Today’s hot take it that some of you need to remember that fictional storytelling doesn’t need to abide by real world morality.

Y'all: ...So AFO's naked and stealing clothes from people, but Bakugo's still bleeding from that gaping hole in his chest, but that guy Edgeshot—no he's never been relevant to the plot before, don't ask stupid questions—anyway Edgeshot is gonna transformer himself into an organ and stuff himself inside a seventeen year old boy—stop what that's not weird at all—but yeah Deku's still not there. Oh, and the President of the United States of America shows up—

Me:

[misplacedgamer]

So this is going to be a very reactionary, emotional post, and I hope I’m proven wrong, but I need to talk about it.

I do not fucking understand what the point was of killing Bakugo if Deku is not the one that saves him.

And before anyone jumps down my throat, no it’s not because I’m a BKDK shopper or because I think Deku is the only person ALLOWED to save Bakugo. It’s because, unless Hori pulls some crazy ass bullshit, nothing narratively can top a pro hero literally sacrificing himself by folding into a heart to keep Bakugo alive.

The narrative has been set up from chapter 1 that Deku wants to save Bakugo with his own hands. Time and time again, Deku is either unsuccessful in rescuing Bakugo or has to have assistance (and yes I count chapter 1 as well, All Might saved them both from the sludge villain). This is the final arc, so logic would dictate that to fulfill this character arc, Deku would finally save Bakugo just like he tried to do all those years ago at the river. It sates Deku’s need to be a hero and also means Bakugo has grown enough as a person to let himself be rescued.

But now? What the fuck is gonna top this?

And why even do this now? There has to be something else going on, cause otherwise this is so frustrating. Bakugo would be miserable to find out another person essentially gave their life for him, and it would be super weird if he just walked around with Edgeshot as a heart from now on. Also, Bakugo just decided in 362 that he HAD to fight AFO even though he was injured. He basically died because the plot said so, and none of his friends were around to eve REACT to it

If THIS is all we get out of it then I’m gonna be majorly disappointed.

[teveya]

Yeah I agree, as much as I would have been sad if he had actually died, narratively Bakugo dying during that fight was so perfect, everything from the flashback to the all might card next to him was so impactful, to have edgeshot save him now makes it feel hollow…

[gentrychild]

I'm sorry but afo stealing people's clothes is one of the funniest things he could've done lol

Can you imagine the sheer psychological damage? Heroes who had to prepare themselves to the eventuality of losing their quirks or their lives and it turns out that AFO can also steal your clothes?

What the fuck do you do with your life after AFO steals your clothes on the battlefield? That's gonna be your reputation for the rest of your life.

BNHA SPOILERS!!!

Going into the final arc I was expecting some characters to die but I thought I’d be a pro hero or maybe Aizawa.. not Bakugo.. I’m honestly blindsided by his death

About the theories that he’s still alive/can be saved: as much as I hate to admit it I think he’s dead and I don’t think there’s any bringing him back. Correct me if I’m wrong but he got stabbed through the heart and I don’t think there’s any fixing that 🥴

If this is really how he died I do think it’s fitting in a way, there’s a reason the way he died hurts so bad.

Anyways I’ll be dying on the floor to recover from this… and next week the manga is on break…

[illogical-fallacy]

okay, but: what happens when we get a page in the final chapter with deku visiting the cemetery and placing a signed All Might card on the grave next to all the flowers?

i'll tell you what happens: i'm going straight off the side of the cliff.

May the fourth be with you.
