Just wondering do you have any opinions on todosero?
is this @samequirk asdfgh anyway
CUTE! Not sure if I’ll ever get around to drawing them, but I’ve got a few ideas I guess:
I think during their fight at the sports festival, Todoroki was actually caught off guard (for like 0.0002 seconds cause he’s quick to recover) when Sero wrapped him and attempted to toss him out of bounds but just that fraction of a moment made Todo’s admiration and respect for Sero to grow tenfold, the fact that this guy smiled in the face of his anger like got dam
And the fact that Sero was so strategic. He knew he had to act fast, the exact fucking moment Present Mic called start, he carried out his plan.
He didn’t just wrap Todoroki’s torso to tug at him, he also wrapped his legs in an attempt to immobilize him, or at least keep him from planting his feet firmly, keep him off the ground so he didn’t have a place to spread his ice (if he had also wrapped his ankles this might have given him even the slightest more of an edge to win). And realizing this all happened within a second or two, Sero knew who he was up against and took as much as he could into consideration.
They’re both relatively long range fighters, they both have reach, neither would have had to get close to fight each other, and Sero very much knew the extent of Todoroki’s power. He knew Todoroki refused to use his fire (wouldn’t burn through his tape the moment he wrapped him). So his best course of action was to throw him out of bounds and he needed to do this as fast as he possibly could because Todo could activate his quirk in an instant.
While this plan failed, you have to admit how fucking strategic this boy was thinking, even if the chances of him winning were low, Sero still did the best he could to win. And I appreciate that Todoroki took the fight seriously and I’m sure Sero did as well.
And just the fact that Todoroki knew his anger got the better of him, when he went to go melt poor Sero from his ice, he almost sounded a bit embarrassed at himself, in the English version especially. And I’m just blown away, even half frozen, Sero was able to keep a level head, shaken, but still as calm as he could be. Every single person in that arena was taken aback by the sheer power from Todoroki, AIZAWA was blown the fuck away, and yet Sero seemed to know his fate and I really fucking hope Todo was talking to him when the camera panned here
I made myself cry, I wasn’t expecting to write all this but there you go 💦💦💦 I’m very certain that their respect for each other went through the roof that day. And even if he lost, you can tell just how clever Sero is, and also how vulnerable Todoroki is to his emotions.
A few other points outside of this, they seem to have similar tastes:
Sero seems almost envious adjh 💨 They both have this organic, traditional style, just something I noticed, they seem to be the only two with plants in their room, I’m sure they’d both bond over nature, some peace every once in a while and ohhhhhh I’m sure over food as well oh jeez 😻
….also how gently Todoroki touched Sero’s chest to melt him, made me melt too excuse me
Not too sure what else to say, anyone can add to this if they want to, this is just a few points that I’ve had saved up for a while, thank you for reading!
