Interesting how there is 3 big 3 in the series
Mirio, Tamaki, Nejire.-> meh.
Deku, Bakugou, Todoroki.-> it's cool.
Shigaraki, Dabi, Toga.-> love them so much!!
Yes lol the characters are trio’d up quite a lot actually.
Shouto, Bakugo, & Midoriya are obviously a thing. I view that as a friendship thing primarily because they all help each other grow as people along the way and it’s just obvious they’ve all gotten real comfortable around each other through the Endeavor agency arc, but also as a potential coworker/hero thing since they work really well together
I’m also a fan of Iida being thrown in there: Iida, Shouto, Midoriya—> definitely a friendship/bonded through tough experiences thing, and you get the follow up later on in different moments (the war arc Iida following, retrieving Deku moment, Shouto’s noodle confession moment—> Iida is such a good friend )
Iida, Ochacko, & Midoriya have my heart purely for the organic friendship development they have. The way they all became friends at the beginning was just so realistic and relatable lol. I love that even though they aren’t the focus throughout, their friendships still matter and they even get their own volume cover together
The other kid trio I’m very much a fan of is Shouto, Ochacko, Midoriya (Savior Squad 🤩). This isn’t based on their interactions. Actually, Ochacko and Shouto barely interact, if even at all (though I suspect that’ll change later). This one is obviously based on the villains tying them together, which is why I’m a fan. I really do hope to see the three (or 6 😭) of them all interacting together later on. I’ll keep my fingers crossed 🤞. But even if not, it’ll be a missed opportunity but not a blow to the story. But we’ll see how that goes.
The Big 3–I really don’t care about them 😓
Dabi, Toga, and Shigaraki: I scream into the void about them enough. But also their “trio” dynamic is not based on their interactions at all either. Their individual circumstances and their individual stories all play off of each other without needing them to interact. And also they’re all similar to each other in ways they don’t/can’t say out loud, and for that I love the three of them. I personally don’t need them to interact directly with each other, like I’d hoped (still hope) to see with Shouto, Ocha, and Deku. I’d rather see them interact with the kids 🙏
