Tell me why I like one g-d damn BnHA post and all of a sudden my shit is flooded with B@kud3ku content.

I can't have shit in the economy.

[theloganator101]

I’m about to share my unpopular opinion here. Bakugou’s kidnapping should have been the beginning of the end of his hero career, his fall from grace.

Why?

Because the literal scum of Japan view him as one of them. They saw themselves in a hero student.

That should have been enough to get the (trashy irresponsible neglectful) faculty to do some investigations into Bakugou’s behavior and reflect on how much let let him slide without consequences.

And let’s face it, even with Aizawa vouching for him, social media is a place where scandals, incidents, theories, and opinions thrive. We were already introduced to the world of journalism in MHA when the camera quirk journalist wanted to do interviews with class 1A students and how they were willing to breach UA’s security defenses when they heard All Might was teaching there. So it wouldn’t be far fetched to assume that journalists would be interested in an inside scoop.

Articles, meta analysis, and social media posts would be likely to surface, all commenting on how villains sympathize with a person who is supposed to be an aspiring hero, before they all reach the same conclusion; the sports festival.

Disdain would follow soon after. Because to the general public, the LOV targeted Bakugou because he very much acted like a villain. And then things will slowly begin to make sense.

I know this seems like reaching, but I find it very likely for UA to be blamed as well. Not only for the kidnapping taking place but also never stepping in or making any progress in shaping Bakugou up. People will see this and begin to wonder ‘How many villain hopefuls is UA responsible for creating. This will lead to UA having to change policies. To what exactly, I’m not sure.

But one conclusion is clear, either Bakugou is put on academic probation until a police investigation is complete (Again, this is a student who villains thought would make a great addition to the team. That should have been taken more seriously other than a gloss over by Nedzu), or he is removed from the hero course all together.

Either way each result will end in the same way, Bakugou’s reputation would be in shambles (if it wasn’t already due to the sports festival), no one would be able to trust him, and his PR would crumble before it even started. And PR ratings are an extremely important part of heroics that people don’t give enough credit. It doesn’t matter how strong, skilled or smart his is or how much potential he has. A poor PR rating is enough to keep him from rising through the ranks. So his dream of being number one will likely never become a reality.

This incident will very likely follow him for a long time. Even if the hype dies down, any wrong move cause him to lose everything. Let’s be realistic here: we all know how prevalent cancel culture is around the world right? Well, I think it’d be the same situation Bakugou finds himself in. The media will likely watch him like a hawk. Waiting for a mistake or slip up. At any given moment, Bakugou can find himself cancelled just like that. It’s like a metaphorical sword above his head.

On the topic of his friendships and how the class perceives him? I don’t think they’d think badly of him right away. I mean they were all worried about him and some were actually willing to save him. But, they’re bound to be exposed to some mainstream media. They’re teenagers, so they probably have a lot of social media exposure. Just imagine the realization and then the horror.

I’m not saying hear me out, but hear me out.

I think I already seen this ask answered by @anti-bakugou-memes, but I'm willing to throw my opinion in.

As someone who watches commentary channels and seen people getting cancelled, I could see this happening if Hori wasn't playing favorites.

Bakugou's kidnapping should've raised red flags to the heroes and have them look deeper into what led the villains into coming to the conclusion of "Hey! This kid is villain potential! Let's recruit him!"

It would serve as acceptable consequences for his actions and that this whole situation would lead to him leaving UA for good due to the backlash both he and UA would get.

Plus: it could lead to an interesting conflict for 1-A of them not noticing Bakugou's disgusting behavior until now. Leading them to question if they would even make good heroes if they couldn't see their own classmate suffering from an abuser.

Bakugou is the genuinely closest thing animanga has to a white boy. A huge chunk of the arguments I've seen made in favor of him is very much reminiscent of the types of arguments made in favor of problematic white boys in western media. (in a way I have not seen with any other male character across All of animanga even literal white boy Eren) Bakugou fans calling him "female-coded" reminded me of when white women would claim kylo ren/tiny stark/dean winchester/stiles stilinski  etc. Was femal coded/disabled coded/poc coded to pass of their taste thei taste in fictional men as progressive and feminist. And on a very personal note as someone who was raised in household with a heavily abusive father Bakugou at times annoys me more than Endeavor. Mostly because both in-universe and in fandom Bakugou's actions are dismissed whiles Endeavors isn't

do people who like bakugou realize they can just. u know. - ignore it because you have like 95% of the fandom in your pocket already and its nice to see other people with the same opinion?

I genuinely love BnHA but some of the Bakugou Stans actually need to learn when to stfu sometimes. Seriously - so many of you have the wool pulled over your eyes that convince you he’s this great character that I’m literally not even going to bother to share my lengthy analysis anymore, and literally despite having so much of the fandom on your side, you still belittle the rest of us. Like. stfu and block people as needed. I literally blocked this person.

On a separate note - Twitter needs to stop showing me dumbass shit from people I don’t even fucking follow. No, I don’t care who that artist I follow also follows. Show me what I ask for.

Also, if you send hate to this person I’ll beat you to death in a corn field. We will not stoop to their levels, I’m just too tired to censor the name.

[breakable-dolls]

We do not stan Endeavore in this household.

Just in case you didn't know

[bakugoxconsquences]

how is izuku not deaf, I mean he had the living breathing howitzer bomb tormenting him everyday and using his quirk on sooo how ?

The real answer is plot armor and the fact Horikoshi didn't think that far when making B@kubitch a bully.

I know other people have theories. There are some good fics about the middle school being a recruitment spot for the meta liberation army, so they had a school nurse with a healing quirk. Or Izuku is deaf and hides it really well.

When I was reading, I chalked it up to evolution, and quirks appearing overing night 100 years ago made human bodies adapt to a lot of thing really quickly.

"I wish we could have been friends. That's all what I wanted the most. But ever since your Quirk manifested, you began to bully me. You abused me, you harassed me, and you made me feel unsafe whenever you were around. You made my life a living hell. All because I was diagnosed as Quirkless. But I'm not angry with you. I thought I would be. And I was. But then I realized that it would only make me unhappy. And after being unhappy whenever I'm with you for so long, I would never choose to feel that way again. I've accepted that we aren't friends, and that we never will be. I've also accepted that I cannot forget those years that you were cruel to me. I forgive you, Bakugō. I'm not angry with you; if anything, I pity you. You can't know happiness if your life is built around anger. For your sake, I hope your heart changes."

- Izuku to Bakugō

(NGL, I feel like this is something Izuku would say if he recognizes their toxic/unhealthy relationship & made the decision to completely cut off ties with Bakugō)

God, I wish. Unfortunately, our protagonist and the narrative would never let that happen. After all, they're rivals.

I would just like to say thank you to the person that reminded me I can block tags. I wanted to go through the BnHA spoiler tag and was assaulted by more B@kud3ku content then I was with actual spoilers.
