gets the respect and proper treatment she deserves.
She’s incredibly smart, calculating, innovative but also has very apparent self-worth and anxiety issues. And absolutely none of that implies in the slightest that she’s the sort of person who’d be comfortable in the hero outfit she’s been given. And also, she’s a child.
I know that the in-universe explanation for this is the fact that she pulls the objects she creates out of her body, so she needs as much flesh exposed as possible in order to do that efficiently. But honestly? Bad Quirk OP. Her quirk didn’t need to work like that. Bakugou’s explosions are only in his palms—not like his whole fucking body explodes giving him an in-universe reason to run around in a fucking g-string. Why couldn’t Momo’s quirk just create things from her palms? Her wrists? Frigging—have her create stuff out of the soles of her feet to give her the somewhat inconvenient and hilarious necessity for a hero outfit with no shoes. Don’t force her to bear 90% of her body like this. And don’t give us the trash fucking filth that is Mineta to point this out.
Also, ALSO, she apparently creates objects using her own fat cells. Why not let her be a fat character who optimizes this quirk? (Fatgum, a male character, makes full use of being fat given his quirk). Instead the logic of Momo’s quirk gets tossed out the window for the sake of having a tantalizing, sexy character forced to bear most of her flesh despite being embarrassed about it.
Just… when’s the BNHA patch release where they fix Momo’s outfit and delete Mineta from the universe? Because BNHA is so good and it doesn’t need to have these things.
ALL OF THIS. And also, her costume makes no sense even with the whole “as much surface area as possible” thing. She never uses more than maybe a foot of space at most, and even then that was using her back, which wouldn’t work with the way her costume is now. Wearing essentially a sports bra and some shorts would give much more surface area, be much more practical, and actually make sense with her character.
As you can see, the amount of uninterrupted surface area on the torso/stomach area is much greater on the right side than the left. Therefore, the right side would allow her to use her quirk more readily.
Also, anyone with big boobs will tell you that running without a sports bra HURTS. If you want your character to be able to run and have big boobs, THEY NEED A GOOD, SUPPORTIVE BRA. THIS IS NOT THAT HARD, GUYS.
(Anyway, I drew out what her design could look like if the mangaka decided not to sexualize her. It’s not super innovative or anything, but it’s a helluva lot better than what we have now.)
i see your cape and raise you this
Good addition!
