#shiragiri

[cryptczyk]

I didn't expect for that many people to like my Kuroboro/Shiragiri concept and the positive reception makes me want to draw more so...

I want to name him, should I call him Kuroboro or Shiragiri?

Or maybe something else entirely?

I really hope Shirakumo regaining his memories won’t mean he’ll forget his time as Kurogiri.

Your thoughts on Kurogiri/Shirakumo?

How I feel: I think he has so much potential to deliver a very emotional story and conclusion to us for Tomura and Aizawa both. He’s so important for both of them. He connects them both and yet Tomura likes Aizawa on his own too. I feel like ShiraGiri is a key component to a lot of things in the end game. Aizawa is a key component for the League getting happy endings, and ShiraGiri is the key to Aizawa.

Romantic ships: none

Non-romantic ships: Reconnect and stay with Aizawa, pls. And along with that keep Tomura there too. I want them to do it together.

Unpopular opinion: idk what’s unpopular. I guess my current take that—it was obvious Kurogiri was going to prioritize the LOV because Shirakumo can’t just come out of nowhere (esp without Aizawa being the trigger for that) but I still view everything he (and Spinner) did as irony. Kurogiri wants to protect Tomura but much like Spinner, his actions help and benefit AFO first and foremost, no matter the intention. I think Kurogiri’s salvation will result in him leaning over more toward Shirakumo—and I personally have no issue with that. I think a popular idea is him remaining Kurogiri for Tomura’s sake, but Aizawa matters too and Shirakumo is the part of him that wants safety for both. So yeah, Shirakumo come back may not be popular I guess but I’m all for it. And I think it’s happening.

One thing I wish could/would happen: No complaints. I just hope to see Aizawa being him out more and bring him over to the hero side. But before that I want to see evidence of conflict between Kurogiri (AFO’s creation) and Shirakumo (his core who cares for others). But ultimately I want to see his bond with Aizawa and Tomura both be upheld in the end in a way that works happily for all three of them.

i really hope they end up animating the vigilantes aizawa and mic backstory bc i feel like the tartarus scene w kurogiri is really lacking without the context of the depth of their relationship w oboro you know? just a couple panels showing they knew this guy doesn’t do a great job at showing how hard this hits them and how much their lives were impacted by his death.

i agree! even though its an unrelated situation, i felt the same about the compress reveal. we only ever heard about ouji once (with extremely minimal information at that), making the “reveal” pretty lackluster SFKJHSDF 

i’m not saying it’s the same as kurogiris since i feel like his has the inclination to be more relevant and actually Has a vigs storyline but. i do wish some of these plots were more involved in the story as well. thats something i feel like bnha suffers with a bit,, especially when considering the pace of these high profile arcs

but yeah !! back to the mic / aizawa / kurogiri thing. im right there with you. i think vigilantes, from the little i’ve read, does a really good job in providing aizawa the proper characterization for his motivations. like, the essence of the tartarus reveal aside for a second, i think the shirakumo incident does a rly good job of explaining his teaching style, his caution, hesitance with the hpsc, etc. his experiences as a student alone are so pivotal to who he is Now that it just feels incomplete w/o that inclusion. but YEAH, its even more important for the shirakumo/kurogiri reveal bc otherwise like?? anybody who hasnt read vigs isn’t going to care or feel like they should care,, aside from that v v v brief comment mic made in joint training, he’s just some guy the two knew of and thats abt it. theres nothing that rly compels you to sympathize w kurogiri or understand the scope of the situation. plus, not to mention the impact extends to afo and ujiko as well? and shigaraki? and a larger part of the cast than just aizawa and mic alone (shinsou, for another ex)? , so its like... yeah . i hope they end up including parts of vigs in the upcoming season(s) too

Chapter 254 - More than anyone you should be a hero / should have been a hero

Aizawa Flashback

The three of them discuss starting a hero agency together. But then the incident happened right after that.

Shirakumo: I think we can do anything as long as we're together. Mic: No arguing about money okay guys!

They all look at Kurogiri

Mic: We were called the three idiots of Class A, I don't get why this happened! 

Gran Torino: I assume his body was taken befor being cremated and he became this crazed toy they call Nomu... there's no meaning to it, DJ.

Tsukauchi comments how the Nomu that Endeavor fought in Kyushu had a human personality.

He tells the two of them he wants them to try and awaken Shirakumo again, and Aizawa and Mic are lead to where they are monitored but can speak with Kurogiri alone.

Kurogiri is curious about Shigaraki.

Kurogiri: My mission is to take care of him.

Mic: What do you mean it's your mission to look after that brat

Kurogiri: I don't mind it, I can't leave people like that alone.

Aizawa remembers how Shirakumo picked up a stray cat and lent him his goggles to protect his eyes.

While removing his goggles Aizawa then says, "Shirakumo, if you're still in there then let's do it... let's be heroes! The three of us!"

[enigmatic-bumble]

and I'm regretting having memories

of my friends who they used to be

beside me before they left me to die.
